Feeding Fowls Properly.

Most persons take it for granted
that they, at least, "know how to
feed chickens" and almost every
body has different way of doing 1t.
My father used to say "a boy who
eats well will work WE'LL" and fowls
must be taught to eat well-not to be
overfed, however, or crammed, but
provided with variety of food to
such an extent rs to create an appe-
lite for something continually. a
LAYING hen is perfect mill, and
while her usefulness lasts, should
always be kept grinding. i do not
mean by that to keep box OF FOOD
before her continually, for what boy
would care very much for a pump
kin pie if huge pie was kept at his
side continually? The point to be
gained is to keep the fowl eating,
and keep her hungry, too; hence the
necessity of variety. Let corn, oats,
cracked corn, wheat screenings, meal
pudding, rye, soaked crackers, buck
wheat, Nc, follow each other in sue
cession, and for side dishes and des-
sert, supply chopped bones (if direct
ly from the butcher, with some meat
on them, so much the better), and, il
confined, plenty of green food; If
near the water, pounded shell-iish
(shells and ally and crabs chopped
fine. BY so doing, your fowls are
not required to eat the same thlng
more than twice each week, and the
result is, they always have good ap,,
petitcs, thrive well, and the grand
result is at once achieved--plenfy OF
eggs and healthy fowls.

Dizziness.


Mr.. Gunther says sheep are often
observed to describe eccentric cir
cles for whole hours, and then step
forward pace, then again stop, ana
turn round again. The older the dis
ease, the more the animal turns, I'M
I'll at length II docs il even in trot.
The appetite goes on diminishing,
emaciation becomes more and more
perceptiblc, and the state of exhaus-
tion terminates in death. On open
ing the skin, there are met, either be-
meath the bones of the Uranium, or
beneath the dura mater, or in the
brain itself, hydatids varying in num-
Der and size, sometimes a single one,
often from three TO six, and size OF
which varies according as these
worms occupy the right or left, the
sheep turns to the right or left; but
If they exist on both sides, the turn
ing takes place to the one and the
other adequately.
The animal very often does not
turn, which happens when the worm
is placed on the median line; then
the affected animal carries the head
down, and though IL seems to move
rapidly II does not change place
When the hydatid is situated ON the
posterior part of the brain, the ami
nal carries the head high, runs
straight forward, and throws itsell
on every object il meets.
Treatment. Take powdered worm
seeds, one ounce; powdered SUI
phur, half an ounce powdered char
coal, two ounces linseed or flaxseed

parts and feed one every morning

hill was passed by the solid vote of

deliberately taken, in the new revo-

Democratic leaders. Il is an open,
shameless effort TO wrest from The
President his constitutional right to
