SOFT SHELL EGGS.

The laying of soft shell eggs at this sea-
son of the year is very common, and many
remedies are suggested to prevent il. The
fact is, the causes are many, and if they
are all treated alike it will be matter of
chance whether success is obtained. The
most common cause, and one on which
the most stress is always laid is the lack
of calcareous matter in the chickens sys-
tenn, and hence III their food. The COM
mon remedy Is a good one. Give the
fowls the freedom OF old beds of mortar.
or of oyster shells broken up. If the lack
of this substance in the system is the
cause of the complaint, such treatment
will bring about change shortly. 4 sec
ond cause, very common among the Dor
kings, Crevecoeurs and other heavy breeds.
especially at this season of the year. is uu-
due excitement. In the spring of the year
they are exposed more to excitement when
they are on the range than at any other
season, and this induces them to Law soft
sheiled eggs. Fowls that are driven about
much, or worried in any way will be apt
TO lay soft eggs. The only remedy for this,
OF course, IS complete rest, and a removal
of the causes Of excitement.
Disease and Inflammation OF the egg
passage is another very common cause.
which causes the production of eggs unit
for market, and those which are often
broken before they can be secured for home
use. The best remedy for this is to give
the hens a dose or two of calomel, one
grain, and one-twelfth of gram of tartar
emetic, in their meals. This may be re-
peated day or two after.
This complaint is sometimes caused by
over-stimulating food, such as highly
spiced food from the table At such
times the food ration should be very
simple, consisting chiefly of rice and DO
tatoes, with no seasoning whatever in it.
Unwholesome food will also sometimes
bring about the same unhealthy condi-

The Latin church makes the church the

There Should Be Better Varie-
ties of Apples and Pears.
CULTURE OF SUGAR sEETs.
Care OF Bees In the spring-The Best
sheep for Mountain Disfricts-Rsm-
edy for soft-sheIied Eggs.

One of the strange features of the horti-
cultural industry in this country Is the
lack of any systematic experiment 10 Inn
prove the apple and pear trees, and to in
troduce new varieties. In every other de-
partment Of the work this is carried along
rapidly, and potatoes, tomatoes, strawDer-
ries and other plants are multiplied SO
rapidly that the nurserymzn's catalogue Is
growing aiarmingly larger every year, but
the apples and pears are decidedly neg
lected in this respect. The best apes
that we have are chance seedlings, gathered
anywhere, and pronounced good after trlai.
Owing to the long time 1t takes seedlings
TO mature, the testing of apples and pears
has not been carried on as rapidly as the
smaller fruits and vegetables, but there IS
every opportunity nov Of testing the fruits
as rapidly as potatoes.
If our best varieties are the chance seed
lings obtained years ago. there must be
some new chance seedlings TO spring into
existence, probably as good, If not better.
than those already cultivated. Il is a
matter OF regret that more do not plant
seeds every year in some suitable locality
in the garden or orchard. When the
trees have attained some growth take
bud from each Seeding in August and in
sert ii in bearing tree. The result will
be merely experimental, but It is only in
this way that new and better fruit can be
obtained. Every farmer and fruitgrower
can be his own nurseryman then, and
everyone will help along fruit culture In
good way. 1t will take only three or four
years for one 10 be able to get sample
from the bud and test its qualities. II can
be easily cut out If unworthy, and another
one budded in its place.
On nearly every farm and in nearly every
orchard there is at least one old tree that
would be of little value for anything else
than for testing fruit. A great number of
buds could be inserted into one OF these
trees, and whole experimental garden
carried on there alone. In a short time
there would be no doubt but some new
variety would be propagated that would be
better fitted for the orchard than many
other trees growing. Then the interests
OF pomoiogy in general would also be
greatly benefited by the work. If five or
ten buds were inserted every year, and as
many seedlings planted, the results would
he widespread. Many a roadside Seeding,
containing the possibilities of good fruit,
has been allowed to perish from the lack
of intelligent attention.
