PROPER WATERING OF HORSE
Expert of North Dakota Experiment
Station Suggests Water Be
Given Before Feed.

The proper watering of the horse is
important. Mr.. Peters of the North
Dakota experiment station makes the
following suggestions. A horse that is
thirsty should be watered before being
red hay or grain, rather than after.
The reason for this is that the stomach
of the horse is comparatively small.
and If he eats heavy feed of grain
or hay or both, and then drinks large
quantity of water, portion of the
feed will be washed from the stomach
into the intestines before it has been
sufficiently acted upon by the digestive
huids of the stomach, and collie is like
~ to develop. The regular practice
Should be to water before feeding.

Declared to Be Bad Neiahbors for

Currant bushes are very bad neigh

SOME SEEDS CARRY DISEASE

and Distinction Is Favored as
Best Preventive.

Several willis and blights which at
tack ordinary vegetables are carried
from year to year on the seed. The
most common of these are celery blight
and some of the cabbage rots.
The best preventive in either case
is development of resistant varieties
and also a disinfection of the seed to
prevent carrying the disease to new
ground.

WHITEWASH MIXTURE

If your poultry house, stable
or hog barn Is infested with In
sects and you want to have
clean, fresh. attractive interiors
in your buildings, try the follow
ing mixture: Stake five quarts
of lime with hot water to the con-
sistency of cream. To this add one
pint of Zenoleum or a coal tar
product, and one pint of kerosene.
Dilute until it can be applied
with brush or spray pump. The
coal tar product kills disease
germs, the kerosene destroys
mites and the lime whitens the
walls.
