Stanchions better than Chains. If we would kMp the rattle cli'iin at any cont, then how nhould we have them clean at least t!ont. It la fancy farming, It seems to me, to reuch our ends nt too high cost. Beet farming, that wlileh meets our ends with tthoi tent puree. The old time stanchion la better thnn the chains I see In Mime new hams. The old stylo was not chains, perhaps; he cause chains could nol ueinnde at home, and had to be paid for in money, hut I find the old stylo hero, shows a common sense, as It often does, that the present is wanting in. In going to a cattle show once, driving, the cattle along that road, they ran Into a door-yard, ns cattle will. found the farmer, a gentleman from' the city, who was completing a new barn, explaining to his carpenter how he should have his cows fattened. Mr. , 8., called upon me to wait a moment. I let my boy go on with the cattle, and went Into the barn. The carpenter was explaining the stanchion he put up last. Bald Mr. S., "I will huvo none of this. Put In chains. Who would put their cowg' necks in stocks t No, I must have a modern barn. My cows must be com fortable, I'll not have them stiff with standing in one place, like half-frozen calves I sometimes see. Cows, to do well, must have space to move freely, step back and sideways, turn the neck to lap themselves. How say you, neigh bor?" "It Is well cows 'should he comfor table," I replied, "and cows must havo exercise. Chains will allow them some exercise in the standing place. But it seems to me, I could not afford to give my cows exercise in my barn. I think it best to turn them out into the yard for this, and I find they can be very com fortable and not get stiff if they have the yard to sun themselves in two or three times a week. I have them in the yard most all the pleasant days.' They can not be out too much when they are more happy out than in. If I did not do tay own work, or cared not for ex pense, but only wished to see my cattle most comfortable, then I might have chains as you propose." "How so," said he, "do you then think chains more comfortable, and yet like stanchions be cause they are cheaper simply V" "No; but because the old stanchion is comfor table enough if cows are not kept lied up longer than they should be. There is eoououiy, I And, in keeping cows from stepping back or forward, because they keepthemselresmoreoutof the manure, and if they have much play of the neck, it is well enough so long as the animals are pleasant. But let one get cross, she gives a poke with her horns, and very likely her next neighbor may slip a calf. Home of the tine modern conveniences have their off side. Then again chains break ; stanchions do not." The carpen ter, I saw, felt he had gained a oint by my presence,and I remembertlie Incident the better since Mr. 8., came to see me the next day, to look at my ham, and said that although the books were all on one side, he believed grandfather's times were at too great a discount sometimes. This "sometimes" came In with a twin kle a the eye. A trench just back of the slightly inclining floor upon which the cattle stand, -some four or Ave inches deep and twenty inches wide, is large enough. Every little distance, say for every sixth cow, there should be a lift-up to let tbe manure down through into the cellar. Back of this trench it Is con venient to have a passage way for t he oows to walk on in coming to ' their tie ups from the yard. This is preferable to their walking up through the trench. One thing aiore to cleanliness. Dust the floor beneath theattle each day with sand or ioaun or saw dust, and if you have straw for theai to lie on, as I have not, it is all the butter. . Lice On Colls. Lice nutyooaumubtte In great numbers before they sire discovered. Sometimes they are diffused all over the skin, and at other times tbey are confined to the mane, the tall, and parts adjacent. The horse is frequently rubbing himself, and often the hair talis out in large patches. There are many lotions, powders and ointments for destroying lice. Mercurial ointments, lollonsof corrosive sublimate and decoctions of tobaeeo are so danger ous that they never should be used. Ite fuse oil or lard rubbed on a iouy - Ijcast of any kind immediately; destroys the vermin, and there is no daugcr to be ap prehended from Its application. It mere ly occasions the hair being earlier In the spring, and requires a little extra atten tion in the housing of such animals as have been affected. Vinegar mixed with three times Its bulk of water Is also a goad application, and not (it all danger, ous. It in most irritating, but tbo Irrita tion aoon subsides, and It does not sicken the bofse ; tobacco often will. Next day the sktu should be examined, and wher ever there Is any sign of living vermin another application should be made. Two days afterwards the horse thould l washed with soapy water, warm, and applied with a brush that will reuch the xkln without irritating it. J1IE SUN. 1877. . ' NKW VOKK. 1877.
