A Lesson for the British Volunteer.

The first thing the war teaches us is
that we ought to trust more than we do

into ordinary soldiers. The Beers march
as they please, dress, within limits, as
they please, as did also the Colonial men
in the first American war, and form as
they please, though they obey in this lat
ter respect some traditional rules. They
are expected to support each other rather
from willingness than from discipline,
and to rely on their rifles and their stead
mess under fire rather than any coher-
ence derived from drill. They do not as
yet stand up to bayonet charges we'll;
but how often is the bayonet charge pos
sible when the rifles are we'll handled?
1t takes the very best men to get through
that hail Of fire. aud the very best men
cannot always do 1t, Ito troops that the
world knows Of consentihg to charge
home when more than third of their
number are on the ground. The strength
of the Beer volunteers il not In their
drill, but IN their individual ability when
regulars ARE charging on them to await
their charge and keep Oh their desolating
fire. They wait till the assaiiing force is
actually In touch. That was the strength
of the New England militia against us,
and of HOfer's men against the French;
and we are not sure that we are not for
getting both how great that strength was,
and how best to develop it. We are, we
suspect, cultivating the company too
much, among volunteers we mean, and
the individual not enough. Yet it is as
individuals acting together that the Beers
are giving us such trouble.-Spectator.

Stock at Barns.

The work of this month is largely pre-
paratory for the winter work, and as no
small part of the work will be the chores,
in which is included the care Of stock,
milking and duties about barn and house,
there should be regular system about
them so that each may be taken in its
proper turn at the proper time. 1t will
be much easier to do them in this way,
and there Will be less chance Of any be-
ing omitted. We have seen man do
them tn such routine that It seemed as
if he could have gone the rounds III the
same way II he had been asleep. Yet
he went with eyes open all the time, and
when an. animal was fed he saw it. and
Ing; Or il it was ailing. TO this habit of
close observation he attributed much of
his success He never had a very sick
animal, for, they were noticed and treated
in season.
Where more than one has a share in
the work about the barns each should
have his own part, yet if one should be
sick or called away another should know
how he was accustomed to do his work,
a: and be able to do it in the same way.
The feeders should feed regular amounts
at. regular hours. No trying for "a
streak of fat and streak of lean," by
alternate periods Of stuffing and starving.
II any changes are to be made III quall-
tity or quality Of food given, it Is better
that they should be gradual rather than
sudden.
Avoid chaiiging mixers unless abso-
lutely necessary, but put no NAH at that
job who will not be gentle to the animals
under his care, neat about his work aid
punctual. 1t requires one Of good judg-
ment and close observation to be a sue
cessful feeder, as he must see that they
cat what is given and be able to judge
whether they need more or not. Remem-
Der that it requires a certain amount Of
food to sustain life, and the profit must
come from what may be eaten after that.
Providing fuel and water for the house.
hold use every day, where running water
is not in the house, is a mans work, and
some man should see that it is done and
done at the proper time. Churning and
lifting heavy pals and tubs or kettles are
better done by a strong man than by
woman, who has enough other work to
do. Yes, we know of some women who
have more powerful muscles than their
feeble husbands, and iii such cases the
heavy lifting may be done by the strong
er party, but this does not change our
rule, which was general one, and may
not be adapted to some particular cases.
