tfousing Farni Animals
• BY I. J. MATHEWS. *
• The time of year has come when all

of some importance. The arguments
on each side of the question must be
weighed and each given due considera-
Oen in planning for the comfort of the
animals and for the pocketbook of. the
owner. . •
Degree of Warmth
• Among stockmen to -day . there is
quite a dispute as to . how 'set= the
stables 'Mould be for different animals,
,and this question is answered largely
by tte type of animal and by the re-
quirements which are made of them.
It is very true that cold animals will
use up the body flesh In furnishing
warmth and the flesh thus used 11,p can
only be replaced by good food which
is expensive. carboh drate feed do
not generally range as high in expe se
,as the rich protein feeds, but present
prices are very high:indeed. It seems
then, that any precaution or extra care
in housing will be well repaid by the
ease of keeping which will result. It
costs somewhat more to winter,a feed-

he is kept out doors in the %cold, an
as though he is sheltered from the ele-
ments. Then there comes, the valid
argument, that the labor involved is

Avoid Cold Drafts
Fresh air sufficiently warmed never
hurt any animal but cold drafts have
brought on many ailments which have
resulted disastrously, . The mistake
that is made in the construction of a
greatmany Ontario stock barns is that
t I
of excluding the air, too much and no
providing any means of ventilation at
all. Bank barns, seldom are venti-
lated at all and while they. may be just
right as far as 37vermth ~is concerned„
the absence of plenty of pure air is
detrimental to the stock; they are
compelled to re -breathe the same air
o many-times-thirt-the-body-processes
cannot take place as they should.
Eince fresh air is so free, and since
it can be So easily and .inexpensively
supplied to the stock, and at the same
time not .subject them to drafts,
there -is ,little-axeuse-for-not-supply-
ing it. ' I know.that the moment
speak of ventilating a stable, someone
is going to think immediately of a •
high-priced ventilating system which
will take more money than he can rale
and scrape to pay for but such a sys-
tem is a luxury and not a necessity.
Method of Ventilation • •
_ _
The thing to he remembered in any
'method of ventilating is that Cold air
heavier than warm air and so if the
air is allowed to get out through the
top of the stable, the stable will be
cold for all the fresh -air -will be Sup:
plied:at the -bottom-. - - the other
hand, if all the fresh air is •supplied at
the top throughonelarge opening and
is conducted out at the bottom through
another single exit, the pure air is not
sufficiently warmed, and _besidep,' a
draft is created....
'In some stables; enough' air can get
in around doors and windows, but oth-
ers are too eight so a stale stable re-
sults; open. the doors in winter .and
stable odors arid impure air roll out
eufficient, quantities to be noticeable
in the extreme. In order to have the
air well warmed, it should come in at c
several places, preferably near the top y
of the stable.
