THE QUERY ANSWERED.

MIDDLEBURY, VT, Jan. ,, 1858.
Edtor Register Il have spent my va
cation out of town. On my return my
attention is directed to "A Query" in
your issue of Dec. %, by "A Citizen,'
which reads: 'Was it because the young
gentlemen in the high school were not
capable of taking the parts in the simple
drama that was played at the closing of
the term that they were obliged to go out
side and hire students from the college"
Evidently he does not ask for informa-
ton, but is under Il false impression. No
one was ever hired to take part in the
closing exercises of Middlebury graded
school. Two young gentlemen of college
were invited, not by me, but by those
who had charge of that part of the enter
tainment. to take part in the drama. This
has been done before. The receipts of
the evening were S39.95. The expenses
were ten cents. G.. ID. MEAD.

HOW TO GET MORE EGGS.

1t is fact but little known to people
who keep poultry, that the first part of a
hen which becomes disarranged on the
approach of disease, is the ovaries or ego
producing organs.
Excess of fat, exposure to wet and cold
poor condition, shedding feathers, I'M
proper food, want of exercise, or lack OF
certain elements in the food to develop
the embryo egg, will all produce the
same effect and cause the hens to stop
laying.
1t cannot be laid down as an "ironclad''
rule, that when hen ceases laying it is
"A positive symptom she will soon be sick ;
but it can be stated with the utmost as
surance that something is wrong or she
would not cease laying for weeks, and
often months.
The annual egg product per hen, in
this country, ranges from three to eight
dozen each. Now this is by far too
small. There is no earthly reason why
every hen that lays at all, should not be
made to lay from ten to fifteen dozen
eggs each per year, and continue to do so
for AT least five years. We know of par
ties who get eggs at that rate in mid
winter in our cold climate.
How TO get eggs in cold weather inter
ests every person who keeps hens. Mr..
Charles Raymond of New Canaan, Conn,
writes under date of March S. 1887, II
had excellent results from feeding SHER-
IDANs POWDER to my seventeen hens.
In December they laid 22i eggs January
III and in February 2ll. People around

THE STATISTICS OF STRIKES.

The most interesting statistics of the
year are those gathered by Commissioner
Carroll ID. Wright of Washington, bear
ing on the strikes in this country during
the years 1881 to 1856 inclusive. In 1881
there were Ill of these movements 1882.
45i; 1888, 49, 1881, 443; 1885, 645, and
1856, 14l2. Here are some further fig-
ures given by the commissioner: The
total employees involved in the whole
number of strikes for the entire period
was l,3lS,G24. The number of employees
originating strikes was 1,020,S32 num-
Der in all establishments before strikes
occurred, 1862. .045. whole number en-
ployed in establishments involved after
the strikes, l,G36,247; a loss of 25,79S.
There were lO3.O3S new employees engag-
ed after the strikes, 81 ,4S3 being brought
from other places. The average dura-
ton of stoppage on account of strikes
was 23.l days, for lockouts 2S duvs.
Success followed in 10, ,407 cases, or 45 80
per cent. of the whole; partial success.
'''"fi vi io'fo per Ctll. VI the whole (.
failure in 500 cases, or 39.S9 per cent.
of the whole.
Disclaiming absolute accuracy. the re-
port gives the losses to employees and
employers resulting from strikes and
lock-outs as follows: Losses to strikers.
s5l,sl6,l65; loss to employees through
lock-outs, Ss,l32,7l7; total wage loss.
s59,94s,ss2: average loss, S2445 to each
establishment, or nearly $40 to each
striker; assistance given to strikers, SO,
325,O57; to sufferers from lock-outs, ST.
l05, ,53S; total, S4,33O, ,595. EMPLOYERS
losses through strikers, $50, 1872, ,653 /;
through lock-outs, s3,432, POI; total,
S3i, ,l64,9l4.
There might be several lessons drawn
from these figures. One is quite obvious.
and that is that strikes don't pay. AL
1ost 40 per cent of them fail, and, when
the loss of wages is taken into account,
probably many of those which are said
= succeed are practically failures.
