Meanwhile Gov. Henry S. Johnston
declined to entertain a committee of
representatives sent to inform him the

First of all, your Legislature is

Gov. Johnston then handed the com

SAVING

The secret of preventing sore
shoulders of horses is correct fit
ing collars and harness adjust
ments. says the United States de
partment of agriculture. , The
horses shoulders, which + like
" TO become soft because of idle
ness in winter, should be given
special attention during the spring
fitting season and up until the
muscles harden. At the beginning
of the spring work clean the horses
shoulders carefully after each
DAVIS work and before Harvesting
the next morning. After removing
the harness. wash the shoulders
with warm water and CASTLE soap.
then rinse with cold water with
a little salt dissolved in it. This
treatment may be discontinued at
the end Of 2 or 8 weeks, but care
full daily grooming and cleaning OF
the collars are always necessary.
The use of sweat pads on the col
lars is not advisable, as they seem
TO do more harm than good. Per-
sons who use the curry comb and
brush every morning and evening
usually experience the least trou-
BILE with sore shoulders when the
spring work starts.
