GOOD TREATMENT
OF ANIMAL WOUNDS
Few Injuries Are Materially Bene-
fitted Unless Treated by
Professionals.
BY DR.. M. H. REYNOLDS, v. S

~ In. W. H. NE NOEDS, v. y.
Various preparations of turpentine.
alcohol, vinegar, carbolic acid, irritat-
ing oils, and even mineral acids are
frequently used in the treatment of
animal wounds and then because the
patient RECEIVERS in spite of barbarous
treatment, people enormously con-
clude that the medicine cured.
bleeding can usually be checked
quite easily. If the blood is from a
large number of small vessels,
hemorrhage can be checked and final
ly stopped by the means of ice and
by very hot or very cold water, or
the wound may be packed in clean
cotton or oakum and tightly bandaged.
In case large blood vessel is sew
cred the artery may be secured by
means of small forceps or even a hook
made by bending a pin or piece of
wire.
In some cases hemorrhage can be
easily controlled by a tight bandage
placed above or below the wound. If
the blood flows in a steady stream
the bandage should be on the side
farthest from the heart.
II it flows in jets the bandage
should be tied between the wound
and the heart.
Comparatively few wounds are ma
terially benefited by sewing, band
aging or washing except in profes-
sion hands.
If the wound is made lengthwise of
the muscle there may be considerable
advantage in holding the sides to-
gether by sewing. No special form
of needle or thread is necessary ex-
cept that both should be clean and the
latter should be of reasonable size.
A darning needle and ordinary cotton
thread will do very well in an emer-
gency.
II the wound is made across the
muscle and gapes widely it is usually
unwise to sew, for the stitches will
cut out in few days and make the
scar munh worse than if it had been

NOT A MIRACLE
Just Plain Cause and Effect.

There are some quite remarkable
things happening every day, which
seem almost miraculous.
Some persons would not believe that
a man could suffer from coffee drink
ing so severely as to cause spells of
unconsciousness. And to find relief in
changing from coffee to Postum is
well worth recording.
Il used to be a great coffee drinker,
SO much so that it was killing me by
inches. My heart became so weak
would fall and lie unconscious for an
hour at time.
MY friends, and even the doctor,
told me it was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. / would not be-
lieve 1t, and still drank coffee until
could not leave my room.
Then my doctor, who drinks Pos
tum himself. persuaded me to stop cof-
fee and try Postum. After much hesi-
tation l concluded to try it. That was
eight months ago. Since then l have
had but few of those spells, none for
more than four months.
Il feel better, sleep better and am
better every way. / now drink moth
ing but Postum and touch no coffee,
and as am seveaty years of age all
my friends think the improvement
quite remarkable"

Postum now comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well
boiled. 15c and Csc packages.
Instant Po3tum-is a soluble pow
der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly

Hadn't Seen Pedestrian,

While two men were driving in the
country in an automobile the car
broke down. Finally one decided to
walk on until his companion could
make the necessary repairs and over
take him. When the car was in run
ming order again the driver started
up, and mile farther along came to
an old negro hoeing corn near the
roadside. Did pedestrian pass this
way awhile ago?' asked the man at
the wheel. mo, sab. been right

the gut afterwards The suturing ma
terial itself will be dissolved and alb.
sorbed in few days.
This suturing material is at once
great gift to the surgeon and a dam
ger If he trusts it too much. 1t may
be absorbed in forty-eight hours be-
fore sufficient or sufficiently strong
plastic material has been thrown out
to guard the entrance to the abdomen,
or exit for the bowels as we fear it
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 outsidethe 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 neither 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 hanging out and beyond as
sistance.
One may say that such cases have
been successfully dealt with, but the
delay is nearly always fatal If the
animal can be secured and the bowel
held up by sheet saturated with
disinfectant until the veterinary sur
geon arrives, it may be possible to re-
turn that portion of intestine and re-

such that the edges can be held to-
gether by means of bandages. If this
can be done there may be consider
able advantage in doing so, but these
wounds are rare. Bandages should
