A LITTLE HORSE SENSE
w. M. Burson, Professor Veterinary
Science, Georgia State College Of
Agriculture.

Be patient with the colt, teach him,
what is expected of him. His train
ing should begin early. With careful
handling, little petting now and
then and a lump of sugar, an apple
or something else he likes, he will
soon be your friend. But few colts
properly trained ever develop into
kickers or runaways.
If the teams are working in the
fields where water is not handy, pro
vide a clean barrel and take out a
supply of water. Stop and rest and
water the horses in the middle of the
forenoon or afternoon. 1t will pay.
Do not feed grain or give much
water to horses or mules when they
are overheated or very tired. Let
them cool and rest first; then diges-
ton will be better and the dangers
of collie and founder lessened
The money invested in good cur
rycomb and brush will pay bigger
dividend than Standard Oil stock if
they are properly used.
The horse that is thoroughly groom
ed looks better, feels better, will sell
better. and is better.
Some veterinarians prescribe a
thorough grooming as part of their
treatment of colds, shipping fever dis
temper and pneumonia 1t is rational
treatment.

forty-acre test farms, to demonstrate
to the farmers the value Of advanc-

acted in an advisory way. The first
years results have been obtained and
though the year was poor one from
the standpoint of weather conditions,
yet the eleven farms on which data
has been collected all showed prof
it. The actual figures from the 3S7

If proper attention is paid to the
fit of the collar and the necks and
shoulders are bathed with cold water
each evening, but few collar sores

Some folks wonder why the horses

to go gee instead of haw. Sometimes
a collar sore is the cause
It takes lot of patience to get

usual happened. The driver probably
cussed some and felt mean afterwards.
Good harness need not be fancy
or expensive. Strength without eX-
cessive weight is what you want.
Be careful when you start to feed
a new kind of feed. Make the change
gradually. Allow the digestive or
cans to become accustomed to the
new kind of material they have to
work with. By this means you miss
a lot of collie and sometimes save a
horse.
Home grown grain and hay are the
best. You know what's in it.
You don't know the quality of the
materials used in making the ground
and mixed feeds. Some pretty low
grade stuff used in them sometimes.
There's no discount on the feed
grown on your own farm. Costs less,
too.

Mr.. Jackson, summarizing the re-
suit, says: Dividing the profit by
337, the number of. acres in cultiva-
ton, gives an average profit of 1882
per acre on land the average value of

net profit. By adding the rent to the
profit, the total income from the land
after the farmers have been paid for
all their work and all their expenses,
is $4,300.93, which is an average in
come of $12.75 per acre, and is more
than forty-six per cent. on the value

Had this 337 acres been located in

would have been materially greater.
