the tutor went to the oil-king and made i

war CANKOT FOWLS BE KEPT IN
r LARGE FLOCKS ?
I It is pretty generally conceded that no p
* one is successful who attempts to keep to- e
k gether a large number of fowls, and that b
9 tnose who keep the smallest number togeth- n
- er generally obtain the greatest proportion
- ate number of eggs. And this is, we think, s
J not only true, but easily accounted for. t<
Every one who has kept fowls knows f<
that they are very uncleanly, birds. They n
> even trash themselves in the dirt, and that
- evidently not tor the purpose of cleanliness, n
9 but to rid themselves of vermin. They t<
drefer clean light sand, because if in the
I ran, it is generally warmer, and it is easily
* moved, bat they seem equally to enjoy any r<
5 soft, dry earth, although it may not be
} very sweet and clean. They are notorious- y
>. ly filthy in their coops, roosting under each
* other, taking no pains to avoid the drop- u
f pings, soiling their food, water and nests
* with their droppings, and doing no act ap- A
' parently towards cleanliness. This is more 01
\ manifest in the house where they are con- k
* fined, and where the air should be as pure o
1 as possible. If they are at large and few
> in number, they move around so much that g
1 they cannot sour the ground. They are
J by nature clean, but by habit the reverse, n
and the only way to keep them in the n&t- ti
* oral state, is to give them range enough, so
that they cannot sod their haunts, or else I
1 cleanse their haunts carefully and faithfully n
' every day.
-I We once keni one solitary hen on our
place for several months. She was of the h
r common barn yard breed. We never saw
? a healthier fowl, or whose feathers kept so n
> fresh and perfect, and she was a constant s<
i layer. No care was taken of her, and we ei
k always attribated her thrift to the fact that r<
> she had the whole range of our place for o
exercise and her quarters were always per- w
; fectly clean. a
As soon as your flock becomes large you S
will find them crowding together and al- b
' ways souring their haunts, if there are a F
' sancient number of them to do it. You k
" may do something towards preventing this, ji
L hut you cannot keep very large flocks very u
r clean. p
We have often seen it stated that no more
* than fifty hens should be kept in a hen- ii
house twenty feet by ten. Except with fi
5 constant care and cleaning, that number w
r cannot do very well in a smaller space. U
The size of the flock must always depend
1 upon the extent of the accommodations, ii
r and even then the large flocks cannot be I
' kept so cleanly and healthy as the small b
' ones, and therefore are not in proportion n
so profitable.?Cultivator and Country Gen- d

> The Ramie.?This remarkable plant has fl
1 continued to be this year propagated with J
t great success in Lousisiana, Texas and u
1 Mississippi. Last spring the plants grown
? on a piece of ground in Louisiana were si
1 kept for cleaning by the Roezl machine,
t the result of which we then stated, but as
t the fibre was nof then and thereby made si
perfectly soft and pliable, it was sent by n
> Mr. Bruckner, one of the agents of Mr. g
" Roezl, to Germany, where, by a process
' used there, it has been made so soft, plia- si
' ble and clear of any substance foreign to it a
' as a textile, that we thought, it must surely f<
be silk, until we examined it closely, and
saw that it was the vegetable fibre of ra- n
5 mie.
' Mr. Bruckner tells us that the ramie can a.
' be prepared and made thus fine and alto1
gether silk-like at a cost not to exceed two a
' cents per pound, and then it will be vastly t<
| superior to the linen floss, which sells at a
' from six to eight dollars per pound when tl
1 made into thread, and will certainly be tl
worth, unspun, a dollar a pound.? Weekly IV

> To Clabipy Fat.?In every household, ci
? more or less fat of various kinds will accu"
mulate, which cannot be used in cookery b
> from its being mixed with foreign substan- si
^ ces, as, for instance, the fat after frying
1 sausages, or the fat from mutton. This G
> fat is frequently wasted, or at least conver- h
1 ted into soap grease, by the young housekeeper,
who is ignorant of the fact that by u
a very easy and cheap process it could be C
made nearly as valuable as the best lard. S
i Don't let this material be longer wasted, h
but trv the following plan: "To every
? quart of such fat, peel and slice one good p
sized raw potato; place the fat over the fire
' and put in the potato, and cook until the u
; potato is cooked all up to a scrimp; then b
> remove from the fire, skim out the potato w
and throw it away; let it settle, ana pour h
off" the clear fat, which will be quite as I
' sweet and inodorous as fresh lard, and can ii
1 be used for any purpose that lard may be si
I used." " ii

