Why and How to Give the Animal
a Rub Down.
It Keeps the Skin and Coat Clean and
lhaproves the Appearance—Bacil-
liarm White Diarrhoea of Chicks.
(Contributed byOntario Department of
Agriculture. Toronto.)
HORSES are groomed for the
purpose of keeping the skin
and coat clean, and incident-
ally ' improving the general
appearance. The skin consists of two
parts, viz,., the dermis or corium
which forms the deep layer, which is
plentifully supplied with both blood
vessels and nerves, and the epidermis
or cuticle which is external and has
neither blood. nor nerve supply; hence
Is nonvascular and insensitive and
serves as a protective covering fob the
dermis. It consists of a layer " of
agglutinated cells which are formed
on the surface of the dermis.
In the tissueitnm.ediately under-
neath the dermis are large numbers of
sudoriferous or sweat glands, each of
which is surrounded by a quantity of
fat. These glands are round bodies,.
each of which consists of one or more
small tubes coiled into a ball; the
free end of the tube opens on the sure
face by a funnel -shaped orinee.
The skin of the horse is character-
ized by its great sensitiveness, which
its still further promoted by good
grooming. Few animals, if any, pers-
pire as freely. as the horse.
As stated, the cells of the epidermis
are formed by the dermis. This tor-
mation of cells is continuous, as is
also,the exfoliation of the cells of the
external surface of the epidemis. The
hair prevents the free escape of these
scales, hence there .is a tendency to
accumulation; the coat also gathers
dust, etc., from the surroundings, and
if the animal is not groomed the coat
soon becomes filled with the accumu-
lation, which becomes damp when the
animal perspires. It is claimed that
this .has a tendency to occlude the -
openings of the sweat glands, hence
interfere with free perspiration. Whe-
ther or not there is much force to
this contention, it is an undisputed
fact that the horse that is regularly
and well groomed looks better, feels
better and gives more satisfactory
service than his mate under the same
conditions Iess the grooming. The
object of grooming is to remove the
scales, dust, dried perspiration and
.other foreign substances regularly.
In order to do this a curry comb of
some nature must be used, that when
being worked by the hand, both with
and against tthe grain of the Bair, will
agitate the hair to its exit from the
skin, thereby loosening all foreign
substances. The comb should not
have teeth sufficiently sharp to scar-
ify or irritate the skin. Then a stiff
brush should be used to remove all
foreign matter that has not escaped
during the use of the comb. When
the coat is quite short the use of the
comb is not necessary, the stiff brush
being sufficient. A finer brush, the
bearing surface of which consists of
bristles should now be used to re-
move anything that still remains,
after which the whole surface of the
body should be well rubbed with a
clean linen cloth. The tail and mane
should be well brushed with the stiff
brush. and then combed with combs
designed for the purpose.
It is well, under ordinary condi-
tions, to groom a horse well twice
daily. If -a horse has perspired freely
it is good practice to rub him well
with cloths until he becomes dry. If
this be neglected he should be°groom-
ed to remove the dried perspiration
and other accumulations before he is
- fixed for the night, as under such con-
ditions -he doubtless rests'better.—
Dr. J. I I. Reed, O. A. College, Guelph.
Bacillary White Diarrhoea of Chicks.
This disease is responsible for
many deaths among young chicks.
Affected birds appear stupid and re-
main under the hover or hen much
of the time.- They isolate themselves
from the rest of the flock; their -fea-
thers become rough and the wings
droop. They eat little or nothing
although they mechanically peck at
things. A thin whitish or creamy
sticky discharge comes from the vent
and clings to the down, frequently
clogging up the vent. The birds be-
come short backed or hunched up"
and mostly die in a few days,—a few, -
however, survive.
Post mortem . examination shows
loss ,.of flesh; the alimentary canal is
usually empty except for some slimy
fluid. The organs are all pale. The
liver may have a few dark streaks.
