Management of Colts in Winter.

Our long northern winters are try
ing seasons for colts, which have to
be kept in stalls most of the time. If
kept standing on plank floors, they
fail to get the exercise that they need
to keep their muscles in active growth
and promote their general health.
The hoofs do not have a chance to be
worn off by use in travelling, become
long and the feet by long standing
become feverish and tend to become
diseased. If the colts are grained
much, as is often the case, without
exercise, the danger of trouble with
the feet is increased and the whole
system is likely to get into an I'M
healthy condition. Every one who
keeps colt should have yard where
it can be turned out daily even though
only for a short time, to take needed
exercise. In pleasant weather it can
be allowed to be out much of the
time and in stormy weather a few
minutes daily will be much better than
standing still all day. Many colts
are spoiled by overlooking and INSULT
Gent exercise. The owners are anx-
ious to have them grow rapidly, con-
sequently feed them generously, but
are too busy to attend to exercising
them and they soon get "out of con-
dition" as it is called, and then are
likely to become diseased. If colts
are properly fed, well exercised and
we'll cared for, they will seldom be
sick or ailing in any way.

Our readers cannot be too cautions
in the matter of investing money in
Western farm mortgages, the securi-
iy of which is often an unknown prob
lem. Good safe investments in this
line undoubtedly exist, but there are
so many irresponsible concerns en-
gagged in selling these so-called secu-
rites as to cast a cloud of suspicion
over the business. Speaking of West
ern farm mortgages, says the Indus
trial Journal: can inquiring mind
has developed the following from the
town and county records of Phelps
County, Neb. l. That the number
of farms in the county at the begin
ming of the present year was 1859,
and the number of mortgages in force
Dec. 1 was POSI-. 2. That the as
sessed value of the land was $751;
542, and the amount of mortg ages
was S ,O91, 1929. Were ever figures so
significant as thes e ?"-Cultiudtor.

What is ScrOfula

1t is that impurity in the blood, which, accumu-
iating in the glands of the neck, produces I'M
slightly Jumps or swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, nose, often
causing blindness deafness; which is the origin
of pimples, cancerous growths, many other
manifestations usually ascribed to " humors-
1t is a more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for serofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient
it is the most general of all diseases affections,
for very few persons entirely free from it:
How can it be cured2 By taking Hoods sarsa-
oarilla which, by the cures it has accomplished
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections of the blood
Hoods Sarsaparilla is unequalIed, and some of the
cures it has effected really wonderful, III you
suffer from scrofula in any of its various forms,
be sure to give Hoods SarsapariIla a trial.
