Sick Animals

1t is OF vastly more importance TO keep
animals in health than to cure them when
sick AS a general rule animals may be-
kept in good health by the observance Of a
few simple rules.
l. Animals; soould always he fed with
regularity, both in respect to time and quail
i,y Over feeding is often the cause Of dis.
ease.
9. They should always have water as
oltec as required, and that which is pure
Horses will not l,ink Of hard, lime or
clayey, if they can have access to pure
water.
g. Do not overwork horses and cxea.
Regular and moderate labor. will accom-
plsh more in the year. and keep them in
better condition, than onerwosking at o,.c
time and resting aud overlooking at anoth
Ter.
T. A sufficient variery should Je fed to
stock in winter, and not corfine them to
|dry hay rr straw and grain. A mess o
carrots, turnips or potatoes cut and mixed
with g,ound oats or shorts is excellent TO
promote health, and should be given as o.
ten as twice o week.
5, Never feed mu>ty and moulIy fodder
but il it mus, he used, cuu it, moisten
and sprinkle over with meal, and feed to
horscd cattle. It should never bc given to
horses.
6. Always shelter cattle in cold storms
in all seasons Of the year, and never leave
a horse, alter bsins driven, to stand in the
cold wind without b:in; covered with a
good thick blanket, or buif.o.
{. Avoid al: sudden changes Of food in
grain, or from hay TO grass.
s, Due care should be taken that ami
mails always have plenty Of pure, fresh ai.
and for this purpose stables should be well
ventilated. as stock of:en become sick from
breathing foul air. A proper amr1at Of ex
erc:3e is also essential
| 8. Strict cleanliness should always be
observed. All animals are found to main
lain better condition a:.d l.tten when cur
ried, and kept clean.
! When an animal becomes sick, cne Of th.
best measures to be adopted, is good nurs
ing. This is method beginning to be cd
vocated by the best practitioners OF tn.
medical art, As being applicable to the hu
mace family, ard is unquestionably as ad
vantageous when applied to farm stock
There is no doubt that the life of valuable
animals is often lost by doctorina, whiI
many recover when left TO themselves ant

Mutton and Wool Growing.

The consumption Of mutton in North
America has :apidly increased. The supply
now as rarely exceeds the demand as with
any other meat and the best qualities out
sell beef in the principal markets. No
country is better adapted by natural, and
on the whole by artificial condition to the
production n Of wool, than the United States.
Australia and South America contain the
only very extensive regions on tho earth
now capable Of competing with equal areas
Of North America in the production o. the
great staple, The price Of land in Austria.
ia is much higher than in the United states
its distance from the wool market of Eu-
rope equals nearly h1f the circumference Of
the globe yet its cx ports OF wool rose, be
tween 1910 and 9lG3, from 167 pounds t.
68, COZ, 900 pounds! South America i,
'so becoming an extensive producer 0
| this staple, there were imported into GIca
Britain alone, in 1861 100000 pound
Yet South America has no natural condltio'
over North America for sheep flaming, when
here are political and moral ones which
uudeniab'y arc hostile to tho security ant
permanence of so exposed branch Of indus
try. Apart from the mere question Of th
cheap production Of wool, tie experience 0
lie most advarced agricultural nations lik
England Germany and France, goes to SHOW
that sheep are necessity Of good genera
system Of husbandry, on even the highes
priced lands and amidst the densest pop

10 proportion to their own consu1tion, 4,
any osher domestic animals. They ar
believed to return more fetilizing matte
