0ld-Time Barns.

There is some difference between the
modern barns, in which the manure
never freezes aud the cattle never shi-
yer, and those ancient structures with
cracks between the boards, through
which the wind could enter freely,
and in which one needed to chop the
manure'up with an ak before it could
be shovelled out. This difference
means that a less amount of food is
needed to keep up the animal heat,
that more milk can be produced for
more mohths in the year and that The
farmer can milk and care for his stock
without suffering from the cold.
Again he is more apt to be thorough
about it than he would he if it was
zero weather in the barn.
We know Of modern barns in which
water would not freeze in our coolest
nights, yet that are so well ventilated
that there is no disagreeable edor i'm
them on to he impaired to the milk.
Those who have such barns make
money farming and enjoy the business
at the same time. On the other hand,
we know of some barns so different IN
aud detail that those who
work in them hate the milk business
and the cows as well, declaring that
there is no profit in the business. And
finally we should think tie cows
would hate the one who owns them.

The foremost Of the world write the literature
Of contemporaneous activity for THE FORUM.

According TO writer in the Amer.
ican Dairyman, modern Utopia ex.
lists in a little dairy community in
Delaware county, New York, which
has a population of 60 persons. The
writer says that although this is one
OF the Oldest settlements in he county,
there has never been law suit
among its residents and goes on to
describe the spot where "brethren
dwell together in peace :" This little
community has over 500 cows and
each farmer in it is dairyman. rhe
harmony that has always existed
among its residents makes il UNIQUE in
many ways. A system of co-opera-
hon In ownership and use of farm i'm
PIGMENTS prevails. An exchange of
farm labor is also practiced. In such
harmonious neighborhood matters
OF mutual interest are widely discuss
ed and freely experimental with for
the common good. Here the theory
that to restore virgin fertility to a
WORKOUT farm is best accomplished
bv Keeping all the stock possible and
crop but little has crystalized into fact.
Although primarily dairymen, the
farmers of this model neighborhood
also raise great numbers OF pigs and
engage in fruit culture to large ex-
tent. The beehive also embelishes
every farm. Good roads are found TO
be the cheapest as well as the best IN
this Arcadlan settlement in Delaware
county, where peace and plenty pre-
vail and prosperity abounds.

Warm Water TO Ripen Fruit.

French growers have for some time
resorted to the expedient of watering
their espalier-trained cherry trees ire
quently with warm water, in order to
hasten the ripening of the fruit. The
same means have been successfully
employed by Dutch gardener to ripen
the fruit on grape vine. This, a
late variety, also trained ospaier fash
ion, had never given a well-ripened
bunch. The warm water treatment
hurried the fruit along to such an ex-
tent that the punches have come to full
maturity ever since this treatment was
begun. We imagine that the water
may be used pretty hot without dan
ger, and that its efficacy can still be In
creased if it is made to hold plant
foods in solution. We invariably use
our hot soapsuds either on orchard
trees, oron cucurbitaceous (gourd. like
I liant in the garden.--Am. Gardening.

The Only Way to Help the Poor.

The problem of rendering help TO
the unemployed, without doing more
harm than good, is as serious problem
as any that contemporaneous civiliza-
ton has to deal with. Out of hun
dreds of methods that have been pro-
posed and tried there is the smallest.
possible percentage that have been
successful. There are more conscien-
tious or well-informed students of this
problem, than the Rev. DR.. Lyman
Abbott and Mrs. Josephene Shaw
Lowell of New York, both of whom
out OF their long study and their wide
experience write instructive articles
for the February of the Forum. Ii isl
remarkable that both these writersN
each treating the subject independent
ly of the other, note the fact that thN
best solution of the problem of poverty
perhaps, after all. the only solution, is
through the personal work of well-to
do people directed with discretion to-
ward the personal encouragement and
help of particular families or individ-
uals. If every person in comfortable
circumstances We're TO make it part
OF his duty to give proper aid aud
personal encouragement to some other
person less fortunately situated, the
whole problem of poverty would dis
appear-except Of course, that por-
lioA fit which nothing can cure, the.
portion that has its origin in a help
less breakdown of character or Of
health, or both.

clubs would do wisely to take charge
nf certain ranges. each man making u
his business to see that the birds in hi
range do not lack TODD during colo
snaps. A plentiful supply of grain can
be carried by sleigh or wheels t.
within. at least, a reasonable distance
of covers known to certain birds.
After that it is no serious task to
back a sack into the cover and depos-
it the grain at points where the sign
shows the birds use most, Keep the
birds crops full, and crust and
'vermin' are about the only foes to be
dreaded.
"But there is one thing about feed
ing quail which should not be forgot
ten. When grain is continually
placed at certain points, the birds sell
dom wander far from the food, and
this fact is speedily grasped by fox,
hawk and prowling cat. These ras-
Gals are also likely.to establish them
selves near the food, and as they don't
eat grain, the rest is easy to guess.
The man who places the food will
probably, on his second or third visit,
see hawk near the pace, or one of
those scourges, half-wild cat, sneak
ing off through the cover. He should,
therefore, make it rule to carry gun
and a couple of shells, and to make
sure work of every freebooter. An
other excellent plan is to prepare one
or more stout poles, long enough to
rise we'll above the cover. A small
bit of board, just large enough to
afford convenient point of observa-
ton for a hawk, and, incidently, to
support steel trap, should be nailed
fiat on one end of the pole, the trap
set and fixed on it and the pole placed
on end and what appears to be the
best point near the food Hawks are
given to alightimg upon just such con-
venient perches, for observation, and
one or two traps so placed will do fine
work during the severe weather. The
poles are easily lowered for the reset
ting Of the traps, and what little
trouble the process entails is confined
to the initial arrangements. If they
are set in cover which offers 700 many
natural handy perches, few strokes
with an axe and a little knocking
down of dead stuff will remedy the
difficulty. The pole and trap should
