GOLD AND GREENBACKs.
Local Bankers Said to Be Gathering
Them In


Them In.
It has frequently been remarked Of
late that there was less gold and fewer
greenbacks in local circulation than
usual, and 1t now appears that some
Of the banks, at least, are boarding UP
the precious metal, while the treasury
notes are also in demand by reason of
being at small premium on the New
York market.
The gold shortage seems to be due
to the concentration Of this coin in the
bank vaults preliminary to the pur-
chase Of the new issue Of government
bonds, although one Of the bank presi
dents said yesterday that he did not
think any Of the local banks were
likely to invest on their own account
They might, however, be saving the
coin in order to make such purchases
for the accommodation of their Gus
toners who might want them. AS for
the holding of greenbacks, he had not
noticed any such tendency and did
not know whether or not there was any
marked contraction of the amount in
local circulation.

CARE OF

After having used all possible care in
selecting the COW, a dairyman is re
ported in the Wisconsin Farm Insti
tutes to have said, and after you have
r~eligiously resolved to treat her with
kindness and consideration, your
profits for the year all depend on the
treatment you give her for thirty days
after freshening. Give special atten-
ton to her general condition and health
prior to this time-a prosperous, thirty,
ing, up grade condition preferred. It
is after f~reshening that all the skill and
judgment Of the herdsman is called
Che should have a box stall, and in
winter weather should be kept blank
eted and absolutely free from drafts of
cold air for thirty days. All water
given should have the chill taken eff,
and she should receive small quantities
frequently, especially for a few days.
Remember the COW has more or less
fever al this time; her temperature
ranging from 1O3 to 1881, or even 1C4
degrees is often reached without any
apparent disturbance. For this reason,
coupled with the fact that she is a
mother, performing the functions of
maternity, she is a sick COW, and in all
cases should be treated as such.
Twenty.four hours previous to parturi
ton We administer ] G ounce of nitrate
of potash in one pound of salts. After
fresheniDg she should receive ten drops
of aconite twice a day to counteract
the fever. If she is a heavy mixer
give no slop food for a week, or until
the danger period is passed. Don't ex-
pect an increased flow of milk until the
fever subsidies and she resumes a nor
nal condition.

MONEY IN EGGS.

The editor of Farm Poultry recently
made a call on @. H. Wyckcf, of Gro
ton, N. Y, and the figures be gives are
enough to convince one that there is
money in eggs. It is true, Mr.. Wyck
eff secures a high pr.ce for the product
of his hers, but he does this by fur
nishing good stock and making regular
shipments to parties who are willing to
pay for first class goods. He now win
tiers on an average 500 White Leghorn
hens, and from the past y ear sold 81, 800
worth of eggs. Feed cost him $500,
and the laoor is charged up at 1850,
This shows a profit of nearly 100 per
cent, exclusive of the cost of the stock,
which, of course, he still had on hand.
Mr.. Wy ckt If calls his stock business
White Leghorns, and has made a rec
ord of 1874 aggs each in a year from 600
birds,

Of g poultry business, a steady income

egg that pays the greatest profit, and
brings up the average price Of the year.
If the fowls lay in December, January
and February, when eggs are 30 to 80
cents a dozen, the average price for the
year will be satisfactory. The man
who wishes eggs in winter must re-
gard three simple rules. First, hatch
the chickens early; second, keep them
growing so the pullets will come to lay
ing maturity in October or November
third, keep them laying by good food
and c9re. d. not hatch too early. for
if the pullets begin laying IN August
and September, they will moult in De

several diaries, according to size OF
city or village. This is a matter that
many COW keepers would do well to
look into.
OF course selling milk direct to con-
sumers is always open to producers OF
it living near large cities and villages.
Selling skim milk and cream can be
made profitable by one or two milkmen
near cities of say from five to ten thou
sand inhabitants. Hotels, restaurants,
soda fountains and certain entertain
ments in society make good markets
for more or less cream.

LIVE STOCK.
LIVE Q NOTES.

One horse blanket is equal to a small
crib of corn.
Cob ground with the corn furnishes
very desirable bulk.
Charcoal is a mighty good thing to
throw to the hogs occasionally.
If you let the hogs bunch together
you will have sick hogs.
Smooth shoes on icy roads have per
manently injured many a good horse.
The Morgan horse has a splendid
future before it and has a splendid rec
ord behind it.
You can starve en- animal on corp,
even if 1t is as fat as a hog" Bone and
muscle must be fed.
Keep the stables clean. Horses stand
ing ia manure will likely give you a
chance to doctor scratches.
Clean feeding floors will help you
make better pork and preserve the
health Of the swine. = Western Plough

TO GROW GOOD HORSES.

