REMEDY FOR ACUTE BL0ATlNG
One Quart Of 1Ls Per Cent Of Form
alln Recommended by Kentucky
Experiment Station.

Circular No. of the Kentucky ex-
pertinent station, Lexington KY,
states: I'VE strongly recommend, for
acute bloating (of cattle), one quart
of a L n per cent solution of formalin,
followed by placing a wooden stick in
the animals mouth and gentle exer-
else II the animal can be gotten up"
This treatment proved successful in
treating six cases of acute bloat at the
station during the last two years, suf-
fering from the ailment disappearing
in twenty to thirty minutes.
A study of the problem Of a success
ful treatment for bloat, other than
puncture, was brought about by the
usual growth OF white clover in
Kentucky pastures during the spring
OF 1913. Trouble with bloating or
hoven among cattle on legume pas
lures is quite common, especially dur.
ing the period when they are bloom
ing. Chemical study revealed that
there is a considerable quantity of
sugar in the blossoms of various leg.
umes, the amount varying from less
than l per cent to 3.6. and that there
is a natural fermentation of this sugar
to carbon dioxide gas, under the condi.
tions which exist in the digestive
tract.
After finding that bloating is caused
by fermentation of the sugar, in le-
gumes that are eaten, Doctor Kastle OF
that station suggested the use OF for.
maldehyde as a means Of relieving the
ailment. Lads Oona bloated badly on
white clover June 13, 1913. She was
drenched with one liter OF water con
tanning 40 C. C. of formalin, a block
OF wood being placed between the jaws
afterwards to keep her mouth open
AT the end OF 20 minutes" the cir
cular states, "she had entirely recov
cred. No bad after-effects followed
this treatment"

 when things are moving so fast and candidates changing so rapidly we cannot know who might be deemed the best man for the place when the time comes"

 The full text of the declaration of principles follows:
 'The progressive party began it's as a party of moral conviction and na- tional purpose. The progressive plat form of 1912 was of necessity a com posite of national and state issues, for the party was a new organization and had to speak at once for both nation and state. Since then, state issues, such as the short ballot, initiative, ref erendum and recall have been taken up in various state platforms.
 '"The national issues presented by our platform of 1912, and those for which we now stand, represent the vital needs of our national life. They are in substances:
