RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PRE-
VENTloN OF HORSE EPIDEMIC

At a conference in the Governors
office Of the leading veterinarians
that have been investigating the di.
sease affecting horses in the western
part of Kansas, it was he cOncensus
of opinion that but few horses that
have been kept out of pasture and on
dry feed have been affected; that the
outbreak was primarily brought On by
climatic conditions; and that it was
not, in the true sense of the term,
considered to be contagious. As a
result Of this conference, a commit
tee consisting of Drs. o. o. Wolf,
Ottawa, B. A. Robinson, Indepen-
dence, A. T. Kinsley, Kansas City,
Mo-, F. S. Schoenleber, Manhattan,
B. R. Rogers, Manhattan, ]. S. Buck
ley, Washington, D. c., X. W. Stou-
der, Topeka, and ]. H. Mercer, Live
Stock Commissioner, was appointed
by the Governor to formulate recon-
mendations that will benefit those in.
terested.
The recommendations, which do no
differ much from the previous Off.
cial recommendations for prevention
OF this disease, are as follows:
l. That all horses and mules be ia
ken off pasture until freezing wealth
er.
2. Feed these animals on green
corn fodder, cane of kafir, bran, oil
meal, or in fact, any food that has a
laxative action.
3. Feed cautiously hay cut from
low or overflowed land, or that land
receiving drainage from pasture.
4. See that the horses have a pur,
wholesome water supply, free from
surface drainage, and that they are
excluded from all still, stagnant OF
surface water.
.. Empty, clean and thoroughly
disinfect all water troughs and tank
by scrubbing out with a solution q
tour ounces Of carbolic acid in on,
gallon Of water, once a week.
6. Fast the animal from twelve t
twentyfour hours and administer oil
Ian empty stomach one quart of raw
Alnseed oil, to which has been adde,
two ounces of turpentine. Repea
this in twelve to twentyfour hours
Great care should be taken in admir-
STEERING the oil for fear Of strangu
lation. Drench slowly. In case tn
animal strangles, lower the head.
