Poultry Raising as a. Business.

There is just now much interest in
poultry raising, and a disposition to
take it up on a large scale. The fol-
lowing extract from one OF our recent
letters will give an idea of the many
inquiries made of us: ''Is poultry rails
inc a profitable business, and would
you advise young man to invest one
thousand dollars in itp"-This might
be answered in brief: Poultry are profit
able, and we would not advise a young
man (nor an old one) to at once invest
one thousand dollars in it. Farmers
find the poultry yard the most protita-
BILE part of the farm, in proportion to
the capital invested. Many reckon in
this way: If fifty fowls are profitable,
five hundred will be ten times as profit
able. This is an instance in which
figures do not tell. the truth. AS soon
as the number of fowls is doubled,
troubles are quadrupled. A range and
houses which will keep fifty in perfect
health, will be overcrowded with one
hundred, and all the troubles due to a
dense population will follow. While
we believe that poultry keeping on a
large scale may be made profitable,
capital to purchase birds and build
houses, is not the only thing needful.
Those who undertake the business,
must give their whole time and atten-
ton to it. One point is well settled
fowls cannot be kept together in large
numbers, and thrive. The whole mat
ter requires careful study and expert
ment. The beginner should start in a
small way, and increase as success
seems to warrant it. The point to be
determined at the outset, is: Shall eggs
or dressed fowls be the object? Each
requires very different management
IL sh9u ntad 1e s Starng mtS
abundant capital, and no experience,
will surely end in failure. The best
works upon poultry management insist
upon keeping fowls in small focks;
this is regarded essential to success

Science as a Basis Of Conduct.

My purpose in these papers is to
show how rules OF conduct may be es-
tablished on scientific basis for those
who regard the so-called religious basis
as unsound. | shall follow chiefly the
teachings of one who has inculcated in
their best and purest form the scientific
doctrines of morality, and may be re-
garded as head, if not founder, of that
school of philosophy which, on purely
scientific grounds, sets happiness as the
test of duty-the measure of moral
obligation. To Mr.. Herbert Spencer
we owe, take.it, the fullest and clear
est answer to tho melancholy question,
SIS Life Worth Liying?' whether asked
whiningly, as in the feeble lamenta-
tions Of such folk as Mr.. Mallock, or
gloomily and sternly, as in the Prone.
thean groans of Carlyle. The doctrine
that happiness is to be sought ones
self (but as a duty to others as we'll as
TO self), that the happiness of others is
to be sought as a duty ito ones self as
well as to them Happiness as a
means, happiness as the chief end
such has been the outcome Of the much
maligned philosophy of Mr.. Herbert
Spencer, such has been the lesson re-
sulting from his pursuance Of what he
himself describes as his s.ultimate pur,
pose, lying behind all proximate pur-
.poses,' that Of finding for the prin-
