SAFE Squeeze Gates.

tion, known as the squeeze gates, nj
fords an excellent method of holding
cattle for treatment.
In a great many cases, especially
with young cattle they are chased I'M
til they become heated and excited;
then are roped and thrown. This is
not only detrimental to the ailing ami
mai but often puts them in q very awk-
ward position to work upon.
With squeeze gates it is possible,
with the aid Of feed, to coax the ani-
nal quietly into the stanehion and use
the gates if the case demands them.
Even with mich cows that are more
doeile there is more or less danger, BY
The sudden movements of the COW, Of
breaking an arm when treating the
genital organs.
For cases of abortion, where the
genital organs should be constantly
treated and freely dressed with anti
septic solutions, the squeeze gates are
worth many times their initial cost, for
when treating such cases the two
gates are swung around and by means
Of racheted props the animal is held

promptly explore the parts with a
view to ascertaining if there is d for

rhage to- prevent waste of blood, writes
w. G. Fair, veterinary surgeon, in
Ohio Farmer. The latter can often be
Gone by twisting the blood vessel or.
tying it, or by compression. The
wound should then be washed with an
antiseptlc solution Of some kind. It is.
important that the wound have proper
drainage. Tt may be necessary to do q
little cutting before good drainage is
obtained. A wound that pockets sell
dom heals quickly. Small wounds
about the head and neck should frs
be cleaned peroxide Of hydrogen ap
