RAISING THE COLT BY HAND
Cows Milk May Be Used II the A.
tendant Conducts Work Patiently
and lnteillgently.

(By A. g. ALEXANDER. Wisconsin Col
lege of Agricultural
In case the mare dies or has no
milk the foal may be raised on cows
milk, If the attendant conducts the
work patiently and intelligently.
Choose the milk of a COW that has
recently calved, preferably one which
gives milk low in butterfat, for mares
milk while rich in sugar, is poor in
fat. Sweeten the milk with molasses
or sugar and dilute with warm water.
Give little of this prepared milk
at short intervals from a scaled nurs-
Ing bottle and large rubber nipple.
Be careful to keep the bottle and
nipple scrupulously clean. Add an
ounce of lime water to each pint of
the prepared milk and allow half a
cupful once an hour at first.
AS the foal grows, gradually in.
crease the amount Of milk fed and
lengthen the intervals between meals.

When Father HELPED,

The fond father held the manu-
script while his son practised the ora
ton.
"Shall we permit the ruthless hand
of the hydra-headed tyrant," cried the
youth, "to-to-to-well, what is it,"
The father was wrestling with the
manuscript.
"Oh, yes" he muttered, here 1t is:
to dessicate.' Go on"
"It's desecrate," cried the boy, in
dignantly. "'Shall we permit the
ruthless hand of the hydra-headed
tyrant to desecrate the-the-the-

The table was covered with blue cham

the centerpiece and plate doilies were
of white linen, each having a red cross
embroidered in the corner, the oppo.
site corner had the guests monogram.
The centerpiece was a tall glass used
