Trouble From Teeth.
The teeth Of a young horse are often
the real causes Of troubles which the
owner explains in other ways. accord
ing to American Cultivator. Lampas,
or Hampers" a swelling of the gums,
is sometimes caused by interference of
the temporary teeth with the perma-
nent ones A little dental work will
straighten things out with far better
results than firing. 1t should be re-
membered that between the ages Of
two years and nine months to three
years the two central incisOrs are cast
to make room for two permanent In
cisors in their stead, for the former
were only fragile temporary foaPS
teeth and had fulfilled their purpose.
At or about the same time the first and
second temporary mOlars are shed and
are followed by the teeth intended for
life The shedding or casting Of these
temporary teeth takes place in the up
per and lower jawbones at the same
period. Therefore the colt at his third
year has sixteen permanent teeth. eight
in each jaw above and below-that is
to say. when dentition goes on regular

horses not feeding we'll at this period

? HINTS FOR
THE FEEDER

Stock will eat nearly any grain crop
or hay and digest part of such feeds.
The amount digcsted or used depends
largely on how the feeds are COM
bined. For instance, in feeding corn
to hogs the corn is much more thor
oughly digested if wheat bran, shorts.
skinned milk or alfalfa is fed at the
same feed. So with cattle, the corn
fodder, prairie hay or sorghum is bet
ter digested if cottonseed meal, wheat
bran or hay rich in protein is fed.
This forces the economic, practical
feeder to fix upon certain proportions
Of protein feeds and nonprotein feeds.
The digestive system demands it. 1t
may not suit our hmebOund ideas of
the case, but we are blind to our own
interests if we fail to work with ma
ture In our efforts to feed stock profit
ably. We impose hard conditions upon
our stock when we supply them with
feeds containing more than seven heat
and fat units to one of protein or flesh
forming units. Indigestion and power
ty of blood must result from such feed
pile in the trough. 1t is not bulk and
weight of feed that count; it is the nu-
tritious, digestible matter contained in
these grains and hays.
Corn For the Si1o.
The corn should be allowed to ma
ture, but not ripen, says L. w. Lighter
in Stockman and Farmer-that is, the
plant and ear should have made their
full growth. The grains are fully
formed and just beginning to harden,
so when you smash them the inside is
in a doughy condition. In week or
ten days it will assume mealy condi-
ton when crushed. If the plant is still
quite green. as it is sometimes in a wet
and cool season, it will cure all right in
the silo, but if the weather is hot and
the soil is dry the moisture will be car
ried out of the plant, and the leaves
will become dry, and there is not mois-
ture enough left in the corn to cure 1t
properly, and some will mold or at
times ''fire fang" becoming too hot be-
cause moisture to control the, fermen'
tation is lacking. On the other hand
the corn should not be taken when too
immature and watery. as the resulting
silage is likely to be sour and has
laxative effect on the animals that Is
not only unpleasant. but also injuri-
Gus. But in farm practice we cannot
always do just what is best for lack of
help or we have to wait on the outfit
until the other silo is filled at our neigh
boris, etc Should the corn become too
dry and ripe little water sprinkled on
The cut corn as it leaves the cutter viii
remedy the matter.
Pasture For Sheep.
Give sheep good pasture. often
changing from one field or range to an
other. not because the feed has become
short, but because they relish !; change
and do better by having it. If you
have but two fields don't let them run
in both at once but one ut Il tine. and
change them often from one 10 the oth-
er, provide good. clean water and plcn-
ty of salt both summer and winter;
also shelter from the heat, shelter

The farmers horse is apt to have
many days of comparative idlcness in
winter, days when the weather is such
that it is better that the team should
remain idle than be kept out Of doors.
If there are many such days in success
sion and they extend to weeks, it will
be advisable to lessen the food given
or reduce it's quality. The corn, crack
ed corn OF corn meal that has been
given with the oats may be dropped
and bran substituted, and the hay usu-
ally fed changed for clover or for a
good quality of oat hay or fine hay.
This will have much Of the renOyating
effect that is derived from Il week at
grass in the summer or fall after the
heavy work of the summer is over.
Even with this precautiOn it is we'll to
give tie horse a little exercise every
day Wien the weather is not too
stormy. The change in feed and the
exercise will prevent that very unpleas-
ant stocking up" or swelling of the
hind legs, and stiffcning of the joints
which so often come upon the highly
fed horse kept in idleness. These swell
ings are really more serious than they
appear, for while they disappear usu-
ally upon the return Of the busy days
they are more or less symptom Of
blood poisoning or an impure condition
Of the blood, and when it becomes ha-
bitual is looked upon as an unsOund-
ness. Many give diuretics, as resin,
cases, but their frequent use weakens
the urinary organs. and we prefer to
trust to a preventive, as above, and to
lamentations with warm water as re-
lief, with plenty of rubbing when the
case is very bad.
Feeding Work Horses.
In caring fer work horses l like tC
give them a drink of water the first
thing in the morning, then some hay
and finally their grain the last thing
before going to breakfast. BY letting
them eat hay awhile before feeding the
grain they are not quite SO hungry and
will not eat so fast. If there is some
thing in the stomach the grain seems
to digest better The horse will do more
and remain in better condition if work
ed steadily with short stops than he
will if hurried and allowed to stand
still long at a time. The last half hour
before quitting time he should have
short stops often; then when he gets to
the stable he can have some water. At
noon give hay while the driver gets his
dinner; then water and feed the grain.
Give a little water when they go out to
work if they want it,
At night the horses should have some
water when they come in. Then give
hay and afterward more water before
they have their grain. If one does not
feed the same at each feeding the
horses should have the largest amount
at night, when they are going to have
a long rest. I may seem OvercautiOus
about giving water, but the horse
wants plenty of it, only not too much
at time. If you will watch horses in
the yard you will see them go and
drink often and take little at a time.
In feeding horses one should watch
each animal, as the same rule will not
apply to all-Agriculturist.
