HOW TO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT is hopeless
to attempt to tatten chickens while t'ey are
at liberty. They must be put in proper
coop; and this, like most other poultry ap-
purtenances, need not be expensive. 10 iat-
ten twelve fowls, coop may be three feet
long, eighteen inches high andelghteen lnches
wide, made entirely of bars. Nopart solid
neither top, sides nor bottom. Discretion
must be used according to the size of the
chickens put up. They do not want room
indeed the closer they are the bet
ter-provided they can all stand up at
the same time. Care must be taken to put
up such as have been accustomed to be to-
gether, or they will fight. If one is quarrel
some, it is better to remove it at once; as like
other bad examples, it soon finds imitators
A diseased chicken should not be put I'D.
The food should be ground oats; and may
either be put up on trough or on a fiat
board running along the front of the coop.
1t may be mixed with water or milk-the lat
ter is the better. 1t may be well soaked,
forming pulp as loose as can be, provided it
does not run off the boa d. They must be
well fed three or four times day-the first
time as soon after daybreak as possible OF

hours. Each meal should be as much and no
more than they can eat up clean. When
they have done feeding, the beard should be
wiped and some gravel may be spread. 1t
causes them to feed and thrive. After fort
night of this treatment you will have good
fat fowls. IT, however, there are but five or
six to be fatted, they must not have as much
room as though there were twelve Nothing
Is easier than to allow them the proper space
as it is only necessary to have two or three
pieces of weed to pass between the bar and
form partition. This may serve when fowl.
are up at different degrees of fairness.
This requires attention, or fowls will
not keep fat and healthy. As soon as
the fowl is sufficiently fatted it must
be killed; otherwise it will still not get fat,
but will lose feshs IF fowls are intended for
the market, of course they are or may be all
iatted at once; but if for home consumption,
it is better to put them up at such intervals
as will suit the time when they will be re-
quired for the table. When the time arrives
for killing, whether they are meant for mar
ket or otherwise, they should be tasted for
twelve or fifteen hours. This enables them
to be kept for some time after being killed,
even in hot weather.

No murmur swims along the all,
Wrapped IN her dim and dusky ven
Earth seems to slumber eyerywheFe'
All the still dews in hiding lie
with unrobbed sweetness droops the rose,
Nor up nor down the garden walks
A slight or stealthy zephyr blows.
Darkness and hush, profoundest peace;
The falling leaf forgets to float;
When with the deep and mighty throb
Along the headland strikes the rote!-
Strikes with the awful undertone
OF some great storms tremendous blast,
That far through white mid-seas plough ON
TO scream around a broken mast!
But here the swell shall heave to shore
A muffied music, till it seem
