increasing the Manure supply.

The supply OF manure may be easily
doubled by gathering up the wastes OF
the barn-yard and the swamps and
other coarse matters, which are in
creased in value by mixture with the
manure in che yards. or by composing
with lime. Abundance of absorbent
matters are required to hold the liquid
manure and prevent waste Of it. The
best OF all absorbents is dry swamp
muck. 1t Will hold twice its weight OF
liquid, and, il properly used, saves the
almost unavoidable loss of the liquid
manure which will occur under the most
careful management without the use OF
plenty of absorbents. Thousands OF
farmers purchase costly fertilizers who
might with little foresight and lpbor
gather as much fertilizing matter in
the fall and prepare it for use through
the winter as would amount in yalae
to the cost OF the fertilizers they buy
eyory year--American Agriculturist.

FRESH POULTRY CHIPS.

ROUP is generally caused by damp
ness or draft of air blowing in on the
fowls. Keep them from both this win
ter.
Do CHICKENS pay? Yes, as all know
who have given them fair trial; but,
like any other business, they pay only
in proportion to the attention given
them.
Fowls must have stimulating food in
cold weather If they are expected to lay
we'll. Cabbage, onions and clover hay,
If the clover is cut fine and steamed,
will, If fed to hens, add to the number
of eggs laid.
HERE is what we have found to be q
good breakfast for forty fowls: Boil
heaping peck of potatoes, mash them,
add one-quarter each of shorts and bran,
a tablespoonful each of salt and pepper;
add hot water enough to mix into stiff
dough.
FEED literally this winter. Liberal
feeding secures liberal profits. Scantily
fed poultry pay scanty profits, if any.
Neglect to furnish enough means the
loss of what you do give them. Either
feed your fowls we'll or give them to
some one that will do so. Give them
proper care or kill them at once. The
soone- the better.
EVERY poultry house should have a
feed box. 1t saves food, and 1t is =
very poor plan to throw the food, and
especially soft food, on the floor in the
dirt OK even in the shallow dishes used
by many. The latter are liable to be
upset and their contents trampied under
foot and wasted. Besides it does not
exhibit the true spirit of the fancier.
ALTHOUGH many persons think that
corn is our best food for poultry, they
are faI from being correct. unless the
object is to fatten for the market, then
it is OR best food. But II our aim is to
secure eggs, then breakfast of bran
and meal cooked and seasoned to taste;
at noon scatter oats and wheat in the
litter upon the floor, and at night give
in winter full feed of corn. An ex-
elusive corn diet causes the hens to lay
on too much fat, and as a consequence
they cease to lay.-Fanciers' Journal.

ences Of opinion was found impossible, aud
the only way, if tariff bill was to be con-
structed at all, was for the committee to
adopt one view or the other. Hence there
are provisions in the bill which are not salts
factory to large sections of the country. The
Louisiana sugar planters are, of course. not
reconciled to the reduction of the tariff on
sugar, and the eastern leather men are dis
satisfied with the imposition of a duty ON
hides' Some disappointments of this kind
were inevitable. That there have not been
more OF them, and that the committee have
produced bill which gives so much salts
faction to protectionists is greatly to the
credit OF the Republican members Of the
ways and means committee.
AS rule, New England has little TO COM
plain OF at the treatment it receives in the
new bill. The tariff on hides she objects to,
and, we think, with good reason. We be-
lieye, If 1t becomes law, time and expert
ence will show that it is unwise and really
contrary to the theory of protection. But
the articles on which tariff such as New
England wanted was placed, outnumber those
on which it has been disappointed hundred
times. Maine especially has little to find fault.
Agricultural products. lumber, fish, granite,
box shocks, and many other minor articles
in which she issinterested have received in
creased protection. The allegation that New
England interests have been sacrificed to the
West is not sustained by an examination of

The Revision of the Tariff.

The difference between the attitude of the
two parties toward the tariff is marked and
readily discerned. The Democratic party
would, as speedily as possible, bring the tar
iff to revenue basis. That is to say, in Sc
Letting articles upon which to impose duties.
they would pay no heed to domestic produc-
tions or manufactures, but would seek such
articles as would most surely produce the de-
sired revenue. Hence, as a rule, the tariff.
under their system, would be laid upon such
Itieles of growth or manufacture as cannot
produced in this country. Articles which
ould be taxed under the revenue system
would be such as tea, coffee and sugar, which
cannot be raised in this country, or only
raised in limited quantities. The Republi-
can party, on the other hand, in selecting ar
ticles upon which to impose duties, would
take account of articles of domestic growth
and production, and would seek to levy the
tariff on articles which are or can be pro-
duced at home, with a view of protecting
home industries that exist, or bringing into
being those that do not exist, but for which
tie circumstances are favorable. The fos-
tering of home industries would be promi-
nent consideration in the arrangement of the
tariff by Republicans in Democratic ar
rangement it would be ignored.
In the construction of the tariff BILL lust
presented to the House, the Republican idea
of protecting home industries was carefully
kept in mind. But to give this idea correct
application in all cases is an exceedingly diff
fcnlt thing to do, and it was not strange,
therefore, that marked differences of opin-
Ion arose in the arrangement of details. An
INDUSTRY which seemed to one section of the
country promising enough to Justify fcs
'terihg py protective duty might seem other
wise TO another section of the country. THE
was tne case with sugar. Louisiana, which
raises sugar cane, and Kansas, which il do
ing something in the cultivation of SORGHUM
felt that this business was promising enouoh
to justify protective duty on sugar heavv
enough to enable it to compete with the for-
eign production. Other sections of ~
country believed that this industry. M mot
ter how much it was fostered, could never
meet the demands of the country, and that a
tariff upon it would forever continue to be n
tax, increasing the price Of sugar to the con-
sumner. Much the same difference of opin-
ion was encountered in relation to hides.
The East felt that a tariff on that article
would not materially stimulate the produc-
ton of cattle, and therefore would inevita-
bly, become permanent tax on leather goods,
increasing their price indefinitely to the con-
sumner. To reconcile these and other differ

Seventeen of the precious crew are in salar-

past and presumably hope to be so again.
Six of them belong to the Tweed gang. Four

felonious assault; one as having been tried
for murder and acquitted; and one as

he has discovered way in which it can be
