Food and shelter on the Range.

There in the far Western States aud Terri
tories wide arras with n peculiarly mid cliluair.
For several years in succession, both cattle and
sheep are able To find their own food, aud are in
were always like this, nothing better could he
wished. But there is occasionally severe win
Ter; the snow covers the grass, and the cold
piercing winds drive the animals before them.
Unfortunately there are no belts Of timber, or
brush, or even ravInes m which the auiinals
may find shelter and rest, and they often become
exhausted aud perish. Provid-nt shepherds aud
herders lind that this is one Of those cases in
which it is best to not ''take the chaBees,' but
10 provide store of food each autumn, as If
they were sure that hard winter would follow.
In supplying food shelter may be provided aud
u double object gained. The natural grass of
the ranges though coarse, is sufficiently nutri-
tious to keep the animals during the winter,
even wll-n allowed to die and dry whrre 10
stands. If il can he cut aud cured while vet
partially green, the hay is of far better quality.
The simplest way to keep The hay il TO set up Il
row of posts. about IL feet apart; these 10 be
connected by other sticks running along aud
spiked to their tops. Lighter poles are then
laid from the cross-bean 10 the gruund, toward
the north side, and near enough together TO
tain the hay that may lie piled upon them. This
will make a lean-io she'd, which, when thickly
covered with hay. will afford abundant shelter,
aud at the same time food within rrach. After
= severe storm the hay may he radjusted, aud
more, If need Ice, added. A more complete shell
ter may he made by setting mp two rows of up
rights IL TO IL feet apart, using the sloping
poles as before. The two rows of horizontal
ernss-besms should be connected by light poles.
This will allow larger amount of hay to be
stored out of reach of the animals, aud which
may be used TO keep the sloping PARTON of the
sllrd in repair. Shelters of this kind may he
made Of any needed length, and shoIlh always
lie placed as to Afford protection from the Sc
yertst winds.-iM. 4g.

TIE ICE CROP.

II any farmer or hous-k-e ,er in the country is
destitute of an ice-house, great eo,nfurt Of
his life is wanting in his arrangements. Indeed
IL Is long since ice was counted among lnxuries
IN summer, being almost universally placed in

the latitude may be (for the heat of summer is
not confined to the lower latitudes,) one can
scarcely get through the season without great
discomfort, unless be has in some way a su nply
