Evidences of pre-historic man have been, and are being - found in almost eve ry parifolthe United States, as well as in I.lle'countries of the Old World.. We read of tko "Stone Age," k‘BrOnze Age, "-and " Iron Age" of Europe and the British Isl e ands ;:eif the lake-dwellings of Switzer land, of the cave-dwellers of France, Bel glunt, and the British Islands ; of the "mound-builders," "cave-dwellers," and " cliff-dwellers" of .the various parts .of the United States; Many relic's have been foimd, iu the Southern and Western t;tatcs, especially in' Tennessee, Colorado, Ohio, 3lichigan, -. 3lissouri . and omc relics have been found in • the , Southern and Western part of Pennsylva nia, but not until recently have we been led t belie a that there was any evidence of 'vre:histuric than in Bradford County. • It has been the i opinion of some that the t skeletons!exlinnied in Burlington t on the McKean farm,. in w ,vre preddstuiticorigin. .A 1 few years : Mee some images were found ou 'Sugar t:reek by.sonte children, and were picked tr,t as " , funny stones.'? Upon ex i amina. tiou we are sitistied that they are relics of :t race In ioi• to' the Indian. •The images are -composed of Stone and indurated clay, ;URI were molded by hand., One i nf the images reritesents a tu i rkey gobbler. The tail, tuft of fuatitets ott; the breast, and n.‘ e k, are o f stone, v. - filch have been set in the cl.ty that haS been*...so molded as to fonn , tile boily.

The timber is (orn 11,000 to 12,liOttfeet above the sea. 11 THERE are nut enough reading charts in use in our _schools. The attention of small pupils can he better secured by the use of charts than by any other method known to use. They save time and labor~. Be :,ure and get the best, then there will be tth nec4l44, for returning goods that ate over-eistinated by certain agents. TO govern well, talk but little, but do what you say:you will, Tun schools of the county are now nearly all in session, and it is hoped that among the many teachers there are a few at least who will send communications for the Educational Column. The column is for the UFO of the teachers, and we trust they will use it. AT a meeting of the - .editors of tlie Bradford County School journal, at Smithfield. it was agreed that there should be no flings on the book question, inserted in the Journal, but some oae has "e'en n most" slipped. TnE teachers of Canton township re ceive $25 per month and board them selves, those of Leßoy $24. Experience, qualification, size and grade of the school has nothing to do with fixing the salary of teachers. WE hear of an ingenious teacher who ought to apply for a patent for her meth od of stopping communication between pupils in the school•room. She ties news papers over their means for communicat ing. TIIERE are.forty peaks in Colorado that ar..e , upward of 14,000 feet in height. Blanco Peak, the highest, is 14,464 feet above the level of the sea.

Now that the cold weather is com., ing on, those, who keep poultry should see to it that every thing practicable is done to make their fowls comfort able while the fall and winter list. I assume that professional • ' poultry. raisers will attend to this matter without any advice or hints from others, but it is a fact that a great many people who keep hens and other fowls only as an accessory to their fartniivr or other occupations, are accustomed to show some degree of neglect to their poultry during the winter, letting the hens, for the most part, take care of themselves and do the best they can, without being care ful to furnish them with proper, fdod and quarters. Now, if poultry is worth keeping at all it is worth keeping well; sad no'kind of livestock will pay bet ter proportionally for proper care in winter weather than is the c,ase -with ultr po y. To certain extent, the :warmer thi quarters for the fowls the better. If it possibly can be helped they should never be kept in a place where -water will freeze,and it would be all the better if their quarters could be kept ten-or twelve degrees above zero all the time. It is Shameful to keep pool-, try-lits some of our New England'far= mers, do, in old, rickety barns, with chinks an inch wide or more between the board s,where the snow can driVe in and the wind whistle' thronah. In such cases the hens cannot do much, if anything, in the way of egg-mak ing. The man that expects that his hens wilt lay' eggs wilen they are obliged to expend nearly all of their vital force in their effort to keep warm, and to stand on one leg in order to keep the other from freez ing; will find himself sadly mistaken,, and no little disappointed in the size of the egg product. If you wish to have your hens lay in winter, above all things keep your hen houses warm, even !if you have to burn a little wood in them on the. -coldest days. The gbod effects of warm quar ters wilt be seen not only, , in winter but in spring as well, for its will then not take the poultry so long to recu perate from the injurious effects of the winter weather. If the putiltry4houses are warm enough it will not so -, much matter what kind of food the hens ,haVe, provided it is well to, occasionally feed them with warm mashed pota toes and boiled apples, which the hens will eat 'voraciously. If, how ever, the hen-houses are as warm as they should be, the necessity for fur nishing the poultry with warm food will, be so much theless,although it will do them c good in any case.. As-t to drinking, the hens should have all the water they need; but the quarters should be so warm that - the water will never be in danger of freezing.' GiVe the fowls good quarters, good feed and plenty of water, and they' will. amply repay i you for your ex penditure of time and money. ,Other wise, you will probably find' poultry keeping a dead loss .in winter.— A infrican Cultird(o;-.. _ I= Cows in Early Winter 4 t-no season of' the_year do dots need better and more generous diet than in early winter. The change from grass to dry fodder is of itself sufficient cause to produde rabic or less derangement of jhealth. BUt I when- thb animal's tone ''and ; vigor have been lowered by a long period Of milking, and she is theh subjected I,' , at the same time to the-rigors of ter, and a change of food from utdri tiaus herbage to dry,• coarse,. • and I often itinutritious fodder,' a' severe tax is'laid on her system. Yet, on many farms it' is the practice to feed to cattle in early winter only a coarse and inferior„fodder, and poorest hay. because these articles have been I stowed last in the. barn, 'or the tops of the mows, and must, therefore,, be disposed of before the better portions of the supply can. be reached. This, 'however, is a great mistake. as the best food should be given when the cows first go into winter quarters. Afterward,' when they have been, dried of theii milk and, h&ve grown accustomed to the change of diet, the poorer food may be used, or,- bet ter still, as animalS : , like • men, are' :fond of variet3 - , in their diet, the corser and Jess. nutritious fodder may be advantag,eonsly used in con junction with that'or a better quat ity. Through neglect of thiarprecatition, howerer, it frequently happens that cows in milk loose flesh in Novt.m ber and December, and sink .into a bnd condition to endure still more severe weather yet to 'be expected. To avoid this irnisforturie, , , in cases where poor or 'damaged fodder.'-has necessarily to be given out first, the feed should-be supplemented with rations , ot• ground grain, oat and cornmeal mixed. bran,' or ship-stuff, to a proper . amount of nutriment. to a given bulk of fodder. Compelling cows to consume an excessive. bulk of inferior foed, .in Order . t 6 enable them.to suppcitt life. and yield milk, overcrowds the stomach, tends to derange health, and 'IS by no•rneans • a rare cause of serious ailment.§. Moreover, on the score of self-inter est, as well, as. of humanity. -- cows. should not.he allowed to lose flesh in early winter, for it would require much more food to restore them to good 'condition in cold weather than in summer. Besides 'this, as lean animals are more susceptible to cold than those in `flesh, and a proportion ately larger amount of-the food they consume - is therefore.. expended in generating a . s,ufliciency of animal beat, it would require considerably more food to carry. a poor beast through winter than a fat One, even though nothing,may be added-to the animal's condition. The necessity of shelter for All kinds of stock from' the storms; frosts and inclemency of this bleak season, has been frequently dwelt upon in these pages, and its economy' as well as its humanity fully demon strated,--INrab Hew 'Yorker.
