lampas in horses.
A}<-orrespondeni of ihe New York Spirit of
the 'limes inquires as to the burning for the
lampas, and wr.iihor that was the only cure
for it. With the hope that we may perhaps
save one horse from the unnecessary and
terrible torture of the burning.iron, we under
take to reply: Burning for the lampas is as
good and humane a remedy as is suffocation
between two feather beds for hydrophobia—
both have been practised by the ignorant, and
both are effectual. The horse, to be sure,
survives the infliction, while the feather-bed
patient is bound to die. Both of these barba
rous remedies (?) have long been discarded by
civilized and intelligent men. We haveocca
sionally had cases of this complaint in our
stable, and have always attributed it to over
feeding. But in no single case, however bad,
within our knowledge and experienca, has it
resisted a course of bran mashes, continued
for n day or two ; with Ihe addition, in one or
two instances, of a purgative of salts or aloes.
(The first thought our farm hands always wan,
to take Ihe animal to Ihe black-smith’s to be
burned.) Youail says ;—“The bars occa
sionally swell and rise to a level with, and
even beyond, the edge of the teeth. They are
very sore, and the horse feeds badly on ac
count of the pain he suffers from the pressure
of the food on lh-m, This is called the lam
pas. It may arise from imflammalion of the
gums, propagated to the bars, when the horse
is sheJdiuj; bis teeth—and young horses are
more subject to it than others —orfrom some
febrile tendency generally ; as when a young
horse has been lately taken up from grass,
and has been over-fed and not sufficiently ex
ercised. At times, it appears in aged horses;
for the progress of growth in the teeih of the
horse is con'inucd during the whole life of the
animal. In a majority of cases, the swelling
will soon subside without medical treatment,
or a lew mashes and gentle alteratives will
relieve the animat — A few slight incisions
across the bars wilh a lancet or penknife will
relieve the itiffumadon and cause the swelling
to subside; indeed this scarification of the bars
in lampas will seldom harm, although it is fur
from beni2 so necessary as is supposed. The
brutal ciivtom of the farrier, who sears and
burns down me bars wilh red-hot iron, is most
objectionable. It is torturing the horse to
no purpose, and rendering that part callous, on
the delicate sensibility of which all the safely
and pleasure t/ riding and driving depend,
h may be prudent, in case of lampas, to ex
amine Ihe grinders, and more particularly the
lushes, in order to ascertain whether either of
then is making its way through the gums.
1; isso. two incisions across each other should
be made on llto loom, and the horse will ex
perience immediate relief ’’ In lancing Ihe
turn lor a cominir tooth, it is much better to
nicK the gum at the side rather than upon the
edge above me advancing leeih. This is
praciscd with vounsr children by most physi
can- Anv one troubled wilh a tender and
swollen instep can comprehend the rationale
of mo If lie cuts his bont upon the point of
pre.stire. he finds the loot puffing up more and
more ; but when he makes a few incisions on
c-i'her side of Ihe boot, near the sole, Ihe
pre-surc ceases, am) his instep is at once re
lieved. — Practical Farmer,
Caring Bacon Without Smoke.
“ 0, Hip trouble folks have taken,
'I n smoke ami spoil their bacon.”
'I i) smoke Hie best bacon, says the Portage
Drmocnu . I.r vour bogs early and fat them
wel: Bv inning early you make a grout
saving in food, and well fattened pork. Then
kill ns eariv as the iveather will allow, and
salt as soon as the animal heat is gone, with
plenty of the purest salt, and about half an
ounce of saltpetre to one hundred pounds of
nor!
As soon ns the meat is salted to your taste,
which wilt generally be in about five weeks,
lake n out, and if any of it has been covered
wi'h brine, let it drain a little. Then taka
black pepper, finely ground, and dust on the
hock end as much as will slick, then hang it
up in a good, clean, dry, airy place. If all
this is done as it should be, (it ought to be
done now,) you will have no further trouble
with it, for by fly lane in spring your bacon
is so well cured on the outside, that flies or
bugs will not disturb it.
Curing bacon is like the Irishman’s mode
of making punch. He says :—“ Put in the
sugar, then fill u up wiih whiskey, and every
drop of water you put in after that spoils ibe
punch.” Just so with curing bacon; after
following the directions given above, everv
“drop” of smoke you pul about it spoils the
bacor.
To Preserve Iron and Steel Knives.
