The White Leghorn.

As egg-producers | believe the Leg
horns stand al the head of all breeds.
There are breeds that it is claimed are bet
ter layers than the Leghorns, but if you
will give this breed good warm house
and good care, don't think you will find
any breed that will beat them; at least
that is my experience. They must have
warmer house than some other breeds,
because of their large combs and wattles,
which are more liable to freeze than those
OF fowls with smaller combs Some
claim that the Leghorns are too small ;
it is true they are small. but what OF
thats
The same food that would raise Brah-
ma from a chick to weigh eight pounds

horns to weigh four pounds each; and il
You are raising them for early chicks for

out. sold and eaten, before the Brahmas
fairly realize that to look we'll their bodies
should be covered with feathers.
Another reason why l like Leghorns is.
the pullets begin to lay very young. My

white egg. but there are exceptions; the
best hen had last year laid eggs nearly
as dark in color as those of Plymouth

had two gardens last summer. one
each side of my poultry house, and Meth
err of them IL rods distant. Neither OF
these gardens were picketed in, and my
| hens did not bother q thing in either until
the tomatoes we're more than halt ripe
but my hens were fed all summer.
| believe it pays to keep hens, and
Just as much believe that it pays to feed
them. If, after grass got start in the
spring we had taken the feed away from
our hens and told them to shift for them
selves, they would undoubtedly have done
so, and very likely would have shifted
some for us in the garden besides.-Cor

some one or something was there, and
then swung my legs off the bed to face

me in the calf OF the leg, though the ex-

crashing down and then drew away from
the window for fear of being fired on.
Just then the clock struck one.
There had been an attempt to murder
me. Was the would-be murderer the
widows son? If not. the firing must have
aroused her, and she should have called

be safe for me to go down stairs? Would
