the needs of the horse. Prairie, timothy,
cane, kafir, corn and small grain hays
have approximately the same feeding
value, according to Doctor McCampbell.
Alfalfa, clover, sweet clover and cow
pea hays have similar feeding values, al
though alfalfa is slightly the richest Of
the group. This second group should be
considered more as concentrates than
as roughage, he believes, because of
high protein content and the ease with
which they are digested.
DR.. McCampbell appreciates oats as
a much more satisfactory feed than
corn or barley. He recommends that
only about five pounds of alfalfa hay
be fed daily for every thousand pounds
of live weight.
"In feeding alfalfa remember that it
is more of concentrate than a rough
age, one pound containing IS per cent
more digestible protein than does one
pound Of shelled corn; and that the
feeding Of excessive amounts of pro-
tein is one Of the principal causes of
all kinds Of digestive and urinary
troubles. For the best results, alfalfa
hay that is to be fed to horses should
be pretty mature when cut. This hay
should never be fed without some other
roughage, such as cane, or straw, or
prairie hay"

TREATING THE FEET.

- GOD and bad feet are largely in
~ herited in horses, yet very often
good feet are ruined by bad treat
ment, writes J. L. Buchanan in the
National Stockman. If colts are foaled
with crooked feet and especially if the
hind feet turn over sideways you can
soon remedy this trouble by keeping
inside of bottom of foot rasped down
and toe cut back little, leaving the
outside alone. A few trimmings will
make the foot straight. Thus every pro
Queer of horses should be the owner of
good horseshoer's rasp and use it
when needed.
While horses are going without shoes
good rasp should be kept close at
hand so all Irregularities of feet may
be kept rasped off. The feet of horses
allowed to stand too long on dry,
hard floor or on a pile Of heated ma
nure are apt to get too dry and hard,
in which case 1 should recommend a
little fish oil rubbed on the upper edge
of the hoof just at the edge Of the hair,
not over the shell Of tho hoof, because
it would shut the air and moisture out
If put on at junction Of hoof and hair
the hoof will take up the oil, and it
will help to grow and toughen the hoof.
l have known horses to stand on hot
manure until it burnt all of the lower
part of the hoof out.
It is splendid idea to keep horses
on the ground all you can. Continuous
shoeing is ruinous to any horse s feet
unless frequently changed. I know of
horses allowed to carry their shoes for
three months, and some until they are
worn off. No wonder SO many horses
feet are ruined. We frequently see
colts shut in stables for all winter and
no attention paid to their feet, and by
spring their hoofs are two or three and
even four inches too long and pasterns
sprung back and toes turned up until
you would declare that both feet and
pasterns were ruined. Yet when prop
erly trimmed and turned out to pas
ture they soon come all right.
Blacksmiths often damage a horse 8
foot by holding redhot shoes too long
at one place and by making shoes too

Caring For Your Horse

by people who have written to breeders,
and one particularly striking instance
will serve to illustrate my point. A
man who was improving and stocking a
high class stock farm once asked the
writer what kind of stock Mr..
had in his herd. I replied that his herd
sires were among the best of the breed,
and that the females in the herd had
won frequently at our fairs. He said
that he had intended to purchase his
foundation stock from this man, and
had written him for prices and pedi,
grees, but that the reply was written
very badly on sheet of common rough
newspaper tablet paper, and he had de-
cided that a man who did not display
more judgment in his correspondence
was not likely to display any great
amount of judgment in breeding. As
a result the breeder lost good SALE
a sale which had been developed by
him through his advertising, and a sale
to which he was entitled on the merits
of his stock, for he really had an ex-
cellent herd.

Founded as the breeding business is,

In handling business by mail, not
enough Importance is attached to the
printed matter used by many breeders.
In the first place when an inquiry
reaches the breeder be replies by let
Ter. If the inquiry comes from a
stranger the nature of the breeder S
reply goes far to establish first i'm

far to fix an idea of the personality Of

FEEDING INTEILLGENTLY.
RHE AVERAGE farmer can lear

EHE AVERAGE farmer can learn a
valuable lesson in horse feeding
from the race-horse man, believes
o. W. MeCampbell, assistant professor
Of animal husbandry at the Kansas
State Agricultural College. The success
full trainer knows that too much rough
age is extremely hard on the wind and
endurance Of horse. If it pays the
owner of a race horse to feed for the
greatest possible wind and endurance,
1t will also be worth the while of the
farmer to use care in feeding his work
horses.
"The farmer who knows how to get
the most efficient service from his
horses" explained Doctor McCamp-
bell, twill increase the amount of
grain used in the ration, as the work is
increased; but he will not increase the
hay part of the feed, because he knows
that horse cannot do its best work
when overloaded with rough feed. An
overloaded digestive apparatus inter
feres materially with respiration. Horses
doing very hard work should not have
more than ten or twelve pounds of hay
for each thousand pounds of live weight.
About one-third of the hay should be
fed in the morning, only little should
be given at noon, and the rest should
be fed at night"
1t pays to know the comparative
feeding value of different feeds, so that
one can choose a ration that is eco,
nomical and at the same time meets

short and narrow, producing contracted
hoofs, eorns, side bones, etc. Black
smiths are often in hurry and some
times fit the foot to the shoe instead
Of the shoe to the foot, which is the
proper way. Another fault of too many
smiths is they do not cut or trim
enough from the bottom of the foot and,
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1914-10-08

on the other hand, cut back too muck
of the shell In order to make the focs
fit the shoe, exposing too much OF tho
tissues of the foot, thus allowing water
to soak in and oil to evaporate. The
enamel or coating of the hoof should
not be broken or removed more than
possible.

RUDE DANCING

Ted Robinson in the Cleveland Plain Dealer has formulated a set of rules for dancers which 1t may be well to observe. He says:
 Rule l. Always place your feet where your partners feet are not
 Rule 2. If you get Q partner with whom you cannot dance. do not apolo. gize Start an argument.
 Rule 9. 1T you bump into another couple growl about those cyclone dancers, who seem to think they own the ball.
 Rule 4. If when you fall your part. nor sits on your ear, do not become embarrassed but make a facetious TO. mark. such as, Do you Ike to ride on the Erie2" or All oft-this is as for as I can go."
 Rule 5 If you should miss the floor with your feet and use your partners instep, stop dancing and, look at her seriously and bsk her where she learned to dance. This will not only avert suspicion from yourself. but lead her to believe that you were the guy who taught Mrs, Castle how to walk.
 Rule 6. Never watch your feet, for that is useless. Watch the floor which is likely to fly up and hit you any time
