Wounds ON Horses.

Every wound or sore on the horse
should be washed daily with an anti
septic solution. If this is done the
wound will heal quicker than If left
alone and there will be no danger Of
the sore getting worse and finally caus-
ing the death Of the animal. The best
antiseptic solutions are made from the
coal tar preparations-carb acid,
etc. These may be mixed with water
in the proportion Of one to eight. If
these are not handy, borax used in the
water or sprink.ed on the wound i'm
mediately after washing it is good
antiseptic. West Virginia Experiment

A frightful accident occurred this
morning in this city when Louis, the
four-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.

wounds from a large torpedo which
exploded while being held bet ween
his teeth. The child's parents were
absent when the accident occurred,
having gone berry picking early
in the morning, Thesch was at
play in a room by himself at the time
OF the accident. The explosion of
the torpedo burned and rent the

Horses and Their Care

No sensible farmer can expect to
raise profitable crop by planting good
seed in impoverished or unfertile soil;
neither is it possible to make horse
breeding profitable by mating inferior
mares with the best Of stallions.-Horse
Breeder.
Value of Good Blood.
1t should be the aim Of every farmer
who raises horses to breed up Every
generatiO of horses should prove su-
perior to the preceding one. It will be
if proper care is used in the selection
Of brood mares and stations
Keep Collars Clean.
Horse collars need frequent examina-
tons at this season. A good animal
may be seriously injured by neglecting
the collar.
Barbed Wire Dangers.
Not an inch Of barbed wire should
ever be allowed on q farm where horses
are kept. Never allow brood mares or
colts or FLIES to run in a pasture where
any of the cruel stuff can be found.
Many good colts have been killed from
cuts received from barbed wire, and
many others have received scars that
will disfgure them for life
The Tvo-year-o1d Colt
In caring for a twO-year-Old colt 7
would feed one quart Of cornmeal,
quart of bran, with plenty of good hay
twice day, and a roomy box stall,
bedding enough to keep it clean and no
more, writes a farmer in Rural New
Yorker Too much bedding and ma
nure left in the stall will make the
floor uneven. | would never tie, but
let it run at will in the stall, and turn
out three or four hours a day if the
weather permits. For such care and
feed / would think $25 for the winter
would be about right and for the sum-
mer in good pasture, without grain
feed-pasture only-for 81 to $40. At
all times see that the feet are in good
shape and do not grow out too long.
The Valuable Brood Mare.
One animal too rarely found on the
farm is the good brood mare. Her
offspring. if from good sire, will al
ways bring fair prices in the market,
and climatic conditions in the south
west are almost ideal for breeding
some classes Of horses.-Farm and
Ranch.
The Horses Sunday Feed.
When horse is working hard and
highly fed all the week he should have
his food reduced on Sunday, and one
meal should be bran mash. If he gets
his regular amount of food he should
have some exercise.-Ontario Institute
Bulletin.

PARALYSIS IN PIGS.
Cause and Symptoms of the Disease.
Prevention and Remedy.

Nearly all hog raisers have had ex-
perience of paralysis among the hogs
of their herds The Kansas expert
ment station recently issued bulle
tin that deals with the cause of the
disease and the remedies. 1t says:
The cause has been found to be from
overfeeding young growing pigs on AMI
exclusive diet of corn and water Fatl
is put on the pigs rapidly, with the:
result that the weak bones Of a grow
ing pig cannot support the rapidly puts
on flesh. The first symptoms noticed
are that the pigs refuse their feed andT
walk rather stiffly, continuing to grow
worse until they can barely raise them
selves upon their front legs. The pigs
die Of starvation, as they cannot drag
themselves to the trough.
To prevent young pigs getting sick
a very small quantity of corn should
be fed them while nursing their moth
ers. Then gradually increase the
amount Of corn When weaned, feed
ground feed or bran, shorts and corn
and little bone meal mixed with suf-
fcient milk to make a thin slop.
After young pigs are paralyzed it is
best to take all corr away from them
and see that they sire placed at al
trough of milk in which has been stir
red bran and the following tonic,
which is recommended by the bureau
Of animal industry as preventive
against hog cholera and swine plague

| of the taxes for the year 1902, the for
mer lessee must have been obligated
to pay the 1901 taxes also. These 100.
| taxes are. not credited in the account
collected the taxes for the year 1901
although I have been unable to posi-.
lively verify this, owing to my inability
to find the japanese (Fugimoto), said
former lessee.
The accounts show that the trustee
effected fire insurance upon the build
ings of the property in the sum of 81
10000: (a) May 13, 1901, to May 13. 1902
premium, $4,000; (b) May 13, 1902, to
May Is, 1903, premium, $4,000
AS has already been stated, the lease
of 5. Ueda obligates the lessee to pay
for fire insurance in the sum of 81
10000, which insurance was included in
the above 81, 4OO.O 90 policy.
The account shows that for insurance
from 1902 to 1903 the trustee paid only
one-half of the premium, or $500, the
lessee living paid the other one-half-
$500; while for the year 1901 to 1902 the
the trustee paid the whole premium of
$4,000, which latter sum is $500 in ex-
cess of what the estate should have
borne.
There should have been reimburse
ment in the sum of $500 to the estate
by the lessee for insurance 1901-1902
and l therefore recommend that the
trustee be surcharged with the sum of
$500 on this account.
II appears from the accounts. and in
quiries of insurance agents, that the
trustee allowed the insurance on the
premises to lapse after May 10, 1903
Yet, Notwithstanding this fact, the
trustee compelled the said lessee. S.
Ueda, to pay for fire insurance of ST.
10000 on his leased building, receipts for
which he holds, as hereinbefore stated,
for premiums 1903 to 1904 and 1904 to
1905. in the sum of $500 each, Or $50. 90.
would respectfully recommend that
the trustee be directed to refund this
sum of $4,000 to the said lessee, S.
Ceda, for the reason that payment was
made for insurance that did not in real
ty exist, and which was not, in fact,
effected.
I would also recommend that the
axes collected from Fugimoto and S.
Ueda for the years 1902, 1903 and 1904
Viz: s4S.70, and that he be required to
account for these taxes as to the year
sol.
L would further recommend that the
rustee be required to account for re-
,eipt, repayment of Goo Yau Chung
Dan. which, from the interest account
ID for, I assume to be 10000 This
TEN was omitted from schedule of dis
