1t is generally believed that fowls do
better and lay better III comparatively
small flocks, say twenty to fifty, than
in mob; the theory being that the
food is more evenly distributed and
individuals have a better opportunity.
We have seen thousand Plymouth
Rock hens running together, but they
divide up into fiocks of about fifty in
the twenty roosting pens on the main
floor of the poultry house; they We're
all in the basement of the house when
we saw them together. These We're on

On Mr.. Henry Van Dreser's farm,

Weigh the fruit and have an equal
quantity of sugar, the peel of a large
lemon and little ginger to each six
pounds of fruit. Lay the figs in cold
water for twenty four hours, then sim
mer them till tender. Put them again
into cold water and let them remain
for two days, changing the water ev-
cry day. If not quite soft simmer
again and replace in cold water. Take
the weight of the figs in sugar and
with about two-thirds of it make a
strip. Cook the figs gently in this for
ten or fifteen minutes. After forty
eight hours drain off the sirup. Add
the rest of the sugar pounded finely.
Boil this to rich strip, adding the
peel of the lemon and the ginger.

gether and put the jam in large pots

Grit For Chicks.

The New York experiment station
ascertained that the addition of
ground rock phosphate to rations both
with and without animal food was fol
lowed by better growth and, on the
whole, from less food than the addi-
ton of finely ground oyster shell.
Food mixed with finely ground oyster
shell was less healthful and less eff
Gent than the same food mixed with
fine sand.
Mixing bone ash and ground oyster
shell in the food resulted in more rap
id growth than the mixing of sand
alone, but injury attributed to ground
oyster shell made the feeding less
profitable.

How to BreatIae properly.

Do you ever observe whether you
breathe through the mouth or nostrils?
1t makes a wonderful difference. When
we talk we are forced to breathe
through the mouth; when not speak
ing the lips should be well closed, and
the breathing should be entirely by the
nostrils. But this is not ALL The habit
of slow, measured deep breathing that
covers the entire lung surface is of
more value and Importance than you
viii ever believe until you have tried
it, and when you have established the
habit of breathing in this manner you
will say some remarkable things in its
favor 1t will reach all points of your
physical system. N-All the benefits that
occur from healthy condition Of the
blood will in a greater or less degree
be yours, for the manner and complete
ness with which the inspired air comes
in contact with the blood in the lungs
are of the utmost Importance to every
vital process. The lungs are kind of
furnace in which the oxygen of the air
is consumed and combined with other
elements, process necessary to live
the perfection of which depends upon
the purity of the air and the manner
of inhaling it.

So closely are many of the new pieces

There is one way, however" declares
well known connoisseur in antique

tinguish between the genuine and its
copy. Put your knuckles against it as
you would against mirror to tell it's
real thickness. If it is well vanished
so that it brings out reflection Of the
fingers clearly, you may be sure it is
new; if the reflection is clouded it is

THE DOMESTIC GOOSE.
is Value as Market PouItry-Feed
For GosIinEs.


The price of geese in the eastern
markets during the past winter ranged
from 8 cents per pound for the lower
grades to 80 cents per pound for the
very finest, as sold in the best meat
markets in the large cities. Between
the lower and the higher prices they
quoted along 16, 20, "a, % and 80 cents
per pound, according to quality, says
the Feather. Those that are known
as mongrel geese demanded the higher
price The mongrel geese are the re-
suit Of crossing the wild Canada goose
with the African. This produces a
fine, large, high favored table fowl,
and this variety of goose brings the
highest prices when properly raised
and nicely presented for sale.
Geese will lay from twelve to as high
as thirty eggs in a season. 1t is always
better to permit the goose to hatch her
own eggs When there are more eggs
than the goose can take care of, they
can well be Matched under very large
chicken hens and the goslings turned
over to the goose to care for them.

for the young goslings. Never feed
them any whole corn or corn of any
kind Let all their food be mixed or
mashed food, rather dry, with a plenti-
full supply of cooked vegetables in
same Always provide plenty Of graz
ing on good grass or clover. After the
goslings are fairly well started they
will need but little attention or feed
ing, provided the grazing grasses are
rich and plentiful.
When fattening time comes the
young geese that are intended for mar
ket should be confined in close quarters
and fed plentifully on fattening foods
of all kinds A good diet to start
them is ground oats mixed with water;
after this some barley meal may be
added to same, and steamed or cooked
potatoes mashed up and mixed with
buekwheat flour and oats. All of these
mash foods may be fed warm, but not
hot.

How to Cure Sore Feet-Other VaIu-

An eminent doctor recommends the
following as cure for sore feet: Alum.
three ounces; tannin, one ounce; brown
vinegar, one pint; rose water, half a
pint. Mix and apply a little as lotion
after washing the feet.
A good recipe for insomnia is to sip
a tumbler of hot milk before going to
bed, as the milk and the heat thereof
have a soothing effect and produce a
drowsy sensation.
A quick and effectual way to remove
discoloration from bruises is to apply
freely warm olive oil on cotton wool.
Do not rub it in; simply apply it.
To cure infiamed eyelids battle the
eyes repeatedly in a solution composed
of two teaspoonfuls of brandy added
to cup of tea. If it is possible, keep
the eyes open once or twice while bath
ing them.
A small roll of paper or muslin placed
above the front teeth under the upper
lip and pressing hard upon the same
will often arrest nose bleeding.
To stop hemorrhage of the lungs,
wrap the thighs and arms above the
elbows with small strong cords tightly
drawn and tied This will stop the
flow of blood almost instantly.
A caraway seed between your teeth
should not be tackled with tooth
pick. Press your tongue firmly against
one of the teeth next to which the seed
is, avoiding the seed itself, or you
would press it in more firmly, and you
will find it fall.

Food For Goslings.

The best kind of food for the young
goslings is a mixed food or well pre-
pared mash food of some kind, which
may be fed to them in moderation at
first and thereafter as much as seems
necessary to keep them growing. Those
most successful with the growing of
geese seldom if ever feed them any
whole grain unless it might be at fat
tening time.-Feather.
