Wlmt Can Ho Done. Last year Dairy Commissioner Brown, of New York, at a dairy meeting said: "We aro keeping on twenty acres seven teen cows, four horses, hogs nnd chick ens, All tlm fodder we use for that stock we raise on twenty acres. We keep Jersey cows that average 800 pounds of butter u year per cow nud get about thirty cents per pound for the but ter, or about ninety dollars per cow, After deducting all expenses there wns a net profit of tifty-sU dollars per head. We me using ensilage, and this is our nocond year. We make butter at a profit of sixteen cents a pound. "We feed ensilage summeriuul winter, I do not know of any other menus by which wo could keep that number of stock on tho land, except with a silo. We feed boiuo gruln. The past winter we fed three pounds of liny nt noon, twenty pounds night nnd morning of en silage, and three pounds of clover hay at night. Wo fed seven or eight pounds of grain with the ensilage twice a day. We cut our corn for the ensilage, and never put it in whole. We use the southern corn, and find the grain eveuly distrib uted in the ensilage." EQG3 IN WINTER. l'ni-,tM Ki..lliig- null IMnintifunmiit of I'uultry In Cold Wnullinr, A floiiifoi-uhlii poultry house can lie cheaply and tupeiliUoiiHly uiiulu In the corner of n burn, shed or imy outbuild In. It should bn cheerfully lighted and face the south or went If Convenient, Tarred felt paper makes a good lining and In olinoxioiin to verniln. The house should Imi divided into peim, lurgu enough to hold twenty fowls nud no morn. J'owla do InitttT In small colonies. The laying ntock munt not be crowded, or tlmy will not bn layers long, The tm peraturii In the coldest weather ahould bo high enough to knep the wnter from frooxliig-nt any rntn, warm enough to prevent tlm coiulm of the layers from fi-nedng. A wooden floor la better than miy other kind. In the cold weather the best em-then floors will get damp mid keep so, and damp i dinoiuwi and death to Hiultry. The Ixint roost Ual by 4-Inch srnnt llug, put bruail.iiilii over two 12 Ineli boards, forming a platform to catch the droppings, which as iimnure la worth aeveuty-flvo conu to one dollar per bar rel. Heavy fowl should not have to Jump morn than eighteen itiolma. Each pen should contain a duat hittli, no that tlm fowls can roll in tlm dry dust and keep down lice. A SUlllll box to bold broken oyster shells, old mortar, grnvel, crockery broken Into aiuall pieces, etc. Homo of tlmnn substances are absolutely nownHiiry to furnish grit to grind up the food. They are the lien's tetli. A cer tain amount goes to furnish lime for tho rgg shell, hut much of tlm Hum for this purpose cnu lie given in the ahapo of prus-r fiMsl. The hen should be kept in constant activity. A lacy ben Is never a laying oun. Cut straw, hay, chaff or dry leaves ahould be m utt.-reil Ills-rally on tlio floor of narli compiiriiueut, ami III this nil grain fed should bo thrown, so that thu liens will Ihj kept scratching for it. A Cabbage nu.-qn-iided from tlm roof or Ceil ing high etioiiLi'h to inakn the hens jump at it Is n capital way of keeping them busy Occasiuiially siilistitum a piece of cow'b liver, lights or any tough sort of meat for the cabbage, lu very Cold weather tlm chill should Ihj taken oil the water for drink. Laying fowls require plenty of fresh w.tier, hence tlm iuijmrtaiiiit of having the hiime warm i-nougli to prevent water freezing. Take nwny alt the male birds from tlm laying hens. The cock bird is a iiuimiiich in the pen of layers. He not only miiiiHpiiliz.-s the m-ml of tint food, but teaches the hens to break eggs, und so learn to eat tin In. Be.tides, the stimulating diet is too fattening for bun, nnd will ruin liiiu as a luei-der. In the cold weather of winter a warm meal lu thu morning is necessary to start and keep up a steady supply of eggs. A gissl plan is to throw ull tlio waittti of the kitchen, in tlio shape of meat scraps, pieces of bread, uneaten vegetable, etc., into a pot; heat up in the utiiruiiig till nearly boiling, and then mix bran, provender, shorts, or whatever is most abundant or cheap on the farm, Into thu hot mess, dustingii a aiuall quantity of red pcpjicr before mix ing. Let the mixture stand for a few minutes until the menl in nearly