Winter Care Of Fowls.

For keeping fowls through the win
ter the chief and most essential thing
is warm hen house. 1t should be
built so as to afford as much sunlight
as possible and at the same time give
protection from frosts and cold winds.
A southern exposure is, of course, in
all cases the best. Where fowls have
no special quarters assigned them, as is
the case on many farms, they should at
least have dry and warm shelter for
the night. If they have house of
their own they sbonld be provided in
some way with place for dusting. A
box of ashes for this purpose is better
than nothing, a quantity of road dust
saved up during dry weather is better
still, and access TO spot of dry loose
earth is better yet than all.
If eggs are to be expected during
cold weather it is absolutely necessary
that the hens should have not only
warm quarters, a place for dusting,
and pure water, bat variety of suita-
BILE food and access to lime or bones.
AS for drink it will not do to allow the
hens to depend upon snow water, or
the pools that may exist about the
farmyard. They should have pure,
fresh water day by day.
And in the matter of food, for a
steady diet nothing takes the place OF
the common grains, buckwheat and
corn being the best 1t is not mat
ter of kindness to feed poultry steam
ing hot food during very cold weather.
They will need no such "warming up
it they have proper shelter, and if they
have not, the hot mixture will afford
only temporary relief and in the enc
leave them more susceptible to the
cold than before. Much experience
proves that hens will not lay or thriv,
AS well in that way that are allowed tC
stuff themselves with hot meals two o.
three times a day. 1t is far more liza

Neither is it work of real kindness t,

substances before it is all eaten, an,

Horse VS.. Driver.

We knew wise driver who when
he observed while stitching up that
the horses heads were carried high,
and that they were feeling frst-rate,
would say to himself, There is a
good head of steam on to day, and
shall be able TO get a good days work
out of these fellows if save it all to
be used to the best advantage" There
fore he would speak in as quiet tone
as possible, would move gently about,
and aim to get his team aheld without
any rumpus or excitement, aud would
bear with few irregularities, such as
getting out of the furrow and pulling
by fits and starts few times The
consequence would be that when they
were warmed up to their work, they
would move off smoothly and at the
same time quickly, and at the end OF
an hour there would be a row of nice,
fresh furrows to show as an equivalent
for the "steam' which more careless
man would have used up in mere fret
and fume and worry and passion.-E.c

A Whistling Sucker.

About this time of the year certain
Western newspapers habitually begin
the publication of divers stories of in
terest to students in natural history,
their principal tendency being towards
singular aud improving anecdotes Of
fish, which are generously and errone
ously regarded as being exceedingly
low in the scale of intelligence. We
need not go to the West, however, to
find instances Of the power of thought
in these creatures, as the following ac-
count of an incident that lately occur
red in this city will testify. A certain
livery stable keeper, who is an enthu-
siastic fisherman, has in his Office siz-
able aquarium, in which are placed an
assortment of the principal fresh water
food fishes of New England. Among
them is sucker which he caught
about a year ago. Now this stable
keeper is fond of music, and is contin.
ually whistling, and when one day a
customer looking at the peculiar mouth
of the sucker, remarked jokingly that
if the fish only gave his mind to it he
ought to whistle better than his owner,
the liveryman, instead of being offend
ed by the implied slur, was struck with
the idea, and forewith removing the
sucker from among his companions he
placed him in receptacle by himself,
and began to give him lessons in the
art. Selecting the famous air of "Hold
the Fort as within the average suck
er's capacity, he soon found that the
sucker could render it with great accu
racy, and followed this up with "Pul
for the Shore" and patiently drilling
the subject by alternate rebukes anC
gifts of angle-worms, he shortly doub
led the resources of his repertory. Th'
fish was then returned to the genera

Winter Management of Bees.

A correspondent to the AmerjcdR
Bee journal, writing from Battle
Ground, Ind, furnishes that paper with
the following useful hiuts
1t is usual for the aparist to look
after his colonies of bees and see that
each one is in good condition for win
tering. We will suggest, as rule,
that from Nov. to the middle of
December is good time 20 look after
the bees, and see that they have a suf-
fciency of honey to last them through
the winter. Perhaps in some seasons
it should be attended to earlier. A
good colony of bees should have at
least l5 TO 20 pounds of honey stored
IN the combs. 1t is now mooted
question as to whether it is advisa
BILE for colony to possess very
great quantity of pollen in their winter
stores.
1t has been asserted. w think very
justly, too, by some who profess TO be
we'll versed in the science of apiculture,
that pollen is the true cause of much
disease among bees during the winter
months, and especially very early in
the spring do we often hear Of COM
plants about the bees having diarrhpa.
As remedy for this trouble, we fur
ther suggest that salt water be placed
in wooden ,roughs aud set within few
yards of the bees, and then we think
there will be but little risk to run in
bees keeping perfectly healthy, if all
other things are in proper condition,
such as ventilation, good, pure food
and comfortable shed, which should
always be provided for them by the
bee keeper. The shed should have an
eastern front, but if it cannot be thus
made, our next choice would be south
front. All bee sheds should have 9
cose-ftting back aud well-shingled
roof
If these suggestions are attended tC
at the right time, aud prepared with 9
due regard to comfort for the bees a.
any other stock on the farm, we would
have no cause for complaint. a goot
farmer never thinks that he has done
too much for his horses, COWS, sheel
and hogs, by building good barns, sta
bles and pens, in which he can have al
his farm stock protected from incle
ment weather.
The question has often been asked
rs it necessary to build good winte
quarters for bees ?" We answer tha
it is Just as essential as it is for any
other stock. 1t is true that we do no
pay as much for colony of bees as W
do for a COW or horse but it is n
less the duty of the busbandman t.
protect and care for the bees by pre-
viding the proper sheds for them
