Worms. 
Can  you  give  me  a  remedy  for  stomach 
worms  in  horses?  ,T.  j.  f. 
New  York. 
Stomach  worms  do  not  infest  horses, 
hill  are  a  scourge  of  lambs.  The  larvn* 
of  the  horse  hot-fly  are  found  in  the 
stomach  of  every  horse  that  pastures 
grass,  and  such  "hols"  do  lit  lie  harm  and 
cailnot  safely  he  destroyed  hv  drugs,  but 
may  lie  driven  out  b.\  administration  of 
hisulphid  of  carbon  in  capsules.  Intes¬ 
tinal  worms  of  burses  are  common  and 
hurtful.  They  tend  lo  pass  out  of  the 
body  on  grass  in  Spring,  as  do  hots.  Mix¬ 
ing  in  Hie  feed  night  and  morning  a  table- 
spoonful  of  a  mixture  of  equal  parts  of 
salt,  sulphur  and  dried  sulphate  of  iron 
will  kill  them  ami  they  become  digested. 
The  medicine  should  he  continued  for  a 
week,  then  skip  10  days  and  repeat.  Omit 
iron  for  a  mare  in  foal  and  increase  salt 
and  sulphur.  A.  s.  A.
