Domestic Animals.

One of the first and most important du-
ties OF the present month is, daily care Of
domestic animals. =
We are really in winter quarters now,
and every animal must have its allowances
dealt out to il. They can no longer Obtain,
a supply ef food in the Geld send piercing
winds and pelting storms will use up dol
lars worte of fat and flesh in sustaining an
animal. have always found that it is
much moro economical and better in every
respect, to sustain animals in good stables
or sheds, with enough to eat than TO leave
them where they will be compelled to use
up any of the fat they have laid no, during
the summer, for want of proper supply of
food
Is every animal we'll fed and properly
protected? Are your stables all in order
or are the boards knocked off here and
there, 50 that the cold winds and storms can
beat upon the horses? Does every milk
COW have good supply of nutritious food,
not less than twice daily? Cows cannot be
expected to yield even tolerabIe supply
of milk unless they have good supply Of
succulent food Does every animal have a
comfortable place where they can lie during
the night, and enjoy quiet Illumination and
rest?
How is it with your calves? Do they
have all the hay they can eat during the
highland do they get little meal every
day-and have they "a comfortable shed or
stable? Do they fill themselves well-or
do their sides-as my little boy said-"look
as if some one had kicked them all in with
a big bOOt?"
Where are your sheep? Are they away
off in some distant field, trying to make a
meal by paving the snow off the grass p
Have your lambs been separated long ago
from the old Sheppard do they now have
the benefit good shelter, plenty of fod-
der and little grain every day2
Do you intend to keep those colts IN that
field all winter, with no protection but a
rail fence ? That is practice that econo-
m'cal farmers cannot afford to edop: in
raising domestic animals.
If every animal does not have good sup.
ply of food, and Il comfortable protection no
time should be lost in supplying these very
important items, without delay.
Is the barnyard in good condition for
the comfort Of your animals-or is there
nothing but fine manure, mud ard water
for them to stand or lie down in? Have
all the holes aud crevices been stopped
about the sheds=-or does the cold wind and
storms rush through them, aud render the
shed colder it would be away from such
shed
Let US have all these jobs attended to
without delay, if they, have not been per-
formed and keep the yard well Uttered
with straw
