How Catch n Sheen.

There is right way to do everything.
Clumsy catching and handling is always ipju-
rious to sheep, and hard on the party doing
the work. The injury resulting from improp-
erihandling is greater ON ewes heavy with
lamb, which are about the only class that
need to be caught until tagging and sheariug
time. 1t hurts sheep to be caught or lifted
by the wool, and such thing should never
be done where it can be avoided A portion
of the flock to be caught should be driven into
pen until it is pretty well filled, though Tot
crowded. The party doing the catching
should proceed quietly, frightening the sheep
as little as possible, and when near enough to
the animal he desires TO catch, should grasp
its hind leg above the hook, when ii pretty
hrm grip is held, very little kicking can ensue.
linen be should pass the other hand in front
OF the breast, which gives him every advan-
tage over the animal. II it is desired to carry
Inc sheep any considerable distance, he should
lei go the hind leg, and pass the right arm
over tne pack, Just behind the shoulders,
with the hand under the brisket. when.
STOPPING little, the sheep is raised on the
hip. If these movements are made with pre-
cision and celebrity. the sheep is off its feet be-
fore it is allowed chance to struggle. An
easy way to carry a sheep for shorter dis
lance is, after lifting it, as above, to take a
hind leg with the free hand, which brings the
sheep Immediately in front, with its back
pressed closely against the man. This posi-
ton will be found quite necessary when the
animal is to be lifted over fence, or into
wagon. If it is desired only to move the an
imal from one pen to another, it need not be
lifted at all, but with the first grip over the
hamstring it may be gently drawn backward
to the entrance, and turned with the left
hand before being reeased.-Nationdl Liue

SIN answer to subscriber, who inquiries
how to keep cider sweet without che aid OF
chemicals, we would say: Fill the barrels
that are to contain the cider entirely full, and
leave out the bungs until the first fermenta-
tion is Eoven as the impurities will largely
work out of the bung-hole There should be
some cider kept in another vessel to pour into
the barrels from time to time as their contents
settle. After the impurities cease to come
over and no more gas escapes in bubbles. the
bungs should be pat in place, but not driven
in for few days, or else small Spite hole
should be made OH one side of the bung as a
safety escape, in case more gas rises. In the
course of a few days the cider should be care
fully racked off from the sediment, and it is
also well to strain it through flannel. Cider
thus treated and put in barrels which are
bunged tight, will keep sweet a long time if
the barrels are put in cool place. As soon,
however, as vent is made in the barrels for
the purpose of drawing off the cider, it will
begin to sour. To prevent this the cider,
when racked off, may be put in quite small
casks or demi,johns, as these may be emptied
in turn, without the contents becoming too
sour to be pleasant drink. Cider may be
kept in good condition even in large quanti-
ties if a quart of pure, refined linseed or olive
oil be poured in at the bung. This oil, by
spreading over the top of the cider, will pre-
vent the air from coming in contact with it,
and thus keep it sweet. After the cider has
mostly been drawn out for use, the oil may
be decanted aud saved for another year, or it
may be used for other purposes. By putting
cider, treated as above into pop, champagne
or other strong bottles, and securing the cork
with wire or strong cord it may be preserved
perfectly. Cider thus kept will be most
pleasant drink next spring and summer. 1t
will sparkle when poured out, and is fully
equal to the inferior kinds of champagne.
The bottles, when filled, should rest on their
sides on the cellar bottoms, or be inverted,
the necks being plunged in sand to keep them
erect.-Prdirie Farmer.

There can be no doubt that the present
high price of meat, both at home and abroad,
is beginning to attract attention, and that this
offers an extra inducement to our farmers to
raise better stock and more of it. These high
prices are caused of course by the increasing
demand. The population of all our principal
cities has been largely augmented within the
past few years, and not only of the cities, but
suburban towns and villages. The last census
showed that we had then to feed population
throughout the Dominion of about million
more than we had ten years before. Similar
remarks apply to Britain and other European
countries which have now, do what they will,
to import large lots annually to supply their
home consumption. 1t is in view of this fact
that Canadian Company Las recently been
organized ia Shel brook. Quebec, for the sole
purpose of purchasing and slaughterng Can
ada cattle, and shipping the prime joints to
England. That company will employ over
200 hands, and slaughter 400 animals week.
Since Confederation too, our animal exports
have more than more than doubled, as may
be seen by the following:
The Portland daily press., 1875-11-24
Winfering E0aIs.

