Overgrazing. during a sueeeseion of unfavorable seatrous, Cr sometimes during a single season, is probably. the most frequent cause of run. -down pasteeee, Weeds will thrive during a season unfavorable far the growth' of grass and when the light pastur- aage is continually weakened end re- duced by over -grazing, will establish themselves in the' dying sod, On the other hand, when a rank growth c'f grass stands ungrarecl for a long time there is a tendency for the sod to become weakened as the result of a superabundant torp -growth. Weeda. are then able to grow and multiply, but under these conditions they pro- bably never became so numerous and troublesome as under the 'extreme conditions of. over -grazing, While in the .ordinary use -of pastures: Under - grazing is not likely to occur, yet it is well to know fah advance the result of such practice. Stock' will not eat weeds unless forced to do so; but will graze more and more heavily on the diminishing patches of clean • grass; consequently the weeds -are continu- ally favored in their competition with the .grass for soil space, and unless moans °are token •to cheek them they may presently 'overrun and ruin the Pasture. The first step toward improving un- productive.pastures should be the de- etluction of weeds. When the land is level and open enough to allow the USG of a mower, all undesirable plants should be cut -before they make seed. Or the pasture may be fenced of in several areas, taking the weedier ones first, and the stack kept on an area until the weeds are eaten down, In this practice young Battle or sheep should be used. As the weeds are being destroyed the growth 'f the grass itself should be stimulated; and according, to the present knowledge of pastures the ap- plication of stable manure seems the only certain economical means of do- ing this. Whenever manure is avail- able, apply it to the 'pasture in ]aught dressings, covering first the scantiest patches, buteventually covering the whole pasture if possible. Another ex- cellent practice is to reseed the more unthrifty patches and then graze them sparingly until they an again thickly revegetated. Cultural treatment to improve the growth of pasturage, such as disking and harrowing, cannot be recommend- ed foreneral conditions. Doubtless g . there are extreme conditions of root- bound sod where cultural treatment would be beneficial in amprovitag the moisture relations of the plant; but these conditions cannot now be clearly defined, and the operation should pro- ceed cautiously, for by tearing the grecs roots more harm than good is liable to result. Likewise the application of com-' mercial fertilizer to pastures Is an extremely dubious practice. There i's of course •a stimulation of plant growth, but at present high prices for fertilizer no profitable returns may he expected under average conditions. Should a decided shift in the present relative prices of fertilizer and meat occur, doubtless a moderate applica- tion of phosptataic material, say two The hope of testing and the doom of hoarder cows 1,`e jn cow tenting as- sociations.

Water your horse as `often as possible. So long as a horse is work- ing, water in small quantities will not hurt him. But let him drink only- a few swallows if he is going to stand still. Do not fail to water him at night after he has eaten his hay. 4. When he comes ,]n after work, sponge off the harness marks and sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth, and the dock. Wash his feet but not his legs. 5. If. the thermometer is 75 degrees or higher, wipe him all over with a damp sponge, using vinegar water if possible. Do not wash the horse at night. 6. Saturday night, give a bran mash lukewarm; and add a tablespoonful of saltpetre, s 7. Do not use a horse -hat, unless it is a oanopy-top hat. The ordinary bell-shaped hat does more harm than good. 8. A sponge on top of the tread, or even a cloth, is good if kept wet, If dry it is worse .than nothing. 9. If the horse is overcome by heat, get him into the shade, remove har- ness •and bridle, wash out his mouth, sponge him all over, shower his legs, and give him two ounces of aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two ounces of sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of water; or give him a pint of coffee warm. Cool pais head at once, using cold water, or, if necessary, chopped ice, wrapped in a cloth. I0, If the horse is off his feed, try him with two quarts of cats mixed with bran, and a little water, and add a little salt or sugar. Or give him oatmeal gruel or barley water to drink. 11. Watch your horse. If he stops ;sweating suddenly, or ,if he 'breathes short and quick, or if his ears droop, or• if ho stands with his legs brewed sideways, he is in danger of a heat or sun stroke and needs attention at once. 12. If it is so hot that the horse sweats in the Stable at night, tie hitn outside, with bedding under hien, tins less he welts off during the night, he cannot well Fitand the next day's heat, It Is a common thing for farmers to work their horses in the hayfield from;morning t0 light, watering them only at noon: This is done even on -days of excessive heat. The driver usually has two or more refreshing drinks in the middle of the morning, and again in the afternoon; but the horses, tvho are equally as thirsty, go without. This want of water is not only distressing, but it causes t horses to drink to mese at noon and]' again at night, which often results in colic, and always tends to produce a distended stomach, or what farm- ers call "hay belly." Farmers who would treat their horses humanely should take water into the field for thein in hot weather. The collar should be just largo enough to permit a man's hand to pass inside the collar between the lower end of the pollee and the neck tie breast of the horse. If the collar is too loose it will cause friction; if too tight it will choke the horse, and tame sore withers, Test the fitting of the collar by lifting up the horse's head. The hams ehotild fit the :soil r; if too long, they will probably be buckled too tight at the top, and in this way the collar will be made to pinch the horse at the top. Sons thus produced begin by a`'pimple or very small boil, often overlooked be- cause the inane covers it. Examine 'pour horses continually, and if there is any sore spot, adjust the colter so that at will not touch that spot. If the skin is merely wrinkled, bathe it with witch hazel or diluted vinegar. tf the skin 18 broken, bathe it with `clean water, containinga little salt. If. the collar "rides up," it can be kept down by a martingale running to the girth, or by an extra girth running from trate to trace, back of the forelegs. . '•••• The hest collar for a mature horse, whose weight does not vary much throughout the year, is the leather collar. For most horses, the best collar ,is one Stuffed with hair, and covered with ticking, With this col- lar, if the horse's shoulder becomes sore at any point, the lining of the collar can easily 'be ripped, and the haler removed oi'•puslicd a.sicle at that polnt, so that' et pressure ;will come on the We place.
