 Bernhardt on Morris
 During Sarah Bernhardt's last visit to this country she aVailed herself of an op- portunity of seeing Clara Morris play "Camille" She had heard great deal of the distinguished American actress, and was anxious to see her ill role which was a great favorite of hers. If there was any role of which the great French artist assumed the right to be a critic 1t was this. She had herself in- vested it with a hundred cunning and original beguilements. It had passed in to her keeping under the eyes of the author in the critical and Stimulative att mosphere of the French theater, with an tailed tradition of genius. She knew every move, and had measured with un- exampled sagacity every thrill and gasp as we'll as every fold and filament of it's wrappage. When she saw the American woman come on, almost haltingly, care lesly dressed to a French eye, and wholly indifferent to all the exquisite tricks of demeanor and costume, she smiled, This, then, was the American Camille. Where was the salon air, the De Medici effrontery the cocotte- ebulliency, the Par.s.an extraVa gance, the Wanton splendor? It compared in her mind with the French Camille as Chicago, the city of coachmen, compared with Paris. She made remarks with a pitiful and indul- gent humor. She thought of Sainte Beuve when Clara Morris tried to man age her skirts. She thought of Racine when she tried to speak her lines. She felt that she was going to be slightly bored.
 But there came moment in the per- formance when she began to intently re- gard the woman before her. I think It was that moment when Armand's father arrives. And from that point on the great French actress did exactly what thousands of American spectators had been doing all along-she forgot all about French art in the unique poignancy and unexamped literalness of mental and physical agony that Clara Morris pre- sented There were a hundred things that Bernhardt could do with her intel ligence and quick sagacity that nobody else could do; but she could not command the blood back from the capillaries to the heart She could not suffuse her eyes with grief She could not put that throb into her cheek. nor that quiver into her lip and chin. Mon Dieu" she ex- claimed. this woman is not acting, she is sufferne!'
 Bernhardt was quick to see and ac- knowledge that here was power that fell outside the studied stimulation of the stage entirely and she gave to 1t promptly the tribute of phenomenalism.

Money in Common Pigeons.

Breeding com mon pigeons for profit
is fairly remunerative business, and the
boys on the farm should look after it as
good means of bta lining pocket money.
The common white pigeons are the most
profitable. They are worth So TO IS per
dozen, and are used by taxidermis,s,
who sell them for ornaments at we'd
dings, funerals, etc. Shooting matches
consume many pigeons, and in large Cit
les there is go ID demand for squads,
which usually bring So per dozen. A
loft thirty by twelve feet will accommodate
fifty to seventy five pairs of breeding
birds. They must be regularly and W. II
fed or they will skip and find their prov
ender elsewhere. One pair of health y
breeders ought to rear from five to twelve
pair Of young every year,-The Ameri-
can Fancier.

Compact Birds.

By carefully observing the chicks that
were Matched this year it will be found
that the late ones are more compact In
appearance, and have shorter legs than
those Matched early, even when both
the early and late ones are from the
same parents. The early chicks will get
their height before filling out, but the
late ones will not grow in height any
longer than the appearance of frost, but
they tricken in body and appear COM
pact. In reality they are not as heavy
or as large as the taller early chicks, their
shorter legs simply giving them the
appearance of strong, heavy chicks.
They will never become any larger, as
the winter usually ends their growth.

been frequently discussed and IS open
for more information at all times from
those who have experimental in that
direction. 1t is usually the result of
conf1ne ment and idleness. 1t was once
supposed that lack of some kind of food
caused the hens to pull. feathers, but it
has been found that hens kept under all
conditions are guilty. They nearly al
ways begin by pulling feathers from the
neck of the male. One hen starts the
habit and the others soon learn. Then
the hens begin to gull feathers from one
another. They cannot produce new
feathers and eggs at the same time, and
flock of feather pullers are therefore
Improbable.
There is no sure remedy. The first
hen caught at it should be killed.
s me smear the bare places with tar,
and others trim the edges of the upper
and lower mandibles so that the hens
cannot hold feather. Others separate
them, confiniDg them two weeks, The
cheapest preventive is to keep the hens
at work; but as cure Is difficult, it is
best to send them to market and begin
anew-Farm Poultry.

New Breeds VS.. Old.

