Raising Chickens.

Idesire to write what know Of raising
turkeys and chickens. The recipes given
for curing chickens Of the gapes, such as
whites of eggs, corn meal with pepper
wheat soaked in turpentine, and a mum
Der of others, are of little If any value.
The gapes in chickens are caused by small
worms getting into the windpipe. have
raised thousands upon thousands of chick
ems, bought and sold chickens, and believe
that gapes is a contagious disease, for my
chickens never had them till l bought
strange chickens. have tried many
cures, and there are none that amount to
anything except the horse hair. By iD,
serting the horse-hair in the chickens
windpipe, you draw the small red worm
out, and this at once relieves the chicken,
and the gapes are cured.
In regard to raising turkeys, the best
plan is to feed them on milk made into a
cheese with wheat and wheat screening.
In time of rain keep them in the dry, for
when they get wet they get draggled and
die. Cornmeal have tried, and upon a
clear examination 1 find that it does net
agree with them. Old turkeys think do
best out in the cold on trees, rather than
In sheltered places. Let every farmer be
cautious of what he feeds young turkeys
until they are ten weeks old know
that the foregoing is correct, for have

A Luxurious Conveyance. :

The travelling train of the Empress of
Russiais, perhaps, the most complete and
luxurious in the world, and it is, indeed,
a house upon wheels. 1t consists OF eight
saloon carriages and offices, connected by
covered passages, and is divided into din
ing and drawing-rooms, bedrooms, and
Kitchens. The dining-room has large
oval windows, which give uninterrupted
views over the country through which the
train passes the drawing-room is an ele-
CANT apartment, prettily furnished, and
the bedrooms might be those of a COM
Portable house. The beds are, seemingly,
of the ordinary kind, but are in reality
hammocks, which enable their occupants
to sleep without sustaining any annoyance
from the vibration of the train. OF course
such an establishment would not be conn.,
plete without servants, and TO the train
are attached domestics of all kinds, from
buffers to engine-drivers and porters. To
the train, however, is attached sad SOU
venir; it formerly belonged to Napoleon
I'LL, and was used by him for his Lyons
journeys, though it would be difficult to
recognize it as the same, so completely
has it been reconstructed and improved.

A Good Word for ApricOts.

Why do not our successful plum-grow-
ers in the South turn their attention TO
the apricot for profit At present prices,
such as we have to pay the confectioner
for the few specimens offered for sale, we
should presume it would be difficult to
find any fruit that would give larger per-
centage on the investment. We have in
mind beautiful apricot orchard belong
ing TO DR.. Hull, at Alton, ILL.,, thatat tie
time Of our visit, a few years since, was
truly a.handsome sight. Not only We're
the trees in perfect health, giving evil
dence of unusual care, but they were pro-
ducing abundance of fruit. The apricot
is not by any means tender tree it will
endure quite low temperature without
injury-the past winter sustaining no in
jury with the mercury from zoe to SOC
below zero. They should, however, al
ways be set on the north side of buildings,
where one or two trees are kept for fam
ily use, as the blossoms lead the flower
ing season, and consequently are liable to
injury from late frosts. The terrible cur
culio are as destructive on this as on the
plum, and jarring the trees is the only
sure remedy TO bring the best results. In
some sections of our country, where the
climate is comparatively mild, and the
Little Turk not so plentiful, apricot cul-
ture will prove remunerative and satisfac-
tory. 1t is needless to add that for des-
sert no fruit can surpass it for delieacy of
flavor, richness of flesh, nor beauty of
appearance.-N Y. Tribune,

A Happy Thought.

The London Atheneum relates the fol-
lowing instance of neat revenge: Mr..
Bro wn, let us call him the proprietor Of,
shall we say, the Kitchen Sumner, was
dissatisfied with his novelist, Mr.. Jones.
and told him so. Jones was then.half
way through romance. which appeared
in weekly driblets, but Brown gave him
notice to quit at once, and added that ne
had engaged Mr.. Robinson to go on and
complete the story. Jones accepted the
warning, but remarked that as he had
sufficient manuscript copy to supply the
chapters for the next number, they had
better be 60 set up" after which Mr.. Rob
inson might take up the thread of the story
and get to the end of it. Brown consent
ed. and went down to his suburban re-
treat" whittier was forwarded to him the
next number of the Stuns,er, with Jones
chapters, from which Robinson was to
continue the narrative. If Brown pos
.sessed true critical faculty he must have
admired the inventive power of his own
hired writer, and have doubted whether
Robinson would be equal to the present
emergency. In short, Jones having col
lected every living parsonage and ANNA
he had named in the novel, put them al
aboard ship bound for America, an(
sent the whole of them-ship, freight ant
passengers-down to the very bottom
the Atlantic. never to be. brought VI
again. The words, "to, be continued,
at the close of the. chapter, formed chal
lenge to the ingenuity of Robinson, whicl
he was i'll qualified to accept, and accord

finished, and as forgotten as the autho
who stopped, and the writer who coul
not set it going again.
