KEEPS OF NEW THINGS HOW
READY In MANY DEPARTMENTS.

Probably our term early spring seems
little premature in February. 1t
should not, however. January 1st marks
the closing period of the Dry Goods win

country over are now engaged in show
ing their customers New Spring Stuffs.
The advantage is all on the side of a
customer. Instead of providing the work
necessary to prepare you to meet the
spring season, when it arrives, into q
few short weeks, you have now the
choice OF making that preparation de-
liberately. and can occupy two months
at It..
Then the choice things are always
shown early. II for no other reason
this should be sufficient for you to buy
now. We invite you to call and inspect
lines already open.

Warmth In Poultry Houses.

Probably no poultry question so
much affects the pocket of the farmer
rs the question of warmth in winter.
Many opinions have been expressed on
the subject by poultry writers, and
they have not been all on the same
side of the question. Some would
have the poultry man keep u stove in
his poultry house to keep the fowls
warm in the cold nights. In some
Llaces it became quite common sight
to see well built poultry house with
stove pipe sticking through the roof.
This might not be Objectionable in q
new country, heavily wooded, where
fuel could be obtained at the expense of
cutting it. 1t might be a good way in
which to sell the trees. But in most of
he locations where commercial poultry
aising is carried on, fuel of all kinds
has become dear, and 10 use it in the
winter requires good deal of figuring
o be sure that IL will not be an ex-
pensive luxury. The question then
arises, is it not cheaper to build
house so that the warmth from the
bodies of the fowls will make the tenn
pcrature tolerable, even in the coolest
nights? Then another question arises,
what sort of building is necessary? 1t
would be very interesting expert
ment If some of the readers of
the FARMERS REVIEW would take up the
question now. With two cheap Their
nometers and blank book, much
,aluable data could he gathered

cows generally are rather poor milk

ruin COW from milking well. If the
COW is allowed to run with the calf
there is no development of size of I'D

PATENT GGGs.-A Press dispatch says:
Patent eggs have been driven out of
Ohio markets by the state food com
missioner, who last week seized ship
ment of desiceated eggs en- route from
the manufacturer, M. M. Cunningham,
in New York, to q Cincinnati dealer.
Cunningham wired the agent here to
settle the case and try to do no more
business in Ohio, as he had more orders
than he could fill from other states.
The desiccated eggs are sold at 45
cents per pound, and one pound is
equivalent TO six dozen eggs. The
commissioners chemist says the al
bumen in the desiccated egg is OBJ
tanned from the eggs of fish eating sea
birds, which can be secured by the mil
lion on the low uninhabitable islands
along the Atlantic coast. They are
not fit for food, and the albumen alone
is taken from them in making desic-
Gated eggs. The patent egg is used
largely by hotels and bakeries.

Eject of Cabbage ON Buttcr.

A bulletin of the Iowa station tells
of an experiment with cabbage for
mich cows, as follows: From Nov, %
to Nov. 81 the effects of cabbage is
shown from the analysis; fourteen of
the cows show higher per cents of but
ter fat; six show slightly lower per
cents. The milk table shows increase
in the quantity. The cabbage is pal
atable and readily eaten. Its effect on
the quality of butter is the point in
quired into here, more especially; but
it is noticeable that the change from q
more milk without decreasing the fat
per cent. BY comparing the amounts
of milk given daily by the twenty
cows Nov. Is with the amounts given
toward the close of the ninety-seven
days, it will be seen that the vol
ume of milk held up quite well when it
is remembered that it was winter work
with herd, half of which were in the
last months of their period of lactation,
when the tendency with many cows is
to give less milk, or dry up entirely.
The creamery experts report that the
butter from the cabbage ration did not
keep we'll, but gradually became
tainted. Prof. Patrick's analyses of
the vegetables fed show the cabbage
to be the lowest in volatile acids and
to have the highest melting point, ex-
cepting the rutabaga

HENS AND GRAPEvINEs AN English
authority calls attention to the fact
that some of the best French poultry
emanates from the wine districts of
France. In the Medoc, where claret
comes from, they are to be seen in
large numbers, although the vines are
not more than fifteen inches in height.
Here they are given full liberty and
allowed to wander where they like
for ten months in the year, only being
removed during July and August, when
the grapes are ripening. Instead OF
being injurious they are found to be
very serviceable indeed in clearing the
vines of insects and grubs; cleaning the
land and supplying it with valuable
manure. This arrangement fits in with
the requirements for poultry, for by
the beginning of July there has been
great reduction in numbers, the
chickens for marketing purposes having
all been killed by that time, and thus
the stock is more limited in number
than IL would be earlier in the year.

carbolic Acid In the Hen Houses.

Until the discovery of the uses of this
acid, poultrymen, as well as hosts of
others, were sadly in need of some de-
odorizer and disinfectant, though now
we have something which can be re-
lied upon for the purposes, while the
various uses it can be,and has been APP
piled to, are so numerous we shall not
attempt to enumerate them. Lice,
mice and other parasites which infcst
the poultry house, as well as the
poultry, have a wholesome dread of
this acid, the odor from it, which is
very penetrating, causing them to skip
for pastures new in doublc-quick time.
II has also been used, diluted with
with water, as n remedy for scab leg
or poultry itch, but it must be used
with caution here, or it may cause con-
siderable suffering at the time to the
fowls.--Planter and Granger.

VETcHEs AND OATS. While on our
trip last summer in Nova Scotia and
New brunswick, several fields of oats
and vetches grown together for dairy
feed, attracted our attention. Both
plants were in strong growth and we
learned that they are considered supe-
rior in feeding value to oats and peas.
The vetches do not fall down as easily
as the pea, and this is valuable con-
sideration. The vetch is considerably
grown in Canada and is rapidly coming
into favor among dairymen. But few
of our American farmers know any
thing about the plant and we believe it
is time to commence obtaining some
practical knowledge of so valuable n
forage plant. The vctch is one of the

pearance, and is rated very high rs n
