A NEW ENGLAND POULTRY
TOWN.

The town of Little Compton, r. L.,
according to the NeD England
Farmer, though secluded, contains
important and large colonies of poul-
try. All are farmers but the tilling
of the soil is in the poultry farm in
terest. The largest poultry farm
contains 200 acres, Of which fifty
acres are devoted to the range of
fowls and chicks. Fifty hens com
prise a colony and occupy a separate
house. Here they roost and lay.
The number of fowls on this farm
is 1000, and is made up of Plymouth
Rocks and Light Dramas. One man
attends to all and has ample time.
The yield Of eggs is about 1000
dozen a month, and sent to market
twice a week to Boston, New York
and Providence. One farmer re-
ceives all the eggs produced in the
neighborhood and sends to market.
In the "busy season" 5000 dozen a
week is not unusual.
The food in summer is corn, barley
and other grains; in winter, cooked
food, meal and vegetables with
beef scraps and ground bone. The
cost per fowl is about one dollar per
year and the profit on each is about
one dollar. Feathers find a ready
market at 8 to II cents per pound.
During the year 1884, the price of
eggs received by the farmers yer
aged 224 cents per dozen. On the
large farm the hen as an egg-hatcher
has been discarded. Four artificial
incubators had produced before the
first Of June 1000 chicks. Artificial
brooders are also used. Fifty to 70
per cent. of fertile eggs were Matched.
The unfavorable weather in the early
spring reduced the average lower
than that of last year. A man who
understands can give all attention
necessary to an incubator in thirty
minutes daily. Goslings and ducks
are Matched by incubators and the
result is satisfactory.
About fifty stock geese are kept,
from which are raised annually 300
to 600 green geese for market. The
geese are fattened in pens, and the
noise by 500, all speaking at once, has
no music in it mile away. The cot
tage of the superintendent, however,
is near the goose pens, but like the
man who lives next door to a steam
gong, he is not disturbed by the up
roar. A professional goose plucker
car strip twenty geese a day. He is
armed with a leather thumb and a
sharp-bladed knife.

need be given, and the slightly sa-
line qualities of the buttermilk will
be advantageous to the fowls. But
termilk is richer than skinned milk,
and is, of course, better for the lay
ing hens, in moderate quantities,
while for %fattening purposes it can be
TED constantly with the best results.
The farmer who has plenty of but
termilk will find that it pays better
to give it to his fowls than to any
other stock on the farm. The but
termilk that would grow a pig will
grow enough poultry to buy all the
pork an ordinary famiL~needs.

giving it to the pig or the poulf>Y,

B~UTTERMILK FOR FOWLS.

A contemporary, writing in the
same direction in relation to the use
of buttermilk and curds for fowls,
heretofore treated of in the Farm,
Field and Stockman, says: Milk IN
all forms may be profitably fed to
poultry, and we have many times
spoken of the economy of feeding
skinned milk to laying hens. On a
farm where dairying is carried on
it will be found that buttermilk also
may be fed the fowls, and pay better
than by disposing of it in any other
way. 1t will decidedly increase the
egg production of the flock, and
after a few daysit will be found that
the fowls will look eagerly for the
appearance ofthe dish the buttermilk
Is usually brought in.
When buttermilk is fed no water

MANURE EAST AND WEST.

The New England Farmer upon the
question of the application of ma
nure says most farmers draw what
manure they have on their poorest
land, thinking the best rich enough
to be profitably cropped without it.
The result is a fairly good crop from
a large acreage, but with low prices,
little than if any more than the
necessary expense Of growing it. The
reform here needed is getting the
poorest land in grass, where it will
be least expense, and will be, how
ever slowly, growing more fertile.
Then apply what manure can be
got, on the best land, grow large
and use the profits on those in
Approving the remainder Of the
faym.
The best practice in the West is
then reverse of this. The meadows
are Idressed with the in
autumn. The coarser portions are
rakeH off in the spring; this is piled
up I'd rot, and thus the meadow is
fertilked when worked to small
grainEor corn in the rotation, these
crops Icome out all right.

Can we ever 60 back in all this strife?

Will time pick up the moments lost?
VIII the thread of friendship be Joined

When once it be broken, whate'er it

When our blinded eyes will ~bsopened

And our banks which have Arifted from

Will be peacefully anchored side by

Then the tangled skeins will be smooth

Our tolls and tears shall all be DER,
Then will our tired hearts know rest.
And severed one shall part no more.

A stepfather,s Desperate Work.

