Unlc8B a poultry rnlrrr is willing to pnttho samo amount of intclllgcnco brains ontl Attention into that business that ho would into any otlior business no or sno Had better abandon tho pnmo. For laying licriB cxercieo is necessary and for that reason feeding nt times so as to compel some scratching to procure tho food. Eerclso keeps thorn in hoalth, ana tncy should bo required to work for at loast ono monl each day. It must bo rcmombcrod that feeding chopped onions to tho hens will not only flavor tho epgfl durinir tho feeding, but also tho flesh if fod for some timu and tho fowl is killed during or pooh after tho feeding.

Regarding tho lcst market fowls thoso who purchaso profor thoso that havo a rich yellow skin with yellow lops and therefore poultry growers should en deavor to accommodato thorns but in roalily tho dark logged fowls oro tho host for tho tablo, being finer grained, having a dclicato flosh and thin skin. Wyandotte. Dcspito tho fact that many thoorics havo been advancod and put upon tho public as to tho trno . origin of tho Wy- andotto fowl, no absoluto proof has yet bocn published ns to wboro and how thoy originated. Tho theory most gen erally accepted and tho ono which tho nppoaranco and characteristics of tho brood would seem to confirm, is that which makes thorn tho result of a Ham burg and Asiatic cross. Tho Wyandotte as n brocd shows many of the charac teristics of tho dark Brahma. The sil very hackle, tho wing bar of tho cock and also tho breast for what dark Brahma breeder lias not Btrivoi with tho tendoncy to whito in broast of cock erels? Tho yellow logs and many otlior points in color and form go to provo tho presenco of dark Brahma blood. Thoy rceomblo tho Hamburg in many points of color, in smooth shanks and in comb, although tho latter is greatly modified in sizo, and in plaoo of tho largo spikes of tho Hamburg comb should havo a lovol and ovonly corru gated surfaco and sot closoly on tho head, following tho ontlino of tho head. It is usolcss to go into a detailed descrip tion of tho Wyandotto lion. Tho beau tiful illustrations which, sinco tho great Wyandotto boom havo boon published in tho loading livo stock journals of tho country, havo mado all aiquaintod with what tho perfect Wyandotto should be but alas, not with what it is in its pres ent Btago of dovolopmont. Tho pages of tho standard do not (lcwribo a breed which prosonts moro intricate pointo, and calls for higher skill in tho art of breeding. Taking tho gcnorally accepted theory of tho origin of tho Wyandottcs, it is roadily seen that in tho attempt to pro duco a laced breed from a cross of span gled with a breed noither laced or span gled, a ttvtk requiring no email skill, and ono which will requiro somo years to accomplish, Inn been undertaken. Al ready tlio results of scientific breeding can bo seen in thoir improved appear ance. Thero is moro uniformity in color, combs, etc., and fower feathered legs and singlo combs than fomiorly. Tho ten dency to spangled, instead of laced plumago, is giving way to moro uniform lacing. Tho light-colored birds which wcro at first tolerated on ncount of tho scarcity of tho breed and tho fact that Wyandottcs of almost any shade, sizo and condition wouia uring a lanuious Erico, aro being discarded as tho breed ecomes moro numerous, and greater chances for selection aro given. A medium shado of color should bo tho ono striven for, with medium sized whito coutrcs to broast plumage. In a practical point of view tho Wy andotto stands with tho Plymouth Rock between tho Spanish and Asiatic breeds in a class commonly known an "general purposo fowls." Tho question, which of theso two birds is entitled to tho cham pionship in this class, is ono hard to answer, a both possess such high merits both as market fowls, epg-producew, and as Bitters and mothers, that it is hard for the unprejudiced mind to givo tho palm to either. Following closely upon tho first great Wyandotte "boom," the new whito Wyandotte has taken a jump into pop ular favor never before parol led. Tho laced Wyandotte was long before tho public, bat net er before paralleled. Tho lacod Wyandotte .was long before the public, but never became universally popular until alter its admission, to the Standard. But tho White Wyandotte, before being admitted to the Standard, is universally in favor, and the only ob stacle to its wide introduction is the great scarcity of the brocd and the ex treme high price of the .limited pumber now on tlio market. Doubtless this quick jump into favor is owing to tae great popularity of tb lace J breed, and the desire for a breed of Wyiitul mim with all the qnnlitips of the rk 11I-. with till tl mlil.tr, tif tln one i- with tin- ndilitiniiiil oiio o! bleeding true to cili.r.

Black Wynndottos will son be intro duced, nnd probably reciiivo much at tention. Tho only objection to them will bo tlio color, which is not woll adapted to h market fowl.

