The Crematory Trust.
The recent published announcement
that a movement had been set on foot
to consolidate all the crematories of
the United States and Canada into one
association for the purpose of fixing ?
uniform price for incineration is not
one that those sensitive on the subject
of "trusts" need view with alarm.
~?X crematory trust ls impossible."
said a person well informed on thia
somewhat depressing subject, "for the
cost of incineration depends entirely
on the cost of coal. Coal may be $12.
n ton in California and $4 a ton here.
It may be almost nothing at all at a
place like Fort Wayne, Ind., but they
haven't any crematory there. But lt
would be quite impossible to establish
anything like a uniform price."
At present the cost of incineration
depends somewhat on the circum
stance.1 of each case, although in New
York the regular price is $35 for adults.
There arc, however, in connection with
most crematories, "relief funds" es
tablished by societies or by individual
donations, with which the expenses of
incineration for those who have ex
pressed a wish that their bodies be
thus disposed of after death, but have
Jeft no money to provide for it, may
be met. The methods in these cases
are somewhat similar to those used in
hospitals, where a patient pays what
he can afford to pay.-New York Sun.
Brazil Invaded by Teutons.
"Germany in Brazil" is a topic rare
ly discussed in the press, and yet the
German settlements in South America
are the most flourishing of which the
FatheAand can boast. Since the be
ginning of the present century German
emigrants have struggled against fear
ful odds to establish themselves in
Southern Brazil, with the result that
to-day it is claimed that a quarter of
a million inhabitants of German ex
traction find a comfortable home
there. Large German colonies exist
in Rio de Janeiro. % Bahia and other
purely Brazilian pl?ces, but the Ger
mans almost call their own the Bra
zilian provinces of Parana, Santa Cat
erina and Rio Grande de Sui. The
Germans in Brazil may not at present
have either the intention or the wish
to constitute themselves an indepen
dent political body, but the increase of
Germanism in that part of the world
is a factor that will no doubt one day j
be felt-Paris Messenger.
The Power of the Press
Is a common expression, but few realize its
actual power. Great as is the influence of
the press, it cannot begin to equal the
power of Hosteler's Stomach Bitters over
disease. The Bitters strengthens the stom
ach, purifies tho blood, and cures dyspepsia,
indigestion and constipation. It will tone
up tho nerves, stimulate inactive kidneys,
and as an appetizer, it is unequalled. If
you want to get well, and keep well, use

that farmers feeding tiny number cf
pigs cannot provide a better pasture
for them than to saw- small plats of

of corn to the hogs after they become

Farmers who have watched th? ease
with which larre draft horses handln
heavy loads on good roads or city
pavements have been led to thiiiR that
a heavy horse uust be the better ani
mal in all cases, and we see many
farm teams that are far inferior in the.
amount of work they ran do in plow
ing or in drawing a load upon soft
ground than a much lighter team
would do easily. Then the h->avy
horses are driven over our hilly roads,
oft:n at a rate of speed that cauros
them to pound the earth so that the
legs give out and they are quickly lame.
It certainly requires more food to
sustain a 1600-pound nurse than one
weighing from 1000 to "1200 pounds,
and w"hen not .constantly employed
drawing heavy loads the amount nf
work done by the heavy horses does
net compensate tor the extra cost of
"maintaining them. As farmers will
havo next spring to buy horses, or
many will, we advise them to turn
their attention to the smaller horses
ircm Canada if they can be found
rather than to the Percherons anl
Shire horses that have been so popu
lar lately. They will cost less prices,
cost less to keep, do about as much
work and endure much lcnger.-Amer