The season is now approaching when the
proper treatment of spring toals. during the
winter season, is an important question for
the consideration of the breeder, and to this
end we suggest the following as embodving
the result of long and successful experience.
1t may be set down as a well-settled point
that they should be well-kept and protected
from the storms of winter, but this does not
imply that they should be constantly housed
up and pampered with heating grain. Like
all other young and growing animals, they
require an abundance of fresh air and exer-
else, and should have free opportunity OF in
dulging in the gambols, and frolics, and races
to which their nature prompts them, and
which is so essential in order to properly dis
tend the lungs, swell the veins, invigorate the
entire system, and make a hardy, healthy,
active horse.
Give muscle and bone forming food in
abundance, but feed corn sparingy, and, if
at ALL only in the coolest weather. Oats and
wheat, bran and grass, and hay in abundance
will make the colt grow; and exercise, with
protection from severe storms, will keep him
healthy. If il is indispensable that he should
run out and take all the storms as they come,
which, by the way, 'should never be permitted,
give more corn with the feed, as that pro-
duces fat, which is protection from the
cold.
Were we to be compelled to chose between
the two extremes of close confinement, with
high feeding on heating grain, and no exer-
else, and the other of running at large in the
fields, exposed to the merciless storms of Win
ter, with free access to the corn crib, we
should unhesitatingly take the latter course
as likely to develop the barber, healthier,
stouter horse, because we regard the oppor-
tunity for abundant exercise as absolutely es-
sential to healthy, harmonious development
in all young animals. But generous feeding
is not all incompatible with plenty of exercise
and such course of treatment will bring the
youngster through the Winter in perfect
health, with constitution unimpaired, and
growth unchecked. Wilkes' Spirit.
The Portland daily press., 1875-11-24

From this it may be pretty safely averred
that at no distant period the value of our
stock exports will be considered of greater
Importance than that OF the exports of grain
and other produce of the farm. In 1878 alone
this Dominion exported 25,637 head of cattle,
$685. hogs, and 315, 1892 sheep: whilst the inn
ports during the same time were 2,757 head
Of cattle, g. 600 hogs, and only 5770 sheep
showing thus money-value difference in
favor of our exports of $1,504, 1858, and this
not taking into account at all horses or poul-
try, which again shows a difference in our
favor of $944,614. With continuation of
such traffic-and it not only continues but
increases as we observe from year to year
meat must still rise in price. 1t therefore
behooves our agriculturists to turn their az
tention more rgidly than ever to stock farm
ing. Many portions of Canada are admira,
bly, adapted to it, and with good stock, well
tended and provided, we see nothing to him
der our farmers enrching themselves and
bene6ttng meat-hungry humanity at one
and the same time.-- Canada Farmer.

this end, they should be numbered, aud when
brought out, they can be placed where they
are TO remain.
If the box hives are 10 be housed, place
sticks an inch square (readily made by split
ting board of the right lengthy, upon the
shelves, and set the hives upon them, either
inverted, or with ample ventilation at the
top.
When the combs can be vertical, the best
position is on the side. When all the perma-
nent shelves are full, put in temporary ones
until one hundred hives are deposited, wnlch
are as many as shonld be kept in one apart
ment The movable comb hives should be
SETON sticks about half as large. But lew OF
the holes need be open in the money poard,
for ventilation, as the air can pass over the
top of all the frames. When over one hun
dred are put in one room, they are apt to
make the air too warm, in consequence OF
which the bees become uneasy, and some get
out and are lost. If the least ray of light is
admitted, they will go to it, and lose their
hive. A small number-less than thirty hives
will not keep up the requisite warmth, and
there is more needof combining the animal
heat to each hive; this retains more of the
moisture. 1t is better to reduce the size of
the room in proportion to the number. A
few in large room viii not do as well as in
one Just large enough TO hold them. They
should be examined occasionally throughout
the Winter to see that all is right, but dis
turbed as little as possible. Perhaps when
very cold, less air will be needed, than when
moderate. Quinaby's Bee-keepang.

