LeghOrn Fowls in England.

A Warwickshire correspondent of the Lon
don Live Stock Journal gives the following
facts as to the merits of Leghorns as layers
and for early maturity:
From time to time, in the show reports of
the various journals have noticed Leghorns
disparagingly spoken Of the great complaint
being in want of size. Now, the most val
liable point in this breed is its astonishing
reproduction, and, during the past three
years that l have kept and watched them,
it has appeared quite evident to me that the
medium sized hens (Which, in the show-pen
would be called small) lay the most frequent
ly and the largest eggs
Whilst on the subject Of eggs, / will give
you a record of my supply during the past
nine months. My stock consists of ten pull
lets, Matched in February and March 1879
and three two-year-old hens, with two cocks
These two pens were selected with q view to
breeding for show, and not for egg-supply,
which, think, makes a differences
Total quantity of eggs from Oct. l, 1879,
to June 80, 1SS0.......................2,4 3O
Daily average from the ID hens............ 10
Average per hen in the months...... 1856
1t must be noted that this supply is through
the winter months, and that the average
would probably be greater for the whole year.
must state that they were well and carefully
fed, but only housed in homemade wooden
sheds, in very exposed position, on a cold
clay soil
The next best point of the Leghorn is its
extreme hardness. Matched my first brood
of eight on the 9TH of January and second
lot of five the following week. Up to the
| present time have Matched 173 chickens in
my own yards. Out of this number l have
lost 32 by cats, rats, and hens crushing but
not one by disease. These chickens have
been fed every two hours upon a mixture OF
Spratt's, oAt and barley meals, with a last feed
of sound wheat or rice at 10 p NJ, by candle

FARM NOTES.

The southern counties OF Minnesota, once
estimated the best wheat country west of the
Mississippi river have had so many failures
in their harvests that stock growing is taking
the place of wheat-raising.
1t does not follow because a COW is of pure
breed and fine symmetry that it is the most
profitable TO the farmer or dRiryman. A mix
ed breed is frequently more satisfactory and
advantageous, taking into account the outlay
f. d. Barton, Esq, Of Waltham, Addison
county, is building what is said to be the lArg-
est barn in Vermont Tho dimensions are :
main part, 9Gx50 feet posts, 334 feet long,
with a 9-foot (high) basement below rafters,
30 feet. Wing, l0Sx40; posts, 20 feet; raf-
tiers, 30 feet.
The first trial of sheep dogs in this country
is to take place at Philadelphia next month,
in connection with the Pennsylvania State
fair. Each dog will be required to take five
sheep from pen, drive them certain dis
lance, and pen them. The shepherd may fol-
low or precede the sheep, but he will not be
allowed to assist the dog, though he can com
mand him by voice or gesture.
Somebody who claims to know says that
flies may be effectuslly disposed of without
the use of poison, in the following manner
Take half a teaspoonful Of black pepper in
powder, one teaspoonful Of brown sugar and
one IehhpOOuIul Oh CREAM. NIX lueLn Wen To-
gether and place on plate in room where
the flies are troublesome, and the pests win
very soon disappear
The first nan to experiment with ensilage
in Vermont, that we have seen reported, is
Samuel b. Pierce of Weathersfeld, residing
Just below Fechville. He is building q ''silo
for curing corn fodder on the ensilage plan.
His 'silo" is to be IL feet square and 10 feet
high, built of stone and cement aud intended
to hold the fodder from two acres OF corn.
His neighbors are waiting with much interest
the result of the experiment.
California has to market her great wheat
crops by sending the grain around Cape Horn
in sailing vessels, and the president of the
San Francisco produce exchange declares that
canal across the isthmus would make a diff
ference of 81 600, 900 year in favor of the
wheat growers, on n surplus of 100000 tons.
A Maryland farmer, who was destroying
potato bugs by boiling them, accidentally dis,
covered that articles dropped in the water
were oolored brilliant scarlet, and he now
proposes to form a company to make a dye
from potato bugs.

CANNING FRUIT.-There is nothing either
mysterious or wonderful in the process Of
preserving fruit in cans. Thorough heating
destroys all the spores of fermentation, while
perfect sealing excludes them. Only one 9TH
err precaution is necessary, and that is to avoid
sudden heating or cooling Of the cans A
little common sense will prevent breakage and
consequent loss. Sometimes when the can
has been sufficiently warmed, and no danger
is apprehended, au ominous click" will tell
of vacuum formed underneath touch
with cold, wet towel, dash of cold water,
and sometimes merely moving the filed can
against cool surface, will crack it, The
knowledge why glass will break and the ex-
ercise of a little judgment, will prevent all
such disasters.
Good rubbers are necessary, or hermetic
sealing is impossible. Care must be taken,
too, that none of the fruit seeds are under or
upon the rubber; that tho ring is screwed
tightly over n carefully adjusted top and, as
the glass contracts, that it is frightened two or
three times As to the cans, prefer Mason
gass-top fruit jar far above all others. Those
with porcelain tops are much inferior in my
estimation, as the zinc in constant contact
with moisture, will corrodo so badly some
times that its removal is almost impossible
When the glass top is used, the rings can
be removed after the fruit is cold if the toy
is secure, the contents are all right, otherwis,
the fruit can be heated before fermentation
takes place OGUe 4. OsterhOut IN C0untrS

MULcmSG PoTAToEs.- pays to mulch
potatoes. Straw pretty well rotted makes
about as good general covering as anything.
If the ground needs fertility, coarse manure
is preferable. Any coarse material-weeds,
swamp grass unrotted straw-has its good
effect. Apply as soon as the cultivator is
Withdrawn. The benefit is more than is usu-
ally supposed. Itkeeps the ground moist and
cool-two conditions essential to the best sue
cess of this plant. Weeds also are kept
down the ground retains its mellowness, the
mulch preventing the rain from packing it
and the sun from baking it, and, when work
ed for the next crop, will be found to be in n
decidedly improved condition, the mulch by
that time being decayed and mixing with the
soil. The soil win be cleaner richer aud mel
lower.

light. After they have finished their morn
ing's milk, they have constant supply OF
fresh water.
In very cold or wet weather, sulphate Of

cascarilla bark and aniseod with the moist
food. Chickens all Matched under hens

are constantly cooped for the first six weeks.
Dry ash beds, with little Calvorts disinfect-

have also over 100 chickens Matched and
being reared at two farms, and have not
heard Of n single death from disease, though,
of course, they are not fed or cared for in the
same way my own are. Both tho farmers
wives tell me the chicks are much more hardy
than their own cross-bred ones.
Tho quickness of growth and early MATURE
ty of Leghorns is really astonishing, and, to
those unacquainted with the breed, almost
incredible. Out of my FIRST brood, one pullet
laid its first egg on May 18th, and by the end
of the month l had four laying. OF these
two early broods 1 sent brown cockerel and
a white pullet to the Bath and West Of Eng
land Show, held at Worcester on the LIST of
June. They each took n second prize in the
variety chicken class, the first prize in each
case going to Dorking.
