Bank of Engiand Notes.

Bank of England notes are made from pure white linen cuttings only, never from rags that have been worn. So carefully is the paper prepared that even the number of dips into the pulp made by each indivi- dual workman is registered on a dial by machinery, and the sheets are carefully counted and booked to each person through whose hands they pass.. The printing is done by a minst curious process withia the bank building. There is an elaborate arrangement for securing that no notes shall be exactly like any other in existence ; con- sequently there never has been a duplicate bank note except by forgery. The stock of paid notes for seven years is said to amennt to 94,000,000 and to fill 10,000 boxes, which, if placed side by side, would cover over three miles in exient.—Stationer and Printer.

Agricultural.

Surxpe.—The man who makes the busi- ness pay is the man who carefuily selects his breeding ewes, annually culls out the old and inferior stock to fatten for market, and constantly keeps at the head of his fick a thoroughbred male, Sif he cannot afford to start with purely bred ewes. No other kind of stock-raising pays so liberally at present as sheep growing if properly attended to. To be a successful flock-

; master you must keep your flock young,

feed well, and breed with judgment.

Cuancine Foop ror Hocs.—The follow- ing experiment was made by Lehmann, in Weidlitz. He fed a hog one year and nine months old, fora long time with nothing but rye bran, and commenced to give whole grain after the animal’s digestive organs had become accustomed to the ex- clusive bran diet. He found that of rye 49 per cent., of barley, 54 3 per cent., and of vats 50.6, and of peas four per cent., re- mained undigested. Therefore, if animals, once accustomed to artificially prepared food, have to eat whole grain, the waste will be much larger than it is if the same have received nothing else since they were weaned Consequently a change from pre- pared food to whole grain is, as a rule, not advisable, while a change the other way will do better.

DON’T.

Don’t sleep in a draught.

Don’t go to bed with cold feet.

Don’t stand over hot air registers.

Don’t eat what you do not need just to save it.

Don’t sleep with insecure false teeth in your mouth,

Don’t start the day’s work without a good breakfast.

Don’t sleep ina room without’ ventilia- tion of some kind.

Don’t stuff a cold lest you be next ob- liged to starve a fever.

Don’t try to get along without flannel underclothing in winter.

Don't try to get along with less than eight or nine hours’ sleep.

Don’t use, your voice for loud speaking or singing when hoarse.

Don't sleep in the same undergarments you wear during the day-

Don’t toast you feet by the fire but try sunlight or friction instead. ’

Don't try to keep up on coffee and alcoholics when you ought to go to bed,

Don’t eat snow to quench thirst; it brings on inflammation of the throat.

Don’t strain your eyes by reading or working with insufficient or flickering light.

Don’t use the eyes for reading or fine work in the twilight or evening or early morn.

Don’t try to lengthen your days by ext- ting short your nights’ rest; it is poor economy.

The smelt fishery of the Miramichi has earned the fishermen who are engaged in it $25,000 this season, and there is no cessa- tion or falling off in it yet. As many as sixty tons of these fish in a day have been cirried over the railway from Chatham alone this winter. The fishermen recive cash on the ice for all the bass and smelis they catch. The dealers who buy and ship the fish, the railways that transport them, and the merchants who supply the fisher- men, are all interested in this industry and are benefited largely by it. There are worse countries than New Brunswick, even in winter.
