Nail Wounds in Horses, Feet.

Compiled by U 5. Department of Ag
riculture from Publications OF Ag-
ricultural Experiment Stations)
1t has long been known that nail
pricks and other similar injuries in
the horses hoof may lead to an in
lection followed by the formation of
pus under the horn or the foot. and
serius general disease OF the horse.
or at least the loss or a hoof. In
bulletin of the South Dakota Station,
Moore has recently reported results
obtained in number of cases from
applying strict dnriseptic treat
ment to injuries of this sort. The
method consists in pairing away the
horn of the hoof from the affected part
until the blood ooZes out. The hoof
is then thoroughly washed in a solr-
ton OF blchiO!,dr OF mercury at the
rate of / part to 500 of water, aftef
which the absorbent cotton saturat
ed in a solution of the same strength
is applied to the wound and the whole
hoof is packed in cotton surrounded
by a bandage and well coated with
tar This prevents any further filth
from coming in contact with the
wound. The operation must usually
be done by a qualified veterinarian.
Subsequent treatment however. is to
pour a little OF the solution of BIZ
chloride of mercury on the cotton which
projects from the upper part of the
bandage. The cotton will absorb
enough of the solution to keep the
wound moistened and hasten the
healing process If a remedy of this
sort is not adopted in the case OF foot
wounds in the horse. the owner runs
considerable risk of serious infection
either OF blood poisoning or lockJaw.

DISCUSSED 1NTTRvENTION.
President Declares He Has NO Ideas OF
Annexation.

Washington, Oct Cuban inter-
vention was the principal subject at
today's cabinet meeting, but no defin-
lite announcement of the result of the
deliberations was given out. The
President stated to the cabinet tina.
the action taken by the American gov
eminent was destined solely for the
benefit of the people # the island.
with a view to a complete restoration
of order there and the protection CT
all interests.
He declared that he hal no su,h
motive in view as the annexation of
the island by the United States Whit
he wanted now was that the Cuhans
should be given another chance at
self government
Unless extraordinary conditions ARISE
no extra session OF Cong css will he
called to deal with the Cuban situa-
ton. as the President considers he has
ample authority to proceed In the
matter. 1t seems TO be well settled
that former Governor Magoon of the
Panama canal gone who has just re-
turned from Panama, will be appoin-
ted Governor of the provisional gov
eminent in succession to Secretary
Taft Both the president and Secreta-
ry Taft had in view the designation OF
Governor Beekman Winthrop. of Por-
to Rico. for this office.
The President, however, mas eX-
pressed the belief that he can better
spare Governor Magoon from his du.
ties in the Philippines. where he has
been appointed member Of tho Phil
ippine commission and vice governor
general of the islands, than he can the
services of Governor Winthrop for the
several months during which he ex-
poets the provisional government to
continue.
The President considered the posi-
bility Of the necessity of postpone
ment of his visit to Panama next
month because OF conditions in Cuba.
He does not think at this time, howev-
err, that there is any likelihood OF con-
ditions arising which will prevent his
going to Panama to make the tour
OF inspection of the canal work.
Should any evidences of unrest in
Cuba make their appearance as re-
suit of the American occupation.
