GRASSES AND WEEDS FOR FOWLS.

Domestic fowls of all kinds will eat
large quantity Of young grass and tender
weeds il they have access to such food.
But they do not like old and tough herb
age any more than humans like old and
tough vegetables. Whenever it is neces-
sary to-shut any fowls in the yard, they
should always be supplied with generous
amount Of green and tender herbage.
Sometimes pull few suckers from the
growing corn in the garden, and cut the
leaves and tender stems into small bits
about one fourth of an inch long, or
gather few stems of the irrepressible
garden purslanc (Which is very succu-
lent, and tender clover, or pig weeds,
and cut them up fine. Fowls will devour
such food ravenously when the pieces are
Of suitable size to be swallowed.
A pair of sheep shears may be kept
near the door, so that no time is lost
searching for some instrument to cut up
coarse food. Leaves of cabbage and
other vegetables are all cut into bits not
larger than kernels of Indian corn. As
fowls have no teeth, they cannot bite off
pieces of tough food. But if they can
get hard and tough pieces into the giz-
zard, that miniature mill, with the gravel
stones in it, will soon reduce food to u
fine pulp. When crop-plants in the gar
den have attained n size so large that
fowls will not injurc them by stepping
on them or by nipping off the tender
tops, the entire flock may be allowed to
run ad libitum in the garden, for one or
two hours only, each day. They will
pick up many insects, collect new sup
ply of gravel stones, and fill their crops
with tender herbage e.-Ame"iean A9ricui-

MAKING LEAN PORK.

According to Professor o. W. Atwator
there are two things for the pork maker
TO do--frst, to make leaner pork, and
then to get better access to foreign mar
kets. Leaner pork can be obtained, he
says, by the use of nitrogcnous foods,
skim milk, bran, shorts, cotton seed meal
If it can be advantagcously utilized -
beans, peas, clover, alfalfa and other le-
guminous plants. 1t is, however, i'm.
practicable for many pork producers to
change their system of feeding at once.
The bulk of the pork in the country is,
and for some time must be, manufactured
from corn, but where nitrogenous foods
are available they should be used, and
where they are not available the attempt
should be made TO introduce them. Here
is strong reason for experiments with
leguminous forage plants; beside helping
to make lcancr pork, they have the ad-
vantage that with them poor hay, straw
and cornstalks can be utilized, and that
they make rich manure. .--Ne,o York Wit

wINTERING ONIONS.

The novice never, and the expert sell
dom, makes much money by holding per-
ishable products for spring sale. Shrink
age and loss by frost and decay Is usually
much greater than covered by the ad-
vance in prices. II prices in the fall are
at all acceptable, sell without delay; but
market the prizetaker onions, anyway.
Still, there are exceptions to all rules,
and iD certain localities or under certain
circumstances it may pay well to store
and hold for spring sales such varieties
as Danvers Yellow and perhaps Wethers-
field Red aud White Globe, etc. There
is party over in Canada, not very far
from here, who grows quite number of
acres of onions every year, and he Invari-
ably holds them until spring, and makes
money by so doing. OF course I was
anxious to learn how he winters such big
crops, and made inquiry. He writes me
as follows: "For the purpose OF keep
ing onions during winter, we have erect
ed two large rooms in the end of our
barn, above ground. These rooms arc
almost frost-proof in the coolest wealth
er; are provided with double windows at
each end, and double doors at entrance
from driveway on barn floor. All the
walls have a dead air space. Building
paper is tackled ON the inside of each
boarding that forms the hollow space.
Onions are not put into these rooms in
bulk, but In thousands of Slated bushel
boxes. The windows are kept constant
ly open, except in very cold weather
The idea is to put in dry, well-cured
stock, and place it in such way that II
may always be airing at suitable times,
and yet be secure against low degrees ol
temperature. ."--Neto York Observer.

DEATH BY ELECTRICITY.
The Case of the Condemned Japanese
Argued Before the U. 8. Supreme
Court.


Washington, November 22.-The case Of
the japanese Shibuya Jugiro, who is con-
fined in Sing Sing prison, New York, under
sentence of death by means OF electricity,
was argued before the United States
supreme court yesterday. The case
comes here on appeal from decis-
ion of the United States circuit court for the
southern district of New York, declin-
ing to grant the writ Of habeas corpus,
which counsel for Jugiro had sought
to obtain, TO compel Warden Brush to re.
lease the prisoner. The question at issue is
the validity of the New York electrocution
law, and the case is IA sequel to the Kemmler
execution.
Roger NJ Sherman, who was counsel for
Kemmler and who now represents Jugiro,
bases his application for a writ of habeas
corpus on the ground that the execution of
Kemmler demonstrated that electricity was
not an instantaneous and painless method
of death II is asserted that New York law
violates the provision Of the federal constitu-
ton forbiding cruel and unusual punish
mcnt, and is for that reason uhconstitu-
tioDal and void. Attorney General Tabor
represented the state and Mr.. Sherman the
prisoner.

FEED FOR rArrESrSo AN OLD COW.

1t is not wise to keepa COW too long
unless she is of extra value for milking
or butter, and then consequently for her
calves, when it will hardly pay to feed
her for beef. When an ordinary COW is
desired to be fattened this should be done
at the age of eight years. The feeding
for fattcning should be Of the best; the
best hay, with US much cornmeal as the
animal will cat, given four times day
two or three quarts being given at each
feed as it may be digested. Hay is given
twice daily. A small ration of roots OF
cabbagcs or apples, or even cold boiled
potatoes, will help considerably in the
fattening. The feeding should not be
delayed, as more flesh and fat will be
made this side of the new year than after
it.--.Neto York Times.
