appointments, with Dut Few eXcePtlon5, are
suggestive Of colonial times, and the piece
throughout is marked by q careful attention
TO detail that reflects great credit on the man
agement.
An effort is being made by the dry goods
merchants to form an association. and several
meetings have already been held in Mechanics
Hall to further that movement The idea OF
those directly interested in this movement is
to have trade.rooms or apartments in an eli
gible location, kept in good order, and having
oil the modern accessories Of such institu-
tons. The only salaried officer Of this asso-
citation will be the secretary, whose duty will
be to look after the credits of buyers, keep
the run of fraudulent dealers and Of failures,
and have record Of all things for the inspec-
ton of the members. In New York city there
is q stock association, which obtains
for its subscribers certain privileges they can
not get on their individual account. 1t costs
twenty-five dollars year to belong to it, but
Z member, among other privileges, can obtain
railway tickets at twenty-five per cent dis
count on regular prices, An equal or larger
discount on hotel prices, and can send their
telegraph messages at ten per cent below the
regular rates. Said prominent merchant to

The Poultry Farms.

At this season of the year there is natural
ly an Increased interest in the poultry yard,
though we think the plan ought to be to
treat fowls in such a manner as to have them
lay in winter, at a time when eggs are the
highest price. With eggs at forty or fifty
cents dozen there is some sense in having a
few dozen day, and that the thing is practi-
cable we know from one or two instances
that have came under our observation the
past winter. 1t has been done, and it can be
done again.
There is now widespread interest in the
subject, and we hope, instead of being a
temporary fever, it will 60 on hopefully till
the poultry interest takes its natural and rel
alive position in the rank of farm labors. As
compared with other countries, this depart.
ment has been neglected, but of late years it
has fast grown in popularity. The French
have always produced greater number of
fowl and far finer ones than we have, poultry
forming an important part of the live stock
OF the farmer, and it is said the poultry yard
supplies more food to the masses than the
butchers shops; while in Egypt and other
countries of the East from time immemorial.
vast numbers of chickens have been Matched
in ovens by artificial heat to supply the de-
mand for poultry. In this country, however,
poultry breeding has been neglected, eggs are
dear, and all kinds of poultry so great lux
uTy tudt tHc IUWcT CLASS SeluOm III ever taste
it, except in the shape of a Christmas turkey
or goose, while hundreds of thousands can
not afford even this.
It is great mistake feeding our cattle up-
on corn and grudging it to our poultry; al
though the return from the former is gen.
orally admitted is not over five per cent. be-
yond the value of the corn consumed, where
as an immense percentage can be realized by
feeding poultry. While it takes five years to
fatten an OK to the weight of 1900 pounds,
which will bring $120, the same sum can be
realized in five months by feeding an equal
amount OF poultry for the table. A man
who expects good return of flesh and eggs
from fowls insufficienty fed and cared for, is
like miller expecting to get meal from a
neglected mill, to which he does not supply
grain.
1t becomes an interesting wonder every
year why rural cottagers of this country do
not rear fowls almost universally, seeing how
little the cost and how great the demand.
Wherever there is family living on potatoes
or better fare, and grass growing anywhere
near them, it would be worth while to nail
up a little house and make nests of clean
straw, and go in for a speculation in eggs

and chickens. Seeds, worms ard insects go
gIea. way IN ieeaing poultry IN sucn places
from the heap: and the outside cabbage
leaves and the scraps of all sorts, and these,
with very small purchases of inferior grain
and little meal, would be all that would be
necessary.
To those who are breeding poultry we
would say, keep only good, healthy, vigorous,
well bred fowls, whether you keep them to
produce eggs or chickens or both. The i'll
bred, mongrel fowls which are commonly
kept, are the most voracious, and consume
larger quantities of food without turning it
it to any account, while we'll bred fowls eat
less and quickly convert their food into fat,
flesh and eggs.-Mass. PIoughmdn..
