A good many of our grain-grOwing
farmers of western New York, says z.
c. Reynolds, make a practice of picking
UP enough sheep late every autumn 10
consume their spare fodder and coarse
grains, feeding them a few weeks until
they are fitted for the shambles and then
disposing of them in the best accessible
markets. So far as L have been &C
quainted with these feeders l have
learned that they generally realize about
as much for their crops in the form of
mutton as they could have done in their
crude forms and enough more to pay
cost of feeding, leaving the rich manure
upon the farm as clear profit. Where
such result can be attained it is a good
investment in the line of profitable farm
ing.
Successful feeding depends largely
upon the selection of good, healthy,
thrifty, improbable sheep, warm quar-
tiers and a, constant supply of pure
water. IN addition to this, they must
have regular feeding Of sensible ratiOns
by the same man. Sheep are timid ami
mails and nothing that will brighten or
worry them should be permitted. One
very successful feeder Of my acquaint-
ance was in the habit of gathering every
autumn a flock Of long-woOled lambs,
generally Cotswolds or of other good
mutton breeds. He thought they made
ptlltI SdlllS NlldAl Olutt VI lAlOlE NOIlilaOU
sheep. They are of right age to find
a very ready sale at highest prices.
Others have succeeded fairly by feed
ing older sheep Of MerinO grades.
Bright clover hay makes an excellent
foundation for a ration and it should be
fed in appropriate racks Whole shelled
corn and oats in about equal proportions
by weight make good grain ration
which is improved by the addition Of
wheat bran. Many have found it a good
practice, after the morning feed of hay
and grain is consumed To fill the racks
with straw for them TO pick over until
their evening feed. Water should be
brought to them in their sheds so that
they may help themselves freely at any
time. without going out into the cold.
Sheep, even in cold weather, will drink
quite frequently if water is of easy &C
cess, although they may not drink much
at a time. One thing Of the greatest
importance is that they shall be fed
regularly. at stated times, every day
and by the same man.

why some FAN with Poultry.

Nearly every farmer keeps chickens,
and Yet the foreigners are called upon
for eggs. NJ. J. Marshall tells us why
this is so. Says he:
Millions of eggs are annually imported
Why IS this so? One principal reason is
Why 81 this so? One principal reason is
because the poultry business on the
farms Is not managed as il should be.
Nearly every farmer in the land, and a
great many that are not farmers, are
continually striving to supply that de-
mand. But only a small portion Of them
are producing more than enough to sup
ply the needs of their own household.
1 think you viii agree with me that
the cost of producing a dozen eggs, I'M
der ordinary circumstances, is very
small compared with their average price
in market. Then why are we not pro-
ducing more eggs, as nation? First,
the lack of practical knowledge of how
10 successfully breed and manage poul-
try with a view to profit in egg pro-
duction.
Many that are attempting ii are going
ii blind, so 10 speak. without the aid of
any brooks or periodicals upon the sub
ject, but are under the impression that
they know all about il. simply because
they know that if a hen is determined
to sit and she happened to have a few
eggs under her, and if the pigs or some
thing else did not come along during
incubation and eat eggs, hen and all,
she will. at least at the end of three
weeks, hatch two or three wee bits Of
chickens. 10 be dragged around through
the weeds and wet grass until the gapes
or some kindred disease relieves them of
the burden of life. This is about all he
knows about il and he thinks-well. they
may import their eggs. this business
don't pay
When his hens are successful and lay
we'll he is generally too careless TO
gather them except, perhaps, on Sunday
morning, when he is lOafing around look
ing after things in a sort OF a general
way, he stumbles upon nest in a straw
stack with about forty eggs in and three
hens trying To spoil them. He takes
them in the house and puts them into
a bucket Of water to test them, to see
which are the least stale: the rest go
over the fence into the adjoining field.
And about every fortnight the schoolboy
is sent under the barn upon his hands
and knees upon a similar errand. He
generally drags out from two TO four
dozens of similar produce. No wonder
the farmer thinks this does not pay,
and we'll he may when the system Of

APPLES.
Recipes for Various Excellent Dishes
Made of Apples.


