be caused bygorging with feed, drink-
ing much cold weter when hot, being
given an aloes purgative ball without
preparation, or delving upon a hard
road. Until a .qualified veterinarian
can be employed much relief can be
given by removing the shoes, pulling
the horse downon a deep bed of Straw
in a box stall, and keeping cold or hot
poultices ,or swabs `upon the feet.
Medicinal treatment consists in giving
two ounces of powdered saltpeter, or
one ounce of povvdered alum in water,
and then half -ounce doses every three,
four, or six hours, according to the
severity of the attack, until the vet-
erinarian arrives. Bleeding is no

Use of saltpeter or alum makes that

Farmers' Investments.
Not long ago a young fellow drove

wonderfuleinvestment scheme. • This
glib -tongued worker was going to let
me and a 'few other investors in on the
ground floor, and the offer would soon
be closed. FortunatelY for me, I had
heard of the trick before. I know of

Three Dairy Barn Labor -
Savers.
Most dairymen welcome labor -
savers. One' of the big labor -savers
is the individual watering cup for each
cow. Besides doing away with the
chore of watering, these cups are sani-
tary and enable the cows to get water
any time they want it. This fact, no
doubt, tends to increase milk produc-
tion. The time it takes to water a
large stable of cows in the course of
a year would pay for the installation
of this watering system. Those who
have tried the watering systems are
loud in their praises.
