Although we now have had eighteen
weeks OF the engineers lock out, and the
volume OF home trade is still short OF an
ticipations, there is little alteration in
the stocks OF copper. The months sup
plies - visible supplies - and deliveries
have remained much about the same
sInce the beginning of the year. These in
long tons we're as follows

Messrs. Morrison, kekeryich & Co., the
London metal brokers, in their circular
dated November 8, say:
Every strong buying OF copper has
been noticeable at times, but persistent
selling on the part OF the dealers and
American representatives prevents spec
ulation. and inclines consumers TO wait,
so as to reap the full benefit OF the reduc-
ton. In reviewing the situation the
favorable features appears to be: ID
Prices are CO lower than on the 10th OF
September, whereas consumption shows
no signs OF falling off, and the situation
is perfectly sound from a supply and de-
mand point OF view. (2) The existence
of an enormorous bear account. (3)
Consumers stock, particularly in Eng
land, are exceedingly small, probably
so per cent less than twelve months ago.
Stocks usually lying at the railway sta
tions are reduced to a minimum. az
Prices habitually advance towaI Dis Christ
mas. (5) This ia the time of year when
the sulphate demand sets in, and large
Withdrawals of bars from warehouses
will be made for It's manufacture. The
bear position seems to be: Q) By con-
pressing sales, large holders may
be induced to realize and enable them to
pick up American and other copper in
quantity. (2) Because America has been
making her normal sales, no improve
ment is even possible in American trade.

necessary to sweeten the milk with
sugar or dilute it with water. but it is
strongly recommended TO heat the milk

good prospects for wool II is likely that

spring lamb will have it. no matter
what the price. and the fattencd lamb
a year old is quite as good as that
dressed when only three or four months
old. II requires more careful feeding
To keep these yearling lambs in fatten'

Hens lay larger eggs than pullets-
Eggs from fat hens do not hatch well.
The best layers are usually the worst
sitters.
Sand is not good substitute for
gravel in the poultry yard
The nest is the Matching place FOR
lice as well as for chickens.
Much fat-producing food is not best
for laying or growing fowls.
The fowls are healthier when they
have TO scratch for their food.
Give the hens all Of the buttermilk
and skim milk they will drink.
Supply the laying hens with bones.
oyster shells and vegetables.
Unless hens lay we'll in winter they
will prove rather expensive TO keep
over.
The eggs of hen will hasch for ten
days after she is separated from the
roosters.

The improvements on the Main Line Oh
the Baltimore and Ohio, west OF, and be.
tween Martinsburg. w. Va, and North
Mountain, have been completed Novem-
her LIST. They cover a distance OF nearly
four miles, starting three miles west OF Mar
tinsburg. and extending some distance
west OF Myers Hole, which is near the N9ftn
Mountain station. At Myers Hole the me
was changed. taking out some very CD,
iectionable curvature, and the roadpeu
raised nearly fifteen feet, eliminating Two
grades Of AZ feet per mile which came To-
cether at Myers Hole and substituting there.
for an almost level track. This point on INC
road has always been a dangerous one ana
many freight wrecks have occurred there.
Apart from doing away with the dangerous
feature of two sharp down grades coming
together. as was the case IN TINS instance,
the saving in operation of the road by me
change will be very large, as 1t enables tht
TONS per train to be greatly increased and
reduces the liability of accident to the MN
mum. At Tahlcrs the road-bed has beer
lowered about l3 feet. and the same a.
Tabbs. besides taking out Objectionable curry
AZURE and reducing the rate OF grades a.
these points from ~ feet per mile to ~ Zee
per mile. thus increasing the cars that cal
be hauled per train. Though these improve
ments have cost quite sum OF money, III
expenditure is fully justified by the grea
saving in operation.
