To have your ponitry bring its proper value in the market it should be killed ancl deessecl as follows Starve for 24 hours ; bleed by sticking, leaving the heed ou; pluck dry ;do not ecald, as it disfigures the skin ; leave 5 or 6 of the tip feathers in the wing in ; do not cut off the legs, When they aril killed with grain in the crop, the grain Will ferment and sour, giving the meat a bad fiavor. Follow out these instructions and your poultry will be worth much more anoney. In the absence of a town By-law prohibiting the sale of -poultry not drawn, merchants and others who deal in poultry should take the matters into their own hands and refuse all poultry not drawn. D isappears in the Darkness. On Sunday morning last the citizens awoke, greatly surprised to notice that, what appeared but a couple of days previous to be the opening of a vigorous winter, had disappeared during Saturday night. .During Saturday the streets were thoroughly alive with cutters and sledges, and business was booming in all direction's. In the evening, however, the wind changed and rain began to fall, and by Sunday morning the snow, which covered the surface several inches in depth, had melted away, and the glean grass and dark land was presented to the gaze. The sudden change was a suprise to all, but a very unfavorable one. The tflood. In consequence of the sudden change in the weather on Saturday night the "Sauble, which, during the fall has been unusually low, was swollen enormously, and. on Sun- day presented a sight seldom seen after the spring freshets. Abont one o'clock, p. rn., the ice jam on the pond gave way, and in a few minutes afterwards the stream was fill- ed with mammoth logs and all manner of underbrush and debris which had collected during the past summet in the woods to the East. It would seem incredible to say that in a couple of hours, the water raised over three feet. Many citizens viewed the troubled waters with much interest and at one time it Was feared that the dam would go. Accidents. On Wednesday of last week, Henry Clark, son of Airs. N. Clark, of the Sth con. Stephen, mot with a serious accident. While splitting wood in the bush in com- pany. with some other young men, by some means one of the axes slipped, nearly sever- ing his hand from his wrist. It was a. terrible cut. Surgical aid was called and the wound dressed- Thehandwillproba,bly be saved but will be partly useless for life. —On Satorclay last while John Whitlock, who lives just south of the village, was in the bush chopping he accidentally cut his foot, cutting througli the boue of bis big toe at the joint. It bled. severely. Aid was summoned and the wound dressed, and. is now doing all well. The Exhibition Car. The car in which is stored samples of the products of Manitoba, the North-west and British Columbia, arrived by the Grand Trunk Railway yesterday morning. It was visited by many people. This trip the car is under the management of Mr. W. M. Wernp, colonization agent, Toronto, assist- ed by Mr. Aug. Rohn. The car is attrac- tive. The produce is strrangeclso as to shew off the exhibits to the best possible advan- tage. The sides are hued with heavy topped bunches of native greases, wheat, arley, oats, etc.'and along a flange at both ides of the car is spread out to view the iverse products of the great North-west ountry. The potatoes, of which there are large number of varieties, are uniformly ne appearance. Other kinds of fruit re raised besides that of earth. A choice ollecticm of apples is shown, both preserved nd nut preserved. The British Columbia reserved apples are very fine-looking pecimens, as are also the white grapes and berries. A fine exhibit of mangolds and urnips is made in an alcoye formed of client and barley straw, One Greystone urnip weighs. 25 ponnds and one Swedish urem 23. A fews heads of 13eyptia,n and rench spring wheat are shown, also wild. ops and wild beans which grow profusely n the open prairie. The Kohl-Rabi, a egetable midway between turnip and abbage, vegetable marrows, and ohoose urnpkins are among the novelties in egetables. The climate and soil in which he samples of grain shown was raisedaeems to have been well adapted to bring it to the full development of perfect plumpness. The bulless barley weighs 57 pounds to the bushel, the Empress barley, 55 pounds to the bushel, the black oats, 39 pounds to the bushel, the Red Fife wheat, from 61 to 66 pound* to the bushel; the two and 'six rowed barley, 54a pounds to the bushel, and the white oats 46 'pounds to the bushel. A sample of white Egyptian oats which yield- ed 80 bushels to the acre was shown in the head. Among the other exhibits are a field squash weighing 73 pounds and is mammoth squash, weighing 117 pounds. PrOducts of the mine, as well as those of the farm, are to be seen. A. block of soft coal, weighing 850 pounds, is in the cornea of the car. It was got from the Galt mine, Lethbridge. Samples of copper ore, from the recently distovered mine at Sudbury, are shovrn, also is block of limestone from the Selkirk quarry. The heads of ranch cattle serve to ,decorate the car. ,The man- ager pointed out that one of these cattle at the age of three years cdsts only $5 for the raising.

A distant subscriber writes : "I must 1, P0 say that the Trams is a good local paper, and improves as it grows older. Occasion- t ally a copy goes aStlay, and I feel as though I had lost something valuable. Many others as well as myself read it with avidity."
