TREATMENT FOR LEAKY TEAT
Forty-Penny Spike, Rounded Off to
Point and Applied While Hot Will
Prove Effective.

Many good cows are butchered be.
cause they milk so easily that the
pressure in the udder during a big
milk flow causes the teats to leak.
Leaking teats can usually be iden-
titled by the concave depression at
ths milk opening. Hard mixers have
q convex surface around the orifce.
To stop cows teat from leaking, the
hest method l have found is to file a
40-penny spike, round off the point,
heat the end hot enough to scar, and
press it gently into the milk orifce,
says a writer.
Hold in place till the COW informs
you that you have done enough. 1t
is better to repeat the operation than
to do too much at the first trial. The
burn will nearly always cure readily
as the result of the soothing influence
of the milk, but if it is slow in healing,
grease with salve. When the scar
forms around the milk orifice, it con-
tracts the opening and prevents the
milk from leaking.

She rose unassisted, then trusted her
slender fingers to his palm. She said
nothing. The steady gaze of her ex-

Kidney Disorder
BY DIR. V. N. pIERCF1

"The most simple methods are usu-
ally the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system." The mere drinking a cup
of hot water each morning, plenty
of pure water all day, and a little
Anuric before every meal has been
found the most effective means Of
overcoming kidney trouble. Death
would occur if the kidneys did not
work day and night in separating
poisons and uric acid from the blood,
The danger signals are backache,
depreSsions, pains, heaviness. drowsi-
ness, irritability, headaches, chilli
ness, rheumatic twinges, swollen
joints or govt.
Since it is such a simple matter to
step into your favorite drug store and
obtain Anuric, anyone who earnestly
desires to regain health and new life
will waste no time in beginning this
treatment.
