DAIRY ANIMALS TOO COSTLY
IR/USW)!
On Probably the majority of dall'Y
farstur en the east the eows are kept in-
doore the yes.rr mind, In. former Year.
«awls a ;nettled would hay bean oensid-
ered cows were thea pass
tured. It bas become a, question wheth-
er the present-daY manner le advisable
or not. Are dairy animals too closely
housed Is not tine continuoue lioueing
a reason why tuebrouloeis in cattle Is so
Much in evidence?
On title subject Dr. Henry Favil, of
Chit:ago, Ill., a prominent w,oetern
phy-
stQIth. tend also the owner awl opedator
of a large daily farm, eels that, realiz-
ing that porfOrmance is the ultimate pur-
pose of the dairy cuw and bendnng every
effort to develop this oharaeterletic,
breeders of dairy cattle have, eometimes
allowed themelves to become sdinewliat
one -Meted in the direction (if milk and
butter at production.
While granting that performance is the
ultimate purpose of a dairy (tow, he Is
convinced that there Its a tnpe which
carries with it not only the beat per.
formance, but the best physique as welt.
.A. Moral objectien, he believes, rests
upon breeders of pure blood cattle to
eteadfastly fight for type, not an a mere
eethetio achievement, but an leaving a
fundamental relationship to performance.
Admitting, as we mien the menace to
the dairy industry of tuboreuloels, to
•say nothing of other infectious disease's;
halting along unsatiefactorily as we do
with the tuberculin test and its weeding -
out method, can we cloee our eyes to the
fact that eatety in this situatioe Iles in
the developmeat of a vital reelatance and
that particularly in the earliest menthe
�t life?
So far as concerns tuberculoeis, it le
beyond question that the streng, Wells
developed animal, with large long pewee,
Seebitually used, is more resistant to
tuberculosis than the feeble and delicate.
There is, however, no such thing. as ab-
solute immunity, and any animal too
constantly subjected to infection is liable
to become tuberculosis.
There is no question that there is less
Infectious material outside the barn than
within it. When we stop to coosider,
therefore, the highly stimulated resist-
ance on the one hand and the less ex-
posure to infection that there ie in the
open air on the other, can we avoid tho
conclusion that our animals, and particu-
larly our younger animals are safer in
open air than they are in the barn?
• wo adopt that as a fundamental
principle, there remains for us the pro-
blem of fitting this principle into our
Slcheme of operation. There Is no doubt,
for exatriple, that calves can be kept
looking better in the stable than In the
°Pen air during certain seasons of the
year. There Is no doubt that the attack
of files upon young stock hampers its
developmeat. There Is no doubt that ex-
posure to cold roughens their general
contlitien and appearance. It takes
more food to keep them In -condition in
()Pen air than in steble life.
Have we not to accept these disadven-
taees immesliately 4/byline and ragged
tonne as far mere than oftset by the ad -
Vantage not so iinmediate not so ObVtous•
but none the less poseible as to develop-
ment, constitution and resistance to dis-
ease, which our intelligence teaches us
'really pertains?
At farmers we are altogether too prone
no follow the line Of least resistanee, and
be line of least resistance is the old
tense' of a six to twelve months' sentence
to more or less solitary cOntineznent.
Have we not to use our ingenuity in
Coaling with the problem before see can
have reasonable assurance of the vital-
ity of our stock to come?
It Ilan been suggested that °antes...at
breeding from tuberculous cattle, a,volds
Ina 'infection of the calves, would pro-
duce a race of animals immune cram
tuberculosis. It certainly, however, is
as likely to be true as the reverse, nettle-
ly: the production of more susceptible
animals. There Is no reason, therefore,
so far ns we know, why we should not
tee.
In spite of the fact that In the case et
judiciously breed from tuberculous eat -
the modern highly developed dairy cow
W1 are dealing with a most unnatural
.proauct, there is no reason to suppose
that the factors determining life and
constitution have not a true and funda-
mental relation to natural conditions of
existence. The question then always is,
to what extent the unnatural develOp-
enent of the milk function and the nidus -
try built upon it necessitates iinnatural
conditions of Jiving for the aiiimale?
y And the principle should be to ()raw the
line as close to natural coin:Miens ass the
industry will permit. In so doing there
is opportunity for exercise of the beet
-judgment, but the tendency of dairying
is to draw the line at convenienee slather
than at the paint of blithest health ad-
vantaee.

