Hold Celebration Tonight.

SICK nCreeS are causing the IdflucfU

by overlooking. MANY of the farmers
have been feeding their horses little
or no grain during the winter" said
Mr.. Byerley this morning. when
they begin working them they feed
them too much grain. II they would
only feed the grain in small quantities
at first there would be less of this
trouble
According to the veterinarians there
is more or less of this trouble expert
enced every year but this year there
is more OF. it than usual. The sick
ness is seldom fatal to the horses, but
it is bad enough SO that 1t Is impos-
sihle for them to be worked for a few
days.
