GOOD HORSE STABLES

How They Should BE Constructed, Ar
| ranged and Ventilated.
To have healthy and hearty horses,
due care must be taken to provide
them with suitable stables. These
should be warm. dry and well-ventilat-
ed. II the roof is of straw, let it be
matched 80 that it does not leak No
farmer can afford to have water leak
ing down upon his horses. Have first
roof that does not leak. next see that
the sides of the stable are free from
cracks, SO that there will be no draft
upon the horses. Have the ventilators
80 that they are under your control.
After you have good roof and tight
sides. properly ventilated and lighted.
it is proper to consider the floor
of the stable. This will keep
the feet Of the horse in good con-
dition. and needs only to be kept
level by filling in the holes made by
the stamping of the feet of the horses.
If you have an earth floor be sure to
keep it free from ridge over which
the horse must hang when it lies down.
The next best floor is made of blocks
of wood, such as are used in paving
city streets. If the stable is not put
on the ground level, of course floor
will need to be of plank. OF whatever
the stable floor is made, have a drain.
This will facilitate keeping the horses
clean, and the stable clean and
healthy. Have the stalls wide enough
to allow the horses to lie down COM
fortably. It is well to have the parti-
tions high enough to prevent the
horses reaching each other. Be sure
to have no projections in the stable
upon which horses can hurt themselves
in lying down or raising their heads.
This will necessitate' having the cell
ing high enough to clear their
heads when they jerk up suddenly.
Have the feed-box and rack just high
enough to allow the head to be in
natural position while eating. Have
both these so arranged that there will
be no waste of grain or hay. To save
time in feeding have grain bin and hay
handy to stable. When the stable if
made comfortable. convenient and
healthy, see that the surroundings are
the same. Don't have a great pile of
manure just in front of the door, Have
small drain to carry the water from
the stable. so that it may be ap-
preached handily, and at the same time
more healthful, because free from stag
nant water. Spring is the best time
of the year to put the stable in good
shape.-Agricultural Implement and
Hardware. -.4t..-..

In the Treatment of All It's Varieties Rest
-! L. Absolutely Essential. ..... -
A, correspondent asks US about
paresis-its symptoms, treatment and
durability, and whether it might come
to a young man of twenty-one who had
been very greatly taxed with study.
business and anxieties?
Paresis is an incomplete form of pa
ralysis. It may be quite slight. or may
rise in degree almost up to complete
ness. The cause. symptoms and treat
ment of both diseases are essentially
the same, and even paralysis may be
durable. We shall, therefore, speak
of paralysis in general rs T. :
u This affection may have its existing
cause in the brain, in the spinal cord,
or in the nerves themselves. away
from both the nervous centers, in
which case it is called peripherai pa
.ralysis- --.----....--
Periphera1 paralysis may result from
destructive injury to a nerve, or a
pressure upon it, or from some disease
affecting it The connection in these
cases is cut off between the muscles
and their cerebral, or spinal, center.
Spinal paralysis may be caused by
an injury of the spinal cord. In this
case, the paralysis is below the injury.
There may also be- a degenerative dis
ease of more or less of the cord, which
'interferes with the, free flow of the
nervous currents to the muscles from
the centers of volution in the brain.
The strange gesticulations of ''loco-
motor ataxian are due to this cause.
Among the causes of cerebral paraly-
sis are Instructions to arterial circula-
ton in the brain by. emboi (bits Of
coagulum)' carried. into the smaller
blbod-vessels, most often from the
heart; blood clots from minute hemor-
rhages; pressure from over-distended
cerebral arteries. and from tumors.
