COLFS INJURED BY DRIVERS Dr. McCampell of Kansas Stats Cot- !•«• Tslls Haw Young Animat Should Be Treated. Colts are sometimes injured by Inexperienced drivers or men who. try to do too much when starting jo work them. They seem to think that because the colt U large be can do as much as the mature horse. "Give the colt light work," advises C. W. McCampell. associate professoc of animal husbandry in the Kansas State Agricultural coll eg'. -The colt should be prepared for the season's work If he Is to do his best. Liberal grain feeding should begin a few weeks before u»e work starts. A three-yenr-old colt handled In this manner after a few weeks' preparatory work will be able to do considerable work but of course he should be given * dav of .est occasionally. “Caution should be taken not to overwork the colt at first There is danger of swoeney. broken wind, or other serion* trouble which probably would put the horse out of business for on

entire season."
