There is probably no other inter est on the farm so generally neg lected as that of poultry: It is a common phrase among farmers that "chickens can scratch for a living," and this comprises about all the care they receive. Sum mer or winter, rain or sunshine, cold or warm, in all kinds of weather they are left to take care of themselves, gaining a precari ous living, roosting on trees, fences, the mangers or racks in the stable ; they are merely suf. fered as a nuisance, rather than cared for as they should be. In our cold winter months, for want of proper shelter, combs and wat tles are frozen, and feet are often lost from the effects of the ex treme cold. If we were to accuse our farmer friends of cruelty, they would open their eyes in innocent surprise. But is it not downright cruelty to allow your fowls to go through our long cold winters without proper care or shelter ? How much do the poor birds suf fer before they. lose combs, wat ties and feet ? The trouble is not that any are intentionally guilty of cruelty. But the old "scratch for themselves" adage has been so long and persistently taught that men believe in it and act ac cordingly. The care of the fowls is a thing never thought of, and the idea of providing comfortable quarters for them is unheard of. Then we hear the complaint, "we get no eggs." "Here are one hun dred hens eating more than they are worth, and we do not get eggs enough to keep us going at the house." This may be all true, but think for a moment of the care you have given them. They are simply paying you in your own coin, and even then arc no doubt doing better by far than you have done by them. Perhaps fowls in the farm-yard suffer more for want of pure water in winter than from any other cause. In the summer they usually get plenty and do well enough, but in our cold climate, wvhen springs and brooks are frozen solid. when tanks and swill pails are no longer available, then their daily allowance is entirely cut off, and often for w eeks, and even months, they do not get a drop of water. They eat snow when it is to be had, and they could do nothing worse, for this has the singular quality of making them poor, and they should never be aiiowed-itv eat it. If they are supplied with water, they will not eat snow. This treatment, with very little variation and a few exceptions, is the rule amongr farmers. The re sult is that millions of fbowls die annually of that scourge of poul-' try-the cholera. 'Years ago'the cholera was dreaded -as a -most fearful plague among the human family. Towns and cities were de vastated by its ravages ; but of late years, by cleaning out the cesspools of filth in the cities, and by the proper measures, it has lost its terrors. Here lies the great remedy for chicken cholera-cleanliness and proper care. This will do more to rid the country of this plague than all the patent nostrums in exis tence. With a very little outlay of money and time you can build a good comfortable house for your fowls. Let it face the south, with windows to give light and warmth when the sun shine.s. Spend an hour each day in feeding, water ing and caring for your fowls. Re move all the droppings every day or two, preserving them carefully in aheap ; your American guano will repay you for all the care and feed you give your fowls. Keep your house clean and well ven tilated and you will have a plenti ~ ~f ~r~rtc in wint~r~RI KEEP AN ACCOUNT. It is a very good plan for far mers to keep a strict account of their labor. We know very well that tho majority -of people dis ike to be faced down by columns of figures, when the sum total shows a decided balance against them; but if accounts are kept, the result will be that greater economy will be practiced in the long run, and that efforts will be made on every hand to make the balance favorable. This is the time of the year to begin. Thefrst thing you ought to do is to mL.ke an inventory of everything you have. Make it carefully and valu. all your property. Let it include your acres, hcuses, utensils, stock, machinery of every description, as well as notes and all other monetary matters. If there are any incumbrances on your proper ty, put them down. Then make up your estimate of operations for the coming year, and start out with the determination to live up to it. As the year progresses set down all your sales and purchases, of every description ; don't let a cent of expense or income escape. Your family expenses should have a separate place in the book, so that they may be footed into the general result at the close of the year, and still be so distinct as to show for themselves what it costs to clothe yourself, wife and chil dren, and to afford them amuse ments and general pleasures. You will find, in keeping your account of income, that it is a good plan to run each field separate, so that you can, at the close, see at a glance what your profit or loss has been on each. Keep dates of times when fields were plowed, how they were cultivated, and what the labor on each has cost. This *ill teach the farmer in a short time which crops are most profit able. In stock, keep a particular record of each animal, with pedi gree, birth and other remarks of interest. Keep, as wvell, a general diary of events on the farm for fu ture reference. You will find plenty of time in wbich to attend to these thiings, Keeping an account will take but a few minutes each day, and when you have once begun, you will be surprised to see how -easily it can be done. There is one great point to be kept in view always, and that is, to never run in debt. Shun debt as you would the fire. Strive to livo within your means, and yo,~u will have a net result when yoi balance your books at the ldse of' the year that will surprise and make you glad. [Prairie Farmer. BUDDING RoSES.-This is a sim ple process by which amateur cul tivators can increase their stock. A sar.p penknife can do duty for budding knife, and the handle of toothbrush, -if groundr down smooth, will answer for a spund o aid in lifting the bark. From the last of June to the last of August is the best time for this process, as the bark can then be more easily raised from the wood. Take a smooth stalk and make a horizontal cut across the bark, throsh to the wood, buaan&t into it. From the centre of this -cross-cut make another cut straight down the stem, an inch or more in length. These two outs will resemble a T. Slice off1 the bud you desire to propagate with one cut of the pernknife, cut ting it close to the main stalk. N~ow with the edge of the spud i turn back the bark on each side of the straight cut and insert the bd on the wood of the branch to be budded, fitting it tightly to the crossed cut. With a bit of4 soft yarn bind down the bark,1 eaving the point of the bud ex posed. A handful of dampened moss must then be bound round the stem, taking care to leave the I tiny point of the bud exposed to z the air. In six weeks the rap pings may be removed but all other shoots must be kept from growing n the budded branch. By this. means a rose bush can be made to bear a half dozen different colored roses.~---Ex.

The Commissioner of Agriculture, in hi report for the year 1875, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the generi idalteration of all malt liquors.

How muclh mor n this country, where there are no laws o he subject, and no officer to carefully ans lyze the prcoducts of the brewery ? Som fears ago, Professor Mapes, of New Yori nalyzed the beer from a dozen differet breweries, and all were found ad-ulterate with noxious substances. It is said that th ;ale of drugs to brewers is a profitable pi f the trade. This is perfectly infamiout Docculus indicus, (fish-berry,) nux vomnict ~doruton, from which strychnine is o1. rained,) are some of the delectobe substance; round in beer! These are potent poisomt AI( the brewer found using :hem shou)ld h 3roned at once in one of his own vat. rhe British Parliament passed a law tc pe rent this nefarious business. The followini is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of o lealer in drugs, or chemist, or any othe erson, shall sell or deliver to any license< rewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowins them to be such, or shall sell or deliver ti my person on account of,or in trust for. an; nch brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquo :alled by the name of or sold for coloring rom whatever material the same may b nade; or any material or preparation othe :han unground brown malt, for the, darken 'ug the color of worts beer, or any molasses ritriol, honey, quassia, coccolas indicus frains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium ir any extract or preparation of molasses, o my article or preparation to be used in wart >eer for or as a substitute for malt or hops mud if any druggist shall offend in any of thesi >articulars, such preparation, &c., shall be ~orfeited, and may be seized by any officer o xcise, and the person so offending shall for eit five hundred pounds.'