The trouble usually starts with
chicks hatched from eggs laid by a
hen whose ovary is diseased. . Other
chicks in the hatch soon pick up the
bacteria from the droppings of the af-
fected chicks and so the disease
spreads. Those chicks .that take the
disease and apparently recover will
usually have diseased ovaries, conse-
quently the eggs which they lay are
liable to produce the disease in the
chicks hatched from them. .In addi-
tion to this, however, their egg -laying
powers will usually be low, and the
infertile eggs among those that are
laid will be a high percentage. Con-
sequently it is bad policy to use for
breeding purposes those birds that
`have 'suffered from white diarrhoea
when they were young.
Healthy chicks should be removed
from contact with affected ones and
placed in clean, disinfected surround-
ings. It is a good policy to kill and
burn die affected specimens and then
thoroughly disinfect everything with
which they have come in contact.—
D. R. Jones, O. A. College, Guelph.

ready about now and will make a

HARPER & BROTHRRS
(Continued from last week.)
At the foot of the long carry, in
the late afternoon, Noel the Bear
found a small village of tents the
night home of the Marthorn expedi-
tion. The chattering chef, a hopping
homunculus, was bossing his surly
woodsman helpers; he comically
answered to that likeness ascribed to
him -an angry squirrel. Before each
tent a campfire sent up . its sparks
and lazy coils of smoke shed the in-
cense of burning birch. The canoes,
a whole flotilla, *ere turned upside
down en the sandy beach, which the
river eddy had spatted smooth. Men
and women strolled or lounged in
hammock chairs; they were patently
metropolian folk whose fashionable
outing- ga`rb, mocking real rough-and-
ready clothing, seemed more like
masquerade attire than wonted gar—
ments. ments.
.The Mellicite chief stalked on along
the carry trail, his eyes observing all.
though he appeared to take no notice.
'Miss Marthorn directed her father's
attention by a touch of his arm.
`There's another Indian—an old
one!" t .
"He . may have more sense than the
other fellow. Here! You!" he call-
ed, sharply. "Yes, I mean you!" he
added when Noel halted. "Come
here!"
Colonel Marthorn, roughing it in
his air chair, did not lift his head
from' the comfortable res' at the
back. "I need an Indian to go along
with my party. My daughter and her
friends - want to know the Indian
names for places and find out about
the Indian ways of camping, and so
forth. Go and ask for Mr. Durkee,
the head guide. He will arrange for
pay. You understand, eh?"
In the Indian's sunken eyes .there
was a little flicker which men seldom
saw there. Bat that light did not
signal resentment, one could discern,
because the creases at the corners of
his mouth deepened in a !grim smile.
The sunset was red, but the colors
in which Colonel Marthorn had array-
ed his portly form in order toedis-
tinguish himself perfectly from any
wandering deer made the sunset seem
pale. Sunburn had painted on kis
face a flame almost as lurid as hls
garb. Old Noel stared steadily at
the colonel for, a long. time in silence
and then set his eyes on `the blazing
westering sun and sighed in evident
relief. -
"By gacl!" whispered a gentleman
in Colonel Marthorn's party to an-
other guest, "of course that old buck
doesn't know enough to carry out a
fine job of satire like that, but for
unconscious work -it's very peachy."
"I say! Understand?"
"No can go! .No time!"
"The Indians up this way seem to
be very busy persons," grumbled the
colonel. "A young Indian overtook
us to -day And refused to take the
job. A saucy fellow—wouldn't tell
us his name! Did you meet him? Do
you know him?"
There , was malice in the . old In-
dian's unaccustomed humor—mere
good-natured raillery was not pos-
sible with him.
"Yes! Busy!, - He's doctor. 011ie
doctor! Cure eyes for animals in
woods. Right now much to d'o."
Hee-Marched off down -the trail.
"Confound .it, that old wretch has
just insulted me!" exploded the
colonel, after a few moments of
meditation. "That's what he meant
by looking at my clothes as he did'."
In a few moments the chief guide
came past the master's throne, on
tour of inspection. "Durkee, who was
that old Indian who passed here?"
"Noel the Bear, sir. Chief of the
Mellicite tribe, sir."
"There was -another Indian I talked
with to -day. I meant to ask you be-
fore who he might Abe."
"Paul Sabatis, of the Tarratines,
sir. College graduate. The news-
papers printed a lot about him when
he was captain of the football team."
