A MOVING MOUNTAIN.

The lion of the hour, says a French correspondent, is the Gouffre mountain m the Gard, which is moving toward that river at the pace of five yards a day. Its advance has destroyed the machinery and pits of the Grand Oombe colliery, and destroyed nearly a mile of the Alais railway. The great thing now is to piepare new channels for the Gard and Gardon rivers, which are sure when tbe landslip come to be completely choked up. Six hundrod . persons have been obliged to leave their homes at the Grand Oombe. The lower strata of the Gouffre mountain, which rises sheer from a valley, are of grit and green morl. Both have given vay owing to the infiltration of rain. The other Sunday 5000 persons wmt from Nimea to see tho moving moun tain from the range fronting it The noise it keeps on making is frightful. There are wide cracks m all directions. Nobody is suffered to go on the Gouffre or into the valley on which it advances

It is an alkaline prepara- ( tien of tar, oils, and acids, and contains 26 • per cent of tar aoids. It is an excellent preparation, and is not only well suited for destroying ticks, lice, etc, and for treating « scab," " menge," etc, but also for destroy- ing the spores of the anthrax microbe 'Bacillus anthracis), and preventing the re spread of anthrax among flooka of Bheep.

In reply to your request as to my reporting to you my opinion of the reßUlt of your dressing Bheep at Mr Lysaght's an Mr Nicholas' with your Foot-Rot Speoifio, I have every corjfidenoe m saying that the cure was a perfeot one, although the weather was very wet and stormy, and the examination was only aix days after the feet had been dressed. Some of the sheep were very badly affected, □early the whole of the fool having rotted off. I should recommend all sheep owners to use your Speoifio if their Bheep are troubled with Foot.rot, as it is easily put on, and I am sure 3 it will give satisfaction.— l remain, yours . truly r ALEXANDER MONRO, Inspector of Stook, June 22, 1895.

Prevention ie Better Than Cure HF >HE few cases of Typhoid m Ashburton Borough and Suburbs afford no JL ground for a " scare," but it is only by using reasonable precautions that the dread scourge can be kept within bounds. In view of the subject i being referred to m the public journals, it may be of service to reprint an extract from an issue of the " Nineteenth Century " of last ye*r, m which special ! reference is made to Diphtheria, but which applies with equal force to Typhoid. The writer remarks, that the latest epidemics m Russia swept away nearly all the children m some villages ; and m Prussia, no less than one-sixth to one-fourth part of all children dying m the age of from one to five jears suc- cumbed to Diphtheria, and the same proportion prevailed m Western Europe as well. Keen interest is being ttken m the experiments of the French Doctors, Roux and Torsen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria, and other kindred complaints is due to an infection of the body by special bacteria, caused by the effluvia rising from drains, back yards and premises generally, into and upon which dairy and kitchen slops have been thrown, Without an infection by bacteria or the poisons which they secrete, there is no diphtheria. The Portable W«sh Barrow is just the one thing indispensable m the direction of perfect sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit iB derived. The fever apd diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, and what is otherwise a source of terror becomes an absolute gain, by conveying the wash to pig trough or to tbe garden. The Portable Barrows can be put to varions kinds of use, and they are so admirably con- structed that, with them, a child caxx do work which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost is comparatively small. Poeseeßion ot one becomes an absolute means of sweetness, comfort and profit. Improyed Copper Boilers, 1 have just received direct from the manufacturers a fresh supply of Portable Ccpper Boilers, with patent smoke stack joint, and Semi-double sheeted frame— galvanised. This useful household requisite sbould be in- spected, when its various excellencies of construction, strength and service- ableness, will speak for themselves.
