from II to Is cents and &c, cents.
Bedspreads have been raised from
7 cents to 10 cents and sheets from

HINTS FOR STOCK OWNERS:

| The dairyman vino allows his stock
to stand with arched backs on the
/ shady side of the barn on cold, blust-
cry days, is losing money faster than
! he can afford. UGH a course is as
foolish as to put all the drafts on the
stove and then to open tne doors an I
windows.
Scratches are caused by exposure 20
cold and wet, local irritation Or low
condition, all of which should be
avoided if possible. In simple cases
, apply cloths wet with weak solution
, or sugar Of lead, and in winter cover
to keep out cold. When with the

stead Of the lead; fnely-powdered

cloths

turnips on the ground.
That old sheep that snuffles will be
done for before spring. Let her go

Look out for them.
Bring the fattening pigs from past

The brood sows should have two
compartments, one for feeding and
one for sleeping.
Look out carefully for the drainage
of the hog pen. Where does it 60:
Surely it must not find its way 10

II you don't want your hogs to eat
up every hen they can get, give them
variety of food, so that they will not
be so carniverous in their appetite.
Keep the horses doing something
every day. An idle horse will be a
sick horse before you know it.
With the fall letting up of work,
let up on the heavy feed. Like men
horses doing little work should eat
little.
Some of the cracks in the stable

Peelman is in the dairy business ut

He says the immigration to that state
