Lowest Exceeds Appropriation by Sev- eraI Thousand DOIIars-Minor Con- tracts Awarded in Scranton Street SchoOl--Recommends More Ground
 for Gamer Street schooI--Term Schedule Adopted for 10O0-'O7. Several matters of importance were taken up and disposed of at the meet ing of the Board of Education held last night. The contract for placing black l boards in the Scranton street school was awarded to Kenny Bros. & Vol kins, of Boston, at the price of $SS9' | The contract for toilet facilities in the same school was awarded to J. B. Bin- 1 gen. The matter of Skinner school was referred to the building committee with power to act if they can obtain for the work the extra $96 over the appropria- | tion of 5000.
 In view of the fact that the Stephen | Whitney property, at the rear of the | Hooker school on Gamer street, is for sale, 1t was voted to call the attention l of the Board of Finance to this, and to recommend that additional ground be | purchased for playgrounds and possl- | ble addition, There is only eighteen 1 feet at the rear of this school at the present time, and several citizens in the vicinity of the school have agitated the | question of late.
 No action was taken on the Kimberly avenue school bids, because the lowest 1 is several thousand dollars above the | appropriation.
 l The following term schedule for 1906- 1907 was adopted as recommended by l the committee on schools: Fall term to begin Monday, Septem- 1 Der 1O and end Friday, December 21. Winter term to begin Wednesday, i January 8, and end Friday, April 5,
 Spring term to begin Monday, April 15; and end Tuesday noon, June 20,

TRATNTNG THE COLT.


weaving time is a critical period in
on it and tie it beside its mother
at night, letting it run with her in
the day time for a few days, then
wean it altogether, but do not keep
it tied in the stable or yard, or bet
ter, pasture with other colts, yearl-
ings or two year ODDS, that it is &C
quainted with, and it will grow right
along. Feed it we'll the first winter,
give it the best hay you have, some
corn fodder, plenty of oats, little
bran and some carrots if you nave
them, so that it never loses its colt
fat. After the pasture is good, gradu-
ally decrease the oats until 1t is on
pasture alone. 1t will grow fast and
go into winter quarters in line con-
dition. Feed them we'll the next
winter, in fact, we always feed well.
| have heard farmers say that II
you wanted good tough horse you
should let them rough it out doors
in storms, with little or no grain.
have seen some of these colts and the
only toughness I could see about
them was their looks; they did look
pretty tough.
like to break these colts to harness
in the, winter or spring before rney
are three years old. Hitch them up
with their mother, if she is good,
steady animal, or some other steady
horse that they are acquainted "lth'
work them lightly until they become
accustomed to the work. Never work
a colt until it is very tired. some
seem to think ycn should tire them
out the first time you hitch them UP.
Do not do it, you may spoil them al
together. Do not break them, but
educate them, and do not try to edu-
cate them all at once as the old Dutch
man did. He had his colt broken
to ride, and he wanted to get 1t &C.
customed to sights and sounds, SO ne
told his son Hans to go behind the
straw stack and when he rode by to
jump out and say "boof," so Hans
went behind the straw stack and when
the old man and colt came along olo
as he was told. The colt gave one
bound and left the old fellow on the
ground. He got UP, rubbed his shlns
and said: "Mein Colt, Hans, you make
too big boof!"
Most of us are trying to do the
work on our farms without enough
horses; we had better have an extra
horse or three-year-old colt. In this
way we can change horses, and give
the brood mare and three-year-od colt
a rest at times, and if a horse gets
a sore shoulder we can let him rest
and heal it up, whereas, if we are
obliged to work him all through spring
work, we may have a shoulder that
will always bother us.-David lmrie,

HOW TO HOUSE POULTRY.

If houses for poultry are to be built,
attend to the matter at once, before
cold weather interferes with outside
work. Everything should be in readl-
ness for your flock by the coming of
cold weather. If you have houses al
ready, go over them and see that
they are in perfect repair.
In building, the first thing to do is
to select a proper location. The ideal
one is the south slope of hill. The
next best one is place protected
from cold winds by buildings on the
north and west. If no facilities for
shelter are at hand, the north wall OF
the building must be made OF extra
thickness. Evergreen trees make an
excellent wind-break, and l would &d-
wise planting them for future protec-
ton, no matter how thick you make
the walls of your house.
Be very sure that whatever loca-
ton you select has perfect drainage.
. This is a matter of the greatest i'm
portance Leading poultrymen agree
that more sickness among fowls or
lSludlOS sidh ltO'i N@A
other causes. More and more the
opinion grows among practical poul-
trygrowers that the best house for
fowls consists of a closed room. in
which they may roost, lay and remain
in cold weather if they choose to do
so, and a shed opening to the south,
where they can scratch and sun them
selves to their liking There should
be an opening between this shed and
the closed room, through which the
fowls may have free egress during
the day, but which should be closed
at night in cold weather, and for the
protection of the hens from intruders.
The shed floor should be covered with
chaff, straw or leaves, to the depth
of FIVE or six inches If road dust
or sand is mixed with it, the better
the fowls will be suited. If grain
is scattered over the litter, the fowls
will busy themselves scratching foS
it. and this open air exercise will
be a strong factor in keeping the
flock healthy. 1t will also result
in a larger yield of eggs. if an egg
producing diet is given in connec-
ton with it.-Eben E. Rexford in
Making the Country Home in The
Outing Magazine.

