Proper Age to Wean Colts.

The age to wean a colt depends
largely on conditions. If the mare
is not working or is not in foal
again no hurry need be felt in wean.
ing the colt, but ordinarily from
six to seven months of age is not
far from the most satisfactory time.
The feeding of the colt should
start when it is three or four weeks
old and while it is sucking the
mother, corn, oats, wheat bran and
any good, clean sweet hay may be
given. If this is done, there will be
no check in the growth of the colt
when weaned, but after it is de-
prived of its mothers milk more
care must be taken in the selection
of its feeds.
At least one-half the hay should
be of some good legume, free from
dust and sw, at. The other half may
be corn fodder or any good grass
hay. For grain, corn, oats, Wneat
bran, and after it is nine months OF
a year old, cottonseed meal may be
used. The corn should never form
more than one-third the grain ration
and the cottonseed meal not more
than one-sixth.
Let the colt run in pasture or lot
where it will get exercise, and if
good growth is expected, feed during
the first winter, at least, all of these
feeds it will eat up clean, three
times a day. Salt should be kept be-
fore the colt all the time. Ordinary
salt kept in a box in the stable is
probably best. If a tablespoonful of
hardwood ashes be given once a day
it is thought by some to do good in
8 applying extra material for bone,
making.
BE certain to avoid allowing the
colt to become infested with lice.
Good, regular grooming, with a
brush only, is also of much benefit.

Probabilities Are that All

The proba Utilities are that more people than ever before will welcome the New Year in the big dining room of the Stratfield this season. Already many prominent Bridgeporters have made table reservations for next Sat- urday night and the prospects are that about 300 people will say Good Bye" to 1910 and make many reso- lutions for 1911 while dining and listening to music. Manager Harry c. Griswold is planning for extensive decorations to the dining parlors, will have a much augmented orchestra, and will probably secure the services of talented singers.
 There will be many favors given out, their nature being withheld. New Years night at the Stratfield has of the year at this hostelry.

AND A STREAK,--0UR
 NEW MACHINE
Fire Departments Motorcycle to Garry Everything But a
 Lise-Net

The motor cycle which the Fire Commission is going to secure for the newly appointed assistant chief Of the fire department is going to be a veloci- pede extraordinary. and before Com missioner Frank L. Cogin gets through working out his idea of a machine it will carry about everything except a life net.
 It will be a seven or eight horse power machine capable of cleaving holes in s;liow banks. equipped with specially heavy tires prepared with anti-skidding devices. It will carry & small hand chemical extinguisher, a searchliglnt. and a siren horn that will be operated by connection wieh the motors so that all that will be noticed of the assistant chief on his way to a fire will be a shriek and a streak.
 Commissioned Cogill says that the cycle is being used in several fire de- partments with success. particularly in Buffalo. where there is great deal of snow He says that the cost of maintenance will be a great deal less than horse or 8 wagon and that it will takeyup very little room, the lat- ter tlen1ent being an important one, as there is not place in East Bridgeport to house a large vehicle.
 The commissioner. who is g. com nftttee of one to purchase the cycle, has specifications and figures from two competing builders of standard cycles to furnish the machines. and he will probably put off the purchase of the wheel until after he sees what the ap- preaching motor cycle show at Madi- offer in the way of powerful motor cycles. Mir. Cogiu would prefer that the bidders give a competitive test Of what their cycles are able to do.
