Sore Mouth Among Cattle. (Purdue University Agricultural Experln-ent Station, Newspaper Bulletin No. 67, September 26,1698.) A few weeks ago a disease commonly called sore eyes among cattle, assumed an epidemic form in many parts of the state. Now several localities are reporting another disease called sore mouth or sore foot and j mouth. This disease made it-1 appearance : in the state in the fall of 1891 and in 1892. Since that time very few cases have been seen. It is a disease that attacks cattle of any. age and in a few instances attacks horses. It occurs among animals on pasture and is supposed to be due to some condition of the grass. It is not knowu to be contagious but it is a good policy to separate the diseased and affected as a safe precaution. The symptoms are as follows. The animal ceases eating, stands and frequently champs the jaws, and saliva drips from the corners of the mouth. The muzzle has a peculiar brownish hue which extends to the nostrils aud to the inside of the lips. The inside of the lips, gums, pads and sides of the tongue become reddish. The tongue •wells, sometimes to such an extent as to keep the mouth open. There is a very disagreeable odor about the mouth. After a few days the membrane peels off the gums, lips and tongue in patches, leaving them raw. There is often lameness and soreness of the teats. The disease runs its course in from six to ten days, during which time the animal will be unable to eat anything hard. The bowels are usually constipated. The treatment is to apply an astriogen wash. Tannic acid, one-half ounce; borax, powdered, one ounce; glycerine, eight ounces, and water sufficient to make a quart, has been recommended. A saturated solution of boraic acid is good. Cree-oline--one-half ounce to the quart of water is also good. Make gruels and sloppy feed for diet. In a few cases this disease has been reported as black tongue. This is a mistake, as black tongue is one form of anthrax. A.W. Bitting. D.V.M., Veterinarian. Right la It. That's where Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is. The greatest remedy for the stomach that was ever put together. Absolutely vegetable with the exception of the Pepsin. Are you constipated? Then try Syrup Pepsin. Hare you indigestion or sick headiche? Then use Syrup Pepsin. Spend 10c for a trial bottle and f on will be convinced. Large sixes 50c and $1.00. A true family remedy.

Three Doctors in Consultation. “W-hen you are sick, what you like best is to be chosen for a medicine in the first place; what experience tells you best, to tie chosen in the second place; what, reason (i.e., Theory) says it is best to be chosen iu the last place. But if you can get Dr. Inclination, Dr. Experience and Dr. iieason to hold a consultation together, they will give you the best advice that can be taken!” —From Benjamin Franklin. When you have a bad eold Dr. Inclination would recommend Chamberlain s Cough Remedy because it is pleasant and safe to take. Dr. Experience would recommend it because it never fails to effect a speedy and permanent cure. Dr. Reason would recommend it because it is prepared on scientific principles, and acts on nature’s pain in relieving the luugs. opening the secretions and restoring the system to a uatural and healthy condition.
