What Is "WoIf-in. .the-Tail"7 ?

In the same category with "hollow "
horn", and the signs of the Zodiac, as
influencing mundane affairs, should be
placed that other mythical disease "wolf-
in-the-tail". We expect this suggestion
may astonish or displease some owners
of cattle who have been brought up to
believe that q "soft place" just In front
of the brush of the tail is sure sign OF
sickness, and who have seen father or
grandfather split the part open, pack 1t
with salt and butter, tar, pepper, garlic,
turpentiue, or some other mendicsnt and
apply cotton batting and bandage.
We knew of one old quack who found
"wOlf-in-the-tsil" present In every cow
he treated and whose favorite remedy
was whiskey. furnished by the owner
He possibly thought that as whiskey
comes from the worm 1t should 90 to the
worm, which Ia supposed to cause the
condition. Anyhow he had faith in the
treatment, for he dosed himself more
literally than the COW. Being also the
salaried village undertaken for dead ami
mails his business was quite lucrative. II
ia q shame, however, that such men are
allowed to "practice" and that belief In
mythical diseases and absurd methods OF
treatment Is fostered by such empirics.
It is high time that animals were pro.
tected from msltreatment by such men
and given Intelligent attention by OK.
perts.
Professor Dick of the Edinburgh, Scot.
land, veterinary college, away back In
the sixties, used to lecture and write
against the belief In "tsil-ilr or "tail.
siip". he said that the ailment is sup
posed to consist of "softening OF the
bones about the extremity of the tail
(nollities ossiun) and 10 to be distin
guished by the point of the tail being
easily doubled back upon itself and hav.
ing at this doubling soft and rather
crepitating kind Of fesp'. Then he wenl
on to show that such . condition is
necessary and natural In every COW.
"The tail of the OK, he said, sis length.
ened out to the extent Of three feet and
is formed like common whip. Towards
the extremity the bones terminate grad
ually, becoming insensibly smaller az
they approach the termination. At this
part Is found soft place, which is said
TO be the seat of the disease, the tail slip
Beyond this, again, firm, swelling, car
tilaginous portion 10 found, covered with
hair, TO brush of flies within Its reach
Here the column OF bones forms the elias

and the thong, the couple; while tht
thickened extremity may be easily rec
ognized to represent the thong, and thu

thus q whip to drive and brush to wipe

Apple Pomace for Dairy Cows.

l HPPHo EVAuoSO 1VE Douy SVWes
1t appears that there is belief among
dairymen that the dried apple pomace
has tendency to out down the milk
dow, or even cause COWS to 60 dry, al.
though pomacs fresh from tho cldeI
press ID generally recognized - being
good suoculent feed for milk COWS. To
test the soundness OF this belief, feed
ing trial has been carried out by the fed.
ersl department Of agriculture. Only
one COW WAS used In this test, and the
total quantity of dried pomace fed was
less than 400 pounds; therefore It must
be borne In mind that the results OBJ
tanned, while indicative, can not be 90.
cepted ~ conclusive.
In this feeding trial the dried apple
pomaoe was fed wet, and its feeding
value compared with that Of corn silsge,
since 1t is intended to be suoculent
feed. The pomace was prepared BY add
Ing to the dry material three times It's
weight OF water several hours before
feeding, thus producing feed similar in
water content to that Of corn sllage.
For . period of 30 days the cow re-
ceived q balanced ration consisting Of
grain, hay, and corn silage. The silage
was then replaced by the apple pomaoe
for similar length of time, allowing q
Today transition period for the change
in diet, and after like transition period
at the end of 80 days the original ration
containing silage was resumed and con-
tinued for third 80 day period.
The quantity fed (s6 pounds Of wet
no-.oo m. davN -. sooh That kha kokal
dry. matter In the pomace equaled the
weight Of dry matter In the silage re-
placed. The quantities Of grain and
hay fed remained practically constant
throughout the whole experiment. The
indications are that no bad effects follow
the feeding Of dry apple pomace. There
WAS no decrease In the milk flow nor In
the yield of butter fat.
When fed ss described the dried po-
mace appeared to be equal, pound for
pound of dry matter, to good corn silage
as q succulent food for this dairy cow.
Owing to the property which 1t possesses
of absorbing large quantities OF water
and swelling, 1t should never be fed dry,
but should be allowed to soak In water
for an hour or 80 before feeding. The
pomace appears to be q palatable feed.
ing stuff.
Caution is advised in feeding dried
apple pomace, as there 10 q possibility
that the feeding Of large quantities, or
quantities containing excessive amounts
Of apple seeds, might prove injurious.
1t appears to be safe, however, to feed as
much soaked pomace by weight one part
dried pomace to three parts water as 1t
would be to feed the same amount OF
pomace fresh from the cider press.
