Prcoorving eggs for winter uso is not difficult, but caro is required. Eggs from hens not in company with males will keep three iimcs as long as those containing tho gorms of chicks. Keep tho eggn on raekb in n cool placo, and turn them half over twico a wcok. Oil is cheaper than machiuory, so uso it freely on all tho working parts I of tho mowers and reapers. Lumber is also cheaper, and when not in use evory pieco should bo carefully housed, as well as all tho tools used about tho farm. Tools, carts and ma chit'cs rust out much fastoi than they will wear out. In tho dairy contest at tho Minne The sweet and sour apple question is sure to be discussed at this season. A recent writer remarks that sweet apples aro generally considered much more valuable for fading than sour, but thero i3 less diuerence than many suppose. If well ripened oven sour apples contain a good deal of sweet, which is to the taste overcome by a flight disproportion of acid. Those who have fed sour ripe apples find them nearly or quito as nutritive as sweet ones. They should not, how ever, bo given lo hogs which are fed corn in the car, as it will mako the pigs' teeth sore. Wolves are doing great damage in j Northern Montana by destroying stock. In Choteau Couuty Charles Adams was compelled to fly from tho beasts tho other night, whon they de stroyed eighty of his thorough-bred buckw. Onft hnndrtnl and fiftv sheen wero killed in 0110 llock"and also thirty colts belonging to another ranchman. The wolves also attack travelers. If cows arc fed a liberal ration of palatable, nutritious ground feed night and morning they require no driving. No dog or boy is necessary to chase tho fields over to persuade them, but about milking time thoy aro ready to walk from pasture to barn quieth-, and tho pails will bo fuller as there has been no excitement. Keep cows quiet and thoy give hotter returns. Thus si saving of labor and patience pays in pat feu grain fed. Wi'M it pay t- e-t vm. forage for 6rbG'b?
