A CIRCULAR has been issued, calling
public attention in this country TO the
International Exhibition to be held at
Amsterdam, Holland, from May i to
October 81, 1883, under the auspices of
the king of Netherlands. The circular
urges that the exhibition should pos
sess peculiar interest for the mer-
chants, manufacturers, railroad COM
panies, land and mine owners, and
farmers of the United States, as Am
sterdam is one OF the richest capital
centeis of Europe. Already large
amount of Dutch capital has found its
way into this country, and it is only
needed to show the opportunity TO en-
ploy i. advantageously to attract it
here in great volume. Dutch mer-
chants of capital are found in almost
every quarter of the globe, so that the
benefit of an exhibition of American
goods at Amsterdam will be felt
wherever merchants from Holland are
established. Manufacturers of agri-
cultural implem ents are reminded that
Holland is largely an agricultural
country, while her commercial CHAR
ac.er invites the manufacturers of
every continuance for the use of ships.

II Mr.. VIM. II. Vanderbilt can spare
little attention from his fast horses
and their palatial quarters, he will find
food for thought in a fearful tragedy
enacted Saturday, on the New York
Central road, just within the limits of
Syracuse. At particularly danger
Gus crossing, where numerous acct
dents of like character have heretofore
occurred, Mr.. J. ID. Molione, his wife
and two ladies, who were driving with
them in q carriage, were crush cd and
mangled by one of Mr.. Vanderbilt's
lightning express trains, the three la
dies being instantly killed, while Mr..
Mollone was fatally injured. The out
lay in behalf of Maud S. and the rest
of the trotters rendered 1t inconvenient
for Mr.. Vanderbilt to employ a flagmau
at this very perilous crossing: but as
it WAS four human beings and not fas!
horses that were slaughtered, he will
find it difficult to fix his mind on the
catastrophe with sufficient seriousness
to arrive at the conclusion that here
is another case of railway murder fol
which he is morally responsible.

How to Make Poultry Paw

From long experience in keeping
hens, for the purpose OF profit from
eggs, we can say that with proper care
rs cents per hen is what can be relied
on as the annual earning of small
focks. The estimate of the correspon-
dent OF the Country Gentleman, of 100
eggs per hen for 800 days, is probably
correct, where hundreds OF hens are
kept in one field; but more eggs can
be realized when a smaller number
are kept in flock. The correspou-
dent above alluded to says;
The best varity of hens for laying.
especially for summer laying, is the
Leghorn. The number OF eggs seven
hundred hens will lay daily will vary
from month 70 month. 1t is hardly
probable that at any time the number
of eggs laid On any day will be half the
number of hens, and from that proper
ton in April down to none in Novem-
Der. From large flock of hens one
hundred eggs yearly for each hen is all
that can be expected. Some hens will
begin to lay in January, or even in
December, and others not unit, april.
Some will cease laying in August, while
others lay until the middle OF Novem-
Der. | am sure that one hundred eggs
a year from each hen is large aver
age for flock.
A house Is by 100 feet is large
enough for flock of 700 hens, summer
lor winter. If there are trees in the run
there IS no ueed OF house in the sum-
mer. Hens will suffer more from
roostiDg in large hooks in house in
the summer than from rain and wind.
do not think flock of 700 hens can
roost in safety in summer in an ordi-
nary building, unless it be 3 shed open
on at least three sides. The cost of a
building for summer for flock of the
size named will not exceed $50, and q
fair winter building can be made for
about 800. In this estimation allow
ance is made for ornament or beauty.
With proper care in furnishing gravel
and green food, one acre will be suffl-
ciently large for d run of 700 hens.
The cost of feed for that number, witt,
corn at 80 cents bushel, will be about
SIS. so a week. This will Include animal
and green food as we'll as grain. The
value Of corn is named only as a stand
ard.
1t is a mistake to make the keeping
of poultry merely as a summer job.
Eggs are too cheap then for large
profit. The good prices from January to
April will be lost. Hens must be bought
just when the farmers do not care to
sell and increase his price. Poultry
will be sold in the fall, when it will be
the cheapest, i. e., in November or
December. 1t would be far better to
begin in November when hens are
cheap and do not lay; get them in
good order for early laying, sell them
in the latter part of the summer or
early fall, as they cease laying and be-
fore the market is stocked with young
cockerels. In this case it will be well
to have part of the stock made up of
Brahmas and Dominieues. In this way
poultry will pay one who has love
for the care of stock and is diligent
and careful in his work. / should not
fear to undertake to keep thousands of
hens upon cheap lands, and feel sure
that profit of at least so cents hen
can be made each year and probably
more.-Hampden Times.

The Canadian Pacific Line Through British
Columbia.

Major Rogers, Of the Canadian Pacific
railway engineer department, while in
Ottawa recently: stated that he had found
a practicable route in British Columbia,
with the exception of eighteen miles, not
yet visited, in the region of the Selkirk
range. His proposed route starts from
Kamleops, whence it branches of east
erly through the mountains south of
Thompson mountain by Eagle pass
through the Selkirk region, and out at
Bow river. By adopting the Kicking
Horse pass in preference to the
Yellowhead pass, the distance on
the prairie section between Winnipeg
and Port Moody Is shortened 13O miles,
though 1t may present greater engineer
ing difficulties. The maximum grade en-.
countered is about eighty feet to the mile,
and the highest summit Is $500 feet above the
level of the sea, the highest summit In the
Yellowhead Pass being 3,720 feet above the
level of the sea. On the western side Of the
Selkirk range two short tunnels are required,
and the only serious bridging will be the two
branches of the Columbia river. The distance
from Port Moody to Bow river is $50 miles,
being in contrast with the mountain region
traversed by the Union Pacific Of 1 400 miles.
The valleys are full of beautiful timber, the
Douglas fir predominating, which will all be
useful in building the road and valuable as
marketable lumber. By this pass the Cana
dian Pacific will be shorter by some 500 miles
from ocaan to ocean than the Union Pacific or
the Northern Pacific.
