CONCERNING EGGS.

The prevailing high price of eggs
dnring the past year or two shows
that there has been no over produc-
ton of eggs, certainly not of those
which are marketed in strictly fresh
condition. Every farmer can make a
small flock of hens a source of profit
with reasonable care and outlay. To
secure the highest prices in the mar
ket where eggs are sold on their mer-
its, the matter of feeding the fowl is
one of considerable Importance.
Wheat or wheat screenings and bar
ley are the best grain food for the
chief supply. Corn should be given
in moderate quantities only, on ac-
count of its tendency to fatten. Oats
are good grain for a change, but
they contain too much husk to be a
favorite food with poultry. Sorghum
seed IS an excellent food; so is milk,
even skim milk, sweet or sour, mixed
with wheat bran. Green vegetables
of all sorts are desirable through the
fall and winter. Many poultry men
have successfully fed their fowls with
ensilage as a substitute for other veg
etable food. Fowls fed largely on
buckwheat produce inferior eggs, Of
thin, white contents.
In the matter of packing eggs for
market much carelessness is exercised.
The shell of the egg is of nature so
porous as to be easily deteriorated
by contact with decaying or pungent
substances. Eggs packed in sawdust
will certainly taste of the packing ma
terial. A few dozen eggs packed in
resinous product and forwarded 4
few miles by express were rendered
almost worthless in two hours by such
exposure. Similar injury is inflicted
upon eggs by the use of musty hay
or straw in packages. Of course
sweet hay or straw finely chopped
are unobjectiOnable.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1883-12-24

it is best to sell at the prices which
they choose to offer; and OCCASION
ally real farmer has heard this adj
vice so often that he repeats it, par
rot like, for the benefit of his brother
farmers. But why is farmer adj
vised to sell his produce at the first
price made by others, more than a
merchant is advised to sell his goods
at price fixed by his customers? If
no farmer sold his products at a low
price, no one could buy them at a
low price. We have advised farm
ers not to sell good table potatoes
for less than fifty cents a bushel,
which is as low price as they can
be raised for with profit. If they do
not bring at least fifty cents, feed
them to live stock rather than sell.
If no one sells bushel of potatoes
for less than fifty cents, no one could
buy bushel for less. If any one
thinks that farm products are sold
from first hands too high, let him be-
come a producer himself. The fact
is farmers are too ready to sell their
product at the first opportunity, a
large class of them in the aggregate
needing to realize the money for
their crops as soon as possible, thus
tending to establish low prices.

DRYING THE COWS.

In response to the question "When
should cows 90 dry" the Dairy
saws: "There is such a thing as
burning a candle at both ends. One
may easily do this in the dairy, and
while the ''good easy man" thinks he
is making a good deal of light at the
same cost, suddenly his candle may
90 out. This kind of thing may go
on when one milks the cows up to
the time of calving or near it, and
even encourages it by feeding for
that end But then it may not. And
it is the dairyman's business to know
all about it, and not take any gener-
al rule for his guide. There is no
rule without a multitude of excep-
tons and these are as numerous as
times, places, and circumstances
and as circumstances alter cases, so
the reply to the question we have put
above depends upon circumstances.
There are cows that Will not 90
dry, but will milk from calf to calf.
Is the dairyman to worry himself
and the COW in useless defiance of
her natural habit? By no means. He
must suit his case to the circumstan-
ces, and reduce the milk yield as
much as possible by milking once a
day perhaps, and compensate the
COW for her extra burden, by giving
her more feed up to a safe limit.
What this limit may be depends
wholly on the ability of the COW to
BEAUTIFULLY digest and dispose of the
food. And no one but the intelli-
gent owner can say what this limit
may be, for it will vary, as COWS
vary, and no two COWS are precisely
alike. AS long as ne COW is in
thriving condition, not losing flesh
or maki-g fat, the limit is reached.
But, as a rule, to be contracted
and expanded judiciously and safe
ly, it might be said that COW
should be dried off six weeks before
she Is due to calye. That up to that
time she should be literally fed in
the usual manner; that henceforth
her food should be curtailed, or even
changed to dry hay; and If her con-
dition is reduced somewhat, so much
the better. 1t will make it safer for
her and the calf This milking may
be done once day, or not wholly
completed, leaving little in the I'D
der. We have even taken little
milk several times day from COW
in this condition, with the effect of
rapidly drying the udder. But it is a
dangerous thing, and one to be
avoided, to leave any considerable
amount of milk in cows udder at
this time.

A BAD SIGN.

There are few more certain ev-
licences of the deterioration of a
mans moral nature than the increas-
ing tolerance with which he views
low standards of conduct, as held by
others in that sphere of society in
which bis lot is cast. Honesty nat
urally revolts from dishonesty, puri-
ty from impurity, virtue from vice,
and although goodness and mercy
are tolerant of the sinner as Il per-
son, they are never tolerant of the
sin. That world-wear which brings
man to look contentedly, or even
with pleasure. upon forms of evil in
others which before would at once
have reused within him the feeling
of indignation at the wrong and of
pity for the offender, is very far from
being thing to be proud of; for it
reveals wrongful acceptance of
things as they are, and growing
disbelief in man and in the redeem
inc power of Him who has made
man. There are many hateful things
in the conventionalisms which rule in
human society; but there is none
which is more hateful than that which
accepts evil as necessary evil, and is
willing to make the best Cor the
worsD of it as it is. What can be
said of the moral worth of commu-
nifty in which it can still be matter
of question whether virtue or honesty
is a possibility? And, above all,
what can be said of christian who
repeats approvingly the cynical ques-
ton of the profigate? To be so toll
Grant of evil that contact with II
evokes no feeling of antagonism, is
sure evidence of moral and spiritual
danger; to be SO tolerant of it as tc
| believe that little but evil exists, Oh
is to be looked for, is a certain sigr
of accomplished moral degradation

How Watch Cases are Made.

In 1875, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the James Boss Gold Watch Case
Now over fue hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. The rea-
son of this increase is this: In the James
Boss Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid gold while the re-
mainder, which only lends strength to the
case, is of stronger metal than gold,
giving gold where gold is needed, and
strong, elastic metal where strength and
elasticity are needed, combination pro-
ducing watch case better than solid gold
and at oNE-HALF the cost. ~ ,...
Over 100000 of these cases K x
have been sold, and every jeweler in the
country can testify to their quality and
merit.
E. w. Marsh of the Democrat, bought Jas. Boss
Gold Watch case Is years ago, and carried it until
snort tune ago when purchased it, and sold it to
customer. The case showed no signs of wear except
that natural to any case and am satisfied can be
safely guaranteed for at least ten years have
sold the James Boss GodW atch Case for many years
and the parties who bought the first are carry
ing them to-day well satisfied as though thew had
bought solid gold case costing twice the money
regard them the only cases of this kind ieWeler
should sell who desires to give his customers the
worth OF their money or values his reputation.
