The Huron Expositor, 1872-09-13, Page 7ITe 1 Bernet; y for Maggots 'in Sheep. Rams hang large horns are - bole; during the hot weather, to have gigots more orless about th head, espe:;ially if they have wound ed the flesh by fighting or Nubbin the skin. We have frequently see these pests so numerous : on ram that thousands were crawling a over the neck and shoulders, and were trying to enter the ears of the .suffering brutes. If a sheep has been wounded by any means, flies are always ready in hot weather to deposit eggs, . which will ;;produce large worm in only a few days. The: most expeditious way to cleanse a sheep; or any other animal of such larva:, is to shear away the wool. If necessary, scrape off the larva✓ with a smooth stick, and pour on pine tar as hot as one can handle it with his bare hand. Small larvse inay sometimes be seen in the crevices between the base of the horns and the flesh. Let such cracks be opened, and a little warm. tar turned in. Pine -tar being of an oily nature, will not cause such in tense pain when applied to a wound as coal -tar, .which contains poison- o'Warm substances, arm pine -tar will lay out maggots in a few seconds, and flies will not deposit their eggs in a -wound smeared - with this sub- stance. Every person who keeps sheep should always provide a few quarts of pints -tar and keep .it in a close can,, as it will be found excel- lent for many other purposes. Mag- gots frequently appear in the feet of 'sheep. There is nothing better than line -tar to exterminate them and to repel the flies. How to Prevent Overreachi The usual remedy is' to make heel of the forward shoes from o to two inches longer than usual. The philosophy of such long, sh is—so it is assumed-eain steppe. the forward feet will be so nea taken' up before, tele hind feet proach there that .the toes- of `t hind feet will strike the tinder. si of the forward shoes rather: than co down on the upper side. Wi some horses this mode of shoe" will be found a satisfactory, reme for overreaching, while many . oth horses that raise their= hind feet ve a high will catch the forward: sho and pull them off as fast as t shoer (an set them. Indeed, tl writer once owned- a fleet travels that_ would often plant a Mild fo into the forward fetlock when h head was not checked up. The onl effectual way of preventing the shoe from being torn 'off her fore fe to check up her head, -so as' threw more of hoer weight o> th hind feet.. When she was beneat the saddle, and was not checked up and was travelling on smoot ground, the hind feet would clip clip, clip the forWard shoes at a most every step. Then, : where th way was somewhat soft, the sh or the feet were, sure to be caugh unless her head was checked u high. . ng the ne oes ng, rly ap- he de rine th ung dy er ry es he ie er of er y 8.' pet to e h li 1 e oes t Q Seeping Horses on Clover Hay If clover is cut when in blossom, is cured without being bleached and dried to death in the sun and rain, and is stored in such a condition. that it will not heat in the mow, or stack; the fodder will be of an ex- cellent. quality lot any sort of stock. - Touching this subject, a writer in', tb e Country Gentleman says : ' Rich- ard Montague, of Union. Springs, N. Y., who drives the fastest horse 'of the place, informs us chat he . gives it no grain, bu t feeds it exclusively on clover hay, which he regards as richer food than any other kind of fodder. His horse has had no other food for the past . two years. He takes care, however, to have his hay cured in the best manner, and net brown and dusty, as too frequently happens. The season for cutting is .when in blossom. He never allows the sun to shine on it more than shelf a day before putting it into cock ; one • whole clay of drying would be too much. He leaves it in cock at least a week, opening the heaps two or three times, only an I hour or two each time. Clover hay cured in this way, instead of being discolored and dusty, tomes ont in Win ter fresh and green, and match resembles •the condition of a box of raisins .when opened. The animals devour all, and to use his own words, eat all the scattered heaves, and lick --everything out of the manger, leaving it clean and glossy." Every- thing depends on curing the hay properly,' Consumptives in Minnesota. Some years ago the idea began Ito assume strength in the American mind that the climate of Minnesota was beneficial to consumptives, bn account, of its dryness. But in that State the cold of winter is very se- vere, being in the neighborhood of from ten to sixteen degrees, aridsometimes down to zero and below. f Notwithstanding this fact consump- a tives haYe flocked d to -that State, even the depth of winter, and flatter- :1 ed themselves with the belief that t the air, severe as it was, slid them p good.
