Credit the Fowls.

This is the timo fyear when we
don't care to talk very much about
chickens. 1t is prominently the
season for purchases; grain to buy,
meal and bran, and cracklings,
ground bone, and all the list of
things that go into boxes and bins
for the fowls winter feed; and the
very days, too, when We come in
from n foraging bout among the
deserted nests, with small returns
in the way of eggs. Yes, this is
the season to keep very still regar-
ding poultry. unless one turns he,
back on the hen house, aud takes
out her account book. Then the
accounts turn, to be sure, and we
smile blandly over the profit side
of the business. If one wishes to
know anything about the profits
of poultry raising, she must, of
necessity, keep close accounts. 1t
will never do to 'guess at the
number of eggs and fowls consum-
ed by the family. It is quite lit
tie enough to do for our feathered
caterers. to credit them ut market
rates, for their products, for we
ali know that the fowls and eggs
taken from ones own yards for
family use are far superior to
those that have baen jaunted about
through the sun and dust and sold
at last, at The market stall or gro
Gerry. So say again, before reckon
ing up the debit and credit side of
biddy's account, be sure to add SO
many dozen (you will be surprised
1.-THE number) eggs and so many
fowls. Total-well quite round
little sum. Now add up and see if
you don't say poultry raising pays.

Butter and Freight Charges.

There are many reasons for pre-
dieting a vast increase In the dairy
industry of the Western States. A
prominent one is the relative cost
of transporting butter and other
farm produce. 1t need cost little
more to transport a pound of %
cent butter to New York, than a
pound of l cent corn or 5 cent hog
Butter is the most condensed farm
product entering largely into hui
man food. While it costs nearly
ooe-half of the value of corn to
transport it from the western farm
to the seaboard, it should not take
more than one fifteenth of the val
ne of butter. The present difference
however, in the price of good but
ter in an Illinois or Iowa village,
and in New York City is out of
proportion to any possible trans
portation charges. This is largely
due to the deterioration which a
badly made and improperly pack
ed product undergoes in transit,
making it necessary for the ship
per to have considerable margin to
provide against losses thereby.
With well made creamery butter,
there is 10 such discrepancy in
price. With the manufacture of a
better article, and the large in
crease of product which will fol-
low the partial suppression of Boz
gus butter, better mean; of trans
portation and packing will be de-
yised, and the western dairyman
will receive an increased price for
his product. The tendency of the
times toward cooperation will also
cause more butter to be shipped by
the origininal producers, thus &C.
curing eastern prices, minus the
freight
