VALUABLE HORSE HINTS

All horses, when turned out in pas
ture, are more prone to take their rest
lying down than when confined in
stable stalls, says a writer in Inland
Farmer. But even when practically
free from human restraint and obser-
vatlon, or any likelihood of danger,
they seldom take more than an hour
each night in the recumbent position,
and that period is generally INDUCED
in about midnight.
A noted veterinarian says: There

lying down. To a hard working horse

sity as good food and water, but tired
as he may be, he is an animal very
shy about lying down. | have known
instances where stablemen declared
that the horses in their charge had
never been known to take rest in that
manner, but always slept standing.
In purchasing a general purpose
horse, which will be used when rail
road, electric cars and autos are to be
met, don't buy a colt, because no
young horse is safe for women, chill
dren or inexperienced men to handle.

The first year of q Calls life is the

or Russia that they would suffer greatly

On the other hand the other parties
say, that to stop ceiling our products 70
these nations would be an act Of distines

would practically nullify the British
feet and therefore an act of hostility to
the allies.

deem his legislative business a failure

That is, he knows that he is not capable

some one who sees only one side.

to find out what the legislator meant
when he said ''dog". After much study
this learned body of trained attorneys
will often discover that the legislator

he thought he was spelling "cat"-and
strange to say, that it is very possible
that it was "cat" he really ment. Though
stranger yet, we have never heard of the

Then after that, the supreme court,

condition of body of unframed men
making laws, with body of trained men
unmaking or remaking them.
