FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Comparative Fecundity of Ducks and Hens

Comparative Fecundity of Ducks and Hens.
Some. interesting experiments have
recently been made upon the compare
tive fecundity of ducks and hens, so as
to determine from which of the two
the larger number of eggs can be OBJ
tanned in the same time. For this pur-
pose three hens and three ducks were
selected, and all Matched in February
and no1lrished with suitable food. In
the following autumn the ducks laid
225 eggs, while the hens laid none. In
the next February the laying season be-
gan again with the ducks, and continued
uninterruptedly until August. They
showed no inclination to set, but be-
came very thin, although they we've
afterward fattened up somewhat. The
total number of eggs laid by the hens
amounted to 227, or IS eggs each, and
1913, Or 131 each for the ducks. Although
the eggs of the ducks were rather
smaller than those Of the hens, yet they
proved TO be decidedly superior in
nutritive material, SO that the superior
ity in productiveness appears to be de-
cidedly with the ducks. i1 81,

Mules as Work Animals.

Mules are not considered handsome
animals, and yet when we examine them
critically we shall be surprised to see
the muscular development from which
all supertiuous flesh has been elimin-
ated; the bone and sinew and the I'M
doubted powers of endurance for which
this animal has become celebrated It
is true that the mule is generally sup
posed to be vicious It is also as trl1e
that this misapprehension of one of the
most patient and docile of animals
should be done away with. The vi
clousness is, in almost every case, due to
brutal drivers, and to belief among
those who are not brutal that
work can only be got out of
a mule by hard knocks; the real
facts are, that mule, well cared for,
well treated and driven as a humane
man would drive his horse, will not only
do It's work promptly, as efficiently and
cheerfully as horse, but as far as re-
CARDS many kinds of farm work, much
better, for the reason that it's apprecia-
tlon OF surrounding objects is not SO

A New Breed of Cattle. &

A Brussels (Belgium) correspondent
of a metropolitan journal sends long
account of the experiments Of a Hol-
land experimenter, NJ. Won Koppenal,
who now thinks, after forty years ex-
perimentation in various directions, he
is on the right track, having succeeded
in breeding fertile animals from cross
between the American bison and a
Brahmin COW. The result is termed
Bos conpositus, the bulls when fully
grown weighing | 500 pounds and the
COWS 1000 pounds. They retain the
feshy hump of both parents. 1t is
said to be of the size of two bushel
sack when filed. The COWS are report
ed as yielding an average of $4,000
pounds Of milk each per annum and
nine pounds of milk are said to yield
one pound of butter, q thus equalling
the finest strains of Jersey CATTLE
According to this formula these Won
derful cattle would average over l AZ
pounds Of butter per annum, which not
only equals the finest strains of Jersey
cattle, but throws them SO COM
pletely in the shade that they may well
cast down there fawn like eyes in de-
spair. 1t is a wonderful breed indeed,
when COWS will average nearly once and
half'theic live weight in rich butter,
per year. ~
NJ. Won Koppenael admits one Sc
rious defect in this new breed of cattle.
He says they are every fierce and i'm
patient of confinement, /" and thinks he
will have to breed it out. We should
think SO. 1t would not he at all pleas
ant for dairymaids or dairymen either
to enter yard where these buttery ami
mails ''pawed the ground and looked
at the visitors with red, savage eyes. :"
A herd of wild Texan bulls would in
deed be pets in comparison.
We are further informed that "the
known deIicacy of constitution and
tendency to sterility of the best strains
of Short-Horns made NJ Won Koppenal
think of going back to the wild blood"
He tells the correspondent also "that
it's remarkable fecundity is one of tn
most valuable traits of the Bos conapos-
titus. Every COW he has bred so far
has fetched him twin calves.
The correspondent thinks SO it proba-
BILE that in a year or two at least NJ. Won
Koppenel will transfer portion Of his
improved stock to Kentucky. F .
We do not think, however, that the
breeders of Kentucky, or any other por-
ton of the fertile west, will give up their
magnificent short-horns for what NAV
be In store for them in the next ten or
fifteen thousand years, when this won
derful BOs cOn0pos5tats has come to it's
full developement. AS a fancy sketch,
however, the article is We'll written,
aside from the apparent exaggerations.
Still COWS that will make 1,40O to l 800
pounds of butter year are not to be
passed over lightly, and by dosing them.
with chloroform perhaps they may be
induced to stand still long enough to be
MIXED. E-a @

Hints on Constructing Walls and Partitions.

