to be worked to is two 40-foot road

On single road with 50-foot right

The point is that it II the duty OF

BEST TREATMENT FOR collie
improper Feeding IL Most Common
Cause of Troubie=physic OF
Salts or Oil Is Favored.

CBy L. L. LEWIS, Oklahoma Experiment
Statlon.)
Collie in horses and cattle is from
various causes, but is more particu.
larry due to sudden changes in feed
or to eating more feed than can be
easily digested by the animal at that
time. The amount of feed that an ami.
NAL may digest at one time under
certain conditions may be entirely too
much under other conditions. Since
collie may be caused by so many differ.
ent things, no one remedy will prove
effective in all cases.
AS general rule, most of the COLES
that are seen in farm stock are due to
improper feeding. In those cases the
best general treatment that might be
used would be to give as early as pos
sible physic Of salts or oil. To re-
lieVe the pain seen particularly tn
spasmodic collie. the safest general
treatment that can be used Is TO give
from one to one and one-half ounce
or choral hydrate. dissolved In a pint
OF water. TO which has been added one
teaspoonful of ground ginger.
Do not give laudanum In such cases.

poorest remedies that you can use.

there is no other way of investing It
