Color in Eggs.

There is q growing demand among
townspeople for dark-colored eggs. In
certain localities this has been the case
for years; and the preference has grown
and spread until it has become pretty
general. 1t will pay farmers who live
adjacent to towns and sell directly to
consumers, to be governed by this fact
in tllcir choice OF II breed. lest some en-
terprising competitor, more alive to the
popular demand, shall break in upon
their market and quietly steal away
their trade. OF the fowls that lay dark
colored eggs, there are probably none
rs desirable as tho Langshan and
Brahma. either OF which is good, al
though l prefer the Langshan after hav-
ing tried both. These two breeds lay
an egg almost identical in appearance,
being rich dark brown color. There
is no doubt that their eggs contain
more nutriment to given amount of
weight than those from most other
breeds. And even If they possessed no
well-founded points of superiority, the
fact remains that they are growing In
the estimation of the consumer, and as
long as you expect him to buy directly

Wonderful Discoveries Made by the Grea

Wonderful Discoveries Made by the Great
French Chemist.
DIR. Pasteur is getting more and more
famous every day, and his experiments
with his cure for hydrophobia are turn
ing out successfully.
Since Jenner's great discovery OF in
| oculation with virus for the prevention
Of smallpox, 1t has been the object of
scientists to discover means for the pre-
vention of other diseases in similar
manner BY means of the microscope
minute organisms, or microbes, were
discovered to be the cause of many
diseases of man and animals, and the
| question was TO determine to what ex-
tent diseases could be prevented
by inoculation Of diluted or weakened
poison into the system for preventing
the disease usually produced by the
| poison.
Louis Pasteur has made many Won
derful discoveries in this new branch of
medicine, but before that he was well
known as successful scientist in chem
ical and physical matters He was born
in Dole in 1922 and was appointed
teacher of chemistry at Bcsancon, and
then vt Dijon. and finally was appointed
| professor of chemistry ut Strassburg in
| lS49.
| In 1857 he conducted the Normal
school in Paris, and in 1868 was ap-
| pointed professor of chemistry at Sor-
bonne. He was compelled to resign
the latter position MS one side of his
body became paralyzed; but he grad
ually recovered his health sufficiently
to be able to take up his chemical re-
searches, and in order to enable him to
give his full attention to his studies,
the French Government has granted
him an annual pension of $4,000
francs since 1874, which has been raised
to 10000 francs recently.
Since 1870 Pastcur has given all his
attention to contagious diseases, such
us anthrax, chicken cholera and rabies
of dogs. All these diseases are caused
| by parasites of microbes, and he claim
cd that by inoculating part of the poi
son in small quantities and very much
diluted into the system person is less
apt to be affected by these diseases
than those who have not been thus in
oculated.
Troussait previously made expert
ments with the blood of animals suffer
ing from anthrax, but Pasteur has sue
ceeded in raising anthrax bacilli in a
drop of blood, and by preserving the
germs upon certain substances, THEN
strength as poison was diminished to
such an extent as not to cause any dis.
ease. Injection of this diluted poison
protected animals so that very few suf'
fered from anthrax when formerly en-
| tire herds were killed. NJ O. PicGaaine

" Nasal Voices, CatstSh and False
Teeth"


A prominent English woman says the
American women all have high, shrill, nasal
voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant twit-
ting they get about this nasal twang, and
yet 1t Is a fact caused by our dry stimulat-
ing atmosphere, and the universal presence
Of catarrhal difficulties.
But why should SO many of our women
have false teeth.
That is more of a poser to the English. 1t
is quite impossible to account for 1T except
on the theory of deranged stomach action
caused by imprudence in eating and by
want of regular exercise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption, which
are promoted by mal-nutrition induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition is
modern one, one unknown to our ancestors
who prevented tho catarrh, cold, cough and
consumption by abundant and regular use
of what Is now known as Warmers Log
Cabin Cough and Cons umption Remedy and
Log Cabin Sarsaparila, two old fashioned
standard remedies handed down from our
ancestors, and now exclusively put forth
under the strongest guarantees of purity
and efficacy by the world-famed makers OF
Warmers safe cure. These two remedies
plentifully used as the spring and summer
seasons advance give o positive assurance
of freedom, both from catarrh and those
dreadful and, if neglected, inevitable conse.
quences, pneumonia, lung troubles and con.
sumption, which so generally and fatally
prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher, Of Salem, Henry Co.

CHAMBERS AND FARcY.
Why Farmers Should Not Attempt to
Doctor Diseased Animals.

why Farmers Should Not Attempt to
Doctor Diseased Animals.
The prevalence of CHAMBERS in quite
a number of places in the West prompts
repetition Of the warnings given here
tofore in our columns, that it is extreme-
ly dangerous for any one to attempt
the doctoring of such diseased animals.
Gases are frequent where this loath-
some disease has been conveyed to the
attendants, who, after lingering while
in great suffering, have died horrible
deaths, the care of such persons being
not only repulsive, but dangerous as
we'll. There is only one safe course to
follow when animals are found to bo
affected with glanders, and that is to
Immediately destroy them. and bury
them deeply where they are not likely
to be disturbed. The stables should be
thoroughly disinfected. and every thing
that has been used about the animals,
brushes. harness, pals, etc, should be
immersed in boiling water, and then.
after having been dried, placed in a
carbolic acid solution. A safer method
is to burn all these things, together with
all straw, hay or other food about the
managers, and even the woodwork about
the stables. The fatal and very conta-
gious character of this disease calls for
the greatest caution, and it is far better
to burn every thing from which there is
the least danger, rather than take any
risk whatever. 1t is particularly dam
gerous for any one whose hands the skin
is broken or tender to handle such ami
mails, for, as stated, the disease is in
durable, and alike fatal to man and
beast. Farcy is similar disease, aud
either frequently terminates in conlbi-
nation with the other. Although gem
orally spread by infection. these dis
eases may originate from badly
ventilated, unhealthy quarters, from
bad food. prlvation. etc., and hence tho
Importance of providing suitable food
and housing for the stock. When tho
disease breaks out in stable, the af-
fectad animals should be Immediately
.,plrated from the rest. Those that
nave been exposed should be carefully
Watched, and on the first appearance
vi any indications of the disease should
at once be placed where they can do no
harm, and when it is evident that tho
disease is CHAMBERS, they should also 10

