PREPARING FOR WINTER

Cold weather will soon come in the
Northern States, and the farm ers
should be preparing for It as rapidly
as possible. We are all more or less
negligent, but there are many persons
who are always behind hand with their
work. Consequently each change in
the season comes long before they are
prepared for it, and winter finds Them
without q proper amount OF feed for
their stock or themselves. 500
The barn doors will not shut, and
there are great holes in the cattle shed;
the hog pen is out of repair, and every
thing seems TO be going wrong. OF
course there are some good promises
made to be fulfilled in the spring, but
when warm weather comes again, the
need of good warm shells and tight
roofs 10 not felt as keenly as during the
snow and rain storms of January and
February. Let every farmer begin to
airy, and act as we'll and commences re-
pairs Immediately. There are very
few buildings that do not require lit
tie looking over every fall, and few
extra nails and boards applied.
Besides making repairs on buildings,
1t is we'll TO see that they are well filled
with suitable food for the stock. Hay,
corn and oats are not enough, because
cattle like variety OF food as we'll as
man, and tuEnips, carols, potatoes,
bests, and similar vegetables will not
only be relIshed by stock in winter,
but Will do much toward Keeping them
in good health.
