Thu snow came down, and in
its purity looked as soft and
lleecy as down. The boys all
came down with their sleighs
and down go the girls te the
jingle of the merry bells. Many
people have been down en the
slippery sidewalks, and conse
quently feel rather down in the
mouth. We have also came
down very considerably in the
prices of our stock of Winter
Caps, Gloves, Fur Cellars, Seal
Caps, etc Ne one need te go
about shivering with the cold
because we have warm comfort
giving articles at reduced prices
te meet the possibilities of the
most limited pocket-book. Come

it in impossible te tell whit may be the

tcd thu rainfall for November te be suven
Hixteeuths of an ineh, and for Dccember,
iiicliiditiR melted snow, at 2 inches ami six
sixteenths.
I'cterS. Heist said it was impei'ant te
have the tobacco crop discushcil A. lari0
portion of it is in the hands of farmers,
aud there are reports of tip ret and ethor
damage. He was auxiouste hear the re.il
condition of the ciep, and as te thu
best way of stripping, asserting and pre
paring it for market. Selar ai Lu en

Mr. Kiltie said thatsome farmeis iu his
uolghberhooil who had suiiercd fietn tip
mould cut oil the damaged part of the 1 (
with bhcars.
8. P. Kaby said he had two aud a half
acres of tobacco, aud uuder direction of
buyers, his farm or had cut oil the damaged
tips and baled thu tobaeco as usual
J 11. Laudis said that in his uuighb ir
hoetl the growers were making separate
grades of their tobacco ; the pjrfoec was
catefully sop.irated Irem that which hid
meuldy tips ami meuldy ribs.
M. I). Kendig regarded it as bemg vciy
important te keep the geed leaf sep irate
from the damaged. He asked whether it
w.ib butter in vety wet wea Inr, siuh as
we had bofero tUu e jld sn ip, t ) keep the
tobacco hoiise open or shut up. llu own
opinion was that it in bjtter te keep the
house 0)1011. He had noticed that the to
bacco which was out earliest and vr.u Llie
driest sullercd moie Irem tip ret tb. in the
later tobacco.
Jehn II. Laud is, of the same township,
said this experience was ex idly the 10
verse the early cut tobacco escaped and
the late suITered from tip ret.
President UcsU said his bjst tobicce
was that which he had hun' ever his hay
mow, aud hi3 worst that which he hung
iu a shed near the ground. Willi one el
hib neighbors the case was exactly thu re re ro
verso, thu tobace'i that was hung ever the
hay mew damaged, while that which was
hung below escaped. He beheied tli.it
tobacco hung near the vcutilateis was
mero likely te be damaged by mould than
that which hangs further away liem it.
Petor 8. Heist tlnught it te ba the du'y
of this noeioty te leek after the tobacco
iuteiests of this county, which tue new
meuaccd by the impettati m efumitra
and ether tobaccos grown en cheap lauds
and cultivated by cheap labet, with winch
we oatiuet oempoto, and which will duve
our tobacco out of the maiket unlet. it
lecolves the protection te which it is
entitled. He thought something sheu'd
bu dene te provent the ovum m et the l,iw
by which Sumatra tobacco was imp und
under a duty of ej cents mtttead of 75
cents and a dollar, as the law contem
plated. Mr. Eby agreed that Heme act en should
be taken specdily, and that this boeioty
should take the initiative.
Mr. Kendig said a uhan'e hheu d ba

urged early notion.

Johnseu Miller moved th i tins i unity

Calviu Ooepor doubted timid opt i ty of

te keep up the animal beat oveu when
the stoek is warmly stabled. Feed
rich iu eat beh drates Is the proper
thing te tdistaiu Intense combustion and
also te fatten the animal. Cern is such a
feed aud fortunately is raised hore in as
great porfection as iu any part of the
world. The animal's nervous and mus.
cular aud bony structuie miut be main
tained also, aud te have symmetrical and
healthy development must have phospho
rus and nitrogen. llr.iu, shorts, clevor,
hay and linseed cake oentaiu these
elemuuts, nnd iu addition te corn make a
porfect ration. Solcuce indicates that a
uiixtuie of two parte, by moasure, of com
und oiie pait of bran would be a geed pre
pet Hen for fattening c.ittle, and com and
bran half nnd half or corn aud eats fur
dairy cows or yeunggnwlng stoek. The
experience el practical foedors and stock
grewers enllims the theories of the
ehemtht.
Animals like a ohange of feed, tee.
Coiufeddci and hay may be giveu nlteru
ately, and an occasional feed of potatoes,
mangelds or oveu turnips is much re.
United. These roots are from uluety te
ninety llve per cent, water, and yet the
avidity with which cattle eat them iu win
tcr would indicate that they are useful for
a ohange and probably assist iu the diges
tion and assimilation of dry feed. Of
course all animals should have water at
least once a day.
As regards the value of ousilage for
stock I have net had any practical oxpo expo oxpe
rionco but am inclined te think it will be
a means of koeplnj a larger number of
animals through the winter months. Any
ene who has been watching the discussion
of the eusiligu question iu the agricultural
papers cannot help but sce that the adve
oates et the system are invariably thoae
who are using it aud can Bpeak authorita
tively and the opponents are almost inva
riably mure theorists. Chemists who are
reiterating their assertions that well cured
hay contains the same olements as grass
mmun the water, ought te knew that oews
fed ou grass only will make a much larger
quantity of butter und of botter quality
than the same oews fed ou hay only.
Eveiy farmer knows that cows changed
from dry feed te grass immediately
increase the production of milk aud
butter aud vice versa, I oamiet
sce why properly pioservod green feed
may net preduce tne same result.
M st of the cattle foedors in this county
give thelr steers a ration of meal at neon,
but 1 have net known daily men te feed
nicii' t'j their cows mero than twice per
day. It is all impeitant that animals
should be fed at stated times. When the
time comes they are restless until fed and
consequently de net thrive. All the best
feuders with which I am acquainted curry
their steers daily, and thu animals enjoy it
greatly utid, 1 have no doubt, thrive better
for it. ltopiuted oxperlmouts, hew ever,
at an cistern station would scorn te show
that fattening cattle lay ou fatfaster with
out currying.
It is host en mild days te let st iclc of all
kinds have at least an hour ur two te sun
thumfclvis. Sunshine is as essentlat te
animals as te plants. I have uet men
tioned the old Euglish system of "pit
feeding." I think it has nover found
favor iu this country. A pit is dug large
enough te permit the animal te turn
around aud no moie. The steer te be
fattened is thou lowered Inte it. llcddiug
la tin own in overy day, aud feed and
watur lowercd as often as necessary. The
depth of the pit aud the dally allowance of
bedding are no propeitionod that when the
animal is fat the pit is' full of manure of
the bout quality. Iu this way the beast is
kept hi porfect quiet aud is said te in in in
ouasein weight very lapldly. I would
L'et advise any oue te attempt this mode
of feeding here, lest he Bheuld be re
ported te the society for the proveutloii e f
ciueity te animals. ,1. u. Linvili.i..
