the horse too FAST In cold weather. get
ting him too warm and then tying him
in the open. exposed to the cold wind,
rain or snow. This will give the horse
pneumonia the same as If a man were
treated in like manner Given the best

From Rain and SIeet.

When winter draws near the man

for the flock in winter.
During the winter the sheep should
be turned out of the shed OH dry days.
even II the winter IL very cold If it
