If you have no bone -cutter, then you are in the predicament of the farmer who has no plow. 'lhe bone -cutter inay cost you a little at tient, but tie it is made of iron, and will Last for years, it soon repays all that is expended in that direction.

Now, as we atatod, do not con- found the bone -mill with the bone -cutter. Ono grinds dry bone and the other cuts green bone. Itis very difficult to grind green bone, but it can be easily aur. Then there is the increase in eggs by tho use of the bone. When the hen is supplied with a complete ration she will lay, end if bone is allowed the hens do not readily be- -come overfab, as they will receive food that is more suitable. AItything that produces eggs is cheap. Corn at ten cents a bushel is not cheap food if ona receives no results. Bone -cutters, will also out vegetables and roots. They will even cut dry bones; but what you should have for your hens.to make them lay is the fresh, green bones from the butcher, and out them so as to convert them into food for liens, Tho poultry droppings will then also be more valuable, and the young stook will grow more rapid- ly We have used bone.cutters, and will state, for our part, that if we supposed that we could not buy another, we would not eel' the ones we have for ten times the cost, and the hens have long ago paid us the aost by laying more eggs. Winter Water -Trough. When bhebirds drink, and their wattles are dipped in the water, there tela liability of the wattles being frozen, the consequence being that they cause great pain to the bird. It has long been a problem how to avoid this difficulty. The use of drinking. fountains prevented frozen wattles as long as they remained intaot, but as such foun- tains are of earthenware they are often broken by the frost, and hence some substitute must be resorted to. We present in thiii issue an ordinary wooden trough covered on the top, with openings not WINTER WATOR•TROn1H. larger than an inch or two in diameter, so that the birds can only insert their beaks to drink. The trough may bo filled and emptied through these openings, and the troughs should be kept filled with water, or the buds will not be able to reach the water level. The samearraugemeut may be used for chinks, only the troughs should be smaller. These troughs can be made at a small cost. If preferred, the top may be movable, or cavi be lifted up, a heavy atone being placed on it to hold it in place. It will save much pain and eulrering to the birds. Gleanings From the Oow Stable.

HARING WAR ON MT, A Lengthy Crusade in Giflegow SAnnlolpal flnitlnlentttq ltt*lhs, Mot milts flat( OYasislng•11artees-.'1'llrlr cost And Stow 'Alley Are I'nlronfzed, Twenty years ago Glasgow began a cam. peige against domestic dirt, The war has boon '.oarrietl .on with some energy, and the militant example of the Soetohcity has been imitated by ether towns in Great Britain. • lint after an experiouce of two dwoades Glasgow finds that the plan of campaign upun which she eriginally started to carry the goepol of eleaniinese into the most unclean parte of the town ices not been 08 offiosoIse .08 its protnotera had hoped. The drawback seems to have been that the operations wore not sulfiniently diffused ; elle forces of seep end water were not divid- ed with sufotent minuteness ; they were concentrated at half a dozen large centres, around whioh, within a stilus of a quarter of a mile, a prodigious amount of washing and scrubbing hail been (tarried on, the planes without the radtua, however, being left practically untouched. What Glasgow did was to establish a system of public bathe andwaehhouees. She erected five large buildings in as many district]] of the town. A description of one of these buildings is a description of all, The coot nf construction was from 830,000 to $50,000 on each edifloo. The total capital outlay, which includes the octet of land for those five bathe and wash - lipase buildings, has been, up to to the pre. sent, something over $000,000. The baths are open from 7 o'olook in the morning till S:30 at night, except on Sundays, when they are open for an hour and a half, from 7 a, m, till 8:30 a, m, The buildings are very sobsta:oUal• They would not be Sootcit if they were not sub etantial. The moat oonspialone object to any of the bathing-houess is the huge ewim- ming tank. One of these has a holding capacity of newly 100,000 gallons. It is 75 feet long, 40 feet broad, deep at its deep end and 3 deep at its shallow end. It sides are faced with white gl water ie always maintained able temperature, so that i well as'in the summer the bathe are mush resorted t LATHS FOR 001111 CENT Abouttbe Farm. It le a great deal easier to do work when it ought to be done than to lob it get even a day behind. Every day brings its duties If these aro neglooted, or if we aro compel- led by oiroumetanoee to postpone them, bo. morrow we must work harder' end longer to °atoll up, It pays to he careful in little things on the farm as well as anywhere else.

