Telephones and Microbes.
The repeated complaints that tele
phone receivers and transmitters are
a Bource of death-dealing disease
germs caused a test to be mndo re
cently by a prominent physician. The
transmitters and receivers of seven
telephones located at widely different
points, wre put under the severest
tests. The telephones are in conslant
dally use by people of all classes. The
doctor expected to find thousands of
germs, but he was agreeably sur
prised, as he did not discover a
single one. At first he felt convinced
that some mistake had been made,
and ho conducted a very thorough
second test, with tho same result.
The tests were made at tho instance
of a woman patient who uses tele

the satisfactory showing, the physic
an advises that the receivers and

A change to the right kind of food
can lift one from a sick bed. A lady in
.Welden, 111., says: .
"Last spring I became bedfast with
severe stomach trouble accompanied by
sick headache. I got worse and worse
until I became so low I could scarcely
retain any food at all, although I tried
every kind. I had become complete
ly discouraged, had given np nil hope
and thought I was doomed to starve to
death, till one day my husband trying
to find something I could retain brought
Lome some Grape-Nuts.
"To my surprise the food agreed with
me, digested perfectly nnd without dis
tress. I began to gain strength at
once, my flesh (which had been flabby)
grew firmer, my health improved in
every way and every day, and in a very
few weeks I gained 20 pounds in
iweight. I liked Grape-Nuts so well
that for 4 months I ate no other food,
and always felt as well satisfied after
eating as if I had sat down to a fine
banquet.
"I had no return of the miserable
sick stomach nor of the headaches that
I used to hnve when I ate other food.
I am now a well woman, doing all my
own work again, and feel that life is
Korth living.
"Grape-Nuts food has been a godsend
to my family; it surely saved my life
and my two little boys have thriven ta
It wonderfully." Name given by Tos

MII.K AND VITALITY.
In his recent address to the Hoi-stein-Eresian
Association at Syracuse,
, N. Y., rresident Cortelyou of the as
sociation touched upon the vitality
of cows and their milk. He said:
"The most important work of a
public nature which, in my opinion
will operate to advance the Interest
of owners of Holbein cattle, is the
promulgation of a better knowledge
among consumers of milk, of the diet
etic value of the grade of milk pro
duced by our io-.vs. it Is a well
known fact that the offspring of those
breeds of cattle whose milk is rich
In lMitter fat arc reared witit the
greatest difficulty. Such offspring ap
pear to be deficient in vitality and
especially subject to stomach and
bowel troubles which are fatal in
many cases; and It. Is now bclnr; more
generally recognized by physicians and
consumers that, milk rich In butter
fat Is an Improper food for young
children and Is deleterious In its ef
fects and produces generally the
fame effects in human beings as in
animals.
These irsuIH are now said by scien
tists to be due to several causes and
primarily to the excess of fat in the
milk, and in the cas of children, par
ticuiarlv. are probably also due to ttae
extraordinary character of the fat
globules, which in these small breeds
of cattle are extraordinary large, and
entirely unlike those of Ho'.strin milk
which nearly corresponds with human
milk in its solid contents.
It Is also becoming widely recogniz
ed that the milk from the large and
vigorous races of cattle specially Hol
Btein's, possesses another quality,
characterized by Professor Carlyle. as
vitality, and that this quality is com
municated to the consumer, whether
man or beast. Thus we have large,
strong, vigorous calves when reared
upon Holsteln milk, and puny, weak
ones from those reared upon milk
rich in fat; and human being?, fed
upon milk possessing the character
istics of Holsteln milk, are likewise
healthy, strong nnd vigorous.
The investigations of the Storm
Connecticut Agricultural Experiment
Station, as published in bulletin No.
Rl wholly confirm these assertions and
I commend Hits bulletin to you as
worthy of most careful study.
Professor Carlyle was right in af
firming that "there Is such a thing
as vitality In milk and that it Is of
equal, if not greater importance than
Its chemical composition, especially
for the milk supply of cities, and thrro
can he no question hut ttiat the vital
ity of the animal producing it. Indi

