The nt xt thing is to see that the fowla have a dust-bath to keep their lodiea free fiom Hoc- aa these breed and keep on the fowls. Tee only way to keep or get rid of them, is to keep a good bath of aand and ashes â€" wood ashes when they can be pro- cniedâ€" and the birds are only too glad to do their part to cleanse themselves. There are many kinia of lice on fowls, some liv- ing eatirely on the feathers othera on the bodies some keep about the heads others ooly appear when dirt accumulates about the bodies. When a fowl gtta sick, thcae paiasitea accumulate rapidly, principally because the bird relaxes that activity which ie necessary to keep itaalf clean. The dust- bath shcnld be cloae to a low window, ao that the sun will ahine directly uroa it. A box sui k till ita edgea are level with the floor, will tempt the fowls tetter than one on the floor, aa aome fowla will not use it m tha*; position. Early pullets will lay about this time, and it is well to observe which lays the ear- liest and keep it up, ao as to be able to se- lect these as hens for breeding pnrpoaea.

Thia he caB do in a variety of waya. Onemeana of doing fo liea in the improvement of his milking tt:ck. This ia a certain but slow way, and mast be the work of years. A more rapid way, and one that can be at once made available, conaiata in reducing the cost of keeping hia cows. This he may do m different ways first, by aecurii^ j^reatcr warmjih and more comfort for hia herd in winter. The heavieat item of expense which he incurs consists in the coit of win- tering his cows, aad the more they are ex- posea to the cold, the heavier that item be- nmea. Animals eat more in winter than in nmmer, simply beoauae more heat ia ab- xirbed from their bodies by the colder air, JBst aa a hot iron will cool faster on a cold day than on a waim one. As the animal beat must be kept up to a uniform atand- »d, the extra loaa of warmth must be re- stored by taking in more fuel in the form of feed, and thia increaaea the coat of keeping aid the coat of producing the aeaaon'a milk. Keep the cowa waim, and they will eat no more in winter than in aummer and they will require less and less extra food in win- ter, jujt in proportion aa they are made *arm and comfortable, and by jnat ao much they will turn out milk at a reduced ex- pense. There Is profit in keeping cowa warm in winter. It costs mnch leaa to tone down the cold of our severe climate by providing warm buildinga for the herd onoe in a life- time, than to furnish extra food year after year to restore heat needleaaly lost by ex- posure 10 cold air. I do noS know of a dairyman who could not do aomathing ia ttia direction toward reducing the coat of Ws milk, and I believe it is pcssible for â- Host dairymen to rednce the coat of wint*r ^eep r.ns-third. I have aeon this done by •everal men who thoaght they were treating 1»eir stock pretty well before they began luking a special effort in thia direction.

After placing theae large planta ia the cell r, it will not be neceaa^ry to give them any water, the objeot being to keep them dormant all winter, which can be cone by keeping the aoil aa. dry as potai- ble, but not ao dry aa to allow the pi inta to ahrlvel, or become withirad. L rge planta of thia kind mentioned, often form oeairable omamenta during the anmmer time.

I went away from home to aell aoma futf head of cattleâ€" fine creatares as I ev«r saw. I was to buy some grooeriea and dry goods before I came back and above aU a dell for our youngest, D^lly. She had never bad a atore doll of her ownâ€" only rag babies her mother hadmadeher. Dolly could talk nothing elae, aad went down to the very gate to o ril after me to get a big one. Nobody but a parent can nndcr- atand how full my mind was of that toy, and how, when the cattle were aold. the firat thing I hurried off to buy waa DoUy'a doU. I found a large one with eyes that would open and shut when yon pulled a wire, and had it wrapped up in a paper and tucked it under my arm while 1 had the parcela of calico and dehune and tea and angar put up. Then, late as it was, I start- ed for home. It might have been prudent to stay until morning, bnt I felt anziona to get biick and eager-to hear DoUy'a praiaea about her doU. I waa mounted on a ateady going old horae and pretty well loaded. Night eet in before I waa a mile from town, and aettled down as dark as p^h while I waa in the middle of the darkest bit of road I knew of. I ouH have felt my way through, I remem- bered it ao well and when the atorm that had been brewing broke, and pelted the rain in torrfnta, I waa five miles or maybe six miles from home. I rode as fast'aa I could, bat all of a aud- den I heard a little cry like a child'a voice. I stopped short and liatened. I heard it again. I called and it answered me. I couldn't see a thing all was aa dark aa pitch. I got down and feU around in the grass â€" called again, and again waa aaawer- ed. Then I b^an to wcnder. I'm not tim- id, bnt I was known to be a drover and to have money about me. It might be a trap to catch me unawares and rob and murder me. I am not snperatitious, not very, but how could a real child be out on the prairie in auch a night, at s loh au hour 7 It might ba more than human. The bit of a coward that hidea itaelf in most men ahowed itself to me then, bnt once more I heard the cry, and aaid I "If any man'a child ia hereabonta, An- thony Hunt is not the man to let it die." I aearohed again. At laat I bethought me of a hollow under the hill and groped that way. Sure euouKh, I found a little dripp'nj thing that moaned and aobbed a? I took it in my arma. I called my horae and the beaat came to me and I mounted and tncked the little aoaked thing under my coat as well aa I could, promising to take it home to mamma. It aesmed ao tired, and pretty aoon cried itaelf to aleep on my bosom. It bad slept there over an hour when I saw my own wiudowa. There were lights in them, and £ supposed my wife had lit thrm for my sake but when I got into the doorway I saw aomethini; waa the matter, and atood atill with a dread fear of heart five minntea before I 03uld lift the latch. At last I did it, and saw the room full of neighbors, and my wife amid them weep- ing. When ahe taw me ahe hid her face. -Oh, don't tell him," she said. "It will kill him." "What ia it, neighbora " I cried. "Nothing, now, I hope. What's that you have in your arms " • "A poor, lost c'lild," aaid I "I found it on the road. Take it, will yen I've turned faint." And I lifted the aleeping thing and aaw the face of my own child, my DiUy. It waa my own darling, and none othnr, that I picked up on the drenched road. My little child had wandered out to meet papa and the doll, while the mother waa at work, and tbey were lamenting her aa one dead. I thanked Heauen on my kneaa before them. It ia not much of atory, neighbora, bnt I think of it often in the nighta and won- der bow I could bear to live now if I had not atopped when I heard the cry of help upon the road, hardly loader than a aquir- relaohirp.