The farmer who uses the dam for
his farm work can produce a foal at
a nominal cost. His only expenditure
in actual cash is for service fee. A
reasonable amount of work for the
dam is an advantage to the foal rather
than otherwise. Give the foal rapid
development and remember that a de.
cline in condition, a che OK in growth
means a shrinkege in profits. In this
way the horse stock of this country
may be improved, otherwise it will de-
~teriorate. By breeding better animals,
and by continued Improvement, the
healthy demand of foreign countries
will continue; otherwise it will abate.
When they cannot fad what their
market demands in this country they
will go elsewhere or produce them in
their W country. We cannot force
them to take what we have, regardless
of quality or characteristic. They are
masters Of the situation in that respect,
and we a only continU5 their patron
age by producing what they want.
He who is abreast of the standard of
excellence fixed by the markets in his
day will reap the profits, while he who
follows in the rear of the procession
will gather to himself only delusIon and
disaster.

MARKETS FOR DAIRY PRODUCTS

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
CoWkeeping faTmers-which most
farmers are or should be-should as a
class be constantly seeking new mar
kets for their dairy products. I 60
not mean by this that every farmer
should do so, for many of them have
satisfactory markets, end in such cases
it will be wise to let we'll enough alone.
Nor do I mean by seeking new markets
that such markets must always be
sought in distant localities. Many
times markets can be found near at
home, and some times they can be
created. Then again the adoption Of
an old, or the invention of s new dairy
product is equal to a new market.
From mlk can be produced cheese
in many varieties. If one decides to
go into cheese making and has an idea
of taking up anything different from
the common kinds, it would be we'll to
make a business of looking up the other
and less common varieties. In some
sections Of the country there is a grow.
ing demand for limberger and brick
cheese. A home demand for those
kinds, or for one of them, would make
q market for the product Of one up tC

TRAINING TaE HORSE.

TIE usefulness Of the horse depends
upon It's early training. The first part
Of this training should be completed
before the colt is a year old. During
this period it's disposition is formed
and It's future character IS fixed. It
will be docile, t~rac5abla ard gentle,
precisely as 1t has been raised during
the first few months OF lis life; and
whatever vices it may develop il the
future will all be due to errors made
now. The education of the young colt
should be such as to teach il subiec5ion
to its owner from the first. This is
done by using it to the halter, to lead,
and to be tied up, by the genClest treat
ment, frmness and force gently used

returns from the droppings they must
have the proper care. If they are not
kept dry they will deteriorate very
rapidly. For the preservation OF the
manure and the health of the fowls as
we'll. there is nothing better than a lib
eral application of fine road dust to the
floor under the roosts two or three
times a week. Some recommend plas-
ter, kainit, etc., but all of these cost
money, and the road dust may be had
without an outlay save the labor re
ouired to store it away.-Western

GREEN FOOD IN WINTER.

Strange to say, many farmers seem
to forget that their hens have a crav-
ing for something green during the
cold months as much as the farmer
himself has for potatoes, cabbage or
onions. An all grain diet is as bad for
the hen, if eggs are desired during the
winter, as is salt horse" for the sailor
on a long voyage. After a few weeks
neither is able to do good work. Ga
almost every farm there are bushels of
small potatoes. soft cabbage heads or
defective turnips thrown out and al
lowed to waste. II these are put into
pits and fed to the heLs during the
winter, there will be a wonderful in
crease in the number Of eggs gathered
each night. The cabbage will be CRATE
fully eaten if given raw, but the pota
toes and turnips should be cooked and
mashed up with ground feed for the
morning meal. This requires a little
trouble, but will replay amply for ii e
extra care taken.

kind in which light loads "a be drawn
as soon as the young animal is a year
old. Patit nee and judicious teaching
are all that may be necessary to bring
the colt to it's business when it is a year
old. Such training displaces the usual
breaking by forcible and cruel treat
ment, by which viciousness is developed
and horses are made fearful and terror
stricken when anything unusual hap

Don't give your friend a present and

Don't give your boy a drum and for,
bid him beating it, nor your daughter
a horse and order her not to take it
out of the stable without your permits

Above all things don't have the bad
taste to be forever harping On what
you would like to have for a Christmas
gift. Your friends N Y be attacked
with nausea and get you nothing.
Don't make your wife a gift of some
thing she has needed for an entire
year; for then it looks as if you made
a virtue Of necessity and cheated your
wife out Of a real Christmas present.
There is generally a fine field for the
exercise of charity within a block OF
your own home. Save your fl 4nnele
for your needy neighbors The heather
in South Airiea would find them too
warm.
The beauty Of making Christmas
gifts is leave the recipient convinced
that the present is an expression OF
friendship Or love. Don't make it ap.
pear as a formality, an obligation, or
because it was expected. Make the
gift a heart Offering or don't make it
at all. Be it ever so small an obisct,
inexpensive and of little value, if it
is given in the spirit of sincere friend
