Uric Acid is Slow Poison

Unseen in its approach, hard to de-
tect in it's early stages, and cruelty
painful in its later forms, uric acid
poisoning is a disease too often fatal.
Bright's disease is one Of the final
stages Of uric acid poisoning. 1t kills
In our country every year more men
and women than any other ailment
except two-consumption and pneu.
monia. Bright's disease and uric acid
poisoning usually start in some kidney
weakness that would not be hard to
cure, If discovered early, SO it is well
to know the early signs of kidney dis.
ease and uric poisoning.
When uric acid Is formed too fast
and the kidneys are weakened by a
cold, or fever, by overwork, or by over
indulgences, the acid collects, the blood
gets impure and heavy, there is head
ache, dizziness, heart palpitation, and
dull, heavy-headed, drowsy feeling
with disturbances Of the urine.
Real torture begins when the uric
acid forms into gravel or stone in the
kidney, or crystallizes into jagged bits
in the muscles, joints or on the nerve
tubings. Then follow the awful pains
Of neuralgia, rheumatism, govt, sciat'
lea, neuritis, lumbago or kidney collie

BIG LOSS TO THE DAIRYMAN
Total Of $4,000 600 Lost Annually In
United States Through Low Mols-
ture Content of Butter.
Copyright. 1914.)

(By A. A. BORLAND. State Agricultural
College. Burlington, Vt)
Fourteen million dollars are annual
ly lost to dairy interests in the United
States through the low moisture con-
tent of butter. The maximum legal
amount is 16 per cent; the average
for the United States is only 115 per
cent. An additional 3.5 per cent.
might be added, making the water
content Is per cent, without exceed
ing the legal limit and without de-
terioration in quality of the product.
Now, how can the moisture content or
butter be controlled? There are many
factors influencing moisture content
Of butter, but the two most important
are the churning temperature and the
amount of working.
Churning temperature Is OF funda-
mental Importance. During fall and
winter, when moisture content OF but
ter is low, temperature Of churning
should be as high as is consistent with
securing product firm enough for
handling. Experiments conducted un-
der direction Of the writer showed an
increase OF two per cent. in water con-
tent of butter churned at 20 degrees
r. as compared with so degrees +.
That churned at so degrees F. aver
aged 1873 per cent. moisture; that at
60 degrees F. averaged 14.4 per cent:
that at 65 degrees F. averaged 14.9
per cent; that at 70 degrees f. aver
aged 1871 per cent. Churning should
stop when butter granules are the size
OF corn grains. The temperature Of
wash water should be near that Of
buttermilk, although If high churning
temperatures are employed wash wa
ter few degrees lower tends to firm
butter. Vice versa, In springtime,
when per cent. of water in butter ex-
ceeds the legal limit, cream should be
churned at as low temperature as pos
sible without prolonging the time Of
churning, thus causing butter to be
salyy.
The amount of working has consid-
cradle influence on per cent. OF mois-
ture in the finished product. When
butter Is worked in absence of water,
moisture content decreases rapidly as
amount Of working increases, but II
butter is worked in presence of wa
ter moisture content increases with
amount OF working. Consequently il
high percentage of water is desired
butter should receive minimum
amount of working sufficing to distrib-
ute salt evenly when no water is pres
If water is present. Care should be
exercised at all times not to overwork

CLEVER WIFE

It Is quite significant, the number Of
persons who get well Of alarming

fee and use Postum as the beverage at

There Is nothing surprising about 1t.
however, because the harmful alkaloid
-caffeine-in coffee Is not present in
Postum, which is made Of clean, hard
wheat.
1.-TWO years ago / was having so
much trouble with my heart" writes
q lady in Washington, that at times
/ felt quite alarmed. My husband took
me to specialist to have my heart
examined.
1.-The doctor said he could find no
organic trouble but said my heart was
irritable from something I had been
accustomed to, and asked me to try
and remember what disagreed with
me.
II remembered that coffee always
soured on my stomach and caused me
trouble from palpitation of the heart.
So stopped coffee and began to use
Postum. have had no further
trouble since.
"a neighbor of ours, an old man,
was so irritable from drinking coffee
that his wife wanted him to drink
Postum. This made him very angry,
but his wife secured some Postum and
made 1t carefully according to direc-
tons.
HE drank the Postum and did not
know the difference, and Is still using