Dr. JnUnaPahlman, a local gadogist ot Niagara Falls, gives a correspondent of the BuffidoCouiner the fcdlowing tJieoij ci how the present cataiaet came into ex- iatenoe: **In tracing the origin of tlii# river," heaaid, '*we most go away back into the pre-glMial times, when the bed of the great lakes was occupied by a great river, aad Tonawanda vauey 'contained a lake 50 miles in length and 16 to 12 miles un width, with a possible maximum depth of 60 feet. The northern hairier of the lake was of limestone formation. Be- ing about 50 feetlower than tihe southern one, the overflow of water was towards the Ontario valley. The outlet found its way into the present channel of the Ni- agara river somewhere neir the upper rapids of the river above the falls. ^»m here the waters met no obstacle, and in their flow predetermined the river gorge between the falls and the whirlpool and continued in a straight course north throngh the side of the whirlpool, and thence through the valley of St. David's in Canada, and onward through the ^On- tario valley. "I have made careful searches and find this track of the river from l^e whirlpool through Canada. By and by t^e Tona- wanda lake hegui to subside, and finally was reduced to a river, with a wide, low valley^ on each side. The course of the river in making its way out of the valley of the ancient lake changed. It flowed in- to the channel of' the present Niagara where the present Tonawanda river enters now. It curved around the southern margin of Grand Island â€"which formed a shallow part of the northern margin of the lake and had risen as a peninsula in thd course of time â€" and then flowed north into the prigipal channel of the out- let, thus determining the two branches of the present river. That branch of the Niagara river which separates the island from the mainland is of quite modem origin, as testified toby sotmdings. Well, the erosion across the thin bed of Niagara limestone naturally cut one or the other parti^of the outlet deeper than the rest, and confining the smaller channels gave birth to a number of larger and smaller islands, known at present as Groat, Bath, Luna, the Slaters, and so forth. "The branchesof the river joined again into one stream as they approached the heavy Niagara limestone at about the site of the new suspension or foot bridge, and rushed north for about three-quarcers of a mile, where they fell over a precipice of about 100 feet. Goat ialand extended northerly in a toiangular prolongation, with its apex somewhere abreast of the northern end of the present American fall. Below this fall of 100 feet, that I have just spoken of, the river descended in rapids over shale until it encountered the Clinton limestone near the railway suspension bridge, where it took anotJ^er leap. From here a short rapid carried it to the entrance of the whirlpool, where another fall was caused by quartzose andstone of the Medina group. Thence there was a rapid current to Ontario basin. The volume of water then was exceedingly small as compare' with the estimated 20,000,000 cubic feet a minute of the present. Now, at the time of the glacial period the movement of the ice sheet was in a north-easterly direction. "The channel of the great river which I remarked about in the beginning was excavated deeply, and the valley of the great lakes was formed. When the Arc- tic climate again changed into a temper- ate one, theice sheet retrefited northward, and in its melting spread over the land all theground up material as well as the rocks which had been caught up and carried un- der, and the valleys of St. David's, Tona- wanda, and others more or leas complete- ly filled v^ with drift The channel of the old Tonawanda river from the whirl- pool was also included in the filling pro- cess. After longages the ice disappeared, and the bed it had occupied became the seat of a chain of great lakes. At this time Lakes Erie and Ontario formed two large bodies of water, and were at the aame, level, that is, their surfaces were even with Lewiston heights. The wateni in the lakes be^tn to subside, and a mud flat appeared between them, extending from Buffalo to Lewiston. An outlet from Lake Erie was formed through this flat, and we have the present Niagara river." A Fadflc Coast Cariosity George W. Fox was over on the coast a few days ago, and has brought back with him quite a curiosity in the shape of a fragment of an abalone shell with an in- fant's foot, shoe and all, incased in aba- lone in the interior of the ahell. The shape is perfect, and indicates a very young child. The sole of the dioe is aeen; the toe is worn, and particles of the stockings may be picked out with a pin or needle. The buttons are covered with abalone, and the button hole where one oiE the buttons is pulled off is seen also the little tassel at the ankle. The body of a drowned infant must have been carried along by the tide and the foot passed into Uie open shell of the shell fish, which was dosed down and the imprisoned foot held until it was severed from the body by dec»j; in the meantime the tiah ooverad the shoe by its secretions. The ankle shows the decay and the rott- ing off of the member, and was not cover- ed over with the shell. It is reported that a woman and her child were drowned off the coast about seven years ago, and it ia supposed that the foot is that of the child.â€" [Redwood Cily (CaL Gazette.
