AMONG THE POULTRY.

Mrs. TmsoN says that seventy-five
cents is the very outside cost of keeping
a hen year.
If eggs are turned in the nest or in
cubator with the naked hand they may
be ruined.
NEVER give poultry brine. In giving
salt mix a teaspoonful to quart of
dry meal and then wet it.
FROM four to five feet of space should
be allowed in the poultry house for
each hen. Fifty is enough to keep in
one house.
Mrs. MooREHEAD, of Wisconsin, first
feeds chicks ground oats dry. They
pick out the little white particles. She
feeds five times a day.
If early broilers are wanted, the in
cubator must be brought into use, if
enough chickens are expected to make
it worth while to go into the business.
ONE of our poultry breeders always
keeps lump of salt where the poultry
can get at it, II is claimed that they
will not eat enough to hurt them, and
that is probably true.-Farmer's Voice.

OUADRUPED HEROES.
Dogs of France that Rave Had Military
Funerals.


Funerals.
A Paris paper tells the story of sew

Or in the French colonies, the honors
Of a military funeral. 1t is customary
with many companies in French regi-
ments, and especially with those sta
toned in Algeria, to have company

anything else.
These dogs supplement in Africa,
very uscfully, the work Of the sentinels
at night. They not only give warning
Of the coming of human enemy, but
also of the stealthy approach of jaclSals
and other beasts of prey.
One of these company dogs, Dellys
by name, warned the detachment to
which he belonged of an ambuscade
while on the march in hostile coun-
try. The soldiers themselves were ig

he died he was buried with military

Same uln,. About IImIng Eggs.

In lining eggs the most tedious and
ticklish part of the work is putting the
eggs in the pickle. This may be greatly
sinplified by using tin basin punched
full Of inch-holes. and large enough to
hold six dozen eggs. The edges of the
basin should be covered with leather,
and it should have a handle about
three feet long. Fill the basin with
eggs, put both under the pickle and
turn the eggs out gently; they viii all
go to the bottom without breaking.

NJ. Clough, and whyi Because he has been
intimately associated all his life with the
development of the two best American
rifles, the Remington and Winchester. For
years he was superintendent of the E. Rem
lngton 81 Sons great factory at lion, N. Y.
After leaving there he refused tempting
offer of the Chinese Government to go to
China to superintend their government fac
tories-and accepted Instead the superin-

New Haven, at a salary Of $3.50 year
II was after this long term of active labor
as business man that he found himself in
capacitated for further service by the EN-
barge which rheumatism had laid upon him
and resigned his position more than two
years ago, and returned to Belchertown
Mass, where he now lives and owns the
Phelps farm, retired spot where he has
five hundred acres of land.
Being man of means he did not spare
the cost and was treated by leading physi-
clans and by baths at celebrated springs
without receiving any benefit worth notice.
During the summer of 1898 and the winter
of 1894 Mr.. Clough was confined to his house
in Belchertown, being unable to rise from
his bed without assistance, and suffering
continually with acute pans and with no
taste or desire for food, nor was he able to
obtain sufficient sleep.
Early in the year 1894 Mr.. Clough heard
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
He began taking these pills about the first
of March 1894 aud continued to do so until
the first part of September following. The
first effect noticed wasa better appetite and
he began to note more ability to help him
self off the bed and to be better generally.
Last August QS9ii he was able to go alone
to his summer residence and farm of l63
acres on Grenadier Island, among the
Thousand Islands, in the river st. Law
