A Hens Brood OF Quail.

While Mr.. ]. T. Stuart, prosperous
farmer living near Knoxville, Tenn,
was moving his grass this summer, the
which was setting on her nest. A
broken egg showed that the eggs would
have been Matched in few days. A
little daughter of Mr.. Stuart's took the
eggs and carefully put them under a
hen, whose eggs were to hatch in a
day or two. Fourteen of the quail eggs
Matched and sixteen Of the hens. For
a week or two the young quail went
under the hen at night, as the chick
ems did; after that they roasted in one
corner Of the coop by themselves.
The little girl fed and looked after
them, and they seemed to have no fear
Of her, but would come and jump in
Der hand The moment anyone else
came about they would run and hide.
Their favorite hiding place was under
the chickens, and sometimes two or
three would try to get under one chick
en-. and in their efforts to hide would
completely upset it. After they could
fly fairly well they took up their abode
in the garden, but would always come
to the little girls call of "Chick, chick,
chick" and IL at distance would fly
and alight at her feet When they were
quite small an old cock quail came for
several days and tried to toll them
away, but they would not go with him.
They are now full grown, and all are
living but one, which killed itself
against a wire gate only few days
ago.-Forest and Stream.
