A Good Tonic for Fowls.

Probably the best tonic for fowls, says American Agriculturist. is the Douglass mixture: Take one pound of sulphate of Iron and two ounces of sulphuric acid and dissolve ill one gallon of water Add one tablespoonful of this mixture to one gallon of drinking water for the birds
 Remove the droppings from the poultry houses every morning instead of once or twice a week, as is often directed. If this practice were strictly adhered to there would be less disease amorg poultry and better results generally.
 Gull the fowls very closely. It will not pay to winter disqualified birds There is more success with fewer birds and higher prices.

Fattening the Goose's Liver.

Little does the over fed sybarite know
what cruelty is often practiced 80 that
his dainty palate may be sufficiently
tickled. Harper's Bazaar has this to say
concerning pate de foie gras: Every.
body knows that the pate de foie gras OF
Strasburg is the best In the world, but
very few of us have more than a vague
idea Of the methods employed for enlarg-
ing the livers of the geese from which il
is made. Now the liver Of the goose SO
trained, if we may use the expression,
is twelve times as large as nature in
tended it to be. In order to obtain this
result the unfortunate geese are sub
jected to torments unknown even to the
early Christians. The first thing done is
to nail the feet of the geese fast to
planks, 80 that they may not arrest the
desired tumefaction Of the liver by ever
the slightest movement. Secondly, their
eyes are put out, that no glimpse of the
world they have left may disturb them.
Finally, they are crammed with nuts, a
delicacy of which they are extremely
fond, but they are not allowed to drink
a drop of water, although they suffer
such tortures from thirst that they utter
piercing cries Of agony."-The Epoch.