Colonel Marthorn devoted' some
rrtdtnents to deep reflection. "Durkee,
have you any_ dukes in disguise among
your 'guides?"
"I think not, Colonel." .
"Any uncrowned kings I'm likely to
bump into up here?"
"Oh no."
"I was beginning to have my wor-
ries," confided the colonel to one of
the guests, a home -office dignitary of
the Great Temiscouata Company. "I
am up here to distribute the balm of
a diplomatic peace and show how
tact may win battles. I seem to be

Guide - Swenson, setting tauter the
tacks of fly -ropes on the colonel's tent,
heard that dialogue without - under-
standing any of the big words. -
"He ban 'fraid he llomp into some
king tip here. I could tal him some-
t'ing—he batter not bomp into a
queen," he said at the guides' table
where supper was served. "Clare
Kavanagh she ban op on the X. K.
lands."
When Colonel Marthorn mentioned
his "worries" he smiled and touched
his sentiments with tone of irony.
However, when he lay down that
night on his air mattress the murmur
of the water in the river eddies did
not lull him to sleep immediately. He
was conscious of a certain sense of
uneasiness; his uneasiness was ag-
gravated by the fact that die was not
able to determine just what was the
matter with him. The big outdoors
rather •awed l,Iimhe' admitted that:
Bulwarked in his New York office,
he had accepted deference and obed-
ience as natural perquisites attached
to his position.
He had become aware that the
toilers i!n his expeditionary entourage,
the woodsmen who served' him as
guides and helpers, did not display
the humility he had expected. They
did not seem to be ?impressed at all
by his personality. He had been led
to believe that his coming into the
north country would have value in
emphasizing the importance of the
Great Temiscouata Company; Vice-
president Donaldson had so assured
him.. Donaldson had pictured a sort
of triumphal progress.
Behind the paneled oak of his New
York office, Colonel Marthorn had en-
tertained not the least doubt that he
would be able to put Clare Kavanagh
where she belonged when he should`
arrive face to face with that young
woman. In the absence of any special
information about her, except that she
was a sullen, _ ill-inannered recluse in
his daughter's class at Manor Verona,
he had not troubled himself with any
apprehension about his ability to
make her see her best interests, or, -
failing in that, to subdue any opposi-
tion that was captained by a girl.
Drowsiness came to him - and mel-
lowed. some of those vague and un-
comfortable feelings which had been
irritating him. Mumble of men's
voices on the little beach did not dis-
turb him; the low monotone was
rather soothing.. Before he fell
asleep the voices became less cautions.
"Everybody snoozinz, I reckon."
"Yep. Plum full o' them Dago
vittles."
"It must be cussed stuff when it
takes us two hours to scour out these
spiders and .kittles. I'm a good mind
to leave it some of this sand. Their
blasted old gizzards must need it!"
"What kind of cheese was it the
sport brought in that we guided on
the Soubungo trip?"
"Edam, so he said!
"Every ti ti o c -at Old He one
it comes over me t t I could pile up
some of those cheeses and make some-
thing to look just like him in that
rig he's wearing. Wonder if he has
to do anything except eat:"
"Probably not. They all have their
money left to 'em, city critters like,
hien. Couldn't earn a dollar for
themselves."
Cclonel Marthorn, financier, rolled
over on his air mattress and growled.
'
Outside of 'getting up more appe-
tite by the doctor's orders, what's he
up here for?"
" From what I've caught from time
to time, it's to have 'em bring forth
the royal diadem and crown him king
of all."
There - was a japgle _ of iron, as of
spider thrown contemptuously into
kettle. "You don't mean to say that
he expects, or anybody expects for
him, that he'll be anything like what
John Kavanagh was in this section!"
"Some of those city snobs .expect a
whole lot before they have a chance
to find out."
"Say, look here! Most funerals put
a man away forever. Old X. K.'s
funeral only ' made him more alive!
Good Gawd! boy, except for the yelp
of his cussing and the flat of his
hand he's the living boss of this sec-
tion to -day, and the Colleen Clare
stands for all he was—no, all he is!
