Warm Stables.

Therea are several things to talirin,o
consideration in providing slaLlng
and stalls for stock. Close and lily
ventilated quarters are the fruitful
sources OF lung diseases, colds, lcv,rs,
and curaneons complaints, with
h"r>es, cattle, or sheep. Fresh, pure
air is Il prime necessity b sides.
many horses suffer III health aud feel
i"gs by being stabbed at home in
very warm quarters, and then taken
out in the very cold winds, or the
next nj yht when from home are com
PEELED t" freeze III poor shelter, or ut
least much colder than they have
been used to. Unless there is GER
tainty of continuous warm stables,
horses had better be kept in quarters
not too warm, but never exposed to
snow, rain or currents of ;;ir. For
some stock it is better to have them
III half open sheds, protected from
wind and storms, so that they will
be better prepared for more exposure
when occasion requires it. How to
50 arrange quarters for the various
kinds Of stock on the fam SO us to
combine health and profit in feeding,
is Il question for serious considera
ton. There must be warmth, air
and 81 anliness, for successful feed
ing and breeding.
But all stock yards in Iowa, for
the stock to sun and air themselves
in, should have high and tight fences,
and as soon rs possible groves for
wind breaks on all sides. This saves
food and fat, and gives an air Of
comfort and contentment to all the
stock. We dwell upon these sub
jects the more from the fact that
there is terrible suffering and loss all
over our own State, for want of shell
