FOK REIMBURSEMENT OF TIMES.
A bill, introduced by Mr.. Sands. Is pro-
badly the most important OF the session
thus far. 1t provides for the appointment
by the Board OF Public Works of board
OF equalization, to consist OF three per-
sons, whose duty II shall be to visit the
several counties and cities OF the Com
monwealth and inspect and examine the
lands therein and after comforting with
the several land assessors. TO determine
the fair cash value of the lands and either
to Increase or diminish the assessment
as seems best 1t is provided that such cor
rected assessment shall be the basis or

also TO have power to eaualize the assess
ment OF personal property.

tion that much real property is assessed
above its value. and that much Of the

The whole Big show

Mr.. A. J. Bailey and the Sells Brothers
have provided themselves the kind of men
that never do anything by halves, conse-
quently the complete great Adam Fore
paugh and Sells Brothers consolidated
shows will be here-every animal, every
act every rare feature, and every
unique and exclusive attraction. As a
matter of sound business policy, as well as
of common justice, our people are entitled
TO just as much for their money as those
of any other locality, and they will get it.
All silly or false rumOrs TO the contrary,
it may be stated right here that no tented
show was ever divided, or ever will Or can
be. 1t is simply preposterOus and physi-
cal impossibility. The great amusement
enterprise will, therefore, be in Johnstown
on Thursday, April 22d, and in Altoona on
Friday, April 23d, just as advertised.
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1897-04-16

The Pittsburg riHcs philosopher makes
this note about the hen and its work:
According TO the estimate based on the
last census and on careful independent in
vestigation, the hen of the United states
produces no less than Iii coo 900 dozens
of eggs per year, and her total contrbu
tion to the wealth of the nation in II
months amounts to S343.OOO.OOO. That
means over - for every man, woman and
child in the nation, aud over $50 for every
family. 1t will thus be seen that the hen.
who is now so buSilY laying the fOunda-
tiOns for Easter Indigestion, is very i'm
poryant figure in the commercial activity
of the country, and that her departure
from her sphere of activity would cause
an aching void that would be hard to fill.
Just now, perhaps, owing to the early de-
velOpment of spring, the hen is somewhat
overingdOing the egg industry, which
while il is beneficial to the consumers is
not encouraging to the owners of hens.
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1897-04-16
How to Tell Fresh Eggs.

A correspondent of the Dakota Farmer
asks, lis there any sure way of diStin-
gushing perfectly fresh eggs from tainted
ones, or those that have been set upon 10y
hens for several days? Gambling is
quite a sure method, but if there is a way !
should like to know it, The following
reply is given: To the experienced eye,
the rOughish, or granulated, surface of the
perfectly fresh egg distinguishes it at once
from the more shiny or polished surface
of the egg that has been under the hen a
dav or two. We can pick out every fresh
egg among a nestfuI of those that have
been sat on for two days, even in the dark
The secret is very simple. just scratch
over the surface with the finger nail; if
i; CRATES, the egg IS fresh, but if the nail
slides smoothly the egg is old. A little
practice makes this a sure test"
