Hot Wealher Rules for Work
Horses
Load lightly and drive slowly.
2 Stop in the shade if pos
sible. , . 1 , .
B. .; Water your horse: as of
ten as r possibles So long as a
hors is working, water in small
quantities) will not - hurt . him.
But let him drink only a few
swallows ifvhe is going to stand
still. Do not fail, to water him
at night after he has eaten hay.
; 4. VVhen he comes in after
work, sponge off the" harness
marks and sweat, his eyes, his
nose and mouth, and the dock.
Wash his feet but not his legs.
5. j Do not use v a horse-hat,
unless it is a canonv-ton hat
The ordinary bell-shaned hat
does more harm than, good.
6. A sponge on top of the
head, or even a cloth, is good if
kept wet. If dry it is worse
than nothing, ; , . ,
7. If the horse is , overcome
by heat get him, into the shade,
remove harness and bridle, wash
out his ' mouth,; sponge him all
over, shower his legs, and give
him two ounces f aromatic
spirits of ammonia, or two
ounces of sweet spirits of nitre,
in a pint of water; or give him
a pint of coffee warm. Cool
his head at once, using cold wa
ter, or, if necessary, chopped
ice, wrapped in a cloth.
8. Watch your horse. If he
stops sweating- suddenly; or if
he breathes short and quick, or
if his ears droop' or if he stands
with his legs braced sideways,
he is in danger of a heat or sun
stroke and needs attention at
once.
9. If it so hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night,
tie him outside, with bedding
under him. Unless he cools off
during the night, he cannot well
stand the next day's heat.- L.

How Ve Marketed Our Bef-
nes
fc Like most farm . people, we
had to feel a real need and then
search aimlessly around, as none
of our neighbors could tell of a
place to get baskets and crates.
But Sister and I are used to find
ing out new things and clinging
to d riiculties until we solve
them satisfactorily, and we solv
ed the problem of containers for
our berries by getting: three
shipping crates and ninety-six
quart baskets. They cost ; $1.65,
and we paid 37 cents express.
Now we pick in the baskets and
place in-crates, and; when - filled
fasten the lid. - .They can be
placed one on the other and
handled with ease. We like
them because they are light,
too, and the berries are as fresh
looking when we deliver them
each morning as when we .pick
ed them the evening before.
We let the crates stay in the
bed during the night " so as : to
cool the berries. The plan we
used in getting customers was
simple, as we had ho competi
tion until the bulk of the crop
was sold We sold from house
to house. It is a lark to us, al
though we are learning business
principles, how honesty in mar
keting pays in keeping custom
ers. In each " thing that we ve
marketed, we have found that
to get good prices we have to
have something that is wanted
and be ahead pf the others.

fruit trees :have perfectly good
fruit to market, when just a lit-;
