A good article for the lowest possible cash price is our
motto, and we also find that most Of our customers have the
same ideas. During the past four weeks we have bought ana
sold a good many Goods. An article, with which we have
been very successful, is a real respectable looking jersey
Braided and good fitting. The price is Two Dollars and nifty
cents. We have them cheaper and also better. In Dry
Goods we have several things at prices that make the people
moot think they are too cheap. We -lust not always Judge
the quality of an article by the price. The figured LAWNS
that we are selling at five cents a yard are good and the styles
are neat and pretty. About 200 yards of light seven cert
calico, in remnants from two to fifteen yards, we are going to sell
for 5 cts. a yard. Some of the Dress Goods we advertised a
month ago for eight cents have not sold very well, so we are ge-

GOOD ADVICE.

Suppose that you have the.necessary house
accommodations before you attempt to keep
fowls of any kind Then the first consider
alton, if you wish to be successful, is to start
with fowls or eggs that are OF the purest and
best blood of their particular kind. 1t is
waste of time and money to try to breed
perfect fowls from imperfect specimens. If
you are wanting to buy you cannot be too
careful with whom you deal. To get the
best you must pay good price. A breeder
cannot and will not select few of his finest
birds from all his flock and sell them at low
rates; neither will he put his finest speci-
mems in separate breeding pen and sell the
eggs at low price. Fine fowls and eggs
can't be produced cheaply, therefore they
cannot be sold cheaper.
You will generally get better satisfaction
from breeder who breeds few choice
fowls for the fancy" than you will from
one who breeds hundreds, principally for
market purposes. Some parties will buy the
poorest breeds from some well known breed
er; these are nominally pure bred, and they
advertise them as coming from some well
known strain and being the best in the coun-
try They raise lot of mostly poor fowls.
and sell and breed them as they come.-Cor

OLD HENS.

The old hen seem to be attacked from all
quarters, and the objections to her are based
upon two reasons, the first of which is that
hen will not lay as many eggs after the
first year she begins laying, and the second
is that disease is more liable among old hens
than pullets. The first objection is not al
ways IA potent one and very often the hens
lay better during the third year than the
second. Much depends upon the time OF
Matching the pullets. The pullet hatched as
late as May will be badly beaten her first
season of laying by the old hen, and il she
commences her second year it will be with
disadvantage of muulting when the weather
is cold Old hens have been known to. Law
well and regularly until quite advanced in
age. and the calculation which has been
made by some genius and given forth. that
old hens are Improbable as layers, has been
accepted more on faith than observation.
Our experience teaches us that some old
hens will lay more thru pulet>. and that
some pullets will lay more than old hens.
is that they are liable to become too fat on
very high feed but if they are fed with iude-
ment they will equal the pullets without
doubt. So far as being more liable to dis
ease than pullets there are also exceptions.

GROWING STRAWBERRIES AND RAsP.
BERRIES.

Strawberries here are nearly all grawn in
matted rows. | am experimenting with
some this season in hills and am well pleased
with the appearance of the plants, have
an acre planted in rows two feet four inches
apart each way. Next year [ shall plant in
rows two feet by two feet four inches, using
the wider spaces for the pickers so that they
will not crush the berries. Experience has
taught me that it is rot the quantity of ber-
ries that yield the gfNatest revenue to the
fruit grower, but it is the quality. To pro-

Territory, and they seem to grow in any of
our soils except very strong alkaline land.
Small bushes set out at budding time in the
spring and irrigated by running the water
near them they will grow rapidly. After
the second year but little irrigation is need
ed. This is more certain way of planting
than using poles, as first referred to. Elm
and ash grow well in our climate, but they
are costly and are not generally used, As
pins may be transplanted and grown with
certainty and ease, but they do not make
good timber for fuel or fencing.

Another great advantage in hill culture is,
that the work can be done principally with
the cultiyator instead of the hoe, which will
lessen the cost very materially.

HINTS ABOUT GRATING.

In grating it should be borne in mind
that the seions should be taken only from
healthy trees, as any diseased condition of
the scions will convey this unhealthiness to
the new growth, which will actually affect
the tree ever after. even if it should not
cause its eventual destruction. The fruit
grated can only represent that of the par
ent tree; and when there is falling off in
size or quality it may be taken for granted

and II the matter can be given fair test it
will be found that the chances are equal.
AS to which are better for breeding we
venture to say that more eggs will hatch
that are laid by old hens than by pullets,
and this is great deal in faver of the old
hens. We think hens should be kept uatil
the spring In which they become thee years
old, not that they are then useless, but be-
cause they have reached "a more mature aye,
and this plan OF dividing the hen into three
periods instead of two, will no doubt be
found better. The breed, also, has some
thing to do with the merits of pullets and
old hens. A Leghorn or hamburg pallet
will lay more eggs in year than an old hen
of the Brahma, Cochin or Plymouth Rock
Rock breeds, but an old hen of the Leghorn
breed will also lay more than the pullets of
the larger breeds. Crossed hens will also
be found good layers tor a long period, but
the cross should be iudieious one.-Farns-
