Windows will readily give entrance to the light of the sun and the rellection of the snow; but they should be made double, so as to secure warmth, and well fitted in, especially the outside sash. (lean liness and fresh air are a necessity. Ventilation and disinfectants are the means to secure them ; the latter not lacking in variety to meet the circum stances, among which dry air, secired by a coal stove, stands first, the stove also serving as a superior ventilator to carry off the heavy, noxious air below. The windows, of course, are to he on the south side, and if the north side is secured by a rise of ground or the wall of another building-anything that ef fectually keeps out the cold-all the better. This for winter. To carry out the true spirit of a successful henery, the keeper must be on good terms with his feathered family, and permit of no strange intrusions, to frighten the fowls; for no frightened fowl will lay. All disturbance, of whatever kind, must be avoided, and kindness and gout treatment exercised from earllest chickenhood to the end. This makes a fowl at home, and eager, it' a prollie breel, for prop agaition. If she now has a suiiiency, not, an excess, of food the necessary variety, so that she is satisfied ; Is strong, but not fat, with pure water whenever she wants it, and some gravol to grind her food; also roon enough in her tlularters, so that she does not feel continement-in a word, if she is happy, she will lay. Avoid, by all means, an exclusive diet of corn. Let corn be among several other grains, buckwheat leading. Scraps of meat and otllet" animal food should occasionally be given, as well as green vegetable material, or in sum mer access to grass and a range in the fresh air. A n occasional forage of th is kind, say once a day, is of vast beneflt, and a pleas tre to the fowl, as well as to the keeper who observes it.

A hock bone, with their skilful maniipulation, will make a delicious din ner for a large family, and they will save stock enough, with the a(dibion of a variety of cheap vegetabies, to make a nuitri lious soup1 for the next (day's dirner.

Now add lie 1ye, tallow and resin to gether, anid boil gently till the tallow is thoroughly saponilled, or killed, which is known when the soap becomes clear, like strained honey.