It can't bo caught with chaff,_ nor by siting and wait- ing for it accidentally to pass our way. He who seeks it must bait his hook with good, honest bait, and rise up early in the morn• ing to drop his line in the stream of fathful endeavor. The real wishes and needs of humanity must be known. Thera ,are very few farmers who cannot raise a few hogs with profit. It must be remembered that good pasturage is the secret of success with them. . Isere is a question which it may pay you to consider seriously. Is there any way in which you can grow 3000 worth of farm products with less labor, loos capital and better profit than by raising a tiret-class draft horse? During the past year the flocks of the United States have increased by a million and a half head, and the wool product by ten million pounds. 31 would be hard to find any farmer who has contributed to this increase but who is better o6' for having done eo. The best western Dorn weighs more a bushel in the oar than does the eastern product. The dent corns have deep ker. nele. They are not so solid as flint and the shelled grain does nob weigh so heavily, but itis loss liable for that reason to in. jure stook. It pays to give close attention to the care of a horse, cleanliness being an item which must be particularly looked after. A defective foot can ruin a horse about as quickly as any blemish. It true that a good many fent are spoiled by defective shoeing, but vastly more by not being kept Olean. In breeding horses you must not lot your expectations outrun common sense. Seine men expect a full blood sire to produce a colt after his own style or du hill, with out any regard to the fact that the mare is of no style or type whatever. This cannot be done, and the sootier you make up your mind to it the better. Here is one of the .points of profit in growing horses : From the age of two and a half years a well bred colt, properly fed and handled, should be able to do enough work about the farm to pay for his keep-' no heavy work, but light work which is just euflfcient to give him the needed esters else. Never keep an old horse on the farm' When a horse gots to be eight or nine years old dispose of it. At that age a horse will always bring nearly as much as a young one, and. sometimes more. It costa more to keep old horses, and they do not worst as' fast as young ones. In never pays to keep any sort of et oak after it begins to go down hill. The desire for good, lean pork, instead of so moth fat, has put many people to considering how the supply may be in- creased. Keep ,the young pige as long as possible on grass, feed skim intik and bran and no corn. When the bodies or frames are grown give then oatmeal and rye, ground entire, mixed with bran, putting in twice as much bran as rye. Keep up a vegetable and apple diet, and allow them bo eat all the grass they will. A little corn may be fed toward the egd. Pork made in this way will be tender and juicy. The fat is something more than lard ; it is meat, with the grain and sub- stance of meat A Ohireae Railway. China has at last ono complete railway It is the short line oonneating Tien -taut with Shan-hai•Itwan, a town in the eastern part of the great Chinese wall, where the latter runs down to the Gulf of Linu-tong, There is a certain anachronism in the as- sociation Of the "iron horse," sr, amble• mabio of our modern oeloriby of communi- cation, with the Chinese wall, which stands as the personification of obsttstubion to free intercourse.

