TREATMENT OF COLTS.


Nature furnishes the "pung colt
with liquid food, which is exactly
adapted to Its wants 1h" milk Of the
dam contains sugar forrespration and
TO keep up animal heat-ca>eln to
build up its muscles and bone-oiL t.
lubricate and cushion its joints, and
lay on tat to round out its form. The
nutriment of this food i, in solution,
requiring very slight amount OF di'
gestion to change it to blood The
feeder Of the young colt should make
the change from the mother milk a
little violent as possible; therefore it is
advisable, when that can be done to
teach the colt to drink cows milk al
weaving, and give it about four quarts
per day with other feed. The wean'
ing can be made very gradual BY CIV
ing two quarts Of COW milk with
quart Of bran twice per day, and after
little while give pint of oats, be-
sides grass. Early-cut and nicely
cured hay should be given when grass
is gone. and also few carrots, bee's
or turnps. These roots Will be an
almost perfect substitute for grass.
Grain should be givrn in very small
quantity at first and not usu-
ally more than two quarts Of oats per
day, during the first winter. But We
prefer food in semi-liquid state for
the colt, and think that bran and
cows milk are much better han oats
the first winter All green food is
much more easily digested than dried,
and, therefore, the roots are an excel
ent addition, and keep the stomach
and all the seCretions in healthy con-
dition. 1t is always found that 4
healthy, wcll-formed colt makes fine
progress when the dam yields good
supply Of milk. The intc,lig, Mt feeder
should Try to initiate nature, and fur
nish an abundant supply Of food 70 til"
colt, containing the same elements ]"
as soluble condition as possible sc
that this fine growth which the colt
made upon the milk of the dam shall
not be lost, but continued undiminish =
ed Very much depends upon the
first winter. Often an attempt to say"
few dollars in feed has resulted il
the loss of ten times the amount in thC
value of the horse grown. One cal
not afterwarl make up for {
deficiency at this period. Liberia
feeling and good care produce lib
raj return. The colt should have the
means Of exercise in the open air
each day, and its stall or stable shoult
: have a dry dirt floor with good bed
ding. Plank floors are the fruitfu
cause Of bad feet. - Minneapolis

Though what he owed 'em can't see);
She read EN- when she swept the litter,

He really warn't Christian critter.
He warn't so smart as some, perhaps;
The boys all thought him chicken hearted
Because he was so gentle like,
But once they got his dander started
The time they skinned the cat alive;
He walked right in, wal, should twitter
An just missed sknnln' them alive,
The queer and contradictions crtter.
He never did stroke O. work,

He just I'D set an write an spile
Paper enough to drive you crazy;
We'd hear him talkin' to himself,
An see his great big eye-balls glitter,
But nothin' ever came Of it

THE SOCIETY SNOR.
Peculiar Habits of a Very Peculiar Piece
of humanity.

Of humanity.
The society snob is generally very
harmless little creature; in fact. he j.
so Insignificant that he can not dc
very much damage. His little habit.
and customs. his microscopic intellect
even his tiny little plots and schemes
are of less Importance to the world al
large than pool of slush to man

He is generally small. effeminate
youth with 4 sky-terrier bang and thin.
colorless face. though sometimes he
has been known to be quite large
quite muscular, and even quite hand
some; but. in the latter case. he gen.
orally offsets his advantages by bein.
quite simple ard quite stupid.
During the daytime he is very rarely
noticeable. but as evening draws on lac
blossoms out; he puts on his dress-sui,
and he ties his necktie. the latter oper.

at party. you have a rare treat in
store. Watch him fit from "bud" tc

icate bit of sma.l-talk or rare smile. Is
he not polished gentleman of the
world?
Then. too. when the supper time
comes. notice the consummate skill
with which he leaves his partner in the
hands of a friend. and strikes bee
line for the supper table; then. If there
is wine. he is in his glory. He will
get in u corner with a few select
cronies and discuss the most OF
hostess with perfect freedom. airily
criticisc the supper. crack his feeble