American Flnx Fibre.
The foremost countries for the
growth of fine flax threads and fabrics
are those which have long, moist,
equable seasons. Tho most successful
growth cf fiax for fine fabrics is in
thc low countries of Europe. T"iere,
tc obtain the best and finest quality of
fabric, the seed is not allowed to
ripen, but the flax ls pulled when it
arrives at the highest state of perfec
tion of fibre. i
Puring the fifties I was engaged
here in the manufacture of linen
thread, and found that in order to pro
duce a merchantable article of uni
form quality no supply of American
grown flax could be had. Occasional
seasons gave us excellent fibre, but
variations of seasons prevented the
supply being reliable. Many hundred
thousands of dollars have been wasted
in this country in the attempt to make
fabrics for which our growth of flax
is unsuited. To have fibre of the most
uniform and highest quality uniform
ity of temperature and moisture is
indispensable. Flax fibre grown in onr
climate is inevitably of unequal
strength, because part of the time it
has a proper amount of moisture, and
then comes drouth, and the quality
and strength of the fibre grown after
that aro weak and uneven, so that the
flax is not fit for fine threads or Muons.
In this country, as a whole, flax ls
cultivated for seed, and the use o? the
fibre is subordinate. It answers very
well for coarse fabrics and twines,
but for linens It is wholly unsuitable,
i-Albert E. Powers, in Country Gen
tleman.
Houp in Its Various Form*.
The malignant diphtheretic roup is
its worst form., and as this type is
higbiy .contagious. . the best remedy
is a goqd sharp hatchet, for it saves
tho bird fr'cm intense misery and the
owner from much care and anxiety.
Neither is it safe for the caretaker to
breathe the foul stench which arises
from the disease. Besides, a hird
which seems- -to- recover from it is
practically worthless.
The next worse form is free from
the canker in the throat, but both
sides of the bead are usually ball)
.sw'ollen, both eyes close and ofttimes
maturate. If the bird recovers from
this form it generally loses ono or
both eyes, as the great inflammation
shrivels the eye entirely away. In
the mild type of this form, the eye*
close, maturate slightly and stick to
gether. Cold cream or vaseline rub
bed on every morning and night will
nearly always cure them.
Houp sometimes assumes the pneu
monia type. If taken in season a tea
spoonful of Arabian balaam, two or
three doses, will nearly always cure.
When the roup first makes its appear
ance in a flock of poultry the sick
should be put in as warm a room as
possible by themselves. Put carbolic
acid in their drinking water, a table
spoonful twi a pailful of water. Mix
a little cay - ne pepper in their warm
feed in tht morning. A little tiuctura
of iron in their drinking water occa
sionally, even when health is good,
may be the means of saving from di
sease in the future. As a rule, how
ever lt is a discouraging task to doc
tor poultry. An ounce of prevention
is ofttimes worth a pound of cure in
the poultry business, yet, in spite of
all precautions roup sometimes will
make sad havoc among a choice flock.
Keep everything as free from damp
ness as possible.-American Agricul- j

For the Cow Stable.
"Line upon line" ls a precept as
applicable to the dairy business and
to farming in general as to morale.
Here follow, for example, some rules
for the cow stable which are far from
novel, but none the less imposant.
Hoard's Dairyman in arranging and
enforcing them calls them "command
ments."
1. Thoroughly clean the stable
every day and sprinkle the gutters
?h? all wet spots on the floor wJth
land plaster (gypsum) or road dust,
2. .Give each cow a liberal supply
of dry bedding at all times.
3. Use the card and brush daily on
each animal. Such attention is al liri
portant for the cow as fdr the hjrse.
4. Feed, water add ti?W with rcgtt
larlty, h?w?y& ht the same hd?rs had
ifl the same ?rd?r. _ .
5-. io) Before commencing io
milk brush tne udder and flanks care
fully-, and wash the teats if necessary.
Vb) Never milk with vet hands, but
use a few drops of clean sweet oil if
teats are dry and rough, (c) Draw
thc milk as rapidly as po3sible, but
always gently, (d) Get all the milk
each . time and then atop. ?30 not

8. Never leave cows out cf d

fortablc.

