obtain the very largest profit from brah-
mas, and is willing to work for it, we
should say, raise enough chickens every
year to replace all the old fowls. We
have kept Brahmas long enough to feel
warranted in saying that they can be
kept at work about all the time after
they are six months old till they are
eighteen months old. We allow six

eleven to twelve months work, attel
which they should be turned OF as
dressed poultry. Hatched Fesblary

The sewing machine monopolist are
beseiginy Congress again. A strong eff
for, is to be made at this session to pro-
cure the extension OF certain patents
ABOUT expiring. We hope no extension
will be granted. Congress has tossered
these monopolies long enough. and as a
matter of Justice to the great body OF
people The sewing machine business
should be thrown open to competition.
An ordinary family sewing mechine does
not cost the manufacturer more than ten
dollars. vet he sells it to his agents for
forty. and it is retailed for seventyflve
dollars. Sucn profits are extortionate,
and Congress should wipe them out.
