circumstances under which cattle for different
purposes are placed, that there should be great
difference, not only in the quality but also in the
quantity OF foo !. Some are idle, while others
are at hard labor. Some give a bounteous sup
ply OF milk, or produce young, while others are

Give cattle good supply OF salt but let them
judge OF this, and not put much in their TODD, and
compel them to eat too much for the sake OF food.
This is the case when hay Is sailed literally.

cattle need more, let them have it by itself Give
them plenty Of pure water, and let them be so
situated when sheltered that they can have good
supply OF pure air; they need much, as their
lungs are capacous. Close air will injure the
quality oil the milk, as well as nure health.
In cold weather, keep cattle well sheltered,