cooked; then feed in a clean trough, with laths over it to keep th hens from jumping In mid fouling or wasting the feed in their eager anxiety. Feed only enough of tins soft stuff to barely satisfy, iiuver enough to gorge. When a lieu has bad R ) much food that she will go into a co: .i.r nud mope she has had loo much, mi 1 if tho over feeding is continued will soon cease to lay. The laying hens are the iictive ones. If food is given at noon It ahould tie oats, und scattered among the litter on the floor. This uioul should be light. The last food in the afternoon should be generous. Bach ben siioul.l bo sent to roost with a full crop to carry her over all the night. Green food iu tho shape of vegetables, usually grown on every farm, will lie relished by tho layers. Cabbages, turnips, carrots are generally the most convenient. Small potatoes boiled and mixed w ith provender or bran Is a good change for the morning meal. Some of tho a hove named vegetables should always bo in the pens of the lay ers. Thero is no danger of thuir eating too much. Red clover hay steamed, eliopiied and mixed witli bran nud given while hot is one of the healthiest foods for the morning meal. Meat in some shape must bo given nt least twice a week, to furnish blood making material. Ileus fed on meat lay well, If given no meat the hens will eat their eggs and pick feathers from one another. Iu oold weather warm tho grain feed. Wlmt would bo generous and stimu lating diet for Leghorns, Minurcas and others of tho Spanish family would be too fattening for Plymouth Rocks or Urobilins, As beforo stated, give enough to keep tho hens active. When meat ia given it is not necessary to give so much grain. For instance, if meat is fed at uoou it will be only necessary to scatter a few haudfuls of oats iu each pen to keep the inmates at work. When a hon becomes too fat she will lay soft shelled eggs, W here plenty of moat is to be had ns one of the cheapest articles of food a greater quantity of onts may be given. Wheat is the best nil round food. Tho waste of the farm iu conjunction with meat nnd the hot morning meal and ex ercise will bring plenty of eggs. Deyond question the best all round fowl for the farmer is the Plymouth Rock. The two best breeds are the Ply mouth Rock and tho White Leghorn, for the reason, ns the tables published in a preceding part of tho report proves, that the Plymouth Rocks put on flesh more rapidly, and the White Leghorn lays more eggs tliiiu any oilier of the standard breeds. Closely following come the Wynndottes ns an early llesli pro ducer and layer. Then follow the Brah man, but they lire i lower in develop ment. Another ndvnnt:rro in keeping Plymouth Rocks and Legliorus is iliac while the Plymouth Kick hens are hatohing chickens, nfier laying all win ter, the Leghorns (bum j nimsitters) will go on laying, mid pay tho expense in curred while i he other breed is sitting.

Klamath County Star: The fact that the Oregon farmer? want more land than I hey need, is shown by the fact that ibey take more land then they can use. About every agricultural home In Ore gon is haunted by the spirit that yearns to make final proof in support of its claim upon tho earth. We can point to lots of farmers who raise ginin of one lourtli of their bind and ground squirrels on the other Ibree-fourths. "Never bother with more then you need," is true wisdom, nnd the ground squirrels luive more of the enpneitv to mitke due use of it than tho ground owners. CONVICT 1.AIIOK, Kiiitene Guard: Tho coutrnctint! of prison labor is wionx in principal, and should be abrogated by tho state. Labor that is held in servitude should not be allow ed to compete with that of freo men. While il is necessury that confined criminals should have employ ment it should be regulated so that it would not conflict with other men. In some states prisoners are woiked on public roads, and our British Columbia friends furnish nn illustration of what enn be done by this churn of labor. Fine durable roads have been built at little expense to the dominion, In many portions of Oreiron gravel is remote or not obtainable for roads, yet there are few places where stone cannot be se cured. A rock crustier would mnke it the best material possible for use on our roads.