BOSTON, June 20.-Mrs. Catherine Alyerez lives at No. 8 Henry street, East Boston, with her three children and keeps several boarlers, most of whom are her relatives. Her son Edward, aged twenty four, was sent to the house of correction Friday for stealing articles from William Garrow, ore of the boarders. Mrs. Alverez thought Garrow and another boarder named Lorenzo Lopez, who is about seventy years old and stapfather of Mrs. Alverez, ought to have saved her son from imprisonment, and since Friday has frequently alluded to the matter. At break fast this morning she began tirade against Lopez, when the latter sprang to his feet, shouting: ''This will end alli' seized case knife and made savage onslaught upon Mrs. Alverez The first blow struck her in the stornaeh intiicting dangerous wound.

HyDR0PHORIA IN MILK

A Whole Family Afflicted By Drinking
 MILK From a Cow That Was Bitten
 By Mad Dog.
 CINCINNATI, June 20.-The people in the neighborhood of Hebron, across the river in Boone county, Ky, are much excited over a case of hydrophobia in the family of farm CT there. A dog belonging in the house went mad last week. Without knowledge of it's condition it was allowed to run around as usual. It finally bit milch COW. The COW showed no signs of weakness and the milk was used as formerly. Yesterday the COW showed unmistakable signs of hydropho- bia. About the same time child of the farmer showed similar signs. The symptoms are most pronounced and the sufferings of the child are most terrible. Two other members of the family similarly afiict- ed, but there is hope of their recovery.

THE RED CROSS sOUIETY.
Its Real Work Begins Where Th
 Work of AuarchY Leaves OG.

Work of Anarchy Leaves on.
 WASHINGTON, June 20.-Miss Clara Bar ton, president of the American Association of the Red Cross, tonight furnished to the press the following card respecting the re- cent doings and utteranees of ''The Brothers of the Red Cross'' of Chicago:
 WASHINGTON, June 20 1886. To the people of the United States:
 After all which has been written about and done by the American Association of the National and International Red Cross during the last seven years further explana- tion could scarcely seem necessary under any circumstances. But observing with pain that body of men recently announcing themselves in Chicago the Broth CTS of the Red Cross are giving utterance to language both shocking and dangerous to the community, and to which utterances sufficient attention is paid to be repeated by the press at large, word through the press may be due to the people as well as to the Red Cross itself It will be remembered that one of the first public moves following the recent riots in Chicago was a telegraphic dispatch from the Red Cross expressing sympathy and offering aid, if needed, to the wounded policemen of that city, which dispatch was properly and gratefully responded to. The province however intentional, of an assumed guise is to mislead and in view of this we beg the people to bear in mind that the real and Ie- gitimats Red Cross of this country knows nothing of this body of men; that it does not wound, but seeks td help whom others have wounded; that today it marks every mili- tary hospital in the civilized world that by national law it is worn by every officer and every attendant man or woman serving the sick and wounded of any field; that being of the government it is true to the government; that being of the people it is true to the people; that being of humanity it is true to humanity; that by the articles of the treaty under which it exists and it's own principles it can never be aggressive; it can never assimilate with anarchy, hostilities or violence, but when and where the threatened work of such as these leaves off the work of the real Red Cross must forever begin.

 A British Steamer Goes Ashore, but All
 On Board arc Taken Off.
 NEWPORT, R. l., June 20.-The British steamer Miranda, from New York for Hali- fax, went ashore on the west side of Point Judith Saturday night and lays in bad po- sition with her stern high out of water. The steam tug Lockhart and schooner were near her this morning rendering assistance.
 NARRAGANsETT PIER, R. l., June 20.- Captain John E. Binden of the steamer Mi randa of Liverpool, ashore abreast of Point Judith, made the following statement to reporter: ''The Mirada was built in New Castle, England, 1884, is registered at 733 tons, was bound from New York to Halifax and belongs to the Red Cross line. She had on board cargo of flour, butter and general provisions. She was partially insured. Had been commanded by me since she was built and was in every respect i1st-class passenger steamer. We were twelve hours out from New York. I went below at Watch Hill, then we were running about eleven and half knots an hour. My orders were to keep Point Judith on the port bow not less than mile distant. We go over this course every two weeks and always took the same course, east three fourths north. This would bring us outside the buoy. We were steaming against the tide, which ought to have carried us out. It is a mystery to me. The officer must have been mistaken in his reckoning. came up when I heard the. steamer strike. We must have lost our lead. We attempted to pull her off. I think she can be got off if the weather continues pleasant. The steamer rests on a rock and is leaking badly. Light Keeper Whaley and Captain Knowles were unremitting in their attention to the passengers. It was one of the finest moonlight nights I ever Thn va1syyn o111o O GtQor0ar struck at 1 a. m. The tide was about half out and the soundings showed 16 1-2 feet of water. Hazard G. Knowles took teams and conveyed the passengers forty in number to the pier where they were entertained by the proprietors of the Revere and Metatoxel Ho- tels. An extra train took a part of the pas sengers to Boston, but some remained over night" The passengers all agree that Cap tain Binden was kind and courteous and did all in his power to aid them.
