LICE ON LIVE G

Prof. Verrill, in one Of the reports Of the
Connecticut Board of Agriculture, says one
of the best, simplest, and softest washes for
destroying external parasites Of animals,
oman included) is a solution of %sulphuret OF
potassium in water-two to four ounces in
a gallon of water-varylng the strength &C
cording to the age and tenderness Of the
skin of the animal. The solution Will com
tain some free potash, which might irritate
the skin, if too strong. Otherwise there is
no danger in its use, though 1T has a disa-
greeable smell. Another equally useful
preparation is easily made of quick lime,
Stacking it in water until it forms a thick,
milky solution. Into this put as much flour
Of sulphur as will dissolve by boiling for
some time. The result will be a deep yell
low solution, which is very efectual. Care
full application of gasoline will always ban
ish lice, ticks, ETC., with no injurious effects
to the skin or ANIMAL este,n Rural.

AMERICAN SHEEP.

The special characteristics OF improved
American sheep, are thus described by the
San Francisco Bulletin:
AS a country becomes thickly populated
and lands increase in value, the necessity
for a type of sheep that will produce NUT
ton as we'll as wool, becomes more appar-
ent. In such a country wool alone will not
pay. As a rule, manufacturers increase
with the population of the country, and the
demand of raw material for manufacturing
are modified by the conditions Of that coun-
try. Thus, as it becomes the more necessa-
ry to produce a longer.fibered wool in Or
der that the same animal may produce
good meat, the wants of manufacturers are
made to correspond to circumstances. The
fashions are changed, and coarse cloths are
substituted for the finer.
The United States has shown a partially
to the real old Spanish type of the Merino
sheep. American breeders have, however,
TO some extent, followed the same course
pursued by French breeders. They nave
bred to produce a larger and more compact
carcass, and a staple at once longer and
stronger and better adapted to the demands
Of modern manufactures. LIN these efforts
we nave succeeded to a gratifying extent.

THE WAY GERMAN HORSES ARE FED.

The horses of the German army are now
fed with biscuits. These consist of thirty
parts OF rye flour, and ten parts of lilseed
flour sometimes Of wheat flour, twenty
parts OF corn meal, twenty parts of rye
flour, ten parts Of grated bread, and ten
parts of linseed flour. The ingredients are
made into biscuits. The first named MKT
ure is the best. These biscuits are made
with a hole in the middle of each, SO they
can be strung on a string and hang to the
saddle bow, or be carried by the trooper
around his waist. Each biscuit weighs
when baked dry and hard about two ounces.
Seven biscuits are broken up and given to
the horses in the morning, molstened with
water ii convenient, otherwise dry-twelve
at noon and seven at night. After careful
experiment in camp, on the march and
campaigning, they are reported by all the
cavalry and artillery officers to be better
than oats. A trooper can easily carry 80
pounds OF these biscuits, which will fur
nish his horse with full rations for eight
days, or will serve, with forage, for twelve
days hard marching.

LAME HORSES.

Although the horse is one of the most
powerful. ambitious and sensible of all our
domestic animals, yet, in a certain sense, it
is far from being a hardy one. In this re-
spect the horse is not equal to the rough
and-tumble usage which the mule or even
the OK can bear without exhibiting marked
signs of the severe discipline to which it has
been subjected. The horse is a very deli
cate animal, and If pounced uponi in passion
while encountered with the harness, and
possibly with a load too heavy for easy
movement, the chances are that efforts to
escape punishment will result i'll such an
over-tension OF the muscles as to produce
lameness. Rough, cruel men arc not fit to
take care Of an animal having the spirit,

THE PIG.

Black or fesh-colored pigs are freest
from skin diseases in hot climates. The
choice is practically between the Essex and
Berkshires for males with which to improve
the native stock of hardy grubbers Of the
root-or-die variety. Those who have tried
the former are delighted at first, but after a
few years begin to recall their longing for
the lean hams and slim but solid and flavor
Gus bacon Of the old %race-horse breed. The
trouble wit the Essex pigs for the South is
that they are the eat-and-sleep to sleep-and-
awake to-eat kind, and their grades are, of
course, like them. The side fat is superb,
and so is their leaf lard, and SO far the
breed is all that could be desired but the
ham and shoulders are too fat for profit,
and the ham is not marbeled with fat like
the Berkshires. These (the Berks) are
much more wide awake, less easily con-
trolled, but good toragers. Their grades
are a wonderful improvement upon the orig,
inal stock, may be made very fat, and yet
the propol tons between the fat and lean
hams, shoulders and side pork or bacon, is
is such as to preserve the excellencies of the
meat. The hams are large and rich and
Juicy, with diffused fat. Berkshires are not
so easily fattened when penned and system
matically fed as the Essex grade but they
will Jake much better care of themselves in
the woods, and when pennel or fastened
for fattening, may be finished off with hall
the feed the .'original pixies would re-
quire.
With many Northern and Western breed
ers the Essex is more profitable pig than
the Berkshire. because his nature leads him
TO take little exercise, SO that all he eats
goes to his flesh and fat. Respiration,
which, if rapid, reduces fit greatly, is will
him never accelerated BY moving about, and

AMERICAN T"HoRoUGHBREDs.


The London Field in an article on thor
oughbred horses concludes as follows;
In England we have never gudged the
victories CALAMITY won upon our race
courses by foreign rivals but, upon the
principle that ''blood is thicker than wa
ter,' we have never brought ourselves to
regard cur American kinsmen as foreigners.
Admiral Rous once remarked that our mot
to has always been, "Let the best morse
win - and if ever the day shall arrive when
an American color catches the judges eye
in the great race at Epson or Doncaster, 1t
needs no prophet to foretell that the heart
lest of English cheers will ascend to greet
the winner. Within the last century, thou
sands upon thousands Of American dollars
have been paid for English thoroughbreds.
and there is no reason why the descendants
of such superb sires as Diomed, Priam,
Glencoe, Scythian, Fly by Night, Leaning
ton, Trustee and Bonnie Scotland should
not return to the country which gave birth
to their progenitors, aud successfully emu
late their powers upon the British turf.
California, 1.-THE golden %state,' boasts that
her climate is especially adapted for the
raising of fleet thoroughbreds, and, with
the rapid growth of her wealth, she will
not long be without her representative own
ers of horses in the country which has still
no rival in the equine world. 1t is, indeed,
maintained by Mr.. Frank Morris-who is
the finest judge of racing in the United
States, and whose horses are now under the
care OF Mr.. Pryor, by whom Pryoress,
Starke and Umpire were trained in England
Tor Mr.. Ten Broeck-that the conditions OF
soil and climate under which thoroughbreds
are bred in the New World make it proba-
Bile that the prediction uttered by the COM
pliers of our Stud Book in 1922 is soon like
" to be verified upon our own ~race-courses.
An American stallion, Preakness, brought
to this country by Mr.. Sanford, has passed
into the possession of the Duke Of Hamil-
ton, and his progeny may not i%mprobably
make theirmark, before another year has
flown, among their English compeers. The
time is at hand when the colors of Ameri.
cans will be as we'll known at EPSON and
Newmarket as those of Count Lagrange.
and it is to the credit OF Englishmen that
our races are open without jealousy to the
competition of strangers. whether hailing
from France, Germany, Hungary, or from
our latest rival, the United States.

tenderness and susceptibility pertaining to
the horse. Were such men less frequently
trusted with the management OF stable
stock, there would be fewer limping and
comparatively worthless horses on our pub
lie thoroughfares. The greatest care, it is
true, cannot prevent accidents to horses,
but with proper attention the hating ones
would constitute the exception, and not the
rule, as is now too often the case.
