EGG EATING BY PULLETs.-As q gen.
cral thing, this habit is introduced by
the accidental breaking Of an egg. 1t
may be induced by throwing egg shells
from the kitchen into the poultry yard !;
they should be broken into small pieces
before giving them to fowls. Some
times eggs crack by freezing in cold
weather, and thus expose Il portion Of
their contents. Eggs arc very delicious
morscls to hens. If one fowl acquires
this habit, all the others in tho same
flock will soon learn it too, if confined
where they see what is going on; and
they always make Il rush ut whatever
one Of their fellow Is eating. The habit
is one V. ry hard to krcak; killing the
whole flock seems to be a desperate
resort; but if the brood Is not especially
valuable, and the flock Il small one, is
is really the best possible method saving
time and money In he end, The fol-
lowing method may be tried first, how,
ever: Let the fowls have free range in
summer, or draw them or to 4 locality
at some Ii tie distance from the nests
in winter, and let the nests be SO cov-
cred as to be quite dark, and prevent
the laying hens from seeing the eggs.
liens will not stay in IL dark nook to
scratch and peek, although they prefer
Il rather dark place to lay in. Scatter
wheat screenings md pounded chand-
iCr'a scraps, or other attractive food
among straw, or some such light stuff,
to induce them to spend their time
scratching for it. Their visits to the
nests will then be only OH the legiti-
mate business of laying. If low Is have
an unrestricted range, the insects and
other attractions OF the fields will
~ nia
scratching-placo in summer; but In
rough, wet weather, or in winter, the
fowls must be employed indoors to
prevent forming bad habits, or TO cure
them if already formed. All the grain
remaining at the scratching place &C
night very likely viii be dcVourcti by
rats anu mice. However, by cX-
crcising Il modcagU2 degree of calcu-
lati0u, one will coutrivc TO throw down
Just enough i'll The morning TO last till

remainder Of the days allowance can
