EGGS BENEFIT YOUNG COLTS
Claimed That Digestion 10 Improved,
Oeranoements Are Prevented and
Bone Built Up.

There Is an European custom of i'm
parting special growth and vigor to
the young stallion colts at the impe
rial studs which they intend to keep
for breeding purposes by giving them.
IN addition to oatmeal cruel with
milk and sugar, even while they are
nursing, freshly laid clean eggs.
1t seems they start by breaking the
contents of an egg on the colts
tongue and forcing him to swallow It..
beginning with four eggs day. later
six and seven, up to dozen.
When the colt is three or four
weeks old they simply tap the she'll
until 1t is cracked into minute squares
and make him take it shell and all.
1t Is said the thoroughly cracked
shell Of freshly laid eggs causes the
lime in the shell to dissolve and re-
suits In improved digestion, prevents
digestive arrangements and constipa-
ton. and builds up bone.
In discussing the matter . we'll
known breeder recently said:
1T stands to reason that II this GUS

even practiced by some Of the great
est shorthorn cattle exhibitors who
aim at raising $4,000 to 10000 show
bulls BY giving them a start over 9TH

eminently proper with a trotting colt
when so much depends on crowding
MIN ahead as much as possible Of
other competitors for extreme early

Massanutten Academy was defeated
in foot ball last Saturday at Stanton
by S. M. A. by the score of 46 to o.
the most decisive defeat M. A. ever
suffered. The strength of the teams
would perhaps be better indicated by
a score of IS to 0, which, from fair
judgment, shows the comparative mer-
its of the two teams. But Massaput-
ten suffered serious reverses from the
start-was outweighed by - lbs, and
had three of her best men put out of
