By these measures all animals arriying at the yards and upon inspection proving unfit for human food will not be allowed to pass over the scales. Twenty inspectors are stationed, one at eactr scale house, and their work is passed upon by veterinarians. Thus far Inspection has been mainly confined to Infectious or contagious diseases, but the new rules go much further. Cows within a month of calving, and for ten days after, and sheep and hogs three weeks before parturition and for ten days after will be held for advanced pregnancy, and will be subject to condemnation during that time. All animals having bad sores, abscesses or bad bruiaea, serious enough to affect their wholeeomeneM for human food; cholera pigs, scabby or emaciated sheep, skinny, shelly cows and other stock considered unfit for human food will be thrown out and be liable to condemnation. Shippers should be guided by this action, and forward no unsound, badly bruised, emaciated or evidently or supposedly diseased stock to market, ns the same is botmd to be thrown out by the inspectors, and In all probability condemned to the rendering tank. x A ;t hrop Chk knt Coop.

A study of all such details is well worth the trouble, and may cause the difference of a fraction of a cent per quart of milk, which means in time a fat pocketbook in place of a mortgage. Massachusetts Ploughman. ds ed Action of Salt on SoilB. Passerinl has followed up investigations of Dehe-ral- n and of Cassa In studying the effects of plaster on the solubility of pot ash of soils. Omitting his system of procedure by plot experiments, we quote his conclusions, which show a very marked increase of soluble potash when common salt waa added, Tbla Increase was greatest in a moist soil. Salt also rendered soluble lime and magnesia in large quantities. Even tbe use of superphosphates increased the solubility of tbe potash of soils, although tbe Insoluble phosphates did not have a similar effect Nitrate of soda also Increased the solubility of potash. This trial does not present a new truth, but experimentally supports definitely the conclusions heretofore drawn by men of science.
