Care of Poultry in Winter.

Very few persons pay necessary attention
to poultry in winter, although at this season
they require constant care. \ poultry house
to be quite warm, should be constructed
with double walls ard roof like an ice house
and should have as much glass as possible
to admit light and sunshine.
Boards about four inches wide are better
adapted for roosts than round poles, as the
fowl sitting on them can cover their feet
with their feathers and protect them from
frost. Old are not worth feeding; they
should be got rid of and young, vigorous
ones substituted. When more than three
years old, hens are not usually worth keep
ing.
Abundant food should be given in winter,
as without it very few eggs will be obtained.
Every poultry house should be furnished
with boxes for the hens to lay in, so ar
ranged that they can not roost over them.
Food and water should be given with reg
ularity, and a supply of lime, gravel, crushed
bones and charcoal should be always availa
bic.

How to Unhitoh a Team.

There is always a right way to do every
thing, and the right way to unhitch a team
is that which is quickest and safest. We
have often noticed farm boys, and not only
farm boys but men, disconnect team from
a wagon in very unsafe msnner; some
thing as follows:
The driver springs from the wagon, goes
to the sides of the horses, puts up the lines,
unbuckles them at the bits, lets down the
neckyoke, unhitches the tugs, and leads the
horses away disconnected.
Now this mode is very common, and very
risky. Let us notice why: In the first
place, as soon as the lines are put up you
have lost your means of control, as soon as
the pole is down you horses are in peril.
Supposing they should take fright which is
common to the most quiet animals, the re-
suit OF a team running with one of the tugs
pitched can be imagined. We have cases
In mind where horses have sped away with
maddened fury in exactly this condition, the
sole blowing the ground and at..every plunge
of the frenzied animals, the wagon striking
their heels, frightening to perfect despera
ton.
Now the right way, or good way at
least, is to keep the lines in hands or where
they can be reached until the tugs are all
unhitched. then your team is free from the
wagon unless stationary neckyoke is used,
next go directly in front of the horses and
let down the neckyoke, and after this sepa-
rate them as convenient - Ohio Farmer.

The Ohio CuItirotor says the following
recipe is worth thousand dollars to every
housekeeper:
Take one pound of sal soda and half
pound of unslacked lime, and put them in
gallon of water: boil twenty minutes let it
stand until cool: and then drain off and
put in jug or jar: soak your dirty clothes
over night, or until they are wet through
then wiring them, and rub on plenty of soap
and with water add one teacupful of wash
ing fluid: boil half all hour or more, rinse,
and your clothes will look better than by the
old way of washing twice before boiling.
This is an invaluable recipe and every poor,
tired woman should try it.

Sllas Brown says that twenty-five years
ago he dipped shingles in large kettle of
lime wash to which salt had been added, and
the whole kept boiling. A few of the shin
giles were dipped in all over at a time, long
enough to soak then well, and then thrown
aside to dry. In short time all the shingles
were thus prepared. Although what are
termed 'sap shingles" they have lasted
twenty-five years, land may do so for years
to come" Several experiments of SINH
lar character have been made since, with
very successful results.-AIbday Cultirator.

gamblers. Il serchants who pur-

OF trade, and fde bankers and bro.
kers, were not 5S6ong the victims, except

l6O, when, by waiting FIVE minutes, they
might have bought at 1873. Several
regular bankers also were obliged, on
account of the crowded state of the Clear
ing House, to suspend all operations
until their baldaces could be ascertaincd
Leaving out few exceptional cases,
nobody was hurt outside of the gambling
The secret Of the whole matter is that
few very wealthy men, who can con-
troll money by the million, had deter
mined to "lock up" gold, and laid their
plans before hand by purchasing gold at
low price to be delivered in future
BY contracting to buy at 13O they would
make twenty-five dollars on every hun
dred if they could force gold to 16O
Their antagonists would have to pay the
difference. They therefore buy up all
the gold they eau, and suddenly present
their demands for payment, when there
is scarcely any gold to be bought. This
"corner' is usually successful and
worked very we'll on Friday until noon
when the announcement was made that
the Secretary Of the Treasury had order
ed tho sale of four millions Of gold. The
price dropped Immediately to the normal
rate, and all Legitimate buyers were
relieved, while those who had sufficient
confidence in tho "corncr" as against the

lutions were adopted, calling Convcn-
tion of tho "6ona tide citizens of the

ture and issuing of bonds by the State
government, "and to give to the world
notice Of their intention to avoid the
payment of these obligations"
The Chester Reporter doubts the wis
dom of the course proposed by these
resolutions. Their effect will be to lower
the market price of the bonds of the
State, thereby causing the issue Of a
greater number of them and increasing
the tax to pay the interest on the same.
We agree with the Reporter, that
"upon the whole the proposed Conven-
tion in Columbia should go by default"
