Abont Eggs.

A curious point of inquiry among
biologists has been, for u long time, how
many eggs there are in the ovary of hen.
To determine this, German naturalist a
short time since instituted some careful in
vestigations, the result of which showed
the ovary of a hen to contain about 600
embryo eggs. He also ascertained that
some twenty of these are matured the first
year, aboat 100 during the second year,
1876 during the third, ia during the fourth,
and during the fifth, sixth, seventh, and
eighth years the number decreases by
twenty annually ; it consequently following
that, after the fourth, or at most the fifth
year, hens are no longer profitable as layers,
it may be in exceptionable instances. Some
interesting experiments were also made a
short time since in Germany to determine
the comparative fecundity of ducks and
hens-that is, from which of the two the
larger number of eggs could be obtain
ed in the same time. For this purpose
three hens and three ducks were selected,
hatched in February and nourished with
suitable food. The following autumn the
ducks had laid 225 eggs, while the hens
laid none. in the next February the laying
season began again with the ducks and con-
tinued uninterruptedy till August. They
showed no inclination to set, but became
very thin, although they afterwards fatted
up somewhat. The total number of eggs
laid by the hens amounted to 2j8, or SO
eggs each, and 393, or l3l each for the
were rather longer than those of the ducks
were rather smaller than those of the hens,
yet they proved to be decidedly superior in
nutritive material. so that the superiority
in productiveness was decidedly with the
ducks. In regard to the means or possi-
bility of deciding the sex of eggs, much
difference of opinion exists. NJ. Genin in
Il communication to the French academy
of sciences, on this subject states that he is
now able, after having investigated tho
matter carefully for several years to state
that all eggs containing the germ Of males
have wrinkles on their smaller ends, while
female eggs are smooth at the extremities.

ShaIl We Feed Wheatl

Fifty years ago there lived along the Mo-
hawk River class of men who were fa-
nous for their fine and valuable horses.
Wheat in those days bore but small price
compared with the price OF these times, but
so were corn and oats very low and these
men of the Mohawk country were in tho
habit Of feeding wheat when they wished
to put their favorite horses into the best
possible condition. They formed correct
estimate of its value from actual experience.
There is one caution, perhaps, proper; the
wheat should be coarsely ground or soaked
for sufficient time in water to so soften
the kernels as to bring them within the
reach of the digestive powers of the ami
mails stomachs IL something Of this kind
is not done, it will be found that consid-
cradle portion of the grain will passthrough
the animals undigested. If the newspaper
reports are true as to the magnitude OF this
years wheat crop, economy will require
that in many cases it should enter largely
into the food of animals in those sections
where the corn crop has proved TO be very
light. mH

Large Cheese.

An Ohio paper announces that monster
cheese is to be made in that State for
exhibition at the Philadelphia Centennial.
IL is to weigh fourteen tons, and will meas
ure thirteen feet in diameter and eleven
feet in thickness. 1t will be made in May,
1876. II is becoming the custom in various
localities abroad to cut up large cheese
for the Christmas market, and in England
the advent of big eheeAes from this country
is looked for with interest. The Inman
steamer which left New York fortnight
ago took out a number weighing from 300
ito 900 pounds each, one weighing over l.
900 pounds, and one weighing 2,2OO pounds.
The make and cure are said to be perfect.
The art Of making these large cheeses ap-
pears TO be we'll understood in thiscountry.

WASHINGTON, July Sl.--Despite the
action of the president in refusing tC
send troops to Nicksburg, the execu,
tive powers of the state still persist in
the statement that the public peace is
endangered.
Governor Ames, who has been away
from his post, has returned. To-day he
telegraphed to President Grant reiter-
ating, in the main, the apprehensions
set forth in the kilograms and mail adj
vices, previously forwarded by Lieu
tenant Governor Davis. He makes nc
formal demand for troops, butthe tenor
of his dispatch is such as to intimate
that he desires federal troops to be
called to Vicksburg on election day.
In the meantime almost every
mail brings protests from reputable
citizens of Vicksburg denouncing the
action of the executive officials as I'M
warranted and without cause other than
to intimidate voters. A dispatch was
received to-day and forwarded to Presi.
dent Grant, but owing to the close of
the department. Yesterday no reply had
been received. The correspondence
and dispatches OH the subject will be
made public by the war department
after the president has rendered u
final decision as to what course he
will pursue in the matter. They are
voluminous.
