Standard Rules for Feeding.

Never place a large amount of coarse fod-
der before an animal at one time. Divide
each feeding into two or three feelings, but
make it continuous; that is, as fast as they
clean up what is before them, give little
more, until you think they have eaten enough
for one time; then clean the manger, and, if
you do not turn them out, allow them to stand
until the hour for the next feeding with moth
ing before them.
Have regular hours for giving the food, and
vary from them as little as possible. Do not
fall into the habit of giving little every time
you go into the stable, and especially avoid
the mistaken kindness of those who go out
and give last foddering just before they go
to bed at night. Go into the barn then, if
you will, and see that all is snug for the night ;
but do not offer any food then. Remember
that the night was not made for eating, but
for sleeping, and, unless absolutely necessary,
do not feed at unreasonable hours of evening
or morning. Apply these rules to all stock,
whether horses, oxen, sheep or swine, as well
as to the milch COWS.
See that the stables are well lighted, well
ventilated, and, for all excepting the sheep,
warm enough 80 that water will not freeze in
them upon the coolest day. Sheep bear cold
weather well, and require 80 much ventilation
that it is difficult to maintain the temperature
above freezing without having the air impure
aud unwholesome. See also that they have a
dry and soft bed upon which to sleep. Plen-
ty of bedding is us important to the animals
under your care as to yourself and a comfort
able nights rest is as necessary TO their thrift
as it is to your health.
Study the quality of food that you have
and, if it is not such as is adapted to the prod
uct that you desire, improve ii by the add
ton of such other material as will supply the
clement lacking in what you have. That is tc
say, if you are producing milk, without re-
| gard to quality, and you have hay of poor
| quality, such as you cut from low lands, OF
that which was over-rpe when cut, you mus
add to it roots, grain wheat bran, or othei
k-producing food. II you desire butter
use richer grain, good corn meal, or cotton
seed meal. The hitter is apt to make butter
a little oily. If fed with good hay, or Will
grass (but may be used with poor hay Of
straw, or may be mixed with an equal or great
err quantity of wheat bran in winter, its Of
feet would not be noticeable, unless to the
critical eye of some one who was looking fo
a strictly first-class article of gilt-edged but
| ter.
The same grains, in larger quantity, may b,
used in fattening stock if such be your bust
ness. Roots are not of much value for fat
tening purposes, when fed alone, unless larg,
amounts are fed but few of them giveI
daily when feeding grain will often largely in
crease the fattening quality of the grain
probably by increasing the digestive power
of the animal Perhaps this is even NOR

Boekeepors in the Northern siatos have
quite generally discarded houses built above
ground for the purpose of wintering bees. 1t
is found that to winter successfully, especially
indoors, tho temperature must be kept near
ly uniform at about 400 f. In house above
ground this is found to be difficult. If the
walls are not very thick the house becomes
too cold at times, unless a great number of
colonies are kept in it, in which case there is
great danger of the house becoming too warm,
especially in times of high temperature.
Hence nearly all our most successful beckccp-
ers now practice cellar wintcriug, in which,
through the influence of the earth, especially
il subcar ventilators are constructed, the
temperature is quite easily controlled. Mrs,
L. Il. Baker of Lansing, Mich, has practiced
this method throughout her very successful
experience, and has never lost a single colony.
Others prefer outdoor wintering, in which
the beesare kept either ina called chat hive,
which has double walls from four to eight
inches apart with the intervening space filled
with chat or else the ordinary hives are
surrounded by boards or box and the space
between, which should be a foot wide, is fill
ed with chat or straw. In both cases the
arrangements are such that the bees can fly
whenever the weather is warm enough TO in
duce fight. l think at the present time the
advocates of chat hives or packing and cellar
wintering are about equally divided in the
United States. - PREF 4. j. Cook, Michigan

Agricultural.


At the late meeting of the Connecticut
hoard OF agriculture, at New Britain, the sub
iect of agricultural education was discussed
at length by several distinguished speakers.
Prof b. &. Northrop, of the state board Of
education, said We should have simple talks
upon agricultural chemistry and the applca-
ton of science 10 agriculture, using suitable
text books in our common schools. Prof. $.
W. johnson also advocated the teaching OF
agricultural science in the common schools.
Similar views have been expressed by promi-
nent educators and agriculturists at public
meetings in various states, and through the
press.
As large share of the pupils in the COM
mon schools will become farmers, it seems
not unreasonable that the sciences having the
most direct application to agriculture as chem
istry and botany, should at least be legaized
in the common schools. There is especial
force to this reasoning when applied to the
state of Vermont, because we have a larger
proportion Of our population engaged in
farming than any other eastern state More
than half of all the pupils in the common
schools of this state are the sons and daugh
tiers of farmers aud most of them are destin-
cd to follow the same occupation. The ma
jority viii never attend any other than the
common school, and that such of them as are
SO disposed should have an opportunity of
acquiring there some knowledge of the sci
ences especially adapted to their calling, is
not asking too much. So much is practicable,
provided teachers can be obtained compe-
tent to give instruction in such branches
The trouble is that not one-hRlf the common
school teachers are well qualified to give in
struction in the branches that the law now re-
qures to be taught; but if higher qualihca-
tons were required, they might be more COM
potent to teach the common branches. Teach
ers Ignorant Of every science outside of the
common school studies have not the best prep
aration for teaching these. The usual com
mon school studies would suffer no detrimcut
at the hands of teacher competent to in
struct in other branches.
1t appears from the statistical report of the
state superintendent of education that about
five out of every six schools in this state are
under the charge Of female teachers. The
teaching of practical agriculture by these
school-mshessos, in the sense that some might
understand it, would certainly be an absurd
idea; but it may be practicable to have the
elementary principles of chemistry aud the
science of botany taught in our common
schools from textbooks adapted to such use.
We believe that an agricultural text book has
been recommended and made a legal study in
the common schools of at least one state.

After the lecture DIR. Greasy was surrounded

went away hungry. There has probably new

Windham is the fourth county in the state
for the production of maple sugar. Caledo-
MIA county makes the most; Washington
county comes next, and Orleans county third
These four counties make about one-seventh
part of all the maple sugar produced in this
country. Our state makes nearly one-third
of the whole product of all the states. In q
good season Windham county makes about
1000, 900 pounds, worth at ten cents pound
100000. 1t is usually all made within four
or five weeks. 1t is the most profitable work
done on many Vermont farms. There are
not few farms in this county where the in
come from the sugar lot is more than from all
the rest of tho place. The price of maple
sugar is not affected to any extent by the va
riations in the amount of the product in diff
ferent seasons, because all that is made in the
best seasons bears so small a proportion to
the total consumption of cane sugar. All the
maple sugar made in the state is only about
one two-hundredth part of the whole amount
used in this country. The price of the poor
err qualities of maple sugar is governed by the
price of cane sugar; but the nice syrup, OF
cakes having the delicious flavor of new ma.
pie, will continue to be in demand at a good
price, as a luxury, without being much affect
ed by the market for cane sugar.

How many are there, who, after lifetime
of steady unremitting toll, find themselves no
richer in land or money than when they be-
gan. Other causes may have led to such dis
couraging results but if the drain OF liquid
manures from their barnyards had been
checked when they began farming, very
many of these unsuccessful ones would have
been as prosperous as their more provident
naigbhora
