AMONG THE POULTRY.

FEEDING too much grafn''is not con-
ducive to health or egg production.
Too OFTEN there is an overlooking OF
grain and undertaking of more bulky
materials.
UNLESS bulky food is supplied the
hens will pick up much, that is, to say
the least, not beneficial
ONE decided advantage with ducks
over chickens is that they thrive best
when left in large numbers,
WHEN turkeys or ducks are to be fat
tened rapidly, it is importantto confine
then in tolerably close quarters. NJ
ALTHOUGH with good care the ducks
will begin laying early in the winter,
it is not best to have them hatch until
early in the spring.
UNLESS the wheat screenings are
above the average, or they can be Sc.
cured at very low price, they can. be
hardly as cheap a feed as many seem to
think.
WHEN the comb of a fowl is large
and full of blood it is good indication
that it is in good health. When the
comb is of purplish red it is an indica
ton of disease.
WHEN the weather is damp, especial
ly, keeping the floors Of the poultry
quarters literally sprinkled with air
slaked lime will aid in preventing rour
from making a start.
GEESE do not attain their full growth
and breeding qualities under three
years. Hence, it is nearly always best
to sell the young geese and keep the
older ones for breeders.
ONE reason why women usually sue
coed so we'll with poultry is because
they are more .cousiderate of the
wants and necessities of fowls thar
men. But they do not usually brag sc
much about what they do
ONE decided advantage with the in
cubator is that the chickens are usually
started under more favorable coudi
tons, as they are free frornlice, theil
quarters are easier kept clean and they
are easier looked after. -St. Louis Re

MAKE SOIL RICHER.

1t Is Easily Done by the Application o.
sssA, s9 @f@ Green Manure. ri Y
) There seems tosbe no occupation in
life wherein men are SO generally
ayerse to paying ont money Tor its
equivaient for benefits TO be received
a little later on, as in farming, and es'
pecially in relation to feeding the land
in order that it may produce more
abundantly. Take green manuring,
for instance. If man sows a CROP
for this purpose, half the time he
changes his mind when it is grown
and harvests and sells it, and this not
withstanding the fact that unless stock
feeding enters largely into his system
of operations green manure must be
his main dependence for continued or
increasing prosperity.
We do not begin to make use of this
means for supply fertility as we would
if we could bring ourselves to pursue a
more open-handed policy with our
lands. We might often put in a catch
crop of oats, rye or clover where land
is now left bare for months, and by
turning them under put solid capital
in our bank that will pay good divi-
dends in future years. The general
farmer'is always on the safe side in
green manuring, though he may be a
stock-keeper also, for, if he grows and
harvests crops with the purpose OF
feeding them out and returning the
manure to the land, the chances are
that his appliances for saving the
product are, so inadequate that not hall
OF it gets where it is needed. In turn.
ing under green crop, says writer
in Farmers Guide, there is no oppor'
tunity for the escape of the valuable
elements, The crop ,decomposes com
pletely nthe ground which it is in
tended to enrich, and enters then and
there upon its work. 7

TEAMS IN WINTER.
Keep the Horses in Good Condition for
the Spring Work.

tHc spring NOrk'
After the corn is cribbed and the fall
blowing done there is not great deal
of team work to be done during the
winter. There will be some feed to
haul, mole or less manure to haul out
and some fuel to haul. Usually one
team will do all that is necessary. 1t
will be best to have this team we'll
shod and we'll fed SO they can readily
do what is required of them. 1t is al
ways an item to keep them thrifty,
feeding and grooming well and regu-
larly. Il does not pay to allow any of
them to run down, and while with
those that are not at work it is always
an item to winter as economically as
possible, at the same time the econom-
ical wintering should never be done at
the expense of condition. Close con-
flnement is not good for horses. They
need exercise and they should be al
lowed to run out every day that the
weather. will permit. II may not be
advisable to turn them out into the
pastures, but they can have the run Of
lot to good advantage. If we'll shell
tered and given plenty of roughness
very little grain will be needed, but
they should have some. Unthreshed
oats run through feed cutter, with u
small quantity of bran, makes one Of
the very best feeds for the idle teams
in winter. But hay and corn fodder,
with a little corn and bran, will make
good ration. Once week give all
the horses bran mash. This will have
a tendency to keep the bowels open
and wiltserve also to make variety
Never feed more of anything than
they will eat up clean. Even with
straw or corn fodder only what they
will eat clean should be given. This
is necessary if they have good appe-
tite.
Corn can nearly always be fed with
benefit when the weather is very cold
on account of its heating qualities.
Use all reasonable care to keep them
comfortable, as in this way it is much
easier to keep them thrifty.
While it is not necessary to feed the
teams that are not at work as much. as
those that are at work will need, yet
it will pay at all times to supply
enough to keep them thrifty, as in the
end it will cost less than to allow them
to run down and then be obliged to
feed up before the season for worl,
opens. The best way is to begin. in
good season increasing the rations as il
may seem necessary.-St. Louis Re-

