A Good Idea for a Hoist for a Barn-The Treatment that Should be Given to Fowls-Receipt for De stroying th Weevh. The longer turnips and enn remain out without cabbages actuallv freezing, the better they are for eat ing purposes and the better they will keep through th'3 winter. Economy is certainly wealth in the feeding of farm horses, and yet it does not necessarily mean stinting or cut ting off of rations. Give this matter a thorough investigation, and see if there is not more iu it than a taper ticial glance would indicate. Corn meal in small quantities, lin seed meal in small quantities, and I liberal quantity of good bran meal with the roughness, will make an ad mirable winter feed for milch cows, and if given liberally, with good she! ter, it is possible to secure a good How of milk during llie winter; provided, of course, that you have a good breed of cows, that this feed can be given to ouring the winter. By pouring boiling water over any kind of grain, and allowing the grain to remain twenty-four hours, it will swell and prove an acceptable change to the fowls. The soaked grain un dergoes a partial chemical change, contains a slightly larger portion of sugar, and is really more digestible. Nothing is added to the grain by soak ing it, bat it will be more readily eaten for some time than dry grain, though the biris will return to dry grain as a preference if fed too long on that which is soaked. A correspondent of the New Eng land Farmer gives the following direc tions for destroying the potato weevil : Take an ordinary nianuie hod, one that is broad and light is to be pre ferred, and grasping it by the hole for the left hand near the mouth of the hod, with a brotid and limber broom carried wfth the right hand, proceed through the field, placing the hod against vines infested with grubs and gently beating or sweeping, them over the edge of the hod and into it with the broom. In this way a great majerity of all the grubs in a small potato patch may be gathered in a short time and destroyed. This may be of service, especially in eases where Ihere are objections to the use of pois ons offered in the markets. A little practice will enable a person to do ex ecution with the above implements with considerable dispatch. Straw as a material for stock shel ters have lavoraiile qualities: it is a very poor conductor of heat, hence it makes a warm shelter. It costs little beiug produced in abuudance on a 1 large majority of farms; and its em- i plovanent lor this purpore does not require special skill beyond the farm er. But it is uot us economical as many suppose. It is as necessary that the top ef the shelter be water tight as that the sides be wind tight even more important. A straw roof can be kept lain and snow proof only by frequent repairings. Straw is not a durable material and a straw shelter ia not long-lived. In many cases where straw shelters are now used, a proper computation would show luni ber to be more economical ; and ss it is usually cheaper to paint lumber than not to do bo, the cheape-t shel ter would be a neat, substantial paint e one. One of my neighbors bad a fine pen ot iowis ; i. ,ui Had them conhiied in a small, dark house, with no run at tached. and I suppose all the corn they could eat, as they were very fat when 1 purchased them. My neigh bor -aid he was sick and tired if them no ili mam! for eggs and no eggs could never make a living raising lsn- cy lowls. I was not suitably fixed for taking another breed, but as I got them lor $1 each, about one-tenlh their value, I bought them and took them home, intending to do the best possible by them, considering the con veniences at band Took two orders for eggl before driving home. I placed them in a small hoiue with a 16xlb foot run. As I said before thev were very fat. My first move was to see that they hail plenty of exercise, and thereby reduce them in flesh. I di vided a portion of their run off and put in about one foot of straw, and they had to scrateh for a living. It was not very long until they were shelling out eggs to their full capacity. Poultry Ki i per. A good idea for a hoist for a barn is to erect two upright posu six inches square and firmly fastened in the up per part of the building, one on either JJ. IA . t. .-I ... me ui me oaicnway. strong iron or wooden boxes attached to these posts support the journal of a round shaft one foot in diameter, upon which is a wooden wheel four to six feet in diam eter. The lamer size eives inrr J power, but for ordinary lifting four feet is large euouarh. The wheel la made of eight segments cut from two inch plank, each one being a quarter of a circle. They are put together with spikes or bolts in a manner to "break joinK" Before being fastened together the segments are notched to receive the ends of the four arms, which are also made of two-inch plank, halved together at the center of the wheel. The short end of the shaft, as far as the wheel goes on, is shaped to fit the square hole in the center of the wheel. Long iron spikes are driven and a gr ove turned in the onter jwriphery of the wheel to keep the rope from slipping ff. The hoist rope is firmly atUch.d to tin shaft upon which it is coiled by the revolution of the wheel REP0, : .'..I'l l' It .1. nSXa ...I,:, fl Bin ' uu" ": "''. ..7. .-. .' l,u"W cry nnnw sane, tnJ port ili-I.-il C.
