10. 9-FLAT SIDE OF HORSE SHOE

have no hesitation in pronoucing in
favor OF the fat shoe without calks or
heel ~ toe. concave on the ground sur
face and fat on the surface which con-
tracts the sole. as shown at Figs. and @
Whatever difference of opinion there
may be about the use of this kind OF
shoe in city work there is no room fol
doubt as to its advantages when worn
by the farm horse. If much work on
mud roads is to be performed shoes
should also be put on the hind feet.
Here there is less objection to the use Of
shoes with moderate calks, although lit
tie can be said in their favor. The shoes
should be readjusted and the feet
brought to their proper proportions at
least once in every five or six weeks.
The feet should be regularly cleaned out
with the hook as a part of the horses
daily grooming.

SPRING ADVICE.
Isclentlllc AInrnzlnn1


Be careful Of your diet. You do moi
need heavy food such as you require dur
ing the Winter.
Spring may be beautiful. but IL Is
treacherous. DO not let 1t deceive Won
into cold, a fever, malaria or pneu-
monia.
Do not throw off your Winter flannels
too early. 1t Is better to suffer a little
Inconvenience than to take cold.
If you feel tired, feverish or over
heated, do not rush off and take "Sprino
medicines. Cool yourself down and in
this way help your system and purify
your blood.
II you feel hot and thirsty, do NOT
drink large quantities of water or other
long" drinks. 1t Is much better to take
little pure whiskey and water which
will quench the thirst, tone the system
and fortify against disease.
Remember that only pure whiskey
should ever be taken into the system,
and that the leading chemist and scien-
lists OF the present day unite in declar-
ing that Dutfy's Pure Malt is absolutely
the purest and best.
