REMOVING VARNISH.
Many worries have tgeir floors _var-

and there is nothing apparently to o
but ut on another coat and renew
is to much chipped that it makes the
floors unsightly. There are many
things recommneded for removing
varnish, each -warranted to take it off-
with but little trouble. 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. Get a can of lye'and put it in
an old pail or kettle and pour on

§ TURF _
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:
