Keeps Hens ON the Move Until They give
Up an Egg.
From England comes the news of
new and ingenious way to make hens
Law. The plan has only just heen put
into operation, but already it has been
attended with some measure of success.
Its inventor is a young man named
Herbert Demands, of South Totten-
ham. one of the districts of London.
who was driven 10 hatch this device
out Of his fruitful mind because of the
worriment his hens caused him. Day
after day they would not lay, and they
flouled and they secuted him by walk
ing around and taking things very
easily, much to his financial loss. So
he put his wits together and made these
domestic bipeds walk the treadmill''
until they laid.
His machinery, an elaborate bit of
carpentering. consisted of what is
called in England "hen rum which
was a sort of Midway Piaisance for
poultry. 1t was beautifully working
miniature treadmill. \ hen who had
done her full duty was allowed the full
privileges of the run; hen who had
not. and from whom Mr.. Demands con-
sidered an egg 10 be due, was placed,
in spite of all her futtering, upon the
treadmill, and made TO walk it until
she evened up her score and delivered
an egg. The weight OF the new laid
would act upon spring and the hen
would then be liberated 10 the enjoy
ment of the run"
Not quite all the details have come to
hand as yet, but this much is Known.
that the poultry treadInill was a great
success, and a sure shot to get eggs
on demand. The only thing a hen
could do, once placed within, was to 60
up and up until. she got over her sulks
and was ready to deliver the egg
Had it not been for a most imp. easant
misadrenture on Mr.. Demands part
he might be celebrated among poultry
inventors to-day. Instead of that he
is now doing "a months hard" in the
local workhouse, where most of his
time is taken up in walking the tread
mill himself. For, lacking the lumber
chesuer being slightly low in eonse-
quence of the ingratitude of his poul-
try, he appropriated his building ma
terials from a stock of wood that had
been stored in the immediate vicinity
to be used as flooring for some Lew
houses. The theft was not DISCOVERED
until after the poultry run" was COM
- = L.,
owners of the lumber were exceedingly
wro.h, and, refusing to recognize fud-
ding genius, they put the case in mag
istrate's hands at once.
So the treadmill for feathered bipeds
has now been torn up, and the hens are
pu1-s .Iing their life of ease in the ordi-
nary manner. Mr.. Demands VIII soon
be out of Jail, however, and viii then
construct a run" on even larger scale
than before, taking care this time to Sc
cure bis lumber legitimately.-N. Y.