A most delicious compete of apples is
made of firm. tart apples, peeled, cored
and quartered. Put the apples in the
oven in a po=celain-Iined dish. with just
water enough to prevent their burning.
About a cupful will be required for
quart of apples. Add a cup of sugar
and the yellow peel of half lemon in
bits, and let the apples cook, covered
with a china plate, for about three
quarters of an hour. AT the end of this
time the quarters of apples should be
nearly transparent and thoroughly done,
but whole Cool a little of the juice,
and if it is not yet a jelly boil it down TO
one. Remove the apples to the dish in
which they ar to be served. For this
amount Of apple add a tablespoonful of
brandy to the jelly and pour the jelly
over the cooked apples in the compete
dish. Let them then stand for at least
twenty-four hours to become thoroughly
set before they are served. Serve them
with whipped cream.
A compete Of apples, cooked whole,
but peeled and cored, is very nice. 1t
may be prepared in the same way as the
CHARTERED apples, except that the place
OF the cores should be filled by some
fine jelly or marmaIade, like crabapple
or peach. The apples may then be
served surrounded by whipped cream.
sweetened and favored with maraschino.
Ginger apples are made by boiling a
quarter Of a pound of ginger-root in a
quart of water. The ginger root should
be scraped and cut in slices Let ii
boil in the water for half an hour. Then
add four pounds of sugar and the Juice
and yellow rind of three lemons, and
finally five pounds of pippins, peeled,
cored and cut in quarters. Boil a few
OF the apples at time in the syrup
until they are clear. When they are all
cooked in this way pour the syrup over
them with the ginger-roOt and lemon
peel. Let them stand sealed up two or
three weeks before beginning TO use
them. Any firm, well-flaVored fall apple
will do for this purpose There is a
large fall apple that frequently has
transparent places through it's pulp,
which makes an especially nice ginger
apple.
small, sweet apple like a russell is
generally chosen for a spiced or sweet
picked apple. AS russets do not come
into perfection until spring, a small lady
apple may be used in the fall or any
very firm, sweet, small apple. Stick two
cloves in each apple. Take out the
flower Of the apple and the stem, but
do not peel it. Make a syrup in the
proportion of four pounds of sugar to
two quarts Of vinegar. Boil the apples
whole in the vinegar and sugar until
they are tender enough TO be pierced
with a straw Then add two ounces Of
cassia buds and about an ounce of whole
mace. A little ginger-root is an excel
lent addition TO this spiced fruit. Put
two ounces of the root. scraped and
sliced in the vinegar and sugar before
you begin to cook the apples.-N. Y.

A Regulator Needed.

The writer put up new stove two
months ago and since then has carried
from the cellar every ounce of coal used
in it. 1t used up an immense amount
of fuel and still did not give wholly
satisfactory heat. Investigation proved
that the draughts could not be nicely
regulated. If we closed them we could
not get heat enough; If we opened them
we had too much heat, and wasted fuel.
n damper in the stove pipe gave just
the check needed and we have been
able to save enough coal to run a crate
fire. Before that, fuel was wasted in
heat that went up the chimney. Now we
get the benefit of it. That stove is like
most men. They waste time and energy
by doing too much or too little. When
they do too much there is d surplus
wasted when they do too little IT is al
most all wasted because the job amounts
to little. Such men need a damper-a
regulator-and the place for it is inside
the head. 1t may besa question, though,
whether the average man most needs a
damper or a draught.-Rural New York

Extending Our Mnrket..

The cry Of "adulteration' is used TO
prevent the increase Of our exports of
food products TO foreign countries. An
American, writing from Germany. saws:
Extended sojOurns in Europe Justify
me in expressing the belief that the
market for our food products could be
considerably extended here If the proper
effort were made. The most important
obstacle to be overcome Is to clear them
OF the reputation attaching to them Of

analysis published by the boards of
nealth, our lard, flour, canned goods.

and their standing in the market is

When American canned beef was first
introduced into the country in consider
able Quantities. a number Of prominent
German newspapers and farm journals
tried 10 prejudice the people against il
by asserting that the cattle were dis

clean, but this had little effect. as the
demand for our beef is on the increase
II may be Of interest to state here that
there is a good deal more adulteration
Practiced even in Germany than is gen.
orally supposed, and as far as my ex-
perience goes their live stock is no
healthier than ours. That a great part
OF the milk, butter and cheese sold in
the cities is adulterated is a well-known
fact. OF q thousand samples Of butter
bought at the markets and stores in
Berlin several weeks ago. II was found
upon analysis that ia were adulterated,
in many cases with as much as 90 per
cent. Of oleOmargarine. The losses to
German farmers by the cattle plague
and hog cholera amount annually to
millions Of marks. and nearly all Of the
neighboring states have for this reason
