The cold, unreasonable weather which has
been experienced thus far the present season
throughout the west and northwest, was sup
plemented by heavy and in some cases dam
aging frosts, on the nights Of the 21st and 22d

reported TO have fallen, Oskaloosa recording q
depth Of four and a half inches. Frost was
also experienced in Kansas. and in Wisconsin

blasted, but on the whole it is thought no last

A Apeck Of War.

Egypt is in warlike tumult and hostile
preparations along the coast are being yigor-
ously prosecuted. All the officers have been
sworn TO defend the government against Turk
ish intervention, and an attempt was made to
exact similar pledge from the Bedouia sheiks,
but they refused.
The Egyptian ministry resigned, after refer
Ing the demands Of England and France to the
sultan. In their note to the khedive they inti-
mated that his acceptance Of the ultimatum is
an admission that the foreign powers have o
right to intervene. which, they claim. Is an in
fringement Of the sultan's rights. The khe-
dive accepted the designations, and issued q
proclamation TO the provincial authorities en-
joining them to use special vigilance for the
maintenance Of public security. He said the
British and French squadrons are on friendly
mission. All men called out are ordered home,
and the khedive in proclamation TO the army
personally assumed supreme command Of the
troops. Later-At 5 O'Clock on the 2Sth, an
immense delegation Of notables waited on the
khedive and prayed him to reinstate Arab Bey
rs minister Of war in consequence Of threat
ened insubordinstion In the army. Tho khe-
dive yielded to their entreaties, re-appointed
the deposed minister, and chose new ministry.
The complication is now in fair way Of being
righted.

Early Chickens.

10 be successful in raising early chicks,
u Is not only necessary to have a good
location and house properly constructed
put 1t is also necessary to possess an in
terest in the business sufficient to insure
constant watchfulness. A dry, sandy
or grayelly soil, with nothing to obstruct
the rays of the sun is important. As no
rariticial heat can be made equal to that
generated by the sun, the house should
be located and constructed with the view
OF getting all of the suns rays possible.
While Me cold north wind should be shut
out, thu house should be so located and
construed as TO be easily ventilated.
While tfR little chicks may be chilled by
strong bhsts of cold air, there is quite as
much danger of killing them with hot,
confined III. After the chicks are three
or four days old, they should have fresh
air a portion of every day, but the hen
should not he permitted to run at large.
She should he confined in a small house,
made light BY having the walls princi-
pally OF glass Some fresh air should be
let in, even IN the coolest weather, and
when the weaiheris not very cold, fresh
air should have free access. 1t is more
important to keep the chicks dry than to
keep them warm, therefore in damp,
rainy weather they should not be per-
mitted to 90 outside of the covered
house; but in dry weather when the Their
mometer is not below forty degrees, they
will improve by letting them out in the
fresh air, providing the hen is kept in.
The chicks will not 90 beyond her call,
and will frequently return to the house.
The health of the chicks is the most
important thing to look after. This can
only be obtained by giving them plenty
of light and sunshine, pure air, not too
cold, and food that is adapted to their
age. Fine ground meal should always
be given with caution. 1t is much better
to have the corn only cracked. Millet
seed in small quantities is good, hay
seed and weep seed, that settles to the
bottom of the hay NOW, furnishes a
variety of food, and keeps both the hen
and the chicks busy. Care should be
taken not to overfeed, for food that is
kept before the chicks several days be-
comes unhealthy. Soft bones pounded
fine make an excellent food, but should
be fed only in limited quantities. The
same may be said of fresh meat. A va
liety of food should be given, and care
take3 not to cloy the appetite of any one

Domestic Tanning.

Tanning hides is simple matter, but
it requires experience to become an ex-
pert. The old way was packing in clay
bitches, and in modern times packing in
watts. use molasses casks in place of
watts. Take of quick lime one quart to
each pail of water enough to cover the
hides. Let them remain in this three or
four days or until the hair comes oil
easily, stirring up once a day; then re-
move the hair and flesh with the knife
(the point hail of an old scythe is the
best substitute) then soak the skins in
clear water for two days. Now take Of
hen manure one quart to each pail of
water and soak the skins in it from three
to four days. Scrape every day while in
the hen manure ON both sides. All skins
must be soaked soft in clear water be-
fore lining. Fresh skins just taken off
are the best for the amateur. Now put
your skins in weak solution of hem
lock or oak bark, at first weak and strong
er after a while. The bark will have to
be cut or broken up to get the strength
out. No iron must be used as it will
blacken and spoil the leather. This will
take from one to six months. 1t must
be aired every day and the solution
changed rs soon as the strength is out.
This you may know by the white scum
rising and other SYMPTOMS of fermenta-
ton. This is the true way to tan for
boots, harness or heavy ware.
The next way is to use the common
sumach leaves. June or July is the best
time to gather them, but any time before
frost will do. Dry in the shade, then
pulyerize as fine as you can. Treat the
hides the same as in the above, except
use the sumach leaves in place of the
hemlock or oak bark. Airing twice q
day, night and morning, will take from
one to three weeks, according to the
strength of liquor and thickness of hide.
Thisis the way that | tan all skins for
gloves, mittens, etc.
