A FARMER INVENTION.
Device to Prevent Cows From Suck.
ing Themselves.

J. l.. Coe "A prominent farmer, who
has been a resident of Mannsyille
section for the past twenty years, has
succeeded In patenting preventative
which will keep cows from sucking
themselves and which should be a
great assistance in weaving calves
Mr.. Coe had his patent ON exhibi.
ton In Ardmore today, having just
received the papers from the patent
office.
The preventative is constructed Of
straight hollow piece of silver
steel, which fits In the calls mouth
like bit In this bit several small
holes have been cut Two pieces OF
steel, also hollow and projecting from
either side OF the bit, also with holes
in them are the other remaining
pieces of the device The bit is fast.
cred ON by light headstall
with such an apparatus 1t Is i'm.
possible for calf or COW to suck
as the holes let in the air. At the
same time the animal can drink wat
er as when drinking the bit and all
hte holes are under the water and the
air excluded from the mouth.
The idea is novel one, and is said
to work admirably.
Mr. Coe will Immediately make ar
rangements to have his patent manu-
factured and put on the market.