Hints on Constructing Walls and Partitions.
We apprehend that the great points
to be considered In this country in the
construction Of building, are two in
number, other considerations being
equal, viz, to have it, first, warm in
Winter, and, second, cool in summer.
Now, by the simple study of the princi-
pies OF conduction and radiation, we
could, In a great measure, secure these
two boons with scarcely any extra ex-
pense; at least, we could render our
buildings fifty per cent. better in these
respects. than they are. aj17
1t is Well-known fact that light.
porous substances are much worse con
ductors Of heat than y those that
are hard and compact Go, for instance,
on Winter day, and lay your hand on
a piece OF iron or steel, and the
chances are that it will be frozen in q
very short time; next lay it on piece
OF hard wood, beech or maple, for in
stance; the cold IS not so great, but still
1t is very uncomfortable; try pine next,
and the feeling IS more tolerable. and
so on down TO feathers, if Won like.
when you feel no cold whatever Now,
III each of these different articles the
intrinsic temperature may have been,
and most probably was, precisely the
same. but the reason you did not feel it
SO was that iron is a better conductor
than wood, that is, iron extracted heat
more readily out of your hand than did
wood. In like manner, hard WOOD is
better conductor than pine, and pine
than feathers.
The first lesson, then, is obvious; build
your walls and partitions ifyour house
is to be wooden one) Of pine, and if
ycu desire to carry the principle still
farther, make yoJr walls all double and
I'LL the recesses or intervals with sawdust
or tan bark. The results will surprise
you.
Another principle is that those arti-
Giles which are the worst conductors are
the best radiators, that is, while they
serve to retain what heat is already with
IN, they are very 10th to admit any
more. This Is the reason that sawdust
is one OF the very best preservatives of
ice in the heat of summer. Confined
air has also been found an excellent
thing for purposes of warmth in winter
our doublew window system, and
hence 1t is that many are now p11rchas-
ing hollow bricks for building purposes.
Snow is very bad conductor, and
herein we see one of the wonders of
Creative Wisdom, that the very severity
of cold, by producing those feathery
crystals, spreads covering over the
earth which protects from itsown freez-
ing effects the tender heritage buried
beneath its ample shelter. Cancdo

FROZEN potatoes may be cured by
soaking IN water three days before cook
ing. ae-
To CURE scratches in horses, wash the
legs with warm, strong soap suds and
then with beef brine.
To REMOVE paint splashed upon win
dow panes, use hot solution of soda
and soft flannel.
A MIXTURE of 358 parts of phosphate
of soda and l24 parts of boracic acid is
mentioned as another good copper weld
ing compound.
NEVER store any article of food Or
drink III old petroleum barrels. They
are poisonous even after they are
cleaned.
COPPER and brass articles may be
coated with zine by dipping them into
boiling concentrated solution of sal
ammoniac containing finely divided zinc.
To make artificial veneer, soak the
wood twenty-four hours and boil for all
hour IN a 10 per cent, solution of oaustic
soda. Then wash out the alkah, when
the wood will be elastic, leather-hke,
ready to absorb the desired color.
After immersion in the color bath, dry
between sheets of paper under sufficient
pressure to preserve the shape.
SIGNS OF ILLNEss.-One is never well
when he feels the following symptoms:
Thirst before breakfast and after tea.
cold feet ana hands, sour taste in the
mouth, dimness of vision, headache.
pains anywhere, sleepiness, feeling of
dirt III the eyes, heat in the ears. noises
in the head, loss of appetite, greedy to
eat, nausea of the stomach, pains in
the bowels; slightly sore throat, numb
ness OF the limbs, loss of smell and
taste, dots or specks before the eyes.
On appearance of these things abstain
from eating and drinking, as nearly as
possible, day or two, which viii re-
move all the trouble.

acute as that Of the horse, and. conse-
quently they work more steadily and
with less driving. For this reason
mules seldom run away with the impIe-
ments to which they are hitched. Thev
keep the corn row or the furrow much
better than horses, and once they COM
prehend what you want, and this they
do quickly, they will thenceforward
proceed with almost no driving.
1t is true mules are not naturally so
active as horses; still, they ere fully as
much SO as ordinary farm horses, and
the fact that they retain their full activ-
lty many years after horses are generally
worthless, is one Of the strongest points
IN their favor. Added to this ia the
tact that they viii live and keep in CON
ditlon on coarser feed than horses, and
that they stand the heat of our fervil
western SUNNI rs with comparatively
little Inconvenience, at the same time
they do not endure extreme cold wealth
or so we'll as horses, and for this reason.
the further north we go, the less mules
are appreciated.
One of the chief causes that has
served to bring mules into disrepute is
oIeNo fuliy hIh0 VA a. uldI0, no lDabUoT now
broken down Or diseased, is too often
thought good enough to breed mules
from. 1t is the produce of this class of
animals that has done more to bring
mule stock into disrepute than anything
else. -a- -.. ...fr
While mules will stand any amount of
heat, and revel in o sun power that
would quickly cause men and horses to
succumb, they certainly do not like
cold, and for this reason their winter
quarters should be made as warm as
as possible Give them "a really
warm stables, and when taken out for
work or driving they will be found sup
pie and active /; neglect this and you
may expect prematurely slow and lazy
mules, for they seldom perfectly recov-
er from severe chilling in winter. It re-
suits in rheumatism and other chronic
diseases.

Subsisting on Potatoes, Salt, and Tea.

/ correspondent to the Utica Observ-
Ell writes from Remsen, Oneida county,
to the following effect concerning the
habits of life persisted in by a citizen
of that place, without days deviation,
for period Of about sixty years: "The
individual referred to is a maiden lady,
between IS and 80 years old, and resi-
dent adjacent to this village from her
early childhood. There are differing
theories, and probably for the reason
that but few if any survive who knew
her as a child, accounting for her truly
remarkable abstemiousness. Be that as
it may, she has, during the whole time
indicated, partaken of no food or nour-
ishment save roasted potatoes, salt, and
tea, while all the time in the enjoyment
Of sound health. Her long life has
been one Of activity, industry, and use
fulness. She is a lady of culture and
refinement, and possessing abundant
means, and is benevolent, discreet, and
liberal in her charities, and though,
owing to the weight of years, she is not
erect in form, she is now, with the ex-
ception Of recent injury resulting in a
fall, as hale and hearty as is usual to one
of her years."

farm. The above is a transaction that
can be duplicated by any farmer if he
likes. There is nothing fancy about it.
