f. Winter Climate That Has, Its
E'anlts.
From the PhiIaielD}lia Pres.

from CIle InuaueipiiIa EitsS
This brings ME to speak. about my
experience Of the climate Of Manitoba.
The variations of temperature are very
great I have, seen the thermometer
stand at 1875 degrees, inside & tent in
summer, and at IS degrees below Zero,
or90 degrees below freezing point, OUT
side the house in winter. Such arctic
cold would he uncomfortable If the air
were not so wonderfully dry and clear,
and often very still, that it does not
seem half as cold as il really is. Then
the changes Of weather. are not generally
very Sudden; the heat and cold are very
regular, and in n2idseasons the Their
mometer does not fuctuate much.
The snow outside our house is from
six to ten feet deep from November to.
April. Moccasins, made by Indians Of
moose skin, are used instead OF shoes to
cover the feet, which are first cased. III
several pairs Of stockings.
We were forced to. melt snow for all
the water we used last winter. The
cold is so intense that VIXEN melted
snow water is poured from THE boiler IN
to pail, and taken at once across to the
stable, the ice on it frequently has to be
broken with stick before the cattle
can drink. It is rather aconlmon sight
to see people partly frozen. The part
affected turns as white as Marble and
loses all feeling. Unless YOU see your
self in a glass, or are told of it, you are
not conscious Of being frozen. In this
- tn
sudden thawmg is very painful. People
generally try friction. rubbing them
selves with snow, or, better STILL, with
paraffine oil. Occasionally. when one
is frozen, and far from help, the part
frozen, if an extremity, will snap off.
Last year HAN Giving about thirty
miles from US was told that his ear was
frozen; he put up his hand to, teel, and
the ear dropped off in his hand. Limbs
sometimes have to be amputated from
severe Prostitutes. Ny kitten S ears froze
anvil broke of last winter, and q neigh
boris pony lost his, CARS in the same
way.
I was surprised when I first found
the mustard freeze III my mustard pot,
which stood foot from the kitchen
stovepipe and two feet above the stove,
t, where there was blazing fire all day
and every day through the winter. Yet
the mustard froze between every meal.
To woman the most trying part of a
winter in Manitoba is not its severity
| for YOU live in a. warm house-but it's
length. Snow lay on the ground last
season for six months. and half, and the
| great lakes were frozen.

DYNAMITE.

The Pail Nal Gasette says: Dynamite is
too dangerous an agent to be sold as freely
as sealingwax, yet it seems to be procurable
without any difficulty in all parts of the
country. Hardly month passes in which
cases are not reported of poachers using
dynamite as a means of catching fish, and
and the dynamite grenade used to kill trout
in pool might just as easily be employed
to destroy human life. So familiar are
some people with the explosive that it is
even being used as means of suicide.
Yorkshire correspondent sent to the British
Medical Journal of a recent date an &C.
count of an extraordinary case, in which q
drunken well-sinker put an end to hifAseh
by exploding dynamite cartridge in his
mouth. Strangely enough, although his
tongue, teeth, palate and maxillary bones
were blown to pieces, the skin of the cheeks
and lips remained intact, and, except fol
extravasation of blood about the eyes, there
was little to show externally tho cause Of
his death.

One of the secrets of successful poul-
try raising is the art of feeding proper
ly; not merely at regular intervals, but
on the most suitable food, and keeping
the chicks growing as rapidly as posi-
BILE from the very start. 1t is very
poor economy to stint the poultry, es-
pecially young, growing stock, for,
when once stunted, it takes a long
while to recover, If it does occur at all.
For the first twenty-four hours after
the chicks emerge from the shell, they
should remain under the hen unmoles-
ted, both to dry and gain strength and
hardness. They do act require any
food, as the store nature provides will
last yer this time. AS the chicks
hatch some times irregularly, the older
ones can be cared for in the house un-
til the others are ready to be taken
away, when the hen and her brood can
be removed in a roomy coop, with q
tight board bottom and a rain-proof
roof.
They should be fed five times daily,
but only Just what they will eat up
clean. The first food should consist OF
stale bread moistened in water, or in
fresh milk-the milk is decidedly pref
cradle. Do not wet the food, as very
moist or sloppy food will cause sickness
and high rate of mortality among
young, tender birds. Keep the water
(for drinking) away from them until
they are six or eight weeks old; but if
milk can be spared. give them occa-
sionally drinks of it. The too lavish
use OF corn meal has caused more
death among young chicks than
cholera has among grown fowls.
Until the chicks are half-grown,
corn meal should be but sparely fed,
but after that time, when judiciously
used, 1t is one Of the very best and
cheapest food for fowls and chicks. Nine
tenths ofthe youngturkeys and guinea
fowls die when in the " downey"
state, get their death blow
from corn-meal, as it is a very
common practice-because it is SO
handy" and suits lazy people 50
well-to merely moistcn with cold
water some raw corn-meal, and then
feed them. Young chicks relish oc-
casional feeds of cracked wheat and

boiled. is not only greedily eaten by
the chicks, but is one of the very best
things that can be given.
1t frequently happens that damaged
lots of rice, or low grades of it, can be
bought at low figures in the cities. AS
it increases so much in bulk in cooking
it is not an expensive food for young
chicks, even at the regular retail
price (; though 1t would not, ordinarily,
pay to feed it to full-grown fowls very
literally. In the absence of worms,
bugs, etc, during early spring, cheap
parts of fresh beef, can be well boiled
and SHREDDED up for the little chicks /;
but care must be taken not to feed
more frequently than once in two
days, and then only in moderation.
This feeding on meat shreds is very
beneficial to young turkey and guinea
chicks when they are shooting
their first quill feathers, rs then they
require extra nourishment to repair
i the drain on immature bodies.

THE BLUE GLASS THEORY.

Professor Schlager, director of a noted
insane asylum at Vienna, announces the re-
suit of experiments made by him in rela-
ton to the blue glass healing theory, which
at one time attracted SO much attention in
America as well as abroad. He had a room
furnished with windows of blue grass, and
had the walls painted of the same color.
He then selected sixty persons who were
more or less deranged mentally, and made
them subjects of experimentation for a Pc
Rod of three years, placing them at selected
times in the blue room and carefully noting
the apparent effects upon them. He dis
covered that the abnormally aroused and
excited temperament experienced a remark
ably soothing and quieting influence. In
the blue light, and he expresses the convic-
ton that with persons thus mentally de-
ranged, with whom every other method of
treatment has failed, this should be tried.
He does not report any complete cures
made by this means alone, but says that in
most cases the treatment has proved bene-
fetal, and that if continued systematically
and persistently, the indications are that il
will lead to complete restoration. In no
case did it work injury. He expresses the
intention to continue his experiments, and
calls upon all associates and colleagues in
the treatment of the insane to do the same,
and make careful notes of their observa-
tions. Professor Schlager has also made
valuable and interesting experiments in
treating deranged persons of abnormally
depressed or sluggish and apathetic temper.
aments by exposing them'in similar man.
ner to red light. His conclusions seem to
be based upon careful and scrupulous study
and observation, and are attracting deserved
attention.
