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, Experiment, Ga. An Old Doctors Favorite. Dr. L. M. Gillam, who practic¬ ed medicine over forty years, o riginafced, used and claimed that Botanic Blood Balm, (B.B.B.) which has now been in use about fifty five years, was the best tonic ana blood purifier ever geven to the world. It never fails to cure the most maliguant catarrh ulcers, and all sores, skin rheumatism, Beware of and blood diseases. substitutes. Use this standard remedy.

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.

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.
