SOUNDNESS OF THE SIRE AND

Restrictions of Wisconsin's Low Indicate Diseases Which

tract the trouble and the probable rea-
son is that only horses born with a
hereditary predisposition to the dis-
ease become affected, while other
horses Inherit "strong eyes" less liable
to become affected injuriously by irri-
tation. The tendency to this and
the other eye diseases mentioned is
hereditary beyond question and no
stallion or mare so affected should be
employed for breeding purposes.
As with eye troubles so diseases af-
fecting the breathing apparatus are
likely to be transmitted to the off-
spring by affected parents. The tend-
ency of "roaring" especially is liable
to be transmitted when affected stal-

Congressman Albert Burleson of
Texas has a bill pending in Congress
to instruct and direct the National Ag-
ricultural Department to appoint a
commission of experts to prepare a
table of grades for cotton, not to ex-
ceed thirteen in number, these thir-
teen grades, middling being the basis,
to be the official ruling and legal
grades in all cotton sales and trans-
actions.
President Roosevelt, in his message
to the Congress when It met in regular
session last December, recommended
the enactment of a law establishing an
official and legal grade table for grain,
and what Is right, proper and good for
grain Is right, proper and good for cot-
ton. The principles involved are iden-
tical and the necessities In the one In-
stance are as imperative as in the
other.

Taking everything into consldera
tion that was brought to bear on the
farmers to force them to part with
their cotton, and the brave fight they
have made to control the pric3
against the fearful odds is certainly
something to be admired. The farm-
ers are fast gaining recognition in the
business world and the Farmers'
Union Is responsible for it. There was
a time, and not very long ago, either,
when to speak of organizing the farm
ers for business purposes would pro-
voke a sneer or uncomplimentary re-
mark from some one, but that time is
past. The farmer has been organized

grant cases, as, where a dispute existed
us to the seriousness of a known un-
soundness or disease, the owner could
fall back upon the lack of exact Infor-
mation upon the subject and. If so
Inclined, the veterinary had the same
recourse. Under the original condi-
tions the owner of an unsound stallion
readily might swear that the horse
was sound "to tho best of his knowl-
edge," as that knowledge was meager
and not made exact by law, and the
veterinarian likewise could sign a
soundness certificate conscientiously,
when he found some blemish or dis-
ease present, regarding the transmissi-
blllty of which he was not perfectly In-
formed.
What these disqualifying diseases
are will prove of general interest and
value to farmers and breeders, and we
give the list, as follows: Cataract,
amaurosis (glass eye); periodic op-
thalmla (moon bjlndness); laryngeal
hemiplegia (roaring or whistling) ; pul-
monary emphysema (heaves, broken
wind); chorea (8t. Vitus' dance,
crainpiness, shivering, string-halt);
bone spavin; ringbone; sldebone; nav-
icular disease; bog spavin; curb, with
curby formation of hock; glanders;
farcy; maladie du colt; urethral gleet;
mange and melanosis.
With the Idea of imprdving the gen
eral understanding of these diseases
It may be stated that a horse's eye
may appear to bo perfectly sound
while In reality It Is "stone blind"
from amaurosis, or "glass eye" as the
disease sometimes is termed. In this
trouble the oyes appear unusually
bright, prominent and free from
the presence of a polypus (tumor) in
the nostril, as an operation may suc-
cessfully be performed for the re-
moval of such art obstruction, which
does not constitute hereditary un-
soundness.
Pulmonary emphysema (heaves or
broken wind) is a common disease,
and especially in those districts where
clover hay Is fed to horses. The feed-
ing of coarse, bulky, dusty food or fod-
der that has become moldy is most
likely to induce heaves, but, in each in-
stance where the disease appears, it
may bo taken as likely that the ani-
mal attacked Inherited a susceptibil-
ity to that trouble from an affected
sire or dam. It would be well were
all horses affected with heaves re-
tired from our breeding operations,
and a similar course should be adopted
ed regarding those affected with any
form of "chorea."
Wisconsin's law also plainly stipu-
lates that stallions having unsound-
ness implicating the limbs and joints
shall not be licensed for public serv-
ice. Hone spavin, ringbone and slde-
bone are notoriously hereditary, and all
horse breeders should become profi-
cient In detecting the presence of
these unsoundnesses. Hog spavin

Farming Is An Intricate Business.

probably fail If he undertakes farm-

a successful farmer requires as much
Intel'igence as it does to succeed in

sion.—Valley Mills (Texas) Tribune.

