Total, 80 states.
New England and eastern proup.


1t appears, therefore. that in thirty-nine
of the states and territories 8, 7S2 miles of
new railway, representing, apparently, 212
line. were added. As few of the lines lie
in more than one state the number of really
separate lines thus constructed Is not quite
as many as 212, although in general the ex-
tensions referred TO lie in only one state
each.
In respect to new mileage Georgia is In
the lead, having already added 1928 miles
upon twelve lines, while rocky Montana, it
seems. follows next with 3l2 miles on eight
lines, and North Carolina comes next with
226 miles on eleven lines. Washington
shows 207 miles on fifteen lines, but this
does not fairly indicate the great activity
which is going on in this new state, and
which will result In very much
greater addition of mileage before
the end of the year. Alabama, which
has added POI miles on thirteen lines, is the
only other state which has thus far reached
200 miles, although Texas has come close
with 1873 miles, and will have a good deal
more to show before the year ends. The
only states and territories from which no
new track is thus far reported are New
Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut, Delaware, New Mexico, North
Dakota, Nevada and Utah.
Considered by groups of states, it appears
tnaC the nine states Wnlcn may De clasSed
as outhern show by far the greatest activity,
having completed l ,443 miles on IS lines,
while the six northwestern states and the
seven in the southwest aggregate 1882 miles
on SO lines, or considerably less than the
nine southern states. The New England
and eastern stare the central group and
the Pacific group all have done very much
less construction than those in the south and
southwest.
Compared with the same period of last
year, the work of the nine months just
passed indicates an increase, according to
onr records, of 40 miles.

L OF MANURE.

The value of manure varies as to
character of feed and locality. In som
places it is difficult, if not impossible, to
get it except by feeding animals and
thus making a home supply. How to do
this most economically is a question
worth studying. The kinds of food that
are best for fattening are not also best
for making. Corn is an excellent
food for making fat, but it does not make
rich manure. It is mainly starch or car
bon, which for plants is mostly furnished
by the carbonic acid of the air. Wheat
bran is excellent for making growth, andif
fed to animals that have completed their
growth, will give most of its phosphate
to the manure pile. At present prices of
~cotton-seed meal and linseed meal, they
will return a good deal of their cost to
the manure pile, if the manure made from
them is estimated at the same value as
are nitrogen and phesphates in COM
mercial fertilizers. It is better to buy
such feeds now and have rich home
made manures, than to wait until the
growing season, and expend the money
for commercial manures alone. There
is some profit in feeding animals if done
rightly, besides the ant they make

q great benefit is derived from 8

of the money paid out, if he purchases,
and at the end of the year he understands.
as never before, the amount of good liv-
ing which the garden supplies, and he
would conclude that there is more money

Let him make up his mind to work it at
least as well as he does the other portions
of his farm, and he willfnd, ifhe carries
out this resolution, and keeps an ac-
count of the results, that there is no
other portion of the farm which furnishes
SO much of the family's living, therefore
hone that ''pays" SO we'll. That this is
the fact, every n who has a good gar
den will tell you. It is also a fact that
those who have the best gardens appre-
elate them most. Poor gardens are only
to be tolerated on the principle tnat
'thalf a loaf is better than no loaf at ALL"
Not only does a good garden represent
greater quantity, but superior quality, for
fine vegetables cannot be grown in a gafs

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Always keep ahead of your work.
The 'beautiful enow" makes a poor
covering for farm machinery.
The most profitable way to market
oats is in the shape of good grade draft
horses.
Scrub stock is not profitable, and the
scrub horse is as poor property as a
scrub cow.
Grapes do not pay as well as strawber-
ries, but they pay 200 per cent. better
than farm crops.
No two farms are alike, hence the best
results in farming require a careful,
special study of each farm.
Rabbits eat off the branches of trees,
and if numerous consume the entire
tree. They can be shot or poisoned.
Tarred paper placed around the tree
loosely protects from rabbits and mice,
but tar should not come in too close con-
tact with the trees.
Hot salt water is good for infested
roosts-insect powder for body lice
keep fighting them hard at first and they
will finally yield the ground.
While many still adhere to the told
hen" in Matching and raising chickens,
the incubator is the method that is to be
used in all large hatcheries of the future.
We feed much bran to horses and cat
tie, as it is wholesome and makes rich
manure. Cotton seed meal is not liked
by our stock, but is worth all it costs as
a fertilizer. Linseed meal is preferable
as feed.
Moderate ventilation in the hen house
should continue right on. Remember
we say moderate" not a draught or
excessive airing. You will learn how
much is necessary if you are a thought
full breeder.
Have you ornamental shrubs about
your homeg If not, plan to plant them
in groups or borders in the spring. They
cost but little and make the place look
homelike. How is the lawn fourishing2

more quiet and contented; do rot WHY

ALI should aim at the best possible way
of managing their stocks.
Spread manure on your fields now.
The fertility will wash down where the
plants can make use of it at once when
spring opens. There is no fear of waste
By spreading in winter, and much time
is gained by doing the work at q season

Large Shipments of Birds.

Mr.. Emile scheuerman shippedat one
time nearly 5000 birds of several differ
emit varieties to New York city, from
which place they viii be exported to Eu.
rope. The shipment comprised sea
pigeons and several varieties of terms,
varying in size, the largest beingsabout
the size of a ommon pigeon and the
smallest about as large as a martin. The
prevailing colors Of these birds areiwhite
and pearl in light and dark shades, the
points of the wings and tails being tipped
with black. These birds are killed on
Sand and Pettibois Islands, where they
are partly prepared by ever girls en-
ployed BY Mr.. Scheuerman. They are
then shipped to this city, and the. finish
ing touches are put on accordingly the
most approved methods known to the
taxidermists, by Mr.. Scheuermanfand his
assistant, Mrs. Mamie Campbell. The
birds are prepared whole, retaining all
the beauty Of the plumage. These birds
are for use in the milliner's art, being
used to adorn the hats and bonnets OF
fashionable ladies. Some are dyed,
while Others are used in their natural
plumage. In response to questions, Mr..
Scheuerman said he had been engaged IL
this business for nearly two years, with
much success. There are only two other
persons engaged in the business Ia the
South, one having headquarters at New
orleans and the other &C Charleston.
He learned taxidermy from a gentleman
who had formerly been connected with
the Smithsonian Institute. The business

CARE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS.

b No building on the farm pays better
Than a good Toulouse. It should be SO
convenient of access that there need be no
excuse for leaving farm implements ex-
posed to the weather when not used.
Properly cared for, many implements
that now last only a few years ought to
be serviceable so long as the farmer lived
ito need them. Besides, a tool that has
not been rusted, warped and cracked by
exposure will work as well the second

many farms tools are so much injured by
being left out of doors that after the
first season they cost more for repairs
