Dark BrnhI,lns.

This is one Of my favorite varieties,
and consider them unsurpassed fol
all purposes. The great demand fol-
them is an indication of the high rank
they hold among other varieties. They
are chiefly remarkable for their size,
beauty of form and feather, excellent
flesh, egg producing, extreme hardness
and early maturing, being also better
foragers than any other of the large
breeds.
Their color is such that it is not soiled
by the dust and smoke of the town,
and they bear confinement we'll, and
can be fenced as easilyas pig. Being
SO extremely hardy and quiet, they cost
little more than common fowls to keep,
and pay better in eggs during winter, and
asa marketfowl. Itbeing so we'll adapt
Ell to the farm as we'll rs city quarters,
with it's many estimable qualities, rem
ders this amost desirable breed.

How to Keep Eggs Fresh.

My plan for the past eight years has
been as follows: They are gathered
every day. and kept in my house, in n
box OF kiln-dricd sawdust which is about
one inch thick. They may be kept on
the end or flat, and care must be taken
to turn them over at least three times a
week: Impregnated eggs will hatch
we'll if kept in this way, even if they be
two months old. I now have seven
chicks (from nine eggs which were kept
rs abov>, and I am positive they were
over five weeks old when put under the
hen. 1t is necessary to be careful in
turning them over that they do not get
any sudden jar, rs that ofttimes pre-
vents their hatching.-Cor. Rural New

AT the annual meeting of the Agricul-
t"ral Associations paper was read upo,,
growing grass. In theliscussion which,
followed it was remarked that farmers
should be careful to SOW together only
those grasses which ripen at the same
tune. This is mistaken idea. The
chief reason why variety of grasses
should not be sown is, that there may
be constant succession of growth.
The weakest point of our meadows is
that the grass ripens, fades and sus-
ponds growth for the season, leaving a
brown, withercd or bare surface. If
there were 4 succession of consecutively
ripcning grasses, there would be con-
tlnued grecnncss and verlure, and if
the pastures were only not over-stocked,
this would be rs great an approach rs
We can make with our peculiar climate
toward permanently green meadow or
pasture. But if all grasses ripen ut
once, we may as we'll continue to grow
one single good grass, as several good
and bad ones.

adverse to coming up to New York. This is the

charging Is BY SURF boats which take the cotton

manner in which she has OFT displayed her vocal

complaint Of citizens who have been annoyed by
the orgies held in the saloon. Captain Allalre
