The fencing comes six inches wide,
and the flooring about the same width.
No posts are used in this plan, and the
house is none the less strong. To con-
struct it, first saw twenty of the fencing
boards to #. long for the back of the
house, and saw the waste ends of these
to #. long. Rip one of the 10 in. wide
boards into two 6 in. boards, one of
which is for the base of the back of
house, and the other is to be again
ripped into two 8 in. strips, upon which
nail the ft. fencing pieces, leaving two
pieces loose near each end for the doors.
This forms the base for the front. The
base of the whole house can now be
nailed together, using two of the wide
boards for the sides.
The front base slants outward (see Fig.
y. The frame is then constructed by
erecting long fencing board at three
feet from the front end of each side base
and shorter one at rear end of each, as
Fig. 1, which shows these boards trimmed
to fit under the roof. These two sets Of
uprights are then connected by scantling
for the roof, under the ends of these
scantling fencing boards are nailed,

which hold the third scantling in place
to support the center of the roof. The
top of the longest board is then con-
nected with the front base by fencing
board, and two boards nailed across the
front to support the sash. The whole
frame is then complete.
Figs. and 9 show the full details of
the frame. The boards for back, sides
and roof can then be nailed on, flooring
boards being used for roof. When the
sashes are adjusted in their proper places
on the front, with strips of tin above
them to turn water, flooring boards are
sawn toproper length and fitted on. The
ventilator is made with four flooring
boards; its lower end is near the floor at
center of house.
The remaining twelve inch board is for
base of the partition, narrower board
for top and lath nailed on close, divides
the house into two compartments for two
pens of fowls, or pen of fowls and room

PIGGERY PLAN.

6 G G are sleeping apartments; B B,
the central passage. The troughs ex-
tend part way across the feeding
rooms, with board partition be-
tween them. The divisions between
the feeding rooms and the sleeping
apartments are single board, 6 in. high,
which holds the clean straw from be-
coming mixed with the manure. D D
D are doors, through which the animals
may enter; and sliding doors may be
made for all the apartments, and be-
tween them, for throwing two together
when desired. The space a contains
the cooking apparatus, to which may be
added any additional heater when neces-
sary. Each window affords light to two
apartments, and which will aid in keep
ing them perfectly clean. The floor
has uniform surface, with no break,
the central portion being level, while
the side floors for the eating pens
have slope to aid in cleaning
and drainage, being about 4 in. in 6
fit. To assist in cleaning. an open
ing is made 6 in. wide along the
whole length of the outside of the slop-
ing floors, and board in. wide is hung
on hinges at the upper edge, so that it
may be hooked up for cleaning. and

chicks of different ages. The cracks on
sides and back of house are stripped with
lath; the inside of house is lined with tar
paper, and the roof and front painted
with cheap mineral paint, which rem
ders the house waterproof as the boards
are tongue and grooved. This makes it
warm enough for almost any latitude
For the south the strips and tar paper
might be dispensed with. The slant OF
sash is sufficient to shut out the perpen-
dicular rays of the sun in summer and
food the whole floor with warmth in
winter.
An outside door and gate in the par
tition make the whole house of easy ac-
cess. The small doors for fowls are
made on the trap door principle, and
opened and closed by cord attached to
the fastening bolt, which is heavy enough
to fall into place when the cord is slack
ened. Sufficient scrap pieces will be left
to make feed, dust and nest boxes, and
the inside arrangements can be made to
suit the owner. The floor is earth,
packed hard and covered with gravel,
on top of which, for young chicks, scat
ter grass.
1t will readily be seen this plan can be
extended an indefinite length by the adj
dition of three posts every ten feet to
support the roof.

Winter Feeding.

A subject upon which great deal of
advice is annually given. but one which
can never be worn out, is that of winter
feeding. 1t is now generally conceded
that no one article can be fed the winter
through with entirely satisfactory re-
suits. Fowls must have varied diet, as
no single element can supply all the
needs of the system. Provision must be
made for feeding vegetables occasionally
in addition to the allowance of grain or
meal.--Farmer's Review.

FARM AND GARDEN.
POINTS OF INTEREST TO LARGE
AND SMALL CULTlVATORS.

