Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
ery in the kidney region; rheumatic twin-
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid-
neys aren't elating right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
:Tad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous

Methods of Keeping Cow Records.
Four things are necessary for keep-
ing cow records:
1. •A monthly milk sheet, ruled so
that there shall be a column for re-
cording the weight of the morning
and evening milking of each cow for
each day of the month, though some
use a sheet ruled for three days -only,
and estimate the weight of milk given
for the month from these three days, -
which may be consecutive, or on the
first, tenth and twentieth of the
month, making ten-day beriods be-
tween. The Ontario Department of
Agriculture, Toronto, will furnish
(free) monthly milk record sheets
to those interested.
2. A milk scale —preferably one
having a dial face and two hands, one
of which shows the net weight of
Milk in the pail, when properly set.
This scale costs about five dollars.
3. A four to eight bottle Babcock
test, where it is desired to know what
each cow's milk tests in fat. This
will cost from eight to twelve dollars
complete. (If a member of a cow -
testing association or convenient to
a creamery or cheese factory, ar-
rangements can usually be made to
test the samples, hence the tester is
not needed, but a progressive dairy-
man should have his own testing out-
fit and use it.)
4. The fourth and most important
requirement is "The -will -to-do."
Without this, milk sheets, scales,
testers, etc., are valueless. By having
scale, sheet, pencil, sample bottles
properly labelled, eta, all convenient-
ly arranged, it takes but little time
to keep a record of each milking cow
in the herd.,
We would add a fifth need, which
is some form of permanent record
book for monthly totals and tests, as
milk sheets, and notes or records of
testing, are likely to be lost and not
available for reference, But if these
are recorded once a month in a per-
manent form, they will prove a source
of help in breeding, feeding and
weedie.g dairy eowS. -- Prof. IL H.
