WINTERI.lG IDLE HORSES.

At this time of the year practically all
the heavy work on most farms has been
finished, and with the approach of winter
horses are more or less idle. Since idle
horses give no return in labor performed,
the feeding should be as economical as
possible, and proper care should be taken
of the animals in order that they may be
in the best possible condition for work in
the early spring.
Horses should not be confined to the
barr during the winter on liberal sup
ply of grain. 1t is far better to Trough"
them through the cold months. They
should be given the run of the yard or
lot during the day. This should be pro-
vided with protected shed, one that is
thoroughly dry and we'll provided with
bedding. While nature does her part and
protects the horse with heavy coat of
hair during the cold months, the shed is
necessary in order to afford the necessary
shelter and protection against rains,
snow, and cold winds. Winter winds
come mostly from the north and north
west, and the shed should be 80 situated
and constructed as to give the proper
protection from this quarter.
In the feeding of idle horses the high
priced feeds should be avoided in order to
keep them in proper condition at the low
est cost. 1t has been found that idle
horses do very we'll on winter feed
consisting of all the hay, oat straw, corn
stalks, or sorghums they will consume,
so that little grain is necessary. Idleness
also permits of a more thorough mastica-
ton of the feed, thus insuring proper
digestion.
From six to eight weeks before the
spring work is started the horses should
be put at light work and started on
small grain ration in order that they
may be in proper condition for the work
required of them. The grain ration may
then be gradually increased until the
regular allowance has been reached for
the working season.
Growing colts require considerable pro-
TEN. They should be SO fed as to secure
proper development and at minimum
cost. Rough feed, such as clean mixed
hay, alfalfa, or clover, may be fed along
with mixture of bran, oats, and corn

committee that in 1882 revised our Con-
fession and Covenant. He was the right
arm of Rev. Mr.. Cushman, he and his
colleague, Deacon Hale, from 1885 to
1901, during his noble pastorate of near
ly sixteen years. And for half century
was he the superintendent of our Sun
day school.
'He was the son of Deacon Samuel
and Susy Moulton Adams, of which union
there were six children; and he was
twice married, to Isabella F. Osborn of
Belfast, in 1856, and to Susy Sherman
Crosby of Waterbury, Conn, in 1888:
and today SIX children bless his memory!
'None present few weeks since at
the Sunday evening service of our Chris
tian Endeavor Society will forget the
earnest recital by Deacon Adams of
temperance tragedy of early Castine.
In his narrative we saw the courthouse
and the culprit-his manly beauty i'm
pressing the boys sensitive imagination,
but years afterwards implanting a
wretched memory when drink had blot
ted out the image of the man and left
the mark of the beast. Little did we
realize that it was the deacon's last pub
lie appearance, for the firm, resonant
voice gave no hint of enfeebled health.
'But the anniversary of the advent
of his Lord and Saviour was to become
the anniversary of the disciples birth
INTO the Higher Life. On Christmas
Day the prepared spirit of Deacon
Adams joined the company of just men
made perfect; end, when he had passed .
one standing by saw ga smile on his
lips" After but brief confinement to
his bed, the departure was quiet and
peaceful. With the vital organs unim-
paired, the oil sank slowly in the lamp
until there was no fuel to feed the flame
of the physical life.

his eternal bark to gentle tide, know.
