Harvest Festival,

Am nIntefesting Service at the First M. lS.
 Church.
 The First M. E. church was crowded yes- terday afternoon on the occasion of the an- nual Sunday school harvest festival.
 The front of the choir gallery was finely decorated with sheaves of wheat and ears of golden GOTH, while on the platform at the right.and left of the preachers desk were beautifully arranged mounds of fruits and roots in coIors of green and gold, presenting a most attractive appearance. There was, however, not so profuse display as year ago, when the bounteous crops called forth more general and hearty thanksgiving. The exercises, however, were of an inter esting character, and opened with process sional, the boy choir entering the church and singing an anthem of praise. On conclusion of the singing, the pastor, Rev. Mir. Buck, read selections from scripture commencing, ssBless the Lord oh my soul let all that IS within bless his holy name"
 The singing of hymn followed, commenc- ing:
 sEGod eternal, mighty king,
 Unto Thee praise we bring"
 An appropriate prayer followed by the pas tor.
 The one hundred and thirty-sixth Psalm was then read, the pastor reading the first part of each verse and the school responding with the last part, ''For his mercy endureth forever"
 The scripture lesson was from the 23rd chapter of Exodus, commencing at the 14th verse. On the conclusion of the reading, g collection was taken for the Sunday school which was apparently liberal one. The hymn commencing "Plow up the fields'' was then sung by the school. Rev. Dr. Vincent of this city, was ther introduced, and delivered very fine dis course, which was not only entertaining il it's character to children, but also to older people His remarks were full of beautiful 1 imagery calculated to impress all with the | goodness of God to the human race The exercises were closed by singing th' hymn,

GRASsHOPPERs.

A few grasshoppers are reported in some
sections and there is a possibility of little
damage being done in fields where the Hon.
pers are Matching out. In the immediate
vicinity of Denver we note their appearance
on Wheat ridge, on the middle Golden
road, and at Weir's place on the Platte. On
both sides of Bear creek they have appeared
in numbers sufficient to awaken the fears of
the farmers in that neighborhood, and steps
TOR their determination have been taken.
Our exchanges bring us word of their ap-
pearance near Evans, on the Platte: on the
St. Vrain, near LoDgmont, and on the Ar
kansas above Canon City. Though not in
sufficient numbers to threaten the sprout-
ing crops, still, in some localities they are
thick enough to justify note OF warning
to be uttered so that our friends may pre-
pare their material for fighting the pests as
soon as they appear Colorado Farmer

JERSEY BLUES.

These fowls are thus described in the
Poultry Bulletin: ''Plumage of a BLUSH
character, somewhat the color Of a Maltese
cat, or the Andalusian fowls, only of dark
er and richer shade than the latter. The
cocks hackle, saddle and tail feathers are of
very dark shade, approaching black, the
tail being short and the sickles slightly
curved; the color OF the breast, wing bars.
coverts and thighs being OF lighter shade,
with each feather distinctly shown by the
appearance OF somewhat darker shading
around the edges. The cocks comb is
large, straight and evenly serated, wattes
OF ponderous character, ear lobes like the
comb and wattles, of bright red color;
eyes very dark bay; the color of the legs
is very dark blue, or seal black, well
scaled, and entirely free from feathers re-
sembling those ola black turkey. The
plnmage OF the hen is very simiar-not
quite as dark. The cocks when well ma
tured weigh from ten to twelve pounds,
hens seven to nine pounds. They are said
to be excellent table fowls, the meat being
white and quite fine grained. The chicks
are hardy and grow rapidly. For gene
raj purpose, they are highly commended by
the New Jersey farmers, whose close prox-
unity to the New York market should make
them good judges.''

POULTRY DISORDERS.

AS rule it does not pay to spend much
time or money in doctoring poultry, and
our experience proves, to us at least that
frequently the best remedy is the 'axe and
chopping block,' for it arrests disease in
that bird at least, and may be the means of
preventing the other members of the flock
from contracting the same disease or disor-
der, although as soon as any bird is seen
Win "faded comb" or other evidence of
lll-health, it should be removed to separate
and distant quarters, and then treated ac-
cordlng to the kind and severity of the all
ment. Extreme cleanliness, together with
comfortable shelter, proper food and fair
range generally secures immunity from dis
ease, if not from ordinary disorders, and is
every way preferable to inviting disease by
lax management and then administering
cures and drugs for that purpose.
A moderate and judicious use of cayenne
pepper goes far toward toning up the sys-
tenn, but 1t must be remembered that it can
and will do harm whe; ted too frequently
Or in too large quantities, as is done by
some breeders who see the good results
which are at first apparent from its use. If
few bits of old iron or rusty nails are kept
in the prinking water, it will help to tone
up the system, and may prevent many Of
the minor disorders to which poultry are

sEASONABLE HINTS.

The season now upon us calls for activit,
OF mind and hands. as no other in the whole
year. On the judicious use of both depend
largely the benefits of all the seasons I'd
come. First and foremost the egg, and
then the chicken from the egg. 1t has of
ten been said to get the chicken from the
egg was one thing, to get that chicken when
it could take care of itself quite another.
But on this subject whole columns have been
published and perhaps less attention paid to
| the teachings of sage experience than in
any other. In fact in these days of artificial
methods one cannot tell how to reach a
greater number OF readers. The treatment
of the egg and those things governing its
production are subjects ripe for thought at
all times. What is an egg without she'll?
A worthless thing to the fancier an aggra-
vation to the housekeeper, and a bait to
lead the susceptible hen into a pernicious
habit. Therefore it is as necessary as feed,
that the shell material should be supplied
and not carelessly neglected, not in the
Matching season only, but at all seasons.
Passing over the Matching and rearing of
chickens, tor how often have we all heard
that "any old woman can set hen,' while
any incubator maker will furnish full di-
rections with his machines free, the season.
able care OF the stock is worth considera-
ton. AT the time of this writing, the winds
give no premonition of the vermin which
will surely infest the most comfortable
quarters of the pains-taking fancier, if the
ounce of prevention is not applied in time,
and none will question that the prevention
is worse than the cure. All may not think
alike (what confusion if such were the case).
but here is one successful way, well proved
and never fonnd wanting.
Remove from the interior OF the poultry
house everything movable, including the
support to the roosts, put tar paper on the
sides and return the roosts to their places.
Fumigate the nest boxes with sulphur or
anything else as good, and put them some
where outside of the house-fasten them on
the fences or any other suitable place. With
a large bsush, thoroughly saturate the
roosts once a week with kerosene OIL |
Place no dependence on roosts made of sas-
afras poles or pitch pine, for under the bark |
of the one, and most pitchy crevices of the
s.ther, the lice find their most comfortable
only to be dislodged by kerosene.
This, then, rs sure prevention. Hen lice
will not trouble theotar, while kerosene is
fatal to them. AS there is nothing with |
which the fowls come in contact which does !!
