Sheltering Stook iS Winter.
A healthy animal requires a cer
tain nmotiftt of food in either warm
,or cold weather, but we find that in
ivarm weather an animal will keep ,
in condition on less food than cold.
The rerf3ou of this is, that there is
a less amount of carbon consumed
in order to keen up thfc heat of the
tody in warm than in cold weather.
As 'carbon Is the heating principle
whereby the system is kept at a heal
thy temperature, that element must
ho suppled in some way ; if not by
food, it nrußt be drawn from the fat
of the system*. As a less amount of
carbon is required in warm than in
cold weather, it stands to reason that
if tbflbqdy w keft protected from
the effects of the cold by proper cov-.
eiing and she-ltcr, than a less amount
of fuel or food, is required to keep
up the temperature ; thus we 11 ake
n savirg in feed without any expei -
/liturc of the carbon of the system j
already accumulated.
The temperature of the animal
body is much hi' her than the sur
rounding atmosphere at all seasons of
the year, with the exception of a few
hours in iumtner, and unless thus pro
tested, outward, artificially, a large
amount of food is required to fur
nish the necessary elements of heat.
If this food is not furnished, the sys
tem must neverfhe?ef3 Veep up its
temperature, and this is dose at first
bv drawing on the fat, and afterward
on other parts of the body. As a
necessary consequence, the animal
grows thin, and can endure less ln
bor or exposure than when well fed.
Different animals, under similrr cir
cumstances, require some more and
otheis less food to keep in good con
dition, their appetites varying as
greatly as among the human family.
Where accurate experiments have
been made to test the gain of animals
with and without t-he ptotection of
suitable shelter in cold and inele
mont weather, it has been found that
those having adequate protection
gained flesh on less food than wonld
keep those unprotected from actually
falling away. m
In providing stables, which are
found to be the protection 112 r
stock, provision should be made for
ventilation, as pure air is as import
ant as good feed or warm stables.—
Horses, neat cattle snd hogs, will do
well in quite warm stables, if good
ventilation is provided ; on the con
trary, sheep will not d<j well if kept
very warm. A much freer ventila
tion is required to keep them in good
health. Shut up simply for rapid
fattening, they feed better and fatten
faster if their pens are airy-; when
kept for breeding, it is cfsential that
they have protection from storms and
1-igh winds, with liberty for free ex
ercise in the open air at all times,
and plenty of good food ; their pens
should be well ventilated at all times
to insure the health of the old ones,
as well as their young.
In view of the forogoipg facts, it
is the better conomy of the farmer
to provide good warm stables and
shelter for his horses, horned cattle,
and hogs, with suitable pens nnd
shelter for his sheep, 'nstead of giv
ing them only the protection gained
by the shelter of some stack or fence
corner, where they will double them
selves into tbo shape of a dromeda
ry, shivering witlj the cold, and con
suming very much larger quantities
of food to keep the fire within from
going out ' Stock provided Tvith suit
able protection from the inclomency
of the weather -of winter, or cold
seasons, not only consume" less food,
but come out in spring looking bet
ter, in better health, and i:i every re
spect healthier, requiring less care,
and consuming les food in the fore
part of the season to adapt the sys
tem to the warmer feason to follow.
Sheep need dry, well-lit'ered sheds
and yards, with a feed of roots dai
ly, if possible. Boughs of hemlock
or pine thrown to them two cr three
times a week, promote the health of
the flock. leaning ewes should
have close, well ventilated sheds, lit
tered with straw cut 8 inches long,
■and warm yards. The long tags of
' wool should be clipped off around
their teats, so that there will be no
■difficulty in the lambs finding them.
Should the lauils become chilled,
bring them into the kitthen, near a
good fire; if badly oft', give warm
baths, rub them dry, wrap them In
blankets, and feed fresh ewe's milk,
-warmed. A few spoonfuls of mild
milk punch (fay one tcaspoonful- of
proof spirits in a teacup of milk,
sweetened) v. ill often revive them at
once.
