uncommon occurrence then for farmers
to let their cattle run all winter with no
other protection than board fence or
an open shed at the side of the yard,
and when they did so, it cost, according
to size, 2 TO y tons of hay to winter a
COW, averaging for 26 weeks ~ to 30
pounds OF hay per day. When they
built barns and sided them up with
green lumber, so that when the boards
shrunk the cracks between them were
half an inch or more wide, and the sta
bleswere so arranged that the wind which
whistled through these cracks swept all
the heat radiating from the bodies of
the sanctioned COWS up into the loft
and out at the cracks above,
the case was not much improved
Some saving in waste was effected, and
that was about all. But when these
open barns were succeeded by tight
ones, boarded with matched stuff we'll
seasoned, and the stables so arranged
as to utilize the heat radiating from the
cows bodies, there was a great diminu-
milton in the cost of keeping. A saving
of one-third of the keep formerly used
was effected. Eighteen to twenty
pounds of hay day kept the cows in
better condition in the comfortable
stables than ~ to 30 could do in the
old ones, or in the open yard When
tight barns for cows first began to be
built in central New York, dairymen
Unexpectedly surprised Mt the saving it
effected in fodder, / have, time and
again, heard them declare from estimat-
ing, what l found it to be true byacUual
weighing, that tight and warm stable
saved fully one-third of the fodder
formerly used in the open ones for a
long time so generally in use. l would
suggest, if they have not already done
it, that the dairymen and stock keepers
who have suffered from drouth can not
in any other way cheaper the cost of
wintering their stock SO much as by
providing for them the most comfort
able quarters they possibly can"
But there is one consideration which
should not he overlooked in arranging
for tight barn, and that is proper ven
tllation. The owner of tight barn,
unless he makes proper arrangement
of this kind, will soon have what is fifty
described as foul, reeking stable. "
Cold air is not necessarily good air, nor
is warm air necessarily bad air, al
though the chances are that air made
warm by animal radiation of heat will
become vitiated. The safeguard is eff
fectiye aud properly arranged ventila-
ton. This ventilation is essential for
the comfort which Professor Arnold so
wisely advocates, and every man who
takes measures to profit by the above
suggestions this winter should study
his plans carefully to gain good air
without having chilling current strike
his sanctioned animals.

GALLANT SOLDIERS.

In sub-report Of his recent fight
with the Indians, just received at Mill
tary Headquarters, Gen. Miles says:
deem it but duty to brave men and faith
ful soldiers TO bring to the notice Of the high
est military authority an instance Of indom-
table courage, skill. and true her0ism on the
part of detachment from this command with
the request that the actors be rewarded, and
their faithiulues and bravery recognized
On the night Of the 10th inst. a party con-
sisting Of Sergt. II. l.. Woodruff, company

as bearers of dispatches from the camp of this
command on Mcclellan Creek, Texas to Camp
Supply, |. /. At 6 a. m. on the 18th, when
approaching the Washita river, they were met
and surrounded by a band of one hundred and
twenty-five Indians Kiowas and COmanches,
who had recently left their agency, and at the
first attack all were struck Private Smith

From early morning until dark, Outnumber-

lccted in pool mingled with their own blood.
There ii no doubt but that they killed more
than double their number besides those that
were wounded. The Indians abandoned the
attack on the 18th.
The exposure and distance from the COM
mand which We're necessary incidents of their
duty. were such that for th,rty-six hours from
their first attack, their condition could not be
known, and not tan midnight Of the 18th
could they receive medical attendance or food

COTTON

The cotton crop is indicated by the
following state averages deducted from
the October returns of the Department
of Agriculture: The crop of Virginia
is too small TO influence perceptibly the
general result. North Carolina 50 per
cent, decline of 2 per cent, during
September; South Carolina 50, a de
cline of 4 per cent Georgia 50, an i'm
provement of 3 per cent; Florida 81 &,
an improvement of per cent. Alabama
70, decline af per cent Mississippi
"a, no change; Louisiana 81, no change:
Texas 10, an increase of per cent. Ar
kansas 50, an increase of ; per cent. /;
Tennessee 81, an increase of per cent.
The above averages refer only to the
condition Of the crop on the first day of
October including the state of develop.
ment, vitality and healthfulness. This
IS but one element in the calculation of
the yield in quantity, which has not yet
been completed.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Keeping Apples for Winter Use,

Winter fruit is usually kept in cellars
with other vegetables. The usual dis
advantages of this plan are that they are
/ too warm and too damp, and the air is
too much laden with vapors from other
stores If kept in the cellar under the
Westinghouse it should be entirely
separated from other cellars, and be
kept Mt lower temperature than pota-
toes and squashes, and the vegetables
usually slowed in the cellar A better
plan is TO have a cellar under a grain
barn, and devoted to the use of fruit
only. This should be kept open during
the day as much as possible, without
danger of freezing the fruit. 1t should
be well ventilated by hues into chin
neys, or going up to the roof, according
to location.
Care must be taken, however, to keep
the fruit, as nearly as possible, at the
same temperature. One or more Their
mometers should be fixed to the walls,
and if it become evident that the air
admitted in the middle of the day raises
the temperature, the cellar should be
closed until this effect is no longer pro
duced.
When placed in the barrels, the APP
pies should be carefully assorted,
whether for home use or the market.
Table apples, cooking apples, and
apples to be fed ont, should each be
placed by themselves, and disposed of
accordingly. The best apples should be
firmly headed up, and labeled with tho
name and quality of the fruit, and the
IL q al a
sirable memoranda. BY the way, if
people used such memoranda more
than they do, it would often be source
of pleasure and of profit.
Apples require some Watching, so
that each sort may be used only while
in its prime. This must he determined,
not only 10y the VARIETY but by the
season. If il has beCm a warm summer
or fall, or if apples generally have
I ripened early, they will not keep 50