} How to Make New Rope Pliable.? ^
. Considerable difficulty is sometimes expei
rienced in handling new rope on account of j3
its stiffness. This is especially the case
i when it is wanted for halters and cattle Q
1 ties. Every farmer is aware how inconve.
nient a new, stiff halter is to put on and tie ^
. up a horse with. And new ropes for tying
cattle are freqcntly unsafe, for the reason j
j that are not pliable enough to knot secure- !
B ly. All this can be remedied, and new
rope made as limber and soft at once as ^
after a year's constant use, by simply boil-]ti
P ing it for two hours in water. Then har.g ?
7 it in a warm room, and let it dry out thor3
oughly. It retains its stiffness until dry,
when it becoms perfectly pliable. ^
Destruction of Stumps.?We have J
? heard of two methods for getting rid of j!
stumps, which, as they appear feasible and
8 inexpensive, we hope some reader will
y try, and report upon. Bore with a twoinch
anger to the heart or centre; fill the ?
r cavity thus made with sulphuric acid, or
wit.h rmdfi netroleum. In the first case, 11
P the acid becomes the destructive agent Witty-; :t
~ in a few months; in the latter, when thei ^
I stump becomes saturated, as it will, with
^ the oil, it is fired, and will then burn out to ^
Q the last particle, like a candle.
' > Weeds are God's policemen. They
i' make lazy farmers cultivate the soil, which '
without them, never would be stirred, and F
consequently never produce a crop. A v
good farmer hoes often, weeds or no weeds, s
but a slack fellow never uses the hoe if he
0 can find any excuse to avoid it.
I- 1
For Heaves in Horses.?Take smart ''
o weed, steep it in boiling water till the t
e strength is all out; give one- ^uart every
- day for eight or ten days. Or mix it with f
: bran or shorts. Give him green or cut up
i, feed, wet up with water, during the opera- I
' tion?and it will cure. J

A TOUCHING STOEY. t;
The following affeoting narrative pui

on, as awarningderived fromhis ow

lother s love and counsel.
What agony was on my mother's fac

allowed at a distance. She spoke to m
o more till she reached her own dodr. T
"It is school-time now/' she said. "Gc
ty son, and once more let me beseech yd

"I shan't go to school," said I.
She look astonished cat ay boldness, bu

"One of the two things you most do
Jfred?either to go to school this minute
r I will lock you up in your roots, an
eep you there until you promise implici
beuience to my wished in the future.'
"I dare you to do it/' said I; "you can'
et me up stairs."
"Alfred, choose now," said my mothei

"Nol" I replied, but I quailed beneat
ereye.
"Then follow me," said she, as she graspe

ist then passed the door, and seeing m
lother was pale and almost unable to suf
ort herself, she beckoned him to come in
"Take this boy up stairs and look hiz
i his own room,' said she, and turned o:
*om me. It was a look of agony, mingle
ith intensest love?it was the last unul
irable pang from a heart that was broker
In a moment I found myself a prisone
i my own room. I thought for a momen
would fling myself from the open windos
ut I felt that I was afraid to die. I wa
ot penitent.' At time* my heart was siu
ued, bat my stubbornness rose in an ii
taut, and bade me not yield yet. Th
ale face of my mother haunted me. .

ust at twilight I heard a footstep approac

"What shall I tell mother for you?" eh

"Nothing," I replied.'
"0, Alfred, for my sake and for all on
ikes, say that you are sorry. Let me te
lother yon are sorry. Sho longs to foi
ive you."
I would not answer. I heard her fool
;eps slowly retreating, and again I flan
lyself on the bed to pass a wretched an
ianui ingut.
Another footstep, slower and feebler tha
ly sister's, disturbed me. . i ;
"Alfred, my son, shall I come in ?' sh
sked.
I cannot tell what influence, operatin
t that moment, made me speak advers
) my feelings. The gentle voice of m
lother, that thrilled through me, melte
tie ice from my heart, and I longed t
irow myself upon her neck; but.I did not
ly words gave the lie to my heart, when
nd I was not sorry. .1 heard her wit!
raw. I Heard her groan. I longed t
all her back, but I did not. *
I was awakened from an uneasy slumbe
y hearing my name called loudly, ancl m;

erself upon the bed to rest; and rising t
0 again to me, she was seized with a pa]
itation of the heart, and borne to her room
I cannot tell yon my agony as I looke
pon her?my remorse was tenfold mor
itter from the thought that she neve
ould know it. I believed myself to b

ps. I could not understand her words.
"Mother! mother!" I shrieked, "sa;
nly say that you will forgive me."
She could not say it with her lips, bu
er hand pressed mine. She smiled upo
le, and lifted her thin white hands; sh
lasped my own within them, and cast he
yes upward. She moved her lips in praj
r, and thus she died. I remained sti
neeling beside that dear form till my ger
le sister removed me. The joy of yout