PRISON EXHIBIT.
England Will Show Penal System
at Ghent.
Tile modern science- of prison. man-
agement is to be demonstrated by the
Board of Trade at their special dis-
play, which will be a feature of the
Ghent international exhibition next
year.
Every side ef prison life will be il-
lustrated, and there is to be a seriee
of life-size models of convicts engaged
In prison tasks, and exact replicas of
the cells for the various classes of pri-
soners.
A number of the models have been
specially made in prison. One is a
model of the old-fashioned convict
cells known as iron cells from the
fact that they were constructed of
corrugated iron. The last of these
has recently been destroyed.
There will be an interesting dis-
play of articles which have been man-
ufactured surreptitiously by con-victs,
either for amusement or in the, hope
of escape. Small models moulded out
of bread and then colored with black-
ening and whitewash are often made.
Skeleton keys carved from beef bones
to open the cell doors are among the
ingenious pieces of work which have
been found, and will be included in
the display.
The last stage in the work of the.
prison authorities is the preventive de-
tention of habitual eriminale, and this
will be shown by a model, twelve feet
by eight, of the new prison at Carlin
Hill, in he Isle of Wight, for this class
of prisoners.—London Tit-131ts.

"THE DEMON OF RUSH."
(Philadelphia Record)
A clergyman In East Orange, N. J.,
Is lamenting the "denton.of rush," which
he says is abroad in the land, but if any
of his parishioners should be led by him
to offer opposition to it they would be
only run over. The demon of rush is not
to be exorcised by a parish letter, and
people who do not join its rapid process-
ion will be left by the roadside, The
modern world is "so tan of a number
of things" that we cannot devote as much
attention to each as our ancestors did
to a few things that pressed upon their
attention. The effects of rushing are
net nearly to disastroos as they Ar6 of-
ten represented to be. Railroads kill a
smaller percentage of trevellers than
stage coaches did, and on an average nea
are healthier and live longer than our
grandparents did.

THE INDIAN SHAWL.

Parisian Women Have Made it the
Mode.
Parisian women are wearied at the
profusion of fine furs to be met with
at every at home, every afternoen tea
and even at every street corner, aria
having sighed for a simpler life with
dresses to match, they looked about
them and found the required material
on their planose
It is not really a simple material, VW;
at best it is not fur. The Indian
shawl—this is the simple material
aforesaid—is in fact far more ex-
pensive than many furs which make a
brave show at a comparatively moder-
ate cost; but its value does not clamor
for recognition as loudly as dees an
obviously expensive bit of sable,
It is no long since the Indian Shawl
was last fashionable that most women
have forgotten its substantial value.
Except to the knowing nothing in the
way of drt,se ever looked lest like
pricelessness than the Indian ehawls
whieh after draping the shoulders of
the smart women of long ago were
relegated to the backs of pianos.

1One of the Strongest proofs of the

' the affection... -se* which they cling
to the old Gaelic tongue with a.11 of its

Haskin in the Schenectady Gazette.
Notwithstanding the fact that English
supremacy made that language official
upon the Emerald Isle there have been
few families who have not in their own
circle lapsed frequently into the use of
some old Gaelic expressions. The
number of native Gaelic speakers in
Ireland, according to the last census,
was 180,000 or about one-seventh of
the population. Many of these never
hayed learned to speak English and
those who have still used the older
tongue upon every possible occasion.
It is estimated that there are now in

the front of my leg. I thought. this
would heel, but instead of doing so it de-
veloped into a bad ulcer and, later into
a form of eczema which spread vat/
rapidly and also started on the other
leg. Both legs became so swollen and
sore that I could only go about My work
by .haviug them bandaged. My doc-
tor said 1 must stop work and lay .up.
"After six months of this trouble, I
eqnsulted another doctor, but with no
better result. 1 tried all the salves, lini-
ments and lotions 1 heard of, but instead
of getting better I got worse.
"This was xny eondition when I got
my first box of Zain-Buk. Greatly to
my delight that first box gave me relief.
1 eontinued to apply it to the sores,
and day by day they got better. I
could eee that at la.st I had got hold of

A recent report from Philadelphia
says that twenty-nine boys, inmates of
the St. Francis Industrial Sehool at Ed-
ington, Pa., were operated upon for ap-
pendicitis within the past ten days. Six-
teen appendectomies were performed, in
one day, and. the others at intervals in
the succeeding nine days. The cause of
the epidemic, according to the same re-
port, was the overeating of cheese. Do
cheese and appendicitis go together?
The new Grand - Central station at
New York has been in course of erection
for quite a. number of yeare. It is said
to be one of the greatest achievements
in American railroad history. in elabor-
ate conveniences and architectural bean-
ty, the new etructure is a marvel. In
the preparations for handling the 000
trains daily and. in the overcoming of
enormous engineering difficulties the
highest ability and boldness have been
exercised. Altogether the new enter-
prise is a, eredit to those who conceived
it and carried it through to perfection.
New York now bas two of the largest,
handsomeet and most perfect passenger
terminals in the world, Probably no
city contains two such stations as the
'Grand Central and the Pennsylvania in
New York.

that the more prosperous a eonntry is

the issue of Jfinuary 15, 1913, that alco-

greatly on the increase in France, the
latter two as direct consequences; of the
