 â- iVP I â- 1 FOE THE FAfiMEE. About Strio« Feedins. Ae first thins a fanner ahoold eonnd tt i^ to have hea^|)|f Jis0i» and iac wrd w r i^ â- D a^u^ tBia he imixat provide a variaty •f food, and give them comfMEtable qiiar- tan. My piga were fed, fawt.Kiiiter,. •om, roots, wheat middlings and bnek- wkeat bran. This winter they ate fed ihb same, with the addii ion of raw apples, •t which I purchased eight hundred oosh- ^S« mostly for the pigs. Warm sheds, «r lather pens' are constmcteo in a sunny aomer of the fields adjoining the buildings Usd here the pigs are being wintered, in fcta of a dozen or less in each. They have |ilenty of room in which to stir i^nt and are fed in a spot where the cold winds do not reach them. One. itiiitfol •aase of disease with pigs is, trxpoeure to fk aold wind when just out of a hot nest where, perhaps, they have been piled •pen each other The sudden change of temperature may be as great as twenty or thirty degrees, enough, anyway, to saose colds, which may asBume the form of pleur'sy, quinsy, ii flammaticn of the lungs or botrels. Sleeping under the akraw stack, and feeding L-n the open ground in a raking wind, lay the founda- tion for many diseases. If the farmer has made no provision for feeding his hogs, other than com, let him give them ^over hay. This may cau^e the exclus- ive corn feeder to smile, but he should remember that this is not only a change of food, but that clover contains the very alemeuts the corn lacks. If hia hcgs have been so pampered that they lave ao appetitd for such food, then get a breed which has, and let "ear'y maturity" mean, with him, a healthy body, ready to slaughter. I care not whether the pig weighs one hundred, two hundred, or three hundred pounds, do long as this weight has been made at a profit. Good appetites are the result cf good bodies and good bodies cacnot be made without a variety of focd. With good appetites and strong digestion, coai se and cheap foods can be utilized, and herein is th^ best basis Jot profit. Let com ccnae in as an aid in 'fatfening swine, but net as the all in all in pig- feeding. ?.i kr»;' Jr 'ifc^ f' llore Brain-Power on the Farm. About the best use afsamer canmalse of himselt is, to devote the prts nt long winter evenings to an increeae of his mental activity. Farms differ in their productiveness, mainly according to the amount of intelligence that is brought to tiieir cultivation. Brain-power may be increased by a thorcugh Iruowledge of the present condition of thafaim, and its worth as a machine for making money. What crops have paid, and Trhf^t have been raised and sold at less Wh*t per Cent. b£s it paid on the capital invcEtud In the case of the ffain, Tvhat secured it Was it the manure applied, or the fje- t^uent tillage, or the extra aniount of rainfall ' l;i case of loss, was it tte want of fertiiizsrs, ^as the crop choked by weeds, or was the seed poor, and the crop dam?ged by late planting This ac- counting for faiiures is as profitable hs bragijing over big cropn, -wiiiicnt making any record of the process of obtaining them. Brain power may ha increased by planning improveiren^s. There may be several acres of peat-swamp or bog mead- ow, producing only brush and bog hay, hardly worth cutting There is a good outlet, and it can be drained three feet » more deep. Cipher out the coat of drainage, and of making itprodnce three tons of clover or Timothy to- the sere. Would not the sight of the waving heads of the grass be more pleasing than the eat-tails, flags, and skunk- cabbages, that now waste their sweetness upon the desert air? There may be an acre of â- wale, underlaid with hard-pan, over which ferns, weeds, and aquatic grasses run riot during the whole summer. Is it not time the bottom was knocked out of ifc, by tiles laid three or four feet in the ground, and the superfluous water com- pelled to go out through these instead of cteeping lazily over th« surface 1 It can be made the best grass land on the farm. Why not make it so, and handle the dol- lars that come from maximum crops Brain power can be increased by reading and digesting the instructive contents of agricultural papers. Profitable Feedins of Cows. Where milk is sold at high prices near •ities, it may piy a dairyman to overfeed Ms e3ws with brewer's grains and articles ef the kind, to stimulate milk produc- tion, without regard to their health bat for the general farmer, it is important not only to have a good cow, but to ke^p her in health for a number of years. At pr«B8nt prices of dairy products, I do not see what profit the ordinary farmer can â- lake without, by close man^ement, he •an turn every function of his cow to ac- eount. First, of course, in import^ce is her milk production, but of almost equal value are her calves for veal or to xsise, and finally her carcass for beef when her inilking days are over. While admitting that the excesaive milk or but- ter production of individuals may be so profitable, that the other elements above named may be dismissed as of relatively little importance, I feel called on to lay down as a proposition, the truth of which extensive observation and the expenanca •f many years devoted to the breeding of Itnimals of various kinds has convinced â- i9. To wit excessive or abnormal de- irdopment in any one direction, destroys Ihe balance of the system, and unless kept within proper bonods, results in •rate disease or oonstiti^onal deteriorar tion.

