PRESCRIPTION PURIFIES BLOOD Neutralizes Poisonous Acids and Stops Rheumatic Pains and Catarrh The following prescription is very timple, but is the most effective obtain- able for neutralizing acid poisons in the blood and relieving rheumatism and all its kindred ailments; it will also quickly restore the system to a healthy condition. Any one can pre- pare this simple mixture. The ingre- dients can be obtained at any well stocked drug store: “One ounce Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla; one ounce Toris Root Compound; half pint high grade whiskey. Mix and use a tablespoonful before each meal and at bed time. The bottle must be well shaken each time.” Toris Root Compound is a product of the laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceutical Co., Chicago. The good effect of this treatment is said to become apparent after the first few doses and that it is a remarkable system builder and renovator. It is easier to secure a vindication “San it is to restore virtue. mS SSRN 5 gals. $3. HOW TO! APPLY PAINT. Greatest care should be taken when painting buildings or implements which are exposed to the weather, to have the paint applied properly. No excellence of material can make up for carelessness of application, any more than care in applying it can make poor paint wear well. . The surface to be painted should be dry and scraped and sandpapered hard and smooth. Pure white lead should be mixed with pure linseed oil, fresh for the job, ‘and should be well brushed out, not flowed on _ thick. When painting is done inthis manner with National Lead Company’s pure white lead (trade marked with “The Dutch Boy Painter”) there is every chance that the job will be satisfac- tory. White lead is capable of ab- solute test for purity.

Hart, Chemist, ~ Wisconsin Experiment Station. In the milk of individual cows, there is certainly no definite and constant relation between the amounts of fat and casein. One animal may yield a milk containing 2.7 per cent. of casein and six per cent. of fat, while another, produces a milk 2.7 per cent. casein and four per cent. of fat, and still an- other, a milk carrying 3.5 per cent. of casein and six per cent. of fat. These figures are actual analyses of milks of individual cows in the university herd. Expressed in another way, we have milks where for every hundred pounds of fat, there may be anywhere from 46 to 73 pounds of casein. Surely it is clear that for cheese production, a milk carrying for every hundred pounds of fat 73 pounds of casein, i 4 i if é Fig. 1.—Form of tube used in mak- ing casein determinations. Fig. 2.—Casein tube and cork sup- | port. | would yield more cheese than one con- taining but 46 pounds of casein. This is not fiction. But why emphasize this fact of the variation of the casein and fat content of milk? Simply this, that in the minds of not a few dairymen, cows’ | milk contains these constituents in a| definite and fixed yelation. That when the fat increases, the casein rises in a fixed and definitely related proportion. This may or may not be the case. It may be true if we average a great} number of milks, but here lies our most important point, and that is that it is not the average that is to guide us in our methods of improvement, but rather the exception and the deviation from the average. The producer and the cheese maker who pin their faith to such a belief are in the path for progress. Normal milks vary greatly in their composition and are greatly affected by a variety of conditions, such as individuality, breed, advance of lactation, etc. The estimation of any single constituent, as fat, only al- lows us to guess how much of any | modification of the radius of the re inches in diameter, of 7 cm. with an external diameter of from 2.6 to 2.7 em. The graduated tube is approximately 7 cm. long and 1.2 cm. external diameter. Each divi- sion of the scale represents..1 cc. and 2 per cent. of casein where 5 cc. equivalent to 5.15 grams of milk are used in the test, assuming the specific gravity of normal cows’ milk as 1.030. The graduations extend from zero to 10 per cent. This is amply sufficient for all normal milks. The 10 per cent. mark represented on the scale should correspond to exactly 5 ce. Under the conditions of the test the wheel carrying the bottles must be of standard size. The diameter adopted includes the circle formed with the pockets distended, and is 15 inches. Six or 12 pockets as desired can be arranged in this circle. The centrifuge should be strongly made and run easily by hand to 2,000 revolutions per minute. It should be encased in order to avoid accidents. The experimental centrifuge used in evolving this test is encased with the revolving cups ar- ranged to turn in the regular 16-inch diameter twentieth century Babcock fat tester. The only modifications are the structure of the wheel carrying the pockets and the pockets them- selves. The gears are also arranged in order to give easily by hand a speed of 2,000 revolutions per minute. The pockets are 2.8 cm. in diameter and 11.2 cm, long. It is important that the bottom of each pocket should be provided with some arrangement