THE MANURE HEAP.

Manure that has been carefully
kept under cover and properly COM
posted will show it's effect almost i'm
by heavy rains and exposed to drying
winds and the suns rays it will be
of but little value, although it may
not be worthless, as something OF
more or less value will remain, but
whether it will pay for the labor and
expense of hauling it is a doubtful
matter
All kinds of manure should be kept
under cover to avoid heavy rains. A.
leakage here and there, or a little
water on it now and then, is not dis
advantage, but by no means allow the
manure to be soaked by drenching
rains, for they carry away the most
valuable portion of it, Prepare a.
suitable place for the manure slop-
ing towards the center and under
cover
First put down layer of muck,
road dirt or forest mould, over which
place thick covering of leaves, and
LnSu I1blOW Ou C1lS Il IlAO
to ti1Ae, let all the soapsuds and liquid
manures be thrown over the solids
As soon as the manure has been plac
ed on the heap commence the pro-
cess again with the dirt and leaves
If the leaves are not handy use waste
bedding of the stables and pens.
Always finish by leaving the man
ure covered Keep it damp, but in no
case let it get drenched. Moisture,
however, will assist decomposition, es-
pecially if the liquids of the stable
are used. 1t will be an advantage to
sprinkle the heap every day, or when
ever the manure is thrown out, with
diluted surphuric acid, which not only
decomposes it and renders it soluble,
but also converts the ammonia into
sulphate of ammonia Do not avoid
the little extra labor, but take good
care of the manure heap for therein
is the wealth of the farm.-The Epito-
mist.

Ing; and the cooking of potatoes.
which was formerly believed advant-
ageous, has been shown to be of no
advantage whatever in case of milch
COWS, although it was of some ad.
vantage to pigs.
Laid, while connected with the
New York State station, reported an
alyses of cooked and uncooked Glow
er hay and cornmeal and determine
lions of the digestibility of the same.
These showed that the percentage of
albuminoids and fat and the relative
d1gestibility of the albuminoids were
more or less diminished by cooking.
The experiments made by our ex-
pertinent stations in preparing food
have been mostly with pigs. AT
least thirteen separate series of ex-
periments in different parts of this
country have been reported on the
value of cooking or steaming food for
pigs. In these, cooked or steamed
barley meal, cornmeal and shorts;
whole corn; whole corn and shorts;
peas, corn and oatmeal; potatoes,
and a mixture of peas, barley and
rye have been compared with the
same foods uncooked (and usually
dry). In ten of these trials there
has not only been no gain from cook
ing, but there has been positive
loss, i. e., the amount of food re-
quired to produce pound of grain
was larger when the food was cooked
than when it was fed raw, and in
some cases the difference has been
considerable In the three excep-
tional cases there was either no gain
at all or only very slight gain from
cooking or steaming, amounting to
. per cent. in one case.-From Feed

The Risks Of Railway travel.

The comparative immunity from
injury and death enjoyed by travellers
and employees on English railways has
often been the subject of comment,
and the statistics of the English
roads for the year past lend added
weight to the comparison between
these roads and our own in the re-
spects mentioned From this show
ing it appears that in the period nam
ed in Great Britain six passengers
were killed, or one out of every 1884,
75S,000 carried, and 534 were injured
or one out of every 2,244,472 carried.
In the United States, in the same
space of time, 262 passengers were
killed, or one out of every 2,730,609
carried, and 534 were injured, or one
of out every 149, 107 carried. With
regard to the railway employees, the
net results is that in America one in
every 357 was killed and one in nine
teen injured, while in Great Britain
one in every S45 were killed and one
in every eighty-six was injured. 1t
should be added, in justice to the
American railway management, that
the risks of travel and employment
on American roads are necessarily
greater. since the distances traversed
here are much longer, many of the
roads newer, and the physical OBJ
stacles to be overcome much greater
in many instances Weekly.

eillinsssate's Birth.

Just as no man can say with ac-
curacy when Billingsgate was born
SO none can say who its godfather
was, says a London newspaper. Many
guesses, romantic and prosaic, have
been made, bat nobody has had the
courage to go further. Belinus, the
son Of Lud, divides the honors with
