Fading Fowls.

The rapid digestion of food in a
fowls stomach calls for an almost
continuous supply of food. In 8
discussion of this question in the
New York Times, that paper says:
Regularity of supply is of the
greatest Importance when the con
sumption is so rapid. If the sup
ply is not regular, there is a great
loss. There is not only waste OF
energy, but a waste of time in re-
storing this waste of power, and 1t
is on this account that so many
fowls merely live along and do not
produce eggs as freely as is expect
ed although the quantity of food is
supposed to be quite liberal. The
system of sending fowls to roost on
full belly, and keeping them al
day long hungering and thirstine
for food is to blame for much OF
the shortcomings of the hens
The quantity of food required by al
animal is estimated at three pc
cent. of the live weight daily
This merely supports life; all in
crease of weight, or any produc
whatever, must be supplied by 81
extra allowance, so that 20 hen
weighing 100 pounds, would meet
three pints of solid nutritious foo
daily to live, and do no more
This is equal to three-twentieths O
q pint to each hen. Two twenti
eths, or one-tenth of a pint, o
about one and half ounces, of foo
is then required every day for To
production of eggs, the total dali.
food requirements being one-fourtl
of pint, and this is the establishe,
rule, from long experience, among
poultry keepers. One quart O
corn or other grain for eight hen
is the regular daily allowance
given in at least two meals, and i
hiss been found that a flock of heus
when supplied with constant pro
vision of grain before them, vii
consume this quantity and n
more, in addition TO what SINAI
things in the shape of flies an,
other insects, grass etc, they ma,
pick up."-Prairie.Farmer

Very Peculiar Husbands.

''Yes, my husband is a peculiar
man about some things" remarked
Mrs. Mangos to her caller, Mrs.
Pebiy. "He will trust the judgment
of any one, except in the matter OF
beef steak. This, he declares, no
one but himself can select. Early
every morning, no matter how cold
the weather may be, he gets out OF
bed before the fires are made and
goes down to the butchers. Many
time have asked him why he did
not bring the meat as he comes
home in the evening, but he de-
clares that meat should always be
selected at morning. Sometimes he
cannot find meat to suit him, and
then he comes home without any"
Just for the world like my hus-
band,' remarked Mrs. Pebly. "The
morning is never too cold. for him
to 90 down town to see about his
beef steak. l had no idea that any
other man was like him"

joiHing butcher shop:

CLUB RATES.
White Leghorns as Layers.

l am often asked the question,
What breed of fowls will give the
greatest number of eggs in season,
with fair attention and breedingY'
and my invariable reply is the
White Leghorn. 1 have bred them
for abont twelve years, and cannot
tire of them. White Leghsrns sur
pass as egg producers all other
breeds; the egg is full size, equal to
Asiatic pure white, and good flavor,
if the flock have = clean run with
proper feed and water. / have
known White Leghorns, when in
winter quarters, TO far surpass
Light Brahmas, under similar con-
dition, in the number of eggs dur
ing the winter, and / think they
will do this in all cases where the
premises are just warm enough to
keep the cocks from having their
combs frozen. / have had the num-
Der of eggs counted in pen of six
w. L. pullets, with good run, and
the average was over 225 for the
season. l have heard often stated
that the weight of the total egg
production of an Asiatic hen will be
greater than that Of White Leg
horn. This certainly has not been
nay experience, and 1 have often
weighed equal numbers of each,
and invariably found the White
Leghorn to equal the Light Brahma
in this respect. The Hamburgs are
good layers andswill about equal the
Leghorns, but the eggs are not so
large.
White Leghorns are non-sitters,
easily reared, feather very quickly,
and SIRE very precocious. 1 had
cockerels growing at 33 days old
this year, and the pullets, if early
hatched, will lay at or 5 months,
and continue on through the win
ter with houses as previously men
toned. They are a handsome,
snowy bird, and are particularly
striking when in fiocks of 20 or 30.
[ have tried many breeds and ie-
lies, but I unhesitatingly say that
White Leghorns will give more
eggs than any other breed l know.

There Should be no Stand-Still If
Feeding.

