one ounce ; -:i iiit;iLis imlii-a, one-halt
ounce: silcohnl. four ounces; water, one
pint. Tliis should be shaken well and
given as a ilrcm h. In wvere cases a
veterinarian should b sent for.
Barbed Wire Cuts.

first thini: lo do hi to t.oD the flow of
blood. A'ifohol. vinegar or alum vva
ter Is good for this purpose. A solu
tlou of chloride uf li'iiu is still better.
If the bleeding is from a large vessel,
compression will have to be applied
lowurd the heart if an artery Is cut or
away from it in the case of a vein.
Usually, however. Imi hed w ho cuts do
liot bleed seriously. They should be
cleaned thoroughly with warm water
to whk'li carbolic ucid lias been added
at the rate of 1 to 100. If the wound

washed (hilly with a solution of chlo
ride of zinc, one dram to one pint of
water, and a little powdered iodoform
sifted on It. This Iodoform aids heal

flesh" and keeps the Hies away. A
very bad cut should be dressed by a
veterlnarii.:. us proper treatment will
reduce the size of the resulting sear,

When horses are put to work in the
spring. gaIN are very likely to form on
their shoulders. This can be preveuted
by the use of collars and by accustom
ing the horses to work gradually. The
use of pads is seldom advisable, as
they become tilled with sweat and are
hard and Irritating. A hard leather
collar that hts snugly to ine horse's
neck Is the best thing to use. The
bnmes should tit the collar snugly.
Washing the shoulders in warm water
every night helps to keep them from
galling. Sugar of lead, twenty grains
to one ounce of water, or nitrate of
silver, ten grains to oDe ounce of wa
ter, is a good remedy. The following
salve is one of the best cures for galls
tfter tbey have once formed: Pulver
ised alum, four ounces; pulverized
bloodroot, four ounces; white lead,
four ounces; calomel, two ounces. Mis
with glycerin, sweet oil or lard to make
an ointment. ,

hooked or by pulling heavily on a ma
chine with a great deal of side draft.
A sweenied animal should be turned
out in the pasture until the shoulder Is
filled up again. Injecting ten drops of
turpentine under the skin at intervals
j not closer than one Inch will greatly
hasten the process.
" Tubereuloaig.
Tuberculosis affects cattle, sw ine and
man. It ha- been clearly proved that
tuberculosis can be transmitted to
swine through the milk of a fleeted
cows, and II Is very prnhnhle that It
can be irau -mitteil in human beings In
the siiiie- a
i'ubiri ili.s.s i an seldom be told by
the appearance of Hih animal. Uften
the best looking cows liilhe held will
De me -worst arrectea. Tuberculosis Is
easily transmitted from one cow In a
herd to another. The only safe way to
do Is to get the herd on n healthy basis
and keep It there. The tuberculin test
applied by a competent man Is a sure
menus of detecting the disease. The
diseased ri n I run Is should be sold to a
sonpmiikei' at once. If the disease
Is present u v lii certain local partB of
the body 'I lie rest may be all right fot
-Hse. After the herd Is once cleaned
up no animals should be brought ou
the place that have not beeo subjected
to the test, iu this way only can a
healthy herd be maintained.
Abortion.
Ahortiofi is of two kinds, accidental
and chronic. Accidental abortion may
occur in almost any class of animals
as a result of moldy feed, strains or
injuries of any kind. Coutnglous abor
tion Is seldom troublesome except Iu
the case of cows. All eases of abor
tion in cows, unless positively knowu
to be due to some other cause, should
be treated as contagious. If once in
troduced Into a herd this disease
spreads rapidly, ulmost destroying the
usefulness of the entire herd for breed
ing purposes.
As soon as a cow has aborted, the
calf, if II Is dead, should be burned,
together with the afterbirth. The
stall and the hind quarters of the cow
should be disinfected thoroughly. A
2 per cent solurloo of some coal tar
dip or a I'j per cent solution of car
bolic acid Is all right for this purpose.
The genital organs of the cow should
be syringed out with this solution
every three or four days as long as
there is any discbarge. Cows that
cava aborted should, be kept well
away frbtb the rest of the hero. Ttiey
should Dot be bred for at least ten
weeks after aborting or until all dis
cbarge has ceased. The reproductive
organs of the bull should be disinfect
ed both before and after service. The
bull Is one of the most frequent means
or transmitting fhe'"dlsease from one
cow to another. All litter In the stall
where the affected cow Is kept should
be burned as soon as cleaned out.
For Internal use the carbolic acid
treatment has given the best results.
One of the best ways to give this is
In salt at the rate of 2 parts to 100
parts of barrel salt. Pure carbolic
acid comes Iu crystals and will have
to be liquefied by placing the bottle In
hot water for a few moments. The
acid should be poured over the salt
and stirred in well. This makes au
excellent preventive. It should be
placed where the cows can get it at
all times, beginning at least Ave
months before calving with cows that
have previously aborted and three
months with' those that have not.
All new cows should be kept sepa
rate from the rest of the herd until it is
fprtaln that they are free .from Infec
tlon. II there Is ahy unusual dlscrilfrsre
they should be returned to the seller
or subjected to a strict course of pre
rentive treatment.