Watemudomi We ate the last of onr waiernMrlons December the 8tb, a large one, a ^e- soenduit from seed bronghs from Yir- ginia, a dczen yean ago or more. This fruit:, as usually managed, lasts only three or four weeks in the Northern Statea The sesson may be prolonged through October and November with a little pains taking. Specimens for late use should be picked about a week before they are in their best eating condition, carefully handled, and placed in a cool, dry room, where there will be no danger of frost. By the last of October they should be packed in dry s^wdast, clean dr? hay, or cut straw, kept in a dry room and used as wanted. The old-fashioned way of keeping crook-neck tqnashrs, hanging up in the kitchen by a loop of woolen list- ing, is still in use, and is effective when the room is safe fr- m frost. When the coal -fire is not etflered to go out, they keep well through the winter. The Bub- bards and Marbleheads are good keepers under similar conditions. Where there are closets against the chimney, these and o.her hard shelled e quashes, heep well. The great seciet of success is very careful handling. As a table vegetable, and in pies, these winter squaihes are hard to beat. BfTBKBSTIMe ItEttS. How Many Acres in this Field It one asks how m»ny acres there are in any of our fields, nine out cf ten of us will say '"Oh, about â€" acres." Tnii guebsiwork is one of the serious defects in our practice wa guess too much, L'.it us be more accurate atd know each month just wheie we stand. We can not tell juot how much we have gained or lost bj a crop, unless we knw how much land i' has occupied. If it has occupied "abuut ' so much land, then we do not really know anything about it. To measure fields v.ifc.i fttcsigh'i sides and quare cor- ners is an e».iy matter ;the lenijth multi- plied by the brf'adth will give the area.

The other two guides immediately followed bis example and beckoned to us v/ith excited ji'esticulations to behave m a {similarly foolish manner. Thereupon we, too, eat down, and in- quired what the purport of this perform- ance might be. It turned out that there was a very little chamois about half a mile ofl" Knowing that it wruld be impos- sible to induce the guides to move on till the animal had disappeared, we seized the opportunity of taking an early breakfast. The guides ma--.riwhile wriggled about on their stomachs, with eyes starting out of their heads, possessed by an extraordinary desire to miss no single iuovement of the object of their attention. "See, it moves," said Franz in a whisper," Qimmel it is feeding," said Burgener. ' 'It must be the same that John saw three weeks ago." "Ach no, that was but a little one" (no true chamois hunter will ever allow that a brother sportsman can possibly have set eyes on a larger animal than himself). "Truly it is fine." •'Thunderweather 1 it moves its head." In their excitement I regretted that I could not share, not being well versed in hunting craft my own experience of sport in the Alps being limited to missing one marmot that was sitting on a road licking its paws. In due course the chamois walked away. Appar- ently much relieved by there being no further necessity /o continue in former uncomfortable attitudes, the guides aat up and fell to a warm discussion as to the size of the animil.â€" [A.bove the Snow Line, Clinton Dent.

Escapes of political and other convicts from Western Siberia are more frequent than ia generally supposed, but Irom E^s^ern Siberia, though otfcen attempted, they seldom succeed. Save for convicts under entence of penal servitude and acuallt imprisoned it is easy to elude the vigi'arce of the police and get a-way from a convict vil'pge or sett lenient, but it is almost impossible to get out of the coun- try. The immense distances to be tra- verped, the terrible climate, lack of money, the absO'Ute necessity of keeping to the highroads "prove, except in a very few instances, insuperable obstacles to final BUCccES. In order to be really free^ moreover, it is imperalive for a fugitive not alonfl to pass the fron'^ier cf European Russia, but to reach some country where he rnns no lisk of falling into the clu'-ch- CB of the imperial police. Even in Ger- many he is liable to be recaptured, and is really safe only in England, France, or Switzerland. Hence, to make good a flight from Eastern {Siberia requires a conjuncture of so many favorable and nearly imp issible circumstances as to render a complete esope a rare and re- markable event.

The police of Russia have receivedsorae startling information about the doings and designs of the Nihilists. It is said thai the Nihilists are now engaged in a con- spiracy to murder certain cfficials, who have incurred the hatred of the order, by means of poison. In the effort to thwart the conspiracy a circular has been sent te all th« principal officials in the empire warning them against the employment ef new servants who are not strongly voadk- ed for, and cautioning tfiem aeainst the acceptance of food or drink from any one not krio ffn to be trusty. Ever since last September numerou defalcations and embezzlements by minor t flicials connected with the treasuries ef Russian cities have come to light. The thieves have invariably proved to have been connected with the Nihilist organ- ization and little or none of the stolen money has been recovered. It is fesj^d th^ the Nihilists have now obtained BDffioient funds to o^ranizs a well-planaed attempt upon the life of the Czar There is no longer any doubt that the attempt to wreck the specfal train on the Gatschina Railway, which was convejing the Czar to St Petersburg, was a deliber- ate^attempt upon the life of the sov- ereign, and the body of the sentinel found by the side of the railway just where the tram was expected to leave the track fur- nished ample proof of the n^altgnity of the aMassms.
