Bran, whether of wheat or rye, Is of itself a perfect food, that is, it contains all the elements of animal nutrition, and in such proportions as are needed for every animal product, with the sole ex ception of sulphur. It is rich in bonc mnking materials, as lime and phosphoric acid, and has a ratio of nitrogenous to carbo hydrates exactly fitted for com plete nutrition. This is 5 of the latter to one of the former. Its relative value as compared with othur foods in money is f 1 per 100 pounds, and it has three per cent, of fat. But it is not quite so digestible as the whole grains from which it is derived. Consequently it should be fed with other kinds of food that are richer in starch and fat. Thus the best way of feeding it is when mixed in equal proportions with oatmeal, which is better than anv one of the oil meaU. Four pounds of each of these two foods is a usual quantity for a day's feeding for a. cow. For Bheep, which require more sulphur than other animals, on ac count of the quantity of this that is con tained in the fleece, some linseed meal may be added, and clover hay or roots, which, being rich in sulphur, may be fed with bran to advantage. Xew York Times. MAKE THE FARM BCIXDINGS COMFORTABLE A farmer should never attempt to win ter mora stock than he can furnish with comfortable shelter. Many farmers have large farm buildings but they soon get out of repair, a board off, a door bang ing by one hinge, or leaky roofs. Such buildings are not comfortable. The openings allow snow to continually sift in, or give free and uninterrupted access to drafts of cold air. In such cues a pound of nails and a few hours' time iu repairing often saves a ton of hay in one wiuter. A building which is simply boarded up should have the cracks bat tened and thus made as tight and close as possible. Use steel wire nails long enough to be clinched. This takes a little longer but the battens will then always remain cU.se fitting, which means warmer room and stock in better con dition with less fodder. The building should not be made so close as to be un comfortable during the pleasant days of spring, but there should be free and thorough ventilation when the higher temperature may require it. Fodder may be cheap, but nails and boards are cheaper, whereas feed is gone in a single season, while buildings are a perraenent investment. Provide suitable racks and mangers to feed the stock from, and do not feed from the ground or snow bank. Keep the different kinds of stock in a separate inclosure. Feed regularly, and provide nn adequate supply of fresh water, American Agriculturist. TEAMS IN fviNTER. After the corn is cribbed aud the fall plowing done there is not a great deal of team work to be done during the wiuter. There will be some feed to haul, more or less manure to haul out and some fuel to haul. Usually one team will do all that is necessary. It will be best to have this team well shod and well fed so that they can readily do what is required of them. It is always an item to keep them thrifty, feeding and groom ing well and regularly. It does not pay to allow any of them to run down, and while with those that are not at work it is always an item to winter as economi cally as possible, at the same time the eco nomical wintering should never be done at the expense of condition. Close con finement is not good for horses. They need exercise and they should be allowed to run out every day that the weather will permit. It may not be advisable to turn them out into the pastures, but they can have the run of a lot to good advan tage. If well sheltered and iven plenty of roughness very iittle grain will be needed, but they should have some. Un threshed oats run through a feed cutter, with a small quartity of bran, makes one of the very best feeds for tho idle teams iu wiuter. But hay and corn fodder, with a little corn and bran, will make a good ration. Once a week give all the hordes a bran mash. This will havo a tendency to keep the bowels open and will serve uko to make a vanety. Never feed more of anything than they will eat up cI.mu. Even with straw or corn fodder only what they will eat clean should be giveu. This is neces sary if they have a good appetite. Coru can neuily always bu fed with bene3t when the sve.Jh-r is very cold on accou'it of its heating qualitie. Use all reasonable cere to kep them comfort able, as iu this way it is much easier to keep them thrifty. AVhilo it is not nece;try to feed the teams that r.rc not at work cs much as those that aro at work will need, yet it will pay at all times to supply enough to keen them thrifty.as iu the end it will cost leu than to allow them to run down and then bo obliged to feed up before tho ecaon for work opens. The beat way is to begin iu good entson iucrcaa injr tin. rutious as it in.iy seem necessary. it. Louiu Ilepublic. viN-rcn CAiir. or live stock. If jiy of tha farm ttoclt art little thin during the winter, they should re ceive