Prevent Them by Keeping Your Fowls
Clean and Well Fed.
"The best and only way in which to
prevent fowls from having diseases is
to look with unremitting care to the
cleanliness of their food and water, of
the vessels in which they are fed and
watered, us we'll as to the thorough
cleanliness and proper ventilation of
their houses, and they be not crowded
in their houses, or have a wet floor un-
der them. Then, of course, in confine-
ment or on limited range, one must
supply them with what they would find
for themselves, if free. A dust bath,
part ashes and part dirt, with q little
sulphur added; ground shells and
bones; fine gravel; meat of some kind,
two or three times a week; onions,
also, and II supply of charcoal broken
UP for them, and n constant daily sup
ply of vegetables or green stuff OF some
kind" This is the doctrine of the
poultry business us we have been try
ing to preach it. Keep the hens clean
and we'll fed, avoid dirt, hunger and
wet floors, and you will prevent dis
ease getting Il foothold. and preven'
ton is better than cure. If, from ex-
posure to cold rain, or some such
cause, bird shows signs of roup, adj
minister slug or two, separate her
from the others, keep her warm. give
her strengthening food, including some
bits of raw meat. or little milk, and
she may be cured; but for an advanced
case of roup, or an attack of cholera,
l should unsparingly use the hatchet
and block, burying the carcasses.-

IMPOSING ON NATURE.
Candied Fruits Which Will Keep Wen In
Any Climate.

Candied Fruits Which VIII Keep Well In
Any Climate.
Until quite recently all of the can
died fruits that were seen at the Broad
way fruit stores and confectioners'
were imported from France. Now most
of them come from California. The
French fruit is put up in more showy
manner and brings q higher price than
the domestic fruit. But the California
product is just as good eating, and
with little practice will equal the i'm
ported fruit in appearance.
The method of preparing the fruit is
simple, but requires good Judgment to
be successful. In the south of France
it has grown to be great industry, as
nearly all of Europe is supplied from
that section. In preparing the fruit,
pears, pineapples and ounces are
pared; citrons are quartered, and the
pits of cherries, apricot and peaches
are removed. The fruit is then i'm
mersed in boiling water, which quickly
penetrates the pulp, dissolves and elm
mates the juice. Then the fruit is re-
moved ana tne water drained OH, leaV-
wing only the solid portions of pulp in
tact. This is then immersed in large
earthen pans, in a sirup made by dis
solving sugar in water. The sirup in
turn penetratcs the pulp and gradually
replaces the fruit juices. In about six
weeks it is thoroughly impregnated
with sugar, and is taken out and wash
ed in pure water If it is to be glazed,
it is dipped into thick sirup and left
to harden in the open air. This pro-
duces transparent coating. If the
fruit is to be crystallized, it is dipped
in the sirup and then dried slowly in q
kiln heated to ninety degrees. This
produces a granulatcd appearance. If
properly done, candied fruits will bear
/ transportation to any climate, and will
preserve their quality and flavor for a
| year.
| The imported fruits are put up in
neat bonbon boxes with glass fronts.
| The California fruit is assorted and
placed in fancy paper boxes, holding
one or two pounds each. N y. Mail

Where hens are not changed from

1t is claimed that wet land may be
made to produce fire wood by planting
willows thereon, and that it may be
made profitable to do SO in some Sec
tions.
1t Is wasteful practice to haul out
manure in winter and leave 1t in small
heaps till spring. The manure often
heats and throws off the ammonia,
which is lost. If spread at once 1t will
not heat.

to put it an oven. as it will be more
equally charred than If in contact with
fire.
Practical experience has demon
strated in the face of all opposition,
even it the fact can not be explained
that the growing and plowing under OF
crops in the green condition will en-.
rich the soil, and that nitrogen will be
thereby increased.
Cabbage salad: Cut the cabbage
very fine. and put into dish in layers,
with salt and pepper between; then
take two teaspoonfuls of butter, two of
| flour, two OF mustard, one cup of vine-
gar and one egg. Stir all together and
let it come to q boil on the stove; p our
it hot over and mix we'll with cabbage.
Cover up.
| In case of tomatoes to be grown in
new soil, likely to be too rich and send
up plenty of vines and blossoms but
little or no fruit, start the plants early
IN the house; transplant at least twice.
When the plants begin to bloom, or
just before, sink spade about the
roots and within foot of the stem.
"A boed crop should be part of the
regular rotation on all farms, for the
reason that such crop requires close
cultivation, and when removed leaves
the ground clean. Unless this be done
the weeds will at some time take pos
session of the fields, though much bene-
| fit will result from the use of the culti-
vator if a corn crop is grown.
