THAT CRIBBING HORSE. 
Keep His Teeth Away. 
To prevent cribbing in horses, the fol¬ 
lowing metbod is cheap, harmless and 
certainly effectual in some cases: On 
every spot where the horse cribs, tack 
on fresh sheep skins—they are cheap— 
with the wool up, -and sprinkle on any¬ 
thing offensive, as aloes, pepper, etc. 
This will cure, or mitigate the evil.

A Strap On the Throat. 
To prevent cribbing take a strap an 
inch wide and a buckle at one end, and 
buckle it closely around the throat. It 
does Dot need to be tight enough to dis¬ 
tress the animal, usually, except in ex¬ 
treme cases. After a few weeks’ use, 
the strap may be comparatively loose, its 
presence serving as a monitor. This 
device is especia'ly to be commended for 
use on a horse accustomed to crib when 
tied to hitching posts. It is unobtrusive, 
requiring but a moment to put on or off 
when stopping or starting. Of course, it 
must always be removed when driving 
or using the horse for any purpose.

Give Him No Chance. 
SPRAYING POULTRY WITH KEROSENE 
EMULSION. 
Some weeks ago The R. N.-Y. wanted 
to know about spraying kerosene emul¬ 
sion on poultry for lice. This is my way: 
My yards contain 8 to 15 fowls each. I 
take poultry netting six feet wide by 15 
feet long, and attach one end to the fence 
near the corner of the yard. I then 
throw a handful of grain in the corner, 
and when the chickens go there to eat 
the grain, I draw the other end of the 
netting around them and attach it to the 
fence running at right angles to the first 
fence. I then use an emulsion consisting 
of one part oil and 20 parts water, and 
spray them thoroughly. I have a bucket 
of clean, warm, soft water ready, and in 
a few minutes after applying the emul¬ 
sion, spray them again thoroughly with 
that. I then let them out of the pen and 
give a full feed of grain and tincture of 
aconite in their drinking water. I go 
over my yards three or four times a sea¬ 
son, lice or no lice. The soap in the 
emulsion, and the rinsing afterwards, 
clean them up and kill all vermin ; the 
aconite prevents them taking cold. 1 
always perform this operation on a still, 
warm, bright morning, and the sun soon 
dries them off. I have never had a case 
of sickness from this treatment. 
* Washington, Pa. w. J. w. 
Make the horse manger not more than 
1>^ foot high, and keep a piece of rock 
salt in the feed box. Cover the neck 
yoke with heavy sheet iron and tie the 
horse so he cannot crib on the other 
horse. These precautions will go a great 
ways toward preventing the horse from 
cribbing. I have had a horse for three 
years that would crib on anything within 
reach. He would even try it on my 
shoulder while harnessing him. 
APBIAN CAAUWE. 
Take a Strap to Him. 
Whenever hitched where cribbing could 
be indulged, I put a strap around the 
neck just back of the jaws and buckled 
just tight enough so that when he cribs 
and the muscles expand, the strap will 
close the windpipe, and thus prevent 
sucking air into the stomach, which 
always causes bloating. This is a good 
preventive and in no way cruel to the 
horse. He can eat and drink with per¬ 
fect ease, and after a short time will not 
attempt to crib when the strap is around 
the neck. e. e. s.

pride in using "the
