WATER EXPERIMENTS,

G. H. Payne Fremont, Nebraska, writes
experimenting with raising chickens on the
no-water theory. In March, 1879, he had
two broods hatched at the same time from
the same male parent, but from two differ
ent hens. One brood was allowed all the
water they would drink the other get wa
only when it rained. Food Tor chicks alike
to both broods. The brood that had the
run Of plenty of water made strong, healthy
chicks; the ether was affected with diorrhea
when young, made weak fowls and died the
following winter.

''aike as regards conditions of cooping,
feeding, etc. during the season of 80, 81
and 's2. varied but little from the above.
The length of lite OF these birds do not
know complete, but enough to warrant the
assertion that chicks reared without water
do not prove the best as breeders. The
conclusions arrived at from these expert
ments prompts me to advise the supply OF
clean pure water, from the day of the chicks
birth, and to keep it before them from early
morn until the last chick has gone to roost

years past, and doubt that | ever lost

wheat so shrunken this year that they will

Mount Blanc Pudding.-Boi six or seven
large apples as yOe would for sauce, stir in
two ounces Of butter, little sugar, and the
grated rind and juice of half a lemon. Cover
the edge of baking dish with layer of
puff paste, well butter the inside Of the dish
and line it plenlifully with fresh bread

and cover well with more bread crumbs.
Scatter little bits Of butter over the top, and

antil the paste is done, and the top of the
pudding slightly Drowned. Whip the whites
of three eggs to stiff froth, and pile them
roughly in spoonfuls over the bread crumbs
at the top of the pudding, but not over the
border of paste; sift speonful of white
sugar over it, and put it back into the oven
just long enough to set the eggs without
coloring them.
Tomato Sauce.-Pour boiling water over
the tomatoes to loosen the skins peel them
and alice into an iron stew-pan or porcelain

three-quarters of an hour, skimming off the
yellow troth as it rises to the top. A little

add also a dessertspoonful of sugar. Lay
thin pieces of toast in the bottom of vege-

five minutes and serve.

SAVING SEED.

Director Sturtevant, of the New York
Agricultural experiment Station, makes the
following statement: There is no one fac
tor which is OF more Importance to the
farmer in Increasing his crops than this one
of the quality of the seed used, and fsrtun-
a:ely all the experience we have indicates
the great power that man has, through a
judicious selection, in changing for the bet
ter the properties of the seed he uses. AS
between distinctively goed seed and dis
tinctively bad seed there may be differ
ence of double the crop harvested, and in
some classes OF plants the difference in the
value Of the crop harvested may be mani

The event Of the year in poultry circles
was the admission of the Wyandotte to the
list of standard varieties.
The bird may be described as OF medium
size, and combining the intrinsic values of
the most desirable breeds with intrinsic
qualities that will not require the evil tend
encies of inbreeding to maintain; bird that
may be bred with profit for the market, and
at the same lime have itS place in the show
pen.
The Wyandotte is of composite origin,
and shows by itsprominent characteristics
and sports that the Brahma. Cochin and
Hamburg were concerned in the make up,
as we have in the most valuable properties
OF each maintained and developed, and the
Objectionable features eliminated. Thus,
the bird may be said to be the meaty and
prolific Hamburg increased in size and made
more hardy but without the broodiness and
tendency TO lay on tat that is Objectionable
in the Asiatic. y
The standard birds are we'll pictured in

front, wide back, the spike being less de-
veloped than in the Hamburg. The face OF
