Horses are now coming back so fast in the favor of farmers that every colt saved and reaned this year will mean real money ahead for the owner. That being the caae^ any system of management that will cut down losses of foals from close to 60 per cent to less tlhan 16 would seem to be highly valuable just now Such a system Is announced by B. W. Rodenwold, in charge of horse breeding at Oregon State college, and Dr. B. T. Simms, head of the veteri nary department there- They have ahnounced results of their studies in to the control of goiter in foals by feeding iodine during the last half of the pregnacy of the mare. For years the animal husbandry department at the college experienced severe losses in colts, just as are re ported by many breeders. Over one period of years out of 40 colts that were born only 18 were raised to maturity. About half died within a few days and the deaths were attrib uted to navel trouble, general weak ness and other difficulties. Careful examination convinced th ose in charge that many of the’e colts were suffering from thyroid trouble as the result of a weakenr ! condition due to faulty nutrition be fore birth. Experiments were conducted wi >h feeding potassium iodide in five grnin doses to the mares, but without efT» t Then the dose was increased to !' grains a week to each mare during the last half of the gestation period, and the result was immediate- Out of 19 foals born under such conditions, 16 were raised, and only one of the re mainder had any indication of goiter. Since then the practice of feeding iodine to mares has been continued at the college and practically all of the trouble with weak colts has disap peared. . The word was passed on to other experiment stations in ‘‘ gotter - ous areas" where subsequent work has confirmed results obtained in Oregon. The OSC specialists say there is undoubtedly a difference in the a- mount of iodine required in different parts of the state, as well of the United States, and breeders might well consult the experiment station before feeding iodine, as it might produce disasterous results if not fed with caution.
