GIVE HELP TO FALLEN HORSE
First Unhitch Him and AIIay Fears

ment Of Agriculture.)
When q horse falls in harness he al
most Immediately struggles to regain
his feet. A strong, healthy horse will
not remain down voluntarily, but in
his efforts to rise he may become
frightened. If the driver will give
the right kind Of first aid he can pre-
vent serious injury to the animal.
Held down by the harness the horse
seldom has sufficient freedom to rise
to his feet, though enough to struggle
and injure himself by pounding his
head on the ground. Accordingly the
driver should calm the horse first by
speaking in reassuring tone and, by
placing his knees upon the animals
neck just back of the ears, endeavor
to prevent injury from struggling or
from bruising his head. An intelligent
horse quickly learns to place great
confidence in the voice of a good
driver.
The traces and breeding straps
should be unfastened and the vehicle
rolled back from the fallen animal. If
the horse is in double hitch, the traces
and yoke strap should be unfastened
and the pole, vehicle, and working
mate moved a short distance away.
An injured horse will then regain his
feet readily if he has suitable footing.
In case the ground is icy, scatter some
fine sand, sawdust, or straw under
and in front of him. If nothing Of this
kind is available, spread a blanket or
burlap bagging on the pavement to
give him better footing as he attempts
to stand.
In case the horse needs more help
and encouragement, and especially If
he lies broadside, roll him on to his
chest, with the hind legs under the
belly. Then work both front legs for
ward until the feet are firmly on the
| ground and knees dexed. If after re
| peated efforts and good footing he
continues to fall back upon the ground
there is possibly some injury to the
hind parts, such as fracture Of the
hip or leg, which should be examined
by a qualified veterinarian.
In all efforts to assist faller
horse do not forget that in rising t.
i his feet he raises the head and fort

PLANT ELMs AND LIADENs
For the Parkway They Have Many
Advantages Over Others That
Might Be Selected.

A correspondent asks advice regard
Ing the kind of trees to plant in the
parkway in front of his home.
Several people advised elms," he
writes, "but they are such slow grow
ers, and as l am not young would
like to plant some kind that will
have chance to enjoy. l am also
thinking of planting four fruit trees
in the yard, probably three cherries,
as they seem to do better than most
fruit trees, and pear or an apple.
The American elm is by far the
best tree for this purpose. 1t grows
fast enough, starts to branch high and
does not obstruct the view. 1t arches
beautifully, high up over the street.

The American linden might grow a
little faster, but the tussock moth likes
it too well. The American ash grows
faster, but it soon gets shaggy, is sus-
ceptible to boring insects and drops it's
leaves in August. The sycamore is
| good and faster grower, but it's bark
is shaggy. The blackberry is just as

The red and pin oaks are better, but

Dirty Plano KEYS.

It Is more important to keep the.
keys clean than many people are
aware, especially II several students
are practising on the same instrument.
Dirty keys are a source of infection.
They should be wiped with damp

water runs down between the keys,
but sufficient to cleanse them of all
matter. Dry with soft cloth, md

Natural Desire for Home,

Civilization was founded on the de.
cision Of the caveman to establish for
himself home in the rocks, or ground.
and 1t progressed as he toiled" to make
that home better place for his FAM
lily. And today, even as then. the
torch of civilization is being carried
by the home-building instinct.
Man, today, wants home; some
thing not ornate but beautiful, to kim
die his Imagination and form the cen
ter for his dreams. A place that will
be proper setting for wife and chill
dren. A dwelling place that is sen.
tient thing.

ITS TURN COMING.

Some day we'll find unheeded
Grim wars relentless frown,
And we'll think upon what's needed
For our own home town.
To far-off peoples movements
Well be lending less renown,
And we'll hustle for improvements -
In our own home town.
When we've taught the distant nation1
To lay their burdens down, h
Well claim just appropriations
For our own home town.

Injuries to horses are common dur
ing the winter months in cities where
snow becomes packed and forms an
icy coating on the pavement. In most
cities above the frost belt there are
times when payements are slippery.
Asphalt Is especially troublesome
and when covered by very light sleet
or snow makes very treacherous
footing for horses. The milkman or
baker. who drove upon clean pave
ment the night before, may find the
streets at a. m. so nearly impossible
from a coat of smooth ice as to delay
his deliveries very greatly or even
prevent them entirely.
In country districts horses remain
sharp or rough shod for a considerable
time. But If they are driven much ON
city streets paved with stone, cement,
or asphalt, from which the snow has
been removed, their shoes quickly be-
come smooth and it is difficult for the
horses to keep their feet.
When the front feet slip backward
horse is likely to fall and injure his
knees. while side clipping generally
causes him to come down broadside.
ShOeing with rubber pads. or the use
of emergency appliances may lessen
the chance of slipping. but as there is
always the possibility of horse fall
ing, even when well shod, careful driv.
ing and precautions against overload.
ing are important additional means for
reducing these accidents and injuries
to a minimum.