Procure home melled virgin wax, the purer
the better, and rub it thorughly over the
blades of the knives. After it has dried, warm
the knives, and having carefully removed the
wax from the surface, rub them briskly with a
dry cloth, until the original polish is fully re
stored. 'Phis will fill all pores with the un
cliousnnd minute parlichla of the wax, which
will adhere firmly and prevent the intrusion
of water or moisture which is the cause of
rust. They will retain their brilliancy for
weeks, it used.
Milk in Bread.—l have more objections
than one to milk in bread, but the most seri
ous is, that persons of advanced age, who are
in the daily use of milk made bread, will be
expected to suffer from an over supply ofossft
oiis or bony matter, and particularly if theft
kidneys be affected. Bread should alyrays be
made with water, and when so made, it is
suitable for the aged and the young, (he.siok
and well. And as for sour milk, a microsco
pic view would, I presume, present additional
arguments against its use. *
To Make Fecit Pies.— No under crust,
should be made to apple or any fruit pie. It
is always heavy and not fit to eat. Place a
narrow rim of paste aroud the edge of the
plate, and fill, with the fruit, either raw
or slewed, and cover it f The juices will be
retained much better, and it wi|Lsave a,sigbt
of butler and flour, which is no (rifling con
sideration in these days, and what isdfmorft
consequence, save dyspeptic, which tokti

AYER’S PILLS,
ANBw;and singularly successful-remedy for tho
cure of all Bilious discuses—Costiveness, Indi
gestion, jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers,
Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Inflamma
tions, Headache, Bains in the Breast* Side, Back,
and limbs, Female Complaints, &c. &c. Indeed,
very few arc tho diseases in which a Purgative Medi
cine is not more or less required, and much sick
ness and suffering might bo prevented, if a harm
less but effectual Cathartic were more freely used.
No person can feel well while a costive habit of
body prevails; besides it soon generates serious and
often fatal diseases, which might harobcen avoided
by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative.
This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and
Bilious derangements. They all tend to become or
produce the deep seated and formidable distempers
which load the hearses all over tho land. Hcnco a
reliable family physic is of the first importance to
tho public health, and this Pill has been perfected
with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profes
sors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing
any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures
have been effected beyond belief, were they not sub
stantiated by persons of such exaited position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among tho many eminent gentlemen who have
testified m favor of these Pills, we may mention:
Du. A. A. Hayes, Analytical Chemist, of Boston,
and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high
professional character is endorsed by the
Hon. Edward Everett, Senator of the U. S.
Romm! C. WiNTiiuor, Ex-Spcakcr of the House
Df Representatives.
Abuott Lawrence, Minister Plen. to England,
f John D. Fitzvatuick, Cnth. Bishop of Boston.
Also, Du J. 11. Chilton, Practical Chemist, of
New York City, endorsed by
Hon. W. L.'Maucy, Secretary of State.
Wm. B. Aktoii, the richest man in America^
S. Lelano & Co., Propr’s of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and others.
Did space permit, we could give manv hundred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
been used, hut evidence even more convincing than
the experience of eminent public men is found in
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, arc offered to tho public as the best and
most complete w Inch the present state of medical
science can afford. They arc compounded not of
the. drugs themselves, hut of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical
process in a -state of purity, and combined together
in such a manner as to insutc the best results. This
system of composition for medicines has been found
iu the Cherry Pectoral and? both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob
tained bv anv process. The reason is perfectly ob
vious. While oy the.old modeof composition, every'
medicine is burdened with more or less of acri
monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi
vidual \irtuc only that is desired for the rurntivo
effect ik present. All the inert and obnoxious qual
ities of each Aiibstaucc employ ed are left behind, the
curative urines onlv being retained. Ilcnec it is
self-evident the effeetk should prove ns (hey have
proved more purely remedial, and the Pills a surer,
more poweifnl antidote to disease than any other
medicine known to the world.
As it is frequently expedient that my medicine
should be taken under the tmmsel of an attending
Physician, and us he could not properly judge of a
remedv without knowing its composition, I have
supplied the accurate Formula' by which both my
Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole body of
Practitioners in the United States and British Amer
ican Provinces. If, however, there should bo any
pne who has not] received them, they will be
promptly forwarded by mail to his address.
Ofall the Patent Medicines that arc offered, how
few would be taken if their composition was known !
Their life consists in their mystery. X have no
mysteries.
Tho composition of my preparations is laid open
to all men, and all who arc competent to judge on
the subject frcelv acknowledge their eon'iclinm* of
their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was
pronounced by scientific men to he a wonderful
medicine before its effects were known. Manv em
inent PhvMci.ms have dcvlai'-d the >:imc thing of
mv Pills, ami even mote confident I '., mol will
ing to certify that their anticipations were more
than 1 realized by their effects upon trial.