HOW TO INOCULATE FOR AL
FALFA. Prof. TTopUlns, of Illinois, one of
the most, distinguished soil experts
of the country, advises in inoculating
for alfalfa to use at. least 100 pounds
of Inoculated soil to tho acre. The
soil should be scattered over the field,
ho says, with some degree of uni
formity, but. it is not like seeding
grain, and It Is not absolutely essen
tial that every square yard in th? field
should receive Its due portion of in
fected soil. Some care should be tak
en In spreading It over the higher
places in tlic field, but If places
should be missed on slopping land or
on lower lands the bacteria will soon
be carried over them by the surface
drainage waters. Indeed, if all the
watersheds In the field that Is all
ridges and high places are well In
oculated the "entire field will ulti
mately become infected, the bacteria
being carried by soil washing, but
tho infection is more rapid of course,
If the Infected soil Is spread over
the entire field with some ncgree c.t
uniformity when It. Is first applied.
If possible, the soil should he ap
plied at about the time the alfalfa
seed is sowed and then harrowed in
with the seed, but it may be applied
a month or two before sowing the
alfalfa or at any time afterwards and
It Is not absolutely necessary that I:
be harrowed in, although that is ad
visable. If applied to a field wliere the al
falfa is already a year or two old
the infected soil may be mixed with
the soil of the field by harrowing or
disking (the disks being sot straight,
so as to cut off the alfalfa
roots).
The infected soil may be applied
!n any way to get ft over the field
as by hand (throwing ft, from the
wagon), with an equal gate seeder, if
the soil Is dry enough and sufficiently
well pulverized or an any other way
wliich may be found convenient.
The results obtained during the
past year fully confirm the results
previously reported by the Illinois
station concerning the importance
and value of Inoculation for alfalfa.
The information which we now have
strongly indicates that if it Is provid
ed with the proper bacteria alfalfa can
be successfully grown on any soil
where both corn and red clover are
successfully crops.
HILLSIDE BROODEP HOUSE WITH
FLOOR.
The Connecticut station brooder
house is described by F. H. Stone
burn, which has proved very success
ful. The house Is built on a side hill,
and Its essential feature Is an ele
vated chick floor, which is 3.5 feet
above the level of the alley nlong
the side of the building. This ar
rangement Is secured by taking ad
vantage of the hillside for the level
of the chick floor and digging out
the space for the alley as much as
necessary. If built on the level the
author notes that special attention
must be paid to securing good drain
age in the alley, which ulrt then
have to be dug below the surface. The
elevated chick floor effects a saving
in the amount of heat required to
maintain a given temperature, since
It diminishes the enclosed air space,
which must be heated, and brings the
chicks near the ceiling, the warmest
part of the room.
Tests have shown that In cold
weather the temperature at the level
of the alley floor was fourteen de
grees lower than at the chick floor.
By building on a hillside an amount
of side wnll exposed to the weather
is considerably diminished which is
an advantage from the standpoint of
heating. The plan followed has a dis
advantage In that the chick pens are
low, nnd o It was rather inconveni
ent for the at'endant to enter them
when it was necessary. Massa

CAKE OF TOOLS.
Farmers make a great mistake if
they fall to provide a place where
the tools can he stored carefully and
kept from the weather. So many
fanners allow their hired help to be
careless with the tools when they
are through with them, to throw them
down in the field where they must
tike the sun and the rain; or if car
ried to the tool house at all. are left
with dirt on them, so that they will
rust and ruin. This ought not to be
so. Every tool, as it has served its
purpose, should be cleaned and put
In the tool house in its place. It can
then be readily found when needed,
and will he fit for use. Carelessness
with the tools means loss of time and
money. A plow costs eight dollars;
the hired man leaves it in the field;
it rusts and the consequence is It
requires a half day to clean It, for It
refuses to turn dirt when rusty. The
plow is injured, whereas, five minutes
would have sufficed to clean it and
put it away, thus keeping the plow
uninjured and saving the wages of
the hired man while there should
have been a lot of work done with
the plow. All the tools should bo
kfpt in order. Nothing should be
laid away out of repair. It will save
your temper as well as your cash, it
a rule is adopted to care for tho tools
properly and keep them always ready
for use. As Foon as yon are done
with a mower, binder or harrow, put
it under shelter. The small tools
should he krnt in a tool chest: they
are then all together and ready for
use. These are seemingly insignin
cant matters; but they count for
much in the aggregate. Lojs of time
means loss of money and tools cost
too much to be rejected In this
way. Sirs. Lou J. Duncan, in the
Ep'.tomist.
GOSLINGS PAY 'WELT,.
Young goslings should be put on
a lot where tho grass Is vigorous and
tender, and should be given hesldes
all the meal and shorts they will eat
and some meat scraps. They arc al
lowed to run in a half-acre lot until
the flight feathers reach the root, of
the tail, then they are kept In a
small enclosure with some shade and
fed for about three weeks all the
corn meal with one quart of meat
scraps that they will eat In the morn
ing and whole combat night. They
have all the water they will drlnlc
and a box of clear sharp sand.
When ready for market, they should
be dressed-carefully with the head
on and leaving the flight feathers and
a'hout half the neck unpicked. They
should bring from eighteen to twenty
five cents per pound and averago nine
pounds each. A goose that will lay
fifty eggs a season is almost as profit
able as the average cow. An extra
profit Is the feathers which amount
to about seventy cents per ten gos
lings. Massacbuestts Ploughman.
A HANDY CONTRIVANCE.
To hold cow's tail while being milk
ed, string a wire above and a little
back of the cow and then take three
or four short wires about 20 to 24
inches long and make a hook on each
end, one small one to go on the wire
and the other to hook on the tail.

The Word "Jinrikisha."
The word jinrikisha comes from
three Japanese roots, jln-riki-sha,
meaning respectively man, power, car
ritge, but it Is not of Japanese ori
gin. So recently as 1S70 the incon
venience of the slow, lumbering two
wheeled carts turned the thoughts of
English residents to the ease with
which the hardy natives could pro
pel a lightly constructed vehicle, and
one was invented, some say by a
missionary, others by a newspaper
proprietor's son. Ever since then tho
heavy carts have been entirely dis
pensed with.

