HOW TO CURE EGG EATING.

Sometimes the habit is formed by the
carelessness of the kitchen maid, or house
keeper, in throwing the eeg-sheils into
the pail and giving them with the other
waste to the hens. This should never
be done, if you want the hens to respect
their own eggs. Understanding the cause
of this unthrifty habit, it is not very dill
ficult to provide remedy. From a re-
cent experience we have found that the
habit is very much broken by an abund-
ant supply Of crushed shells. IL had
grown so bad in flock Of twenty Light
Brahmas, owing to neglect OF this ration
tina. they devoured every egg, without
the closest watching. at the cackle OF ev.
cry laying hen. Giving the shells every
morning, the craving ceased, and we
found, the eggs remaining in the nests
undisturbed. As an assistant TO this
remedy, we manufactured an egg-trap
from a common nest box This is so
simple that any one accustomed to the
use of tools can make il in an hour or
two. A slight inclination Of the board
upon which the nest-egg is fastened will
cause the new-laid egg to roll away from
under the hen. beyond her reach, as soon
as it is dropped. The rear board has
the same inclination toward the center
and projects over tie other board far
enough TO protect the egg when 1t has
rolled away. The space between the
the boards is Just wide enough to give
free passage to the eggs. The egg-box
may be lined with handful Of sawdust,
or chaff, to protect the shells from crack
ing. II the back board be furnished
with hinges, it en- be used as lid, 10
allow of the removal Of the eggs. Ii is q
complete egg trap, and with the oyster
shells, in our case abated the nuisance Of
egg eating. Many think, that when a
hen has con,crAted the habit of egg-est-
ing. the shortest way is the best, and in
stead Of eating she is put in a condition
to be eaten. But good layer is too VAL
liable to be given up without an effort TO
reform her bad habit, often acquired
through the negligence Of the owner.
The egg-,rsp works admirably, and Sc
cures the end desired BY placing it out Of
the power Of the hen to do mischief

THE MIDGET SHEEP.

The very smallest Of all the kinds OF
sheep is the tiny Breton sheep. 1t is toe
small to be very profitable to raise; for,
Of course, it cannot have much wool, and
as for eating, why, a hungry man could
almost eat whole one at a meal. 1t is
so small when full. grown that it car
hide behind good sized bucket. II
takes its name from the particular part
OF France where it is most raised.
But if not a profitable sheep, it is a
dear little creature for pet. for It is very
gentle and loving, and, because it is SO
small, is not such a nuisance about the
house as was the celebrated lamb which
belonged to little girl named Mary. 1t
would need to be a very large little girl
"A giant girl. indeed-who could take a
sheep in her lap and cuddle it there but
any ordinary little girl could find room in
her lap for Breton sheep quite as cas-
lily as for one Of those very ugly little
dogs called called by the ugly name of
pug.
One OF this little creatures peculiari-
ties is its extreme sympathy with the
feelings of its human friends, when it has
been brought up as pet in the house,
and has learned to distinguish between
happiness and unhapPiness. II any per-
son whom it likes great deal is very
much pleased about anything. and shows
i. by laughing, the little sheep will frisk
about with every sign Of joy; but if, on
the contrary, the person sheds tears, the
friend will evince its sorrow
in an equally unmistakable way. A kind
word and loving caress will also fill it
with happiness, while cross word or
harsh gesture will cause it evident dis.

who were about to seat themselves at .

peeping out from low French slippers and
Oscar riveted his gaze upon them. crossed
his legs, leaned upon q cane and smiled

when one ratified a knife on signal oil
