To Prevent Bruises From the Harness,

flow of blood is checked, the vessel walls

muscles are also bruised and weakened
When the pressure is suddenly removed

Thus originate the soft, fuctuatlng
swellings often appearing upon the col
lar rest. If these accumulatlons are not
removed, either through absorption or
through an incision in the skin, there
results permanent enlargement from
callous formation.
When the injury is only to the skin
and underlying muscular tissue, an in
famation is melted that results in a
breaking down of the tissues at the af-
fected point. In natures attempt to re-
build, there is an excess of material de-
posted, and thickening Of the part re-
suits unless intelligent treatment is
given.
The sores that result in sloughing
away Of some parts are caused either by
the excessive heat arising from friction
of the harness, or by killing Of the
parts from cutting off the blood supply
through long continued pressure.
An understanding of these processes
enables one to alleviate the conditions
favoring them. The same collar should be
used on horse, provided it is a good
one, so as not to be continually shifting
the pressure, then put horse to heavy

excellent plan to have an old cloth at

the perspiration from the shoulder. A
young man Of my acquaintance uses his
shirt sleeve for this purpose, and he al
ways has fine looking team, with never
a sore on them. On removing the har
ness, battle the parts upon which the
harness has rested heavily with cold
water; this contracts the muscles and
tends to prevent Inflammation and swell

sauces before being made up into their

favored in various ways, SO as to adapt
them to the tastes Of consumers. The
tastes Of consumers vary in different To-
cslties, and to make his goods to suit is
the business of the manufacturer. Each
manufacturer has his own secret recipes,
which are handed down from father to
son. Tastes differ, even among people
of various occupations. Miners, for in
stance, want a very strong tobacco,
with scent and flavor which another
class do not relish. Outdoor workers In
general like stronger tobacco for smok-
ing and chewing than indoor folks.
Nearly all tobaccos, in fact, are doc

and even necessary. One object of it is
to make tobacco keep better. Without
such treatment it would become so much

bacco in order to make it burn we'll.
The leaves intended for chewing are
STEPPED in licorice or other gum, in order
that the plug shall have the requisite
consistency and sweetness. Mucilaglnous
substances in small quantities are added
to cigarette tobacco, so that the parti-
Giles may hold together and not fall out
of the paper wrapper. Some pipe tobac-
cos are heavily charged with perfumes
by treating them with essential oils of
rose, verbena, chronicle, bergamot, cas-
STA, musk, and catechu
1t is not true that cigarettes are COM
monty charged with opium and other
injurious drugs. However, they are
favored with essences Of various plants,
such as vanilla, cascarilla, stramonium,
coffee, valerian and tea. Occasionally a
few tea leaves are mixed with the to-
bacco. These flavors are matters of
fancy, and women particularly select

the manufacturers of tobacco Among
those most noted are the lemon, the

to smoking tobacco.
