one tablespoonful of spirits of camphor,

MEAT FOR Fowls IN WINTER. Nature
has provided for wild birds an abundance
of easily digestcd food at the time they
need it most, for when nesting, Mt the
beginning of warm weather, the army Of
insects chat keeps pace with the new veg
citation supplies every element needed in
the formation of eggs. As hens, wheth-
er wild or domesticated, are no exception
to the general law, and their laying de
ponds very much on the amount of AMI
nal food they eat. and when the ground
b frozen, or when they are kept shut IN
either in Summer or Winter, they must
be given butchers meat of some kind.
Calves plucks, and the plucks of sheep
and lambs, with the hearts and livers at
taehed, are the best for the purpose The
mode of preparation is important We
have seen such thrown whole and un-
cooked into the poultry yard but there
is much waste, because the firmer tissues
cannot be pecked to pieces so as to be
swallowed by the fowls, and cats, dogs
and rats prey upon what is left overnight,
lesides raw meat makes hens quarrel
ssme among themselves. The proper
way is to boil until tender, and run
through sausage machine, and the alb
sence of bones facilitates the latter oper-
alton, on which account we do not pro-
cure calves and beeves' heads when the
plucks are to be had. If not convenient
to use mincing- machine, then take for
small quantity of meat IN ordinary
chopping knife and wooden BOWL, or for
larger operations a box, such as is used
in mixing cut feed for horses, and spade
with good steel blade ground to a keen
edge. After chopping add to the mass
the liquor in which it was boiled, thick
ened with meal and seasoned with cay
enne and salt, and feed warm. If it is
too much trouble tc provide for your
fowls in Winter an equivalent for insect
forage, then give only grain but expect
to procure your eggs of somebody else
who makes an artificial Summer for his
poultry as to diet, and, as far as possible,
temperature also. Hearth ana Home.

DIR. Gobel, an account of whose travels

lage of Ponoi, on the White Sea, he
found the inhabitants using n peculiar
form of earth rs an addition to flour in
the preparation of bread. Both chemi
cal and microscopical analysis shows
this substance to be purely mineral, and
wholly unfit for digestion its chief in
gredient being alumina. In the district
of Kirman, in Persia, the people are
addicted to a similar practice, only the
earth which they employ may be of some
service in correcting certain defects in
the bread. 1t occurs in Jumps the size
