Good shelter for animals will not
make them less hardy nor more sus-
ceptible to disease; on the other hand,
In many cases. 1t will prevent the con-
traction OF disease. There is no ques-
ton about the good OF making the
shelter warm and comfortable, pro-
viding the sanitation, ventilation and
lighting are good. These are things
that are to be looked into carefully.
One other trouble In closely sta
bling animals for a large portion of
the year is the lack OF exercise for the
animals. 1t Is a biological fact that
all animals must have a certain
amount of wholesome exercise for
health. development and working or
producing power Inactivity means
decay and death. Keeping mich COWS
closely stalled for weeks, and even
months at time, Is not right from
humanitarian point OF view. and
thinking persons know that 1t is not
good for the health Of the animal.
Under such treatment, there is no
wonder that so many of our dairy
COWS fall prey to contagious diseases.
Their physical powers have been so
reduced that they cannot resist them
as they should under normal condi-
lions, with greater freedom for ac-
tivity.

barn is 40 by 80 and has a curb roof.
1t affords large amount of storage
room for hay and grain.
With all classes of stock the value
OF the feed Is the same, whether Il be
fed to the scrawniest of scrubs or the
best Of full-bloods.
Barley is one OF the best feeds on
the farm. 1t contains little more
protein than corn.
In bad weather Angora goats should
be fed some cheap hay or root crop
II protected from the rains you will
be repaid by more and stronger kids.
When good weather settles your goats
Will go back to their brush eating
with ravenous appetites.
The average market hog should
weigh 300 pounds at eight months of
age. For the pig two to four months
old, protein is the most important
feed
Ground flaxseed Is an excellent sub
stitute for butter fat to be fed to
calves. Use heaping teaspoonful to
every feed OF milk while the calf is
from two to six weeks old. provided
you are feeding skim milk
AS the calf grows older gradually
increase the flaxseed meal until the
calf Is getting about a heaping tea
spoonful with each feed. This may be
mixed with the milk, but never mix
cornmeal or any other ground feed
that contains good deal Of starch
with the milk, as that is very apt to
produce scours.
Starchy foods must be mixed with
saliva before digestion takes place,
and anything that is drunk with the
milk does not become thus mixed, and
consequently 1t fails to become d.
gested and acts as an irritant to the
alimentary tract

When the Vermont Senate comes to the
question Of constitutional amendments it
VIII do well TO stick to the text prepared
by the special commission appointed by
Gov. Prouty Gov. Mead has suggested
one amendment in addition to those rec
commended by the commission. 1t would
be easy TO bring forward other amend
ments which seem important. but the
whole plan OF reform. which should mark
an epoch of advancement in the states
history, should not be endangered by
bringing in at this time questions which
are likely TO arouse discussion and differ
ences. The Senate will act wisely If it
simply proposes the amendments sug-
gcsted by the commission.
