y of it to the
eminent Prof. Alonzo Brown, M.D.V.S. of Jefferson, Wis., with a letter of
transmittal authorizing him to analyze it thoroughly, and give us the
result, at our expense. The following is Prof. Brown's analysis:

LABRATORY JEFFERSON LIVERY STABLE,
August 3, 1877.

Lieut. GEO. W. PECK,
4th Wis. Cavalry,

Dear Sir:

Yours of July 25th, received. I should have attended to the water before,
but have had several cases of blind staggers in my barn, which has kept me
busy. I have examined the water by every process known to science, and
pronounce it bully. I took it apart at my leisure, and find that it
contains to one U.S. washtub full, of 741 cubic inches, the following
stuff:

Chloride, of Sodium, (common salt).............2 sacks.
Chloride of Pilgarlic.....................40,021 grains.
Bicarbonate of erysipelas.................11,602 "
Bicarbonate of pie plant...................2,071 "
Blue pills................................21,011 "
Bicarbonate of soda water (vanilla.)......17,201 "
Sulphate of Potasalager beer..............61,399 "
Bicarbonate corrugated iron...............18,020 grains.
Mustang Liniment.............................240 "
Boneset and summer savory.................10,210 "
Dow's Liver Cure, (6 bottles for $1.).....16,297 "
Bromide of Alcock's Porous Plaster........22,222 "
Flouride of Pain Killer (for cucumbers,).....055 "
Paris green..................................001 "
Spruce gum and Vinegar Bitters...............075 "

In submitting this analysis permit me to say that I find traces of mock
turtle soup, and India Rubber. I consider the La Crosse Nebecudnezzer
water the most comprehensive water that I have ever analyzed, and I would
recommend it for any disease that human beings or animals may have.

Very Respectfully,

ALONZO BROWN,

Prof. of Chemistry in Jefferson Livery stable, and late Veterinary Surgeon
4th Wis. Cavalry.

We have known Mr. Brown long and well, and his statement in regard to the
water can be relied upon. Citizens should retain a copy of this analysis
for future reference.

Mr. E.W. Keyes, of Madison, writing under date of August 1st, says: "The
La Crosse water you sent me has caused an entire new crop of hair to grow
upon my head. I had been bald for years, and offered five hundred dollars,
for any medicine that would cause hair to grow. Enclosed find fi
