HOW TO DISTINGUISH ULD HENS.

From an article by Mr. Edward Brown, F. L, 8., a renowned author and authority ! om poultry matters in Great Britain, Professor Roberteon has condensed the fol- lowing :

Fow!s sbould be killed off after they have completed their second 5 ear,

Birds may be marked #0 as to be easily distinguiehed, by putting a ring on one leg when they are pullets,

The best time is when the pullets are from five to 8ix months old.

A round India rabber ring euch as those used for umbrellas, cr @ ring of copper or any eoft flexible metal, 1s suitable.

The riog should be put on to it fairly close, but not tightenough to injure the leg.

a examination should be made of every fowl a fortnight after the riog has been put on.

In order to distinguish between the fowls one year and two years old, it isa good plan to put the riogs on the left legs only im one year, andthe rings on the right legsonly next year and so on in the alternate years. If the rings are put on the right legs ia 1898, then all hensin the flock with rings on the right legs will be ready for killing io 1900, It the rings are put oo the left legs in the autumn of 1899, then those bens will be ready for killing in tha autumn of 1901.

It ia desirable that a written record should be made of the facts, as Lue memory is apt to be taulty.

The advantage tothe poultry keeper from marking the fowls, far more than compensates for the trouble whic is involved.

THE WORKING OF THE BUTTER.

Prof. Robertsoa in his Afier the butter is salted it should be lef: for two or three hours, to allow the salt to dissolve. Then, bya second working; the axcess of moisture may be expelled, the salt thorougbly mixed, and any streaki-~ ness in colour corrected, I: ia not neces» sary that butter to be put in small prints, or for immediate consumption in a local market, should be worked the second time, The second working makes it drier. Care must be taken that the butter be not overworked and made greasy. This may result from the butter being worked ata temperature either too high or too low. W here practicable, it should be worked at at a temperature which leaves it in a waxy condition, causing it to bend about one~ half towards the under layer when it is being doubled on the butter worker. A temperature of 50° Fabr. will usually put the bntter ia the best condition for being worked, Scmetimes injury results from a larger quantity beiog placed on the butter worker than can be handled cons veniently.

OBITUARY. On Saturday, the 8tb inst., the unwel- come intruder. Death entered the home of

Donald Ross, Eeq., of Bedeque, and called away one ofits number, A mother’s love is Do guarantee againet the incursivn of the sleepless foeof human happiness, Al~ though but little over a week laid aside from the active duties of the household, and loviogly attended by husband aad family, the cold meesenger etealthily en~ tered, snapped the silver cord and the triumpbant spirit soared alofi and entered upon thesolema realities of eteraitv,

Over thirty-six years ago Mrs Roes be- came amember of the Church of Scotland, and bas always lived a consistent christian life, Of aretiring and modest disposition, she did not make ae loud a profession as many others, but it was her delight to cou- verse about religious matiers and epeak of the love of God shed abroad in the hearts of His people. She will b+ greatly missed by many atraveller as one noted for her

hospitality: in the community as a kind and obliging neighbor, in the family as a _ loving, sftec- tionate wife avd mother. This was

shown by the very large number who as- sewhled on Monday, Oct. 10, from all parts of the country to show their respect for the depar.ed. The so'emn eervices were performed by the Rev Daniel McLean who spoke from Job 1410; “But man dieth and wasteti away, yea man giveth up the ghost, aud where is he?” He was assiated in the services by the Rev Mr Me Kay, of Kensing'on. The remains were then followed to Wilmot Valley, and there laid to reat uutil the Lord Himeelf shall descend from Heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God;and the dead in Christ sha)l rise first.”

Much sympathy is felt for Mr Ross and family in their time of bereavemeng, yet,

“Sweetly remembering that the parting sigh

Appoints His saints to slumber, not to die,

The starting tear we check— we kiss the rod,

And not to earth resign them, but to God.”
