UNS0UND TEETH IN ANIMALS
In Selecting of Dam or Sire Careful
Inspection Should Be Made for
Defects in Mouth.

(By W. p. SHULER. Department of Vet
Urinary Medicine, Oklahoma A and NJ.
College. Stilwaterl
When we speak of an unsoundnesS,
II is conFmOn TO think of the limbs, re-
spirat0rs and generative organs, but
one of the common seats of cOngenital
faults is the mouth. The tendency in
animals To inherit soft" teeth and
malfOrmed jaws is very great, and in
selecting a suitable sire or dam, inspec-
ton for these defects should in no wise
be neglected. The condition of the
mouth and the form of the teeth re-
animal, the chief factor in health,
physical development and usefulness.
The congenital defects of the mouth
are the so-called parrot mouth, the I'M
dershot, and the scissor mouth. The
first two conditions may affect only
the incisor teeth, the upper incisOr
overhanging the lower in parrot
mouth and vice versa in the under
shot. A scissor mouth is one in which
the mOlar teeth are extremely beveled
The edges of the upper and lower
teeth meet at a long. acute angle like
the blades of scissors. They may af-
feet one side or both. A horse affect
ed with any of tho above conditions
can only be kept in shape physically
by oft repeated dressing and sharpen
ing of the teeth by a skilled veterinar-
ian. This is an unnecessary expense
and could be easily Obviated if lit
tie examination and fOrethOught were
shown in the selection of breeding
stock.
Any young horse whose mouth shows
badly worn mOlars should be rejected,
as this probably points TO soft" teeth,
and the discovery Of such conditions
should be sufficient ground to adjudge
it unfit for good breeding purposes.

FRUIT LAXATIVE

ACalifornia Syrup of Figs" can't

MORE ATTENTION TO APPLES
High Prices Received for Fruit Would
Indicate That II Is Being Neglect
ed by Farmers.

(By c. w. RAPP. Department of Horti-
culture. Oklahoma A. and NJ. College
Stillwater.)
The high price of apples in many
parts of the state during recent years
seems 10 indicate that this fruit is not
receiving its share of attention in the
home orchards. This Is probably due,
in part, to the fact that the apple is a
slow grower
Under normal conditions, peaches,
cherries and plums come into bearing
much sooner than apples. For this
reason the apple orchard is frequently
neglected. 1t grows slowly, and fire.
quently 1t does not fruit for five or
ten years after IT is set. While the
tree is maturing the owner becomes
discouraged, leaves this part of the or
chard neglected. and, as a result, the
proportion of apple trees which come
into bearing is very small.
Another reason for the neglect is
the fact that the wrong varieties are
frequently planted. This is, of course.
not discovered until the trees come
into bearing. When the owner dis
covers how poorly they are yielding.
he virtually abandOns the orchard.
Anybody who plants an orchard of
apples of the Winesap group. and who
tends 1t thoroughly during the years in
which it does not produce, should re-
ceive good returns on his investment
when the trees come into bearing.

Cattle ticks are great survivors.
Many of them survive temperatures as
low as 20 degrees below freezing, while
eggs if protected by grass or similar
material may survive zero weather.
Seed ticks can live in the grass for
three or four months in warm weather,
and for eight months if winters are in

The longer they starve, however. the
hungrier they get for cattle blood.
Starving ticks out is the slow way.
