Shell Theory.
By IL. b. GEER.

The idea entertained by some people
that brown shelled egg is richer than
a white shelled egg, is simply theory
that has no foundation in fact. The
color Of the shell is no Indication what
ever as to the condition of the contents
inside, whether rich or poor.
The color Of shell does, however,
give us a pointer as to the kind Of hen
that laid the egg. There are two dis
tlnct classes OF varieties Of hens, of
which there are many different strains
and many intermediate grades. They
are known as the Asiatic and the
Mediterranean classes. The former
is the large, feather legged type, to
which belong the Brahmas, Cochins
and Langshans. The Mediterranean
class comprises the Leghorns, Spanish,
Minorcas, etc. The former or Asiatc
class lay very dark shelled eggs, while
the latter lay clear, white shelled eggs.
The Asiatics are the * hatchers,'' the
hens being very much given to sitting.
The Mediterranean type are more per-
sistent layers and less inclined to sit.
To the intermediate class belong
such purebred varieties as the Plymouth
Rocks and Wyandottes, better known
as the American breeds. Hens of these
two varieties lay light brown shelled
or cream-colored eggs. According to
the shell theory, their eggs should be
a sort Of a happy, go-between the
Asiatics and Mediterranean in quality
and flavor.
Then there's the good old common
hens. They are all of mixed blood of
no distinct class, and the shells of their
eggs vary in color from light brown
to creamy white. never quite as dark
brown as the pure Asiatics, nor so
white as those Of the purebred Medi-
terraneans.
Unlike the shell. however, the yolk
OF the egg IS pretty good indication
OF It's richness. Hens that have plenty
OF grass and insects lay the richest,

THE POULTRY YARD.
Farm and Preside, |

When a poultry house is lined with
tarred paper it is frequently the case
that the house is damp. This is due
to several causes, among them being
that new lumber gives Off more or less
moisture, and tarred paper condenses
the moisture of the room. When the
house is thoroughly seasoned this may
not happen. The doors and windows
should be kept open during the day,
and during cold weather a lump OF
stone lime should be placed in the cor
ner of the room to absorb the moisture.
1t is not due to the eXhalations from
the birds, but rather to the dampness
of the atmosphere, which is condensed
by the cold tarred paper. Ordinary
building paper does not condense the
moisture. The damp boards will also
give off considerable moisture in the
room, which will be condensed and
precipitated on the colder tarred
paper.

Egg Bound Fowls.
farm POultry,1


Many deaths result from this condi-
ton. 1t is most common in late win
ter and early spring, owing probably
to the diet tending toward extreme fat
ness. Hens Of the smaller breeds.
and especially those having their liberty
are seldom troubled with the disease.
A ma jority Of the cases of egg bound
hens will be found on post mortem ex-
animation to be fat-the liver enlarged
and the muscular system weakened by
fatty degeneration. Not only is fat
deposited between the muscular fibres,
but many Of the tibres themselves are
misplaced by fat. This makes the
muscles not only weak in action, but
quite easily ruptured. In common
with other muscles those surrounding
the oviduct (egg passage) become weak
and habby, and if large egg is on its
way out, or if through fright extra
strain is brought upon these muscles,
the passage is easily torn open and the
egg passes into the abdominal cavity
and is followed by peritonitis and death.
Hens are sometimes found dead upon
the nest, apparently there for the pur-
pose OF laying an egg. This is caused
often from the fatty condition of the
heart muscles. The action necessary
to eject the egg being too much for the
weak heart, it staggers and then stops,
and the hen is found dead in the nest
An over fat hen has a deposit around
the bowels, pressing upon not only
them but also the lower part of the
egg passage. This acts as a foreign
body and obstructs the passage of the
egg. Very large, soft shelled OF broken
eggs are causes Of difficulty in the
oviduct. Pullets are often egg bound
for few days when they begin to lay.
This is owing to the small passage ;
but after few eggs are passed the
oviduct becomes larger and the trouble
ceases.
SYMPTOMS.
You will find the hen walking around
with tail depressed, and every few
minutes going to the nest and trying
to pass an egg. Catch the bird !; you
will find her straining and sometimes
can feel hard body in the vent.
TREATMENT.
If the egg bound condition is owing
to long continued fairness all treatment
will fail. Prevention ought to pre-
vent all causes Of this trouble. DiI
the finger into sweet OF castor oil and
introduce it into the vent. Ten drops
of fluid extract of ergot given to hen
from a spoon and followed in half al
hour by holding the hen over hot water
SO the steam can reach the vent will
sometimes relieve the condition. A
all events remove her from the male
bird and feed soft feed and warm water
If successful in removing the egg, ant
the bird is worth the extra trouble
keep her in dry, sunny quarters, ant
in her drink put two drops tinctur'
nux vomica to one-half pint of water
Give this for ten days, avoiding foods
rich in starch, such as corn and buck
wheat.
