BEN WOODS, our good eating friend of Fillibuster Camp, sent us last Monday by that pleasant and gentlemanIy stage driver, Frank Norton, specimen, or rather two specimens of the efforts of one of his bullets. This ambitious young hen first produced a little sample about the size of a pigeon egg
 She cackeled considerably, but when she turned round and saw the size of the egg it did not satis- fly her, so she next produced an egg measuring in circumference eight inches by six l! Whose pull let can beat that ? These eggs are in the office of the SENTINEL, and any of our friends are invited to call and see them for one week after the date of this paper, after which time we intend to eat them. We hope Ben will take good care of that bullet, as we wish to procure few of that kind.

HOW TO FEED POULTRY.

Barn-yard fowls thrive best on a va
riety of food, and resemble swine in
their omniverous propensity. They read
lily devour nearly all kinds of grain and
most kinds of fresh meat. The grains
best adapted and generally used in feed
ing poultry are corn, wheat, oats and
buckwheat When these are given sep
arately they should be alternated daily
in order to insure variety. But the bet
ter way is to mix two or more kinds
before feeding. Mashed potatoes are
found to be a very nutritious and
healthy food, and, when mixed with
sour milk and bran, are well adapted to
bination may be fed warm once day to
all fowls, young and old, with excellent
effect. Chopped onions are eagerly rel
ished by most fowls, and may be given
several times week with great advan-
tage. The same is true of meat scrIps
and clover hay During winter either
meat scraps or other equivalent animal
food should be continually accessible.
la addition TO these hints on feeding
poultry it is pertinent to remind farmers
of the importance OF warm quarters,
cleanliness, ventilation and sunlight.
when these points are all duly attended
to there is no difficulty in having good
supply of eggs through the winter, or in
making poultry profitable through the
year.

SELLING CORN.

Sell no corn in the ear; have all you
sell shelled. A hand shelling machine
will answer if your crop is a small one :;
if large, get one to be worked by horse
power. Neither will it cost great deal.
and we are very certain that the cobs, if
crushed, steamed and fed to your cattle,
will be worth more to you in single
winter than the price of the corn shelter,
whether you get small or large one.
We believe there is one-third as much
nutriment in bushel of cobs as there is
in a bushel of grain, and we do know
that cows or oxen fed upon three pecks
of the steamed or crushed cobs, in addi-
tion to the usual quantity of hay or tops
of fodder, will keep fat. Then why
haul your cobs to market TO be given
bushel of cobs to the market as it does
bushel of corn. Shell your corn, leave
your cobs at home to nourish your cat
tie, and through them your land; and
where you now send one bushel of corn,
you will be able to transport two for the
same money Look at this subject fairly
in the face, consult economy, consult
the comfort of your cattle, consult the
wants of your soil, and you cannot fail
to take our advice. The above from
the American Farmer, states the cob
question rather strongly. There is, no
doubt, nutriment enough in the cob TO
pay for grinding it fine. with the corn,
and the price is usually enough better
to pay for shelling; but the cob has
never been placed, by analysis, at more
than ten per cent. of the value of the
grain.-Lipe Stock Journal.

THE RIPEyIyG OF CORN.

w. B. Prat: discusses an interesting
question in letter TO the EImira, y. Y.
Farmers Club:
tAliow me to dissent from the idea
somewhat current among your speakers
or writers, that to cut corn as soon as it
is glazed is to render the stalks innutri-
tious. They say the corn will ripen but
at the expense of the fodder Their
theory must suppose continual circu-
lation of the sap after the corn is cut,
whereas ] should as soon expect natu-
raj coursing of the blood in the veins of
the human body after the mans head
was off. The glazed corn Is sound when
dried, because it is matured The
smallest hard speck il the signal of ma
turity to the human eye. If immedi-
ately stripped and the partially hardened
kernels exposed to evaporation, they
will not be as plump as when protected
for time by the husks. And this is so
whether the ear is broken from the stalk
or not.
Take two ears of equal ripeness,
strip down the husks of one of them
while yet attached to the severed stock,
break off the other, but leave the husks
untouched, and the latter will come out
best, showing that it is not because the
kernel draws support from the stalk,
that it is plumper, but because of the
protection against too rapid drying
while partially soft that the husks giveit
''Let us reason from analogy: Millers
tell us that wheat is heavier and of bet
ter quality for -four if cut ten days be-
fore it is ripe. Who of your Club will
say that the early cut straw is worth
less for fodder than the latel If thirty
years experience have taught the writer
anything, it is that early cut oats are
brighter and heavier than those allowed
to stand till dead ripe. Which one of
your savans will say that early cut straw
is damaged for feeding by being drawn
from the shock, by the unhardened oats,
and that the dead ripe straw is of bet
ter quality? Does different law gov
ern corn and corn fodder2 If early
cutting gives the best results with the
former, why should it not with the lat
ter! 1t does, in my poor opinion, the
only disadvantage from the practice be-
ing that it makes slower and harder
