POULTRY—AND THE BUTCHER. The British Consul at New Orleans reports' a curious outcome of the rapid riso in the cost of living throughout the United States. Families with limited incomes have, ho says, to look around to see how they can Teuuce their household expenses. The old way of several couples joining together and taking a house between them and tlius conducting a sort of joint-stock housekeeping establishment does not work well in this semi-tropical climate, as the damp heat leads to friction amongst the occupants. The keeping of poultry in sufficient numbers to reduce the butcher's bill is found to be a step in the right direction, and nearly every backyard in tho town is turned -into a poultry farm. The new industry is a scricus rival to some of the vested interests. The cold storago plants have had to get rid of their stale eggs at any price, as tho family trade is closed to them. The Meat Trust, too" must be feeling the competition. One waits now to hear that the example of NeiV Orleans is being followed, and that the colza bean is biing successfully grown on the roofs of tho New York tenements and the inhabitants supplying themselves with oil, to the dismay of Mr. Rockefeller.
