oar farmers TO have all stables, barns or sheds,
which are used for that purpose, put in good

ton to this subject knows that it is far easier to
keep stock during the winter if they are well
housed. They require less food and remain
during the worst Part Of the wear in COOL cnndi-
ton; while, i'eXpOsed to the inclemcncy Of the
weather they consume a very large amount Of
food, and at the same time lose flesh. The e.
ect on young an malS is greater uLd,r such COLI
ditionS than on the older and more robuet; and
exposure during the trst winter Of their lives
often, II not always, stunts their growth, and
lays the foundation ofdiScases which undermine
the constitution. No man would expose his

0LTMurray & Lanman's Florida Water from
its great celebrity in the South America and
West Indian markets, for which for twenty
years it was exclusively Manufactured, has been
extensively initiated in the United States.-
Now, however, the origin,l article has been in
troduced throughout the Union and as it brings
tho distinctive trademark of the propretors,
may be readily distinguished by its externals
from the simulated preparations. The internal
tokens of genuineness are sill more unmstake-
able, for MURRAY u Lanman's Florida Water''
has the odor oflresh tropical flowers and plants
from which it is prepared, and exposure to the
air increases the delicacy ofthe aroma, instead
producing sickening effiuuia as is the case
with toilet waters scented with strong essential
oils.
