FROM THE HUMANE ADVOCATE

Now that the heat of summer is
Upon US and likely to remain with us
for three months, it is well to give a
little thought to the subject, with the
view of directing our activities, SO far
as possible, toward the prevention of
suffering among horses.
The second day of a hot spell ia
tigues horses very much. The third
day always produces some heat pros
trations or sunstrokes, and each sue
cessive day produces more, in a great
ly increased ratio. The fatigue of the
second day increases until the horse
goes down in complete prostration,
soon becoming insensible and dying,
in an hour or two, unless he receives
very prompt relief.
The first symptom of heat prostra
ton is painting. This is usually ac
companied by profuse sweating, dila
ton of the nostrils, hanging of the
head, dropping ears, slowing up, loss
of animation bloodshot eyes. If the
horse is pushed along, he ceases tC

are many cases of collie from indigcs
ton in very hot weather and the prob
abilities are that the stomach is out
of order in q case of prostration. To
keep this organ in good order the best
of hay and oats should be used and
double handful or dry bran should BE
mixed with each feed of oats 1t is
a good plan to feed little less in hot
weather than the horse has been &C
customed to.
Don't overwork. 1t is the overwork-
ed horse that usually gets sunstruck
He is not able to do as much in hot
as in cold or mild weather: conse-
quently horses should not be loaded rs
heavily nor driven as fast, nor as far
as in cool weather
Don't neglect to water often Horses
should be watered on a hot day every
hour or so. When a horse begins to
Pant and show signs of WEAKNESS. he
should be allowed TO stop in the shade
| and rest for half an hour. The owners
| of horses should give this order to
their drivers, as it will be the means
| of saving their animals and, conse.
lquently, their money.
1t Is really duty to interfere in all
cases of overwork, overdriving, exces-
sive fatigue and heat prostration: and
| 10 advise the owner or driver of hor.
ses to call in their veterinarian in such
cases. Delays are dangerous. Almost
all cases of sunstroke can be saved il
relief Is given promptly. but, if de.
layed even half an hour death is likely