The ab a comfort• n the winter as o S EACH: The live huge swimming tanks provided by the munietpslity accommodated in the last year 45,1,718 bathers, 'Very naturally, when the temperature of the outdoor air is high, the baths do their largest business. An outdoor tempereture of 70 degrees is considered a high one in Glasgow, and When the mercury -marks that figure the swimming ponds bring in weekly receipts of 66b0. In some cases there aro swimmng baths for women as well as for man, but ,in places where the double accommodation has non been provided certain hours are set apart for the ccs of the baths by either sex. The charge for admission to the swimming ponds is 4 cents for adults and 2 cents for persons alder 13 years of age. Packages of tickets aim be purchased at reduced rates. Swimtning clubsmay engage one of the big baths for 31.50 a night. If the club has more than forty mambas an additional charge of 2 cents is made for every person in excess of that number. In the summer the water in the great baths is changed daily ; in the winter once or twice a week. In each main building are little rooms sep- arately fitted with tubs for hot baths. The use of one of those baths oan bo had for 4 cerate, or for 8 cents, according locule ace commodation. The washhatses which are attached to the bathing buildings are worthy the atten- tion of all dwetleus in cities, not merely because the accommodations are provided by the municipality -they could bo equally well provided by private enterprise -but beoauee they show what has been done in the way of supplying a need which exists in all thickly populated places. A washing house consiats, first, of a large apartment divided by low iron partitions into a num- ber of " stalls," each stall being provided with a complete washing apparatus, sot tubs, hot and cold water baths, scrubbing - boards, soap, eta. Each stall has a sliding rack which can be pushed into a steam drying closet extending the entire length of the room. The washhouee at Townhead is the largest of the lot, containing seventy. eight stalls. The smallest house, that at G'orbals, hie fifty.eight. The washhouee facilities are placed at the disposal of the poor women of Glasgow at a charge of 4 cents an hour. Two hours is found.to be the average i1me required by each patron of the place. WASn1IOUSES NOT SCFCIOIEIITLY NCSfEROoa, Now, a notable fact in eounection with the washhoose is that while the oily pro. vides 316 "]]tells," there are only 3,0D0 families who appear to take advantage of the accommodation. Each stall is need by nine or ten women in the coarse of a week. Twenty hours a week, or less than three hours per day, is the average demand upon each stall. There enact be a reason why the municipal apparatus is not more fre- quently used. And there is a reason, The city made the mistake of building five large settbliabments instead of a great number of small ones. It is proved by experience that there aro few women having a family's waehing to manage who are inclined to carry their loads more than a quarter of a mile from their dwellings and a quarter of a mile back again. Rhes fact has led the enterprising hien of Glasgow to praje.ot a system of smell waahhiouses scattered throughou'tl:e city, perhaps ono to each tenement ldoclr• The latter scheme, how- ever, has not yet passed the visionary stage, nor is it likely to do so for awhile. Another interesting fact is that the 0,0..0 women who are known to use the places do so at leash once a week, so that the yearly cost of the family washing is estimated ab about $4 When we consider the facilities provided ib is reasonable to auppoae that the wort is done better and cheaper than it could be performed by the aitl of the primitive appliances available to the women in their own homes. Experience chows that the most antis. femoro, bleat is to say, the moat popularly used,featuras of the estabiisllments, are the swimming baths. They fulfill the expecte. Hous whim( they were built to realise. But the individual hot water baths and the waehllouse arrangements do not fulfill the expectations so far as ooucern popular use, People will go much farther for emir!) than they will go to wash their clothes, or to merely bathe their bodies. This, o t least, fs Glesgow'n experience, and it is praoliral- ly determined that no more large wash. hooses and no utero extensive ranges of individual bath tubs will be pub up at the expense of the mmtiaipelity. What further worst is done in providing accom. motletion of this sort will take the shape of small eatablisbntoubs easily aocnssiblo. Bub whether the mmticipeltby will feel Itself justified in planting a largo number of scop houses around the town or in hiring exist. hag promises for the purpose, or whether property awhera er public companies will sae tlloit way to take up the work, teemine to be semi. 