Personally, I think from-much experience that it is impossible-to -take* tbe_hard‘~ floor varnish off without considerable trou- ble, but it can be done. The best re- mover l have tried is plain, simple iye.

KEEP TROUGHS AND MANGERS
stock go into permanent .winter quart- 'ers this year, will they find' their man- a/gers clean and sanitary or will they be foul with the accumulation of dust, dir.t, cobwebs and droppings from hens during the past summer or even years?
In the cow barns, the practise of
watering the cattle in the stables which is agood one under proper con- ditions and careful management, al- lows the mangers to be-come wet en- ough, at times, through the drippings from the mouths of the cattle and slop- ping from the bas-ins`__or troughs to cause all kinds of soft material to adhere to the- su-rface. By this imeans odd places that are in' protected ioc- ations soon become sour through chop, dirt, etc., lodging there and these are a. continual menace to the health of both the cattle and men through its being a lodging and breeding place for all kinds of germs.
ln order to avoid this evil condition.
the cow mangers should be swept out ca-refuliy before, each meal, remov- ing any excess of water, litter, chop or feed of any kind not este/n up clean at the last meals By following this- plsn no chance' for accumulation of filth will exist; and by the way, it may be noted- that, through neglect, the purest and -best food may soon=become- a filth unfit for use. _
Where mangers have been unused
through the summer they should have a good washing with zenoleum or some other good gefrmiclde- to~kil‘i all- gsrlms and make them sweet and. sanitary.
All stable floors should have._the’ir
animals where the droppings are lia- ble to sccumufiats,'but also -the fee-:ling floors, and all persons walking about the stable should bs"careful.- that their boots are clean. ‘All anima.ls_are par: ticular about their food a.nd_will_refuse dirty proven'der. The habit of spitting
