Onions for Poultry Food.

There is no vegetable that grows OF
more value to the poultryman than the
onion, says American Poultry Journal.
Doubtless it was one of the foods OF the
fowl in its natural state, as it is found
growing wild in several parts of the
world. In Illinois and Missouri we
have found 1t, both in the woods and
prairies, with sprouts short and crisp
early in the spring, that would lengthen
and tougher as the season advanced, to
bear a small Seeding onion or button"
late in the fall. We never tried plant
ing any of the button" onions of the
wild variety, but doubtless if we had
they would have produced the same
class-smaller in size perhaps-ot
onions that the sets" Of the cultivated
sorts do to-day. Be that as it may, the
onion of commerce Is a valuable addi-
ton to the list of vegetables that are
considered good for fowls. At this sea-
son of the year when the fowls are run
down by the heat of the autumn and
the strain of moulting, the onion will
be found a first-class tonic. Where
there is bowel trouble, with greenish
droppings, and dysentery, onions cut up
tolerably fine and fed as often as three
times a week will prove of great bene-
fit, and where the chickens have had
access to any unclean food and become
affected by it, such as decaying animal
matter which leads to limberneck or
old-time chicken cholera, sometimes
the feeding of onions will be found ben
eflcial although when a chicken gets Y
good chance at such stuff, and gets
big dose of it, 1t is about as good as
gone. Precaution should be taken to
have nothing of the kind on the prem
Uses. Onions boiled in with the warm
mash for the hens is good, and by in
MIGRATING and stimulating them causes
them to lay better. In fact onions as
a tonic and food is one of the simple
provisions of nature that any one can
keep handy at small cost. Don't fail
to include them in your poultry bill of
fare two or three times a week, and
oftener II the chickens appear deoili-
tated.

Tho Draft Horse.

Within the next three or four years
II Is probable that two-thirds OF all the
draft horses now doing the work of the
country will be expended in the SER
vice." and will have to be replaced,
says Southern Cultivator. There is a
great deal of talk about the progress
of invention displacing the horse, but
no trolley or bicycle has yet been found
to displace the horse. Nothing OF o
practical character has yet been dis
covered that will do the work OF the
draft horse. 1t is a class OF horses,
too, that has become notably scarce in
the country. There are very few oil
them coming on. With a revival oil
business, which is certain to come
eventually, those city firms which take
pride in having their vans, drays and
other heavy vehicles drawn by fine
heavy, snowy draft horses will be in
the market for supplies. They find
that horses of this class not only do
the work well, but are a handsome ad-
vertisement of their business. Nor Is
there much promise that they will bs
found in the near future in the exist
ing supply OF colts. Farmers and live
stock growers are looking about to FIND
some line of work that is not over
done. No one conversant with the sit
uation has any apprehension about the
draft horse business being overdont
now. The only thing that at present
prevents a genuine draft horse famine
is the general business depression thai
exists throughout the country, which
limits the demand. If the demand were
normal, the supply would be wholly
inadequate to it. The breeding of good
draft horses wherever one has mares
suitable for the work, is, therefore, SC
far as it is possible for anyone to peer
into the future, as good an opening as
the live stock grower can find.

SCIENCE OF HeRALpRY.
Tho Crest Il the True Badge of
Chivslry aud Nobility.

Chivalry and Nobility.
The real meaning OF crest seems
quite obscure to many people. The
crest is, in fact, simply the ornament
on the top OF the helmet worn by
commander, and is to distinguish him
in the confusion of battle, says the
Philadelphia Times. The mantle Is
the covering of the helmet, and Is as
inappropriate as the crest for ladies
use, excepting only persons who use 1t
as a robe Of estate. Helmets are of five
kinds, varying according to rank. The
crest is always, unless specially stated
otherwise, placed upon a wreath upon
the top Of the helmet, and is always
painted thus. The crest was In use
long before armorial bearings were, and
is the true mark of chivalry and nobil-
ity. Achievements, shield Of arms, es-
cutcheon and coat of arms are one and
the same, although achievements are
usually applied to those funeral es-
cutcheons which being placed upon the
fronts Of houses or elsewhere set forth
the rank and circumstance of the de-
ceased" A mans coat of arms is al
ways painted upon a shield, with sup
porters and crest, if entitled to a crest.
A coat of arms was "a habit worn by
the ancient knights over their armor,
both in battles and tournaments, upon
which was applied the armories OF the
knights, embroidered in gold and sill
yer, and enameled with benten tin,
colored black, green, red and blue,
whence the rule ever to apply color on
color. or metal on metal" The achieve
ments OF married women are arranged
precisely as their husbands, without
the helmet, crest, mantle or motto, the
ground always painted black under the
wife's and white under the husbands.
Spinsters' and widows arms must al
ways be painted upon lozenge. "The
achievements of widows differ from
wives in two respects-the escutcheon
is lozenge shaped and the ground is
entirely black. The arms should be
encircled by a silver Gordon" This
Gordon is the badge of widowhood,
and, Of course, should never be used
by unmarried women, though some
outside make the mistake OF painting 1t
around the arms Of spinsters. shells,
| cherubian heads and knots or bows OF
ribbon are often placed about the arms
of women, whether spinsters, wives or
widows" If an unmarried woman is
a peeress her supporters robe of es-
tate and coronet" may be added to her
arms. There are now nine different
crowns or coronets used in England
flower-de-luce, strawberry leaves and
balls forming their varying ornamental
ton, according to the varying ranks
Our American duchess of Marlborough
is entitled to her coronet, but she may
not use a crest.

partment OF Agricultural taken from
the reports of the French minister Of
agriculture, shows conclusively the ne
cessity of supplying vitalizing air to the
chick. The sensible hen cools and airs
her eggs, as must the successful incu-
bator operator. at was also found that
the eggs of fowls which were at liberty
Matched better than those of fowls
which were confined. In tests made
with an incubator it was found that
eggs which were repeatedly cooled and
warmed Matched much better than
those that were kept at a warm tenn
perature all the time. In one expert
ment the eggs were cooled by exposing
them to the air for one and one-half
hours daily during the whole period of
incubation. This treatment retarded
the period of incubation for three days.
The s6as became quite cold and it re-
CURED about twelve hours to bring
them up TO 104 deg. F., the temperature
OF incubation. In the experiment, thir-
teen out of sixteen Matched vigorous
chickens. The incubator has been pre-
viously used with unsatisfactory re-
suits. From second experiment 1t was
Inferred that the gradual heat OF the
eggs was as essential as the process of
cooling. Twenty-Five eggs which had
been laid on very warm days re
placed in an incubator and exposed to
the air, as in the preceding case. The
temperature was such that the eggs
were warmed up to 104 degrees in two
or three hours. This temperature was
maintained until the brood Matched.
The chickens pierced the shell, but they
were so weak that they died before
leaving the eggs. 1t was found that the
eggs upon which a fowl is sitting are
not all of the same temperature. those
upon the outside being cooler than
those that lie inside"