for centering the tube and also forming an elastic:cushion on which the tube is to rest. I have used to advantage ordinary cork stoppers bored out to within 1-8 or 1-16 of an inch from one end, and just large enough to admit the graduated portion of the tube. Fig. 2 illustrates this arrangement. The centrifuge itself is illustrated herewith. As the method is entirely dependent upon the application of a sfinite centrifugal force within a jefinite time, it is clear that any volving wheel will vary the force ap- plied and consequently alter the space occupied by the pellet. A revolving wheel 24 inches in diameter should reyolye 1,566 times per minute, It is probable, however, that the dimensions adopted in the tester | have used—a _ revolving wheel 13% with the casei tubes themselves revolving in a circlé 14.75 inches in diameter and at 4 speed of 2,000 revolutions per minute —will be suitable for most occasions: In making the test the following conditions must be observed: 1. Make the test on sweet, unpre- served milk, where practicable. 2, Make the tests in duplicate, and be sure that the sample of milk is a representative one. Use 2 cc. of chloro- form, 20 ce. acetic acid solution, and 5 cc. of milk. ; 3. Have the temperature of the other of the milk constituents is pres- acetic acid solution and the milk be- The Centrifuge ent. The breeder, through the Bab- cock test, has made a butter cow, one where the fat is unusually high, and he has done this by selection. It does not seem at all impossible that with a simple casein test, the cheese cow can be developed; one where the rela- lation of casein to fat is especially high. Where, for instance, instead of a milk with 73 pounds of casein per hundred pounds of fat, we can produce a milk containing nearer 100 pounds of casein for 100 pounds of fat. Where chemical analysis has been applied to the milk of individual cows, it has revealed the fact that the rela- tion of casein to fat is a variable one, that for 100 pounds of fat we may have anywhere from 50 to 70 pounds of ‘casein, and occasionally even a wider variation. These variations are individualistic and not confined to any one breed, but may occur among cows of different breeds, or among cows of the same breed. This emphasizes the importance of a casein test to sup- plement the fat test where the milk is to be valued for cheese production. The form of the tube used in mak- ing the test is shown in Fig. 1. This should be made of well annealed glass and should contain up to the neck not less than 35 cc. The tube is epproxi- mately 14 centimeters long (equiva- lent to 5.6 inches); the neck is con- stricted to a diameter of 1.8 cm. The Used in the Test. tween 65 and 75 degrees F.; 70 degrees is to be preferred and is more ac- curate. 4. Do not shake the mixture more than 20 seconds. Fifteen is probably ample, but shake with reasonable vigor. 5. Make sure that the speed of the centrifuge is 2,000 revolutions per min- ute, for 7% or eight minutes, with the diameter of the revolving circle 15 inches. 6. Allow the tubes to stand ten min. utes before reading. 7. The following preservatives should never be used when this test is to be applied: Formaldehyde, corrosive sublimate, chloroform and toluol. ..: 8. Experiments with potassium dicromate showed that in the propor- tion of one tablet to 300 cc. of milk accurate and sharp results can be ob- tained when the preservative is in con- tact 96 hours or less. Above that time it is liable to make the casein pellet ragged and irregular. 9. Composite samples, made by con- secutive 12-hour additions of small portions of milk to one-half tablet of potassium dicromate, as is the usual practice in accumulating milk samples for the Babcock test, gave accurate results at the end of 3% days. A longer time tended to make the read ing ragged. 10. In no case can coagulated milk barrel including the neck has a length be used for the test "RAISED FROM A SICK BED.

Jaw, Sask., Nov. 18th, 1907. Writing from Moose Jaw, Saskatche- wan, Mr. S. K. Rathwall says: “I have much pleasure in saying that on my farm this year I had 500 acres in wheat, and 120 acres in oats. My. wheat averaged about 22 bushels per acre, and I had 200 acres cut be- fore the frost, which I sold at 85 cents per bushel, thus realizing on that wheat $18.00 per acre, not count- ing cost of twine, seed and labor. With regard to the other 300 acres of wheat, it got touched with frost but is worth 60 cents per bushel. It will net me $13.00 per acre, but I do not intend to sell it at that price, as I can make more money by feeding it to hogs. “My oats turned out about 50 bushels to the acre, and at 35 cerits per bushel will give me $17.00 to the acre, not counting seed, twine and labor. “On account of the late spring, a percentage of the grain was touched with frost, but on account of good prices, farmers will realize a fair profit on their farms even this year. | We are as usual up against a short- age of cars to get our grain removed.” Every time a stingy man is forced | to let go of a dollar he imagines he is in a dentist’s chair having a tooth pulled, HOYT’S HEADACHE AND NEURALGIA COLOGNE.
