gance. The designs are simple and

trying to the eyes. Now that Lent is
here and our time is not too fully
occupied 1t is a real pleasure to sit
down to little old-fashioned sewing.
One OF these petticoats is of white
nainsook with ruffle of batiste ma
chine stitched TO the bottom. The ruff
fle is scalloped and buttonhole-stitched
along the lower edge. 1t may be pur-
chased with the edge ready finished.
The buttonhole stitching is extended

terial itself will be dissolved and alb
sorbed in few days.
This suturing material is at once a
great gift to the surgeon and dan

be absorbed in forty-eight hours be-

or exit for the bowels as We fear 1t
might prove.
A further precaution may therefore
be taken by putting a few stitches Of
insoluble silk through the empty purse
rather close up to the belly. This
should be well saturated with an anti
septic as We do not want a formation
OF pus, although we may have to leave
it for three days or more. If the sub
sequent swelling outside the belly does
not satisfy us that it Is safe to remove
these outside stitches.
Unless any foreign substance has
gone in while operating. there Is ap
parently little danger of peritonitis or
other i'll results. There are other
methods of operation the details of
which more concern the practicing
veterinary surgeon than the horse
breeder. who should> ueither attempt
the performance himself nor let an
other whom he cannot fully trust.
1t is to put our readers on their
guard against the reckless assumption
that every colt is normal. and that no
such precautions need be taken that
we offer these suggestions. there being
no use in idle regrets when an hour
after castration a colt is found with
his bowels henging out and beyond as
sistance.
One may say that such cases have
been successfully dealt with, but the
delay is nearly always fatal. II the
animal can be secured and the bowel
held up by a sheet saturated with a
disinfectant until the veterinary sur
geon arrives. 1t may be possible to re-
turn that portion Of intestine and re-
tain 1t while anticipating subsequent
inf1ammatory troubles by proper
treatment.

Feeding sturfs contain necessary ele-

instance. is contained in all feeds. but
not enough to produce milk. SO cows
should be given plenty OF fresh, pure
water. Carbohydrates are OF two
kinds-those without nitrogen. such as
starch. sugar. etc. and fiber or cellu-
lose. which forms the greater part OF
plant cells. which are converted by
cows into fat. Since carbohydrates
form the largest part OF feeds they are
made the basis OF calculating rations.
Protein is the flesh producing sub
stance, containing nitrogen derived
from plants. an important part OF milk.
and nothing can replace it. Fat fed TO
dairy cows In feeds is stored in the
body and changed into milk fat The
ash is what is left OF feeding s;Hffs
after being burned and goes to form
bone and digestive juices.

which the proportion OF protein. car
bohydrates and tat is such as to give
the best results In the quantity and
quality OF milk produced. which varies
with different cows In different eli.

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.

Indigestion and the attendant dis.
comforts Of mind and body are Ger.
tain to follow continued use of i'm.
proper food.
Those who are still young and ro.
bust are likely to overlook the fact
that, as dropping water will wear a
stone away at last, SO will the use of
heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss Of appetite and Indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle of cause and effect in
their daily food. A N. Y. young won.
an writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago l had a lot of trou-
Bile from indigestion, caused by too
rich food. I got so I was unable to
digest scarcely anything, and medi.
cines seemed useless.
"A friend advised me to try Grape
Nuts food, praising it highly and as
a last resort, l tried 1t. I am thankful
to say that Grape-Nuts not only re-
iieved me Of my trouble, but built me
up and strengthened my digestive or.
gans so that l can now eat anything I
desire. But stick to Grape-Nuts."
