Light Barns.

Most barns, writes correspondent, are
too dark, for the health Of the animals or
convenience Of attendants Many could
be pointed out that have not a single pane
Of glass about the whole building. While
doing the 'ehores' the doors must be left
open to let in the light, and during cold
driving snow storms the barn gets yenti-
lated great deal more than is necessary
1t would make wonderful change in the
inside appearance Of thousands of old barns
to just put in few sashes on the south
side and let in the warm sunshine We
do not believe that cattle can long be
perfectly healthy when constantly tied in
dark stables. The sunlight was made to
live in, and the more Of it we can get
inside Of our buildings the better will it
be for ourselves and animals. After let
ting in the light you will find it necessary
to use the broom The cobwebs and dust
didn't show before, and if you will nov
spread good coat Of whitewash over all
the inside walls of the cattle rooms, you
will find the light viii seem to stay after
it once gets in. A light barn promotes
habits of neatness, while dark one tends
to carelessness and slovenly ways, For
the sake of aifording ventilation in warm
weather, it would be better to have the
windows put in SO they could slide, but il
they are put in solid it win be just as well
as far as light is concerned. A cheap way
of setting sash in the wall of single
boarding, is to cut out hole about one
inch smaller than the sash on all sides
except the bottom. Use an inch board
four inches wide for stool on which the
sash will rest on the inside Of the boarding.
Then screw the sash tight to the boards all
round A strip nailed on the stool at the
bottom of the window, makes all tight
We also like to see good sized sashes set in
the barn doors SO the feeding aud other
work on the barn floor can be done with
out opening the doors to the storm with

RELIEVING CHoKED CATTLE-0n an
nimal becoming choked with any hard
substance that cannot pass the gullet, harsh
measures should never be used until all
others have failed. The practice of plac-
ing block against one side Of the throat
and endeayoring to break the obstruction
with mallet, as is sometimes practised, is
simply brutal. One of the simplest, and
at the same time most effcaeious, remedies
is to give half pint Of lard oil or melted
lard, By drawing out the animals tongue
raising the head, and administering from
thick bottle. This lubricates the gullet.
siekens the stomach, relaxes the muscles
Of the throat, and in coughing the lodged
substance will generally pass either up or
down. If the choking has existed so
long that inflammation of the throat has
ensued, resort must be had to the probing
ANY flexible rod, either whalebone,
vulcanized rubber, eet., with a sponge or
soft substance affixed to the end. Intro
duce the soft end into the throat, holding
the animals head up, and the obstruction
being reached, press it firmly down at any
risk, for it is now a case of life or death.
To relieve the inflammation, apply slip
pery-clm poulticc, keeping it in close con-
tact with the throat by securing the folds
in which it is placed by means of eoraIs to
the horns. Keep the animal on light soft
food, assisted with linsced ten, until
the imfa mmation IS subducd - Hiestern
