EDITOES.—Those chilling storms and frosty nights which have begun onoe'more to visit us, have called my attention to : I to er ror practiced by many farmers; in leaving a . portion of their stook to lie upon the ground • at night, yarded in the operiair and exposed to all the vicissitudes of the %leather at a time . too when the twit of the preceding summer has induced such a habit of body as to render Own highly sensitive to the first approach of cold. If we would reason from our oeln ex- • perience, we should see that it is the tranishion from one extreme orclimate to another which effects them moat seriously, and we ought, cousequently, to pay a- special attention their comfort at such times. - • Cows that have been allowed to remain in the pa-tare at night, or yarded awayirein the barn, should now be furnished' at night, at least every cold and stormy one, with-ii eater And a dry plaoe'to lie, « Young stock should when it Is practieeble, be similarly provided tor, although many far-- meis think they may be allowed like sheep, to find their shelter where - they find their food till they are finally l b rought into wititstrlquar.
