TRUE ECONOMY OF TIME.

a sioek raiser often loses much bv
n mistaken idca concerning tho use OF

animals for breeding purposes because
ho thinks no has not tho time to hunt
up and select better ones. Tho fc
males need culling, Those sold must
be replaced by others which will only
be profitable when selected with cnre.
Tho size also must be of the bcst or
profitable results will not follow.
Ordinary work about tho firm md
barn often prevents trip to como To-
cality where better stock can be
procured. How much better would it

timo has still been well spent if tho

not yet selected their boar. A good
stallion, which is profitable to any
community, has not been purchased.
The spare timo now may be we'll spent

EQUILIBRIUM IN EGGS.

Many complaints of purchased oggs
not Matching could be avoided if the
buyer would permit the eggs to rest
and SO regain the equilibrium lost in
transportation. Speaking on this sub
iect, II. d. Green says, in Farm and
Ranch:
If the buyer will examine the next
lot of eggs he gets from distance i'm
mediately after arrival by good light,
by holding them between his thumb
and forefinger, turning them over
slowly with tho other hand, he will
notice thin, watery substance near
the mir cavity in the largo end that
moves MS he turns the egg ovcr. And
if he will gently shake the egg close to
his chr he will, in good many in
stances. hear the egg shake inside the
shell. 1t has lost its "equilibriumr;"
it is "riled up" and in state of TO-
ment or ferment.
Certainly the egg could rest in the
nest rs we'll MS in the basket, but the
question Mt issue is whether it is wise
to apply the heat of the hens body to
the eggs while in such an unnatural
condition. Common sense says wait.
The very best authorities we have over
seen and tho leading breeders say wait.
Now, if the buyer will wait and OK
anime his eggs twenty -four hours later,
he will find that the thin, watcry sub
stance has disappeared and the egg is
firm in tho shell again. Then it is in
fit condition to set. In the other case
decomposition is more likely to set in
than incubation, or the germs to start
into life.
we made test on this point once.
We received two sittings of eggs of
the same variety from our brother in
Missouri. Ono setting we set immedi-
ately on arrival; we got five chickens
from that setting. Tho other lot we
held three days waiting for a hen
twelve of the thirteen eggs matched.
In the first instance eight of the eggs
were bad, indicating decomposition,
not infcrtility.

A Traeic Duel.

ga duel with tho most tragic dc.
nouemcnt of any in history occurred
in the eastern part of my State about
thirty years Ago." said Major II. j..
Kirk, of Vicksburg, Miss, ut tho La.
clcde. "Thc full story would occup,
two or three columns, but briefly it is
this: A young man named Gion Wis.
tied Colonel Benson, an old friend of
the family. During his stny there q
very valuable watch, which Ind been
i'll the Benson family for many years,
disappeared. Tho Colonel charged
Gion with tho theft. The boy ncw
into furious rage and challenged
Benson to fight II duel. Because oil
the young mans youth the Colonel de,
clined to accept. Then two of Gion's
elder brothers took a hand in the row.
This drew in Colonel Benson's eldest
son.
"A duel was arranged between the
eldest Gion and Colonel Benson, with
the second son of the Gion house AMI
the Coloneps son as seconds. At The
first fire both principals fell, MORALLY
wounded. The seconds then faced
each other, rs result OF which young
Benson killed Gion.
'The young scamp who had caused
all the trouble inherited the Gior es.
tnte after his brothers wero killed.
Ten years nfterward, while on his
deathbcd, he sent for Benson, who had
slain his brother He told Benson
that he had stolen the watch, rs ac-
cused by the Colonel, and gave him
directions how to find it where it had
lain buried behind Benson's stable all
those years. The scoundrel was, iu
fnct, thief, but when charged with
the theft of the watch was too proud
to acknowledge it, and III his indigna-
lion caused the almost total extcrmina-
ton of two families.
"Fhis is a truo story, though it
sounds like fiction. Any old Missis-
sippian will substantiato it, because it
was tho sensation of the day in the
South quarter of century ago."

SHEEP AND EARLY LAMBS.

On account of hard times and low
prices for wool, many farmers are dis
posing of their sheep MS rapidly as a
glutted market will permit. But there
is still hope for the farmer who holds
to his sheep. The present low prices
of sheep may chsapen mutton to such
an extent Chat many consumers of
meat will become confirmed mutton
eaters, establishing q permanent de.
mand for this excellent meat at fair
prices. Sheep raising, for mutton
alone, may be made profitable, if
