Cooked Food for Hens.

A writer. states in the Poultry
Standard that people would better
understand this matter if they con-
slider for n moment n hen to be, as
she is, a small steam engine with an
egg-laying attachment, and that there
must be a constant supply of feed and
pure water to keep the engine and
attachment up to its work. In addi-
ton to keeping before hens that have
complete liberty, q constant supply of
pure water. winter and summer,
have found during the cool and cold
weather of fall, winter and spring. a
dough compounded as follows, fed
n day and then intermitted for two
days, to produce excellent effect:
To three gallons of boiling water
add one-half an ounce of common
salt, a teaspoonful of cayenne pepper
and four ounce of lard. Stir the
mixture until the pepper has impart-
ed considerable of its strength to the
water. Meantime the salt will have
been dissolved and the lard melted.
Then, while yet boiling hot, stir in a
meal made of oats and corr ground
together in equal proportions, until a
thick mush is formed. Before feeding,
taste to see that you have an over.
dose neither of salt nor pepper, and
to prevent the hens from being i'm.
posed upon by a mixture not fit to be
eaten, nor so hot with pepper that
you could not swallow it.

Ottu,nwa Markets.

During the week last past the cleo
ton has absorbed 50 much of the pub
lie attention that the markets have
been almost altogether lost sight of
in tho general hunt after election
news. The weather, also, has added
very materially to the advance
which, is more particularly Wis
ible in the feed and produce market.
Hay. both praiaie and timothy, have
advanced, and the supply isl..not yet
equal to the demand. The demand
for corr has also caused an advance
of ) cents per hushel, while in oats
the demand is less remarked, al
though a small advance is noticed.
The price paid for hogs has declin
ed slightly, although an advance may
be looked for provided the weather
should continue cold. Cattle and
sheep both bearing better prices all
around, except cows. which are quot
able at a few cents per hundred low
er. 1t will be noticed that the price
of hides in some respects is much
better, while wool remains stationary
at previous quotations. The quota
tons below are the prices paid TO-
day:

The Hog Cholera.

DR.. Delmers, the Missouri Com
missioner, appointed by the Board of
Agriculture, to make an investigation
of the disease which has been desig-
mated as the hog cholera, in his re-
port, concludes with the following
remarks:
"Finally, I wish to say a few words
in regard to a hygiene mistake COM
mitted on almost every farm in the
West. / refer to the practice of feed
Ing the swine almost exclusively with
corn, a practice which certainly isnot
calculated to produce healthy and
vigorous animals, but which neccs-
sarily must result, rs can be easily
shown, in weakening the organism,
and in creating a predisposition to
disease. How much or how little this
practice has contributed in producing
the now prevailing epizootic influenza
of swine, | am not prepared to de-
eide. / have, however, reasons TO
suppose that this practice has not
been without influence.
To give medicine TO a healthy ami
NAL is, under all circumstances, a bad
practice, f'aught with injury. and
should not be done unless il is
intended TO destroy injurious inlu-
ences. To use medicine for The pur-
pose of strengthening the constitution
Of an animal Ia simply folly, as just
the opposite will be the result. But
to the point: I am confident the cpl
zootic influenza Of swine, or the dis
ease improperly called hog cholera,
will cease TO make its appearance, or
at any rate, will become a very rare
occurrence, and will lose its ~epizootic
character, If, first, every large herd
Of swine is divided into several herds
or lots, each containing three or four
animals If, secondly, each lot IS pro-
vided with a comfortable pen OF
place to sleep in, which is free from
filth, dust and manure. is well vcntil-
atcd and provided with a good roof
If, thirdly, every hog or pig has a
cess several times a day, or as often
as temperature, weather and circnm-
stances require, to fresh, clear water
for drinking and bathing, either in 4
large trough or in brook, creek oil
strcamlct if, fourthly, no filth, man
ure, or dirt is allowed to accumulate
in any o fthe stycs, yard, hog lots OF
pasture in which the hogs or pigs are
kept; and II, finally, hogs or pigs
receive always a suitable variety o.
sound and healthy food, which is no
soilcd with dirt or manure.

On Keeping Cider Sweet.

The Massachusetts Plormaa. on be-
ing asked if there is anything that
will keep cider sweet. and not hurt
the flavor of it, replies pretty much
NJ we have found cider when treated
for that purpose, namely. that the ci-
der was sweet, but il was very much

Bulgaria has on several occasions fig
ured in history as the scene of ''atroc-
tiles" no less horrible than those late
" committed by the Bashi-B azouks.
The Greek Emperor Basillius III. IA

he ordered $4,000 Bulgarian prisoners
to have their eyes put out, a few only
being left with one eye, in order that

Gothic settlers in Bulgaria. The
much praised Emperor, Claudius H.,
gives the following account of this
massacre in a letter cited by the his

us to Brochus: We have destroyed
100000 Goths, and sunk 1900 ships.
The rivers are covered with shields,
their banks with spears and pixies and
the fields with bones; no road is free
from blood, the huge barricadc OF
wagons is deserted; and we have
captured so many women that each of
our c%onqucring soldiers can take two
or three for his share"