She may never learn to cuss, but as
for the flat of the Kavanagh Band-"'
Colonel Marthorn rolled off his bed.
The flat of the Kavanagh hand!
"Here you! You two on the beach!
Off with you!"
Ironware rattled and two shadows
went flitting.
When the colonel lay down again
he remained wide-eyed for a long
time.
He reached to his night stand for
his hbttle of sunburn cream; his
cheek was smarting cruelly.
CHAPTER RVI
Noel the Bear continues his pilgrim-
age, striving to reconcile his doubts
with his conscience, and takes an-
other child by the hand.
Noel the Bear found his Toban bark
Canoe in its hidden cache, crawled un-
der the upturned shell, propped his
head on a thwart, and .slept, not mind-
ing the tingle in the night air.
In the morning he went on his
way, paddling stolidly, his mouth full
of the savor of parched corn and wild
honey. He went without sound, not
lifting the paddle's blade from the
water. The river displayed to him its
secrets as frankly as had the forest;
a mink darted along the ledges, carry-
ing a flapping fish for breakfast. In
a logan, branching from the river, a
buck fed on the roots of the lilies,
thrusting his muzzle deep in the wa-
ter, then lifting his head and munch-
ing without troubling to open his drip-
ping eyes. A. muskrat, with tail
straight up like a sailless mast, swam
in circles, searching for sweet grass,
and a pair of foxes capered in a clear-
ing, scampering about on the frosted
sward in the pure joy of their .sun-
rise playtime.
,So he w t on, making the carries,
skirting OR shores of the dead -waters.
In the course of time he came to
Ste. Agathe and lifted out ' above
Tulandic. He trudged through the
village, erect, his . bark canoe like a
shell on his back.
"Hoi, Noel! Going for beaver-
tail?" hailed a man.
"Uh!" He did not ' pause.

E FARM
THE horse has been declared by Thomas Edison to be the most inefficient
- the t care e needed
machine in the world. In return for amount of f ood�and c r
the hose returns less in work than any other machine.
The 'average text of farm horses costs $400, a
goad set of double- harness $100, a wagon without
box $115, making a total of $615.
A Ford Truck costs $750 at Ford, Ont. A Fordson
Tractor costs $850 at Dearborn Mich.
The initial cost of motorizing a farm is slightly
greater than the cost of a horse outfit, but the lower
cost of operation and upkeep of the tractor and truck
and the greater amount- of work done easily put
the horse out of the running.
Government experiments have proved that the cost
of feeding a horse is 8.7 cents per working hour.
A team of horses cannot plow more than two acres
in a ten-hour day. At 8.7 cents per hour or 17.4
cents per hour for aateam, the cost would be $1.74,
or 87 cents an acre. A Fordson Tractor plows on an
average of seven acres a day. The cost per acre
averages not more than 75 cents per acre for gas and
oiL The Fordson does three and a half times as
much plowing in a day at a smaller cost per acre.
Suppose you are hauling produce to market or bring-
ing out supplies. If the town is twenty miles away it
will take you a whole day to make the return trip
with 'horseb. If you have a heavy load and the
weather is hot it will take you two days. If it took
you twelve hours, the cost at 17.4 cents an hour for
your team would be $2.09. The average cost of run-
ning a Ford Truck, for gas and oil, is 4% cents a mile
or $1.80 for the forty miles. But with the Ford
Truck you can make the return trip in four hours.
The truck enables you to make three times as many
trips and at a lower cost per trip.
But this is not all. If you motorize your farm you
can get up an hour later in the morning. You have
no horses to feed, groom or harness. You start work
after breakfast.
When dinner is ready you stop at the end of the field,
drive your tractor direct to the house, eat your dinner, _-
and rest till it is time to go to work again.
In the afternoon your motor works just as well though
the sun is hot and the fflies are bad.
And at night when work is over you are through for
the day, --,--no horses to rub down, feed or water.
You are always free to leave your farm for picnic or
vacation—no worry about horses left behind to be
cared for.
Every way you look at it the motor has the advantage over the horse. It
means shorter hours on the farm, more work done in less time and at less cost.
