Hoping that you can give this space in your valuable paper and thereby draw attention to this valuable work. I remain Yours very truly, A. T. Peters. Will Prevent Death From Moat. Scotts Bluffs Herald: F. E. Ever ett one of our leading farmers and stockmen thinks he has hit upon a contrivance which will effectually prevent death in the case of cattle ffected with alfalfa bloat. The thing is extremely simple, being nothing more than a slightly curved bit with an open hollow groove near each end on the upper side of the bit. These grooves permit the gas to escape from the mouth when the an imal is bloated. The bit is intended to be worn all the time and in no way prevents the animal from eating all it wishes. It will more than likely bloat but with the use of the bit it quickly escape and no harm will en sue. Mr. Everett has tried one of these bits on a calf he has had on an alfalfa pasture during the past sum mer, and, while the calf bloated, the bit permitted the ready escape of the gas and the animal has thrived bet ter than some of the rest. Mr. Ev erett has a great deal of confidence in the success of this appliance and has applied for a patent which no, doubt be granted. "Gut Hcil" the favorite cigar.
