(By w. r. GILBERTJ

Nowadays farmers are beginning to
awaken to the fact that it takes strong
horses to do good work on the farm.
The fact that almost any horse can
be made to do something at farm work
is no valid excuse for men who pro
TESS to have their own interests at
heart to persist in breeding horses

Drinking beer and other liquors also

Evaporation OF the moisture Of the feet
Is necessary. But there must never be

moisture always present, Il Is necessarily
kept cold BY the Yapors, and this makes
cold feet.

as the feet in a vigorous condition.
The reason women have cold feet
oftener than men Is twofold One Is due
70 tight shoes. the other to emotional In
stead Of muscular excuses. One OF the
most frequent causes Of cold feet is. un-
doubtedly. shoes that shut on. squeeze
and trap the flesh and iow Of blood In
the feet. Unless there Is space between
the toes and feet and the interior of the
shoe there can be little warmth. There
Is left no space for air and evaporation,
nor enough room for muscular motion,

comfort.
Plainly, these researches Of Professor
Unna win be the means whereby many
victims Of cold feet viii be able TO rid
themselves Of the nuisance. and many a
