TEXAS FEVER.
A Remedy For the Deadly Disease Given
by an Experienced Dairyman.
The following report will be of inter¬
est to all dairymen and cattle owners: .
j Experiment, Ga., April 18, 1896.
Commissioner Nesbitt, Atlanta, Ga.:
Dear Sir—A t your request, through
Director Redding of the Experiment
Station, I visited the farm of Mr. S. H.
Phelan near Greensboro, Ga., to inspect
his herd of dairy cows, which were re¬
ported to he dying. I found them dying
with Texas fever, called also in differ¬
ent sections, Spanish fever, acclima
tion fever, redwater, blaekwater, mur¬
rain, yellow murrain and bloody mur¬
rain. Twenty-one head of valuable
registered Jerseys had died. Normal
temperature is 101 to 102 degrees, in this
disease it rises to 107 to 109 degrees, and
nearly every case is fatal when the ani¬
mal is grown or matured.
The best up-to-date remedy is calomel
quickly given in two drachm doses, to
move the bowels; then follow with
• quinine in 30 grain doses, three times a
day, until improvement begins, then
give iodide of iron in two drachm doses
twice a day.
A post mortem examination of a cow
that had died the night previous to my
arrival, showed the spleen or melt to be
much larger than in healthy animals;
the liver also was enlarged; the gall
bladder was also enlarged and held in
suspension a large quantity of flakes
resembling coarse bran. (The bile in
health is a limpid fluid, containing from no
solid particles.) The urine of taken
the bladder was the color port wine
or deep claret.
i All of the sick cows previous to Nov.
18, 1895, were kept near Atlanta and
had never had any ticks on them.
{About April 1, 1896, they were turned kept
to pasture with cows that had been
on the plantation. In about ten days
they were all well covered with ticks,
and the cows from Atlanta began to get
thing sick and die. I could not discover any¬
wrong in the feeding or manage¬
ment. (Overfeeding of highly concen¬
trated food—especially cottonseed meal
—will bring on a bloody condition of the
jnriue, but remove the cause and the an¬
imal generally Phelan recovers.) I suggested
[to Mr. that he use in future the
well tried preventative of Mr. Chopin,
of Richmond, Va., who has imported
Oowh from all quarters of the globe to
the infected lands of Virginia and follow¬ has
never lost a single head. The
ing is his preventative:
j 00 pounds Common salt,
5 pounds Ooperas,
| 5 pounds Saltpetre,
5 pounds Sulphur.
Thoroughly tabiespoonful pulverize and mix and
give one once per day in
the feod, long enough to get the remedy
into the system.
Samples of urine and gall were taken
and sent to Dr. D. E. Salmon, Chief of
Bureau of Animal Industry, Washing¬
ton, D. C., and he has pronounced my
j diagnosis correct,
Respectfully yours,
H. J. Wing, Dairyman,

Eradicating Nut Gras*.
i From College Station, Tex, comes
this advice : Do not let the seed ma¬
ture. Stir the soil frequently during
the growing period. The best time to
fight both is between midsummer and
frost during a dry time. Ohoke it out
with a vigorous growing the erop. After
one crop is harvested in summer
prepare the land immediately for an¬
other vigorous growing good crop. Oowpeas
and sorghum are crops for south¬
ern localities to choke ont these pests.

WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.
Last week I cleared, after pay¬
ing- all expenses, $355.85, the
month previous $260 and have at
the same time attended to other
duties, I believe any energetic
person can do equally as well, as
I have had very little experience.
The Dish Washer is just lovely
and every family wants one,
which make selling very easy. I
do no canvassing. People bear
about the Dish Washer and come
or send for one. It is strange
that a good, cheap Dish Washer
has never before been put on the
market. The Mound City Dish
Washer fills this bill. With it
you can wash and dry the dishes
for a family of ten in two minutes
without wetting your hands. As
soon as pe.pie see the Washer
work they want one. You can
make money and make it quicker
than with any houshold article on
the market. I feel convinced that
any lady or gentleman can make
from $10 to 14 per day around
home. You can get full parti¬
culars by addressing, The Mound
City Dish liaslaer Co., St. Louis,
Mo. They help you get started,
then you can make money awful
fast. A. L. C.
Guard Against Hog Cholera.
Proper sanitation, food and good care
may ward off the cholera. In localities
where cholera appeared last summer and
fall new hog lots ought to be provided,
and the animals should not be allowed
to run in pastures which were fre¬
quented by diseased stock. Lots can
usually be moved at comparatively
small expense. Unless precautions of
this kind are taken, another outbreak
may occur at any time.
Money Made In a Minute.
I have not made less than sixteen dallars
any dav while selling Centrifugal Ice Cream
Freezers. Anyone should make from five to
eight dollars a day selling cream and from
seven to ten dollars selling freeze] s, as it is
such a wonder there is always a crowd want¬
ing cream. You can freeze cream elegantly
in one minute and that astonishes people so
they all want to taste it and then many of
them buy freezers as the cream is smooth
and perfectly frozen. Every freezer is guar¬
anteed to freeze cream perfectly in one min¬
ute, Anyone can sed ice cream, the freezer
sells itself. My sister makes from ten to fif¬
teen dollarsa day. J, F, Casey & Co, 1143 SR
Charles St„ St Louis, Mo, will send full par¬
ticulars free, so you can go to work and
make lots of money anywhere, as with one
freezer you can make a hundred gallons of
ersam a day, or if you wish they will hire you
on a salary.

SOME GOOD ADVICE.
Practical and Useful Maxims For Farmers
Who Are Just Starting Out.
Many young farmers do not know
when they are really doing well, and
frequently when they have made a
good start and are in a fair way to dis¬
tinguish themselves as excellent and
successful farmers, will “sell out.”
This is all wrong. Stick to your farm,
and if you have a good location do not
sell out expecting to better it because
you are offered a good price. If your
neighbor can make farming pay on
your farm resolve that you can do it as
well as he can. Plan a system of im¬
provement, and as your means warrant,
carry this system out. Do not enter in¬
to any speculation, either with other
people’s money or your own. Do not
mortgage your farm to buy goods. Do
not buy fancy stock at enormous prices,
without knowing how you will make
the investment profitable. Do not keep
poor stock when you can keep good at
the same expense and with twice the
profit. Do not be tempted by high
prices to plant excessively of any
one crop. Ten chances to one the price
of that crop will be low at harvest time,
while the price of the crops you neg¬
lected will be high. Do not try to grow
crops for which your farm is not
adapted. Resolve (and stick to it) that
if industry and good management will
make it so, your farm shall be a profita¬
ble one. Put your surplus earnings into
such improvements as will add to the
. profit, appearance and convenience of
your farm. Make experiments, despite
what your neighbors may say. Make
yourselves thoroughly of agriculture acquainted and with be
the principles beep
guided by them. Do not more
stock than you have pasture for. If you
own more land than you can cultivate
well, are in debt, or need money to
make necessary improvements, sell part
of your land and use the money to
pay your debts or make your improve¬
ments.—Exchange.
