Deer and bears are reported to be
more plentiful now in the great
woods of Oxford County, Maine, than
at any other time during the present
generation. These woods extend, in d
belt from four to six miles wide,
from Di1field away up into the un-
trodden wilderness of Northern Maine,
and much of the area has seldom been
visited by sportsmen. Driven from
the hunting grounds about Rangeley
Lake the game took refuge in these
woods, and have multiplied there uu

Resume OF the Week in Senate and
House.
TIE SENATE.

40th Day.-Tho resolution offered by Mr..
Teller, calling for information as to the antic
lpaton OF interest on the government bonds
since July, 1850, gave rise to u discussion
which lasted three-quartcrs Of an hour
Mr.. voorhees, opposed it on the ground
that 1t would require financial history Of
the country for the last Is years but after
explanation by Mr.. Teller of the scope and
ohjrct Of the resolution, Mr.. Voorhees, objec-
uOn was withdrawn.
At the conclusion Of Mr. PETERS remarks
the Senate adjourned.
4lst Day. - Notices of two important
amendments to the silver purchase repeal bill
were given in the Senate. One, by Mr.. VOL
colt, Rep, Of Colorado, provides for the re-
turn to the States interested OF the amount OF
the cotton tax collected from them during
the war.
The other was by Mr.. Perkins, Rep, Col,
and 1t provides for the coinage Of silver Of
American production ut the existing ratio,
the treasury to retain II seignorage OF 20
per cent 1t also provides that hereafter
there shall be no gold coins mnted OF less
than RIO, and no bank notes or treasury
notes issued Of less than IS, and for a none
tary commission Of five experts.
The resolution ~ to the F8rchild custom
house commission, heretofore offered by Mr.
Chandler. Rep, n. H., was taken up.
M CHhlu'T spoke on MS resolution Tor
over an hOur-the latter part Of his speech
being a criticism Of the President for his too
great readiness to ignore the laws and to act
on his own ideas.
The silver purchase repeal bill was taken
up at F. NJ, and Mr.. Camden. Dem, OF
West Virginia, addressed the Senate. His
speech was temperate argument In favor
OF the repeal OF the Sherman act, but
with the clear understanding that the
repeal should not produce a contraction in
the money now in circulation. He expressed
the belief that, although himctallism was not
practicable under present conditions, the free
coinage Of silver would be within a decade
restored not only in this country but In Eng
land and Europe.
MIR. PETER Pop. Of Kansas, took the floor
and continued the speech against the repeal
bill which he had begun last Thursday Mr.
PETER finished his speech at 4.30 and then the
Senate adjourned.

How Turpentine is Made.

Throughout the entire long-leaved pine
region of the South, the work OF gather
ing lurpentine affords a means OF iveli-
hood for a considerable portion OF the
population. Beginning in the spring the
trees are boxed" which operation con-
sists in making an incision in the trunk,
at about three feet from the ground, of
sufficient capacity to hold q quart or more

OF the oil. Just above the box q slight
portion of the bark is removed to expose
the surface OF the wood, this scoring be-
ing in V-shape with the point down toward
the box so that the exudations will drip
into that. AS many trees are thus pre-
pared as the operator can attend to
through the season and are then left for
the oil to gather. At the end of week,
If the weather has been good-the exuda-
tons being much more rapid in warm
weather than when it is cOol-it will be
necessary to remove another strip of
bark and so expose fresh surface The
work of the season consists in visiting the
trees regularly to make these missions
and to remove the oil from the boxes as
they fill up. That is a slow process, q
month or more being required for the &C.
emulation of quart. AS gathered, it
is put into barrels and taken to the still
houses where the crude product is manu-
featured into the commercial products OF
rosin and turpentine. Besides the drip
which is collected as above, and which is
technically termed 'virgin,' a quantity
OF gum cOngeals upon the surface Of the
tree where the bark has been removed.
This is also gathered by scraping the
trunk, and from that method of collect
ingis given the technical name of ''scrape"
1t is much less valuable than the virgin,
as it contains less turpentine. The ''etill"
is usually IN uupretentious affair, hardly
more than a shanty of pine slabs, and is
situated either in the heart Of the pine
woods or near convenient railway sta
ton. 1t contains brick encased kettle
OF a few barrels capacity, end q Orm for
condensing. By means of the worm the
turpentine il first volatiIized and then
condensed and drawn off, leaving the
heavier product, the rOsen, in the kettle.
This in turn is drawn into vat, which is
covered by course screen, over which
sheets OF cotton are placed, and through
this the rosin is strained and all chips
and other impurities removed.
The occupation Of gathering the tur-
pentine has been followed chiefly by the
more shiftless natives and the negroes
who have preferred q few months Of such
employment to the more severe and ex-
acting demands Of the farm or planta-
ton. The pine lands have in the past
been free to whoever would work them,
SO that all that was obtained as the pro-
duct of their labor remained as clean
proft.-American Agriculturist.

Fertile Eggs in Winter.

valuable space to something about the
best methods OF getting the most fertile
eggs. in winter, forhatching? lean make
iucubators do their part of the work, the
greatest trouble is to get an abundance
OF fertile eggs w.
Lima, N. Y.
We have devoted much space to the
best methods OF getting fertile eggs, in
winter and all seasons. Not under that
special heading, possibly, but in articles
describing the best methods of feeding
and caring for the focks and promoting
their good health. Whatever tends to
that end helps not only to fertileeggs but
strong, vigorous chicks Matched from
thoseeggs. They are, practically, one and
the same thing.
A lIttle thought upon this subject should
make this plain, Normally, a fowl lays
sound, healty eggs which will hatch
strong, vigorous chicks if they have been
fertilized by vigorous male. The hens
that steal their nests and "hatch every
egg' illustrate this. Obviously, then, by
following, as closely as possible natural
methods, we shall depart as little as pos
sible from high fertility OF eggs aud
strength and vigor of chicks.
10 combining our fowls in houses and
yards we are departing from the ''natu-
RAP way, hence should conform to it as
much as possible. When running at will
biddy goes where she pleases and rOosts
in q convenient tree, taking ample room
for her quarters. IN combining her we
should study to give her enough outside
range, yard-room, to insure healthFul ex-
ercise, and daily access to green food, and
within the house, 'ebow" room enough
for comfort, good air Quot vitiated) to
breathe, etc, and should secure the gOOd,
pure air to breathe by all precautions as
to cleanliness. This is what we mean by
conforming to Cor copying) natures way
so far as possible.
In evolving our plAn of housing and
yarding poultry we decided that 10
square feet per fowl OF house room, and
100 square feet per fowl Of yard room
was about right, hence We make our
house-pens 12x12, giving IA squarefeet,
and yards 12x125, giving 1900 square
/ feet, and in these quarters put family
/ of Is laying fowls, Or q breeding pen Of
z - females and a male, and several years
experience and observation convince us
that these quarters are not far from
! right. With proper precautions for
cleanliness OF house, Frequently described
in these columns) we keep fowls healthy
1 and happy, that lay us from $50 to IT'S
! eggs apiece each year, and eggs that
4 hatch out strong. vigorous chicks.
4 Every egg won't be fertile, of course.
There are times when @ hen has been
broody and separated for a Jew days
from her mates, and wien returned to
4 the pen may have an egg ready shelled
with one or two following it closely
which will be laid before the male element
! gets in contact. hence they we'll be bar
rem: or the cOck-bird may have favOrites
! and a spite against one or two OF his
mates. in which case the eggs OF the birds
. neglected are barren. II however the fe-
males are in good health they lay eggs
