The hens will not stay in a closed
poultry-house during the day time, no

dit;on Of fowls to &c in the open air.

such as the turkey and guinea, much
prefer the trees at night to am Shelter

not imply by this that it is to the al
vantage of the farmer to expose his
fowls. for dOmestication has made them
dependent upon his care, but we viii
state that during the day an open shed
will be of greater advantage, even in
the severest of weather, than a close
house. But at night the fowls should
be comfortably housed and protected.

nearly ali the diseases of fowls in winter
and spring arise from exposure to cold
winds. The comb, if examined.
will be found to be perfect
radiator of heat, and the larger the
comb the greater the exposed surface to
the action of the cold, and the more rap
idly the heat is carried off. The same
may be said of the wattles, which often
get wet while the bird is drinking, and
become frozen. Therefore give your
hens an opportunity to work in the open

Rlack-LeE.

Known in medical science rs anthrax
of the cxtremities, is q blood disease
usually attacking young cattle in the
summer, and is neither infectious OF
epidemic. Those in the best condition
are most apt to be attacked High liv-
ing on luxuriant grass is generally the
cause of attack, and especially with
those that had been reduced in flesh dur
ing a hard winter. The symptoms are
a sudden depression of the body as if
palsied. and some part swells, usually
the legs. 1t is more dangerous when
near or on the loins. The fever causes
blisters on the mouth and tongue.
When the animal is first discovered,
Clater SAYS, bleed freely, then give a
purgative and cut off the feed. Careful
nursing helps more than physic, and
when improvement is noticed. feed eau
tiously on non-heating substances,
gradually changing to more nourishlng
food. 4gricuiturls:-

AN EASTER INCIDENT.

In moonlight the world was sleeping,
As it slept on that night OF old
When the wonderful angel descended =
And the stone from the sepuicher rolled
The vigil of Easter was ended,
The hour of midnight tolled.
In one of the countless chambers
Where sIumber held its sway
Dreaming perhaps of Easter
Tranquil sleeper lay,
When tine whisper Of wings beside her
Waited her dreams away.
Is It bird? she wondered.
Lifting her startled head,
IS she heard the delicate fitting
Circle around her bed,
And anon against the easement
The sweep OF those wings outspread.
Ii was not the palpitant fiutter
OF some poor terrified thing
That beateih the bars q its prison,
And bruiseth its tender wing
Gut an eager. eXultant motion,
Glad a. the i'm pulse OF spring.
Tho flash of thought, and the listener
Had lighted ncr lamp anew.
And wide on the shaIOwy chamber
Its fullest radiance threw:
When straightway toward its shining
The beautiful Yisitant flew.
a moth, n marvel OF measure,
From tip to Tip Of it, wings,
Painted in colors rcspIenGent-
Li2htest and 1aire5t OF things;
Type of the Resurrection,
The angels own message it brlnTSi
Did the angel himself, descending
And passing through hamlet and town
To wasrn one :vnre !iie faithful.
Their =cTrow with Joy to crown,
Joncn with finger transccndent
That tin.est cradle brown:
There lay the chrysllis empty,
, Frau shell Of the past OutSOrn;
Here was the living creature
Evulting in beauty newborn,
And trembling a. & to utter
The truth Of the Easter morn!

The Artful Turtle.

1t may be safely asserted, that from
the highest to the lowest grade animals
have their own and wonderful devices to
prey on their natural enemies, or to pro-
cure their food. The turtle is a remark
able and. SUI 'ce sful fisher. The writer
had the curiosity to know how this SLOW
emily and slow amphibia lived, and found
to his ston;shment, in ninety-pound
specimens stomach, three trout, as they
are commonly called in the SOUTH but
which in Scality are bass. On close ex-
animation, whether they had been de-
voured dead or alive, l found that the
last had evidently not been caught by
his turtlcship more than twenty-four
hours, as it had not decomposed any,
showing the marks where it had almost
been bitten in two
The result of my search proved to me
that when the turtles appetite calls upon
him, he lays down in his favoritc fishing
place, closes his eyes, opens his mouth
to its fullest capacity, plays his angle
worm which is to all intents and pur-
poses, perfect counterpart Of a worm,
on the end of his tongue, and he is ready
for business. The game fish VIII oh is
out looking for worms with his habitual
rapidity fairly flies into the jaws of death.
Thus the turtle fishes until his appetite is
gratifed.
The fact that he lives on such fine
food gives his flesh that richness which
is SO highly priced by cpicures, and
which renders his soup SO highly priced.

The first iron vessel was launched in
1917, and is still in existence. But not
till 1882 did the work seriously begin.
At that time the Lloyds began to build
small iron steamers for short voyages.
A certain amount of prejudice had to be
overcome, for there were many doubts
as to its strength and buoyancy. Bat it
made its way, and the first successful
iron steamer made Transatlantic voyage
in 1s43, the Great Britain, launched by the
Great Western company. In those days
the Great Britain was rated as an unusu-
ally large sized ship. 1t was II ship of
3, 900 tons burden, and was an iron screw
steamer combining the new methods of
propulsion and construction. The voy-
age was successful, and the ship is still
in existence, and, till within few years
at least, ran to Australia. Her success
led to limitations in the English marine,
and in 1850 the Inman line was cstab-
lished between Liverpool and New York
of iron screw steamers. 1t had no profit
able nal contract, and was purely a
commercial undertaking, but under skill
full management has been very success
full. In the United States iron ship.
building has never taken root the way
it has in England. Americans began
early to build small iron steamers, and
do now, but only for coasting lines. We
only use iron in cases where we are en-
tirely cut off from competition, or where
we are driven to it, a. it is impossible to
use wood for much of the coasting ser.
vice.

Probably no concern in the country has ad-
hered more strictly to the determination to
achieve success by the liberal use of printers
ink than has the Brown Chemical Company of
Baltimore, Md. Starting business about five
years ago, they have expended over 81 100000
in the preparation and circulation of printed
matter more than half of which has been paid
for newspaper advertising. All this has been
done to make known the virtues of their cele-
brated Browns Iron Bitters.
As might be expected, very large sales have
resu ted from this enormous outlay. In fact,
Browns Iron 3itters is about as staple in many
drug stores rs is flour at the corner grocery.
Like all good things. Browns Iron Bitters has
been largely initiated. Tnere are unscrupu-
lous manufacturers who cater to just this sort
of trade, and some dealers are so lacking in
principle, that because a greater profit can be
made on fraudulent than on genuine medi-
cines, they are willing to deude the public by
pushing off other Tonic Medicines in place of
the genuine Browns Iron Bitters, which is I'M
doub. eddy one of the purest and best medicines
known. These frauds have been practiced so
extensively, that the Company, finding all
other means inadequate, have at last deter
mined to try little cold law to put stop
to them, and suits for heavy damages have
therefore been commenced. We wish the
Brown Chemical Company every success in
their suits, as it is high time those who
have pluck enough to carry large enterprise.
such as theirs to success, should be protect ted

and effort but by copying and counterfeiting

LIGHT AND SHADOW.

When twilight draws her silvery veil
Above the moonlit sea,
And phantom ships on white wings sail
Shoreward 50 peacefully,
While lowering angels guard and bless
This scene so calm below,
ltseemeth like the peacefulness
A human heart may know.
When darkness hides the sea and land,
And distant thunders roll,
While waves are shattered on the strand,
This thought steals DER my soul:
The night that broods above the sea,
The wrecks the wild winds blow,
Are like the woe and misery
A human heart may know.
