Loss of Grain.

A hole in the granary, through which
the grain would be lost, would not be
allowed to exist very long after its dis
covery. A hole in the stable, through
which the cold air enters and chills the
animals, causes loss of grain just as
surely as the hole in the granary, as
more food will be required to assist the
animals in maintaining warmth. 1t is
the things that are unobserVed which
sometimes cause loss. When the flow
Of milk is reduced, or the animals do
not make gain proportionately to the
food allowed, there is always cause,
and it should be sought.