The piece cut away in the right
hand corner of Fig, 2 is small place
cut out in the middle of the stake to

THE OLDEST OF TRADES.
Manufacture of Flints for Guns of variou

Sizes.
There are in all twenty-three different
kinds of flint made, but it requires some
ingenuity to stretch them out so far
For instance, to make up the list you
have gray muskets and black muskets,
where difference is not at all in the
workmanship, but in the alleged quail
ity of the flint Setting aside minor
kinds, the main classes of flint are for
the common gun, the pocket, and horse
pistols, the muslset, rifle, and carbine.
From the narrow point Of his flake
the workman chips diminutive flint
for pocket pistol, though not so many
of these are required rs of larger size
for horse-pistols. But the tlints most
in request are the neat and well-shaped
| ones used for rifles, and the biggest
OF all are required for carbines.
There Is also q continuous, though
not very considerable, demand
for strike-a-lights, meant for the use of
travellers and sportsmen who have had
experience of damp matches AS each
OF these has its own shape and size,
which must be accurately reproduced,
it will be seen that the knapper at the
anvil has a task demanding both skill
and judgment Yet its execution has
become so much habit with him
that he talks and chips away as if
by instinct At every sharp pop down
drops gun flint-which he takes in
his hand and let's the hammer play
round till the sharp edges are blunted
and the size made exactly what is re-
quired. The speed at which he works
may be inferred from the fact that each
man calculates to turn out on an aver
age three thousand a day. In. time of
pressure knapper hes been known,
by commencing very early in the morn
ing and working to late hour at night
to make nine thousand. But that is
deemed an extraordinary and prodgious
days work. .ts..
The employers as well as the men
reckon that, taking all the year round,
a third Of that number represents the
output OF man. This means about
twelve thousand week, for it is an old
custom in the trade to make Saturday
and Monday holidays--the former is de-
voted to play and the latter is given to
tool sharpening Knapping can not be
done unless the hammers are in perfect
order, and it is said that the only
smiths who can put them right are a
few in the neighborhood of Brandon
who have done the work from infancy,
and know to o nicely the face and tenn,
| per required. sissa4e
i 1t is very difficult to- calculate the
gross number of gun tlints made annu-
ally, as the work is in merchants than
one, but in all England there are GER
tainly not thirty men who can shape a
4 flint Business used to fiuctuate very
much, and in dull times some of the
operatives were obliged to seek employ
ment elsewhere. From half dozen to
| a dozen knappers have constant,work,
! showever, and, while they do not make
fewer than four millions annually, they
must be very busy to make eight
Braddon is the chief, bnt not the only,
seat of the manufacture. Gun flints
are still made in small quantities at
Malaga, for example, and specimens
are to be seen in the British museum. -

Don't Buy Disease.

II is the easiest matter to get roup

tom another yard. If you wish to
purchase, it will pay YOU to inspect the
flock from which your purchase is

ties at distance be sure that they are

the venerable minister of Pitsligo thus
described to me his mothers prepara-
tons for church: ION her head she
placed skull cap to keep the hair up,
and over that a fine linen cap, lying
quite fiat, followed 10y broad ribbon
going round the head and fastened be-
hind. Over all came band of thin
cambria drawn into ruching on the
top, and having broad, fat border,
showing the hair on the edge. Her
outer dress was red cloak with hood,
and made of fine wool. Her ordinary
errand-going cloak was a duflle or
bluish-gray. My father at kirk and
fair worefa long coat, with brass but
tons, of blush cloth, and. for working
dress, homemade clothes, with a smaller
coat of home-spun wool. On all occa-
sions he wore knee brooches "-Black-
