Damp Stable*.
Damp stables are caused by a lack
of sufficient circulation of air to take
up the moisture. When the barber
wishes to dry your face quickly he
uses a fan to circulate the air about
your face and thus take up the mois­
ture. Every cow is throwing off from
seven to ten pounds of water every
twenty-four hours.
It will condense
on cold walls unless sufficient fresh air
Is circulated through the stable and
often enough to dry ft up. There Is
no other way to take up this moisture
or prevent it. In regard to the tem-
lieratnre of a stable, keep It at 50 to 55
flegrees. But In all these things a
stable must be properly ventilated.

No young animal will attain to a*

Thia applies to lambs as well as other
animals.
Sheep are dainty feeders. They will
not eat hay that other creatures have
mussed over. They refuse grain taken
from a ratty crib.
An excellent plan in handling sheep
Is to provide well protected yards into
which they may be turned on fine
days and have a shed for the stormy,
blustery weather.
Put the unthrifty appearing ewes by
