TABLE POULTRY.

The chicken question presents an anoma-
lous condition in this country. Wherever
We go, Nnrth, South or anywhere. we find
farmers, merchants. mechanics. and some
times even sailors breeding poultry, contend
ing at fairs. advertising through the papers
and raising general hue and cry in behalf
of their pets, and all on account of nothing
on earth but the feathers. Que would think
from all the fuss made that those people
were breeding ostricIes instead Of chickens;
that feathers were of more value In the mar
ket than flesh; that the American people
preferred to wear feathers on their bodies
rather than put flesl, in their stOmach>
Nothing finds favor with these chicken fan
ciers except the su-caled blooded or thor
oughbred fowls that are simply bred to the
tta' her. The size OF the Brahma is sacri-
feed 10 the correctness OF the tail and hackle
markings. The Dorking has lost his breast
~ tile struggle to preserve the flesh color of
the legs and the uniformity OF the feather
markings. How tar this craze has gone in
England we are not informed, but we know
some of the best table fowls known to tile
trade were originated there.
In France not only are breeds OF fine ta-
ble fowls originated. but. according to all
reports. they are still bred with an eve sin-
glv to table qualities; and. not only this.
but methods OF feeling to the end Of quick
maturity, economy of flesh production and
perfection OF flesh quality are closely prac
ticed and experimental with. The French
seem to understand this question as a prac-
tical one, and go AT it in a way to make
fowls not only pleasure to breed, but a
profit to handle. Chicken food that il vast
ed by the ton in this country, rs dead horses
stale bread, etc. is carefully llu~banded and
turned 10 the finest Kind of chicken flesh il,
France. Our people are so feartully quealn-
i>h about such things, that. while they can
stand and see the hen eat worms and ear
rion at her own sweet will aud chop her

they will NOT hear of such a thing as ieed-

failure when they attempt 10 raise fowls for

other there seems TO be no profit. 1t looks
as though the American character was built

COMETS AND Sun SPOTS.

According to Professor Hastings, Of the Johns
Uonkins University, there Is one thing of SPECIAL
interest in the comet now visible Just before sun
rise Professor Boss, of the Dudley ODserya-
tory nj Albany, has been led to PROFOUND the
theory that. owing TO essential Tesemblances IN
the orbits, the comets OF 1915, oil oSO ana tlhs
one are identical " neither he is correct or
NOT remains to be proved by further observa-
tions and elaborate calculations, but Whatever
Professor Boss proposes Is sure TO ne receINeu
with the most respectful consideration Dy All
Astronomers II his theory Is sound, saws IFo-
lessor hastings, we have evidence OF most
extraordinary resistance to the motion OF the
comet somewhere in Its course, and IL Is clear
that the comet cannot long escape It's ultimate
fate of falling into the sun. Is there not some
evidence that this fate has IN part already
come upon itP Let rs see There are now on
the sun a number of enormous spots WIllch, on
the 18th, were on that portion OF the sun
nearest the comet at its nearest approach. Inc
formation of a sun spot Is attended with enor-
nous disturbances in the phOtosphele, ana, III
all probability, any great disturbance III the
ph1tosphere would betray itself In the torma-
ton OF spots. The decay OF comet is known
70 produce "a stream of meteois and II fFo-
fessOr Boss is right, this comet has long since
begun to decay, for it is no new comet 70 our
system and no comet can belong to us without
loss of its integrity. Nothing, then, can be
more natural than to conclude that certain
OUTLYING fragments of the swarm of meteoTs
which make up the come, have actually come
within the distance of the radius of the sun,
and that the extraordinary spots are in reality
connected with the comet
