Mango in Cattle.

Bulletin No IA of the Nebraska Ex
pertinent Station treats on "Manee in
cattle and horses, and lice on hogs. "
1t gives the history of cattle mango in
the State, with illustrations Of affected
cattle and the mite causing the disease.
TIE bulletin describes infinitely the
symptoms found in herds affected with
mango, quoting also q number of authors
who have observed animals affected in
this country and in Europe. The treat
ment is described at length, giving the
methods that we're first used, when this
disease did not extend over such large
area, which usually consisted of hand
applications Of disinfectants. IL also
describes some Of the popular remedies
that were used at that time. and gives the
more modern way Of treating the disease,
namely, by the construction of dipping
tanks and the use Of vAriOua dips. The
bulletin gives the results Of dipping
with coal tar preparations, which have
been used with satisfactory results on
over 2. 900 head of cattle that we're bad
ly affected with mango. Failures after
thorough dipping are explained as being
due either to the solution not having
been sufficiently strong or to reinfection
after treatment. The bulletin also states
some of the advantages to be derived
from dipping. The author thinks that
the liberal use of dips will materially aid
in lessening the loss from abortion. be-
lieving that a large percentage of the
abortions occurring among cattle on the
range are due to a weakened condition
resulting from mango. He believes also
that large percentage Of the calves
that die very young from what is CON-
monty known as "calf cholera" do m
owing to the fact that they are born
weak aud are therefore more susceptible
to disease. The bulletin gives descrip
non oil cattle and pig dipping tanks, to

Horses Going Barefoot.

Comparatively few people are aware
that the farm horse can probably spend
much of his useful life without shoes.
The plough horse, the ad-power horse
and, when the feet are of the average
toughness, the general purpose farm
horse can go barefoot with decided ad-
vantage.
1t is law of nature that function makes
the organ, and this is remarkably true
in the case Of the hoof of the horse the
horn Of the barefoot horse becomes tough
er, more elastic, and retains, or, if it has
been lost, even regains its normal shape,
the frog develops and fulflls its Office Of
lessening conclusion and spreading the
quarters by rough use.
The carrying Of heavy shoes also i'm.
poses much work upon the muscular
system Of the animal, which is entirely
unrequired in most farm work. To es-
innate the amount Of work done in carry
ing two pairs of shoes multiply the
weight of the iron lifted each step by
the number of steps in mile, and the pro-
duct by the number Of miles Travelled in
an ordinary days work, and the force
required to lift many tons will repre-
sent the amount of energy expended.
To prepare the hoofs for a trial of
the barefoot condition remove the shoes
and shorten the horn il it has been al
lowed to grow long, but do not shorten
quite as much as is done when shoes are
to be applied, as a certain amount is to
be allowed for immediate wear. Next
with the rasp take of not exceeking one
quarter inch Of the outer edge Of the
wall; this will prevent the wall Of the
foot from breaking readily, as we'll as
prevent it being split away from its
union with the sole of the hoof.
Different animals feet will endure
different amounts Of wear without the
protection Of shoes this variation 10
directly with the condition of the foot
and the character and amount of work,
as well as the condition of the surface
over which the animal is obliged to
travel. Certain diseased feet, rs in some
cases of chronic founder, do very poorly
on hard roads without the profession Of
shoes. yet do we'll in field work aud are,
finally, much benefited by the change.
