POULTRY DEPARTMENT..
How 1t Pays to Raise Poultry for
Their Eggs.

1t may be news to some people to
learn that there is vastly more capital
employed in the egg industry in the
United States than In the mining of
gold and silver combined.
Eggs are so largely a part of the
daily diet of the people of this country
and have been SO commonly recognized
as an ordinary food supply that people
have taken them as a matter of course,
and have never considered the question
of whether the egg they eat is as nu-
tritious as they could have by a better
process of breeding.
The consequence of this is that eggs,
except for breeding purposes, have
been all classed together as either
ranch or Eastern, either fresh or pick
led, and they have been sold at one
dead level price, regardless of weight,
size or quality.
Yet the fact remains that the egg of
the better breed fowls contains SO much
more muscle feeding and blood supply
ing qualities than the common barn
yard chickens that the latter are, to use
a common phrase, mot in it," with the
others.
Some years ago efforts We're made to
have eggs sold in the East by weight
rather than Ny quantity, but it fell to
the ground as a general proposition,
though in some localities the method
vas adopted and proved successful
A mere glance at the exhibit in the
Pavilion with a mental review of the
appearance Of the common barnyard
fowl will be enough to convince any
one of the superiority of the well bred
fowls and that their eggs will prove
much more palatable and life-giving
and preserving than the ordinary ones.
The final awards in all the poultry
classes will be announced in the Rec
ord Union tomorrow.

HOMINQ PIGEON RACE.
The Great Contest to Come Off Here
To-Day.

The great contest between the hOm-
ing pigeons for flights to their cotes in
San Francisco, Oakland Alameda,
Rerkeley, Fruitvale, Mill Valley VAL
lejo and Gilroy will open at II O'Clock
this morning from Capitol Park.
1t is hoped that the weather will be
fine enough for good records to be
made Governor Budd and his staff
will be present, if possible, and there
will be about one hundred homers let
loose. There would have been several
hundred. but 1t was learned last night
that hunters on the Suisun marshe,
where the birds have been in training,
have been slaughtering them by the
wholesale.
The first prizes are a beautiful silver
cup and a gold and silver badge that
have been offered by George H. Croley
of San Francisco, who is also offering
special prizes OF the same character
for race at San Jose on the Both inst.
The birds came up last night to Sac
ramento, and will remain in the care of
Wells, Fargo & Co. aill this morning,
when they will be taken to Capitol
Park in their cotes and there liberated
by Hon. A. J. Johnston, the State
Printer.
Hcming pigeons when making their
flight as soon as the traps are opened
dart out straight at an angle Of about
ninety degrees for a distance of some
four or five hundred yards and then
circle round for awhile till they get
their bearings when they will make a
straight flight for their homes.
1t is expected that the birds will be
heard from about 1 o'clock in San
Francisco, and the prizes will be
awarded according to the time en-
ployed in reaching their destination,
the bird making the swiftest flight per
mile carrying off the first prize for its
owner.
One Of the points of interest in this
race is that the best birds will shortly
be horned on the Farallones, to be used
by the new school teacher there in
sending reports of the weather to w
II. Hammon, the local Forecast official
in San Francisco, and will therefore
become United States officers shortly.
This employment Of homers will ena
BILE the Weather Bureau to be of vastly
more Importance to this coast than it
ever has been before, as storms have
heretofore reached this coast without
any warning, and as these storms gen.
crate in the Pacific Ocean and travel

conveyed by the birds will be of inesti-
mable advantage to the people gener-
ally

After the paper has been cut to pat
tern the different parts are sewed to-
gether and hemmed, and the places
where the buttonholes are to be formed
are strengthened with calico or linen.
The stuff is very strong, and at the
same time very flexible. After gar
ment has been worn a few hours it will
interfere with the Transportation of the

The stuff is not sized, nor is it imper-

is made to tear it by hand, it presents
almost as much resistance as the thin
skin used for making gloves. London

The LegIsInture orIsez.

The first, it may not be the last, legis-
nature under the Pingree administration
has gone into history and what has it
accomplished? It was given out that
the Upper Peninsula members at a meet
ing held in Marquettecounty last fall had
decided not TO oppose any measures that
might be brought forward by the Pin
greeitee, simply because they were so
brought forward, have they done 20?
Most people who have watched their ac-
tions would probably answer they had
not. but then OF course-it cannot be ex-
pected that one can see the workings OF
the minds OF these representatives GU and
it would perhaps be unfair to accuse any
one single individual OF not having done
so, but when one sees how the vote OF
nearly all the Upper Peninsula members
went it would almost look as il they had
acted upon the slogan Of anything TO
beat Pingree," and they appear to have
succeeded in this the first innings.
The News Uncommon with many Others
thinks that Governor Pingree has not
perhaps used the wisest course IN deal.
fpg with the Legislature, not perhaps been
Tute sufficiently polite, but then he and
his advisors have been on the field and
should be and probably are. better ac-
qusinted with the moves necessary to
checkmate the moves OF their antago-
nists, there is one thing quite certain
that IL PIngree, or some other Daniel of a
elmilar mind, had not been at the helm.

1t Ia quite evident that good shaking
up OF the politics and affairs OF the State
is absolutely necessary, in whosoever

and it is to be hoped the people, not the
politicians, will bear this in mind two
years hence.

Her Trust In Signs.

An efficient but illiterate domestic
servant was brought into serious but
happily not fatal danger by her undue
confidence in the deductive system of
reasoning. This woman, being unable
to read, had long been accustomed to
discriminate between the different va
rieties of canned vegetables which her
employer supplied not by the names
printed on the labels, but by the pic
lures which they bore This plan served
well enough for kitchen needs, and it
was only when she tried to combine il
with her belief in the homeopathic doc.
trine of like cures like that trouble re.
suited. The woman suffered from rheu.
matism, and one rainy day, when
her aches were especially severe, she
came across a bottle labeled with a
few written words and print of skull
and crossbones. Immediately she rea-
soned out that the bottle contained a
medicine for complaining bones. and
she proceeded to take heroic dose Of
its contents. Two doctors and a stom-
ach pump saved the woman's life, but
she no longer sees unity Of design in
the universe, and her trust in logic is
gone forever. New York Times.
