Teeth should BE Examined,

A great many of the troubles Of the
horse come when the owner thinks he
is treating him the best in winter
when there Is little work and the
horse is turned out to pasture, or tc
an alfalfa stack. There are mum
ber Of points to keep In mind when
disposing of the horse for the winter
says Colorado bulletin.
First OF these is the condition of his
teeth. Remember, II he has been liv,
ing largely on chop feed, or other
grain that requires little mastication
that his teeth may not be In condition
to handle the roughage of the pasture
or the poor quality of hay which is
usually fed to horses that are not
working. He may be parrot-mouthed
and not able to bite off the grass.
The teeth should by all means be
examined by veterinarian, II the
owner is incapable. Rough feed must

less at time. Deficiency of protein

A New Dip for Cattle.

The Oklahoma State Board of Agri.
culture has adopted new dipping So
luton for cattle. The crude oil meth
cd has been abandoned on account Of
Its often injurious effect on steers.
All cattle shipped In from Texas must
be dipped In order to keep out Texas
fever by killing the ticks, which carry
the disease. The new dip Is an arsen-
ical solution, much cheaper than the
crude oil, just as effective and less In
furious. 1t is made by boiling 10
pounds of commercial arsenic, "a
pounds Of sal soda and / gallon of
pine tar in 40 gallons Of water. 1t Is
then increased to 80 gallons by adding
water, and this solution Is enough for
45O gallons of water when mixed with
1t. The cost Is about cent gallon,
or about 25 cents per steer In dipping
The only danger from the use Of this
dip Is that steer might accidentally
swallow some of the solution, quart
of which would cause death.

the subject. Mr.. Hoag finished the
inside of the house first. This being
done, he lathed the whole outside with
wire screen stuff, such as is used for
fencing chicken pens. This was firmly
fastened. The studding was close, and
when the wire was on it gave a rigid
surface on sides, ends and the slopes
of the roof.
over this layer of wire he spread a
first coat of cement. 1t was well
pressed on. so that it oozed through
the meshes of the wire for a clinch-
ing hold. When this first coating was
thoroughly set another and heavier
one was spread over the surface.
Shingle effects were fashioned on the
gables, and on the roof the cement
was shaped and lined, to give an ap-
pearanee of stating. Then over the
whole outside was laid a finishing
veneer of cement paint.

The question of the proper amount
OF seed to sow is never settled. Two
and one-half bushels of average oats,
sown broadcast, are not too many on
average land, average seasons; and
about one-half bushel less when
drilled In, Is looked upon as about
right by most oat growers.
Many good farmers differ, however,
on this. many thinking a peck will
bring as good or better results. There
are varieties of oats with very large
berry which would have to be in
creased to get the same number Of
plants to the acre that the very small
berry oats would give Still, as a
rule. large vigorous seed will pro-
duce a large vigorous plant and this
would need more room than smaller
one. The season and soil make con-
siderable difference, too, with the
amount of seed. Pasturing grain
with sheep or other light stock, tends
to thicken 1t, also to shorten the straw
and to prevent lodging, though 1t fire.
quently adds to the length of time for
ripening. When there is danger OF
oats lodging. thick seeding tends to
prevent 1t.
