They are situated ( on the south slope of a hill, and com prise six or seven sheds 200 feet in length. Kach shed is divided into apartments of 12 or 20 feet, and ' ' about twenty-five liens arc kept in I • each divisions. A yard is made in ! s front of each apartment, so that the | mcmliers of each arc by themselves. ' Mr. Hawkins believes that if confin ' led poultry have all their wants at- j 1 tended to, they will do as wi 11 i/, egg-' producing as if allowed free range. He bu'ts this belief upon several ' tests.

In packing, the tub is turned - on the small end, and a sack of cot ton i loth is made to til the tub, and i into this the butter is packed until it reaches to within an inch of the groove for holding the upper head. A cloth is next laid upon the top of the butter and the edges of the sick brought over this and neatly pressed down; then the head is put into ila i place and the hoops driven home- The package is turned upon the large end and the sack of butler drop* down, leaving a apace e>n the sides ami top.