Hereford Cattle-A Slated Potato Box.
Points on the Breed From Men of
Wide Experience-The Prize Bull Figaro
Described and Illustrated.
The Hereford breed has always been
held in high estimation as a grazing ami
NAL by British stockmen, and has fore
most place among the English beef
breeds. The present popularity in Eng
land of the Hereford cattle is due in part,
at least, to the Improvements brought
about in this breed by the Royal Agri-
cultural society This organization of
late years has, by virtue of prizes offered
and the high sale prices accruing from
these, brought about some magnificent
displays Of Herefords, notably in 1884.
While the Herefords have been known
in this country for the last half century,
it is only of late years that they have
been recognized among the foremost of
beef breeds in the United States and
been bred pure. A great impetus was
given to the Herefords in 1883 by the
winning of the Sweepstake premium for
the best dressed carcass, at the Chicago
fat stock show, by Hereford steer. At
the present time prize cattle from the
best English herds are grazing on Ameri-
can pastures.
In fact, so well known have the Here
fords become to our active breeders and
leading stockmen that we give only
brief mention of their general character
istics for the benefit of amateurs. First
come the massive form and great weight
of beef produced; the comparative ease
with which the cattle are supported, and
the readiness with which they fatten in

The Scotland Railroad Strike

GLASGOW. December a3.-ln spite of
all efforts made to bring about settle
ment of the matters in dispute between
the railroad officials and the railroad
employees, the strike continues TO eX-
tend in many directions. Traffic is now
hopelessly behind time everywhere
among the lines of the road affected.
The engine drivers report that many of
the signal boxes are deserted by their
regular occupants, and that in other
cases where the signal men remained at
their posts the signals were so iyorked
rs to be misleading, and CONSEQUENTLY
delaying the passage OF trains in Il
most annoying and dangerous manner.

expect to be able to induce the Perth
men to go out on a strike within very
short time.

PARNELL AND O'BRIEN.
Interest Now Centered on the Coming
Conference in Paris.

Conference in Paris.
LONDON, December 23.-Now that the
Kilkenny election is over, and the ex-
citement attending that first trial of
strength between the Irish factions is
dispelled, all are looking forward with
the deepest interest to the meeting OF
Parnell and O'Brien in Paris.
O'Brien is acquainted with Mrs.
O'Shea, who is now in Paris, and who
may. il is thought, have something to
say in behalf of Parnell
There is no foundation whatever for
the report that the Queens proctor
means to reopen the O'Shea divorce
case The only possible ground for
such action, in view of the evidence,
would be collusion. and it would do Par
nell no good to testify to that, while at
the same time, should such claim be
successfully interposed, it would make
it impossible for Parnell to marry his
Dear Kate as he habitually calls her,
and would leave her in a condition
worse than divorce or widowhood.
1t is understood that at the coming
conference in Paris the question will
arise as to the disposition of the funds
now locked up for the uses of the
National League, and an effort will be
made to arrive at common ground as to
the disposition of the money.
In statement last evening Sir u.
Treyelyan, NJ. P, said that the Liberal
party continued steadfast in its attitude
toward Ireland: that it was firmly re-
solved TO give a measure of atonement
and dellverance TO Ireland as nation,
'Not because they are Liberals, bnt be-
cause we are Liberals.

The Republican scheme.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December %
The legislative history of this year prac-
tically closed to-day. The House has
adjourned over until Friday with an
understanding that no business shall be
done before the new year, and the Sen
ate will doubtless adopt n similar pro-
gramme. This closing day was marked
by two important events in the Senate.
the presentation of the financial bill by
the Committee on Finance and cloture
resolution by Aldrich. Senator Sher-
man had set himself to work to recon-
cile the conflicting views, and to-day's
financial bill is in large measure attrib-
utable 10 his ingenuity.
The programme of the Republicans
is believed TO be in this line. At con-
venient time the cloture rule is TO be
called mp (when 4 Republican majority
is at hand.) When the Democratic
Senators attempt to attack it with the
intention of talking ii to death, or until
the fourth OF March, the presiding
officer will rule that debate is not
in order. What will follow, no one can
say, but if the rule carries. the elections
bill will come very near the statute
books

MAY GET A NEW TRIAL.
Protests Against the Verdict in the Case
of Stranger Eyraud.

PARIS, December 23.-There is Il re-
vulsion of feeling in favor of Eyraud,
the strangler of Gouffe.
1t is generally felt that his compan-
ion, Gabrielle Bompard, was the great
est criminal of the two, and the fact
she was let OF with term of imprison-
ment, while Eyraud was doomed to the
guillotine, has aroused Il feeling of pro-
test against the apparent injustice OF
the verdict.
The sentiment Is strengthened by the
news that only five out of the twenty
jurymen were at first inclined TO give
the woman the benefit OF eXtenuating
circumstances, though the others final
ly consented to take that view OF the
case. The theory of hypnotism has also
been disprOved 10 the satisfaction.of the
public, and the belief that Eyraud was
the tool of a modern Lady Macbeth in
the person of the wicked Gabrielle finds
more and more wide acceptance. 1t is
probable that a new trial will be grant
ed. and in that case it is doubtful if the
verdict of the late trial will be repeated.
The latest Partisan novelty is small
model of the trunk which figured in the
Gouffe murder case as the receptacle of
the victims mutilatcd body. 1t is Il
puzzle to open the trunk, and when the
experimenter has overcome the Difficult
ty the lid flies open, and he is rewarded
by the sight OF Il leaden image OF the
unfortunate notary.
