PEEPS. CLUCKS AND CROWS.

(Gathered From Various Roosts.)
 Tact required to candle eggs.
 Feed given to vermin infested chick ems is worse than wasted.
 All the largest cockreis may be prof Hably sold at once.
 Feed the chicks early in the morn ing before they go out to forage and again just before dark. This aids in quick maturing.
 Dry earth is the best and cheapest deodorizer and absorbent Use it free ly under perches and upon coop floors.
 It is claimed that eggs can be kept fresh one year by coating with vasse- line and immersing in lime water.
 A well varied appetite means the properly balanced ration which nature requires. Young chicks are growing flesh, bone, muscle and feathers at one and the same time. One kind of food will not answer.
 Bowel troubles among young stock will be we'll nigh banished by feeding only feed during the hot season.
 Any spare ground in or about the poultry runs should be seeded now with millet, rye, oats, or clover. Dc not spare the seed and keep the birds off until the crop is we'll started. Said one little chick with funny lit
 tie sQuirm,
 "I wish I could find a nice fat worm. ' Said another little chicken, with g
 queer little shrug, s1 wish could find a nice fat bug" Said a third little chick, with a strange little squeal, q wish could find some nice yellow meal"

THE BIOLOGIST AND THE MINER.

MT. Reginald Murray, who for thirty years was a government geologist in the mines department of Victoria. Australia, in a lecture, recently deliv- cred, made some very forcible state ments regarding the relation of geol- ogy to mining.
 He spoke of the fact that but a few years ago the geologist was not in fla vor with the miner, but that the feel ing is now very much changed. This is evident to every person connected with the mining industry, but the feel ing against the geologist is not en- tirely eradicated among miners, even if there is a great change for the bet ter, as compared with the feeling thir- ty years ago.
 There. is still too much opposition by many miners. As MT. Murray said: ''The geologist collects his facts from the miner, and, from his more extend ed range of observation, he is enabled to reason with greater accuracy than the miner with a more limited experi- ence can expect to, however intelli- gent he may be-
 When this is remembered 1t can readily be seen that the miner and ge- Ologist can mutually trust and assist one another. In support of this MT. Murray said: Every great mining field presents its own peculiar features. The miner accustomed to the Silurian states and sandstones Of one mining region, does not at first think much of the auriferous quality of the recent volcanic rocks of another region, which may contain rich quartz veins.
 "A knowledge of the elementary principles of geology cannot fail to be of great service to every one in min ing. This does not imply that he should be conversant with a lot of un- pronounceable names, but simply a general knowledge of the conditions under which rocks have been formed, the various operating forces, mechani- cal or chemical, gradual or sudden, and the general relation of one group of rocks to another. Many miners, thoroughly good and experienced in practical work, entertain most crude ideas as to the operating causes of the phenomena which they encounter. For instance, they often ascribe to violent action a physical structure which is simply due to denudation."
 Such assumptions are often So mis- leading as to materially affect the suc- cess of a mining venture. Therefore the opinion of man with some knowledge of geology is essential, ii the miners want more certainty in their work than is possible when luck only is depended upon-Colliery En- gineer and Metal Miner.

UNIFORMITY IN MINING LAWS.

The non-uniformity of the mining laws of the various states of the Union is causing more or less trouble all the time. In no two states are they alike. The result is that the capitalists who understands the legal conditions under which mining operations are carried on in one state cannot with safety in vest his capital in another, until he familiarizes himself with the mine laws of that state. Again, miners who are accustomed to the mine laws of one state who migrate to another, un- Intentionally violate laws with which they are not familiar, and innocently place themselves in the position of law breakers
 A uniformity of mining laws will assist in the more rapid development of the mineral resources of many Of the states. It will also be conducive to safety, as all the miners will learn by experience. at least, what the laws enacted for their protection are, and they will endeavor to obey them. A uniformity of laws will result in a uni formlty of statistics which will make government and state reports of great CT value to those interested in mining operations. A uniformity of statistics will permit comparisons of conditions existing in'various states to be readily made and all parties interested will naturally be benefited thereby. Uni formity of mine laws will also enable certif1cated foremen to secure positions as mine foremen in any part of the country instead of confining them, as is at present the case to one state or region.
 Naturally the securing of uniform laws will be difficult task and there is but one way in which it can be ac- complished, and that is by the estab- 1ishment in the national government Of mining department the head of which should be cabinet officer The mineral products of the United States now amount in value to about S65O,- 100000 annually, and as the United States possesses greater mineral wealth than any other nation, that wealth should be taken care of in the proper way. If there was a national department of mines, scientific ques- tlons pertaining to mining could be thoroughly investigated and reported on, and the results would have ma terfal influence in making safer the miners occupation and in securing such systems of mining, etc, as would result in the nation securing a maxi mum return from her mineral wealth If a department of agriculture and a department of commerce is necessary in the national government there is no good reason for not forming a de- partment of mines and mining. This department could advantageously in. clude the United States geological sur vey. and if properly organized could materially increase the efficiency o that survey by securing uniform prac. tice in the various state geological surveys so that the latter would be O. more material assistance to the na
