BETHLEHEM.

We have had another blizzard. Nearly every man in town was drafted to dig snow; paid by the town. Some of the city people that happen to be out in the country say, 70 the beautiful snow,'' but some of our country boys say 1T wish they were obliged to shovel it, or be roll ed in it, they would not think it quite so beautiful" The people living on those Newtown hills know how it is themselves. Day after day and no mall. Blessed is the man that lives down in the hollow out of the wind.
 One of our thorough-going farmers, Frank Thompson, has bought farm in the upper part of Woodbury in Wecuppe- mee district. He married his wife in that neighborhood, daughter of Hermon Judson. That is just as it should be. Now the daughter can see her old home and family every day. When will young men learn to select near home among those they know best. It is seldom that young wife is content hundreds of miles from their old home and parents, to say nothing of the expense of visiting so far away.
 If the cold weather holds on much long, CT hay will be well cleaned out.
 Washington's birthday, this year. was one of the most tedious days the writer has ever seen, very unlike the log cabin celebration in Hartford, where the mud was ankle deep in the streets.-[*

One important item with the managers or racks is to have them so that the feed can be put into them with the least labor. Hive Stock Indicator.
 In breeding look carefully to the pre- dominating characteristics of the sire and dam, as it does not pay to breed colts with naturally bad tempers.
 Put the old sheep and thin yearlings in a warm stable or shed and feed good hay or fodder with ground grain, and have mutton rather than pelts to sell. If it pays to feed grain 10 wetherS in winter it pay will feed now so that better gain can be secured in proportion to the amount of food supplied. Happy the poultryman who has a dry floor in the hennery this month- Damp floors may be made endurable by bedding freely with leaves, chaff or strIw- Remember when buying that fully-ac climated sheep are worth at least 5O cents head more than those newly brought
 in, particularly from the East. A really fine saddle horse is hard TO find and sucf are constantly coming into
 greater demand. There is opportunity | for breeders to develop paying speciality | in this line.
 | Don't bite every hook; if you have $
 good vigorous animal, keep him in anC
 use him, and put your surplus dollar into
 better feed. It takes feed as well al
 breed.
 Corn fodder loses its palatableness th'
 longer it is kept; feed the bulk of it dur | ing the coldest weather. A little kep
 till later will do to make change in tn cows feed.
 Carrots are the best of all roots f" 1 horses. If we would use them more Vi
 would find fe eding less expensive and tn
 horses more easily kept in good coDdi tion-Trroy Times.

SUCCESS IN TOMATO CULTURE.

Prof Troop of the Indiana experi- menC station, writing to Orange Judd Farmer about tomato culture, says that the success in tomato culture depends upon the care and attention given to the plants while yet in the hOt-bed or warm- house. If neglected in ahy way either by insufficient watering or by being al- lowed to remain too long in small pots, they will be cut short in yield and the date of ripening retarded. Our expert ence the past season has proved this
 At the time we usually set the plants in the open field there was so much rain that the operation was postpOn, d for 10 days Or more. Part were trar splant. d into boxes, where they had plenty of room to grow vigorously and continually until finally planted out. The renail- der were left in pots and these soon be- gan 10 show signs of crOwding so that the growth was checked quite perceptily. and as result the first lot were week earlier in ripening and the yield nearly 9 per cent greater than the second. Not only that, but the one weeks differ ence in ripeniug represented Il decrease in price from $2 to $l per bushel.

LITCHFIELD.
A FINE CLUB HOUSE.

The club house now in course of erec- ton for the Litchfield Country Club, will be an ornament to the town. The con- tracr is in the hands of that thorough and capable builder, Sherman $. Peck of New Milford, and the house will probably be completed on or before June |. The di- mensions of the building are about 65 by 100 feeG. The architect was Edson Gage of New York, whose name alone insures satisfactory and pleasing work. The club house Is two-story-and-a- half structure. On the first floor is large hall 34 by 45 feet. There is stage, 16 by l3 feet. The hall will be finely pan eled, and it will make pleasing audi ence room. There are two fireplaces in this hall. On the second floor there are four rooms and an open balcony. On the front of the house will be a fine piazza IA by 65 feet, and another in the rear l6 by 34 feet. The roof will be covered with cypress shingles and the sides with white pine. The cost of the club house will be somewhere in the vicinity of 5000. The bad weather has handicapped Contractor Peck, but he is hustling the work right along. Already he has the frame up and sheathed. Contractor Peck has just com pleted fine residence at Washington for w. Hamilton Gibson.

WILD FLOWERS FOR GARDEss.

We have alway> urgently advocated the introduction of our wild native huw- CTS ill garden culture, many of which will grow and flourish for years without care. Among others we notice in late humber of Garden and Furest an account of a clump of the common yellow lady's slip per (Cypripedium l,Ibescens), which was set ill q shady place in garden Ia years ago. The plants have not received any care for the last 10 years; they have lowered every seaaon, and are as strong as ever. Now that orchids are so much admired such as this should not be over looked. Another species, C spectacle, is perhaps the finest of all our native or chids, and fourishes in d damp peat soil in the eshade.-[Country Gentleman.

FACTS FOE FARMERS.

Feeding good stock is one of the cheap est ways ofsecuring good manure.
 The rapid taking on of fat is not always a sure indication Of health and thrift.
 Animals ssf1a r4sAly thrive best on dry feed alone, no matter how rich or plenti- ful.
 The best ratio for feeding hay and grain is the one that will make the most money.
 If it barely pays to keep sheep that shears only four or five pounds of wool, one that shears seven or eight pounds ought to return good profit.
 The day has gone by when intelligent. wide-awske dairymen will keep lot of cows during the winter, eating up the profits of the eummer.

THE BIG BLIZZARDS.

The storm of Monday we may we'll call the Baby Blizzard including it's SUD- plement of Wednesday. The path break ing of Tuesday needed an intensified rep etition on Thursday. The present gener- ation has not been taxed excessively iD the matter of making snow paths, in this latitude. But now
 The people here may, henceforth, say,
 Of Baby Blizzard by the way,
 The mail from Warren did not run
 The day when George first saw the sun.
 The unpalatable part of the two-sliced blizzard, has been for those on our north ern border who carry their milk to Corn wall Bridge and those who were out of fuel just as it came and obliged to borrow of neighbors.
