practicable to begin preparing them
two or three weeks before the work
opens up.
Look After the Harness and Collars.
A large proportion Of the sore
shoulders, backs. and necks, are also
caused during the first few weeks of
spring work. These are partly due
to badly-fitting collars and harness,
but also to the soft condition of the
skin of these parts. after a period
Of idleness or at least lighter work.
In the name Of humanity and in
simple justice to our good friends,
the horses and mules that will help
us produce the crops the coming sea-

that good broad, hard, smooth,

to begin with. say for the first week,
be more than one-fourth or one-third
that required Of the well-trained
animal. When work opens in the
spring, the restless impotence of the
farmer to get his seed in the ground
makes 1t difficult to restrain the ten
dency to over-work the stock. This
Is why We insist that at least two
weeks, and preferably three weeks,
before regular hard spring work is
expected, the teams should be started
on thorough preparation for the
hard work that is to follow II this
were done and neither the muscles or
the digestive system overtaxed until
thoroughly and gradually accustom-
ed to the duties required Of them,
there would be little complaint Of
horses and mules failing to stand up
to the hardest sort Of farm work. In
fact, 1t is almost impossible to over
work an animal at any reasonable
sort Of farm work. If it has been

Much time is also lost in the spring

the implements be put in first-class

additions to the equipment should
