Loss of feathers in fowls probably proceeds
from deficient or unclean busting arrange
ments. Fowls must have dust baths, and a
pound of sulphur now and then mixed with
the rubble or sand is excellent for keeping the
feathers in good order. A few grains of car.

the preservation of plumage. Food without

Aha! We thought it about time for that
story about mummy wheat to come to the
front again, and here 1t is.-told by a London
correspondent 10 an American paper: when
the French troops, led by Bonaparte, in 1898,
invaded Egypt, they were accompanied by
many learned ntlquarlanS-BalZaC ana others
who examined with wondering eyes that
wonderful magazine Of wonders left Us by
men who lived In that valley before and after
the flood of Noah. Amongst other wonders
that astOnished they came upon mummy in
the Royal tomb OF the great Pyramid who
held within his cleDched fist handful OF the
famed Egyptian wheat of antiquity. The
grains were perfectly sound. The SaCGltS had
this handful sOwed on the earth, and from shat
handful there grew up an elghty-fold crop Of
beautiful, plump wheat. This was sowed
again, and it products again and again sOwed,
In the course of very few years the seed null
tiplied and became famous IN the estimation
of farmers. From thai handful has now IN
creased the regular sowiBgs and reapings Of
Egyptian wheat fine, plump, heavy gram,
rich IN -four" BY the way. did any one ever
hear of the origin OF the celebrated Nicaragua
wheat? No? Well, some years ago when
exploring the ruins in Yucatan an American
found some bricks in the remains of an old
temple which had been a huary rum when
Rameses |. was sprightl. youth. Embed
ded in the brick the American anIquary
found wheat straw which had been used in
making the bricks ana detected few grains
of wheat also embedded therein. He planted
the bricks, and the result WAS f,N heads of
wheat Of surprising hsrdr ess and stony quail

When smoking hams something to burn a

prolonged Wood will burn slower if similar
