Foor Ror IN SHEEP.-ProfcssOr Stalker,
of the Iowa Agricultural College, gives
10 rhe Homestead The following cure FOR
foot rot in sheep: "The following Will
apply to the majority OF eases OF simple
foot rot: All loose flakes OF horn should
h.. carefully pared OF and the boots
trimmed to proper shape. The loot
should be thoroughly cleaned and done
AID IN tar banGage. We simply put on
far and bandage with Il bit of strong cloth.
If there is much liberation, chronic sore
having beer formed, touch the surface
with solution, one part Suiphuric OF
hvdrocloric acid and three parts water.
Dress as above. The animal should be
kept where as little wet aud filth Us pos
sible will reach the feet"
LOOK AFTER THE WEEELS.-The sever
est strain, in the cart, wagon or carriage,
comes upon the wheels. The teiloes, es-
reciallv, are exposed to alternate mud anu
drouth according to the prevailing wealth
er. The paint soon airs OF, anu the
wood absorbs the water from every mud
puddle through which the vehicle Is
driven. In dry time the wood shrihks
and the tire gets loose. The remedy Is
new setting of the tire, and bill from the
blacksmith. 1t is much cheaper TO clean
up the carriage occasionally, ana SIve the
wheels Il dressing of iinSeed oil, as hot as
il can be put on. The wood will absorb
a good deal of the oil and will swell the
rim so as to make the tire tight. 1t VIII
prevent the rottng Of the wood and make
long-lived wheels. When the wheels have
soaked up all the oil theJ will take, put
on a COOL coat of paint.