extra attention and food. If sheep, separate those in poor flesh, or the old ones from tho young, and feed according to their condition, for even if there is plenty of rack and trough room, the strong will crowd away the weak, and obtain the lion's share. If each is al lowed only the food actually needed, the results will be different. It does not look well to see a flock of sheep in which some are so feeble as to be hard ly able to rise alone, whita others are plump and strong. Neither docs it in dicate good management for a farmer to sell each year, during the spring, a half dozen or more sheep pelts, taken from animals that died from neglect. It is worse than neglect to take the sheep from the pasture in the fall in good con dition, and in four or five months allow them to gradually fall away in tlesb, and die. With old sheep that are allowed to become thin, it will require good management to bring them through alive, especially if they are to raise lambs. Those in this condition should have a liille ground feed four or five times a day, and be so isolated that others will not crowd or worry them. Give bright clover hay, pure water, an occasional apple or potato and they will soon be in good condition. The cattle should have warm quarters at night, and spring calves should not be allowed with the older stock. Borne cows that are very gentle and kind in the summer season, are very tyrannical in the winter season. If there are no accommodations to keep such ones isolated, they should certainly be de horned, or at least have the tips of their horns provided with knobs. Ia fact all cattle that arc confined should either be dehorned, or have their horns thus pro tected. The knobs prevent injury frooa hooking, improve their appearance, and cost but a few cents. If you do not do this, romovo the tip end of the horn ith a fine saw, rounding up with a sharp knife, but knobs should be at tached if possible. If the cattle aro otiliged to go to the creek or pond for water, the approach should be carefully shoveled out, and it ice covers the sur face, it should be roughened so that tha cattle will not slip. This can be) done in a cold day by throwing on snow, and dashing water on it, or cut in the sur face with an axe, as much stock is seriously injured each winter by slipping and straining while drinking. When cattle are protected by an open shed, there is occasionally one animal so illy disposed, that all the rest are driven out from the shelter, and the others dare enter only when the boss if lying down. Either confine such a one separately or fit for market at the first opportunity. Nail up a small box somewhere under shelter, in which to keep salt at all times. This is better than simply salt ing them at odd timea. Ity confining the cattle in stanchion during the night and allowing them to run at large during the day in pleasant weather, a full grown cow or steer can be kept in better condition on half a ton less of hay, than by the old out of door rough and tumble plan. Of course this makes a little more work, but the man ure, if piled up under shelter or drawn to the field during the winter, will well pay for the extra time; besides most farmers havo leisure time duriug the winter season, aud may thus tura it into money. If possible never allow colts and horses to run loose with cattle. Colts, if they are kept in good condition, will certainly have their play spells and race the cattle about at a fearful rate. Un less cattle are dehorned, when penned up, they will use their boms ia a dis astrous manner, and especially seem to have a grudge against horses, and will, if possible, injure them at the first op portunity. Colts should be halter broken, led about aud tied up during the day; treat them kindly so they will coine to you at the call. This is easily taught them by giving a little sugar, corn, or other food, when they approach you. Use the curry comb freely on both colts and horses, whether they arrt at work or not. It keeps the skin in a good healthy condition, and gives the stock a neat, trim appearance. American Agricultur ist. FARM AND OARCBN NOTES. No ventilation is as injurious to fowls as draughts. Young chickens have small crops and must be fed frequeutly. "Ivory" is considered one of the best of the white chrysanthemums. It does not pay to raise onions on the same land for a succession of yean. The "Mrs. W. C. Whitney rose" is rose colored and emits a delicate odor. The geranium is an excellent window bloomer aud re juires comparatively lit tle care. Ileus that are kept quiet and ta ne will nearly alwiys make better layers and mothers. One reason for hens not laying at this season is that they are often too crowdel in their quarters. Many good authorities believe that fall calves can be better raised than spring ones, the argument being that calves coming now aro kept iu the barn and well fed, thus gettiug a good sturt to make the best of the grazing season next year.

