Poultry Notes.
EGGS.


A good egg is made up Of ten parts
she'll, sixty parts white, and thirty parts
yolk. The white of an egg contains eigh-
ty-six per cent. of water, the yolk hfty-two
per cent. The average weight OF an egg Il
two ounces.
CoLB IN THE THROAT.
This disease is manifest IN fowls Dy
noise, as If some substance had stuck IN
the throat phlegm is present IN the throat
The following remedy is highly recon-
| mended: A tablespoonful OF water con-
tanning two drops Of the tincture OF aeon,
\ ite. given two or three times day, ana
plenty of fresh water to drink.
BUYING EGGS.
There are many reasons why people de-
sire to buy eggs instead of fowls; the
principal one is, the great difference IN the
cost of first class birds and their eggs.
The money necessary to purchase snch
fowls cannot be spared, and stan may be
gained by purchasing eggs, with much less
money.
Mr.. WILLIAMS, gentleman OF great ex-
perience, says, people expect greater re-
suits than they should in purchasing eggs
for Matching. The breeder, however much
experience he may have, may not make up
his breeding pens as they should be, and
hence every bird may not be perfect.
HEN SEsr.
Hens nest should be made by placing in
the bottom of the nest basket or box, cut
turf, and a shovelful Of dry earth or ashes;
on this place short straw, first following
out the earth in shape of a nest a more
even temperature is obtained for the eggg
than in straw alone. Such nests are par
ticularly adapted for early setting when
the weather is cold.
SEX OF EGGS
1t is frequently asserted that the sex OF
eggs can be determined by the shape OF the
egg, the position of the air cell, the curl or
twist at ihe small end. etc. these tesla
have been improved by careful experi-
ments; and upon the best authority We as
| sert that all such ideas and theories are ef-
roneous and absurd.-Pouffry Gazeffa

Golden Words from a Merchant.

We all want to know how good aud
strong men have made their ways in
the world. They were once boys like
you. What steps did they take to be-
come true men? An eminent mer-
chant in New York, Mr.. Jonathan
SturRis, tells US a little of his exper-
rience, which am sure every DOy will
be glad to hear about.
"One of my first lessons, said Mr..
Sturgis, twas in 1913, when l was
eleven years old. My grandfather had
fine flock of sheep, which were care
fully tended during the war of that day.
L was the shepherd boy, and my busi-
ness was to watch the sheep in the
fields. A boy who was more fond of
me, but left the work to me, while he
lay under the trees and read. l did
not like that, and finally went to my
grandfather and complained of it. /
shall never forget the kind smile of the
old gentleman as he said:
"'Never mind, Jonathan, my boy !;
II you watch the sheep, you will have
the sheep"
"What does grandfather mean by
hat? l said to myself. don't expect
to have the sheep. My desires were
moderate, and fine buck was worth q
thousand dollars. / could not exactly
make out in my mind what it was, but
I had great cOnfidedce in him, for he
was q judge, and had been to Congress
in WashingtOn's time; so l concluded
it was all right, and / went back con-
tentedly to the sheep. After got into
the field, could lot keep his words
out of my head. Then / thought of
Sundays lesson-'Thou hast been
faithful over few things. Twill make

to see through it. Never you mind

and you will have your reward

ter. / came to the city as q clerk to
the late Lyman Reed. A merchant
from Ohio, who knew me, came to buy
goods, and said: Make yourself so use
full that they cannot do without you.
that of my grandfather.
"Well, / worked upon these two
ideas until Mr.. Reed offered mea part
nership in the business. The first
morning after the partnership was
made known, Mr.. james Greery, the
old tea-merchant, called to congratulate
me, and said You are all right now.

you-be careful who you walk the
streets with That was lesson num-
Der three.
And what valuable lessons they are
Fidelity in little things; do your
best for your employer; carefulness
about your associates. Let every
boy take these lessons home, and study
them well. They are the foundation
stones of character and of honorable
success.

Crew.
New YoRK. Nov. 90.-David North, OF Ron

Mark Anthony, went crazy the first day. Will

board, and Immediately grabbed by a shark.
BY almost miracle, the remaining four
