Dangers Of High Feeding.

Laying fowls must be provided with
fresh drink daily and light diet for the
morning feed. The evils Of heavy
feeding begin to crop out at this season
with pulleis, aud older ones manifest
the weakness later MS they come into
laying. Then complaints are heard Of
such diseases Ms cholera, ETC., when In
reality the fault lies In the previous
feed Ing. Oitentimes there arc COM
plants Of llndlng the fowls dead under
the roost; sometimes with full, some-
times with empty crops. At the same
time the keeper does not know whether
the birds went UP to roost tho night be-
fore. or even for several nights before.
lie only knows that he has fed well,
given corn In abundance, perhaps sup
piled drink each day. perhaps not. The
fowls may have had TO obtain water
either nj the farm-ynrd water trough or
by eating snow. This sort Of poultry
keeping among our farmers has been
too common In former days, but am
glad 10 be able to think IL has become
the exception.
Heavy feeding Of corn alone will not
answer Its evil effect will be seen
sooner or later. Some may endure It
aud come out all right in the spring.
hut half the profit Is gone. There have
been no winter eggs, and these are one
OF the important items In the keeping
OF fowls at the present day. Even
though the fowls may be comfortably
housed and cared for. yet they may DO
too crowded and fed TOO high. Fowls
require a change Of feed often. and con-
siderable coarse bulky food. There ID
difference also In breed. but all may
be forced TO an excessively fat condi-
ton. which Is always injurious, especial.
ly with young fowls that should
be urged into laying at rs early

plotting growth. The large, or Asiatic
fowls In particular. after fully grown
aud maturcd. should have the ration,

coarse, bulky feed. such as moistenet

The seventeenth annual encampmept ofthe
Department of Vermont, G. A. r., was held

Custer, No. AZ, of Bennington, escorted the
department to G. A. II. Hall, where the en-
campmcnt was called to order by Depart
mcnt Commander Valentine, who delivered
an excellent and interesting address. A. A.

twenty three Posts during the past year and
gain of 1871 in membership, making n
total of 2s7l, against 1850 year ago.
A. A. Gen. Greenlcafs report showed a
balance on hand of S749.b0 in cash and sup
plies.
The Posts in the Department have ex-
pended on relief during the year the sum of
1873 63 and have on hand for relief pur-
poses about $1,000.
After the appointing of committees on
the different reports the Department was
escorted to the banquet hall, where the
tables were set for over three hundred and
were filed by the Department and invited
guests. The supper was bountiful Que and
nicely served by the Ladies Relief Corps

70 the Editor Of the Free Press and Times:
A ncte in Tuesdays issue OF your paper
upon tie water works prompts me TO ask
your indulgence.
The water department derives its sole ill.,
come from the water takers. and that revenue
for the year 1888 amounted to S24, $50. 1G,
including uncollcctcd bills for the year Of
50, 05S.02. Now, whenever the expenses Of
this department amount to more than the
revenue, the department must be behind,
and money from the city treasury Is taken
to make up the deficiency. The Board of
Aldermen at their last meeting dnn0Nhced
that this department had surplus OF So
GAO. 81 ard the account as made up was
passed TO the city treasurer. This being the
order of the Board, be must conform his
statement with this forced balance, not.
wthstandipg his objections as 70 its
accuracy. bet us now take the expenditure
for the past years and see if the arithmetic
of common sense will figure surplus. II
so we will declare dividend TO the taxpayers
aud take a back scat.
Our position is this, that oil expenditures
on the works TO replace that worn out,
should be considered expense, and so charg-
cd, like the repair Of pumps, making oven
or replacing new boilers, or the relayins OF
pipe to replce that found unfit for service.

The old Farmers Mutual fire insurance
company, which began business in 1850, will
wind up its business on the first Of March
next. The reasons therefor are best en-
pressed n the resolution adopted by the
directors al meeting held January 31st;
That the severe losses OF the Farmers
Mutual during the last few years, despite the
utmost caution and vigilance on the part Of
its directors, have ueccsstatcd percentage
of assessment regarded Us burdensomc 10

assessments many pollcY-holdcrs have with
drawn from The company, thereby reducing
its note capital to such Hu extent that II IS
believed to be not for the interest of the
members to continue the business OF the
company ; and the directors and officers Of
the company have no interest or wish to
prolOng its existence beyond the period
when tor any reason it has ceased to meet
the wants and sub3crvc the interests of its
policy-holders for whose benefit it was char