My advice, then, to all farmers and
'Owners of stock is, provide suitable
shelter and protection for all of your
stock ; if you cannot furnish good,
comfortable barns and stables, pro
vide straw stables, where your stock
may stand dry, and be sheltered from
driving storms of snow, rain, and
wind.— Cor- American Farn\er.

to the other, hud stopped to rest, when
the other exclaimed :

I rum Ibe London . üb, . f|«t> -
Artemus Ward at
Tcmb,
Mr Punrh. My I)r ' r Sir: —-I've Lcen
lingerie by tho tomb of tho lamcntia
Shakspeare.
« It is a success,
I do not hes'tatc to jrenounce it as
such.
You may make any use of this opinion,
that you see fit. If you think its publi
cation will subswerve the cause of litter
atoor you maypublicate it.
I told my wife Betsy when I left home
that T til oil Id pe to the biithplacc of
"Otheller" and other Players. She said
that as long as I kept out of Newgate she
didn't care where I went. "But, I said,
"don't you know he was the greatest Poit
that ever lived ? Not one of these com
mon poits, like that young idyit who
writes verses to our daughter, about the
Uuses as growses, and the breezes as
IJlowsjs, but a Boss Poit, also a philoso
| pher, also a man who knew a great deal
about ever} thing."
! She wa* packing my things at the time,
I and the only answer she made was to ask
mo if I was going to tarry both of my
red flannel nightcaps.
Yes, I've been to Stratford onto the
Avon, the biitliplnee of Pheakspcar. —
Mr. 8. is now uo more. He's been dead
over three lit mired (300) years. The
people of hisuative town arc justly proud
of him. They cheiish his mem'ry, and
them as sell picture to put into their Al
bicm.
As I stood gazing on the spot where
Shakspeare is s'posed to have fell on the
ice and hurt hisself w hen a boy (this spot
cannot bo bought, the town authorities
say it shall never bo taken from Strat
lord,) I wondered if three hundred years
hence picturs of my birthplace will be in
demand. Will the people of my native
town be proud of me in three hundred
years? I guess they won't short of that
time, because they say the fat man weigh
in one thousand pounds wlvch I exhibi
ted there was stuffed out with pillcrsand
cushions, which he said, one very hot
day in July, "Oh bother, I can't stand
this," .vid commenced pulling the pillers
out from under his weskit, and heavin
'cm at the audience. I never saw a man
lose flesh so fast in my life. The audi
ence said I was a pretty man to co.i e
chiselin sny own townsmen in tlut way.
I said, '' Po not be angry, feller-citizens.
I exhibited him simply as a work of art.
I simply wished to show you that a man
could grow fat without tho aid of eodlivcr
oil." l)«t il.oy wouldn't listen to nie.—
They are a low and grovolin set ol peo
ple, who excite a feclin of loathin in ev
ery brest whore lofty eniotious and orig
inal ideas have a hidin place.
I stop] od at Leamington a few niinits
on my way to Stratford onto the Avont
and a very beautiful town it i.i. I won
into a shop to make a purehis, and as I
cntced I saw over the doo. those f«m.l»
i»r words, " By Appintment, 11. 1!. II.;"
and I said to them n, " Squire, excuse
mc, but this is too much. I have seen
in London four hundred boot and shoe
shops by \ppintmcnt, 11. B. II.; and now
ym're at it. It is simply onpossible that
tho Prince can wear four hundred pairs
of boots. Don't tell me," I said, in a
voice clioakcd with emotion—" Oh, do
not tell me that you also make boots for
him. Say slippers—say that yo mend a
boot now and then lor liini; but do net
tell me that you make 'cm reg'lar for
him."
The man smilt, and saiu I didn't un
derstand these things. He said I per
haps had rot noticed, in London that
dca'ors in all sorts of articles was By Ap
pintment. I said, "Oh, lia<hi't I?"
Then a sudden thouyht flasht over mc.
