Prevention of Disease
Among Our Farm Animals.

hHsHu& SuT
So much literature is constantly
being distributed treating of the
cure of diseases among our farm
animals that the object of this ar
ticle is to call attention to several
conditions which will prevent dis
eases among the farm animals. 1t
has been found by careful obser-
vation that the majority of diseases
among farm animals are from i'm
proper care, and especially from
improper feeding and watering. 1t
is well established fact that a
horse may be given water after eat
ing hay. but not Immediately after
feed of oats. Our investigators
have found that by watering horse
Immediately after eating its grain,
the gastric juice is greatly diluted.
Also, IL horse has been eating
hay and grain and then drinks its
usual amount of water. there is
not room in the stomach for the
hay, grain and water; therefore a
large amount of grain is washed
out of the stomach into the intes-
tines. and thus escapes the action
OF the gastric Juice of the stomach.
n the work of the stomach has been
cut short by full feed of water.
then the intestines are overworked.
resulting in large amount OF
feed passing on undigested and the
animal gets no good from It.
At this time of the year extreme
care should be exercised in regard
to giving too much grain to the
work horse not accustomed to con-
centrated food all winter. Also. In
