| ding is the best place to keep the
brood mare. If q tie stall is used, it
must be rOOmy.
z. Don't bed the brood mares stall
excessively. Too much bedding may
cause her to struggle when trying to
get up.
s. Don't confine the brood mare in a
stall that offers a place for her head
or legs to get caught, and cause her
to struggle.
9. Don't neglect to disinfect the foal-
ing stall thoroughly few days before
the foal is expected, using seven table
spoonfuls of compound cresol solution
per gallon of water. Neglect OF this
may cost the fOars life.
10. Don't give the mare heavy with
foal worm remedy unless advised by
the attending veterinarian.
IL. Don't give the Rlare heavy with
foal your favOrite collie remedy. The
foal is too valuable to risk such treat
ment. If the mare has collie, it is wise
economy to call a competent veterina-
rian.
IL. Don't neglect daily exercise as
a preventive of swollen hind legs that
often appear the last month or six
weeks before foaling.
13. Don't neglect giving her udder
attention. Daily exercise will do more
than medicine to reduce the swollen
and hardened condition that so often
makes it's appearance a month or six
weeks before fOaling.
II. Don't neglect painstaking care
and the exercise of common sense in
the management of the mare heavy
with fOal.
