Bottling and Capping in Small Dairy 
What is tlio expedience and insult of 
using a milk cnppiT in small dairies, pro¬ 
ducing 100 lbs. of milk? F. w. o. S. 
Prince Bay, X. Y. 
Many small dairies producing 75 and 
150 lbs. of milk per day use band bottle 
fillers and calipers. The leading dairy 
supply houses curry a hand capper at a 
reasonable figure. I should by all mentis 
recommend the use of a hand capper 
rather than employ the old method of cap¬ 
ping by hand. Your trade should appre¬ 
ciate any attempt on your part to produce 
good milk which has not been touched 
by hands. Capping bottles by hand is 
always liable to lend itself sooner or later 
to contamination. The cost of a filler 
and capper outfit which operates by hand 
is not too expensive for a dairy of your 
size. j. \v. n. 
Lumps on Horse 
I bought an unbroken horse last Spring 
with a bunch on each side his chest. He 
worked and drove all right until a few 
days ago, when hunch on left side was 
swelled and hot. The swelling was down 
to the center of his belly, aud all around 
the old bunch. The old hunch was not 
sore or attached to the bone. Did the 
hunch cause the swelling, or did he get 
hurt? m. N. 
Xew York. 
As the horse was unbroken, we suspect 
that the lumps in question must have 
been caused by rolling on some hard ob¬ 
ject in the pasture. A horse often rolls 
on a stone or stick and causes a swelling 
which, if the bruising he very severe, gen¬ 
erally ends in an abscess which has to be 
opened for liberation of pus, It may be. 
however, that an attempt was made to 
ride the horse when a colt and that, lie 
fell on the stirrups. The location of the 
lumps rather indicate such a cause of 
injury, or it may he that bruising was 
caused by a surcingle or bellyband. Wo 
cannot assign the exact cause without 
making an examination, but as the af¬ 
fected parts are not hot. or sore, it seems 
unlikely that pus is forming. That being 
the case, we should merely paint the 
lumps daily with tincture of iodine or 
rub in a little iodine ointment. Continue 
for three days; then make the applica¬ 
tions every three days, if still required. 
Also dissolve u dram of iodide of potash 
in the drinking water twice daily for 
five consecutive days a week, for iwo 
weeks, or until the swellings subside. If 
they soften, lance them, liberate the pus, 
syringe out clean, inject tincture of iodine 
and then apply the tincture 1 externally 
every other day until healed. a. s. a.

The Poison Hellebore 
The article ou poison hellebore, Vera- 
trum viride. page 987, reminds me of my 
childhood. In the wet meadow across the 
brook from my bottle it used to grow here 
and there, hill as that was about the only 
place where 1 ever saw it. I am sure that 
certain botanical authorities are mistaken 
when they call il common. Nor is it a 
plant that animals will eat to any extent 
if they can find grass in plenty. 
The great, coarse leaves arc not inspir¬ 
ing, but they do come up early in the 
Spring, and some, animals will nibble 
them. I never knew anything but young 
lambs to eat enough of it. to hurt them, 
and they are of course easily poisoned. 
The hellebore really has nothing to rec¬ 
ommend itself to anyone bm possibly the 
chemist or specialist in poisons: it is 
sometimes made the basis of insect pow¬ 
der, so il should not he tolerated any¬ 
where. If it had the beauty of the laurel 
blossoms it would be, at least, attractive 
from that standpoint, hut the laurel will 
win favor from its beauty and il can be 
raised pretty safely where people know 
its poisonous characteristics. 
I was always disturbed because the 
Christmas rose, a flower as unique as it 
is rare and easy to raise, should lie called 
also hellebore, so that certain people who 
know one of these plants must always he 
told what the difference is. This state, of 
things is where technical mimes come in, 
and it is why they should he made of as 
common use ns possible. Nobody would 
ever confuse such names as Veratrum 
viride and Jlelleborus nigor, and we have 
plenty of words in common use more diffi¬ 
cult thau they are. ,t. w. c. 
Powdered Milk to Replace Meat Scrap 
AYhat amount, of powdered skim-milk 
would take the place of meat scrap in 
the Cornell hen mash? I can buy the 
skim-milk (powdered) at 1(4 cents per 
lb. g. a. R. 
Randolph, N. Y. 
I am informed from Cornell that pow¬ 
dered milk may he used to replace the 
meat scrap in their laying mash “on an 
equal basis.” meaning, 1 suppose, that 
the meat scrap may be replaced by a like 
amount, by weight, of powdered milk. 
This latter product seems to he coming 
into high favor as a poultry food, n state 
of affairs highly encouraging both to 
dairymen who need an increased outlet 
for milk products and to poultr.vmen who 
have long been obliged to pay high prices 
for meat scrap. M. «. n.
