A remedy for founder in horses is commu-
Aieated to the lows Homestead. There are
Two veins in the head of horse which run
down En- each side of the eye, coming to
gether an inch and a half or two inches
below it-some quite prominent and others
less distinct. When founder takes place, the
main vein below the eye is to be punctured
with the point of a sharp knife or other ia
misunderstanding on the veins under both
eyet alike. This treatment ia said to effect q
certain cure in the course of twenty four
hoars. Blood should be drawn quite freely.

How TO FIT COLLARS TO HoRsKs'
SHOULDERS i, is very important tc
have collar fit nicely and spugly to the
shoulders Of the horse. II enables him
to do work with great deal more ease,
and TO apply great deal more strength.
It prevents calling and wounding. ss
the friction is avoided. Collars are so
made. or should be made, as 10 throw
the chief force on the lower part OF the
shoulder. But We started out 10 tell our
readers how to make a new collar fiji the
shoulder Of the horse. The collar should
be purchased Of the proper size just be-
fore putting i! on. the first lime, immerse
it in water. letting it remain about a
minute. and Immediately put it on the
horse. being careful to have the names
SO adjusted at the top and bottom, as to
fit the shoulder. and then put the horse
to work. The collar being wet will adapt
itself to the shoulder, and should dry on
the horse. When taken off it should BE-
left in the same shape it occupied on the
horse, and ever after you will have snug
fitting collar and no wounds. Talley

Have house Oh high situation, go th,

the middle of il large enough to hold th,
quantity of potatoes that you wish to keep
dig your potatoes when the ground is dry
put them in the cellar the same day you
dig them, put plauks over the cellar and
eight iuches Of dirt on the planks so as to
keep out the air; then three feet of shueks
or straw on that. Don't let the air 10 until
