FORAGE POISONING KILLS MANY
HORSES

Minnesota's farmers, every fall and
winter, lose valuable horses from for
age poisoning; usually from eating
moldy fodder or grain, saws DR.. r.
Preston Hoskins, Of the Minnesota E;x~
pertinent station.
The illness, continues DR.. Hoskins, "a
almost always fatal, but il is not orr
tagious, and when several horses on a
farm are stricken at the same tim11
the cause is usually tho" eating of mol
dy ensilage, moldy corn-fodder, oats Or
hay. For some reason cattle do not
seem to suffer by eating the same mol
dy feeds.
The Iowa Experiment station re-
ports that from 80 to 80 per cent of
the cases, of which information is re-
ceived, come from moldy ensilage. Tie
black, blue and green molds commonly
found on feeds are known to cause the
traced to hay from low marshy lands:
An affected animal will show loss Of
appetite, depression, weakness and un-
j steadiness Of gait; and paralysis of:
the hind quarters usually follows FL:
ability to swallow is also characters
tic, though this might be overlooked;
unless the animal is being watered
! from a pail. SOLDERING is e~a7hnee
:. of the inability to swallow. An ami
!; NAL will lie down, and in day or
; two will be unable to rise, while the
breathing will be slow and jerky. At
intervals he may attempt to rise and,
in his struggle will bruise and abrade
the skin, unless he is kept well bed
! ded. Medicinal treatment is rarely
successful. The trouble may be pre-.
vented by carefully examining feed
i for the presence Of mold. Under no
circumstances should moldy feed be
given to horses or kept where they can
; get at it themselves.

When we realize that one person out
of every four in America who dies: be-
tween the ages Of Is and so dies from
tuberculosis, and that it is mainly
through voluntary subscriptions that
the fight against the disease is initiatt-
ed, we realize what the sale Of Red;
Cross Christmas Seals means to Minne--
sofa.
The economic loss to- this state an
nually from tuberculosis is ten million
dollars, which means that every one
of us loses five dollars personally
Practically all Of the $500. annual
deaths from tuberculosis are prevent A.
BILE if taken in time and property
treated. When you buv Red Cross,
Christmas Seal you help Minnesota D,
"take them in time' and to eliminate
the needless suffering and needless
loss occasioned by che white plague
in this state. Tuberculosis leaves
more destitute widows and orphans
than any other disease-Red Cross
Seals save families from misery.
If Minnesota raises the fund which
it should, it will mean that poverty
will not prevent the proper treatment
of tuberculosis victims. Adequate
funds will make possible the free SER
vice of physicians for diagnosis and
treatment, the care of visiting nurse,
and the provision Of proper diet and
open air livino for the patient amt
protective care for the families of the
poor.
Of course we want our community
to rank among the first in per capita
seal sales this year. The way to do"
this is not to talk about it, but to
buy seals. Let us put them on our
calling cards, on our private and bus
mess correspondence, bills, packages:
and everything that will hold them
from now until the end of the year.
II each of us purchased one hundred
seals, think of what our community
and the state could do in Kidding itself
Of disease next year!