A correspondent of The Farm and Fire
side asks if the new breeds of fowls are
distinct Improvement over the older
and better known ones.
The editor answers: | am compe lied
to answer without hesitation that they
are not. On the contrary. there is hardly
one Of the new breeds that is as good as
some of those that have been recognized
by the "Standard Of Perfection" since
it was first esta blished.
New breeds are all right in their place,
but they are not among the necessities,
and are usually pulled ty their origlna-
tors or promoters far beyond their real
merits.
A farmer who breeds poultry for money
has po need for a new brand, for he is
rarely ever prepared 10 advertise or show
them at the big shows; and because of
this state of affairs cannot sell at the
very high prices that he must get in
order to come out even in the course of
"A year.
There IS no new breed that will grow
to greater size or be more beautiful when
fully grown than the lordly Light Brah-
mas. This is one of the oldest breeds,
aud whether taken for their practical
utility or for beauty and stateliness there
are few breeds that equal them. They
are not tie best layers among fowls, but
they are as good as any of the larger
breeds and better than most of them.
When it comes TO size, thew stand at the
head among domesticaUed fowls.
There is no new breed that will pro-
due as many ggs as anyof The Leghorn
or Hamburg family. The Leghorns are
hardy, pretty, and quick to mature,
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-09-30

They produce as many eggs as any other
breed, and the eggs are as large as those
of the Brahmas.
The Hamburgs are a little inclined to
be tender when young, and are the quick
est to take Cold and contract Group and
other kindred diseases of any of the
breeds.
The breeder does not need to originate
breed or buy into it as soon as il is
offered, for the most famous poultry fan
ciers in this country are men who have
bred the oldest breeds, but have exer-
cised patience in perfecting their favor
ties, until the fact that they bred bird
of that breed doubles it's value.
To say that Ftlch or Williams or Mrs.
Judy bred a certain Light Brahma is to
give it value much beyond what it would
bring in the open market, be cause every =
one knows that Light Brahma that
either of them allowed to leave their
yards must be good one and one that
they are willing to bear their name.
If Mr.. Bennett breeds White Faced
Black Spanish fowl, it is Immediately
acknowledged to be valuable one, for
if it had not been it would never have
found it's way into public view.
This sort of reputation does not come
from paying high prices for eggs or bu;
ing them from a wel,-known breeder 1t
comes from years of patience in perfect
ing breed, and the skill acquired in
that time in knowing the good points of
fowl and making them more prominent.
Anyone who will use The same patience
may acquire as good reputation as any
of these, and it is not necessary to begin
with nigh priced new breeds either. The
older breeds can be bought at reasonable
prices, and are better for the beginner
than the ones which have not been bred
long enough to become perfect and trans
NIT their good qua lities to their progeny.

Improving Kerosene Mixtures

1t is compile ined that the kerosene
emulsion is not sure destroyer of lice
in the poultry house, but that by add
ing one-fourth crude carbolic acid to
the unadulterated kerosene the emulsion
is perfect. The cause of failure may be
due to not using the kerosene fire quently.
One application is not sufficient, as the
emulsion should be applied daily until
all lice are destroyed.

Compelling Fl MS to Exercise

F.ocks that have been so kindly
treated that the mem bers thereof rely
upon their regular daily supply from
their owner will never give satisfaction
in egg production until heroic remedies
are applied, and the sooner that is done
the more time will be saved. Hens
that have been we'll fed are too fat to
lay. Their combs will be bright and
red, md they may appear thrifty, but
when they are verv fat the owner will!
wait quite while before he will get
many eggs from them. There is but
one course to pursue, and that is to cut
off the supply Of food until the hens are
willing to work. A hen that is fat will
not starve until the stored fat on her
body is utilized, as this reserve of
warmth is just so much carbonac eous
TODD in the form Of fat. Begin by Civ
ing no tood at ALL For a day or two
the hens will insist on your supplying
them. At the end of two days scatter
gill of mlliet or rape seed In the litter.
Hunger will induce them to work.
Withhold the food for week or ten
days, or until they have lost weight.
They will then have concluded that
they must work, and by then feeding
them judlciously they will begin TO lay
and continue to do so if properly cared
for.

Sand and Grit.

Sand is no substitute for gravel, and
the mixing of sand in the food is useless.
When coarse grit is swallowed by fowls
1t is voided before it becomes as fine as
sand. Gtit provides the me chanical ap-
pliances for grinding the food in the giz-
zard. 1t really cuts the food, hence the
sharper the edges the m ore it is preferred
by poultry. When the grit becomes
worn until round and smooth it is passed
on as useless. In using grit, therefore,
endeavor to secure that which is hard
and sharp.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-09-30
Broilers and Hard Work.

All who have attempted to hatch
chicks and raise broiers with incubators
and breeders admit that the work is
tedious and labOriouS and that constant
care-day and nights necessary. In
the winter, however, when large num-
Der are seeking work, it is as profita BILE
to apply labor in broler raising as in
any other direction. 1t is the work that
makes the business pay, and tits because
so many have endeavored to save labor
that they have not succeeded. Why do
broilers sometimes sell for so cents per
pound? Because it requires so much
hand work and risk TO raise them, and
because over one-half of the young
chicks die before they are six weeks old.
1t is the heavy loss of young chicks that
entails the cost, and this loss can only
be averted by constant care. The high
prices for broilers compensate for the
labor, for if there was but little labor
required the supply would be much
greater than the demand. Broiler rails
ing in winter, therefore, is a means Of
employment, and it will pay any farmer
to endeavor to learn how to hatch and
raise chicks by artificial modes, deter.
mining, however, not to spare labor in
the enterprise.
