Care of Young Turkeys.

The best care for young turkeys and
ducks Is yOlks of hard boiled eqos and

white may be added. Continue This
Ior TWO or three weeks, occasionally
chopping onions fine and sometimes
sprlnklidg boiled eggs with black pep
per; then give rice, teacupful with
enough milk to just cover it, and boil
until the milk is evaporated. Put in
enough more to cover the rice again SO
that when bOilen down the second time
1t will be soft if pressed between the
hngers. Milk must not be used freely
as 1t will get too soft and the grains
VIII adhere together. Stir frequently
When boiled. Do not use water with
the rice, it forms paste and the chick
ems cannot swallow it. In cold. damn
weather half teaspoonful of cavenne
pepper in pint of -four worked with
lard enough to make it stick, together.
VIII protect them from the diarrhea'
This amount Of food is sufficient for
two meals for seventy five chicks. Give
all food in shallow tin pans. Boiled
milk and water with a little lime-wa-
ter IN which occasionally, is the drink
until the chicks are two or tbreo
months old, when loppered and butter
milk may take the place of the boiled
milk. Turkeys like best to roost on
trees. and in their absence artificial
roosts may be made by planting LONG
froked locust poles and laying Others
across the forks. They take to this
kind OF roost readily as they require
plenty of room.

Natural gas is wonderfully conven-
lent. clean and desirable fuel. but il has
drawbacks. The plant for introducing
It in towns and cities is costly; the
danger from explosion is proven to be
considerable, and the uncertainty of
a continuous supply makes it matter
OF speculative risk. The Standard
Oll Company expended a very consid-
cradle sum of money in piping gas
from the New York and Pennsviva1ia
wells to Buffalo some years ago but
we learn from the Courier that the sun.
ply is insufficient except for a limited
number OF consumers, and the antici-
pated advantage to manufacturing on
erations in that city has not been re-
allied. The Courier also saws that
though there is big gas well running
TO waste within twenty-five miles Of
the city no steps have been taken to
utilize It. The Standard Company is
probably sick of the experiment Of
long-distance piping.

In other counties, the ridiculous Gus

women lift or heave the men. The pro-

David T. Day, Chief Of the Division

GOLD AND SILVER.
The gold product was l,604,027
6ne ounces, valued at $50, l75, 900.
This IL about the same - in 1887,
