I've loved another angel form, dear Rose,

How TO PRoDucE EGGs.-"J II.
E." writes to the Prairie Farmer ):
GA hen if a perfect machine, which, if
cared for as it should be, being kept
in comfortable quarters and fed with
care, will produce eggs in spite of
itself. If, as rule, hon is kept
clean (for nothing enjoys cleanliness
more than a hcn) and furnished sup
ply of grain, meat, and vegetables,
she will produce the eggs which she
has got to lay or die. Take away the
flesh and vegetables and small grain,
and give corn and water alone, and
your hens will cease to lay and become
fat. Corn in itself has less of the pro-
perties which make the egg than any
of the smaller grains which we raise.
Rice, wheat, barley, and buckwheat
arc better for eggs.
