HINTS FOR FARMERS
The Care Of Stables.

Only about one farmer in five adj
heres strictly to maintaining the prop
er degree of cleanliness about the cat
tie and horse stalls and the hog sheds.
The filth that is usually found around
the barn and sheds is wholly mex
cusable. 1t is the forerunner of many
forms Of disease and various kinds of
vermin. There Is more or less damp
ness in stalls where animals are kept
even if careful precautions are adher-
ed to. When carelessness permits it to
accumulate this is only intensified.
All the stalls and beds should be
kept perfectly clean and the bedding
changed often. At least twice week
the bedding should be removed from
the floor and a thorough disinfectant
sprinkled on it. AS cheap and effective
disinfectant as can be, used is air
slaked lime, to which may be added
small amount of crude carbolic acid
Sprinkle this on the floor of the stalls
and cover with dry bedding. Germs
and doors cannot exist long where
such treatment is given.