A November Problem.
BY THOMAS HILL.

While the cars roll smoothly on, gaze
Toward the glowing evening sky;
Does form, or color, charm me most?
In the landscape fitting by.
The marshes stretch their grassy sea
mid wooded isle and shore;
And swelling knoll and hill repeat
The landscape DER and DER.
Each forest pine and fir tree points
Its finger still on high;
The white birch decately spreads
Its twigs against the sky.
The triple bar of narrow clouds,
Low arching all the west,
Seems motienless as leaf and tree;
Ali nature stands at rest.
Between those ruddy, golden bars
How soft the emerald hue!
What harmony of glowing tints
Leads upward to the blue!
The marshes and the fields are clothed
In quiet robes of gray;
But rich the rosy-purple blush
Upon the birchen spray
How thrilling was that sudden fash
of crimson light, which broke,
As the golden radiance through it streamed,
From passing grove of oak!
While thus clouds. woods and fields sweep on
Before my moistened eye,
Does form, or color, move me most?
In the landscape hurrying by.
The Eternal Thought in formis seen,
The Eternal Love in color glows;
Love prompts the thought thought guides the love,
And thus from both one influence flows,

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Wiuteriug Bees.


Bees being natives of warm climate, need
some assistance in maintaining healthy con-
dition throughout the Winter. Let us see if
we cannot keep them warm, save the bees,
economic honey, and at the same time get
rid of the excess of moisture. A large family
expels it much better than small one.
When large number of colonies are put
together in close room, the animal heat,
from all combined, is an advantage-to the
weak ones, at least. Yet the moisture is con-
densed in large drops, and can be seen on the
is quite certain to mold the combs, and must
be disposed of. Ample vents can be opened
on the top, or the hive inverted. Any one can
see that while the vapor is warm from the
bees, it will all pass off, or so much of it,
that the combs will not mold. At the same
time enough is diffused throughout the atmos-
phere of the room to answer all the require
ments of the bees. Twenty years experience
has proved this principle correct.
One hundred colonies in any kind Of wood
en- hives, cannot be wintered more safely and
economically, than in warm room. What
mean by economically is, with the least con-
large enough to conveniently contain the
number OF hives to be wintered.
small one in the dwelling house, or some
0ut-Duiiding, or warm dry cellar may be
used. l have wintered them in all these
places, and prefer the latter.
Ii were now to construct a room for this
particular purpose, and could have Just what
! wanted, it would not differ materially from
one now use. 1t is cellar under barn on
a side hill, where the ground descends lust
enough to make the entrance level with the
floor, size 20x30, with the hay-mow directly
over it. Ten feet from the back end there is
partition, and two feet forward of that, an
other, enclosing dead air space, which will
prevent all sudden changes OF outside tenn
perature from being felt within. Several days
OF warm or of very cold weather, will occur,
before the difference is noticed by the bees.
The walls are simply plastered, but should be
laid in lime mortar to keep out rats and mice.
The bottom is cemented thoroughly, and the
Top lathed and plastered. A tube four inches
square is put in on one side near the bottom,
ioi Ine admission of air, and another at the
10Y, 10y It's exit, both covered with wire-c.oth

around the sides of such a room, arrange
snelVes at proper distances, one above anoth-
er, upon winch to set the hives, If the cellar
is very Dry, some hives may be set on a board
On tie floor.
The bees should be allowed the benefit Of
flying out on all warm days at the end of the
season, and should not be put into Winter
quarters until Winter is positively at hand.
Also, it is much better TO remove them en- a
cool than on warm day. 1t is an advantage,
but not all-important, that each hive occupies
Its Old stand when set out in the Spring. To