CORN CAN BE GROWN
ON CANADIAN PRAIRIES

Manitoba Is now commencing to
produce considerable corn, chiefly for
feeding purposes. In some cases.
where the crop can be matured into
the dough stage, silos could be used
and would be a profitable investment.
According to the Farm and Ranch Re.
view, correspondent visited field
of corn in southern Manitoba on Sep
TENDER 2s. The corn then was un-
touched by frost and 1t stood on an
average eight and nine feet in height.
The corn had developed into tho
dough stage, and the crop would easily
exceed 20 tons to the acre. At many
experimental farms, the same favor.
able showing of the corn crop has
manifested itself. At the Brandon ex-
perimental farm this year several va
rieties, all very good yielders. matured
into good silo corn.
Considering the success with which
corn can be produced, and the advan-
tages to be gained by SO producing it,
should not it receive the serious at
tention of the western agriculturist?
Corn is successfully grown in the
northern part of Minnesota in SINH
lar soil and under the same climatic
condition, and there does not appear
to be any reason why like results
should not be secured in western Can
ada. 1t is the opinion of many Ameri-
can farmers of experience that the
corn belt is extending northward. The
prairie provinces must gradually take
up with mixed farming. Moro stock
on the farms must be raised. and in
consequence farming must to some
extent be diverted from grain growing
to other necessary crops. If crops
suitable for wintering cattle and espe-
cially dairy stock are to be grown,
why should not corn be one of these
crops? In Ontario and in the United
States we find it forms the main bulky
food for wintering beef and dairy cat
tie. They would not be without this
profitable plant. In fact, since its in
PRODUCTION almost twice as much stock
can be retained on the same amount
of land, besides considering it's great
value for keeping the land clean.
Some may say that many crops that
can be grown in Ontario and the
States cannot be grown here, but not
SO with corn, even now we find scat
tered fields of corn In Alberta and

Cooling Fresh Milk.

When milk Is allowed to cool natur.
ally, It will sour in much quicker
time than II cooled after being drawn
from the COW. The longer the time
which elapses between the milking
and refrigerating, the shorter will be
the keeping properties of the milk
after 1t is cooled. This Is accounted
for by the fact that milk is soured by
bacteria. and they grow in warm milk

That the State street department

taught last year when for the first
time they were prosecuted for viola
ton of law limiting the hours of
women's labor is the statement Of
Oscar F. Nelson, factory inspector.
''The stores that will keep open

submitted their schedules to me-"
Mr.. Nelson said. eff they follow
those schedules women will not work
more than ten hours day. 1 will

State street to check up the time
women leave the stores at night.
"Rothschild & Co. had split
schedule under which they work
some girls from 8:15 to 100 and
then from through the evening.
81 informed them that they would,
have to ascertain whether these
girls worked anywhere else during
the afternoon and if it was found
that they did Rothschild's would be
guilty of violation of the law which
expressly states that no employer
shall suffer or permit females to
work more than ten hours in any one
day. -...-.
''If the law was not specific on this
it would be an easy matter for candy
manufacturers to work girls all day
and exchange them in the evening

amended so as to specifically state
during what hours women may work

himself as link and only link! The
captain Of engineers forgot Marta's ex-

the axmen to cut closer to the ground,
as stumps gave cover for rifemen. For
the time being he had no more interest
In the knoll than in the wreckage of
the dirigibles which were down and
out OF the fight.
After all, the knoll was only single

story Of two regiments, and particu-
iariy Of two companies, and that Ia
story enough. II you would grasp the
whole, multiply the conflict on the
knoll by ten thousand.
There had been the engrossment
Of transcendent emotion in repelling
the charge. What followed was like
some grim and passionless trance with
triggers ticking off the slow-passing
minutes. Dellarme aimed to keep
down the fusillade from Fracasse's
trench and yet not to neglect the fair
targets of the reserves advancing by
rushes to the support of the 12Sth.
Reinforced, the gray streak at the bot
tom Of the slope poured in a heavier
flre. Above the steady crackle of bull
lets sent and the whistle of bullets re-
ceived rose the cry of Doctor! Doc
tori" which meant each time that an
other Brown rife had been silenced.
The litter bearers, hard pressed to re-
move the wounded, left the dead. Al
ready death was a familiar sight-an
article of exchange In which Del
larme's men dealt freely. The man
at Stransky's side had been killed out
right. He lay face down on his rife
stock. His cap had fallen off. Stran-
sky put 1t back on the mans head,
and the example was followed in other
cases. 1t was a good idea to keep up
