ELTY TO ANIMALS, lit w EST FOURTH
ST, CINCINNATI, July Is, 1885 ]
The farmers OF the State are earnestly
requested when they thresh their whea,
to construct from the straw shelters in
which cattle, sheep and hogs may be pro.
'ect' during the coming winter. A few
forks nay be sci in The ground and poles
laid across, over which the straw from
lbe tl'reshing machine may be piled, thus
forming warm sheds 10 which animals
may be protected from the snow, rain
and wind OF the winter season. These
straw sheds can be built at the time ol
threshiDg with little or NO trouble and
expense The improved condition of the
stock from their better care will make il
pay handsomely to do this, while every
humane sentiment demands that our
dumb servants shall be protected as fully
as possible from every form of suffering
We are aware that much more atten.
tion is given now than formerly to the
proper care of stock In our State. New
eriheless very serious complaints of neg.
lect in this matter reached US during The
past winter from every part OF the State
We believe it is only necessary thus to
suggest this matter to the farmers to
have the evil remedied

Why persist in running your digestion by
eating unwholesome food; and keeping it
ruined by doing nothing to restore it to
usefulness and right action? Some think
that dyspepsia is incurable. They are the

makes short work of the tormentor and
soon enables the digestive apparatus to do
its work. Mr.. ii. Z. Collins of Keokuk,
