PAINFUL DISEASE CURED Intereiijtlng Information for Dairy- men Regarding Success In .Neiv Xreatmeiils fur Inflammation of L'dder â€" Lato .Spring Suggestions For tile Farmer. (Coutfibuted by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) THE arrival of spring brings up the question, "When and how shall 1 set my bees out of the Cellar?" to the minds of uU farmer beekeepers. The an- swer calls for judgment on the part of each 'beekeeper. The factors which must take a part in forming correct judgment are (1) tbe cellar, (2) tbe bees, and (3) the season. The Ideal cellar will permit the beekeeper to keep his l>ees confined much longer than will an unfavorable cellar. This is desirable. A fairly dry, dark, easily regulated and venti- lated cellar when the temperature can t>e maintained at 45 degrees Fahr. is ideal. Very few Ontario farm cellars will meet these require- ments, bow«ver, so that tbe weather conditions play a more prominent part in tbe farioer-beekeeper's deci- sion. As a rule, the farmer-beekeeper will do well to carefully select op- portune weather and to give the col- ony some protection after setting out. Watch tbe weather forecasts closely and when the wind gets around to the south and east, with a prospect tiff rain on the morrow, start in tbe evening and move out all if possible. Contract all entrances to suit siie of colony, giving strong colonies ap- proximately H in. by 2 in. and ar- range a cushion of chaff (6 to 8 inches thick at least) over the brood chamber. It pays to pack the sides as well, especially In the northern sections of Ontario. Special packing cases of ?8 in. material are made (or this purpose, giying 3 to 4 inches packing room. The shock to brood rearing is very much reduced by packing and colonies therefore build up more rapidly. â€" W. A. Weir, On- tario Agricultural College, Guelph, Ontario. I'u Treat Inflamed Udder of Cows. Mammitis or inflammallon of the udder is a common diS'ease in cowa. It is caused by irregular milk- ing, exposure to cold and dampness, wounds, bruises, rough or careless hanUling during milking, etc., and in, many cases appears wflhoui well marked cause. liymptoius. â€" One or more quarters of lue udder become swollen, hard uud U'Uder. The patiem becomes dull, appetite lessened and temper- mure increased, llie quulily of Die iLUlk is more or lc.«3 altered, iu iuo=l easts curdled milk uud a iblu lluia rescmbliuj; whey appears when thi leals are drawu. iu some cases a puii.ou of curdled milk becomes lodged iu the milk duel aud is some- wiiai uard to remove, iu some cases dulled blood also aiipears.

I'oulllces can be applied by using a piece cf cloth or canvas, with hole cut (or the proUusiou ot the teats and fas- tening it by stiiugs or straps over the hips aud loins. The applicaiiou of poultices o( the proprietory pre- paration known as "autiphlugistiiie' gives good results. The fluid should bo drawu from each quarter 4 or 5 times daily aud after each milking the udder should be well massaged aud rubbed with camphorated oil. Where this oil cannot be readily ob- tained its substitution by goose- grease gives good results. â€" J. II. It., Ontario Agricultural College. I'laut the Cultivated Crops. To ensure good crops ot carrots, mangles, sugar beets, potatoes and corn, the land should be well pre- pared ahd seed should be secured of tbe highest quality. Under aiverage conditions the Irish Cobbler variety (early potatoes) and tbe Ureeu Mountain, (late potatoes) are recom- mended for Ontario, To secure best results with the potato crop. It Is always better to plant them not later than the 15th of May. This year plant half your seed ten days earlier than you have been accustomed to, and plant the other halt at the usual time. Tbe experiment will prove to your satistactlon the value ot early planting. It the potato plantei and sprayer have not already been overhauled, a rainy day may be very protitably employed in this work. Live Htock lleniiuders. A regular and ample supply of salt will always be found helpful In pro- moting tbe thrift ot live stock. When pasture Is provided for pigs much less concentrated food Is re- quired. Iu view of the present labor shortage pasture will be particularly valuable this year. Mares worked prc-vious to foaling will perform a Rood deal of work and tbe result will be stronger foals than with idle mares. if paBture Is allowed to get a good Ftart It will carry more stock than if eaten bare from tho Btart. â€" Ontario Agricultural College Notes. THK COSSACKS, WliHt These Hussian Fighters Are- Really Like. Few conceptions are probably fur- ther from the truth than the very popular conception ot the Cossack. The wild semi-barbarian rough rider, "much be-bearded and much bo-cap- ped," really belongs to the same category and had his origin in the same wellspring of mid-Victorian ro- mance as the popular picture of Si- beria, all a frozen waste, with no other inhabitant than the convict or the exile, forever chained to his neighbor and forever on the march. As a matter of tact, of course, the • Cossack population of Russia Is bet- ter educated, better organized and altogether