Mixture Containing the Essential Ele.
ments for Producing Eggs.
We do not believe in condition pow
ders to stimulate the physical system,
unless it is for special purpose we'll
defined, nor in continental food to
tone up the system in a general way.
Nevertheless specific preparations for
special purpose are ali right An au-
thority, in relation to special prepa-
ration in addition to the regular food,
gives the following formula as access
sorry in promoting egg laying:
Ground bone, one pound (phos-
phoric acid and lime); ground meat or
blood, three pounds (nitrogenous,
forming albumen); linseed-meal, one
half-pound heterogeneous. carbonace-
Gus, and laxative, used for regulating
the bowels)s charcoal, one pound
FUSED for promoting digestion and as
sisting to correct acidity); sulphur, one
ounce "a necessary constituent of an
egg, and assists in warding off disease);
salt, half pound Every necessary, and
often neglected); ground ginger, two
ounces; red pepper, one tablespoonful;
fenugreek, half pound, gentian, one
ounce (stimulants and correctives);
chloride of iron, one ounce Gan invig-
orator of the system.)
These contain the essential elements
for producing eggs. in addition to the
ordinary food. Give tablespoonful
of the mixture once day for ten hens,

A MOTHERS CALENDAR.

I-SPR1NG.
New life is stirring in every Dough,
AND fiutter of wings is in the air,
And my eyes with happy tears are dim,
AS watch, in the tall old trees cleft limb,
A busy mother bird that there
Fashions her nest of moss and hair
1ne days go by and the leaves grow green
On the tail old tree where the nest is made;
The mother bird folds her tireless wings,
And my heart as I watch her, sings and
sings
4ts happy song; and is not afraid,
For the sweetest Joy is Joy delayed.
H-SUMMER.
The patient broodng days are DER,
There's stir Of life in the soft brown nest,
And share it, too, the mothers JOY,
When my weak arms hold my tiny boy
And gather him closely to my breast,
when he softly m'Smurs and sinks to rest,
., the round green world, and the clear blue
sky,
How fair they are IN these sunny daysl
New cares may come and fresh demands
On the weary heart, and the feeble hands,
But strength comes, too, and song OF praise
Goes up with the birds sweet morning lays.
III-AUTUMN
The leaves are dying and turning brown
The red sun peers through the morning mist;
And mist clouds over my boys blue eyes,
That once were clear as the summer skies
o, the throbbing pulse in the tiny wrist!
And the fever flush on the cheek kissed!
Outside in the tree, mid the falling leaves,
The mother has taught her brood to fly;
They must fee away to warmer cline.
From the coming chill of the winter time,
The thought holds back my heart-sick cry:
How can live if my boy must der
IV-WINTER.
An empty nest on tossing bough,
When the eddying snow fakes round It
sweep,
And they fall, know, on tiny mound
In a corner nook of the church-yard ground,
Where my baby lies in his last long sleep.
And away to my quiet room Creep
For the heart will ACHE and be numb and cold,
Frozen by grief like earth's hard clay,
Though Our Father careth, and knoweth
best
When each bird must fly from its mothers
nest
And we know they are singing far away,
IN the golden light OF a fairer day!

Why Men Drink.

That wonderful humorist, Tom Hood, once
remarked There are five reasons Why men
sirink Good wine. friend; because they
are dry; or at least they may be bye and bye ::
or any other reason why The last is per-
haps the most common reason James Par
ton once headed an article ..Wifl the coming
man drink" but as he failed to answer the
query we will express decided opinion
that, until the coming man learns TO prize
home, social family ties above all others,
will he learn not to abuse his own organism.
In March last a writer in the Medical Age
made some practical remarks upon the sub
ject, and offered timely hint which pro-
hibition advocates would do well to note.
He says As long as the imperfeetions of
humanity remain untitled TO its surroundings
and conditions, so long evil and misery will
continue aud men seek refuge in strong
drink. Increase the sum of human happiness
by whatever means possible. lessen the bur-
dens and ameliorate the woes of mankind,
remove hunger disease and pain by a better
physical and moral education. and you will
have piucked ont the fangs of that dire
monster '-intemperance.
Among the worst morbid conditions result
ing from the use of alcoholic liquors, as well
as from improper food and customs of eating
are NATURALIZATION Oh the stOHldcn, ooWeis.H'ef
kidneys and brain.
1t matters not in what part of the body
Inflammation exists, or how severe it may be
whethert takes the form of gastric infamma
ton, in dyspepsia, or as in bronchitis, ca'arrh
hay fever, pneumonia, rheumatism, or as in
common cuts and bruises, Johnson's Anodyne
Liniment will conquer it, relieve the pair
and prove to you that it is indeed an anOdyne
of mighty power, and unlike all others, a;
1t is for internal as well as external use.

Good fences to protect good crops.
Wild cherry is valuable forest tree.

Black walnut can be grown easily

Forest tree seeds will dry out unless

A farmer says you can feed a hog so

HOW l.iraffeS Arc CantnrNd-

Mr. Lohse, hunter of wild animals
in the employ of New York firm, told
q Sun reporter how giraffts are cap
tured. 1t takes only about four to six
horsemen and about twelve or fifteen
foOtmcn for a giraffe hunt The long
neckcd animals on stills 90 in herds of
so to 100 head. When the hunting
party discover the spoor of a herd Of
giraffes they creep up on them and wait
until the midday heat when the ami
mails are in the shade of the thickets.
Then the horsemen run in on them and
drive them out into the open country
under the scorching rays of the sun.
An hour chase in the desert exhausts
the giraffcs so that the young ones drop
in their tracks unable to go any further.
The old giratfes arc killed for their
meat, which is considered a great deli
cacy. 1t tastes something like veal.
The young, as soon as they fall down in
an exhausted state, are secured with
halter, to which is fastened two lono
ropes. AS soon as 1t is sufficiently re-
covered to walk it is driven between
two hunters to the nearest shade. Then
it is allowed to rest and is fed on goats
milk. A dozen or so goats are always
taken on giraffe hunt for this purpose.
After the young giraffe becomes used
to the goats milk it is driven to the
camp, and thence by easy stages to the
main camp, or serbia. The giraffes
that are so captured are never more than
two to four months old. They grow
very fast and reach Europe
when they are about a
year old and or 8 feet high. I have
had over forty of them at a time run
ming loose in the serbia.
