A NARROW EsCAPE.-Dr. and Mrs.
Green Of this city, now stationed at Man
opy, Ceylon, have narrowly escaped de-
struction by the falling Of their house at
night. Hearing the cracking, DR.. Green
arose, and in moment after the roof
fell in. II come on the bed on the place
just vacated by DR.. Green, and would
have killed him, had he not risen. Mrs.
Green, was covered by the fragments
but not seriously injured. The fall of
the house was owing to the white ants,
who had eaten off the bottom OF the tim
bers.- Worcester Transcript.

PoULTRY,-The hens will try to con-
tinue their species, by laying eggs, when
confined to grain diet, but as a rule,
if they can get no animal food other
wise, they will peck out and eat each
others feathers or quilts. Their natural
food embraces insects and vermin, and
when allowed to roam at large to find
these they lay well. To get eggs in
winter, give them all the odd bits of
fresh meat, lime, etc. Butchers offal is
a cheap source of animal food for hens.
We use scraps from the fat trying estab-
lishments, buying il in cakes Of from
so TO a 100 pounds, and throwing them
into the yard, where they lie until grad
ually pecked to pieces, and consumed.
this material costs from half a cent TO
one cent a pound-usually one cent
and it is the cheapest meat we can get
for poultry. Grain is good for fatten-
ing fowls. Water always accessible.
or regularly supplied, is as necessary
for fowls as for other animals. They
eat the kitchen offal as readily as pigs,
and turn IT TO more profitable account.
Avoid giving them salt food. Comfort
shelter that is from storm and wind
with good feeds the best "hen per.
suader we know Of. whi,ewash on

keep out lice. A bed of unleached ash.
es, to roll in, is good protection agains,
the small vermin. Lime in some form
AS oyster shells or bones finely pow
dered-is needed by laying hens; gray
ei, or coarse sand, lie needed by all fowls.

Nothing is Lost.
Where is the snow Z

Where is the snowf
lis not long ago
II covered the earth with veil OF white.
We heard not its footsteps soft and light,
Yet there it was in the morning bright;
Now it hath vanished away from sight.
Not a trace remains
In fields or lanes.
Where is the frost
They are gone and lost
The forms of beauty last night it made.
With pictures rare were windows arrayed;
"Be SILENT" 1t SAID the brook obeyed.
Yet silence and pictures all did fade.
At the smile of the sun,
All was undone.
Where is the rainf
Pattering it came,
Dancing along with merry sound.
A grassy bed in the fields it found;
Each drop came on the roof with bound.
Where is the rain 1t hath left the ground.
What good hath it done,
Gone away soon
ENtls Cftl
Our best endeavOr.
Seemeth to fall like the melted snow.
We work out our thoughts wisely and Slows
The seed We SOW, but it will not grew.
Our hopes, our resolves-where do they go
What doth remain
Memory Gndpain.
Nothing is lost
No snow nor frost
That come TO enrich the earth again.
We thank them when the ripcnng grain
Is waving over the hill and plain,
And the pleasant rain springs from earth again
All cndeth in good
Water and food.
Never despair;
Disappointment bear.
Though hope seemeth vain, be patient STILL
Thy good intents God doth fulfill.
Thy hand is weak; his powerful will
Is finishing thy life work still.
The good endeavor
Is lost-ah! never.

Is the Pig a Grazier?

In replying to this query, the Maine
Farmer remarks that if there is any one
animal that is omnivorous--thAt is, one
that will live upon everything and any
thiug-fish, flesh, grain or grass--it is
the pig. He is carniverous, grainivor-
Gus and graminivorous. We know that
he will live, grow and thrive in butch
er's yard, where he can get nothing but
flesh and blood. And to the question
whether he is Il grazier, we can answer,
yes. We have known the hog to live
the year round and keep in pretty good
order on grass in summer and clover hay
in winter The tarme-s in The Madaw-
aska district, also in other sections of
this state, and indeed throughout the
western and southern states, turn hogs
out to Craze Nc regularly they do their
cattle. Some Of them keep them during
the winter all or in part on clover hay.
Our neighbor Kezer, of Winthrop, used
TO feed his store hogs on clover hay,
crumbled or pounded fine with fail,
and they throve well upon it.
A writer in the Country Gentleman,
last February, gave an account of some
clover fed swine, that were found to be
in good condition. have SEEM says he,
twenty-five shoais september pigs the
present winter, which have been fed on
clover hay alone, and they are in good
flesh in fact they are in better condi.
tion than the average Of pigs win'ered
without good warm shelter and fed upon
grain. The clover fed these pigs was
cut on the Alb of July, and secured with
out drop of rain upon ii, and of course
very nutritious. The pigs, in addition,
are supplied with warm, comfortable
quarters, and have at all times access to
warm spring water. lie also adds; l
once bad neighbor who owned a noted
SOW, to which he never fed a mouthful of
grain during winter. but kept her 10 a
yard with his cattle, and she ate with
them the hay ard throve upon it.
Hogs will, however, thrive best on
variety of diet, and oftener good sup
ply of good corn meal is found to be the
best in this variety, making them very
thrifty but corn is not absolutely neces-
sary to keep them in good store order.

Cash Paid for Hides.

| GHILDS BROOKS of Coventry once more
" claims the attention of the people of Orleans
county, and this time for the purpose Of inform
ing them that he will pay cash for hides to any
amount and for any quantity that they may be
pleased to bring him. So fetch on your hides
and see which will hold out the longest--his
money or your hides. He never undertakes
anything but what he puts II through, and he
has undertaken to buy all the hides within twen-
ty miles of him, and it is absolutely necessary
that he should do so, for since he has gone into
the harness business there has been such de-
mand for his unequaed harnesses that 1t has
taxed to the utmost his gigantic energies to sup
ply the demand.

IMPORTANT Posi- OFFICE ARRANGEMENT.
The recent Congress changed the post
office laws materially. The change goes
into effect on the first day of July, and it
is important that the public should be full
ly posted. The following is the section of
the law relating to the prepayment of pos
tage and box rent:
SEC. 3. And be it further enacted. That no
mail matter shall be delivered by the post
master until the postage due thereon shall
have been paid; and no boa at Gny post Of
flee shall be assigned to the use of any per-
son anti the rent thereof has been paid for
at least one quarter, for which the postmas-
ter shall give a receipt, and keep n record
thereof in his Office, which record shall be
delivered to his SUCCESSOR
This section absolutely prohibits the de-
| liUery OF any letter, newspaper, pamphlet,
or package whatever, until the postage
! charged thereon shall be paid. Postmas
tiers must strictly conform to it. Printed
| matter must be retained until it is paid for,
either as transient package, or for a
quarter.
Postage on drop letters to be delivered
at the mailing office, is two cents on let
tiers weighing less than half an ounce; il
over half an ounce, an additional charge OF
| two cents will be made for every hall
| ounce or fraction of an ounce. The post
age must be prepaid by stamps.
| 1t will be seen that these changes take eff
I, feet On the first of July, and that the Post
| masters instructions are peremptory.-
