ANTI-TOxIN FOR ARMIES.

One thousand horses in or near
New York City are being used to pro.
duce tetanus anti-toxin for the armies
OF Europe, according to an estimate
or D. VIM. H. Park, head of the cfty's
bacteHological laboratories. When
the war began. the board of health,
from humanitarian motives, went into
the business of making this serum,
put now that the large commercial
laboratories have developed means for
handling the industry, Dr.. Park said
today, the department has decided TO
return to its normal output.
The department has Lad transac.
TONS direct with the English and the
French governments and there were
especially large consignments sold to
the Austrian government through its
consul general in this city. The price
for liter. little more than a quart,
is s65. Not taking into account the
overhead charges and the services of
experts, for these would have to be-
kept busy anyway, the ropfits from
the sale of the tetanus anti-toxin
have been $4,000. DR.. Park esti-
mates that since the beginning of the
conflict, 100000 soldiers have re-
ce1ved injections OF the anti-toxin.

FARMsrEAo IMPROVEMENT.

The size OF farm business is not
necessarily measured or limited by
the number OF acres in farm. One
OF the field men Of the AGRICULTURAL
department, engaged in farm survey
work, reports the case of a Visions sin
farmer. so situated as to make II i'm
possible for him to buy or rent more
land, who solved the problem of small
acreage by speeding up" the 80
acres that he had.
This farmers first move was to dis
pose Of his scrub COWS and to replace
them with grades ami purebreds;
next, without great expense. he i'm
proved the sanitary condition of his
barns. He established cropping
system based On corn and alfalfa.
choosing the latter rather than clover
because on his farm It produces at
least so per cent more feed per acre
than does clover, and is much more
dependable.
Pastures have now entirely disap-
peared from this farm, because its
owner has demonstrated that one
acre Of corn and one OF alfalfa togeth-
er furnish him with more feed than
do five acres OF pasture. His i'm
proved. well-fed herd housed in a
clean, we'll lighted, and thoroughly
ventilated barn. is yielding him more
than double the milk he formerly got
from his scrub herd. Furthermore.
the quality Of the milk has improved.
and he demands and gets the price Of
a first class article.
The largely increased net income
which this farmer now receives from
the sale of milk and Of purbred cat
tie Is based on the comparatively
small changes in his type Of farming.
which have augmented hts business
without entailing any increase in the
size Of his farm.
A comparison Of this farm with 9TH
er dairy farms recently studied by the
department indicates that the example
Of this Wisconsin man might well be
followed, in general by any dairy
farmer who lives where dairy prod
ucts are high priced and who has a
low grade herd. provided he has suf-
fcient knowledge Of cattle to give
high class dairy cows the care that
they demand.

JESUS WAS NEVER SOFT"


In his Christmas sermon to boys
and girls appearing in the December
issue Of the Woman's Home Compan.
ion. the Rev. DR.. Charles E. Jefferson
OF the Broadway Tabernacle says:
According to the gospels, Jesus
was wonderful man, and the most
wonderful thing about Him was His
strength. 1t was His power which
caused his fellow men to stare and
wonder. He was so strong that he
drew great crowds to Him as though
he were a magnet. He did things
which no one else could do. Even His
words had something in them not to
be found in the words of any other
teacher They drove men to do things
they had never done before. Even the
glance of His eyes was wonderful.
One night when some men came to
arrest Him, He simply turned His
eyes on them. and they were so
frightened they fell backward to the
ground. Because Jesus was
gentle and tender we must not imag.
inc He was soft"
