ANIMAL FooD FOR Fowls IN WINTER.
If we would have eggs in winter, animal
food for laying hens is matter of prime
importance. "A variety of grains, with
green food, in the shape of cabbages or
roots, will, if the other conditions arc favor.
able, give some eggs. But regular aud
large number Of eggs can Only be had with
constant supply Of animal food. One rea-
son why eggs are so abundans in the early
spring and summer is the full supply of in.
sect food that fowls fnd in the open air and
the grass, after long abstinence in their
winter quarters. 1t is somewhat difficult
matter for the average farmer to supply an.
imal food to his fowls, especially if he lives
remote from the shore. The wastes OF the
table, scraps of meat, and skinned mii
too often 60 to the pigs, the dog, and tn,
cat. The most economical source of sup
ply is these table wastes, and if we could in
quite too many cases kill of tho dog and
add his carcass to the ratfons for the hens
it would be double gain, for there would
| be gain in the ncighborhood of the SUP
ply Of mutton, wool, and lambs.

ONION GRowING.--Thc New York
Times, in answer to correspondent, says
of onion growing
"Onions will thrive in any light soil, but
do best upon newly drained reclaimed swamp
land, with black vegetable soil. A rich
sandy loam is the next to be chosen. The
best fertilizer is well rottcd horse manure
night soil is good for them Peruvian
guapo, superphospbate Of lime, and plaster
arc also very beneheia}. To produce good
crop Of good sized bulbs, the soil should be
rich, and this crop does better every sue
ceeding year that it is grown on the samo
soil. The cause of onions growing to tops
(scalious.I in place Of bulbs, is want of
manure, and, perhaps, poor seed because
seed; beeause seed grown on poor soil, and
bore by poor ohious, win produce poor
onions. The seed should be planted early
in the spring. White onions are in greater
demand for picking aud cooking than red
ones they are equally proESc, bat arc not
so hardy as the red Onions are srowa IN
rows a foot apart and three inches apart in
the rows. They may be grown to touch
and crowd each other in the ground if tha
soil is good enough"

How TO DRIvE AWAY RATs.-A writ
cr in treating of this question gives sim
pie plan by which any ono can rid his pre-
misses of rats, and keep the verniu away,
permanently. lie says: ave clear cur
premises of these detestible vermn by max
ing whitewash yellow with copperas, and
covering the stones and rafters in the cellar
with it. In every crevice in which rat
may tread We put the crystals Of copperas,
and scatter the same III tho corners OF the
floor. The result was q perfect stampede Of
rats and mice. Since that time not loot
fall of either rat or monse has been heard
about the house. Every spring coat Of
yellow wash is given the cellar as purifier,
us on extermina,or, and no typhoid, dyscn-
terry or fever attacks the family. Many
persons deliberately attract all tho rats in
the neighborhood by leaving fruit and
vegetables uncovered in the cellar, and
sometimes even the soap grease is left open
for their regalement. Cover up everything
eatable in the cellar and pantry, and you will
soon have them out. These precautions,
joined to the service Of good cat, will
prove as good rat exterminator as chemists
can provide. We never allow rats to be
poisoned in our dwelling they arc so liable
to die between the walls and produce
much annoyance"

A RUNAWAY TRAIN.-Thc most hair
raising episode that ever happened to New
Mexican mountain railway train fell to the
lot OF Conductor Blcssingham Thursday af.
ternoon, at o'clock, on tho west slope of
Glorietta summit. The train comprised
nearly thirty loads, and as it entered upon
the descent Jake Brown, the engineer,
threw OH the water-brakc, but found that it
was broken and would not work. TIE train
gained momentum to such a frishtful cx-
tent ttat the switch cables and books lying
on the pilot base in front were hurled from
their places into the mir, breaking one of
the locomotives guard rails. Brown called
for brakes, but the train men had already
set every one and realized that tho train
was beyond their control. Seeing that
nothing could be done to stop the mad
course the train was running, Brown jump.

passengers. fearing that the train was going
to destruction, cut his way car loose and
checked it with the brakes. while the train
continued its velocity down the long grade.
The fireman stood at his post like hero,
and while the engine wus plungipg down
tho fight at giddy speed, he crawled out
on the foot-board and poked sand through
the sand box, thinking that it might assist
the wheels in getting grip upon the
rails.
AS the train sped around Material curve,
which is "short and Steep" the velocity
was so great that tho locomotive ran on one
rail and overbalanced so greatly that it come
within an acc of losing its equilibrium -

MEDICAL USES OF EGGs. For burns
or scalds nothing is more soothing than the
white of an egg, which may be poured over
the wound. 1t is softer as varnish for
burn than collodion, and being always at
hani can be applied Immediately. 1t is
also more cooling than the "swcct oil and
cotton which was formally supposed to be
the surcst application to alay the smartirg
pain. 1t is the contact with air which gives
the extreme discomfort experienced from
ordinary accidents Of this kind and any
thing which excludes air and prevents in.
fammation is the thing to be at once ap-
piled.
Tho egg is also considered one of the
best remedies for dysentcry Beaten up
slightly, with or without sugar, and swal-
lowed at gulp, it tends by its cmollient
qualities to lessen the inflammation of the
stomach and intestines, and by forming a
transient coating on those organs 20 enable
nature to resume her heathful sway over
the diseased body. Two, or at most three,
eggs per day, would be all that is required
in ordinary cases and since the egg is not
merely medicine, but food as well. the lighter
the diet 9th crwise, and the quctcr the pa
tient is kept, the more certain and rapid is
the recovery.

ly or to the people," He vindicates the
right of secession as perfectly compatible
with the constitution, and claims, besides
that the general government has no right
ful power to prevent it.
The question, ho maintains, rests with
the people, from whom all power is de-
rived.
Arriving in the latter part Of the first
volume at the period when hostilitcs com
menced, the narrative makes rapid progress.
The author refers to the Northern protests
against coercion, in which connection the
name OF Greeley figures promi lently. lie
maintains that the South did everything in
ITS power to so out Of the Union peaceably
and quietly. The conservative temper of
the Southern people, he says, was shown in
tho early acts of its Congress, and in the
adoption of its constitution it was the de-
sire and endcavor Of tho confedcracy to
bind and unite the two countries together
in friendly ties. He takes a friendlier view
OF Lincoln at the beginning Of his admin.
lstration than Of his contorccs in the fcde-
raj government. He speaks OF Lincoln's
inaugural address, and says that Lincoln
did not so far violate the traditions of his
country as 10 defend coercion. While ar.
gutnS against tho right Of the South to Sc.
cede, aud stating that he would use force
enough to protect United States property,

The case will be dockctcd for the approach

Inquiries amongst farmers from many

veal the facts that first apprehcnsions as to
the damage done to fruit trees ly the extra
ordinary cold spell in january arc fully
confirmed, and that the fruit crop tbi, year
will be very liyht-in somc sections almost
none ut all. At first it was thought that
peaches only had suffered, but il is found
upon a more careful examination that
not only peaches, but apples and fruits of
tender growth have been killed in the bud,
many of the young bearing limbs being
completely dead from tho effects of tho
freeze. The wheat and oat crops have suf-
fered comparatively little. which verifes tho
common belief wieh farmers that snow is
protection rather than an injury to these
crops.
