1t is generally believed that horses
must not be fed clover hay for fear of
the heaves. This is a mistake. If the
horse is given the proper quantity Of
clover and not oyerfed there is no
danger of the heaves. A horse should
never be fed more than he will eat up
clean, either grain or hay. Without
doubt oats is the best general food
for horse, and goes well with tim
othy hay A good change is to once
or twice a week give a feed of corn
and clover with bran mash. When
a horse does not clean up his feed it
Is best to try a change. Feeding and
watering should be done at regular in
tervals, the watering always before the
eating. Above all things, do not give
a horse water Immediately after eat
Ing. 1t should never be given before
Mt least an hour after he has finished
his meal.

we want to buy a herd-header OF pro-
nounced excellence of breeding.
Keeping soiI I'm Good shape.

When there is plenty of moisture in
spring, followed by dry and hot
weather during June and July, the con-
oltlon is just right for spelling the
SOIL especially If untimely blowing has
left the fields in a badly baken condi-
uon. If the result of such conditions
lasted but one season the matter would
not be so serious, but it has frequently
peen observed that land badly puddled
and subsequently hard baked can not be
retrieved in many years 1t is harder
TO reduce such soil than the toughest
hard-pan. In fact, it will require sew
eraI seasons Of careful work to bring
these soils into good condition again.
1t is a bad practice to stir ground
when it is wet, yet it is done every
spring. Crops are puddled in every
year, and 1t is a wonder that we get
any crops at all from these fields.
Such fields are the first t. dry up
when summer droughts strike us. for
capillarity has been so completely de-
stroyed that the crops can not draw
upon the water reserves, and the ele-
ments needed for growth Of the crops
are so securely locked up in the clods
that they are not available.
1t is the natural tendency of all soil
to become firmer. 1t is tamped down
by even the gentlest rains, and beating
rains will render it almost impervious
to water. Good farming must undo
this work by breaking up these crusts
and keeping the soil In good condition.
All practical farmers know that soils
are best by being plowed and cultivated
at Just the right time, but not many
have the patience to stand by, when
the season is getting late, or put off
cultivation and allow weeds to get the
upper hand, Brown says there is more
to be gained by properly working our
soils than in fertilizing them.

COYOTES KILLING GAME.

Deer and Grouse Their Prey IN Western
Colorado.
Coyotes in such large numbers that
they threaten to destroy all Of the deer
and other game in the vicinity of Hot
Sulphur Springs are reported by Frank
G, Stanley, who yesterday appealed to
both the state bureau Of child and ami
NAL protection and the state game and
fish commission for their support in pre-
senting a bill to the coming Legislature
TO provide a bounty on coyotes through
out Colorado. These state departments
have agreed to cooperate to secure such
bill
During a recent heavy snow the coy
otes dragged down and killed thirteen
helpless deer within ten mheS of Hot
Sulphur Springs" said Mr.. Stanley,
"and fawns stand no chance at all with
the ravenous brutes. On every side can
be seen feathers of grouse and sage
hens which tell the story of slaughter,
and although there are pheasants In al
most every other part of the state the
coyotes have completely cleaned them
out in our county. There have been a
great many beaver near Hot Sulphur
Springs and these have been unmolested
by the settlers, but they are being killed
by the score. Unless some reward for
killing coyotes is offered there will soon
be no game left in that section of the
country. Denver Republican.

Wind Collie in Horses.


The treatment for wind collie differs
very materially from that of cramp
collie. Absorbents are of some service,
and charcoal may be given in any
quantity. Relaxants are also beneficial
in this form of collie Choral hydrate
not only possesses this quality, but it
also is a pain reliever. 1t is partIcu-
larry well adapted to the treatment of
wind collie, and should be given in l.
ounce doses in a pint of water Di-
luted alcohol or whisky may be given,
or aromatic spirits of ammonia in l.
ounce doses at short intervals. A
physic should always be given In flatu-
lent collie as early as possible, the best
being LOUNGE doses of BARBADOS aloes.
Injections per rectum, of turpentine, l
to 2 ounces linseed oil, s ounces, may
be given Frequently to stimulate the
peristaltic motion of the bowels and
favor the escape of wind. Blankets
wrung out of hot water do much to af-
ford relief; they should be renewed
every five or ten minutes and covered
with dry, wooden blanket. This form
of collie is much more fatal than cramp
collie, and requires prompt and persist
ent treatment. 1t is entirely unsafe
to predict the result, some apparently
mild attacks going on to speedy death,
while others that appear at the onset
to be very severe yielding rapidly to
treatment. Do not cease your efforts
until you know the animal is past help.
