Escape. The eye test for detecting tubercu- losis in cattle has the approval of the scientists of the bureau of animal ii- dustry, United States Depurtment of Agriculture. The ophthalmic or eye test is used as a check upon the older methods, as it happens occasionally that an animal that will not react to the subcutaneous injection or intra- dermal test will react to the eve test. Two tuberculin tablets are placed in ihe conjunctival sac beneath the lower | lid of the left eyc and observations are | yaken at approximately the third hour | Eye Test for Tuberculosis Has Its Best Use on Dairy Farm, Where Conditions Are Best Suited. following and at frequent intervals up to 24 hours. Reaction to the test is in- dicated by discharge and swelling. The bureau of animal industry is not ! prepared to accept the evidence of the : eye test alone where cattle are intend- | ed for interstate shipment. The test, however, furnishes an additional safe- | guard , when used with the older method. The eye test is not well adapted for | use upon range cattle or cattle in transit, because of the possibility for dust setting up an irritation not relat- 1 ed to tuberculosis. It has its best use , on the dairy farm, where conditions are such as to give sure results. The experts have observed that in herds which are frequently tested by | the subcutaneous method it is advis- | able-to apply the iutradermal and the eye test. The combined test sometimes detect reactors which have escaped detection by other means. i CRUSHED GRAIN IS FAVORED Any Aid Given Cow in Digestion of | Food Will Show in Increased Flow of Milk. There is no animal harder worked than the dairy cow giving a large flow of milk, and any aid given her in di- gestion will show decided inerease in milk and in her condition. Some grains are easy of mastication and di- gestlon, but the usual ration of -the corn belt is comprised mainly of wheat, corn, oats, rye and barley. All of these grains will show up in the feces if fed whole and unless the cattle are followed by hogs it is entirely lost, Crushing grain is better than grind- “ing it fine, for the digestibility may be ecreased due to failure to mix prop- rly with the saliva.

In order to advertise in Constantls' nople it is necessary to use four lan- | suages. The market is hard to culti- vate; but newspapers give good results there. The population of Constanti- nople Is very cosmopolitan, and all the foreigners speak their own language and read their own newspapers, writes | Trade. Commissioner. Eliot G. Mears. | To reach the public in general, adver- tisements should be published in news- | papers of at.least four languages. | However, thé ‘best results are ob-| tained by publication in Turkish news- | papers, for,.on the one hand, the Turk- | ish population is most numerous, and on the other the Turkish reader is more | susceptible to_the claims of advertise- menians, rience that advertising in newspapers | gives very good results in Constanti-|__ nople, especially. If it is pushed vig- orously. advertising is carried on tram- cars. Street advertising is not pro-| tected by law and cannot be recom- mended to forelgn concerns. The cir-| ulation of newspapers is not great. French newspapers have an approxi- mate-issue of 6,000 to 8,000, Greek 4.~ 000 to 12,000, Armenian 4,000 to 8,000, and, Jl‘m-klsh 10000 to Ia ,000. MONOPOLY: LOST BY GERMANY American Chemists Are Now Produc- ing the Rare Sugars Required "1 for Sciéntific Purposes. Not ‘least ‘among the triumphs of ! the new American chemical industry | has been the production of the rare sugars, so long a German monopoly. "Fhe sugars :were called for by (ho‘ small hospitals, as they are required | in small amount in bacteriological lnboratories—one of them, for in-| | ulent of typhold growth, while oth- ers serve in the detection of cholera germ. The infinite care necessary to prepare them in a state of absolute purity makes their cost seemingly | enormous. The most expensive rare sugar catalogued is stated by Drug and Chemical Markets to be dulcitol, at $375 a pound, whilg mannose is worth: §140 a pound. This is a deli- cate and dclicious sweet derived from | manna, which is secreted in’ thin scales from certain trees and shrubs, and with which the children of Isracl were niiraculously fed during their wander- ings in the wilderness. Xylose, quoted at $120 a pound, is made from the corn cob: inulin is obtained from the buldb of the dahlia at certain seasons of the Other rare rs are—aribi- , at $100 at pound; levulose, $80 a pound, ind raffinose, $75 a pound.

Weather forecasts for months ahead will be possible within a few years as a direct result of solar observations, R. M. Stewart, assistant director of the Dominion observatory, told the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada. The sun is the great influence over varying weather conditions on the earth, and recent observations of it have led to the belief that observa- tories will be able to predict with ac- curacy the general trend of weather for six months or even a year ahead, he said. To be able to foretell the amount | of precipitation and the general temperature for several months in advance may tal 50 or even 100 ars of observation, he added, but expressed the confidence of the ob- servatory that this end would be reached. ‘German “Thoroughness.” Max Walter, head of a boys’ train- ing school in, Frankfort, tells the fol- lowing story by way of illustrating German thoroughness: \ A \'cncmblo teacher in one of Ger- many’s preparatory schools was dis- i tractedly ambling about his study one' ! day when he noticed a stray piece of paper. Picking it up he saw that it was a Latin composition from one of his devoted disciples. On looking at it more closely he de- tected an error which he had over- looked. Seating himself at his desk, he dipped his pen in good red ink and made the necessary correction. He then folded -the paper into a neat roll, stuck it in the fire, and with it lighted his pipe.
