HOW 10 MAKE HENS LAY.

This topic certainly interests all pOul-
trymen, and more especially those who
have not succeeded very well in this
branch of the business. One of the first
requisites is to have a love for the work
and take much interest in it, for if there
is a lack in this respect the fowls are
quite liable to be neglected 1t is, of
course, important that the hen-house
should be clean and cOmmodiOus, also
well ventilated, and situated SO there
will be plenty of sunlight. should new
er advise beginner to start in with more
than - or 20 hens, for often he gets tired
of his new occupation and throws up the
whole thing; and, besides this, being
Gus mistakes in some direction, and con-
sequently lose a part of his flock. If he
succeeds in his venture he may prottably
augment his flock should his hen-house be
large enough, and continue to do so grad
ually until he has as many as he can
manage conveniently. 1t is not best to
experiment much. and at all events do
not put in more than you can afford to
lose, unless the experiment be very
promising one. As to feeding, one should
observe very carefully in what manner
different diets affect his breed as regards
eggs, and select the one which seems best

perties for producing eggs. the one

means to imply by this that the food

such as damaged grains, but that the
food given should be something the pOul-
tryman raises or which can be got cheap
er than some other variety of no greater
value. 1t is conceded by all that meat
and bones are Indispensable for poultry,
and think the cheapest way to provide
those is to buy beef creatures head of
a neighboring butcher. This costs but a
trtiing sum, and, chopped and given
each morning, will prove very beneficial
to the hens. - Cor. y. +. Farmer.

WHAT A COW SHOULD YIELD.

Something depends of course upon the
kind of cow, but no COW is good one
that does not yield $500 quarts of milk
in one year, or about seven quarts Il
day for 3G5 DAYS. She will be dry Dor
ton of the time, and of course yield
more when fresh than towards the close
of her milking period, but she should
not give less than seven quarts daily for
every day in the year. The milk should
produce about 200 pounds of butter, or
a pound to every II and half quarts
of milk, which at 25 cents pound the
whole year, would yield $50. The value
of the calf depends on its breeding, while
the skim milk fed to the pigs and the
manure should realize at least SO more,
making SO. We may safely take one
half for costs, leaving 80 as profit.
The sum fixed as profit, however, may
vary, as the price of food is cheaper in
some localities than in others. Dairy
men differ rs to the amount of profit a
COW should give. Some claim a. much
as $50 year, but such dairymen sell
directly to consumers at fair price. The
fairest estimate is made upon the practice
of skimming the milk and raising pigs
which will increase the profit, especially
if good breed of hogs be used in con-

marble Canon.

ontario RECORD.
The rock around the canon seems to
bs loose schist, mixed somewhat with
crystalline limestone of grayish color.
The pure schist, or granite, probably
also show traces of carbonate of lime.
There is an outcrop of marble in the
main canon west of the central mesa;
several pieces Zone of considerable size)
have fallen down into the bed of the
stream, and the deposit seems to run of
to the southeast. The most striking out.
crop, however, is in the ravine between
the two mesas. On each side Of the ra-
vine there is cliff of white rock, which
has been worked enough to show its
quality. The vein, 80 far as exposed,
Is some thirty feet wide, and continues
off to the northeast towards Cucamonga
cafion, outcroppings having been found
for some distance. The rock is pure
white, highly crystalized, fine grained
marble. which takes polish that COM
pares with the fine Italian marble.
Pieces have been on exhibition in Los
Angeles and Chicago, and are pronounc-
ed by experts as OF superior quality for
building or statnary purposes. At pres.
emit the face of the deposit seems scanned
and weathered, but good sized blocks
have bsen taken out, and there is every
reason to expect that as the outer por-
ton is cut away q massive wall of pure
marble will be reached.
Aside from the value of the deposit of
marble for ornamental or building pur-
poses, the refuse stone. 10 quarrying,

In addition to the above, DIR. Fair
child has a iine stream of water, which
he has brought out of the canon further
up by means of wooden fume, which
is valuable thing in itself. The Doctor
has in contemplation, in a short time, a
number Of improvements, supplementary
to the working of his marble quarry,
among which is the building of fine
residence on the brow Of the mesa, over
looking the valley and the marbled ra-
vine, and also the planting OF citrus fruit

Solanum Tuber0sum.

A new potato has recently been dis.
covered in bolivia by Mr.. SAGE. The
New York Star says Of it: "The value
of alimentati m of this new tuber may
be judged from the facts that it is the
most farinaceous of its species and yields
four crops per annum. The Indians
esteem it highly, and call it papa purcka.
These potatoes grow numerous bulbs,
ten to fifteen in bunch from one seed
ling, and the manifold stalks are covered
from base to top with soft beautiful
leaves, brilliant with lovely yellowish
green. The tubers weigh from 100 to
250 grsmmes and contain 20 per cent. of
fecula and ~ per cent. of water. The
American General Section of the Uni.
versal Union of Culinary Art, at its last
session, made several culinary expert.
ments with the new potato, which
proved very satisfactory"

inQton do not seem to be alarmed at any
such prospect. Referring to the matter,
Treasurer Jordan said recently;
"You can rest assured that no bank
will carry out that threat. First, because
the situation is not at all stringent, and
they are in no danger of being driven to
the wall or even cramped by the bond
calls; secondly, because there are no
State laws under which these banks can
reorganize proftably. If any of the
States had laws under which these banks
could issue currency, there might be
some temptation to go cut of the system,
although l doubt if their circulation
would be accepted generally. L am in.
clined to believe that these banks would
not for good deal lose their status as
National banks, for the re son that much
of their business would 60 to the remain
ing National banks. This would be es-
pecially the case with small depositors,
whose suspicious are easily aroused, and
to whom the word National in a bank 8
title has always seemed great protee.
ton for their small investments. Again,
money now commands S and 6 per cent.
and the banks cannot afford to retire
their circulation when it is as valuable
as that. There never was time when
the banks were making as much money
as now. If money were as cheap as it
was some months ago, there might be
some sense in these reports, but it is non.
sense to talk Of it now. 1t is proposed
by the Treasury Department that the
forced substitution of other bonds for the
called 3 per cents. shall not be pushed
very rapidly, and that plenty of time be
given the banks to make the change.
The call bonds deposited by the banks
will be the last taken up for liquidation,
and 20 bank will be crippled by these
calls"
Notwithstanding the above, quite a
mum berof N National banks, weunderstand,
have already given notice Of Withdrawal
from the National system, on the ground
that banknote circulation based upon
the present price Of 4's or 4as would not
pay, and so they prefer to give up their
circulation altogether.

The new issue of $40 silver certificates
has already appeared, and the ones and
twos will be hurried forwa,d Rs rapidly
as possible. The ives will be the last to
come out, as they are less needed. The
vignette of Gen. Grant will adorn their
face.
There are now nearly sixty million sill

expected to be issued, as it is thought
they will take the place of some of the
larger denomination of greenbacks.
There need be no fear of any danger.

for the further withdrawal of National
bank notes brought about by successive
bond calls. Besides. the circulation of
small silver certificates will naturally
lead to the disuse OF standard silver dol.
lars in greater or lesser amount. Hence
the present volume of current money
will not, we think. be greatly affected
by the new certificates either one way or
the other.
The cause of the unwonted activity in
railroad building at the present time is
thus explained by the Wall Street Ne,os
In the early part of this year many rail.
road companies were able to borrow
large amounts of money at low rates OF
interest. As one result of this, it is no.
ted that in July and August more new
railroad was constructed than in the

tion will continue at the same rate, for

Of this year show 3,475 miles built. 1t

road construction for the country is
about 5000 miles per year.
