Blue gentians fringed the tiny upland river,
Some late bird set one sad heart a-quiyer-

The blasts swept round and round in mad
careering,
And out among the rocks, from dusk to

Sounded the fog-belr widest cry of warning
And it was long to wait.

As spring will come to steadfast hearts and

USE LITTER FREELY.
Not Only Keep Animals Warm and Clear
but Absorb All Liquids

Not Only Keep Animals Warm and Clean,
but Absorb All Liquids
1t is perhaps always profitable toll have
troughs and watts for holding liquid ma
nure, but very many farmers do not
possess these, and must depend upon
the absorbent quality of the litter. The
value of the liquid exeremsnt of cattle,
sheep and horses exceeds the value of
the solid, and as this will be saved Just
in proportion to the absorbing caparity
of the substances used for litter. we al
ways select that substance which will
best absorb liquids. Litter is also to
prevent the escape of animal heat and
serves the same purpose as shelter. Ii
retains the animal heat, not altogether
because it is poor conductor, tut it
holds around the body of the ANIMAL
quantity of air. and air is n very poor
conductor. Wooden clothing is warmer
than cotton clothing. because it holds
among its fibers large quantities of air
which retard the passage Of the heat.
Saw-dust answers best the requirements
of litter. There is no doubt of its ex-
cellence; but often there ray be of its
economy. Where saw-dust can be had
for the hauling, or for q small price, the
farmer is certainly foolish if he does not
use it literally for bedding. Its value
in the compost heap will lar exceed its
cost. But In some parts Of the country,
IS on the Western prairies. it is
impossible to procure saw-dust;
and the farmer must use the
best available substance-s,raw. It
is inferior only to saw-dust in retarding
the passage OF heat and absorbing the
liquids. Like saw-dust, it holds air
around the body of the animal. The
straws are filled with air, and air is held
in the spaces between the straws> 1t is
equally well adapted to the purpose as
i'm absorbent. Straw is much moro
largely used for litter than any other.

straw IS considered q necessary evil, to
be reduced to manure as expeditiously
as possible. Even when > show of
feeding it is made, the object is more to
get it into manure than TO put flesh

where not ten per cent. of the slower
from corn is utilized, and where other
excellent fodder, including hay, is al
lowed to 90 to waste, and on account
of its abundance, IS always fed in a
sloyenly manner. Here we can well usa
litter abundantly. and where it has q
value as litter, it should be used in silf-
feient quantities, not only to keep the
animals warm and clean, but to absorb
al the liquids. In such places it pays

but in its saving. Leaves and vines ara
