Why Not Publish "Care of Horses" In Town Papers? We should be very glad to see the editors of newspapers in large and small towns devote more space to ar- ll<:les on the care Of animals, particu- larly horses. These papers are read locally, from cover to cover, and a large number of the readers are farmers and other people who own horses. Much ot the suffering endured by man's most faithful slave is caused by mere Ignorance on the part of the owner or driver as to what constitutes sufltering Iu a horse. Some day (when the nilllenlum U just around the cor- ner, says someone) all drivers will have to pass an e.xamination in horse- manship before receiving the license that will be just as necessary as a motor driver's license Is now. The horse-driven vehicle U not, of course, the menace to pedestrians that the motor car has become, but the horse, which is a living, sentient, sen- sitive creature, has a right to a square deal also, and It Is one ot the most selfish and callous sins ot civilization that this helpless creature can be sold to a person who does not know its bock from its withers; who knows only tho most elementary rules ot driving, harnessing, feeding, etc.; does not know when the horse is sick, or hungry, or thirsty, or hot. or cold; has only one idea in bis head^to make it go. And when it can go no more, they scrap It with as little emotion as they wonld bestow upon a worn-out motor car. There is a great deal in the papers that, with benefit to the readers, might give place to Instructions on the proper care of flie animals upon which so much of the economic life of the country depends. Soma editors reaize this and give space frequently to mat- ters humane. We are publishing on this page an editorial from the "Port .Arthur News t'hronlcle." on horses. We should be glad to see the rules on general care of horses that appears ill the "Pleader," given space In news- papers throughout the country. Hu- mane societies could do much toward helping the cause by reuesting their local papers to publish these articles. The editorial reads as follows: If dogs are an essential factor in the life lifo ot the North, the horse is no less an important factor in the work upon which the North has for many years tlepended for its existence, and which will continue for years to he the principal source from which revenue Is derived. Timbering opera- tions cannot well be carried on with- out the aid of the horse. Tractors are all very well in their place. They can replace the horse to some extent and will Increase in numbers as operations continue, but the time is far distant when the horse will not be employed In timber operations. t)na would think that the owners ot horses would take the utmost care ot them, ami some do. But there are those who do not ap- pear to have regard for either the animals or the service tliey have ren- dered. At the end of the season htin- dreds of horses are either brought to the city and shipped to oiitsid* points or are turned out to pick Uielr living until they are again required, !in the fall. It Is at this time particu- I larlv that the horses reflect the treat- 'metlt they have received during the 'winter season. It is Inevitable that 'accidents will happen to horses as I well as to men in the hazards ot bu.sli I work. Men are brought to the hos- â-  pitals and cared for. From the begin- ' nlng ot the bush season until its close, I men are constantly being brought to ! hospital and given the care they need I to recover from the effects of mishaps 'and accidents. Horses meet with ac- 'cidents and are given treatment by 'some, but others fail to realize th« ' duty that should be theirs to fare for ' wo'iniied and unfit animals. I It is not going out ot the way to say ' that cruelty to horses should be severely punished. Stories which are I related to the 'â- News-Chronicle' iudi- 'cate that some men are utterly heart-. 'less la tliei'r treatment of the animals I which enable them to earn a living. ' They are perfectly willing to take â-  from the horses the last ounce of ser- vice and requite the poor beasts with ' seeming studied Indifference, if not ' downright cruelty. j it is not a pleasant task for mem- bers of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to .\nimal3 to lay charges ' against offenders or to appear in court 'agaiust them, but the task Is appar- 'ently nece.ssary. Those against whom charges are laid or action taken fre- Iquently manifest ill will against the I Society and its agents and officers. Possibly the same may he said of of- ! fenders against other laws in regard ! to the policemen who apprehend them. j Neverthele.ss. the policeman is a nec- essary adjunct of community life and the S.P.C.A. is just as necessary 11 j justice is to be done to the helpless 1 horse, who asks only for food, shelter and decent treatment as wages for I service rendered.â€" "Humane Pleader." I A man who truly loves beauty, hates to think tiiat he enjoys It at the ex- I pense of starved and stunted human being or siiiTcring animals.â€" John Galsworthy. Washing Curtains Dirty curtains should be steeped overnight in salt and water â€" a good handful of salt to a gallon of water â€" before dipping them Into soapsuds tor the first time. By doing this you set the colour, be- sides drawing out the dirt. In tha moruing rinse them once or twice, then wash with pure soapllakes. When they are quite clean, rinse them again until the water is clear. Curtains made of net are often to clined to shrink and It is a good idea to run a weighted rod through the bot- tom and hang them while still damp. [ Use More Starch Ilandkerdiiefs, pillow cases, towels and so on will keep clean much longer ! if some thin starch water Is added to the final rinsing water. They will also he easier to wash next time, as thtj dirt slips out with I far greater ease. MUTT AND JEFFâ€" â€"By Bud Fisher. Isn't That Using the Old Bean? We Ask You,
