The humus or decayed vegetable matter of
soils has its origin in the dead roots and

they contain.

Wood cut during the three months that
precede the first of the year is much more
valuable than if cut the three months that
succeed that time. The reason of this is,
probably, because during the latter part of
autumn and the first part of winter there is
but little action in the sap of the tree, and
therefore the wood is not filled with it, as it
is after the sun runs higher and the days are
longer. Wood that is to be kept in piles
where it is cut, until another year, is injured
very much by being full of sap; much more
than if carried home, sawed short, and split
fine enough for firewood; therefore those
who neglect to cut their wood until February
or March, should never leave it in four feet
lengths where it is cut, but should at once
haul il home and saw it into proper lengths
for fire wood, not neglecting to pile it up SO
it can be rapidly dried by the March and
April winds. If cut in the autumn there is
not the necessity for being so particular but
it may he sawed and split any time during
the spring, and housed at once, if the wood
house is where the air can pass freely through
it.
Gray, or what is generally known as white
birch, cut the latter part of winter, becomes
almost worthless if left in the woods until
August, but il cut in the fall, and left in this
way, it will be much more valuable although
this is a wood that should be either used the
first winter after being cut in the fall or saw
ed up, well dried and housed before the first
of May; it burns well either way.-PIOugh.

And now IL occurs to me to remark that ii
is just about as easy to have eggs to sell in
winter as in summer-if you only know how
to manage the biddies properly-and my word
for it, it is great deal more profitable. or
course, somebody will say TT don't believe
it my hens won't lay in winter, and I've new
err seen any that would, and l don't believe
that Fanny Field or any other woman can
make hens lay in winter just as well as in sum
mer." But l don't care. My hens will lay
and keep on laying, whether you believe it or
not.
II you have hens of the right age, q com
Portable place for them to stay in, and keep
them supplied with everything they need you
will have eggs, simply because the hens can
no more help laying than they can help
breathing.
Hens of the right age" don't mean hens
anywhere from one to three years of age and
it don't mean hall. grown pullets. Hens of the
right age, If you keep the Brahmas, Cochins,
CT Rocks, are pullets seven or eight months
old. II your pullets were Matched out in Feb
ruary or March thoy will be seven or eight
months of age in October, and If they have
been properly fed and cared for viii COM
mence laying without any forcing process
and if you keep up the good food and care
they will lay right along for fully three
months.
II you keep lne LeBnOTns, halnOuTBb, i1Ou-
dams, or any of the smaller breeds, the pulets
for winter laying should be Matched out in
May, and they will be ready to commence
business in October or November. These
breeds mature from n month TO six weeks ear
lier than the larger breeds, and usually CON-
mence laying that much earlier. know that
some breeders claim that the small breeds, es-
pecially the Leghorns, will commence laying
at FIVE months of age, but where you will find
one Leghorn pullet that lays at five months
you will find five hundred that do not lay un-
til six or seven months. Ibave know Brahmas
and Cochins commence laying at six months
but such cases are rare usually they do not
commence until seven or eight months.
If you have no pulets of the proper age,
of course you must do the best that you can
with your old hens, unless you can prevail
upon some one who has fowls to sell to part
with few early pullets. One-y ear-old hens,
if properly cared for through moulting and
furnished with plenty of green food, meat,
lime, gravel, etc, will commence laying fully
month earlier than they would without this
extra care. Mind you, l am not advising any
forcing process beyond that of good care. A
little "egg food" may occasionally be given
with good results, but the tendency is to over
do in feeding stimulants. Fanny Field IN

Probably no other forms Of accident or in
jury come upon us so unexpectedly as those
due TO excessive cold As general thing
we are not aware that part is being frozen
until the mischief is already done. This is
duo to the fact that one Of the effects Of Sc
we're cold is to destroy the sensitveness Of the
parts exposed Surgeons make use Of this
fact In small operations and cool the parts by
artificial cold. The ears, the nose, some
times the cheeks, and the hands and feet are
the parts most liable to be frozen. One of
the first effects of freezing is to stop the cir
culation Of the blood, and any part in which
the circulation is checked by other means is
all the more likely TO be frozen. The old
fashioned skates, held on by numerous tight
straps across the feet, are dangerous on this
account, as TO keep them In place the straps
are drawn so tightly as to impede the circula-
ton in the feet, and frost bitten feet often
the consequence. Though the operation Of
freezing is painless, sudden thawing is at
tended with Inflammation and great pain. The
thawing should be very slow in order that
the circulation in the parts may be restored
gradually. For this reason 1t is advised to
rub the frozen parts with snow, or in the alb
sence of that, with water made as cold as
possible with ice. 1t is said that in Russia
when one observes that another's nose or
face is being frozen, it is an act of common
politeness TO catch up a handful OF snow and
apply it to the face of the unfortunate oven
if he is perfect stranger. In cases of severe
freezing, besides gradual thawing by the use
of snow or ice, a physician should be called
as it may be that proper precautions are need
ed to prevent modification of the parts. II
is not necessary for the feet to be actually
frozen TO produce chilblains The term frost
bitten is usually applied to such cases. Chill
dren often suffer greatly from getting their
feet very cold, and then going TO the fire to
warm them. The circulation is disturbed

Mr.. X. A. Willard, in the report of the Yer

manner IS is required to insure nice, fresh

in the form of the old Welsh tub, except that
1t is more tapering. The slaves are heavy,
and heads are provided at both ends, so as to
make package that will not leak. In pack
ing the tub is turned on the small end, and a
sack of cotton cloth is made to fit the tub,
and into this the butter is packed until it
reaches to within an inch of the groove for
holding the upper head. cloth is now laid
upon the top of the butter and the edges of
the sack brought over this and neatly pressed
down then the head is put in its place and

Under this head the Boston journal of
Chemistry names several dangerous substances
which find their way into households There
are two or three volatile liquids used in fami-
lies which are particularly dangerous and
must be employed, il at all, with special care
Benzine, ether and strong ammonia consti-
tute this class of agents. The two first named
liquids are employed in cleaning gloves and
other wearing apparel, and in removing oil
stains from carpets. curtains, etc. The liquids
are highly volatile, and flash into vapor as
soon as the cork of the vial containing them
is removed. Their vapors are very combusti-
bic, and will infame at long distances from
ignited candles or gas flames, and ;c"sequent-
ly they should never be used in the evening,
when the house is lighted.
Explosions of n very dangerous nature will
occur if the vapor OF these liquids is permit
ted to escape into the room in considerable
quantity. Iu view of the great hazard in
handling these liquids, cautious housekeepers
will not allow them to be brought into their
dwellings, and this course is commendable.
As regards ammonia, or water of ammonia,
it is very powerful agent, especially the
stronger kinds sold by druggists. An acct
dent in its use has recently come under our
notice, in which a young lady lost her life
from taking few drops through mistake.
Breathing the gas under certain circum-
stances causes serious harm to the lungs and
membranes of the mouth and nose 1t is an
agent much used at the present time for clean
ing purposes, and it is unobjectionable il
proper care is used in its employment. The
walls holding it should be kept apart from 9th.
ers containing medicines, etc, and rubber
shoppers to the vials should be used.
Oxalic acid is considerably employed in
families for cleaning brass and copper uten-
sils. This substance is highly poisonous, and
must be kept and used with great caution. In
crystalline structure it closely resembles sui
phate of magnesia or EPSON salts, and, there
fore, frequent mistakes are made and lives
lost
Every agent which goes into families among
inexperienced persons, should be kept in q
safe place, labeled properly and used with
care
