Swelling. 
I HAVE ii horse that has a swelling 
over the withers. He injured it about 
three months ago"; it was quite sore 
at the time. I applied liuament; the 
soreness disappeared and the swelling 
went down to a large extent, hut there 
is still some swelling, does not seem to he 
soft and at times is larger than others. 
Give me your advice as to what this is 
and what can be done for it. w. A. M. 
Massachusetts. 
Clip thi> hair from the swellings and 
blister with cantharidine ointment which 
may disperse the swelling or bring it to 
a head so that pus may be liberated. Such 
swellings usually end in abscess and fis¬ 
tula of the withers, requiring the atten¬ 
tion of an expert veterinan a. S. a. 
Tendinitis. 
YI7 ILL you give a remedy for soreness 
VV in the cords of the legs of an ojd 
horse? It is a soreness and stiff¬ 
ness that wears off after he travels a bit. 
He is beginning to be ankle-cocked in one 
of his forward legs. L. w. s. 
Connecticut. 
It is usual in such cas’s to line-lire and 
blister tbe tendons and then give six 
weeks or more of rest in a box stall. If 
you cannot have this done by a qualified 
veterinarian clip off the hair and blister 
the tendons two or three times, at in¬ 
tervals of three or four weeks, with a 
cantharidine ointment to be bought from 
the druggist or with a commercial blis¬ 
tering salve. A. s. A. 
Calf Dysentery. 
I HAVE lost three calves in succession 
now, with what appears to be bloody 
dysentery. My barn is in first-class 
shape, cows are fed on silage, hay and 
feed. Is it. possible that the fault lies 
in feeding silage? The calves are healthy 
and lively when born, but as soon as 
they suck the cow they do line as though 
they received a dose of poison. The last 
calf I tried feeding mixed milk from other 
cows, but it got the same thing. Can 
you suggest a cause and remedy? 
New York. J. s. K. 
This an infectious germ disease com¬ 
monly called “calf cholera” or dysentery. 
The infection is horn in the calf or con¬ 
tracted through the mouth or navel at 
birth. Clean up, disinfect and whitewash 
the stables. At birth saturate the stump 
of the navel with tincture of iodine and 
then dust with slaked lime twice a day 
until perfectly' dried. Immunize the calf 
by giving it a 10 cubic centimeter dose 
of polyvalent calf dyentery serum by 
means of a hypodermic syringe and if 
necessary repeat the dose. A cow in 
calf may be similarly treated six weeks 
before calving and TO days later with 
germ-free extract of dysenteria bacilli so 
that her calf will not i.cour. Any grad¬ 
uate veterinarian can apply this treat¬ 
ment. a. s. A. 
Loss of Ewes. 
1 AM having serious trouble with my 
flock of sheep; they are dying and I 
am ignorant of their requirements. 
The first sheep became sick about 10 
days ago; stopped eating, and stood 
around; seemed excited, held her bead to 
one side, and when forced to walk, would 
stagger off sideways and fall down. She 
lived three days. Another died, in about 
the same time. Now two are about ready 
to die, and two more are beginning to 
show symptoms of the disease. These 
ewes are all near lambing. They have 
been turned out on the pasture field every 
day it has not stormed all Summer and 
every day in the Winter, and been put up 
at night, in a shed tight on three sides. 
They have been fed the best cured corn 
fodder I have ever had. and a little oat 
hay, sometimes Alfalfa hay. They are as 
fat as they can he and they have not 
eaten what I have given them, rather 
picking over the fields. V. It. 
Maryland. 
The sheep are too fat. and you would 
find on post mortem examination disease 
of the liver. In future better feed whole 
oats and bran along with clover or Al¬ 
falfa bay. and allow also a succulent feed, 
such as two pounds of roots or silage a 
a day for each ewe to regulate the bowels 
and keep them active. Make tbe ewes 
take abundant exercise every day by 
walking to a distant field for their hay, 
which should he spread out over the field. 
Start this treatment now, although suffi¬ 
cient exercise may now come too late.

Tifaddeus Stevens, while in Congress, 
had an old colored cook. She was the 
only member of the household who did 
not stand in a\ye of him. One day she 
accidentally let fall a trayful of dishes. 
Stevens, hearing the crash of chin aware, 
lost his temper. “What’s all that you’re 
breaking in there?” he asked angrily, add¬ 
ing many words that ..shocked the aged 
“mammy.” Coming to the door she 
looked the statesman squarely in the eyes, 
and shot at him: “Whatever ’tis Ise n- 
breakin’, it ain’t the fo’th commendment.”