Dr. Hartman has claimed for many years that Peruna i« an EXCELLBJTT
CATARKH REMEDY. Some of the doctor's critics have disputed the doctor'*
claim as to the efficacy of Peruna.
Since the ingredients of Peruna are no longer a secret, what do the medi-
cal authorities my concerning the remediesi of which Peruna. uj P«ed'
Take, for instance, the ingredient HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS, OR
GOLDEN SEAL. The United State* Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy,
that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved muoous membranes,
chronio rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach),
chronio intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (catarrh of the liver), and m
diseased mucous membranes of the pelvic organs. It is also recommended for
the treatment of various forms of diseases peculiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, C0RYDALIS FORMOSA, is clamed in th.
United States Dispensatory as a tonic.
CEDR0N SEEDS is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent drug that
has been very largely overlooked by tho medical professionsfor the past fi_ty
years. THE SEEDS ARE TO BE FOUND IN VERY FEW DRUG STORES.
The United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is used aa
a bitter tonic and in the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent disease*
as a SUBSTITUTE FOR QUININE.
OIL OF COPAIBA, another ingredient of Peruna, Is classed by the United
States Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and diuretic. It acts on the stomach
and intestinal tract. It acts as a stimulant on the genito-urinary membranes.
Useful in ahronio cystitis, chronic dys-
entery and diarrhea, and some chronio
diseases of the liver and kidneys.
These opinions as to the ingredients
of Peruna are held by all writers on
the subject, including Bartholow and
Scudder.
OF HYDRASTIS, BARTHOLOW
SAYS it is applicable to stomatitis
(catarrh of the mucous surfaces of the mouth), follicular pharyngitis (catarrh
of the pharynx), chronic coryza (catarrh of the head). This writer classes
hydrastis as a stomachic tonic, useful in atonic dyspepsia (chronio gastrio
catarrh), catarrh of the ducdenum, catarrh of the gall duct, catarrh of th#
intestines, catarrh of the kidneys (chronio Bright's disease), catarrh of tha
bladder, and catarrh of other pelvic organs,
BARTHOLOW REGARDS COPAIBA as an excellent remedy for chronio
catarrh of the bladder, chronic bronchitis (catarrh of the bronchial tubes).
BARTHOLOW STATES THAT CUBEB, an ingredient of Peruna, pro-
motes the appetite and digestion, increases the circulation of the blood. Use-
ful in chronic nasal catarrh, follicular pharyngitis (catarrh of the pharynx),
increasing the tonicity of the mucous membranes of the throat. It also re-
lieves hoarseness. Useful in atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), and in
chronic catarrh of the colon and rectum, catarrh ot the bladder, prostatorrhea,
and chronic bronchial affections.
MILLSPAUGH, MEDICINAL PLANTS, one of the most authoritativo
works on medicinal herbs in the English language, in commenting upon
C0LLINS0NIA CANADENSIS, says that it acts on the pneumogastric and
vaso motor nerves. It increases the secretions of the mucous membranes in
general. In the mountains of Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Carolina,
collinsonia canadensis is considered a panacea for many disorders, including
headache, colic, cramp, dropsy and indigestion. DR. SCUDDER regards it
highly as a remedy in chronic diseases of the lungs, heart disease and asthma.
These citations ought to be sufficient to show to any candid mind that Pe-
runa is a catarrh remedy. Surely, such herbal remedies, that command tho
enthusiastic confidence of the highest authorities obtainable, brought together
in proper combination, ought to make a catarrh remedy of tho highest efficacy.
This is our claim, and we are able to substantiate this claim by amplo
quotations from the HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD.
