To KEEP Fowls HEAr.TuY.-The
way keep my fowls IN health, | clean
out the house once week; put wood
ashes under the roosts have iron basins
for them to drink from ;uwhite wash
inside Of hen house with hot lime put
a little Kerosene oll ON the roosts once
month. The nam food Is oats, aud
cakes of scraps to pick on. l never
feed but once day at noon, or whom
| shut them up at four or fv" M
When hey ran out, then give them all
they will eat. In my experience, there
IS no way to get diseased fowls easier
thau to keep them stuffed il makes
them lazy, and they won't work as
much as they ought to, to keep IN a
healthy condition
never had any gapcs in chickens.
When any fowl begins to droop I give
three large pills Of common hard yellow
soap; us the best thing to cleanse
fowl | know OF. I follow it for three
days, give them nothing to eat and
plenty of pure water to drink. In des.
perate cases, give teasponntul oc tnc-
ture nf lobeia. 1t will seldom, if ever,
fail of curing. 1t is very cleansing
anu powerful mru,c;ne for fowls.-H.

KERnsENE HoRRUR.--T h New

nallies and loss of life from kerosene in
New York and Brooklyn within the last
seven months .....

sene explosions in seven months, within

resulting in twenty probably twenty
threr) deaths. eighteen serious and
twelve slight injuries, and au aggregate
loss by fire of 48,4S5, so far rs this par.
tial investigation informs us. This is
by no means an exact summary Of the
casualties within the area specified,
however. No account is here made Of
the accidents on Staten Island, where
there have been many. nor o: those
places on Long Island. other than
Brooklyn, where the ma ority Of til.

All the Californians do not entertain
themselves bv abasing the Chinamen
and cutting off their tails. Under The
direction Of the Hon. George Barstow,
a Sunday school for the Chinese has
been established in San Francisco, with
one hundred and thirty two pupils and
and one hundred and four teachers, it
being desirable to have teacher for
every pupil at the commencement of his
instruction. 1t is stated that these
scholars acquire knowledge very quick
ly, and this agrees with what we already
know of tho natural qnickness Of tho
Chinese character. If we go on treating
these exles in this sensible way, the
wretchea ring, which is already forming
with an eye to their practical enslave-
nlen' and consequent degradation, will
find hates labor lost. - Tribune.
| The H0TTRsr DAY.--The hottest
day on record in many places on the
side of the United States was Saturday
last the 2isl of August. Not it New
York. where the highest degree OF heat
was only mnety-five, but in some other
place., Piladelp phia, for instance, where
the mercury III the shade f5r a time
marked lo4, and Washington, where it
rose TO- los. Such great heats extend.
ing over wide section, produce great
changes, and so 1t is probable that from
the heated term of Thursday, Friday
AMI Saturday last the backbone OF the
summer Is broken. rxAs .s.
