Important Consideration in Pro
ducing Horses Profitably.
Good Horseman Endeavors to Reduce
Worrying and Fretting of Young
Animal to Minimum—Grain
Must Be Supplied.
(By H. H. MCARTY, Indiana Experi
ment Station.)
To keep the cold growing without
interruption during weaning time and
afterward is a most important consid
eration in producing horses profitably.
A good horseman aims to replace the
milk that the colt has been accustomed
to secure from its mother. He tries
also to reduce the worrying and fret
ting of the colt to a minimum. To
wean a colt appears to be a simple
matter. It is simple as many do it;
yet the very low degree of success
that is shown on many farms by their
anthrifty colts is evidence that there
is something wrong or that there is
something lacking. Often in a few
weeks during weaning time the young
ster changes from the growing, sleek,
milk-fat colt to a stiff-haired and un
thrifty, stunted individual. The colt,
if properly cared for, need lose but
little of his flesh, bloom and spirit.
Feed Some Grain.
Grain must be used as the milk Is
taken away. It is necessary that the
colt have been taught to eat grain be
fore weaning is attempted. Oats have
always been preferred by horsemen
for young colts. They are undoubted
ly superior to any other single grain.
The colt likes a mixture or a variety
of grains and will thrive best on such
a ration. He relishes corn, and it may
well be fed as part of the grain ra
tion. It may be said that corn con
tains a rather high percentage of fat.
True, it does, and so does milk, which
is as nearly ideal food as nature can
make. Corn should not be fed alone,
nor In too great quantities. Bran Is a
splendid feed and contains material
for bone and muscle. A mixture of
oats 60 per cent, corn 30 per cent,
and bran 10 per cent makes a ration
that will enable any colt to grow rap
idly. A handful of oilmeal may be
profitably added. Then he will be
more likely to eat enough to almost
make up for the lack of milk.
Provide Hay.
Hay should be provided In plenty.
Doubtless alfalfa or clover is the most
desirable for young growing colts.
Both grain and hay should be of the
very best quality. If it Is at all pos
sible to furnish succulent grass for
the colt it should be done. This is a
big factor in preventing any check ir
the growth of the youngster.

RIGHT ROUGHAGE FOR SHEEP
Alfalfa or Clover Hay Contains Large
Amounts of Protein Which Balance
Carbonaceous Grains.
Sheep are ruminant animals and in
the main will use the same kind of
roughages that are eaten by cattle.
Either alfalfa or clover hay makes
the very best roughage for sheep, since
they are both palatable to them and
contain a relatively large amount of
protein which balances the more car
bonaceous grains commonly fed.
Sugar cane or sorghum aud millet are
both distinctly carbonaceous rough
ages, and if used for sheep feeding,
either breeding flocks or In fattening
sheep for market, must be supplement
ed with some concentrate rich In pro
tein such as linseed oil or cottonseed
meal. •
Ordinarily either of these concen
tra es need not compose to exceed 10
per cent of the total grain ration. The
millet Is not so much in favor with
sheep feeders, because of the fact
that unless It is cut at exactly the
right time it is liable to produce
scours. A good quality of millet, how
ever, cut early, will form a fit rough
age for sheep if properly supplement
ed with either some additional rough-
age rich in protein, like alfalfa or
clover, or grain rations with a protein
supplement.
POISON GOPHERS AND MOLES
Best Time for Work Is in Spring and
Early Summer—Use Strychnine
With Utmost Care.
Spring and early summer is the best
time to get rid of gophers and moles.
For early spring poisoned corn is good
bait. Place some of It out early in
April, some more about May and a
third lot a little later. Poisoned corn
may be prepared by soaking for 21
hours In a solution made by dissolving
strychnine in water at the rate of
about one-tenth ounce to the quart.
Where the pests are unusually bad
at planting time, seed corn can be
treated In this way without injuring
Its germinating qualities. Of course
the planter will have to be regulated
to drop this soaked corn.
Strychnine is deadly poison. It
should be handled with extreme care
and both the solution and the soaked
corn kept out of the way of children
and animala.

It Works! Try It
Tells how to looaen a sore,
tender corn so It lifts
out without psin.
No humbug! Any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without
a particle of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
a compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
a trifle, but is sufficient to rid one’s
feet of every corn or callous.
Put a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callous. In
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callous will loosen
and can be lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn’t eat out
the corns or callouses but shrivels
them without even irritating the sur
rounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying It or
afterwards. If your druggist don’t
have freezone have him order it for
you.
