EARLY MEDICAL EDUCATION.
Wh«t Wond«r the Phydclau* Were Mo(
Skilled?
' In tile old days, which maty of our
still active practitioners well remem
ber, the medical student was registered
with a practicing physician, ‘.who more
> or less Intelligently directed his read
ing and sometimes took him on his
rounds as a sort of private assistant,
giving him fitful glimpses of patients,
, wye the Columbia University Bulletin.
Re attended !rarely ‘ three, sometimes
two, often only one, course of lectures
lir a medical school, hearing the same
lectures over again each year. The only
thing which. he ever learned actually
to do with his fingers in the medical
school was to dissect the dead subject,
and here his. experience was not. usual
ly large. He made careful notea of
many “views” regarding disease and its
nature, and usually stepped out upon
the arena with a general idea that dis
ease was a "thing” which got into the
bodies of certain unfortunate people,
and which ht-Svas to drive out. If he
could, with shine one or more of his
preceptor's pretcriptton&'whtyh he had
carefully copied'in srnair compafci ready
for emergencies. y
When he had discovered, the proper
name to attach to his patient’s malady
the rest was largely.a matter of an al
phabetical index of remedies and a calm
abiding of the consequences, It should
not be Imagined that the practitioners
of medicine in thd.Uld days were nec
essarily lacking iti -wide views, .prac
tical knowledge and great skill. But
when this was the case it was usually
owing to a training which they had
secured after and not before they be
came doctors of medicine.
The medical college consisted of a
group of medical men, who obtained a
charter, hired a building, partitioned off
among themselves the subjects which
were deemed essential—anatomy, phys
iology and possibly chemistry, materia
.modlca, pathology, and the practice of
medicine, obstetrics and surgery. Each
day the studento sat upon hard benches,
taking notes for dear life, while the
subject matter of these themes was let
loose upon them in swift succession,
for better or worse, through five long
hours. Perhaps there was a clinic in
the afternoon, perhaps not. There were
no laboratories for practical work, ci
ther of chemistry, physiology or histol
ogy, and independent subjects were un
known. A great many lectures, a little
dissecting, a few clinics, possibly gome
quizzes, a final examination, and the
degree of M. D. was won.

DAIRY AND POULTRY,
INTERESTING CHAPTERS FOR
OUR RURAL. READERS.

UFF Jersey,” writ
ing in Field and
Farm, says: As
an answer to sev
eral inquiries as to
whether dairying
pays in Texas, I
submit our March
report. March in
Texas is a hard
month to make
dairy animals hold
up in yield for the reason
that it is just between hay
and grass—that is our dry feed Is
us :ally very low in quantity and poor
in quality, fall grains are shut away
from the cows at this time, the slid Is
empty and the pastures are short, but
for all of these drawbacks our report
shows up very well: Number of cows
In milk was 27; number of pounds of
milk, 15.045; number of pounds of but
ter made, . The feed consumed
was bought at 65 and 70 cents per
hundredweight. The entire bill was
$61, but as all stock on tho farm Was
fed from the same bin as the cows we
do not know the amount consumed by
the cows, but judge about $40 worth.
Dairying is not Springside’s only in
dustry. We also breed English Berk
shire hogs, and have a fine lot of in
dividuals that are raised at a very low
figure. Our method is as follows: All
brood sows are kept in a thirty-acre
wood pasture with, running water, and
during the time of abundant grass they
receive no grain feed, but are given any
surplus milk from the creamery when
the pigs come, which Is In March, April
and May. We add bran to the pasture
and allow the pigs the run of pasture
till cool weather in fall. Then the
choice breeding animals are selected
and the remainder put up in close pens
and finished for pork. We have no
sickness among the bogs here, and
have no trouble to make pigs weigh
600 pounds and over at six months.
Still another Industry is producing cer
tified eggs. You may not know just
what it takes to make a certified egg.
Well, here in Texas eggs soon go off
in quality, and store eggs are not to be
depended on, so to fill a long felt want
among our many friends and custom