The specific action of alcohol, while pro ducing a general dieturlntneeof and icjury to all the vital organs, is especially detrU nnntal to the brain, which ia composed of numerous minute cells, of a gray, fatty substance, with a large proportion of water. Alcohol has a strong affinity for water, and when taken in the stomaoh, being very vol atile, a portion ot it goes immediately to ward the brain, and disturbs the finely ar ranged nerve-fiters and blood vessel so as to impair their inability to nourish this fatty sulwtanoe. In this way it renders the brain inmpable of continuous logical thought or action, ai.d the man is said to be more or less "drunk," which is another way of saying that the man's brain is paralysed, or parched with inflammation and conges tion. Tn is effect can be tested by putting a drop of alcohol on the tongue; the smart ing, stinging sensation proves that it is parched by the alcohol's eagerness to absorb or get at the water in the tongue; and this irritating effect is the same on all the or gans of the body, besides pro-lucing a crav lug thirst.

"Writing from Bt. retersbnrg, our cor respondent says: A curious case come up for trial in St Court of Second In stance next week, the details of which are instructive. The plaintiff, an lady took a strong fancy to a tiny lap-dog a few months ago, which she declared was tha prettiest and funniest little creature she had ever set her eyes upon. The dealer, however, dampened her enthua ura by asking an exorbitant price for tho animal, whose nimbl.ness and vivac ity were certainly marvolous. A day or two latet the lady called again, deter mined to pay the extravagant price, but like the Human king, when bidding for the books of the Sybil, her offor was refused and the price raised. Bhe acted somewhat different from the pagan monarch, however, and paying the money, returned home with tho covetod prize. All her friends admired her new ac quisition, but both she and they agreed that it was somewhat queer that the animal should be continually slinkini away into dark corners, and generally fighting shy of the light, while she had no more success in trying to tame it than if she bad tried her hand on a jaguar. The general conduct ol the lap-dog was highly mysterious, but it was a mystery possessed of a certain charm which rather added to its value than otherwise. They fed tho animal with the best of everything, and, one day, after it had partaken of a hearty meal, its mistress thought she heard an explosion. Look ing round, she missed her Inp-dog, but in its place beheld an enormous rat standing on the dog's skin, in which it hid been cunningly sewed up by the dishonest dealer. Tho case will now be heard by a Court of Second Instance in connection with the question of the amount of damages claimed by the plain tiff.

"Come," ho said, "swallow this all at once." The victim did so slowly, and found to his into isc surprise and relief when the operation was completed that the hiccoughs had vanished. "Now," remarked the first gentleman, "for teaching you that remedy I'll take just one cigar with you. It is not a part of the process, but it's worth the price, isn't it?

The Royal Baking Powder NEVER fails. It is absolutely pure aud wholesome. It is combined from the most approved and healthful ingredients. It makes the finest flavored, most tender, delicious and wholesome food. It has greater leavening strength than any other baking powder, and is therefore the cheapest. It never loses its strength, but will keep fresh and of full leuvening power until used. It acts slowly in the dough, so that none of its strength is lost before the baking is completed. It makes food that will keep sweet, moist and fresh longer, or that may be eaten hot and fresh with impunity. The reasons why the Royal Baking Powder is superior to all others in these respects are easily stated. One is because it is made from chemically pure materials; another is because it is made with greater care and accuracy than any other. It is always uniform in composition and leavening power. It has been the tandard baking powder since its introduction. The founder and con ductor of its business ever since is still at Ltjto head of It. management.

Until you go to an opon air market in the south of Frauce you do not know what genuine pleasure can be obtained from the usual prosaic proceeding. Just imagine great, beautiful cherries at eiuht cents a pound, strawberries about five cents a pound, grapes, plums, pears, peaches, nil in the perfection of beauty and luscious flavor, sold on the tame small scale according to our American ideas. Green almond and filberts, ol ives, mushrooms, fresh fish right from the waters that nlmost lapped the edges of the primitive market (for there were but few booths, almost everything bein displayed on cloths laid out on the ground that sloped down to the smiling sea), radishes ami lettuce just picked in the quaint old time gardens on the ad jacent slopes, and above all and domin ating even tha baskets of snails with a breath of summer, were the great pan niers tilled with blossoms whose beuti:y and fragrance would bring tremendous prices in this laud of ours, where roses sometimes are worth their weight in gold. For tweuty cents one can fill a carriage with mignonette, violets, carna tions as spicy as they ate vivid; jasmine, mimosa, heliotrope and great c rcadi and pink roses that hang their head with the burden of their own fragrance. Philadelphia Times. Offing to tho low price of wheat iu South America, the exporters of Buenos Ayrcs are doing nothing, and the wheat is accumulating and being sold for local consumption. These are Facts which knowledge and skill attained by over a quarter of a century's experience is available in its present preparation. The consumer is not experimented upon by changes of formula that are constantly being made in other powders in an effort to get a mixture that will not "cake" or lose its strength, or that follow changes of proprietorship or manu facturers. The Royal Baking Powder is always certain and equal in its work; a teaspoonful does the same perfect work to-day that it did yesterday, or last week or month, or last year. While the last teaspoonful in a can of Royal is as good as the first, other powders lose their strength after being made a short time, and par ticularly after the can is opened. The exactness with which the active principle of each ingredient prior to mixing is ascertained by expert chemists; the actual prohibition enforced against the receipt into the works of an impure in gredient; the care with which the materials arc dried, coated and prepared before their combina tion, and the precision in packing the powder so that it shall be delivered to the consumer in the perfect condition in which it leaves the factory, are some of the details which go to make tha perfect " Royal." The same means are not employed by other manufacturers. There have been a great many imitations of the Royal, but no equals. Pure materials are not employed, care is not taken in their preparation and combination, while in the great majority of baking powders alum is added to give them strength, while cheapening their cost The great popularity and general use of tha Royal Baking Powder attest its superiority.
