Ventilation OF Stables.

How do you ventilate your stables
Has the farmer, who reads this, ever
given his thought to the subject If
not, why not? Once, when barns and
stables were neither clapboarded nor
differentiation the siding was put on
green, nailed to girts and allowed to
season, shrinking, leaving cracks
half or three-quarters an inch wide
between, there was no need agitating Of
the subject Of ventilation. Then the
farmer was smart who succeeded in
getting his stable floors cleared during
the winter; but now the other extreme
is reached, and there are many stables
in which water does not freeze from
November to May, if they are kept
close. Many of these stables are I'M
provided with any means of ventila-
ton, except, perhaps by windows,
which, if opened, admit cold currents
Of air directly upon the animals. Such
q mode of supplying air is far from
the best, though it is better thus to
supply them than they should breathe
over and over the vitiated air OF n
close stable which contains from q
score to three score head Of cattle. 1t
is no difficult matter to provide for the
supply of pure air, and for the escape
OF the impure. The pure should be
admitted above, yet near the floor.
This may be done by wooden tubes
passing through beneath the floor and
tothe open air We have seen some
stables which were supplied by such
tubes connecting with an adjoining
carriage-room or tool-room, which
was frequently open, thus securing air
OF a somewhat modified temperature.
But, as a rule, we prefer direct com
munication with out-of-doors. The
outlets for the escape of the impure air
should be near the ceiling, or through
tubes passing out of the roof. No
matter how, provide for its escape and
for its replacement by pure air. Do
not wait to build new barn in order
TO inaugurate system of ventilation.
Be human now and do humane thing
for your stock.
Why do VIC urge this? Not because
OF any pet theory of ours which we
wish to propagate. Have You ever
slept in a small, close room, without
any ingress or egress for air? And
did you feel we'll? howyou feel whe II
you awoke up? Did not your head
crack and the air taste bad? Didn't
you feel as il you had been standing
in the mouth of a machine threshine
smutty oats, all night? Didn't Won
feel better when you got out-of-doorsi
Oppressed, restless and feeling badly
did You ever rise and pull down tn,
upper sash of the window in YOU,
sleeping room and find relief? Die
you not go to sleep and wake refreshed
elastic, cheerful If SO, you know
why we ask you to yentilate you
stables--that we urge it because you
interest demands it, because you
cattle viii winter better, enjoy bette
health, their food will do them NOR
good, and it will do you more good t
feed it to them. We are prompted t
write this because ii was not lon
since we went into a fifteen hundre
dollar barn which the owner delighte
TO exhibit, and found no proyisio
whatever for Ventilation. We tol
