Don': hit till animals die of disease or are emaciated and hair.. less from parasites before discovering trouble. Diseases are spread more rapidly when animals are eonfused'in winter quarters. One of the most important factors in cheap and healthy wintering of animals is elem waters and no quarters can be kept clean and free "on! disease and parasites without disinfection " leet twice annually. The basis of disinfection is direct} contact. Disease germs under 'a‘ layer of manure, straw or dirt, can- not be killed by average disinfection. Hence the first step is the thorough cleaning out of the barns. scraping (and washing. if possible). all walls and floors, and sweeping dirt, dust and cobweb: from Walla and ceilings. Wood floors should be repaired and earth fuors reneged with a layer of clean soil. What Malena-ta to U» I I. Sunlight. This is the cheapést and one of the best. Every stable should have at least (isq. ft. of class per mature head of horses and cattle, and one-quarter this amount for calves and mature hogs.

The measure of the swine feeder’s ability may well be taken by his success in handling his later summer and fall litters. Here the percent- age of culls and unthrifty pigs is usually high, particularly with the late fall litter obliged to winter in cold or worse damp quarters Gen- orally speaking. no young Pitts should arrive altar September, unless the feeder has exceptional facilities for winter swine ruining. To ensure strong fell litters the sews should spend the summer on pasture with as much range a pos- sible.

Farm machinery represents a fm-l ancial investment. Taking propel"l care of it results in a monetary traintl leaving it exposed in the open at all. seasonsr of the year must mean- economic loss, not only to the farmer but to the whole country. It is gen- erally recognized by authorities on1 agriculture that, if exposed in all sorts of weather, farm machines dbl preeiate more than they do from fair wear and tear. That is to any. thel farmer, who is Clueless in this re-1 spect pays for more than twice the l number of implements than he actual- " requires. At the some time greet manufacturing plants and mall armies of workmen have to be kept busy replacing these losses, which, in thousands of instances, are purely and simply the result of carelessness and neglect. A . To house implements properly, it I may not be necessary to have a special implement shed. Many farmers canii utilize an unused barn floor, or a part1 l of some other building. Poultry orl other live stock should never be al- lowed access to the building, or part of a building that has been set aside for machinery. On most farms, how.. , ever, a special implement house irl desirable. A suitable building, it carefully planned to conserve space, can be built at a reasonable cost. Plans can be obtained from the Central Experimental Farm at Ot- tawa. Before implements are stored for the season, they should be carefully cleaned and oiled. It is a good plan, after removing all dirt, to wipe the' ‘entire machine with an oiled rag and ‘to grease all wearing parts with tal- low or axle grease. Further, it pays to renew the paint on the machinery at regular intervals. Paint of good quality, applied to well-cleaned sur-. faces, is an excellent prd%etion, as well as improving the appearance of the machines. Then, too, it is an advantage to attend to all necessary repairs during the winter when the machines are not required. This will: save much time and annoyance in thel busy seasons. l To sum up.' Proper care of farm} machinery necessitates a suitable building where the implements will be protected from the sun, wind, rain, snow and live stock, when not in use. In addition, it should be kept clean, well oiled (painted, if necessary) and in good repair.--A.D.
