years old. A liberal supply of salt
and good water and plenty of fresh
air and exercise are essential for the
proper development of young horses.
Idleness succeeding exercise will cause
constipation. 1t is often said that a
horse is made during his first winter.
Certainly this is a critical time in the
animals life, and at no other age will
proper feed and attention do so much
to make of him a good horse. If
stunted during the first winter he
never will gain proper size and shape.
Foals should be changed from dry
feed to pasture gradually ana should
not be turned on pasture until the
grass is old enough not to become

RIGHT MANAGEMENT OF COLT
Practical Suggestions for Feeding and
Care During Early Life-How
to Promote Growth.

From the United States Department OF
Agriculture)
Colts should be housed In dry, eani-
tary quarters, which give fairly warm
protection from winds. Where sew.
eral of TIE animals are kept togeth-
er it is important to make provision
for the weaker ones and see that they
are not driven away from their feed
by the stronger animals.
The quarters should be kept clean
and well bedded and occasionally
should be disinfected. Lice are to be
suspected when the animals get to
rubbing and lose patches of hair.
Thorough washing with the proper
solutions of coal-tar disinfectants will
kill lice. 1t costs money to feed lice,
consequently efforts should be made
to keep them down. The foals should
be out in the open every day that is
not stormy; 1t is harmful, however,
for them to remain out in a cold rain.
The foal should be taught to lead and
to stand tied during the first winter.
Feeds that will promote growth
should be supplied. Good, clean clover
hay is palatable and slightly laxative.
Timothy hay commonly is fed. Well
cured alfalfa hay free from dust is
one of the best roughages for growing,
but because of its relatively high pro-
TEN content it generally is economical
to supplement 1t with other roughage
such as timothy, mixed hay, or corn
fodder. Besides lending variety to
the ration such a method of feeding
alfalfa would Offset any likelihood Of
kidney or bowel Irregularities. Sheaf
oats can be used to advantage to sup
plement other roughage. The animals
should not be allowed to gorge them
selves on dry feed. They should be
given only what they will clean up
readily, but at the same time enough
feed should be supplied. Oats, corn,
and peas, preferably fed ground. are
suitable grains. Bran, oil meal, or
gluten feed will add protein and lend
variety. Cottonseed meal should not
be fed to foals. Appropriate grain ra-

Plant Strength Will Force
Stones Out of Their Place

One would scarcely associate great
strength with so delicate and fragile
a thing as maiden hair fern, yet If its
roots have not sufficient room they will
break the pot in which the plant
grows. Blades of grass will force the
curbstones between which they spring
up out of their place. Indeed, plants
are on record as having broken hard
rocks. The island of Aldabra, to the
northwest of Madagascar, is becoming
smaller through the action of the
mangroves that grow along the foot
of the cliffs.

Food for Thought

You never can tell. The I'M

he gets.
Paradoxical as it may seem,
many a fellow has a weakness
for strong language.
Foresight may be all right, but
it won't keep a man from being
stabbed in the back.
The German army has evident
ly discovered that it is cheaper
to move than to pay rent.
The pessimist is always look

Progressive Republicans, Led by
Perkins, Plan for Next
Presidential Race.

The progressive element of the Re
publican party through its victory at
St. Louis, where they brought about the
defeat of John I. Adams of Iowa, as
chairman of the Republican National
Committee and the election of VIII
HAYS Of Indiana, have obtained such
control of the organization that the Sc
lection of progressive candidate for
the Presidential nomination in 1920 is a
certainty, according to leaders who ne
turned yesterday.
The progressive victory was q sweep
ing one, and the old guard element of
the organization was completely routed,
the Hays supporters assert. With the
gaining of the organization machinery
the progressives feel that they will have
complete control of the party from now
on. That it means the selection of
Col Roosevelt or more likely, Hiram

standard bearer at the next Presidential
