HORSES DO NOT SWEAT
Unfortunate Condition Renders
Many Animals Useless.
Hot Sun Beating Upon Skin Prevents
Glands From Performing Func.
tions-Give Water and Rest
Quite Frequently.

tBy w. II. DALRYMPLE. Louisiana Ex-
pertinent Station.)
The veterinary department receives
frequent Inquiries, during the summer
months concerning horses that do not
seem to sweat when at work, either in
the field or on the road This is an
unfortunate condition which renders
many good animal more or less use
less while 1t lasts, but one that little
can be done for, 80 long as the cause
Is present, VIZ, the rays Of the hot
summer sun beating down upon the ex-
posed skin.
OF course all horses do not suffer In
this way, and 1t Is probable. we think,
that native-born animals are much
less susceptible than those from other
sections Of the country.
Authorities name this condition
"thermotaxic neurosis," which means
when translated, interference with the
heat-regulating apparatus through
temporary paralysis OF the nerve sup,
ply to the sweat glands. Or, In other
words, the hot sun beating upon the
skin prevents the sweat glands from
| performing their function, resulting ir
the dryness Of the skin. On the other
hand, 1t may be observed, in the same
animal. that the parts OF the skin pro
tected by the harness will be found tt
be moist from persplration; and OF
cloudy days, when the sun has beer
obscured, sweating may be found NOR,
or less general.
The sun. therefore, Is the activ,
cause Of this condition: and while 1
may be possible to relieve 1t, temper
ariIy, by treatment. as soon as the ami
NAL 10 again exposed to the heat ray
OF tho sun, II is liable to recurrence
OF the trouble.

holes in them. If each farmer and au.
tomobilist would follow the example
set by that progressive community in
Washington, this state would soon
have much better roads, says Florida
Grower.
There is an old saying that "a stitch
IN time saves nine," and this applies
forcibly to keeping up roads. When q
small hole appears fill it up. Don't
wait for the other fellow to do it, be.
cause rain may come along before
the fellow does, and by washing the
cast out leave place for wheels
to drop in and make the hole larger.
Rough roads are expensive for every.
one travelling over them. Wagons suf.
fer as well as automobiles. The strain
soon racks the wheels, spring the axles
ai'd Increase the draft Of the wagon
thus making 1t much harder on the
team.
Automobilists suffer more than wag.
oiis because they travel ut higher
speed. Springs, aXles, wheels end all
parts suffer and the car is soon ready
for the junk heap
DIR. w. G. Etheridge, professor Of
agronomy in the University of Flor.
ida College Of Agriculture, Is very
much in favor Of the "chuck- hole"
club" idea, and urges in addition that
farmers use the King drag on the road
along their property after each rain.

In 1872. for example, twO-ffths of the
cotton crop In South Carolina was
damaged by this insect.
The great mass OF red spiders pass
the winter on wild plants. With the
first warm days in the spring they be-
gin to multiply with great rapldity
ana 1t becomes necessary for them to
seek new feeding grounds. They ut
tack whatever weeds and garden plants
they may meet and ultimately find their
way into the cotton fields In the late
fatl When cotton Is no longer available
1or them. the spiders migrate, again to
thc wild plants which are frequently
found In the borders Of fields, and 1t
has been ascertnincd that In many
eases they infcst violet beds. Alto
Srthrr, this insect has been found
breeding on nearly POO species Of
plants, the most common of'which are
cotton. cultivated violet, sow thistle,
hollyhock. dnhlin, garden beans, corn,
tomato, onion, curnntion, sweet pea,
hedge nettle, nasturtium morning
glory, clover, wild yetch. ironweed,
Jerusalem oak. wild gcranium, evening
primrose. pokewced and strawberry.
Immunity From Pest.
Many of these plants are useless
weeds which can well be DESTROYED.
Where this has been done in md
around cotton fields, it has been found
III several instances that complete i'm
munity from the pest has been en-
Joyed the following season. Many
cases Of cotton infestation from the
red spider, however, can be traced to
cultivated plants in nearby dooryartls.
Such plants should be examined close
~ and sprayed rs soon as they show
any signs of infestation. The govern
ment investigators have tested large
number Of spray combinations in their
work against the red spider and have
found that the following are thorough
ly satisfactory:
Cd potassium sulphide, Il ounce to 2
gallons of water) (2) lime-sulphur
homemade or commercially; (3) kero-
sene emulsion (prepared according to
usual formula); (4) four-paste solu-
tion Il gallon of stock paste to 12 gal
ions OF water). Any one Of these
sprays If properly applied will kill all
the mites, but second spraying one
week later Is necessary to kill the in
sects that were In the egg stage Mt the
first spraying. 1t is also Of the utmost
Importance to remember that the mite
spends its life on the under side Of the
leaves. The entire under side Of every
leaf of an infested plant, therefore,
must be hit by the spray in order to
accomplish the desired result. AR.
senical sprays are Of no use against
this pest

finely pulverzed surface soil in the

general.
The red spider may ravage cotton
fields at any time from the middle Of
June to the middle Of September. Ger
tain fields are infested while others in
the immediate vicinity remain quite
free. The total extent Of the injury,
however, is likely to be very serious.

"What is believed to be the largest
fountain pen ever made for actual use
was completed few days ago in New
Orleans. This pen is made of silver
and holds two ounces Of ink. It is ten
inches long with the cap and eight
inches without the cap, not including
the point The pen weighs about four
ounces.

frequent intervals during the hot