In feeding, push your cattle al
well as hogs from the start, SAYS
the National Live Stock Journal
and adds:
"The expert in this business has
learned that there must be for the
highest profit no stand-stilI In the
life of the beef animal. Where
there is no growth the food eaten is
lost. All growth comes from the
extra food; if only enough is given
to support the animal, it must re-
main stationary, without any in
crease in weight or value. A nu-
merous class of farmers keep what
they call store cattle through the
cold season in a stand-still condi-
ton; and they do not seem to real.
ize that they have been throwing
away all the food consumed through
the winter, because they have not
given food enough to produce any
growth. This ought to be so plain
to them as not to need explanation.
The store animal that makes no
growth is actually becoming less
valuable, because its capacity for
digesting food becomes impaired,
and it often takes a month on good
grass to get these store cattle into q
thrifty condition again. If these
farmers would study this storing
system carefully, they certainly
would not repeat it. As we have
often shown, it takes two-t thirds of
a full ration to keep the animal alive
without growth, and this is lost I'M
less the other third is added to pro-
duce a vigorous growth. 1t costs
from $40 to SIS TO store a steer
through the winter, and if farmer
has ten head his loss will be from
800 to $3.50; while had be fed $50
to $75 worth more of feed the
growth would have paid profit on
the whole feed. This system, then,
shows a great want of foresight.
"The famous Illinois cattle feed
er, John H. Gillet, after carefully |
studying the matter in an expert
ence of many years, now says there
s only one profitable system of feed.
ng, and that is to feed the calf lib
orally every day from its birth to its
for beef. He once thought
t well to feed the calf moderately
he first winter, on the idea that it
would gain faster the following sum-
ner. But he has quite abandoned
his view after careful consideration
If the facts in his large experience.
This last view is in keeping with
he soundest principles in the phil
'sophy of feeding"

1t is generally admitted by those
who have studied the subject that
land needs food and rest as well as
man and beast. There are few
who think that all their lands need
is food; but my word for it, your
land needs rest also, for even the
richest lands show that rest will
pay the farmer. The manner in
which this rest should be given is
the question. In many places of
the south, especially Alabama and
Georgia, rest means turning the
field out to grow up in weeds and
bushes. But is this the proper
method of resting land? No, no!
In the best farming sections OF Ken
lucky and Tennessee, SIS well as the
northern states, when land is turn
ed out to rest it is seeded in clover
or grass. This gives your land 8
rest from cultivation and at the
same time furnishes food for horses
sheep, cattle and hogs. This stock
will produce beef, pork, mutton
wool, food tor horses, and more, 8
vast supply Of home manures, which
if utilized, will assist in still lncreas
ing your crops. So l say with EN-
phasis, rest your land if you wish [,
make your farming profitable.
Too msny farmers turn out thei
poor lands TO wash away or grow
up in worthless weeds. Ii you
lands will grow weeds they vii
grow grass or clover. Ii you
lands are very poor, don't let tn
stock eat the grass, but save it al
to turn under. But if your land
tolerably good, you may pasture G
cut off some of the grass. But re
member, you are resting your Ian
and you should give it fair chanc,

WASHINGTON, Jan. I2.-Mrs. Bel
va Ann Lockwood, candidate of the
Equal Rights party for president
in the late campaign, in her petit
ton to the senate through Senator
Hoar, asks that the votes cast for
her in New York. New Hampshire.
Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Illinois,
Maryland and California be count
ed, and that the electoral vote of
Indiana be given to her. She
charges that the votes cast for her
were ''fraudulently and illsgally
counted tora the alleged majority
candidate, the same being antago-
nistic to the letter and spirit of the
law and subversise Of every princi-
pie of equity and justice.
She also asks that the senate ''re-
fuse to receive the electoral return s
of the state of New York, or count
them for the alleged majority can
didate, for had the 1 1856 votes poll
ed in said state for your petitioner
been counted for her, and not for
one Grover Cleveland, he would
not have been awarded a majority
Of all the votes cast at said election
in said state" The reason for ask
ing that the electoral vote of India
ma be cast for her, she says is that
after the Electoral College OF that
state cast it's vote for the aforesaid
Grover Cleveland it changed its
mind, as it had legal right to, and
did cast its united ballot for your
petitioner.

According to an account in the

Trastour has employed with great
advantage the vapor of glycerine
wherever a distressing or frequent

remedy is very simple in applica-

of glyeerine are heated in porce-

therefore disengaged, and should

There are two new varieties Of
fowls which are attrac ing consider

they are beauties too, as every one
will admit who has seen a nice
flock of cockeral and pullets in their

Wyandotte fowl, breed of recent
introduction, is also becoming pop
ular among the farmers. The New
England Farmer speaks of it thus;
''They are about as large as the

the breast is broad and heavily
