FEEDING FLAVOR INTO EGGS.
(Raleigh, N. c., Post.)

There is a very general belief that
the flavor is influenced by the feed
which the hens receive. and that ma
teriais possessing strong flavors. like
onions, turnips, etc, impart an injur-
icus flavor to eggs. The truth of this
belief was shown by recent expert
ments at the North Carolina station.
Chopped with onion tops and bulbs
were fed to hens, and in fifteen days
there was change in the flavor of
the eggs. when the onion flavor was
distinctly noticeable. The amount of
onion fed was doubled for four days
and then discontinued. The eggs laid
While the larger amount of onion was
fed were so strongly favored that they
could not be used. After disseminating
the feeding OF the onions the flavor
became less noticeable. and in a week
the eggs were OF normal flavor. The
main point brought out by the tests
was that flavor can be fed into eggs
Therefore 1T appears that to insure
fnely-flavored eggs it is necessary to
restrict runs so that no considerable.
amount of food which will produce
badly-navored eggs can be obtained

densed from an article of the title at

Wilmington N. c.. Dec. 17.--From all

There are lwelvc Superior Court judges

The mainreason for the increase is

NEW BERN.
MANNING LEAVES THE COUNTY
JAIL AGAIN.

JAIL AGAIN.
New Bern, N. c., Dec. 17-Several
days ago the white man Manning. who
had previously escaped from the coun-
ty Jail. unexpectedly returned and
gave himself up. giving as reason
that he was tired OF being subject to
pursuit and arrest. AT the time of his
escape he got away in company with
another prisoner named Niles, who is
still at large.
Manning seems to have had some
other motive besides satisfying Il ten
der conscience, for Friday night he
again forsooll the sheltering arms OF
the county Jail and took along with
him In his flight fellow prisoner,
Alemy Avery. Avery is the man who
was arrested near Jasper, November
gath, for attempted assault, and was
put under $500 bonds, in default of
which he was sent to Jail. The two
men escaped by wrenching off the iron
bars to the jail window by means of
some kind of a lever which they got
hold of. Manning is not expected back
again. as his return might be miscon-
Strued.
