MAIN BUILDING OK sLINGs
Make OId-Tinae Device for Shoeing
 Valuable.
(NeW York S11n.N

The o1d-time OK sling is reappearing in Maine It is safe to say that within the next five years there will not be a rural town in which at least one will not be found.
 This prediction is based on present tendencies am ong farmers once more to use the OK as a beast of burden, to- gethec with the increase in mum bers of the slings during the past half-dozen years.
 An OK sling is very important, though it is a very clumsy looking piece of apparatus, in communities where oxen are used. Without one shoeifg an OK becomes a difficult if not Impossible task.
 The OK sling is built of heavy tim Ibers, the sills usually being at least four by six, while the uprights are the same The front is closed With two-. inch blanks. These front blanks are movable and have a place cut in them which. closes aroud the animals neck. It is for all the world like old fashioned stock.
 When the steer has been driven into the sling and his head fastened in the front boards two stout straps are drop ped down from one of the upper side .tinbers of the frame, passed under the animals and brought up and fastened to the beam the other side.
 Next one fore foot of the beast is drawn up and placed on the sill, where it is strapped securely. The opposite hind foot treated in the same manner. When the blacksmith has shod those two hoofs they are released and the remaining hoofs treated.
 A dozen years ago there were not in all probability more than 25 of these slings in the state of Maine. Farmers had given up the practice of keeping oxen. Horses were quicker and they had turned to them, but about seven years ago a reaction set irl-
 The farmers realized that while horses would do more in a, day than the OK, theyiswere much more expen sive to maintain. They began to real ize that a. yoke or two of good cattle on the place was an asset Since that time there has been in every portion of Maine a steady increase in the number of oxen used.

They AIlay Thirst Quickly. but the Eff.

The reason why we like etfervescent

drinking liquids charged with carbonic
acid gas produces immediately an in

thirst
But the relief they bring is only
temporary and is followed by reac.

creased The salvary glands are no
more susceptible to perpetual stimula
ton than any other, and after each
period of excitement one of depression
Supervenes, Young soldiers ON route
marches quickly come to understand
this and to discover that the more
water they drink the more thirsty they
get and that it is best, therefore, to
limit the quantity of liquid swallowed
Moreover. the saliva contains matters
of great Importance for the digestion
of food, particularly Of starchy foods,
and If it all be washed down the throat
into the bowels as soon as it Is secret
ed great part of its usefulness is lost
1t would therefore seem that a less

noting the flow OF saliva might be
adopted with profit The consumption
of fruit containing subacid juices is
about the most excellent way.-St
