where there are hydrants this is very
easy matter and one that the truckman
frequently attends to without orders,
where there is no running water few
pailfus from the well or cistern will
save all trouble. In very cold weather
this is scarcely practicable as the water
freezes as soon as it touches the coal.
In such case ! insist in having the
coal screened repeatedly and put in with
great deal of care The long chutes

does not fall any great distance, thus

KEEPING POTATOES.
How to Preserve Them IN Edible Condi

How to Preserve Them IN Edible Condi-
tion for a Long Time.
The difficulty of keeping Irish pota-
toes in edible condition after March
is we'll known to south ern house
keepers, farmers and merch ants, Prof,
Schibaux, OF the national college of
agriculture of France, has recently de-
vised very simple, cheap and success
full method by which he has been able
to preserve potatoes in edible condition
for over year and half. This proc
ess has been adopted by the French
government for preserving potatoes for
the army. The French minister of
agriculture publishes the details of the
process of the official Bulletin du Min
istere de L Agriculture for March, 1891.
The following is translation of the
essential part of the scheme
l. The method of preserving consists
in plunging the tubers, before storing
them away, for ten hours into two
percent. solution of commercial sui
phuric acid in water; two parts of acid
to one hundred parts of water.
q The acid penetrates the eyes TO
the depth of about one-fortieth inch
two millimeters), which serves to de-
stroy their sprouting power; it does
not have any appreciable effect upon
the skin of the potatoes.
g. After remaining in the liquid ten
hours, the tubers must be thoroughly
dried before storing away.
4. The same liquid may be used any
number of times with equally good re-
suits.
5. A barrel or tank of any kind will
do for the treatment, The acid Is so
dilute it does not affect the wood.
9. Chemical analysis shows that pota-
toes treated by this process are as nu-
tritious and healthful after eighteen
months as when freshly dug.
Z. Potatoes thus treated are, of
course, worthless for planting Ger

COWS IN PRISON.
SOavsnger Milk Diseased Under Abnormal
Conditions.

Conditions.
Freedom is the natural condition OF
happiness among animals. The lower
animals enjoy this pleasure as much as
persons, and dislike confinement equal
ly. Has the owner of any animal the.
right to exercise the cruelty of con-
stant confinement upon his animals,
even If it have-as may well be doubted
the result of making n little more
profit from them? Much has been said
in regard to the supposed advantage of
keeping cows in the stable all winter
and forbidding them any of the free.
dom to which nature has fitted them,
and which is one of their instructive en-
joyments Much, too, has been said
and written-an justly in regard to
the misery of the swill-fod cows that
enter the stables from which they
never depart alive. "All hope abandon,
who enter here" might be written over
the door of such prison, Common
humanity is outraged by this intolera-
BILE punishment inflicted upon the
wretched beasts, thus tortured for the
supposed profit of their cruel owners.
| say supposed" For l insist, from
long experience, that COW must suf-
fer in health from this close confne-
ment, although the stable be free from
the Objectionable filth of the swill
prison. Moreover, such exercise as is
indispensable for h ealth is equally in
dispensable for healthful milk. Look.
ing at this matter from the standpoint
of a proper and humane hygiene, it
must be clear that the COW deprived of
exercise for months must suffer in
health: the secretions voided from the
body, through the skin, especially, are
not properly eliminated and are thus
retained to be got rid of through the
and diseased COW must give diseased
milk. The COW may be herself saved
by this drainage from the system, but
the milk must necessarily suffer, as
it, as is well known, acts as drain
for the body by which many waste
products that cannot be got rid of in
other ways are discharged from the
system, or, in the impressive words
of the late Prof Arnold: "Milk Is the
scavenger of the cows body" The
milk is thus made impure, and the
effect cannot fail to. be disastrous in
some ways Give the COW healthful
exercise and the freedom that makes
her happy if the best and most profit
able result is desired. DO not con.
denim the generous animal to imprison-
ment in the vain hope that few more
cents may be squeezed from her pro-
life udder. N. Y Tribune.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

PULLETs and wo-year-old hens are
the most profitable.
For cold climate a breed with a
small comb will be found best
In marketing eggs should be clean
and fowls well fattened and dressed.
FEEDING on barley meal ten days be-
fore killing will give delicacy to the

Two BY four-iEch scantlings placed
two feet from the ground or floor make
perches.
A BREED generally has only one dom
inant talent and seldom excels in more
than one characteristic
After killing goose, dip it in scald-
ing water and then wrap it in cloth
and leave it for five minutes. All the
pin-feathers will then come off readily.
CLEAN, dry sand scattered over the
floor of the broods is one of the best
means of keeping clean. When sand
cannot be had, wheat bran can be used
BY scattering some of the grain

work, gives them better appetite and

ness and draughts are the cause of this

ANY number Of pigeons can be kept
together in one building, provided
they are not crowded too close and the
