Twin Lambs.

An experienced breeder says that In
the case of twins it is well to pace
them with the mother in a small, sep
arate pen for a day or two, in order
that they may become acquainted, and
to avoid the danger of one Of the lambs
straying away, which may cause trou-
BILE. When lambs are born weakly
more care is required, and unless the
shepherd is with them to see that they
are sucked soon after birth they are
liable to become chilled and die. II
the lamb is too weak to stand up and
suck, it should be held up and some
milk MIXED into it's mouth, when II
will soon take the teat and help itself,
or the eve may be gently laid upon her
side and the lamb brought to the teal
on its knees or side, and held, as above

there are 1892, 900 horses in this coun-

the average value per head is $93.4O
Anybody knows that has tried to buy
horses of late that the average per

the number of horses in this country

there being too many horses, there are

SECTIONAL VIEW OF 1cEHoUsE.

Second-rate pine boards were used for
siding, which was nailed on the inside
of the frame. The roofing was made
Of similar material as the sides, but of
little better quality.
In filling, space is left between the
wall and the ice, to be packed with
sawdust. The crevices between the
cakes are filed with fine ice shavings.
but no sawdust is used between or on
top of the layers of ice until the filling
is done, when about one foot of saw
dust is placed on top.
Openings must be left near the peak
of the roof to secure ventilation, and
the sawdust filling at the sides must
be kept firm and solid while the Ice
is being removed in summer. 1t Is
important to locate the icehouse
where there will be good drainage
Poor drainage at the bottom of the
ice or allowing air to circulate at the
top will quickly spoil the contents oil

Winter Poultry Notes.

When your hens sing know then that
they are feeling good and will lay.
Hens will not lay well or thrive I'M
less they have plenty of sunlight. Keep
the windows clean.
Don't fuss around your hens too
much. Like some people, they want to
be let alone at times.
Take the chill off the water. Hens
will not lay many eggs If they are
compelled to drink ice water and eat
corn mixed with snow.
Get rid of tie useless eockerels and
old hens. Stuff them and they will
grow fat and tender-not too tender
but enough to grace a boarding house
table.
Throw some rusty nails in the drink
ing trough. The hens need the iron as
q tonic. But do not let anything else
besides clean water go In with the
nails.
Dressed fowls, wrapped in clean,
white paper and packed in new boxes
will bring enough more to pay well for
the trouble 1t is not hard to get tor

better Results with Corn.

According to the estimate made by
the government a few weeks ago, the
average per acre Of corn produced in
Texas this year is only about five bush
els below that of Iowa, one of the
greatest of the corn-producing States.
In the amount produced it was esti-
mated that Texas would be fifth In the
States Of the Union. This is a splen-
did showing compared with what it
was only a few years ago, and is ac-
counted for by the fact that the Texas
farmer is beginning to realize the great
advantage there is in raising his own
meat and bread, and in the further fact
that the Texas Corn Growers Associa-
ton has done come splendid work In

the farmer in growing corn, but also

MONEY FACTS
Ee..Ie Known Points About Worlds
Medium of Exchange.


L...le Known Points About Worlds !
Medium of Exchange.
While the first actual coming OF
money is attributed to Pheidon, King
of Argos, in S95 B. G., it must not be
supposed that there had not existed
keen appreciation Of the value and
uses of money for centuries previous
to the Introduction Of coinage. The
ancient Egyptians had gold and sill
yer standard of currency, and their
money was in the form of gold and
silver ornaments, rings and nuggets,
the purchasing power of which depend
ed on the weight.
The Greeks improved somewhat on
this system by first marking the weight
on gold and silver nuggets so that it
would no longer be necessary to re-
weigh them every time they were to be
used for purposes of exchange or trade.
Then came the introduction of gold, sill
yer and copper nuggets of graded uni
form sizes and value. The next step
was the moulding and stamping Of discs
made from the precious metals,
Some of these first coins were enor-
nous, the idea apparently being to dis
courage the greedy from attempting to
accumulate and carry around too many
of them. There were copper coins as
| large as dinner plates. While the idea
was based on excellent motives, 1t had
| to give way before the demand for
smaller and more convenient forms OF
currency and the giant pennies soon
dwindled In size to meet the popular
demand.
The earliest trace of the use of gold
as money is to be found in the pictures
of the ancient Egyptians weighing in
scales heaps of rings of gold and sill
yer. There is no actual record, how
ever. that these rings were what may
be termed coins with fixed value.
Iron, judging from the statement OF
Aristotle, was once extensively EN-
ployed as currency. Lead has also
served as money. In fact 1t still does
SO in Burmah
Copper has been more widely en-
1Ji,oyed as money than either of the two
last mentioned metals. The early He
brew coins were chiefly composed Of
it, while down to 26S B. @. the sole Ro
man coinage was an alloy Of copper.
Tin money was once used In England
probably on account of the rich til
mines of Cornwall. Early English coin
ages contained much of this tin money
principally in the form of farth1ng
and halfpence.
Silver formed the basis for the earl
Greek coins and was introduced L
Rome in 269 B. G. Medieval none
was principally composed of silver.
The only other metals for money ar
platinum and nickel. The former wa
coined for short time by the Russia
government, and then given up as III
suitable. The latter is used as an a

Light for the Barn.


Light is one of the great sanitary
conditions which promote vigorous
health. If the germs of tuberculosis
are exposed to the sun short time
their vitality is destroyed, but their
injecting power can be preserved for
several months if kept in a dark recep-
tacle.
The State veterinarians who inspect
dairy accommodations now recommend
plenty of light, and the new dairy
barns are featured with an increased
number of windows. If possible the
windows of a dairy barn should be so
placed as to cause the sun at some
portion of the day to shine on all parts
of the floor, as the rays will search for
disease microbes and destroy them.
Sunlight acts as a powerful disinfect-
ant and nothing is cheaper nor more
effective in preventing disease than
sunlight.
Dark, underground stables are now
condemned as insanitary and disease
breeding. Dark stables are often also
damp, and present especially favorable
conditions for the evolution and propa
CATION of tuberculosis. Cattle on the
plains. which live only under the shell
ter of the armament, are immune tt
tuberculosis and many other diseases
and barns for housing live stock should
be constructed with plenty of windows
to promote the sanitary condition o
their occupants.-Goodall' Farmer.
