This is none the less startling when it is remem- bered tiiat not live per cent. of patients pre- senting themselves to the regular nractitioner I are beuetited, while the patent medicines and other advertaeti cures never record a cure at all. starting with the claim now generally be- | lievi.-d by the most scientic men that the disease is due to the presence of living para- sites in the tlstlle, Mr. Dixon at once adauted ms cure to their exterm nation--this accom- plished. he claims the Catarrh is practically ciired.and the pernianency is uiiquestioned,as cures eifected by him tour years are are cures still.

When cows have eaten all the coarse fodder they will give them good hay, then clover hay, and nally a feed of roots, with meal and bran. In this way they will eat with better appe- tites, and the results either in 'esh, milk or butter, will be very marked. Most farmer's err in doing exactly the reverse.

I had camped near the forks of the Platte, and was aroused just at daylight by footsteps around me. After listening for a moment I felt sure that they were the footsteps of horses. They seemed to be circling around me-not at a cantor- not at a trot, but at a moderate walk. It `was well that I had secured my horsein a thorough manner, for I -never saw him so excited. He tuggedand pulled at his lariat. stood up on his hind legs, neighed and snorted and pawned and pranced, and it was his action that gave me a clue to the identity of my visitors. They were wild horses! 7 Had they been Indian ponies my trained nurse would have remained as dumb and silent as a post. Indeed, In- dians would not have approached me in that manner.
