1t will be benefit rather than q detri-
ment. Colts which have it are general
iy immune thereafter II there is a
serious outbreak, the best remedy is to
apply salve or poultices to the affected
parts. One of the best salve mixtures
is olive oil, four parts and acetic acid,
one part Battle the swollen parts
freely twice each day with this mix
ture. AS poultice, nothing is better
than hot bran, using about half gal
Ion of the bran for each horse. To this
should be added two tablespoonful of
the following mixture: Neatsfoot oil,
one quart; spirits Of camphor, eight
ounces; pulverized mustard, six
ounces.
The illustration accompanying this
article shows how the bandage should
be fastened on the head. Take COM
mon grain sack and cut the ends into
four strips, but leave the middle of the
sack whole.
Place the poultice on white cloth
under the swollen part, then under 1t
place the whole part of the sack, says
Journal Of Agriculture. Securely sew
the ends of the strips together over
the top of the head, allowing one band
to rest in front of the eyes, another
between the eyes and ears and the
remaining two over the neck back of
the ears.
One-fourth of pint of Glauber salts
may be administered twice each day
in the soft feed. If there is great
deal of fever, give half teaspoonful
Of iodide of potash once each day in
ehe food.

PIG RATlons AND RESULTS.
What Has Been Determined by Exper
iments in Connecticut.

The Storrs agricultural experiment
station of Connecticut gives in bull
letin 43 the following conclusions on
pig feeding rations:
The pig among farm animals is
noted for his great capacity for as
similation. But with the animal the
economy of gain is greatly affected by
the character of the ration.
One lot of three pigs required 2,739
pounds of skim milk containing $50
digestible nutrients for 100 pounds of
gain. Eight lots, of rs pigs required
1886 pounds of skim milk and 253 Of
shorts. containing 25S pounds of d.
gestible nutrients, for 100 pounds Of
gain. And one lot of three pigs re-
CURED 445 pounds of shorts contain
ing 294 pounds of digestible nutrients
for 100 pounds of gain.
Milk is an easily digestible food.
When fed alone in the above trials,
100 pounds of gain were made from
the least amount (230 pounds) of di.
gestible nutrients. When shorts were
substituted for portion of skim milk,
more nutrients CESS pounds) were re-
Quired for 100 pounds gain in weight.
When shorts were fed alone the most
nutrients 1894 pounds) were re-
quired for the same gain.
The reader should bear in mind
that the financial problem is not here
considered. 1t is admitted that while
skim milk is easily digested, it Is too
bulky In character. The capacity OF
the pig to digest and assimilate is
greater than its capacity to consume
this watery fluid. At ordinary mar
ket prices, pound Of digestible nutri.
ents would cost twice as much in skim
milk as in shorts. Experience shows
that from a financial standpoint, the
most economical gains are made when
skim milk and grain are fed in the
proportion of three-fourths to one. But
the trials show, from physiological
standpoint, that less nutrients are re-
quired for given gain when the ra'
ton consists Of easily digested foods
The conclusion seems warranted that
| the food requirements for maintenance
and for production (milk or growth)
| depends not only upon the composition
and digestibility of ration but also
| upon the facility with which 1t Is di
gested and assimilated.

Individual Hog Houses.

The folly of keeping a large mum.
Der of hogs in small Enclosure is
shown by the unusual fatality this
season. The old notion that hogs
could take most any sort Of treatment
has been responsible for heavy losses
this season. Hogs are subject to
colds and lung troubles. Whenever
we permit them to crowd into tight
sheds, In large numbers, we are invit.
Ing such calamity. The sensible way
to house either hogs or the breeding
sows, is to build small houses and
scatter them about the fields. With
narrowing sows, each one should be
provided with an individual house, but
with the other hogs six or eight can
bunk In one Of these houses very
nicely. Build half-dozen or more
and try them.

It is not what horses are worth
now, but what they are likely to be
worth four years from now that should
regulate the number OF colts to be
raised next year.
1t is almost impossible to destroy

should chickens be allowed to roost

Keen Good Horses.

We know a farmer who has over
$1,000 invested In old plug horses
Ringbones, spavins. wire cuts, curbs
and blemishes are noticeable. He has
ten head and none of them can be de
pended on for decent days work. He
has neighbor who has three horses,
free from blemishes. which cost him
$500, but with these three horses he
can do more work In season on a
third of the feed than the man who
has ten head At the present price
of feed, a horse is not worth keeping
unless he is a good one and able to
do lots of hard work.

Sheep Are Best Producers.

Prof. F. B. Mumford Of the Mis-.
souri, experiment station says that
sheep produce more meat from d
lound of grain than any other class
If farm animals. In fact, pound of
mutton can be produced from about
half as much grain as a pound of beef.
Even Missouri's mostgage-lifting hog
requires more grain to produce a
pound of human food than the sheep.
With the combination of corn and
clover hay for feed, the dry shed for
shelter, sheep will always give good
account of themselves and respond
readily to the care given them.

CURING pIsTEMPER.
How This Infectious pl3ease Should
| Be Dealt With.

Distemper is an infectious disease
and can be prevented IL the quarters
are kept free from the infection. Wash
Ing the trough with soft soap suds or
carbolic acid solution twice each
month, whitewashing the stall at least
once each month and occasionally
scrubbing the floors of the stalls are
measures which will generally prevent
an outbreak. In addition to this the
animal should have an abundance Of
exercise and pure air. 1t is known that
an animal which is allowed the run Of
a pasture is not so liable to the dis
ease as one which is confined to
the stalls in poorly ventilated barn.
If the disease is light, it need not be
the cause of any particular alarm, as

Those who keep sheep, and espe-

to house them too closely. The chief
protection that the mature sheep
wants is from winds and falling

will usually prefer to lie in the yard.

lie within by shutting them In at
