Comhn I'm Gold Weather

Every winter damages the birds more
or less by injuring the combs. When a
comb is frosted il turns black and often
the points decay and fall off. 1t is very
painful, and results in loss of eggs, as
the birds will not lay until the comb is
thoroughly healed. The wattles also
freeze, especially when wet, as is the
case with birds that drink from an open
vessel. The best remedy for frosted
combs is to keep the birds free from
draughts and anoint the combs with a
few drops of glycerin and crude petro-
leum mixed. TO prevent the difficulty.
If necessary, cut Off the combs and wat
ties with sharp knife or shears, dip
the head in alum water and put tie
birds in n dry, warm place. Should the
weather be warm rub the cut surface
with crude petroleum as protection
against flies.-American Gardening.

Advantages of Rotation.

The value of rotation of crops in pre-
venting plant diseases has been strik-
ingly shown in some experiments with
egg-plants. One plat of ground had
been grown with this crop for three
successive years, when the crop was
compared with that of another plat on
which elephants had been previously
grown. Rot was prevalent on the old
path. There were five times as many
sound fruits upon the new as upon the
old land. The percentages of decayed
fruits were only 10 per cent, against 81
per cent.-Farmers' Review.
