Feeding and Care Of ChickenS,

A. NJ. H., in the Cincinnati Gazette, gives
his method Of feeding aud management Of
chickens. His remarks in reference to
the chicken cholera are no doubt in the
main correct, for we have noticed that
poultry confined in close, ill.ventilatcd
houses, were tho first to be attacked by
this disease, Mr.. L. says:

Many who have the care Of window
plants seem to think that the operation
Of watering is one Of the simplest items
incident to their care, and will hardly
thank us for advice on this point, and
yet We may safely hazard the assertion
that more plants are injured and more
fail to reach their greatest perfection
from an improper mode Of watering than
from all other causes combined.
N water the various varieties so that
their different wants shall be supplied
aud no more, is an art acquired by but
few, and the credit which some receive
for fine collections is often due to the
proper Observance Of this one item.
1t should be kept in the mind that the
duty of the water is to dissolve and con.
vey to the roots Of the plants the food
which they need some plants must have
season Oi comparative rest, and II such
are watered literally during this time
they will keep on growing, and the neces.,
sNrv rest is not obtained. When any Of
my lady friends tell me that they succeed
very well with certain classes OF plants,
such as the fuChsia, Gala, lobelias and
iyies, and fail with others, at once set
them down as profuse waterCrs, who, by
too much water, injure or destroy such
plants as will not bear it. On the other
hand, there are those who fail with this
class OF plants and succeed well with
others, because their mode Of watering
does not supply enough for the want Of
one class, but is about the proper amount
for another.
Many plants are permanently injured
by water remaining in the saucer others
often suffer from bad selection OF the
soil.
Some OF our amateur florists fail with
certain class Of plants, Of which the
bcgOnia may be taken as a type, because
they shower the leaves with cold water,
but for this very reason are eminently
successful with another class, Of which
the Camelia will serve rs a type.
As a general rule, from which there
are few variations, the texture Of the leaI
may be taken rs nm index Of their power
to resist the application Of water. Plants
having porous, open or ileshy leaves coy.
cred with soft down, should be seldom, II
ever, moistened, while those having glossy
or hard leaves will do all the better Il
watered frequently,
Our ivies, hoyas and cObUas seem to
laugh at us after good dashing, but the
begOnias, cOleuS, and plants Of the same
class, do not appear to appreciate II.
