In England cars are only lioènsed to carry a certaiu number of people, and any infringement of the luw would bring about a rovocütion ot' the license. Overcrowding cars in this country is a source of great inoonvenieuce to passengere and cruel to the poor animáis pulling the cars. Fowls can be fattened well in a fortnight if they are cooped up where they can obtain gravel and linie and are fed on scalded corn-meal, given three times a day, while ears of corn aro always at hand. For drink, skimmed milk is vtry desirable, aud if waruied a little will ba drank with eagerness. Pulverized charcoal, kept either in their boxes or mixed with thfcir feed, willl materially assist the fattening procesa.
