of the fourteenth centnry of El Yelam—a day that for fifty yesrs the followers of the

ft was the day that

in-doors, giving them all the adv. tages of excellent quarters, grooming, and select food, neg'ecting the reyuisite we have named, shows « want of understanding of how far cattle, like mew, are sustained by the air they breathe.

When we consider that a ‘full-grown cattle beast consumes probably not less than four thousand gallons of air during each twenty-four hours, it will be seen that a stable containing a herd of twenty or thirty cows must have a provision for fresh air of no small limit The importanes of observ- iwg correct rules in this regard, has been recently quite clearly brought out in France, by observing the effects of increase of space allotted to each animal employed in the cavalry service. Previous to the change the space allowed to each horse was 700 to 900 feet of air each. Under this regulation the deaths from glanders were fif y-one in each one housgad head during ten years. The deaths from all diseases reached ninety-four in one thousand during the same period. The mortality from glanders during the ten following years, the space having been increased to eighteen feet, was brought down to ten in each one thousand head; and, from all diseases, to twenty-seven in each thoasand, against ninety-fouras above stated. Observations have proved that similar results follow in the case of cattle, and it is, of course, entirely natural that it should be so,

There is, perhaps, no part of the winter management of housed-up cattle so difficult to exactly control as temperatare. Not difficult if the stable is properly constructed, so that the ventilation can be regulated to suit a large or small number of occupants, as the exigencies require, the heat generated by their bodies giving warmth sufficient for healthy stock, if the stable is properly constructed, Cold air should on no ace»unt be permitted to enter beneath a stable, especially if the floor be otherwise than close. Even though it be as tight as plank can well make it, no cemplete comfort can be secured. Openings above can be tolera- ted better than the merest cracks beneath, if they communicate with the outer air. Before an animalean lay on fat, the claim made by the body to be kept warm, must be met, In proportion to the degree of warmth afforded to the bady, in that proportion will there be a surplus of the food given, which can go to increase the fat deposit. An eminent authority, Dr. Play- fair, said: “The food is fuel, the ex- crements are the ashes, and the gasses expired from the mouth are of the same composition as those which fly up the chimney of a farnace.” Cattle kept in a hot climate require less food than these kept in a cold climate; hence, we find a provision for this state of facts. Tropical foods contain aboat 20 to 30 parts of heat-producing material—char- coal; while the blubber and fats used in the Arctic regions contain from 80 to 90. Ia those regions, food full of heat-making material is required, and the foods suited to a southern climate would not sustain life in the region of the Polar seas. When we reflect that a person can consame twenty pounds of blubber at one meal, when ex- posed to the open air in the regions named, it proves what we have said—that food takes the place, in such a case, of fuel, strictly so in its effects. Oorn is well cal- culated to make heat, when fed tw catile in cold weather, as it is also well caleulat d to make fat when the temperature and other conditions are favourable. Young growing cattle require more nitro- genous or flesh forming food than older cattle. Young cattle, even calves, in cold weather, require an abundance of heat- forming food; but this alone is not suited to their case, fully, in any weather. But few make such csreful provision for the growing calf or yearling, in the matter of food selection, as these young things re- quire. Even the unlearned gardener shows stricter regard for the requirements of the growing vegetable than the average cattle- grower does for the calves that are annually dropped upon his farm. Extra specimens of vegetables cannot be grown except the right kind and quantity of nutriment be placed within reach of the roots, to be taken up according to the requirements and capacity of the plant. The young growing animal occupies precisely the same position; and if the conditions we throw around it, while in the stable, are in every way con- ducive to health and vigorous digestion, it will occupy the same position as the plant in that it will be able, safely, to take all the food, entirely suitabl- fortae dem inds of its growth, that can be digested and as- similated.

Another of our oldest and most respected citizens has pa away, Robert Walker, Esq, of New Annan, brother of Jobn Walker, Exq., of same place, whose death we chronicled a few weeks ago, died after a short illness, on Monday last, in the 70th year of his age.

A canoe was found the other day cn the shore of Malpeque harbor, supposed to be the one out of which the two Indians were lost a few weeks ago, as it had what appear- ed to be a hole made by a gun shot in the bottom of it. The theory that the shot was the cause of the fatal accident is gener- ally believed.

John Gaudet, of Muddy Creek, shot and killed a bear which weighed 305 pounds, on Wednesday, 20th ult., within a short distance of his house. His bearship seemed quite tame and did not act as if he anti- cipated any danger until his skin was punc- tured in several places by an overdose of buckshot,
