I have 16 mini horses and seem to have one or two colic most years. When they start to colic they lay down and roll and don't get up quickly as they do when they normally roll. They also repeat this action with a longer time getting up until they don't get back up without coaxing with a lead. When this happens I load them at both ends with mineral oil. Because of my disability I gas up the lawn mower and keep them walking until they pass the plug. I have hot had one this year but had two last year and was using my electric wheel chair and when he passed the first apple it sounded like a stone when it hit the cement drive. When I stopped he wanted to lay down so we kept going. The next apple was not as hard and after a little longer the mineral started to show. A horse will lay down with pain, give up and die.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
