KEEP YOUNG HORSE GROWING
Good Practice, When Not Carried to
Extremes, to Allow Colts to Rough
1t in Winter.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricuiture.)

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Colts that are kept growing make
the best horses. Some farmers allow
their young horses to trough it,
through the winter and, although this
is a good practice when not carried to
extremes, if the feeder is not careful
it may give. the colt setback which
permanently retards it's development.
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 it's relatively high protein
content it generally is economical to
supplement it with other roughage such
as timothy, mixed hay, or corn fc lder.
Besides lending variety to the ration
such method of feeding alfalfa would
offset any likelihood of kidney or
bowel irregularities. Sheaf oats can
be used to good advantage to supple
ment 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 glu-
ten feed will add protein and lend vari-
ETY.. Cottonseed meal should not be
fed to. foals. Appropriate grain ra-
tons for the first winter are: Two
parts corn, five parts oats, three parts
bran and one part oil meal; or four
parts oats, one part corn and one part
bran.
Silage should not be fed TO foals to
any considerable extent. Sliced roots,
such as carrots and sugar beets, are
very palatable and have cooling eff
feet on the digestive system. The
quantity of feed generally should be
regulated by the appetite, although oc-

casionally the appetite may be too raw
enous to be good indication. The
general condition of the colt and the
droppings should be observed daily.
Usually not over one pound of grain
per 100 pounds of live weight should
be fed until the animal is two years
old. A liberal supply of salt and good
water and plenty of fresh air and exer-
else are essential for the proper de-
velopment of young horses. Idleness
succeeding exercise will cause consti-
patton. It is often said that 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 as much to make
of him good horse. If stunted during
the first winter he never will gain
proper size and shape.
During the second winter the feed
and management should be nearly the
same as for the first winter, except
that the quantity of feed should be in
creased somewhat, the colt tied up in
his stall and handled frequently. Edu-
cation by gentle and careful but firm
handling at this age will save later
much strenuous labor.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re.
jecsed is because kidney trouble is SO COM
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has, been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would adj
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention ~this paper.-Adv.

And accordingly the young actor
