How TO PLUCK PoULTRY.-I have
known persons on market days to go
out and ii twelve or fifteen fowls, and
bring them into room where there
would be half dozen women and boys
pulling few feathers at time between
the thumb and forefnger. to prevent
tearing them. Now for the benefit Of
such l will give our plan: Hang the
fowl by the feet by small cord; then
with a small knife give one cut across
the upper Jaw, opposite the corners OF
the mouth; and after the blood has
stopped running a stream, place the
point of the knife in the groove in the
upper part of the mouth, ran the blade
up into the back part Cf the head which
will cause a twitchlng of the muscle.
Now Is your time. for every feather
yields as If by magic, and there Is no
danger of tearing themost tender chick.
Before he attempts to Flap you can have
him as bare as the day he came out OF
the egg.

NUr BEARING TREEs.-It is the safest
way 10 plant nuts where you wish the
trees to remain, as the transplantlng OF
oaks and nut trees is both laborious and
hi zardous on account of their tap root.
Plant the nuts In well prepared soil at
any time before the ground freezes.
Cover them quite lightly. They should
be allowed to freeze enough to hurst the
shell. Plant several seeds where only
one tree is wanted, and then if all sprout
let only the strongest one remain. Mark
the rows or hills so that they can be
cultivated and weeded if necessary be-
fore ,he nuts sprCut. For the first few
years keep the ground under cultivation
by planting corn or potatoes between the
rows.

DR.. LOUIS F.tzpatrick has found, after
many trials, the local application Of
tincture OF iodine to exert a we'll marked
influence in checking the growth OF
styes. This is by far preferable to the
nitrate of silver, which makes an un-
slightly mark and often fails in Its object.
The early use of the iodine acts as a
prompt abortive. To apply 1t the lids
should be held apart by the thumb and
index finger of the left hand whiie the
iodine is painted over the infamed
papilla with fine canel-hair pencil.
The lids should not be allowed to come
IN contact until the part touched is ory.
A few such applications in the twenty
four hours is sufficient,
