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 single pane
Of glass about the whole building. While
doing the schores" the doors must be left
open to let in the light, and during cold
driving snow storms the barn gets venti-
lated great deal more than is necessary.
It would make a wonderful change in the
inside appearance of thousands of old barns
to just put in a 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 viii find it necessary
to use the broom. The eobwebs and dust
didn't show before and if you viii now
spread good coat Of whitewash over all
the inside walls of the cattle rooms, you
win 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 affording 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 will be just as well
as far as light is coneerued. 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 50 the feeding and other
work on the barn floor can be done with
out opening the doors to the storm with

RELIEVING CHoKED CATTLE-0n an
a nimal becoming choked with any hard
substance that cannot pass the gnllet, harsh
measures should never be used until all
others have failed. The practice of plac-
inS 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 eficacious, 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,
sickens tie 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,
yulcanized rubber, ect., with sponge or
soft substance affixed to the end. Intro
duce the soft end into the throat, holding
the animals head up, aud the obstruction
being reached, press it firmly down at any
risk, for it is now case of life or death.
To relieve the inflammation, apply a 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 corals to
the horns Keep the animal on light soft
food, assisted with linseed ten, until
the imaa mmation is subdued.-- Western

With Moonshinc Fastening after;
And here among The woodland damps
She lights her pretty freely lamps,
And stills the wild wind laughter.

Liz all their leaves to greet her.
With dewy kiss she doth requite

A NEw FERTILIzER. Indian Meal is
said to be equal to Peruvian Guano as a
fertilizer. Like the latter, it will kill the
germ of the seeds ii applied in too large
quantities II may be used in the hill,

quantities as guano. At 60 cents per
bushel for corn a ton Of it costs $1,000, or
about one-third as much as guano 1t
acts quickly upon the growing crops and
may be applied to wheat in the Spring at
the time Of sowing clover, and raked in

From all that we have heard ofthis arti-

win experiment with it the coming season
and report the result. Wheat brand also

Growing Clover Close.

1t is sometimes objected to clover thai
it is too coarse as feed-this being the case
where it is grown on strong ground, max
ing large stalk. This can be remedied
by sowing thick, and thus getting fine
stemmed crop, also shorter in length, the
stalks varying from fifteen to twenty five
inches, according to quality of the land,
the season, and whether plaster has been
used, but the point is to SOW thick
from ten to twelve quarts per acre-eyenly
scattered on mellow soil and brushed in
if sown with spring grain. This forms a
close growth, and must be cut before it
lodges much, and this is generally about
the time of towering. Else iflodged bad.
ly, and permitted to remain for some time,
it will partially rot and lose some Of its
quality as feed. But harvesting in time
and well cured, there will be no deteriora-
ton of the high value which this plant has
obtained among our best dairymen. Three
tons per acre may be thus realized and
if the seasons agood one, the amount may
be doubled by two cuttings and clover
should always be cut twice, each time at
the blossoming period. We prefer the
medium size of June clover, as it is earlier
and thinner stemmed than the large kind,
and less apt to lodge, and always permits
of two cuttings. On poor land clover may
be grown successfully, improving the land.
But it may be raised on the richest of land
with the most gratifying results; only get
it close SO as to have it fine stemmed, and
cut in time.-0aio Farmer.
