QUERIES AND ANSWERS

By j. G. GerneyhouEh, d. W, S. b. S.
Query No. 1. In feeding a colt cows
milk. should anything be added; IL so,
what?
Answer. A little sugar and about
one-fourth water should be added to
the cows milk before it is fed to the
foal.
Query No 2. have dog which had
distemper. and now it has an affection
of its hind legs. which causes the ami
NAL to Jerk the legs all of the time.
Please tell Inc what the trouble is and
what to do for the same.
Answer. Your dog has what is term
ed chorea. or st. yitus dance. and there
Is nothing to be done for the same IL
1t has been of long standing. Good
food and attention is about all that
can advise for this disease which
is as a rule sequel to distemper or
some other constitutional disease.
Query No. 8. Does 1t injure the hair
to clip a horse in the fall. or should
he be clipped In tho SPRING.
Answer. Where a horse has very
long hair. which Is apt to get wet when
the horse is worked fast and thus
will remain wet for hours after the
animal has been put into tho stable.
In the fall OF the year think 1t a
very good plan 10 clip the horse and
then use blanket. But do not think
a horse should ps clipped in the spring
of the year for two reasons. First.
the long hair is coming off naturally
in the spring. thus there is no use
of clipping 1t, nrd again IL you do
clip horse in the spring you expose
the very young tender hair, which Is
about ready to come out for the spring
coat, and 1t looks rough all summer as
a result of its carly exposure. Tho
fall is The only limo a horse should
be clipped unless you have some par
ticular reason for getting rid of the
hair faster than it will be shed, as In
the case of an animal which is In

f CARE FOR MARE AND FOAL

the blue grass section many farmers
do not feed their mares any grain
during grass season, but simply allow
the mare with the young foal to get
her living IN the pasture. Neverthe-
less, this is not the proper method; the
mare with foal by her side should
day every day, 1t matters not IL she Is
not being worked. but is on good
pasture.
Many mares will keep fat while
sucking foal. but the foal Will not
grow and develop as I should, be-
cause the mares milk Is too poor to
give the ioal the proper nourishment.
A gallon OF wheat bran day and two
quarts OF oats mixed, IL the mare
Is running en- good pasture and NOT
being worked, will often make the
foal develop into good. thrifty year
ling. when, without this extra feed, cs-
pecially grain, the yeariins would
have been from one-half to size
smaller.
While it may be all right to allow
the foals to follow the mares to the
field in some cases, yet as rule I
think Better results will be gotten II
the foals are placed in a good we'll
Boxed stall while the mother is at
work. The foal should. however. be
allowed 20 get to the mother for milk
at least once every four or six hours
during the day for the beneft and the
comfort of The mother as well as the
foal. Never allow a foal TO nurse when
the mare is very warm.
Ono advantage in breeding mares In
the fall instead of the spring of the
year is that the foals are born during
the time when the mares will be
stabbed. while the foals are yet nurs
ing, thus the little fellows Will be
allowed to learn to eat grain out of
the mothers trough daily, and Will
soon learn also TO pick hay with its
mother, the result being that when the
following spring comes the foal is
now a colt, or filly. depending upon
the sex, and will go from the grain AMI
hay out to the spring pasture and
unlike the fall colts, will not stop
growing when they are weaned, as the
grass IN the early spring will satisfy
tne colt after 1t has been eating grain
ana hay with its mother all winter.
Now, II the farmer would only feed
the foals little grain all summer with
the mare, or, in other words feed the
mare grain from the time of the foals
birth until the colt is wearned, and then
continue to feed the colt daily simply
increasing the grain little at wearing
time, as a rule the colt would not stop
growing, as the most OF them do when
they are weaned 1t is known fact
that many foals are lust about as large
and much better looking. at the time
they are first weaned from their moth
ers in the fall than they are six months
later. the following spring. This is
merely the fault OF their owners In
allowing them to go unfed at the time
they are weaned. We all know we'll
that when we have a loaded wagon go

same Is true with the colt IL we allow

The need of sign boards in the desert and mountain sections of Ari- zona has often been mentioned in the papers. They would not only be source of great satisfaction to trav- elers but would often be the means of saving life. It is a subject every county government and every good roads organization in the territory should give consideration. More than that it should be given attention by every resident of a remote precinct. If miners and ranchers who live in the hills and across the deserts would take the trouble to erect sim pIe sign boards at functions of their roads and see that they are replaced when torn down, they would in their ouiet way be doing something for humanity worth while, even if they never got any personal thanks for it It would be better to have a well planned system of official sign boards made of metal, or something the passing traveller would not use for kindling, and these too could be depended upon as being more relia- bic if officially placed. However, any kind of sign boards would be better than none at all.

on the powers that be even though adulatory, is given serious attention, that comment emanating from a fel- on's cell or a mind where reason has been dethroned.
 The Republican has no fear that the single instance of the publication of Harry Thaw's opinion will mater ially affect the natural order of things in New York state. It be- lieves that incident if not an imposi- tion on the Associated Press was a lapse from good judgment on the part of some person, rather than mental deterioration of the public mind, of the nature the incident sug- gests, in it's demand for news. The day has not yet arrived when American government desires the commendation of an outlaw, when decency needs public testimonial from the gutter, or virtue seeks reward in the approval of vice.

BEN HUR.

Without doubt the greatest show
of its kind that is being staged is the
realistic production of Gen Lew Wal
lsce's story of "Ben Hur, or Tale
of the Christ that is to be given at
the Grand opera house in Pueblo on
Dec. 2 and 8. No book has been
more widely read by tho American
people and no play has thrilled Amer
lean theatre goers as this has done.
Because Of the massive scenery and
fixtures there are no opera houses in
the smaller towns that can give the
facilities for the production. Even
in city like Pueblo the entire stage
of the big opera house had to be torn
out and rebuilt when Ben Hur first
showed there.