Suppose the claims of oleomargarine

Just as good as butter, as healthful as
butter, and but tor restrictive laws
would sell as well as butter, what
would be the result to the farmer?
Counting 30 pounds per capita per
year as the butter consumed by the
average American, farmers find sale for
2,100,000,000 pounds per annum. This
at the low price of 12Mi cents per pound
brings them in 9262,500,000 net, says
the Chicago Produce. Let us suppose
that oleomargarine should supplant
butter. The farmer, receiving but
about 2 cents as his part of the pro
ceeds of the sale of a pound of oleo
margarine, would only obtain 942,000,

size, hardy growth, and good laying
qualities make it a practical fowl for
the farm. The Barred variety is the
most generally known of the Plym
outh Rock classes, and their history
; dates back a little over a quarter of a
century. Various bloods were used In
its making, the belief being general
that they originally came from a cross
between the American Dominique and
Black Java. It has also been shown
that the Light Brahma, Dark Brahma,
and Pit Game have been used in their
making.
Let A Sail Under Its Own Color.—An
attempt has been made to represent the
vigorous crusade against the illegal
sale of oleomargarine as being in
spired by the selfish motives of dealers
in genuine butter and the claim is wide
spread that oleomargarine is really bet
ter and more healthful than genuine
butter. The first assertion is absolute
ly false. No one interested in the en
forcement of the oleomargarine laws
cares one whit how much oleomarga
rine 1b sold and consumed provided it
is sold for what it really is. No one
can object to persons whose tastes ap
prove oleomargarine buying it But
the issue at stake in the present agita
tion is to compel the sale of the stuff
for what it is and prevent it being sold
to ignorant purchasers when they call
for genuine butter and are made to pay
the prevailing prices asked for that
article.—Ex.
On a scale of 100 points the prize
butter at the Massachusetts Agricul
tural Society ranged as follows: Cream
ery, 07Mi; dairy, 97%. The standard for
judging butter adopted by the Massa
chusetts Agricultural Society is a very
good one for others to follow. It is
this: Flavor, 45; grain, 25; color, 15;
salt, 10; packing, 5. The standard of
flavor was that of June butter. *

Nxw York, May 28. — Lieutenant
Peary, who has just received five years’
leave from the navy department, in an
interview outlined his plans for his
proposed Arctic expedition. On July 8
he Will start north on the preliminary
journey, the sole objects of which is to
make arrangements for the final trip,
which will be begun in July, 1898.
Lieutenant Peary will first pick out a
route for his preliminary voyage. He
will select one of the St. Johns sealers
and have it ready to leave lioston be
tween July 5 and 8. At Boston the
steamer will take on board a store of
supplies.
Lieutenant Peary’s object in his pre
liminary voyage will be to communi
cate with a colony of Esquimaux at
lYhale soupd, who are known as the ;
Arctic highlander^. He will pick out
six or eight of the most intelligent
young men in the colony and prepare .
them to take their families north with
them and establish another colony
which, a year later, will be his base of
supplies. At this village they will
work throughout the year collecting
meat, furs, bear skins to be mado into
boots, sledges and other supplies and
training a pack of the best Esquimaux
dogs obtainable. Lieutenant Peary
says he could utilize the entire tribe
in his work were it necessary. He
will have his men arrange affairs so
that when he sees them in the summer
of 1898 they will be ready to move
north with him at a day's notice.
Peary will be accompanied in this
summer's trip by his wife and her
3-year-old daughter, but on the main
expedition Mrs. Peary and the child
will remain in this country. The jour
ney this summer will be from Boston
to Sidney, then to Cape Breton, where
the ship will take on coal; through
the Gulf of St. Lawrence to Belle
island and up the Labrador coast to
the mouth of Hudson's strait, then to
Besolution island and across to the
South Greenland coast to Melville
bay, and finally to whale sound, which
will be reached in the latter part of
July. The return will be made in
September. Lieutenant Peary is en
thusiastic over the plans of his trip,
and is looking forward to his five
years’ work with the greatest pleas
ure.
“The project is entirely my own,”
he said. “The American Geographi
cal society, the technical society most
capable of passing on the project, has
indorsed it and has promised to sub
scribe money for the trip when it is
needed. The American Museum of
Natural History has also subscribed
I have outlined plans very carefully,
more so than before, and have made
use of all the experience I have gained
ip previous experiences. I depend
largely for my success upon the opera
tion of tile Esquimaux, but Ihavecom
.plete, cohfliic^ibe, in them and I know
that 1 ban trust them to do everything
that I tell them and to have everything
jh readiness for me whcn,vl apl pre
pared to start on the main ^xpi^ditidn
for the pole.' ..... .y.-?; -V ■
“As for the plans for the- main, 'ex
pedition, I Can say little more thin has
already been published. 1 am thor
oughly decided on one project, and
that is that 1 shall take with me very
few white men. 1 shall give much at
tention to- tho selection of my surgeon,
who must be vigorous, active and
thoroughly enthusiastic. I shall time
the main expedition carefully and be
prepared to make the final dash for
the pole at precisely the time when all
the conditions arc most favorable.
There will be much to do, but I am de
termined that there shall bo no delays,
for any interference with the plans
that I have outlined might be fatal to
the entire project.”