SHEEP AS SCAVENGERS.
A sheep is not a scavenger In th
sense that the pig is. They will pass
through a pasture or a field filled with
all kinds of weeds, eating of this and
that by way of variety, or as a tonio
to theii systems. The dandelion,
which is so abundant in our pnaturos,
is relished by sheep, and they will
scarcely let any of it go to seed, so
diligent are they in eating it down.
Most weeds are somewhat bitter to
the taste, and the liking for what Is
bitter seems to be a peculiarity of the
heep, which often leads It to eat
plants that arc poisonous if allowed to
run where poisonous weeds grow. It
tins been stated upon pretty good au
thority that sheep have been poisoned
by an overdose of cherry, peach nnd
almond leaves, all of which contain
prussic acid, nnd are poisonous when
eaten in any considerable quantity.
VALUE OF A SLED.
A sled Is more convenient for many
uses of (lie farm than a wagon. Every
farmer should have at least one two
borse sled capable of bearing heavy
loads and about two oue-hnrse sleds
for hauling light loads. There are
many forms of sleds, some very costly
nil serviceable. One cheap form is
made from two planks (about 2 or 3
Inch) 1 foot wide and about 10 feet
long fut a two-horse clod, (1 feet for
one-horse. Crocs pieces about C feet
long may be milled across the top foi
bunks, and slani'r.iV.s for box may be
nailed on or mortised Into tho runners
and tlie rlcd drawn by means of n
chain fastened to the top of rumors.
The runners should bo well sloped np
in front and if (shorter bcariug is
wanted may bo sloped at both front
nnd back. If soled with old wagon
tires it will last a long time. All sleds
should be made wide, as a narrow one
is easily upset. A. N. Horn, In The
Epitomlst.
USING THE SKIM MILK.
Much of the skim milk which is fed
on the farm Is given without much
idea of its value or what it should ac
complish. It Is n by-product of the
farm, and the main Idea seems to be
to feed It and get it out of the way
In our experience the best results in
feeding it come from a combination of
grains, except when it is fed to poul
try. In this feeding several interest
ing experiments have been made, and
the conclusion reached that the egg re
turn is best when the grain is fed by
itself. The skim milk is Invariably
fed In tho morning nbout 10 o'clock,
and we have had the entire flock of
poultry come in from the range for
their feed of skim milk.
In the winter we feed the warm
mash in tho morning, mixing It with a
mixture of equal parts of water nnd
skim milk; at 10 o'clock we give them
skim milk in the trough, trying to dole
it out so that each bird will gut nbout
n cupful; at noon wo feed tho whole
grain in the litter in the scratching
shed, and at night whole grain again,
arranging It so that three or four sup
pers out of the seven are c.f whnie
corn heated in the oven and fed nearly
hot. For swine the best results come
from milking n mixture of finely
chopped vegetables, middlings nnd
enough skim milk to make the mass
like porridge. In the summer this Is
fed cold, and In the winter ns warm
as tho swine can swallow It Indian

HORSES OR OXEN.
The New Hampshire Experiment
Station has lieen keeping nn account
of the cost of fending a horse, tlml
weighed 1200 pounds, for a year, he
being kept at moderately hard work,
and say that It costs $7-1.32. In round
numbers, then, it costs $1j0 a year tc
feed a pair of such horses, and thecosl
of shoeing would be about $15 more,
while repairs to harnesses and keep
ing them cleaned and oiled would make
another $10. Then the ordinary farm
er will not make such a pair of horses
last more than ten years, and many
would use them up in half that time,
Say that they cost $;!00, which is not
a fancy price, and j et does not mean
a cheap pair that can not do a fair
day's work. Can they do any more
work on a farm than a yoke of good
four-year-old oxen? Can they do any
work that the oxen cannot, unless it
bo on mowing machine or reaper?
Wo know that the oxen can work best
in swamps or among stumps. It costs
less for tho yoke and chains than for
a harness. They are more easily taken
care of. When not at work they can
feed in the pasture, and they require
little grain feed, unless working very
hard or being rattened, and if well
cared for after three or four years at
work they can be sold for beef for
much more than they cost at throd
years old, while if the farmer raised
them himself they seem to have cost
him nothing.
More than one farmer who fails td
make much more than a fair living ai
his business will find upon Investiga
tion that it costs him from $300 to'
$400 a year, and some of them much
more than that for a horse team to
do the work that his father used to
do with his oxen. Ills father raised
his calves, trained them and worked
them. Sometimes he gold one or two
yoke of steers, sometimes a yoke of fat
oxen. When he did so it seemed al
most like finding so much money, and
often he put it in the bank or let it
out on mortgage. Now the son has to
Ec to the bank or raise money by giv
ing a mortgage every (ew years to
purchase a new team of torses.
