PekIn Ducks.

Among the different breeds OF
ducks the Pekin stands very high in
the estimation of many.~<Like all
ducks, they love the water, but are
more contented on dry land than al>
most any other breed. Water, how.
ever, is great help to them, as 1t
tends to keep their feathers clean
and white.
The Peklns are highly valued as
feather and egg producers. They
average about eighty eggs each, and
when not laying, they can be picked
every six. weeks. Their feathers are
OF best quality. If not picked when
ripe they drop feathers, aud they are
scattered 10 the wind.
Ducks when laying, should not be
allowed to run loose at night time,
so they have but little idea OF laying
in nest, dropping their eggs in the
water or anywhere. The duck is a
profitable bird when attended to in
this way, but when let run at laying
time, and losing their eggs, there is
but little profit in them.

Grateful Women.

None receive so much benefit, and
none are so profoundly grateful and
show such an interest in recommend
ing Hop Bitters as women. 1t is the
only remedy peculiarly adapted to the
many ills the sex is almost universally
subject to. Chills and fever, indiges-
ton or deranged liver, constant or
periodical sick headaches, weakness
in the back or kidneys, pain In the
shoulders and different parts OF the
body, feeling OF lassitude and de-
tendency, are all ready removed by
these Bitters. - Ca6rG1at.

Frozen Plants.

From tie AnericQn CaltipdtoT
have tried dipping in cold water
and sprinkling, and generally with
unfavorable results-perhaps from
not managing it rigbt-from the fact
that plants out of doors will pass
through a pretty severe frost I'M
harmed when clouds OF. fog obscure
the suns rays in the morning. have
taken a hint, and several times have
saved frozen plants in my greenhouse
by building atire OF halfrotten wood,
damp brush, etc., In an open vessel,
so as to fill the house with smoke
and steam. l think it is the gener'
ally received opinion that, like the
Irishman who "was not hurt by fall
ing, but by stopping so quick" it is
not so much the freezing as the sud
den thawing witch destroys them.
But am inclined to think there may
be some peculiar action OF the SUMS
rays-perhaps the chemical rays
which does the mischief. | have OBJ
served that the very first rays that
strike a frosted plant seem to kill it
at once, while in some experiments
In thawing by smoke and steam some
plants have been thaW ed quite rap
idly by the fire and came out all right.

Thick or Thin Rails.

The older farmers Of our country
generally favor the use cf fence rails
not split thick, the thin rails, they
say, outlasting the thick ones many
years. The reason given tor this is
that thick rail takes long time to
dry out after rain, the moisture in
the meantime rotting it. Then, too,
when it begins to decay, the decayed
part seldom completely dries, hold.
ing moisture much longer than non
decayed wood, and thus fastening its
decay. The sharp side of the rail
should be the heart edge, and this
should be the upper side of The rail
when in the fence. 1t is certain that
dry wood will outlast that which is
partly wet, and understanding this a
fence may be set up to the best adj
vantage.

A Good and Cheap WhitewaSh.

From an Exchange.
Few people know how easily
whitewash is made and how valua.
BILE it is when properly applied. 1t
not only prevents the decay OF wood
but is greatly conducive to the
healthtulness OF buildings, whether
of wood or stone. Out buildings
and fences, when not painted, should
be supplied once or twice year
with a good coat OF whitewash.
which should be prepared in the fol-
lowing way Take clean, water
tight barrel or other suitable cask,
and put into iiSabout half a bushel OF
lime; slack it by pouring water over
it boiling hot, and put in sufficient
quantity of water to cover it five
inches deep, and stir it briskly till
thoroughly Stacked when the slack
ing has been thoroughly effected,
dissolve it in water, and add two
pounds of sulphate OF zinc and COM
mon salt. These will cause the wash
to harden and prevent It's cracking,
which gives an unseemly appearance
to the work. Ii desirable, beauti-
tul cream color may be given to the
above wash by adding three pounds
of yellow ochre; or good pearl by
lead, lamp, vine or ivy black. For
tawn color, add four pounds ofumber,
Turkish or American-the latter is
the cheaper-one pound of Indian
red, one pound OF common lamp
black.
