Gold Production OF Australia.

The month of October last was the
most remarkable one that has occur
ed in the gold industry of Australia
for several years. In consequence Of
the Improvements In the working Of
the quartz mines at Sandhurst q
great increase in the production Of
mines In that region, and many new
discoveries of gold, a gradually in
creasing excitement to invest In
Sandhurst shares Was caused, which
finally. terminated IL q speculative
mania. New discoveries of the pre-
cious metal are constantly being
made In otner quarters, and it Il now
claimed that nearly the whole colony
Of Victoria is auriferous, and that
gold will be extracted from it for all
time to come. Some Of the mines in
the Sandhurst district have been
worked from tho surface to a depth
of over seven hundred feet, yet the
quartz extracted is as rich as ever,
and the deposit seems inexhaustible.
4 case recently heard In the Sand
hurst Court Of mines illustrates the
vicissitudes attending the pursuit OF
wealth by mining. a working min
er named Norwood brought suit to
recover share In q compauy-one
Twelfth In the Golden Fleece claim,
Garden GuIiy-which he claimed
had been Transferred from him
through Misrepresentation. 1t ap-
peared that he had originally bought
the share for e 19s., with the under
standing that he was to pay certain
calls upon it to the amount OF SO.
During the trial it came out that the
same share had previously been sold
for ten shillings. and that . similar
share in the same company had been
sold for one shilling, which had been
expended In drinks for the parties to
the sale. The present value Of these
shares is $40, 900 each.

Preserving Eggs.

Kohler, of Germany, who owns
an extensive poultry raising estab-
ishment, and who, every winter,
preserves thousands of eggs without
ever losing one, has recently pub
hshed an account of his method OF
proceeding, and has given the fol-
lowing rules for securing favorable
results:
1. The nest must be placed in a
cool place.
2. The fowls that show a tenden-
cy to set must be removed at once,
and placed in separate Enclosures
until this propensity has left them.
3. If many hens be confined in
the same Enclosure, or use the same
nests for laying their eggs, the eggs
ought to be removed from the nests
several times a day.
4. The eggs ought to be assorted
according to age, and preserved In
boxes with the covers always par
italy open. These boxes must be
kept in a cool, airy and perfectly
dry place.
5. At the commencement of win
ter the store of eggs is placed in
some room that is not heated by a
fire, but that is, at the same, thor
oughly protected from frost.
6. The packages are so arranged
that the oldest may be used first.
Eggs treated according to these
rules do not acquire the peculiar
taste which is generally the result of
the recipes in vogue for preserving
eggs.

Game Hens and Ducks.

A writer in the Canadian Poultry
Chronicle gives the following as his
experience with the laying qualities
of game hens and ducks:
There are few fowls more prolific
than game, and where there is q
good wide range of any kind, no
fowls will prove more profitable, the
black-breasted red variety being the
best. They eat little in proportion
to larger fowls, and are very good
layers but they cannot be kept In
close confinement on account Of
their fighting propensities. No
fancier that can find q suitable place
in his poultry-pard but should have
few ducks. Their appetite is such
that almost any kind Of food viii
supply them ; they pick up the
waste food left by other fowls and
grow fat on it. In the barn-yard,
in gardens, and In pasture lands
they are alike useful and beneficial.
There are three kinds which now
stand high among breeders, name
ly: The Aylesbury, which is pure
white the ROuen, which In colon
resembles the wild Mallard; and
the Cayuga, which are pure black
except occasional white spots Oh

ton, which is beneficial to its pro-
ducing qualities, and every time it
is stirred produces a new action. I
don't believe it will have so good an
effect to stir it toag often, neither
must it be too long after it has been
stirred. AS a general rule it should
be gone through with just the day
before the weeds make their appear
ance at the surface. I have often
heard farmers say: "My corn is
perfectly clean 1T is not necessary
to go through it," Ali I under
stand, not necessary In order to kill
the weeds, but should there not be
weed grow through the whole sea-
son, you would not go through it at
all, I suppose. Not so, however.
Go through it just as often, not
necessarily to work deep, but the
shallower the better, if it is clean.
Plow deep and work shallow and
often, is the rule. Should recon-
mend that the rows be marked very
plain, so that they can be gone
through with by the time the corn
is fairly out of the ground /; then
the weeds viii be out of the way for
the season. Don't neglect this last
suggestion. Observe the foregoing,
and my word for it, if any one in
the neighborhood has good corn,
you will be the man, and your land
will be improved also.

Rules for the Care of Sheep.

We copy the following suggestions
about sheep from q circular issued
by Mr.. F. @. D. Mckay. the General
Agent of the American Emigrant
Company. The Company have al
ready ten thousand sheep scattered
among the farmers who purchased
land of them, in focks ranging in
size from fifty to two hundred head /:
1. Keep sheep dry under foot
with litter. This is even more nee
essary than roofing them. Never
let them stand or lie in mud or
snow.
2. Take up lamb bucks early in
the summer, and keep them up I'M
til December LIST following, when
they may be turned out.
3. Drop or take out the lowest
bars as the sheep enter or leave a
yard, thus saving broken limbs.
4. Count every day.
5. Begin granting with the great
est care, and use the smallest guam
tity at first.
6. If a eve loses her lamb, milk
her daily for a few days, and mix a
little alum with her salt.
z. Let no hogs eat with the sheep
by any means, IN the spring.
8. Give the lambs a little milk
feed in time of weaving.
9. Never brighten sheep if posi-
BILE to avoid it.
10. Sow rye for weak ones in cold
weather, if you can.
IL. Separate all weak or thin or
sick from the strong, in the fall, and
give them special care.
