TREATING COWS FOR GARGET
Afflicted Animals Should Be MIXED
ReouIarly-Hands Of Mixer
Should BE Washed.

Cows that are subject to garget
should be MIXED regularly and clean.
In some cases it may be advisable to
milk oftener than twice a day. The
hands of the mixer should be washed
after milking COW that is affected
with garget before milking another
COW, to prevent carrying the germs
The practice of milking out an af.
fected COW on the ground is bad one
for the germs are spread in this way
to other cows.

MIRACLE OF THE THORN STAFF
Pretty Legend of Ancient Britain
That Is Often Repeated in Eng
land at Christmas Time.

1t is one of the prettiest legends OF
ancient Britain-the old Christmas
story of the thorn of Glastonbury.
William of Malmesbury, the chronicler,
| told it hundreds of years ago in his
Antiques of Glastonbury 1t is re-
peated often at Christmas time in
England
The legend tells how Joseph OF Ari-
mathea, was so prosecuted by Pontius
Plate. because he had laid away the
body of Christ in his sepulcher, that
he fled to Gaul, carrying with him I'M
der cloth of mystical white samite,
the Holy Grail. In Gaul he found the
Apostle Philip, preaching to the heath
en-, and he rested with him few days.
One night radiant light awakened
him, and an angel babe him 60 to
Britain and preach the glad tidings to
King ArvigatIus and, where Christ
mas miracle should come to pass,
there to build a church.
He and band of followers fol-
lowed the instructions of the angel,
and Arvigatrus gave them the Isle of
Avalon, and babe them erect an altar
there to the new God. 1t was a beau
tiful gift. The tiny isle lay warm in
verdant valley. Sparkling waves
softly Tapped it's shore. Soft breezes
played in it's trees, and nowhere was
the sky so blue as over Avalon.
When they reached the top Of the
hill called Weary All, Joseph planted
his thorn staff he had carried with
him on his long journeys over land
and sea, deep into the ground, and 10
1t took root, and Immediately there
bIossomed bush of beautiful white
flowers.
''This is where we will build our
the good man said, and so,
at Glastonbury Abbey-for SO Avalon |
Is known today-the thorn bushes
bloom white at each Christmas time,
end their fragrance to the frosty air,
md remind all who see them Of the
Christmas miracle. !