Tho way to revive a dormant Grango is very simple, nnd freo from difficulties that may not bo easily overcome. All that is required is such determination as must exist ns n preliminary roqui site in any business lwrformanco that has prospect of successful issuo only through suitable means employed to conduct it in proper order. A fow por- sons sufficiently interested and movod by desire nmy moct and resolve that thoy will restore tho privilcdgos lapsed bocauso of neglect; then establish com munication with tho Stato Grange, whereby tho subordinate body may bo put in pososslon of tho nccossary forms, all casj simplo and plain, imposing no hardship upon any otv, and requiring from no ono any labor boyond what is necessary to conduct every organization that imposes upon its mombers duties for which thoy havo moro or less fitness and, most important of nil, desire to per form thorn in such n way as to accom plish best results. There aro scores of dormant Granges that might bo restored by tho effort of n few members, and all tho benefits that accruo to successful organizations would bo at onco within roach. It is not nec essary to enumerate tho advantages to Ix) derived irom combined cnort 01 men and women working toward a common imrnoso. bociety is in itsolf organiza tion, and tho chief good that blossom civ ilized life is dopendent on mutuality of effort und labor. Yot, so far as dormant Grangos nro concerned, thero is no pos sibility of restoration, oxcept through woll-dcfined purposo to which thoso who enter upon tho work must devote enough of effort to mako practical test of possi bilities. Besides, there is no sufficient inducement to orgnuizo oxcept as tho benefits that result through organiza tion are kept in view and adequate means -eraployod to keen them roady for uso.

But tlio oloo oil market tbere now is absolutely flat Butterino makers aro buying nothing, and quotations aro only nominal.

Wo hnvo passed tho twentieth milo stono of our journey ns an organization ; success has como wherov:r tho field has boon well prepared, tho crops carefully tended and tho sheaves safely garnered. Tho great noed of our order now soonis tp bo to let tho world know wo "still live," that wo hnvo corao to stay, and tho Order of Patrons of Husbandry has not only dono moro up to this timo for protecting nnd advancing tho truo in terests of tho farmers of our land than nil other ordors or societies combined, but tlmt it has still greater posibilities for tho future, and is tho ono woll-triod nnd proven plan by which if wo will wo can placo agriculture whoro it of right belongs, in tho front rank, and command for its followers that respect, fairness and equality that belongs to hem by birthright and tho blessings of God hlniBolf. At this writing tho President has not named tho members of tho Inter-Stnto Comnierco Commission. It is to bo hopod that ho will recognize our Order and tho f armors' of our country in np pointing ono representative of our class on tho Commission. Besides Bro. J. J. Woodman, tho names of several other good PatronB aro "at tho front :" and boing urged by thoir many frionds. Among them aro Bro, Leonard Rhono, Master of tho Pennsylvania Stato Grango, Bro. Wm. A. Armstrong, Mas ter Now York State Grange, and Bro. Victor E. Fillet, Past Master Pennsyl vania State Grange. It would thrill tho hearts and ncrvo tho hands of all truo Patrons to hear that oithor of thoso ablo leaders in our causo had received tho appointment. Thoy havo all dono much to bring about this legislation controll ing interstate commorco. It is action wo noed now moro than over boforo. Working Granges nro tho successful ones. Most of us know tho principles of onr Order now full well. Wo havo boon learning then many yonrs, but ''Who learns nnd loams, but acts not what no knows, Is ono who plows and plows, but nover sows." No wonder tho oloo folks aro bring ing all tho prcssuro possible on Congress to head off our Oloomargarino law. Thoy aro being bcaton moro and more al all points. Hero aro two items of many wo might givo to provo this : In Pennsylvania tho Supromo Court has affirmed tho constitutionality of tho Stato law prohibiting the manufacture, salo or keeping for salo of oleomargarine. Tho court holds that tho act was not in conflict with any provision of tho State or Federal Constitution and was entirely within tho limits of legislativo authority in theso wordn, "Tho fact that tho pro hibited substanco may bo harmless as a food makos no differenco with tho enso, for tho salo of a mixture of pnro milk and puro water has been prohibited," and tho constitutionality of that pro hibition has novcr hcon uoubtou. Georgia is coming to tho front in Qrango work. Stato Master Kimbrough and Stato Secretary Taylor havo organ ized and aro pushing a revival. Tho Georgia Farmer is holping; its last issue said : "Tho Stato Grango of Georgia is to-day moro determined to battlo on in tho warfar for the farmers' rights and interests than everl So long as ono of cithor shall last so long havo wo plight ed faith to stay I Conscripted by neces sity, yet volunteers by aim and princi ple, upon neither ol wnlcn tear we tuo noonday sunlight of criticisms."