Tho analysis ot Fertiliser*,
It has long and often been claimed
by farmers that the chemist in his
analysis of fertilizers does not tell
them enough about their compoaUloni
They say that the chemist gives '.hem
commercial value only, arid that fre
quently Incorrect, While the agricul
tural val?e, which is the important
thing to the farmer, is not shown or
pretended to bel With regard to
phosphoric acid and potash, the pre
fent methods of chemical analysis
are on the whole satisfactory, and
furnish a basis for judgment as to
the agricultural value cf these ingre
dients. But in the case of nitrogen,
the most valuable and costly eioraent
ia fertilizers, tho complaint of the
farmer is well founded.
It is an unquestioned fact that a
fertilizer can be manufactured which
will analyze high in nitrogen and
yee have very little value as a ferti
lizer. The ordinary method of analy
sis, as is commonly us-rd in this and
many other states, gives the total
amount of nitrogen in the fertilteor
without showing whether or not the
nitrogen is in form available for
plants, but they "assume" that the or
ganic nitrogen is from the hort
sources, and consequently highest
cost, and value it accordingly.
The Connecticut station report for
1895, says: "These valuations it must
be remembered are based on the as
sumption that the nitrogen, phos
phoric acid and potash arc available
to farm crops. Chemical examinations
can show pretty conclusively whether
this it true in regard to potash.
There is less certainty in regard to j
phosphoric acid, while chemical ex- I
amination as it is usually made gives |
little or no clue to the availabil.ty of
the organic nitrogen in mixed goods.
The principal use of artificial fer
tilizers is to give an early and vigoi
ous start to hoed crops. It is very
important, then, for farmers to know j
how much of the nitrogen in tho fer
tilizer to be used is in such form that
it is available for this early rapid j
growth.
Nitrogen is used in fertilizers in
three forms, as nitrogen of nitrate
salts and nitrogen in combination
w ith animal or vegetable matter, com
monly called organic nitrogen.
All ammonia and nitrato salts are
soluble in water, and hence immedi
ately available to the plants.
With organic nitrogen the case ls
quite different. The principal sour
ces of organic nitrogen are fish scrap,
dried blood, slaughter house refuse, '
horn and hoof meal and leather waste.
These materials have a very different
agricultural value; dried blood, for in
stance, decays rapidly in the soil and
sooner yields its nitrogen to thc cope
than hoof and horn m:al and leather
waste, which resist for a long time
the process, of decay, and till then are
practically worthless.-Andrew H.
Ward, in New England Farmer.
THE MANY-SIDED LLOYD'S.
Special Features or the Grent .Ma ri no In- !
s ii run co A coney.
"There is a philanthropic side of the
corporation of Lloyd's. Whenever they
hear through any of their vast army
of agents of any deed of heroism on
the deep tney immediately communi
cate with thc hero or heroine and com
memorate tho deed by striking off a
medal which is presented to the one
who has earned it. Thc committee of
Lloyd's has a standing advertisement
in Lloyd's Weekly Shipping Index, re- j
questing all captains who may call at
British ports to 'communicate any in
formation concerning any wreck or
vessel In distress, or making a long
passage, to Lloyd's agent at the first
port of call. The value of such in
telligence is great, and it may bc suf
ficient to remind captains how often
such news may bc the means of con
veying to the wives and families of
officers and crews the assurance of the
safety cf their husbands and fathers.'
"At an office on thc ground floor of
the Royal Exchange, Lloyd's answers,
free of charge, all sorts of inquiries
from the wives, or relatives, or the
sweethearts of sailors anxious about
the cruise of Jack, or desirous of find
ing out where his ship may be. There
is a list kept by which thc where
abouts of any British vessel may be
found in a twinkling. An important
book is the 'Captain's Register,' con
taining the biography of more than
30,000 commanders in the merchant
service of Great Britain. Another vol
ume not high in favor with the under
writers is called the 'lilack Book,' in
which missing and wrecked ships are
recorded. Lloyd's publishes what is
practically a list of all the merchant
vessels of the world, measuring one
hundred tons or more. It is called
'Lloyd's Register of British and For
eign Shipping,' and it tells all about
every seagoing craft worth mention
ing, giving her tonnage.dimensions and
the'name of her captain and owner."

Invigorates Weak Men.
Old before his time ! A broken-down,
miserable wreck-weak, nervous, dis
couraged !
The world to him seems a place of
mist, peopled with ghostly beings,
whose flitting to and fro about their
daily tasks serves but to irritate him.
He sneers at healthy amusements,
and finds no comfort or pleasure
in life.
He is sick and he does not know it. He
drags about, and therefore thinks he is
well. He is despondent and peevish, and
weak, and he does not know that there are
merely signals-some from the stomach crying
for aid-others from the nerves beseeching strength
-still others from the great life-current-the blood
moaning that it is so impeded and clogged with
impurities that it cannot move.
He, and all others like him, will find imme
diate relief in Dr. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. This ..; just what it was
intended for. It never fails to make weak
men strong and vigorous, puta new life, vim,
strength, power and energy into them.
tir. Greene's Nervura is New Life,
Hope and Strength for Weak Men.
Mr. JOHN D. SMITH, electrician for Uio
Thompson-Houston Electric Co., of Lynn,
Mass.,says:-"When a mun hag been sick
and is cured, lt is his duty to tell others
about it, that they, too, may get well.
Three years ago I had been working almost
night and day, could not (at regularly) and
got only a few hour sleep at night. No
man can stand that long, and I soon began
to be prostrated. I could not sleep when
I tried, and my food would not stay on my
stomach. I was in a terrible condition, and
was much alarmed. I went to doctors,
but they did me no good. Learning o? tho
wonderful good done by Dr. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, 1 deter
mined to try lt. It cured me completely of
all my complaint*. I eat heartily and sleep
well, thanks to this splendid medicine. I
believe lt to be the best remedy in
existence."
