How Not to Get old.

Once upon time young man who
had dread Of growing old and having
to give up the pleasures of youth
preached the doctrine of good compan-
ionship and jolly living.
Eat. drink and be merry" he said.
Seek gay companions and let wine
and song keep your blood in motion,
and you will never know what it is to
be old"
He followed his own counsel and
died in his youth.

Ventilation in Summer.

1t IS very important that good ven
tflation is provided for the fowls dur
ingf hot months, months when the
nights are oppressively close. Fowls
will crowd together, no matter where
they roost. and unless they be given
pure, fresh air disease of some kind
will likely make its appearance. A
house, Inexpensive and comfortable,
may be arranged so that the sides and
ends are entirely open. 1t matters but
little how open the house is during the
hot months. What the fowls need most
is dry place, with plenty Of fresh.
pure air. An open shed does nicely
for the summer months, but, of course,
the fowls must be made comfortable
before the chill winds of autumn be-
gin TO arrive.
One thing, though, that we should
guard against is the common practice
of allowing the fowls to roost In the
tree tops. There is nothing more dan
gerous. They injure themselves by
flying out, and often cannot be bIoKen
to go to the housesuntil after obey have
contracted colds from the fall winds
and rains. Keep them in the house,
but arrange it so that they will have
plenty of fresh air, yet not be subject

fence or tree top.-Home and Farm.

Most farmers are more or less famil-

and some of them have doubtless lost
valuable animals from this disease. 1t
Is a trouble that usually attacks high
bred cows, aud generally after they
have had several calves. 1t is general
~ the case that the high-bred cows are
heavy mixers, and. naturally. are fed
heavily upon grains. 1t is claimed by
authorities that this heavy feeding is
mainly responsible for mil fever. par
ticularly when it is done during preg

also has much 70 do with the disease
appearing. Meal and grain should not
be fed to pregnant cows during the last
six or eight weeks prior to dropping
the calf, but the food should be bran

latter being fed In a shed or yard,
where the animal may have the needed
exercise.
