Living calf triplets are just about as rare as human triplets. These husky indi- 

 viduals were born at the Kaplan Stables, Great Barrington, Mass. On page 13 

 of the January 4th issue, we printed a picture of Guernsey triplets horn at 

 Aroilla Farms, Ipswich, Mass. It seems to be a Massachusetts trait. 







Cow Has Skin Trouble 



What can I do to cure the itch on 



my cow on her neck and on the back 

 near the tail? f. o. 



New York. 



There are a number of skin parasites 

 which might cause the condition referred 

 to. It seems probable, however, that the 

 cow is infested with a form of ringworm. 

 If this is the case the following treatment 

 will be of benefit : First wash all over and 

 around the parts with warm water and 

 soap, scrub well. Rinse and dry. Paint 

 over the areas with tincture of iodine.
