Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 34, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 November 1905 — Winter Care of Foals. [ARTICLE]

Winter Care of Foals.

Dams and foals should be fed oats or other together until the foals learn to eat well before they are weaned, otherwise they will lose much flesh and fret and worry much more. Care should be taken that none of the foals become troubled with worms or lice. Salt, sulphur or other remedies should be supplied promptly as required.. It also pays to look well to their feet and keep them from getting in bad shape. Good treatment and good feed are necessary to the production of good horses—not necessarily expensive feed, but wholesome, sweet and well prepared.—Farmers Advocate.
