when it was discovered that there was az ar

the change, and also that the quarter was
just twenty-five cents more change than the
folks who cent The bill were entitled TO. The
boy was sent back TO return it, and of course
the ragged "fractionaf' was sent with him.
Entering the store and holding the ragged

A Clean Poultry.House.

A clean, sweet fowl-hOuse is very desir-
able thing. A building infested with vermn
is wretched place to confine fowls in; and
however generous may be their feed or the
attention given to their needs otherwise, the
neglect to keep the laying and roosting quar-
tiers free from lice oveibalance all attempts 10
maintain poultry in healthy condition.
Purity and cleanliness are absolutely essen
tial to the health and comfort of the fowls !;
guarding them from vermin, and rendering
even narrow quarters comparatively comfort
able. Whitewashing is one of the most i'm
portant aids to secure these results, and
should be performed twice year, Spring and
Autumn, at least, and oftener If necessary.
The best wash is made from fresh lime slack
ed with boiling water, 10 which is added one
ounce of carbolic acid TO every four quarts of
wash. Some say that the building should be
cleared of fowls, closed, and thoroughly fu-
migated by burning in it sulphur or tobacco
stems in an iron kettle, previous to white
washing, but we have not found this neces-
sary. Whitewashing every portion of the in
terror with the above mixture will do the
business. The lime, besides purifying the
building, covers unsightly stains on the walls,
and greatly improves the general appearance
of the room, While the acid destroys lice, feas,
and other vermin.-Times

Preserving Eggs for Winter.


For family use, in the cold months of the
year, when most kinds of fowls lay but few
eggs, and when the price of this desirable
edible, at retail. ranges from fifty to sixty
cents per dozen, it is well to have supply on
hand, and we receive frequently inquiries as
to how eggs may be s'laid down. or preserved
for this purpose.
Various plans are suggested or adopted,
but all modes heretofore invented have proved
more or less unsuccessful. A friend who has
practiced the following plan for many years,
informs us that he had no difficulty through
this simple method, in preserving eggs the
year through, and considers this the best.
In the summer after the Matching time is
passed, collect from thirty to fifty dozen Cor
buy them fresh, when eggs are fifteen 10
twenty cents per dozen,) and prepare liquid
thus: One pint of common salt, one pint of
lime, dissolve in four gallons of boiling water:
let it settle, and put the eggs into the liquid
in stone jars when cold. Cover the eggs en-
tirely in the liquid, and use stone, and not
soft crockery-ware jars. Thus embedded,
eggs will keep for twelve months, and come
out in good shape, though after all they will
not be equal to new laid eggs.-Lire Stock