" I have it!" I said. " When the Prince
walks through a sireoi . he do doubt locks
at the shop windows."
The man said, "No doubt."
" And the rdtcrprisin tradesman," I
continued, "the moment the Prince gets
out of tight, rushes rantically, and has
a tin sign painted, By Appintment, 11.
R. II ! It is a beautiful, a great idee !"
I then bought a pair of shoe strings,
and wringiu the shopman's hand I start,
ed for the Touib of Shakspeare in a hired
fly. It It okt, however, more like a spi
drr.
" And this," I said, (u I stood in the
old churtli-yard at Stratfoid, beside a
tombstone, ' this marks the spot where
lies William W. Shakspeare. Alas land
thi.< is the spot where "
" You've got the wrong grave," said a
man—a worthy villager: "Shakspcaro is
buned inside the church."
"Oh ' I said, "a boy told me this was
it." The boy larfod a»4 _put the shilin
I'd given him into his left eye in a in
glorious manner, and commenced movin
backwards tonards the street
I pursood and captercd him, and after
talkin to him u spell in a sarcasticc stile
■llefl hiui weut.
The old church was damp and chill.
,It was rainin. The only persons there
when I entered was a fine bluff old gen
{ tleman, who was talkin in a excited rnar-
I ner to a fashinbly dressed young man
"No, Ernest Montrosser," the old gentle
man said, "it is idle to pursoo this sub
ject do further. You can never uiarry
my daughter. Yqu were seen last Mon
day in •ly wnfeout all umbreller!
I said then, as I say now, any young
man as ventnrs in a uncertain clirn't
like thfc without a uspbreller, lacks fore,
sight, caution, strength ef mind, and sta
bility, «nd h« is rot tho proper person to
intrust.si datjglsler's happiness to."
I slapt the old gentleman on the shoul
der,*""and Raid, '-You're rigV! You're
one of those kind of men —you are—"
lie wheeled suddenly round, and in a
indignant voiee paid, "Go way—gt 3 tray!
This is a privit iutervoo."
I didn't stop to enrich the old gentle
man'.'' mind with my conversation. I
sort of inferred that he wuso't inclined
to listen to inc. and so I went on. But
he was right'nbout tho umbrella#. I'm
really delighted with this grand old coun
try, Mr. I'ui eh, but you mu*t admit that
it does rain rather numerously here.—
Whether this is owing to a moneikal
form of government or not I leave ail
candid and onprejudiced persons to s;,y.
William Shakspeare was born in Strat
ford in 1564. All the eojrn,eutaters,
Shaksperian scholars, etsetry. are i.groed
.on 4his, which is about »the only thing
thev are agreed on in regard *o hiiu, ex
cept that bis mantle hasn't fallen onto
any poet or dramatist hard enough to
hurt said poet or dramatist much. And
there is no doubt it' these commcntaters
and person;: eontinncr investigatin Sliak
spcare's career, we shall not, in doo time,
know anything about it at all. Wiicn a
mere lad little William attended the
grammer school, because, as he raid, the
prammer school wouldn't altend him.—
This remarkable rcuiaik, coniin from one
so young and inexperienced, set people
to thiukin there might 1 o souiethin in
this lad. lie subsequently wrote "llnm
lct" and "George Barnwell." When his
kind teacher went to Loudon to accept a
position in the offices of the Metropoli
an railway, little william was chrson by
his fellow pupils to deliver a fwcwell &d
dress. "Ho on. sir,'' l.e said, "in a glo
rious career. Be like a eagle, and soar
an'l"the ißoarer you get the more wo shall
all bo giatifie ". ! That's so."
y young readers «dio wish to know
about Shakspeare, better get these vally
•ible rei'.iaik? framed.
I returned to the hotel Media a
young married couple, they asked inn il
I could direct them to tho hotel which
Washington Irving u-;ed to keep.
" I've understood that he was onsuc
cessful a» a lan'lord." said the lady.
