SPECIALITY FARMING.
II Draws Constantly ON the Fertility
of the Soil without Permit
ting Renovation.

Speciality farming means devotiny
the larger part of the time to the pro-
duction Of one crop. This crop may be
wheat, corn or cotton and there are
large sections in this country devoted
almost wholly TO one or another of
these crops. One years failure of the
special crop of any of these sections
means serious inconvenience to farm
ers, and failure for two or more sue
cessive years leads to ruin. From the
orange groves of Florida and the cane
lands of Louisiana to the wheat fields
of North Dakota the speciality farmer is
liable to work without profit because of
barren years or low prices. 1t is true
that each section is better for some one
crop than for any other, and it is good
policy to devote considerable part Of
the time and the farm to that crop. The
good farmer will endeavor to learn
which crop is the most profitable, and
that having been settled he will try to
learn everything that is to be known
about that particular crop. AT the same
time he will learn something concern
Ing every other crop which he can
grow, in order that he may diversity his
productions as much as possible.
Speciality farming is always destruc-
tive farming, as IL makes rotation Of
crops impossible and draws constantly
on the fertility of the soil without per-
mitting renovation except by the direct
application of fertilizers, costly way
Of maintaing fertility, no matter what
is used for this purpose.
The farmer who plants variety oi
crops, keeps sheep, cattle and hogs and
takes good care of everything, is al.
ways ready for any season or any pc
culiar condition of the markets. He
may not have any especially fat years
but he will never have total loss to con
tend with and on the whole will have
greater profits and fewer losses.-

THE RENOVATED EGG.
New Grade of Hens Fruit Has Just
Made It's Appearance In the Cheap
Shops of London.

The "family doctor" is responsible
for new terror. This is the renovated
egg. We are all familiar with the ordi-
nary gradations of the egg-the new.
laid egg, the fresh egg, the breakfast
egg, the family egg and the cooking
egg. And, after these, used to come
simply the "egg," of which the pur-
veyor could not even boast that it was
good enough to cook with, but the pur-
chaser could not deny that it really was
an egg. This was the class of egg used,
so some aver, to give the gloss to con-
fectioners' pastry; and below even the
rank Of commercial utility there was
still the election egg, handy missile
whose demerits as comestible became
virtues when exploded upon an opposi-
ton platform. Here, one might have
thought, we had reached the very low
est depths of eggdom; but it seems
that there is yet another grade, namely,
the renovated egg. This is an egg
which has become too palpably stale,
Boiled and mildewy in appearance to
be sold under any appellation what
ever until composition of diluted Wit
riol has been applied to it. Then the
shell puts off its hues of decay and
CLEANS with maiden snow-white
purity that tempts the too trustful
passer-by.
The vender will not exactly guaran-
tee that the eggs are new-laid, but
they've just come in, and you can see
for yourself, ma'am, what they're like"
So the purchaser purchases; but, alasl
the virtues of the diluted vitriol have
not penetrated beyond the shell, and it
is distressed lodger who rings up the
landlady to tell her that the breakfast
egg which she has provided ought to
have been an election egg at least a
month previously.-London Globe.

Make it point to have your poultry
Of the best quality before shipping to
market, says the New York Produce
Review. One who is not accustomed to
visiting the large markets knows moth
ing of the enormous amount of inferior
poultry that is sold and which largely
Affects the prices, yet there is always
a demand for that which is good and at
price above the regular quotations.
The asserting of the carcasses before
shipping also leads to better prices. Old
rcosters, which seldom sell at more
than half price, should not be in the
same boxes or barrels with better stock,
and to ship poultry alive and have
roosters in the coop with fat hens is
simply to lower the price of the hens,
as the buyer will estimate the value by
the presence of the inferior stock. In
fact, never send any poultry to market
unless in first-class condition, and un-
der no circumstances ship the inferior
with that which is better. #

Electrical sterilization.

Electric sterilization of water has
been successfully practiced in Germany.
The water taken from the Bruges canal
at Schoorebrugge is first filtered in the
usual manner, through beds of different
kinds of sand, and is finally pumped
through sterilizers, being there subject
ed to the influence of an electric current
at a pressure of 1000 volts. 1t is stated
that by this means all traces of mi-
crobes are entirely destroyed, and the
pure water is distributed to the in
habitants Of Blankenberg by means Of
the system previously in use. About
$4,000 cubic feet are treated per day in
summer, this volume falling to about
10000 cubic feet per day in winter. The
electrical installation has an output Of
So horsepower.

PHYSICAL STRENGTH.
In Man 1t Reaches Its Greatest Devel-
opment between the 3Oth and
3Ist Years.

The muscles, in common with all the
organs Of the body, have their stages of
development and decline, says the
Strand Magazine. Our physical
strength increases up to certain age
and then decreases. Tests of the
strength Of several thousands of people
have been made by means of dyna-
mometer strength measurer), and the
following are given as the average fig
ures for the white race; !
The "lifting power" of youth Of II
years is $50 pounds. In his twentieth
year this increases to 800 pounds, and in
the thirtieth and thirty-frst years 1t
reaches its height, 1855 pounds. At the
end Of the thirty-frst year the
strength begins to decline, very slowly
at first.
~ BY the fortieth year 1t has decreased
eight pounds, and this diminution con-
tinues at a slightly increased rate until
the tiftieth year is reached, when the
figure is 800 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more and more rapidly, until the weak
ness Of old age is reached. It's not pos
sible to give accurate statistics Of the
decline of strength after the tiftieth
year, as It varies to large extent in
dlierent individuals.

sinks for Farm kitchens.

Every farmers kitchen should be fur
nished with sink, into which both hard
and soft water should be brought by
pumps. 1t is not always convenient 10
have the well water thus brought, but
there is no reason why the cistern water
should not be. The sink should connect
with drain for the carrying away Of
waste water. If water must be brougS
into the house in pals, it surelyis too
much to ask that it be carried out in the
same manner and thrown on the ground
to make spot offensive TO sight and
smell and breeding place for flies. Al
one end of the sink iorg, broad shelf
makes good place to put dishes as they
are wiped, and under this should be
drawers for dish wipers and kitchen
aprons, and cupboard for teapot and
coffee pot.

There is partiality for soft foods, be-
cause by their use many substances in
fine condition can be given; but It is
a mistake to feed soft food oftener than
once day to three days in the week.
Too much soft food causes the gizzard
to be idle, and, being deprived of its use,
the fowl becomes diseased. The giz-
zard is an organ that performs GER
tain duty, just as is required Of the
heart or liver, and any system of feed
ing that takes largely from the gizzard
the duty which devolves upon It will in
the end prove detrimental. tits not out
of place to allow soft foods, but the
larger proportion of the food should be
unground, so as to keep the gizzard ac.
tive; hence whole grains are essential
to success. When too much soft food
is allowed the crop frequently remaina
full and food does not pass through the
