Are Of Hens.

Some bird fanciers have a1llrmee,
that when a hen is over two years old
she. is fit for the table, but rot valua-
bic as a layer, which is not always
correct. The age of a hen has far
less influence in determining her ex
cellence as a good layer, than the
manner in which she is kept during
our long and cold winters. The
manner in which most people keep
their hens is well calculated to make
poer layers OF them when three or
fsur years old. Hens cannot pro-
ducel eggs, any more than COW can
yield a full few of rich milk, when
exposed to the intense cold and
storms of winter. When required
to sit shivering all night on colo
roost, and to pick few kernels of
grain here, and limited supply of
coarse feed wherever itmay be found,
hens of the best breeds viii lay only
alimited number of small eggs. No
philosophical nor physiological rea-
son can be assigned why good hens,
that have not degenerated by injudi
cious breeding, will not be good lay
ers, when four or FIVE years old, if
they are well fed and protected prop
erly from the influences of wet and
cold.
By injudicious breeding-by al
lowing fowls to breed in and in from
year, to year, without making suitable
efforts every season to save the best
cocks-by requiring hens to subsist
on small allowance of feed, and to
roost in uncomfortable places, the
most effectual means are employed to
render hens barren.
There are certain periods of the
year when the very best hens for
eggs will cease laying. Seme will
not lay for several successive
months. Others stop laying few
days; when they again commence
Ali hens fail to lay during the period
of moulting. But those that are
bred well, fed well, and always pro-
tected from cold, will lay one egg
daily for more than half the number
of days in the year, until they are
four years cid At this period, their
prolific powers begin to deterioate,
SO that if kept ever so well, the mum
ber of eggs will diminish, every year
until they will not lay enough during
twelve months fer one setting.

Wolves IN ARKANsAs.-These ferocious
animals are very numerous and dangerous in
Northwestern Arkansas. The Batesville
Times says man named Moody was killed
not long since by wolves, near the line o.
White county, under the following circum.
stances: He had been bear hunting, and af
ter shooting a bear got some of the animals
blood upon his clothes; in returning home
he was chased by large pack of wolves
He turned and shot one, Drained another
with blow OF his gun, and killed third
with his knife. Nevertheless, the hungry
pack surrounded the unfortunate hunter, and
attacked him with such lerceness that lie
was torn 10 pieces in few moments. The
mail carrier on the route from Clinton to
Batesvile was chased by pack Of wolves
recently, and owed his safety solely to the
speed of bis horse.

an artist of 10 mean distinction. He has
been for some time past resident of Calfor'
mia, and is SO we'll pleased with Mclean man
that he wants to be an adopted brother. Ac'
cordingly he, this morning, applied to Judge
Hoffman to be made citizen of this Repub,
lie. The question as to bis eligibility to be-
come an American citizen is novel one.
'All free white male citizens Of the age of
twenty one years, and upwards, are certainly
eligible to American citizenship, but wbeth'
er the Mongolian race can justly claim to be
classed with white citizens is controverted
point. Judge Hoffman set counsel to work
to study the Civil Rights bill and the law
bearing on the case, before granting or re-
jecting Johns application to join the great
American family"

descending, he started up another one few
yards off. This strange proceeding was con-
tinued at least dozen times, the country
man climbing and descending one tree after
another for nearly quarter ola mile. The

The FUTURE OF THE NEGRO RAoE.-The
jackson Clarion prints the official census re-
ports that have been returned from fortyfour
g, mites in Mississippi for the year 1896.
the figures show that the white population
10 those counties has decreased 6,799 since
1850, and the black population, 45,205.
Ibis shows that the decrease of the negro
population Of that State has not been as
large as has been reported and believed. Il
Is, however, sufficiently large to show that
Ine negro race will die out rapidly in this
country.

their action, but during sleep they are act

the teeth. Therefore, before retireing, is
the proper time to clean them, if done only
once in day.
