The nature 1)2 the treatment ena- Ploy.ed In affected foals is to some extent governed by the orgIn- of the trouble, oo that tile cause should be ascertained if possible.. With the exception of those cases which have reeutted from. the Impro- per use of physic mediciees, it is no- uallY best to begin treatment by giv- ing a teaspoontul of laudanum, Com- bined with two ounces of. castor oil as a 1115003. 312 addition, a teaspoon- ful of. prepared ektille.and Powdered catechu may be,given in a cupful of boiled milk or tour gruel every four or five hoOre, 1111111 the Movements:of the bowels become more. re„amlar. Another coamme remedy is a, table- spoonful of lime water and a tea- epoonful of lattclanum, given in a little boiled milk, repeated .every four hours as re.quired.

It is a good plan to first fill the box nearly level full with evith aotl, then stand the plants on the surface where they are to be planted finally. By doing this the plants can be changed...about and re- arranged, and a good idea of the arrangement and effect desired can be obtained before nuttily planting them.
