A EHMEDY FOE BALDNESS. The British Consul at Nicolaiefiy in reporting on the absence of cattle-plague from that part of South Russia observes : .—"-In the summer my attention was drawn to several cases of sudden baldness in bullocks, cows, and oxen, and the loss of manes and tails among horses. A former servant of mine, prematurely bald, whose duty it was to trim my lamps, had a habit of wiping his petroleum-besmeared hands' in the scanty looks which remained to him, and after three months of lamp-trimming experience, his dirty habit procured for, him a finer head of black glossy hair than he ever possessed before in his recgllection. I subsequently tried the experiment on two retriever spaniels that had become bald, with wonderful success. My experience induced me to suggest it to the owner of several black cattle and horses affected as above stated, and while it, stayed the spread of the disease among animals "in the same sheds and stables, it effected a quick and radical cure on the animals attacked. The petroleum should be of the most refined American qualities, rubbed in vigorously and quickly with the palm of the hand, and applied at in-; tervals of three days. 1'
