No farmer should be without good

Fifty hams can be- smoked at one. time in a
smoke house seven by eight feet square,
Mine is six by seven, and is large enough
for most farmers. | first dug all the ground
ont below where the frost would reach, and
filled it up to the snrface with small stones.
On this laid my brick floor, in lime NOR
tar. The walls are brick, eight inches
thick. and seven feet high, with "a door on
one side two feet wide. The door should
he made of wood and lined with sheet iron.
For the top put on joists, two by four, set
up cdgewise, and eight and half inches
from centre to centre, covered with brick
and put on Il heavy coat of mortar. / built 4
small chimney on the top in the centre,
arching it over and covering it with single
roof in the usual way. An arch should be
built on the outside. with small iron door
to shut it up, similar to a stove door,
with a hole from the arch through the wall
of the smoke house and an iron CRATE over
it. The arch is much more convenient and
better to put the fire in, than to build fire
inside the smoke-house, and the chimney
causes a draft through into the smoke house.
Good corncobs or hickory wood aret the best
materials to make a smoke for hams. The
cost of such a smoke house as | described is
about $50.

FEVER IN CATTLE.-When your animal
has fever all stimulating articles are to be
avoided. Bleeding to reduce the circula-
ton; purgng for removing irritating sub
stances from the bowels; cooling drinks to
allay thirst and supply decreased secretions !;
rest and quiet to tone down the system, are
what common sense would seem to require.
This is safer than to cram the animal with a
multiplicity of cures, without regard to any
thing except that something is the matter.
We trust farmers and owners of animals
will heed the admonition here given.

Spinach.

Tc have spinach at its best, it should be
cooked in very little water. Wash, and
place it in a saucepan with only the water
that adheres to the leaves, add lump oi
butter, and stew gently, with the pan close
ly covered, until tender. Take out, chop
fine, and return so the saucepan with more
butter-no matter how much, hardly, for
spinach will allow of the use Of large guam
tity, if one has it to spare. Seasoning OF
salt and pepper may added-some use nut
meg-heat up again, and serve. 1t is very
common to garnish or ornament the dish
with slices Of cold boiled eggs.

LIVE SrocK.-Live stock of all kinds
should have owners supervision. If Others
do the work his eyes should see that it is
well done. Few hired men can be trusted
to do things constantly according to direc-
tions In very cold weather there is con,
slant temptation to consult his own ease
rather than the comfort of the animals en-
trusted to his care. Feed and water regu.
larly. Keep salt within reach ofhorses, cat,

best for This purpose. tkey can lick when
they please, they will not take it in excess

RENEWAL or TUE WIGAN SFRIKE.-The
colliers and drawers employed at California
Pit, Aspul, belonging to the Wigan Goal and
iron Company, are again on strike. About
$50 have left work. The cause Is stated TO
be that the men are aggrieved through
the masters having made certain deductions
for ending up tubs short ofweighf, and dirty
coal.
TEE Strike IN SouTH WALRs.-No settle
ment Of the dispute between employers and
employed in some parts Of South wales res
pecting the reduction Of wages has yet taken
place.
In Monmouthshire, where q huber Of the
GOLFERS have been on strike for period OF
fifteen weeks, decision has Just been arrived
at to continue the strike for three months
longer if the masters will not give way.
In GlamorgAnshire the prospects OF gen.
eral strike are not in any way diminished,
but, if anything, are becoming more appa-
rent and formidable.
In the Rhonda Valley there are twenty
eight collieries, and out u that number At
least twenty are on q standst'h and it 10 be-
,ieved that the men employed at two out OF
the eight will follow the example set them
by the others in the valley.
Stake IN SCorLAND.-There is q prospect
Of serious strike among the miners in the
west of Scotland, and, 10 may be, Of strike
even more extensive.
A meeting Of miners was held on Thurs
day, near Motherswell, for the purpose Of
trying to prevent further reduction of
wages. Mr.. Alexander M'Donald, the secre-
tary Of the Miners Association, gave it as
his opinion that it would be well for the
miners Throughout Scotland to stop labor,
as they were suffering starvation and misery,
and were working for 40 per cent less wages
than the miners in England. The meeting
unanimously agreed that the employers
both coal and IRON masters) should be asked
TO advance the wages one shilling day,
and If they refused, that general strike
shOuld enSue
