THE WEANLING.
He 31nst Have Special Care if lie IB
to Hold Ilia Ovrn.
Uniformity in size mid type is much
to be desired among the horses bred oil
a farm , says Breeder's Gazette. Con
ditions cannot , however , always be con
trolled exactly , and many a time and
oft we find , despite our best efforts ,
that at the beginning of winter one or
two of the youngsters are- behind the
others of similar ages. When such is
the case , there is no time to be lost , for
the earlier such damage may be repair
ed the better it will be for all concern
ed. Perhaps the most particular atten
tion should be given to the weanlings.
If it so happens that one of them is
quite a good deal behind his compan
ions in the way of size and condition ,
though not so much so in age , he
should at once be made the subject of
a special appropriation. As it is , he is
mastered by the others and fares badly
at the watering trough or manger. He
must content himself with the poorest
of the hay or fodder , and , poor chap ,
he must put in a good many lively
skips each day to escape the teeth or
heels of his more doughty congeners.
All this should be put a stop to in-
stanter. Give the dwarf a place to feed
In by himself and give him the best
ration possible ; also plenty of it. Let
him have the choicest of the hay , a
small pick at a time and many times
a day. Ground oats with a little bran
and oil meal and some treacle and cut
hay will be found the best food for
hiuu It will be found much easier to
start him along now than at any time
later. The main point is to see that the
weanling gets nutritious food , enough
of it and the chance to eat it and di
gest it in peace and quiet.
A Little Sliort.
'Td like to know why it is , " said
young Ardupp to his tailor , "that every
time you make a pair of trousers for
me you get them a little short/ '
"I suppose , " replied the knight of the
featherless goose , "it's because 1 usual
ly find you that way when I present
my bill. "
Dcedw , Not Words.
Father ( sternly-Didn't ) I tell you if
any of the other boys said anything to
you should eount
make you angry
twenty before you said anything ?
Tommy-Yes , sir , but I didn't need to
say anything. Before I'd counted
twelve the other boy yelled "Enough ! "