'Tho lnullibipellty has debermin• ed nothing with rel;.tion to the subject. Still, what hoe been found is that lbs faolllbies ercated by the expenditure of 8010,000:mom to be taken advantage of by comparatively stnall olusters of people, ono rnight say elan(( dboric to, when we coneidsr that out of the whole population the only persons who Use the faoilitiee are 0,000 mwaeta,shers, 5,000 hot batbera and 8,000 swim. Officials assaclated with the management of the pleoes seem to think that buifdiege without, swimming baths, and provided With thirty tabs for het water bathing and sixty. three stalls for clothes washing, would ay. wage in yearly earnings etty 80,000 apiece, and that a couple of hundred molt estab• linhments might be made to pay their ex. penes if jttdioiouely situated. In other words, the mistake heretofore made has been in attaching the hot baths and the washhousee to the ewimutiitg baths, The five establishments at present ut operaelon pay more than their working expenses, but the city has to make up a slight annual deiloit of 310,000 to 310,0 ,0 to cover interest: charges, ole. This deficit decreases every year, as the patronage of the establishment increases, A OANAAIAN ENGINEER. 80r, GOodW1n'a 41.111141d K,toeess-Tete Car. er tete Powsi,lent of the society or jr:ingineete. A recent cable contained the Information that lir. George A. Goodwin, a Canadian, followinghis profession in London, had been elected president of the Soolaty of Engineers, Pita distinction is a notable one, eapeoially in view of the fact that Mr. Goodwin is not yet 40, and the honor is one which indicates not only success, bub the poseeseioo ofgood abilities and fine qualities, Some information about ]ver. Goodwln'e career will be read with interoet,not merely by his friends in Canada, but by all who are pleased in the success of Canadian brains and Canadian worth, es eoially as Mr. Goodwin has been engaged in large engin- eering operations in every quarter of the globe. The new provident of the Society of Engineers, who now residoe at 28 Victoria street, London, was born in Montreal in 1854. He left Canada at an early age, and received his education at Paris,Letdon and Manohester,cmnpieting his stndiea at Lon. don. After a five years apprenticeship he gained in '.875 a Whitworth scholarship, which at that time bad a value of £100 per annum, and was tenable for throe years, while he carried off other prizaa at the end of each year in his other examinee ons. One of his first professional engagements was in the service of Mr. JohnFowler, now Sir John Fowler, Bart., K, C. M. G., and there he filled the important position of chief inspector for all the work sent out to the NEw SOUTH WALES. Government, for whom Sir .Ioltn is the coneniting ouginoer, His next engagement wee with the Leon. F. Cadogan, of London, and the Prince de Sagan, of Paris, to carry out a series of experiments, in the appli- cation of superheated steam to locomotives, which was done oil bite G. E. railway. After that he was busied with cold air re. frigerating machinery, the first cold storage chambers at the `Victoria docks being built and fitted under his immediate supervision, as also the fitting up of several steamers with similar plant. In 1981 ho started bnsinesa as a oonenitiag and supervising engineer, which he has carried on up to date in England and ,the continent with equal aucoees. Among the important weeks he has since had charge of is the construction of the Eveleigh running sheds, a building with a semicircular rib roof of P)0 feet span, and the Eveleigh workshop, with a hip roof of 50 feet span, 150 Leet long, to say nothing of numerous railway and road bridges. A most responsible undertaking was one for the New South Wales Govern. anent, which included the ironwork for the immense A1t;ITTOI11S AT SYDNEY, sewage aqueducts made of wrought iron six feet fu diameter, with bridges for carrying them, and machinery for is cable traction station. While in Australia be constructed a 720 foot suspension bridge for a private company. Ho also superintended the rolling stock far the Smyrna and Cassaba railway, winding and hoisting engines, and air cont - pressors, with regulating valves for the rranavaal, being a patent of his oven; and having for its ohjonb an automatic gear to relieve the engine of all work without stop- ping it or varying its spend. He also acted as consulting engineer for two companies, and one of his nstable aohievemeets was the fitting ftp of steamers for carrying free - en meat from Australia and the Falkland Islands to England, the Selembrin, for the service from the Falklands, being rho long- est carrier at that time, having a capacity of 1,000 tons, equal to 30,01)0 carcases, with four cold air machines, each of 70,000 cubic feet capacity. Among his other extensive undertakings were the designing of it sea pier for the eastern shores of Asiatic Russ•a, drawing plans for an extensive installation of hydraulic power in one of the chief cities in the United Mates, and the superintend. came of the major portion of the superstruc- ture of the Liverpool overhead railway. ' Ter. Goodwin practises 09 a technical ex- pert in engineering law suits, and has load the scientific oonduot of several important oases. Ho is the author of a paper on the " itelative Merits of Working treating Machinery by Steam, Water and irllootrio• etty," which was prepared for the Chicago Engineeniug Congress, 180.1.

Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir aro dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges- tiez. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all, the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the. first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not coli tain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon rho nerves For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts. for its universal adaptability 'to the cure of all forms of nervous de- rangement.
