FIRST THOUGHTS OF MEDICINE
TIlers of the Soil Believed to Have Originated Primal Ideas That
 Have Grown.

It is of romance that the primal hus- bandman or shepherd conceived of philosophy of medicine while plying spade or keeping the flocks; that, till ing and sowing in the ground, or sit ting at mountains foot, a keeper and commander of poor beasts" man became contemplative of the universe that framed his small body and, by consequence, thought upon his own body that held his spirit.
 Analogies were suggested of earth and dust with flesh, of stones and rocks with bones.
 Then came considerations of the constitution and process of greater na- ture and the application of both to hu- man and lesser nature.
 As men perceived the action of the four primary elements in the body of the world and marked that it was by their proportionable agreement that harmony prevailed therein, so they i'm agined that the four elemental quail ties, viz, heat, cold, dryness, mois- ture, were to be recognized and brought into harmony in their human bodies.

Restorind Fatiqued Muscles,

very ingenious physiological method of increasing the yield of la Dor from any given group of muscles is described in the Deutsche Revue. According to an abstract in Die Um- schau the author, Tn. Weber, claims that in practice a gain of from 22 to 40 per cent is obtaiIable in the amount of work done The device is extremely simple. When the given group of muscles has reached the point of exhaustion, due to the ac emulation of the products of fatigue, they are allowed to rest, while an en- tirely different muscle group is set to work vigorously. The energetic con- traction of these muscles causes an increase in heart action and circula- tion, and the strengthened current of blood thus sent to all parts of the body partially restores the working power of the first group of muscles by carrying away fatigue toxins and supplying oxygen.

MOTH PROVES ITS SHARPNESS
English Pest Has Found a Way to Foil Defensive Efforts of Fruit
 Growers.

England's winter moth is one of the greatest pests with which the fruit growers of that country have to contend. It begins to appear in Octo- Der, and the female, whose wings are very short and quite unadapted to flight, climbs the trunks of the fruit trees and deposits her eggs. These hatch out in the spring, and the cater pillars soon devour the young leaves. Heretofore it has been comparatively easy to combat the ravages of the pest. Seeing that the female is un- able to fly, fruit growers place bands of a sticky substance around each tree. The female, in climbing the trunks, comes to the band and is held fast.
 But wonderful thing has happened, says the Manchester (England) Guard ian. In recent years the female moth has been found from time to time above the band, and how she got there was mystery. Finally, how ever, an entomo,ogist expert unveiled it. He saw the male and female moths together above the band on the tree-the male evidently having just deposited the female.
 There appears to be little doubt, adds the Manchester Guardian, that in this we have a remarkable adapta- tion to circumstances. The female cannot fly, but the male can, and it would seem that he had flown to the higher part of the tree, carrying his wife upon his back. This is one of the most striking discoveries in nat ural history and is creating much in- terest among nature students.

 If you can get 10 or 11-inch iron sheave, or pulley wheel, at your hard ware store, it will make a splendid barrow wheel. A 10-inch carriage bolt, tive-eighths inch in diameter, and a couple of iron washers, will be needed for mounting the wheel
 The space between the wheel ends of the handle-bars is much wider than necessary for the wheel, and must be taken care of by spiking a block (F Figs. and 5 to each bar. This pair

Eoretold bv Oil.

Among the Kherrias of India there is very curious marriage ceremony. Taking a portion of the hair of the bride and bridegroom in turn from the center of the forehead, the priest draws it down on to the bridge of the nose. Then, pouring oil on the head, he watches it carefully as it trickles down the portion of hair. If the oil runs straight on to the tip of their nose their future will be fortunate, but if it spreads over the forehead or trickles off on either side of the nose, ill luck is sure to follow. Their fortunes told, generally to their own satisfaction, the final part of the cere- mony takes place. Standing up side by side, but with faces strictly avert ed. the bride and bridegroom mark each others forehead with "sindar" (yermilion).

 A grass pasture adjoining the sta bles is a great convenience. The stock may be turned in when the sod is dry and the weather suitable; they will get the exercise they need and will keep warm by grazing, Most stockmen provide winter as we'll as summer pasture for their stock.
 The driving horses, if used on icy roads, should have shoes sharpened. It is dangerous to drive a smooth horse when the road is icy. The wear and tear of the nervous strain takes too much out of horse, if n~.hing more serious happens.
 Chain overshoes can be had at the agricultural stores. Keep pair on hand to use in case of a sudden freeze.
 Give the horses judicious feed, daily exercise and good grooming. When this is done the horses usefulness may be extended for a number of years

TREATING SHEEP FOR WORMS
Pests May Be combatted by Pasture Rotation, Combined With Drugs
 Injurious to Insects.

The stomach worm is the worst pest affecting sheep. Lambs are more susceptible than older sheep, prob ably because the older sheep arc ac- customed to the presence of the worm. In the spring soon after lambing, the old sheep should each receive a dose of one or two ounces of gasoline, fol- lowed by a small dose of epsom salts. After a day or two they should be placed in worm-free pasture, if pos sible.
 In July treat the whole herd, includ- ing the lambs, with gasoline, and turn them into new pasture, and repeat the process in November. Pasture rota- tion, combined with drugs that are in- furious to the worm, is a practical method of successfully combating this worm.

ERADICATE LICE ON CATTLE
Frequently Serious Pest on Stock in Winter-Any of Various Dips
 Are Quite Effective.

Lice on cattle and young stock are frequently a serious pest in winter Any of the various dips advertised or sold for this purpose are effective. They can be put on with a sponge or brush and worked in thoroughly to the skin. but it is not always safe to wet an animal all over in cold weath- CT.
 Kerosene and lard rubbed in from horns to the tail is a safe and sure remedy. An even better one is to use powdered sulphur. Rub it in well with the hand and repeat in two weeks. There is no danger from using this

KEEP HORSES IN GOOD ORDER
Slim Economy to Permit Animals to Fall Off In Flesh-Oats and
 Corn Are Best Grains.

It is poor economy to let the horses fall off in flesh by reducing the grain. Horses cannot be kept in good order on straw and a poor quality of hay. They need little grain, even if they are idle. To have the horses strong for spring blowing, narrowing and other heavy and exhaustive work, they must be kept thrifty and in good flesh all through the winter. Oats and corn and bran are the best grains
