Care of Brood Mares.

The brood mare that is about
to bring a foal should be looked
to as the time draws near. Any
quiet paddock or pasture will be
the best next place to turn her
in provided there is no shielded
barn room to give her.
If the mare is put in pas
ture, care should be especially
taken to allow no mules to go at
large in it. These creatures seem
to have SO much curiosity about
young horse foal that they will
run it to death if it gets separat-
ed from it's mother. After few
days, however. the foal is in no
danger from mules.
