How Oil Rockets Are Made.

The use of oil to calm troubled

THE POULTRY YARD.
Care of Chickens and How to Make Pigeon
Raising Profitable.

Care of Chickens and How to Make Pigeon
Raising Profitable.
If the hens seem to be growing too
fat, slow up on corn and other grain,
but keep up as much variety of food as
possible. If you buy eggs of a breeder
be sure that the hens are not over fat,
or the eggs will not be fertile. One
who processes to know practically
whereof he speaks, says that poultry
for the table, to be at it's best, should
be fattened quickly. One of the best
fattening properties, he adds, will be
found in milk in almost any stage,
from sweet to clabber. 1t should be
fed in connection with plenty of grain.
Chickens should be fed plentifu1ly
before going upon the roost,
also saith this experienced adviser.
Oil is fatal to every insect it touches.
and sulphur is very offensive to
them. A mixture of four ounces of
lard and one of sulphur, well rubbed
together, and with the addition of one
ounce of kerosene oil and one drachm
of creosote, will he found an excellent
remedy against all sorts of insect YER
min, while the liberal use of kerosene
oil on poultry roosts will free the fowls
from their tormentors.
When carried on in its highest de-
gree, the breeding of race domestic
pigeons may be regarded as branch
of the fine arts, as 1t has for its object
the production of living pictures,
beautiful in form and rich in coloring.
1t is an art requiring much thought
and. study, and is exceled in only by
such as have served long apprentice
ship to it. As an engaging pastime for
their leisure hours, before and after
the sterner business of life, many
find relaxation, both for body
and mind, in keeping and breeding
pigeons, which from their very nat
ure are universal favorites. Careful
poultry growers will not use for setting
the large, overgrown eggs These are
commonly double-yelked, and either
become added under the hen or else
produce some n1onstrosity of no value
except as curiosity. The thrifty
housewife does not send these eggs to
iuhEhs1 ShCiA pAiC oc1IdC prize 1S paul
for eggs without regard to size. She
uses them for cakes, putting in one
where the recipe says two, and thus
economizing without damage to stom-
ach or appetite. The habit of produc-
ing 0vergrown eggs Is bad one, but
it is better thus than to keep breeds of
fowls whose eggs will barely pass mus
ter. It is possible even for hen to be
too economical in the material she
for egg production. London,

SPAiN'S FAIR DANES.

The Ways of Maids and Matrons In the
Land of the TroubadOurs.
When Spanish woman is beautiful
she is beyond compare; but this
transcendent beauty, contrary to what
travellers would have us believe, is the
exception rather than the rule in
kind is not prepossessing, whilst. sad
to say. Spanish woman's good looks
last but brief span, and as she puts
ON years she invariably puts on flesh.
whilst long before she arrives at the
age when we In America consider a
woman has a right to be both flair
and fat, the symmetry of her form is
certainly not of the character that an
aesthetic poet would rave about In
fact, one of the chief reasons why so
few foreigners marry Spanish women
lis, i believe, on this account. A man
must be very much gone on the

of a Bayardian loyalty if he does not
desire to escape from the engagement

WITHOUT A NEST.
A Bird That Builds No Home and Spen
Its Days in Sleep.

A Bird That Builds No Home and Spends
Its Days in Sleep.
The term might-hawk is commonly
applied to several species, all of which
have certain peculiarities. From its
curious cry enc is called chuck-will's-
widow, this call being uttered SO loud
ly by the bird that it has been heard
for nearly a mile. About the middle
of March they come back from their
winter pilgrimage; and, unlike most of
the birds. they have no housekeeping
to keep them busy, as they build no
nests. While the robins, humming-
birds, thrushes and others, are busily
securing the country for material with
which to build their nurseries, the
chuck will's-widow is fast asleep in
some out-of-the-way corner. only conn
ing out in the afternoon and evening
to gather its supply of food.
When the time comes for laying, our
seemingly-lazy bird selects some
secluded spot. and deposits her eggs
any where on the ground; and the very
first glimpse, if we are fortunate in
finding them at all, explains why she
builds no nest. The eggs are almost
the exact color of the surroundings,
and SO notified and tinted that only by
the merest accident are they discov-
cred: and when the two little chuck
wilrs-widows finally come out they are
even more difficult to find than the
eggs. Being very sleepy little fellows
they rarely move, and, though stand