'• We've understood," said (tie young
man, ,; that lie busted up."
I told 'cm I waa a stranger and hur
ried away. Tnejf no., frnm uiv counlrv
and undoubtedly T. presented a thrifty
11c well somewhere in I'enncylvany. It's
a common thing, by the way, for a rid
farmer in IVnnsylvany to wake tip seme
tnornin and find lie squirtin all around
his back yard. lie sells out for a inor
mou* price, and his children put 011 uoi
gcous harness and start on a tower 4o as
tonisli pcplc. They ,-uceccd in doin it.
Meantime the lie it squills and squirts,
and time rolls on. Let it roll.
A very nice town is Stratford, and a
capital inn is the Red llnrse. Kvery
admirer of the great. S. mu-t go there
once certainly ; and to say one isn't a ad
mirer f)f him is eqniv'lcnt to sayin ont
has just about biains enough to become n
efficient tinker.
Some kind person lias sent me Chan
cer'* prom's. Mr. 0. had talent, but lie
couldn't .-pel. No man lias a ri«iht to be
a lit'iary man onless lie knows how to
spcl. It's a piay that Chawecr. who had
geneyns, was so uncdicated. He's the
wiiss speller I know of.
I guess I'm through, aud so I lay the
pen down, which is more mightier than
the sword, hut which I'm 'f'raid would
stand a rayther sliit chance beside the
needle gun.

REASONS WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
Wade at WALTHAM Mass.
IN the Host.
It is mule on the best principle. Its frame!* compos
el of SOLID PLATRS. NO jar can interfere Willi the
harmony of its working nnd n > sadden shock can dam
age its machinery. Every piece is made ami flushed
by machinery (itself famous for liar.o;elty, us well as
for it* effectiveness) and is therefore properly made.—
The watch is what all mechanism should be—ACCU
RATK, SIMPLK, STROXO, AND ECONOMICAL.—
Except some high grades, too costly fo? general use,
foreign watches are qhiefty made V>y women an I boys,
Such watches are composed of several hundred pieces,
screwed and rlvi'ed together, and roqu're constant re
pairs to keep tlum lu any kind o order. All p-»Y*on<
who have carried 'ancro*,"' ''leplnci" nnd "English
Patent Levers," arc peifectly well aware of tho truth of
this statement.
At the beginning of our enterprise,'more than ten
years ago. it was our object to make a thoroughly good
low-priced watch for the million, to take the place of
these foreign impositions—tho refuse of foreign facto
rlr«—which were entirely unsaleable at homo and per
fectly worthless everywhere.
How well we have accomplished this may be under
stood from the fart, that after so many years of public
trial, we now make MORE THAN ONE-HALF OF ALL
TUB WATCHES SOLD IN THRUNITED STATES, and
that no others har» ever given such universal sati fac
tion. While this department of our business Is contin
ued with increased facilities for perfect work, we aro at
present engaged I* tho inafjhfhctnre of watches of tho
verv Hp JII EST OR A 1)E KNOWN TO CfßlONOftl ETRY
Unequalled by anything hitherto made by onrselves,
and unsurpassed by anything m i4c In the world. F«.r
this purpose w* have the amplest facilities. We hr.vo
erected an addition t-> our main buildings expressly for
this branch of our loudness, atnl have filled it with the
best workmen in our service. New machines and appli-
Agces have been constructed, which perform their work
with consummate delicacy and exsctne.-s. The choice t
ami moot nj.proved materials.only are US<NI ar.d we chal
lenge compaiisod between this grade of onr woik and
the finest imported chronometers. We do not pret-'nd
to sell our watches for Irs* monty than foreign wi.tcl es
br.t we do assert without fear of contradiction that for
the tame, m tmty our pr<Mlurt Is incomparably superior.
A1 onr watches, of whatevei grade, are fully wflrraMed
and hi* warrantee i* good at nil times agaiuet u* or onr
agents in all parts of the .world.
CAUTION.—The public are cautioned to buy ortly o
