Eggs and Egg Farming.

Eggs are getting more plenti-
full.
Frosted combs stops hens lay
ing.
Buy eggs from heavy laying
stock.
For Matching, keep eggs end
down.
Excitement and fright checks
laying.
OverGat pullets are slow at be-
ginning to lay.
A hen can pay her board with
but one egg a week.
Soft-shelled eggs are scarce
where clover is regularly fed.
Exercising costs more food
but it produces more eggs.
The color of shell does not
guarantee the flavor of the egg.
Kill the cold-storage trade by.
establishing a frcsh-egg route.
Mr.. Jacob says breed, feed
and exercise are the best ingre-
dents to make hens lay.
Put the ill-shaped eggs in the
market basket rather than use
them for Matching purposes.
A pullet fed principally on corn
will not begin laying as quickly
as one fed wheat instead.
To get IS hens to do as good
laying as 80 hens would in the
same flock, is economy in the
right direction.
Some poulterers declare that
Leghorns with large combs lay
better than those with small
ones. Can any one tell why?
p. II Jacobs says those who
pay 5 cents per dozen more for
brown eggs than for white, are
paying literally for nursing a
fai.
Number your pens, and then
put the corresponding mum Der
on the eggs you find in that pen.
1t is simple method to breed
from your best layers.
For a year round supply OF
eggs, a breed from the American
or Asiatic classes, and one from
the Mediterranean, will about do
the work. But even then there
must be early and late matches.
Owing to mild winters, the
South is in a position to make
the egg crop a profitable one.
Sending fresh eggs to the North,
while tho article is scarce here,
would mean considerably money
to the poultercr.
Hens are frequently made too
fat to lay, but not too fat for the
table, says Texas Farm and
Ranch. Old hens will become too
fat for laying almost without
provocation-just little corn
twice a day and the thing is done.
Oftener however, hens are too
lean to lay. Liberal feeding with
heterogeneous food is what is
needed.

An American heiress who has tried
living in an old English castle writes
that it is not what it is cracked up to
be. She says that she has lived in a
New England farmhouse not quite as
old as the castle. but which was far SUI
perior in comfort. convenience. safety
and beauty Even the much Wanted
ghosts are little more than household
nuisances and not half as expert or as
interesting as the American rapping
spook. The castle is generally inacces'
sible on principle, and it's rooms ara
built mainly to defy BON bardment To
get anything into the place requires re-
lays of jackasses and much mountain
climbing. Water is always at the foot
of the hill, and so is the fuel. The lowes
part of the house is a dungeon, always
damp, although the moat has been filled
ap for over hundred years, and the
upper part is stone turret that cannot
be warmed This modern bit of expert
ence is interesting as showing what the
ladies of the middle ages had to put up
with Our American lady says mo
wonder they were always making tap
estry to cover up their stone walls.

James J. Corbett is not quite happy.

taken up by men who are not in the habit
Of assocating with pugilists. Some OF
these were brokers. one or two were
bankers fairly we'll known. and all OF
them were Of such standing that their
acquaintance rather flattered the young
champion. With the profits Of bar
room to console him, he is said to regret
more than any other Of his former honors
the lost companionship of these men. The
ex-champion is quite as scrupulous now
In the matter of dress as he used to be.
When he is seen on upper Broadway in
the evenings, it is usually in dinner
coat very properly adjusted to the rest OF
his attire. His daytime dress is likely to
be the best seen about his bar, and in ev-
cry outward particular the former fighter
is as appropriate comrade as ever for
his former friends.

cult of the League Of American
Wheelmen.
= The selection Of Boston as the place
for holding the national meet of the l..
A. w. this year has proved even more
popular than was expected. 1t is found
that in addition to the many attractions
offered by this annual meeting Of league
members, large numbers of prospective
visitors are expecting to make tours
through interesting New England. There
is perhaps no locality in the country of
more interest to Americans than that of
historic Boston and Vicinity, and to
wheelmen it is particularly SO because
they can see the various places Of inter-
est with the most facility. THAT visiting
members may enjoy these attractions to
the fullest the touring department of the
league is arranging number of tours of
from two to six days duration each. The
start in each will be made after the close
of the meet, that there will be no inter.
ference with the pleasures of the affair,
and arrangements have been made with
the railroads whereby tickets issued in
all states may be extended until Aug 80,
thus allowing for tours without the pos
sibilty Of increased railroad expense
back to the point Of issue. One Of the
tours will probably be to the White
mountains, and another will be to the
Berkshires, while others will take in the
famous seaside resorts Of New England.
These tours will be in addition to the
one day trips which will take place dur
ing the meet and which will include the
places Of historic interest in the vicinity
of Boston.
Two states, New York and Connect
cut now have laws requiring police off,
Gals to accept bicycles as surety for the
appearance Of the owners in court when
any offense against bicycle ordinances
is committed. These laws were placed
upon the statutes through the efforts of
the League of American Wheelmen and
will prove of great value to all wheelmen.
A bicycle is ample security for the small
fines usually assessed for scorching, rid
ing without lamps or bells, ETC., but here
tofore in these states and in all others
many wheelmen, not being able to get
bail or without money security, have had
to lie in Jail for some time or until they
could be tried. During the sessions Of
the next legislatures the other divisions
Of the l.. A. w. will work for the pas
sage Of similar laws.
The Ohio division Of the L. A. w. has
started movement to aid in the passage
of Estate aid" good roads law ut the
meeting of the next legislature. The ag-
itation is being started now, that it may
be in full swing at the proper time.

Of the League Of American Wheelmen

OLD GLOVES.
The Many Purposes For Which They
Are Useful.

Old gloves should not be thrown away
as soon as they are discarded, for they
are still useful in number Of ways after
they are no longer fit for wear in the

their value as protection for the hands
in gardening, rowing or cleaning bicy-
Gle, and most persons have a few glove
fingers laid away in reserve for use in
case the hand is injured, but bits of

dressing to kid shoes, for making watch
cases and pen wipers and for tying over
the tops of bottles, in travelling, to keep
the stopper secure. Suspenders may be
