Manure from One Fowl.

Lewis Wright, the well-known Eng
lish poultry writer, says that IN one in
stance the droppiDgs of four Brahma
fowls in one night weighed exactly one
pound; in another instance ID ounces.
The average was 81 ounces per bird,
but which was reduced by drying to
II ounces. On basis of one ounce to
each fowl, the amount per year will be
% "a pounds, and for a flock of 80
head LAO pounds. He pronounces
the manure equal to guano, and better
in some respects; but counting it as
worth only $50 per ton, the manure
from 80 fowls will be worth S25 per
annum, or 80 cents per head. This es.
innate is not probably any too nigh,
and is worth remembering by those
who keep poultry, or who propose to
do so.
IL should also be remembered that
this estimate is merely for the night
droppings, and takes no account of the
value of what is made in the day time.
Much of this last, no doubt, is lost by
exposure, but iudicious management
of poultry yards by breeders bent on
saving everything possible would pro.
badly result in devising a mode OF
utilizing most of it.

To Kill Caterpiiiars.

NICHOLAS c. H., W. Va, June Is.
Editor of the Times and Chronicle:
The following method for removing
caterpillars from fruit trees L know by
personal experience to be sure Bore
hole in the tree about a quarter of an
inch in diameter, and about one inch
deep. Put -four of sulphur in suffi
cient to nearly fill the hole, then plug
the tree. Cut off the plug close. The
hole may be bored anywhere in the
main trunk of the tree, and will not
injure it. Try it, all who are troubled
with caterpillars, and in three days
every one that is in the tree will be
dead. Yours, JOHN s. ELKINs.

Origin of a Familiar Line.

A correspondent Of Harper's Bazaar writes
that the oft-quoted line, Though lost h
sight, to mem'ry dear, originated with Ruth
ven JENKINS, and was first published IN tn,
Greenwich Magazine for Marines, in 1901 o.
1902. As literary curiosity, we quote tn,
whole poem:
Sweetheart. goodbye the futt'ling sail
Is spread to wait me far from thee
And soon before the fay'rng gale
My ship shall bound upon the sea.
Perchance, all desolate and forlorn,
These eyes shall miss thee many year
But unforgotten every charm
Though lost to sight, 30 mem'ry dear.
Sweetheart, goodbye one last embrace!
o, cruel fatel two souls tO severl
Yet III this hearts most sacred place
Thou, thou alone, shalt dwell forever.
And still shall recollection trace
In Fancys mirror ever near,
Each smile, each tear, that form, that face
Though lost to sight, to memry dear.

Hog CnOlern.

Dissolve thoroughly one pound OF
copperas in three gallons of warm
water, and apply the wash about milk
warm to the effected animal by dipping
into the solution or rubbing upon il
until the skin is thoroughly wet.
Whenever the skin of the hog begins
to look rough or scaly, or of dark red
color apply the wash Immediately.
Don't wait until more alarming symp-
toms vomiting and purging) set in.
Apply the wash every day until the
scales are removed. The correspond
ent states that this remedy has been
tried repeatedly, and without single
failure when the directions were prop
erly followed. At any rate it is worthy
of a trial.

can carry the heavy weights across the
country and the deep .plowed fields and
maintain place with the hounds. No
inferior bred horse can get through
deep, heavy ground, jump hedges and
bitches, like the full blood, nor finish
up and return home so cheerful after a
hard days work. They are rarely
ridden or driven off their feet, however
severe the exertions of the day may
have been, while the common
horse will refuse his food and
turn from the manger. If, from
English experience, the full-blood or
thoroughbred horse is so desirable for
the hunting field, it must follow that
he is equally so for the road. For all
the lighter kinds of draught the thor
oughbred is most decidedly preferable;
and even for the operations of agricul-
ture coplous infusion of what is un
derstood by the term blood would be
found great improvement. A class
of animals would thus be produced,
not so bulky as the present draught
horse, but more vigorous and stronger,
more active, and capable of enduring
much greater and long continued ia
tigue.
Assuming these facts TO be correct,
we hold to our original theory as to the
superiority of the thoroughbred over
the Norman or any other family OF
horses for crossing with cold-blooded
stock, whether for heavy draught, road
purposes, or the trotting turf.

