Cutaneous Diseases.

The most fatal of these diseases is the
chicken-pox, which, fortunately, does not
prevail in many localities. Sometimes
whitish-lookings sores come on the combs,
or assesses appear on the faceand other

in both cases is to place the birds in a
warm, dry room, and give a teaspoonful
of sulphur in the food, to every ten hens,

they become apparently in good health.

Preservation Of Poultry Manure.

Preservation of Poultry Manure.
Poultry droppings very quickly lose
their value if not carefully preserved, says
a writer in the Rural New Yorker. If the
coops were cleaned daily, instead of oc-
casionally, the gain in value OF the man.
ure would compensate for so doing, as
the droppings contain a larger portion OF
valuable matter that readily escapes
than many suppose. It has been recon-
mended to compost the droppings with
dry earth; but dry earth, though an alb
sorbent, does not wholly preserve them.
Nor will plaster answer fully for that pur
pose. The best dry absol bent is kainit,
and, as it is ofitself an excellent fertilizer,
the cost need not be considered 1t is
we'll known that water absorbs many
times it volume Of ammonia, and that it
quickly causes allsubstances in the shape
of manure to decompose and change
their forms and conditions. IT, then, in
stead of keeping the droppiDgs perfectly
dry we keep them moist with soap-suds,
we not only cause them to decompOse
(Which is really desirable,) but the water
absorbs and arrests the ammonia and
prevents it's escape. The soap-subs
combine, also, with the manure, first
forming fat acids, which in turn react on
the insoluble matter of the manure, and
render it more available as plant food.
1t is not suggested to keep the droppings
wet, but only moist. They may be mixed
with dry earth, if preferred, with a small
quantity of kainit added, the whole to
be saturated with sOap-suds, and kept
moist afterwards, using additional suds
as the heap increases. For this purpose
q large bin or box should be provided, or
barrels may be used, but under cover, as
u protection against rain and sun.
Poultry manure and night-sOil, though
very rich in nitrogen, lose by exposure,
and when allowed to become dry the loss
is quite an item. Analysis shows this to
be the case with night-soil, which seldom
compares favorably with animalmanure,
although it isknown to reproduced from
food that is readily more nutritious than
that fed to animals. Ii is could be pre-
served daily in fresh condition, SO us to
absorb and retain the liquids and volatile
matter, it would give better results.
The same applies to poultry droppings.
If allowed to become dry under the roost
they decrease in value, but if preserved in
q fresh condition much of the nutritious
matter will be saved. II those who desire
to save the droppngs will try the method
suggested, keeping them moist with
strong soap-suds, the ammoniacal odor
which will greet their olfactories when
about to apply the manure to land will
be convincing.

The weakest part goes first.
For instance, some birds from one yard
are sold to two persons who treat them
exactly the same as regards food, but one
supplies his fowls with grit, whereas the
other does not. The formers lot of fowls
are in good health, while the others are
dropping and dying. Only a wooden
fence parts these fowls. Then in what
does the difference of health consist? Be-
cause one lot is we'll supplied with what
nature demands and the others are not.
Those who live in the country may
think this article all very well for town
residents, but they do not consider that
their fowls require any. However, in
some country places, although the birds
have an unlimited run, they have no
grit suitable, for it is not sharp. Very

years, and has been FUSED up" The
fowls therefore become very weakly, and

and pick up the grit. ...
Where there are number of fowls run

therefore, the greater Importance it is to
provide them with grit. 1t can be easily
ascertained whether they have sufficient

die or are killed, and examining the quail

stones are sharp it is IL sign that they
are we'll supplied. II, however, the edges
are blunt and round, it is proof that
the poultry require sharp grit Chickens
are often put out in grass field where
there is not particle of sharp grit, and
the owner can not make it out why they
do not thrive better. Sharp grit is to
poultry what teeth are to the human

a Unique Way OF Securing tho Surrcndep

In the course of his tour of inspection
thfsugh the Caucasus last autumn
Prince Dondukof-K passed close
to the village of Starry Yoort where q
native Colonel was not long previously
murdered out Of revenge, and where tho
murderers were being screened from the
authorities by the Inhabitants. As thew
refused to give up tho assassins tho
Prince ordered all tho inhabitants of tho
village to be assembled on his route two
miles off. Here the Prince refused to
accept their greeting of bread and salt.
and rated them right soundly in tho
scv.-eSt terms of the Russian yocab-
ulary. AT the samo time he ordered
their elders to be arrested on the spot.
and gave them ono month in which to
surrender tho murdcrers. If thew re-
malned recalcltrant at the end of that
term the sovcres5 punishment was to bo
inflicted. With tho usual obstinacy of
the Chechenlis tribes, who continue
their opposition to Russia as long as. if
not longer than, any of the other tribes
or the Caucasus, the murderers were not
given up at the end of the month.
whereupon military execution" was
ordered to be made. At daybrea tho
village was surrounded by Gordon of
troops, and all the inhabitants we're dis
armed and forbidden ever to carry arms
again. Adetachmento of troops were then
quartered in the village, and 1900 rubles
was exacted for the benefit Of the muir
