Causes, Symptoms and che Common
Method of Treatment.

causes, Symptoms and the Common
Method of Treatment.
1t is more or less common on farms
having considerable number Of
horses to each year have one or more
cases among them of fiatulent collie.
More especially is this true where
horses are being fitted for the market,
necessitating heavy grain feeding.
In a work issued by the United
States department of agriculture. en-
titled Diseases Of the Horse" this
subject is discussed in detail, In which
are given the causes, symptoms and
the common methods Of treatment. 1t
is pointed out that among the most
frequent causes of this form Of collie
are to be mentioned sudden changes
of food, too long fasting, food given
while the animal is exhausted, new
hay or grain, large quantities of green
food, food that has lain in the manger
for some time and become sour, indi-
gestible food, irregular teeth. crib
biting, and, in fact, anything that pro-
duces indigestion may cause flatulent
collie.
The symptoms of wind collie are not
so suddenly developed, not so severe
as those of cramp collie. At first the
horse is noticed to be dull, paws
slightly and may or may not lie down.
The pains from the start are continu-
Gus. The belly enlarges, and by strik-
ing 1t in front of the launches drum
like sound results. If not soon re-
lieved the above symptoms are aggra-
waited, and in addition there are no.
ticed difficult breathing, bloodshot
eyes and red mucuous membranes,
loud, tumultuous heart beat, profuse
perSpiration. trembling of the front
legs. signing respiration, staggering
from side to side and finally plunging
forward dead. The diagnostic symp-
toms Of flatulent collie are the disten-
sion of the bowels with gas, detected
by the bloated appearance and reso-
nance on percussion.
The treatment for wind collie differs
very materially from that of cramp
collie. Absorbents are of some serv-
ice, and charcoal may be given in any
quantity. Relaxants are also benefi-
cial in this form of collie. Chloral hy-
drate not only possesses this quality,
but 1t is also a pain reliever. 1t is
then particularly well adapted to the
treatment of wind collie and should be
given in one ounce doses in pint Of
water. Diluted alcohol or whisky may
be given or aromatic spirits Of am
monia in one ounce doses at short in
tervals. A physic should always be
given in fiatulent collie as early as
possible. the best being one ounce
doses of Barbados aloes. Injections,
per rectum, Of turpentine, one to two
ounces; linseed oil. eight ounces, may
be given frequently to stimulate the
pcristaltic motion of the bowels and
favor the escape of wind. Blankets
wrung out Of hot water do much to
afford relief. They should be renewed
with dry woolen blanket. This form
of collie is much more fatal than
cramp collie and requires prompt and
persistent treatment. 1t is entirely
unsafe to predict the result, some ap-
parently mild attacks going on to
speedy death. while others that ap-
pear at the onset to be very severe
yielding rapidly to treatment. Do not
cease your efforts until you know the
animal is past help.

More Money In Live Stock Than Grain

More Money In Live Stock Than Grain.
The value of farm animals is in
creasing rapidly, suggesting that
farmers of the west are going more
and more into general farming, not
depending so much on raising grain
for market. The statement is made
by the American Cultivator. The
value Of farm animals is placed at
about $5.000O00.000, or one-fifth Of
the entire value of farm property.
The value Of receipts at leading mar
ket centers for about 50,000.000 head
of cattle, horses. hogs and mules will
total well over a billion dollars, this
sum of the leading markets only, and
probably nearly as much more live
stock is sold at the smaller markets,
as it is figured that about two-f1fths
of the farm live stock goes to market
during one year. OF the annual in
come from live stock, cattle make up
about fivc-cighths, hogs one-fourth
and the balance sheep, horses and
mules. The great iron and steel in

dairy products. The tendency of all
lines of animal products is toward in
crense, while the country is becoming
less and less an exporter of grain.
The farmers are wisely securing n
double profit by turning their grain
into the home market and selling II
as Il finished product in the form of
meat, butter and cheese. The United
States has more dairy cows (22,244,-

world. more horses, 23,000.532; more

Gore, the great English astronomer,
has been calling attention to several
widespread errors. He says the state
ment that with the Yerkes telescope
one can see the moon as If II were
only sixty miles away is utterly
wrong, for If the moon were really
only at that distance we should see
only a very small part Of 1t instead of
the entire half. which we do see. We
should. he says, see only one-ninetieth
of what we see now.
Professor Gore says 1t is also an er.
ror to say that the stars can be seen in
broad daylight from the bottom Of a
well. He says they cannot be seen un.
less telescope be used.

Mild Weather Spoiled Opening Day
on Susquehanna Flats.

Ducking season on the Susquehanna
flats opened on Monday, and gunners
were out in force. 1t was estimated by
the wiseacres that about 6ooo redheads,
mallards, blackheads and canvas-backs
had met their doom.
Gunners report ducks quite plentiful,
considering the warm weather that has
prevailed. Monday, however, proved to
be poor opening day, the weather prov
ing too ideal to be counted as good day
for ducking. The water was calm and
therefore the ducks were not kept on the
wing. and consequently they decoyed
poorly.
State Game Warden Harmonson with
several of his deputies were on the flats
Monday and in all they made fl arrests.
mostly for parties not having their duck
ing licenses with them.

parties from whom the crusher was pur-
chased the screen was not shipped with

be crushed until it is received.
The second concrete bridge was COM
pleted this week, and the work of grading
the road is proceeding rapidly. About
half mile of the roadbed is now
ready for stone. which will be placed upon