Much of the future growth, and, in

A Talk About Fences.

BY the Lenawee, (Mich.) Farmers Club.
Mr.. Isham gave the cost, after close
calculation, of the various board fenc-
ings. A fence with cedar posts and
five boards high to cost 1888 per rod !;
the same with oak posts to cost $l.33.
Another with oak, one six-inch board
at the bottom, two four-inch and one
three inch board, TO cost SO cents. A
picket fence for farm. OF oak, to cost
$1.53.
Mr.. Sayles gave the cost of tue old
fashioned rail or zigzag fence to be one
dollar per rod, estimating the cost of
new rails at fifty dollars per thousand,
and staked and wired FIVE rails from
the ground. He gave as his opinion
that such fence was much cheaper
for farm fence than board fences. In
setting posts for board fences, however,
he was particular to pvt the end of the
post down that was up in the tree, and
gave no reason for the theory. He
thought February the best time to cut
timber for posts, and thought that
posts should be seasoned before setting.
He had rails on his farm that had been
laid up in fence thirty-five years, and
believed that good sound rails would
last fifty years. He had never seen
much patent fence that amounted to
much.
Mr.. Werter agreed with MIR. Sayles
that rail fence was much the cheapest
fence also that posts should be sea-
soned where post and board fence is
built. Believed split posts better than
sawed, and if the tree is sound the
"butt cut was better than nearer the
top of the tree. In answer to ques-
ton, Mr.. Werter said that oak rails
would last better than ash near the
ground, but that above he had no
choice.
Mr.. Calvin said he thought the soil
in which posts were set had almost
nothing to do with their rotting; had
found them to last longer on low
ground; agreed with the others that
rail fence is the cheapest fence, even at
cost OF rails as given by Mr.. Sayles,
$50 per thousand.
Mr.. Jones agreed that the soil had
much to do with the durability of fence
posts. He set white cedar posts in
quicksand; they rotted in six years.
Mr.. Isham knew of two oak posts
taken from the same tree, and set four.
teen years ago. One was taken from
the "but cut of the tree and set top
down, and had rotted off two years ago.
The other was taken higher up, and set
as it stoodin the tree, and is sound and
good get.
Mr.. Jones said he would set the top
of the post down; that it was all fool
ishness to build lenses with sawed
posts. Thought a small post better
than large one. He also agreed that
rail fence was the cheapest farm
fence.
The club finally came to the decision
that a good worm rail fence is the
cheapest and best a farmer can build.

From the Danbary News

You can always tell boy whose
mother cuts his hair. Not because the
edges look as if it had been chewed off
by an absent-minded horse, but you
tell by the way he stops on the street
and wriggles his shoulders. When q
fond mother has cut her boys hair she
is careful to guard against any annoy
ance and muss by laying sheet on the
carpet. 1t has never yet occurred to
her to sit him over bare floor and put
the sheet around his neck. Then she
draws the front hair over his eyes and
leaves it there while she cuts that which
is at the back. The hair which lies
over his eyes appear to be surcharged
with electric needles, and that which
is silently dropping down under his
shirt band appears to be on fire. She
has unconsciously continued to push
his head forward until his nose presses
his breast, and is too busily engaged to
notice the snuffling that is becoming
alarmingly frequent. Inthe meantime
he is seized with an irresistible desire
to blow his nose, but recollects that
his handkerchief is i'll the other room.
Then fly lights on his nose, and does
it so Unexpectedly that heinvoluntarily
lodges, and catches the point of the
shears i'll his left ear. At this point
he commences to cry and wish he was
man. But his mother doesn't notice
him. She merely hits him on the
other ear, to inspire him with conf
dence, and goes on with the work.
When she is through she holds his
jacket collar back from his neck, and
with her mouth blows the short bits of
hair from the top of his head down his
back. He calls her attention to this
fact, but she looks for a new place on
his head and hits him there, and asks
him why he didn't use his handker-
chief. Then he takes his awfully dis
figured head to the mirror and young
as he is, shudders as he thinks of what
the boys on the street will say.
