It is sometime curious thai it is the change trom eoltl to warm that is most dreaded I All grain-fed stock got "off their feed," us it is called at such times, unless great ci.ro is taken to diminish the ration. The I natural instinct of a fattening animal I will not prevent it from eating too much and injuring its digestion. One reason, perhaps, is that alter a very cold skII animal beCOTM extremely tliirsty, and when the wanner weather comes they i ore tempted to drink more than ia good for them, With moderately warm math I er in winter the water drunk must be i nearly tot cold, as it is aiso in early spring. It is verv possible the tilling up f with cold water that causes the lassitude ! felt by men and the brute creation in early spring. The cold drink chills the digestive organs, and with those inactive there is nothing to maintain animal heat, and the entire isly becomes chilled, cold . and uniomfortable. tlingerbn-ad : One cup of molasses one-half cup of hn.w n ugar, one-fourth 0f , up of butter, one cup of sonr milk one egg, one icasiHniui eo.ii ot cn-om tartar, soda, gnmnd ginger mid cinna mon, flour enough to make a medium batter, Hv far the irreater nurt of imiitn- ,1...

Hut where do they oil come from! U i question that is frequently tukid. The majority of then are manufacturi-d in small bakeries around town, but tiiere are several concorns, each of which ij kept going day and night, and produce from l.VIMM) to 2.1.000 pies of all si, daily every day of the week, mounting into millions in the course of a year. A reporter visited one of these itnmensi pie factories, it is located on Sullivan street not a very desirable locality, u would seem, but the oterior wasatnett as a pin. It was surprising to see how every branch of the business was conducted' Everything moved along wl li really au tomutic precision. The entire building is divided into sep arate depeittnente. In one department the manufacture of mincemeat is carried on by machinery! in another the fruit i, prepared, w hile in a third the immense quantity of dough that is used is made. Tho fruit is peeled by inocliinery and cut by hand. In tho room where the pies are mad? thero are several long tables ut which ssv. era I men stand. The dough is brought to them In hup buckets holding alsiut thirty pounds. A lump is then put on the table and rolled out, cut in small squares and laid on tin plates. Theso plates ure then handed along to a man who stands ready, with knife In hand, to shave oft the endsoftlie dough which hang over tho outside ol the plates. The plates are then placed in rows in a wooden tray and taken lo the fruit coun ter to receive their "inside. " The uien at the fruit counter hold a large wooden spoon in t heir baud, and as the trayONM before them they supply each pan liber ally with fruit or sauce, as the case mar be. Tho plates are then replaced on the trays and carried to another table, where they receive the top crust, after which they are put on an elevator and sent to the cellar, where they are baked. There are a half score of ovens in this place, each of w hich will hold 400 four cent pies, or 120 fourteen cent pies. The lour cent pies ure retailed at live ceuti and the fourteen cent article sells for twenty cents. It requires two men to run an oren; one man stands ut the door of the oren and directs his partner where to put the next consignment. The man w ho places the pies in the oven holds in his hawk I long, shovel like arrangement with a handle fifteen or twenty feet long The pios uro put on the shovel in couples and are then put in to bake. This takes twenty minutes, and when finished the hot and juicy dainties are re moved, put in cuses and sent to the wag ons. FOKTY WAGONS HAULINO PIES.

There ore not less than one he dred and ten people employed in the factory They work until i o'clock in tho afternoon, and then leave, only to return at a corresxinditig hour the fol lowing morning. The drivers begin to go out on thou daily rounds at 4:80 o'clock In tho mom ing.'and all return by noon, for there a no sale for pies in the afternoon It re quires thirty-five wagons to supply W company's customers in New York.
