Quality Of Eggs.

A gentleman once demonstrated with
his market-woman on the high price of
her eggs, to which she replied: Eggs
is eggs nowadays, would have you
know" meaning that they were scarce.
81 am very glad to know it," said the
gentleman, for the last l bought of you
were chickens"
Eggs are eggs, whatever may be the
price, but there is difference in the
quality even of fresh eggs. They are
all manufactured alike, but they are not
all made of the same material, and hence
the difference. 1t is well-established
fact that the food of fowls affects the taste
of the egg as well as the taste of their
flesh. The flesh of water fowls that
live on fish has fishy flavor, and their
eggs partake of the same. So the odor
and flavor of onions may be detected in
the eggs of barn-yard fowls, and it does
not always require detective to per-
ceive it. All this might be inferred from
the slightest knowledge of animal physi-
ology, and it is proved by actual expert
ence.
The quality of eggs cannot be ascer-
tanned in the market, excepting as to
whether they are fresh or added; the
proof is the same as in the case of pud-
ding-it is in the eating. But those who
keep fowls and have their eggs laid to
order may know beforehand what
is to be their quality. If you have
the right kind of fowls it de-
ponds largely on their food. Fowls
should be kept in a clean, wholesome
place. They should have clean food to
eat and only clean water to drink. They
should not be allowed to live on the
dung hill, but should have plenty of good
and wholesome food. Corn and wheat
are good enough for staple diet. Buck
wheat will not furnish as rich eggs as
either of these. Fowls should have some
kind of green food. In summer they
gather it for themselves when they run
at large; in winter it should be provided
for them. Cabbage and other vegetables
should be laid up expressly for their use
in the winter season. In order to ensure
their laying freely they require some
kind of animal food. In summer they
gather it by catching grasshoppers and
various kinds of insects, but in winter
they have no such resource. Refuse
pieces of meat, liver, etc., may be OBJ
tanned at the butchers, and scraps Of
meat from the table should be given
them.
But whatever they feed on, care should
be taken to have it clearly. 1t is well
worth the experiment to try different
kinds of food, and then test the quality
of the eggs. Great satisfaction will be
found in the result Of good care and clean
feeding.--M Y. Observer.

Potash is necessary to successful
potato growing. The easiest and best
way of supplying it is in the form of

AT the recent meeting Of the West
ern New York Horticultural Society at
Rochester, the reason for the failure of
the apple crop of 1882 was summarized
to be the bad weather in the spring, the
apple curculio, the drought of the pre-
vious year and the severe wind and
hailstorms which blighted the blossoms
in some sections. These would appear
to be sufficient reasons.
Deep drains are best because they
secure the slow percolation of the water,
giving the soil chance to take up or
absorb the nutritive properties which in
the other case would 60 directly into the
drain and be lost. The drain first car
ries off the very cold water of the sub
soil, and the warmer surplus moisture
from above taking its place, warns the
land and hence offers large area for
the roots Of the crops to amplify and
thus gather up greater stores of plant
food. Chicago Journal.

Now and Then.

In 1916 one bushel Of corn would buy
one pound of nails. In 1883 one bushel
of corn will buy fifteen pounds Of nails.
In 1916 it took from twenty to thirty
dozen of eggs to buy one bushel of salt.
In 1888 one dozen of eggs will do the
same thing. In 1916 it required sixty.
four bushels of barley to buy one yard
of broadcloth. In 1883 five bushels will
do the business. In 1916 it required one
bushel of wheat to purchase one yard Of
calico. In 1883 one bushel of wheat will
purchase thirty-five yards OF better ar
ticle. In 1916 pair of wooden blankets
cost as much as a COW. In 1883 cow
will buy from six to twenty, superior in
every way.-Prairie Farmer.

"L0V1 rs LIFE, AND LIFE rs

~3lany waters cannot quench love, neither

ssYouth "a folly" cried the sage;
"A struggle 10 our middle age;
hitter regrets MI up the page;
And this" he sighed, "is life."
The man who finds existence such
A weary struggling overmuch
Has never felt the magic touch
Which love can give to lite.
Another says that from life's cup
In early youth we nectar sup,
But that when this has been quaffed up
A nauseous draught is life.
Just drop into your cup, dear friend,
A little love, and then depend,
True love, which loveth till the end,

A Dynamite Story

In 1865 prisoner, who was con-

little confidence in the mine, and when

pounds of nitro, glycerinc. Profoundly
Ignorant of the nature and fell dcstruc-

from the care with which he had always
seen it served out in the mines, that it
was of considerable value, he clung to

weeks, and probably the little can was
knocked about by careless mariners,

How Colds are Taken.

A person III good health, with fair
play, says The Lancet, easily rcsists
cold. But when the health flags little,
and liberties are taken with the stomach,
or the nervous system, chill is easily
taken, and according to the weak spot of
the individual, assumes the form of
cold, or pneumonia, or, it may be, jalm-
dice. OF all causes of "cold," probably
fatigue is one of the most efficient. A
jndcd man coming home at night from q
long days work, growing youth losing

to chill-taking; very hot rooms, soft

"Lcgial lrton and judicial Interpretation
have already gone long way toward inn

strength of the marriage relation. If
this bill should become q law marriage
in Pennsylvania would be little more
than q temporary contract, of the most
serious rights and solemn duties of which
the parties might relieve themselves at
their mutual pleasure. They arc aban-
doned by this bill to the full effects Of

A Naval Cadets Trouble.

rhe most unfortunate case of klepto-
mania has been brought to light at the
Naval Academy, Annapolis, which may
result in the ultimate dismissal of one of
the I" star members Of tho first class.
1t appears that for some time past the
cadets have been missing from their
rooms articles Of wearing apparel, trink.
cts, etc. 1t was supposed that they
had been stolen by some Of tho colored
employees, and some had even been dis
charged on this account. But lately
suspicion fell upon Cadet Bowman, of
Michigan, member of the graduating
class, which was promptly reported to
the authorities. 1t was not deemed ex-
pedlent to act, however, without further
proof, and III tho meantime quiet watch
was instituted. 1t was asccrtained that
box had been taken from Cadet Bow
mans room in surreptitiOus manner.
An orde ly was dispatched to the OK
press Office, where it was carried, and
the box was returned to the Academy
under authority of the commandant of
cadets. 1t WAS opened in the presence
| of Licutcnants Potter, Manney, Green
and Cadet Bowman, and the latter did
not deny that some of the contents did
not belong to him in fact. the strange

that his mind was affected Bowman
was regulated to the hospital for further
orders. He is bright young man
standing No. 3 in the first class, and
