MAKING General.

A Prussian officer serves five years tc
begin with rs Il lieutenant with his reg.
iment, says the Chatter. This gives
him a working knowledge of the ell
ementary duties of his profession.
Then I'M II three years training at
the War academy, the high school for
officers founded in 1910 and finally
placed in 1872 under the supcrintend-
ence of the chief of the general staff.
After studying tactics, military his.
tory. fertilization, and other military
subjects, as well rs geography, matll.
cmatics, and n or two modern Ian
guagcs, the young officer is eligible for
service on the great general staff, ana
for commands varying in responsible
ity from that OF n company to the COM
mand of an army corps. For officers
of recognized capacity, regimcntal
service a%Itcrnatcs with employment on
the general staff.
The captain on the staff after four
years work is transfcrrcd to a regiment,
aud 4 year or two later may be again
selected for the staff as major. After
a further term of staff service he will
get command of a regiment.
From this point lie may once more
be selected for the staff. to become
eventually major-gcneral in command
Of a brigade. This is how generals
are made in Germany.

Tho L%angshans lay best in winter.
They give a goodly number Of eggs,a and
are excellent table birds.
The Brahmas come next-the light

The Plymouth Rocks are good layers

WYatadottes, but they will lay more eggs
thar the Rocks.
The Houdans and the whole French
clH,s are excellent layers and grand
m, .rket birds.
Tho Leghorns, Minorcas, Spanish,
Andalusians and Hamburgs are the
Ni~ls with big egg records.
The Dorkings are superior sor flesh
qualities.
The Leghorns, Minorcas, Spanish and
Houdans lay the largest eggs.
The Brown Leghorns lay the most
eggs of the Leghorn family.
Tho Javas recommend themselves
as table birds, and very readily assume
fat.
The Jersey blues are not highly rec
commended either as egg producers OF
table birds.
Tho Polish are the handsomest o.
fowls, excellent layers, but not recon-
Hended for the table.
The Handbags are persistent layers,
but of no account for the table.
The American Dominiques are the
original American fowl. They are good
layers and table birds.
The Game class are second to none
for table use, and also possess a credit
able egg record.

known house of Montgomery. Ward & Co..
of Chicago, in the way OF n startling offer
to sell half MANILA and half sisal binder
Irvine at 10 cents per pound, nearly five
cents less than the trust Irvine can be sold
for. Montgomery, Ward & Co. will lose
q fortune by this move, but they say that
have resolved to break the Irvine trust
price If such a thing is possible. The fact
that they deal directly with the farmers,
and thatthey by the
million, makes their influence very power
full. If they should succeed in breaking
the market, the saving to the American
farmers will amount to almost s.. 00a ,0J0,