more enlightpnod than al- most any other section ot the com- munity. But to understand them one ratf.st understand something of their history. The Cossack never really had an official beginning. He was the gradual outgrowth of circum- stances. Thus, in the early days ot the sixteenth century, when Poland was one of- the great European pow- ers, she had one perennial cause of harassment, namely, the depredations ot the Tartars on her frontiers. In. those days the Illimitable steppes of Southeastern Europe, extending from the Dnieper to the Urals, had no set- tled population. Hunters and fisher- men frequented the innumerable rir- ers, while runaway serfs occasionaUy settled there In small communltie«. Gradually these communities increas- ed. They were composed ot bold and daring men„ obliged at all times to be ready to defend themselves against the attacks ot the Tartars, and as they grew stronger and more numer- • ous the defensive warfare became an offensive warfare until they h*d formed themselves into a kind of na- tural bulwark against barbarian ad- vance, whether ot the Turk or the Tartar. The next most important episodB in their history was when Stephen, the famous King of Poland, in the Utter half of the sixteenth centtirx formed them Into six regiments, as- signed them a headquartfts on the Dnieper and virtually constituted tbe Cossack Commonwealth. This com- monwealth had the privilese of elect- ing a hetman, or <*biet, and, although in time ot peace his power was little more than that ot the responsible minister ot a constitutional republic. In time ot warfare he was a dictator and disobedience to bis orders was punishable with the most drastic sev- erity. So there came into being the Cossack state as It exists to-day. Endowed with certain well defined privileges, the Cossacks are bound in return to give military service. They are to be found in ten separate voia- kos, settled along the frontiers â€" the Cossacks ot the Don in tbe south- east, where the River Don flows down to the Sea of Azotf; the Cossack.s of Kuban, Terek, .\strakan, Ural, Oren- burg. Siberia, Semityechensk- Amur and I'suri. Military service is obliga- tory on all men for twenty years, be- ginning at the age of eighteen, and ever>' Cossack is btjund to procure bis own uniform and horse, if he is mounted, and his own equipment. From time to time tho Cossacks have received from the state grants ot land for each voisko separately, and they are a powerful and thriv- ing people. A.s a rule, as has been said, popular education stands on a higher level ainon.K them thun In the remainder of Russia. Tliey have more schools and a greater proportion of the children attend school. They are, moreover, great agriculturists and raisers of cattle, while -luch a peace- ful pursuit as bee-keeping is popular with many of them. Nevertheless, every man among the Co&sacks prides himself on being able to tr.;nsform himself into a soldier, booted, spar- red and well equipped, within an hour. .\Uogether. they constitute the most important military body In Ru3-' aia, and they must play a prominent part in any settlement ot her present difficulties which Russia may reach. Oefcated In Moral .Sphere. While the German victories that prolong the war are inflicting fright- ful damage upon the peoples of Eu- rope and .suffering upon the world at large, they are not leading to success or stability (or the German cause. They are merely convincing the world of the necessity of a supreme effort to break down the German program ot audacity and violence. Even worse than her losses of man power â€" an attrition that must be felt more, rather than les.s. fiom this time on â€" is her loss ot standing in a world which sets more store by jus- tice and right than ever before. Ger- many's methods In warfare. Intended to provoke exemplary fear, have aroused the world's intens-e reproba- tion. Her corrupt propaganda, the horrid trails o( which are being trac- ed and exposed In every country, have had the most detrimental ef- fect upon the German repute. No great country has ever so rapidly fallen from a place of honor to one ot low esteem. Every year, every month, that prolongs the struggle brings Germany lower in the oplnloi^ of mankind. This, of course, applies to the German Government and Its poMries; to the military and naval leaders of Germany and their atro- cious methods; and to the religious and educatonal leaders,* with their false doctrines and their Insane tri- bunal egotism. â€" American Review of Reviews. "Pntting" In Your Tarlor. During stormy weather, or in the winter, It will no longer be neces- sary for the goiter to forego his put- ting practice. Eugene McLean Long has invented a device tor catching and holding « ball In such a manner that when you use It you almost imagine you are oa a putting green Inscad ot on the parlor floor. The indoor putting green Is a cir- cular device having a recess In the centre. The recess is surrounded by flexible filaments which tip when struck like blades ot grass. The un- derlying idea is to reproduce outdoor conditions as closely as possible. â€" Popular Science Monthly.
