c. f. Langworthy says that for mar
ket, the shells Of new laid eggs should
be wiped clean, II necessary, and the
eggs graded as regards size. In some
markets brown eggs are preferred to
white. 1t is stated that In the Boston
market brown-snelled eggs, such as are
laid by Partridge Cochins, Dark Brah-
mas, Barred Plymouth Rocks, sell at
from to cents per dozen more than
white-shelled eggs, such as are laid by
Brown Leghorns, Buff Leghorns and
White and Black Minorcas. In New
York market, on the other hand, white
shelled eggs bring the higher price. 1t
is well known, however. that the color
Of the shell has no relation to the

A communication from the Tennes-
see Agricultural College says: During
the season Of 1900 eight native steers
were fattened at the experiment sta
tlon. They were Of the ordinary type
and yet gratifying results were OBJ
tained in that from Sc to $40 apiece
was cleared after liberal allowances
had been made for care, feeding, ETC.
The experiment demonstrated that cat
tie can be fed at a profit on a home
grown ration on Tennessee farms and
1t emphasized the fact that pea vine
hay has an exceptionally high feeding
value. In the slaughter test our ami
mails dressed about 55 per cent and
they were much superior to the cattle
ordinarily slaughtered in the Knox
vile abattolr. The so-called beef cattle
of Tennessee will hardly dress so per
cent, though there are today 2S6,S41
head Of cattle in this class. These ami
mails should dress 60 per cent and the
offspring Of first cross with an i'm
proved sire would easily do this. If we
consider the average weight Of these
animals as 700 pounds, it means a loss
Of 2O,O7S,S7O pounds in slaughtering,
which at the low estimate of cents
pound amounts to $500, 1860. Tennes-
see farmers are simply throwing away
this amount of money because Of a
failure to study this important ques-
tion, and it is safe to say that If the
cross indicated above were made the
profit from feeding beef cattle could
be easily doubled.

New Banks Down south.

IA fair idea of southern progress In
business Is afforded by the fact that
In the last six months 1877 banks have
been organized and commenced busi-
ness in the southern states. Texas
heads the list with thirty-four national
banks and five state banks. Virginia
and Georgia come next with twelve
banks each. Another notable feature
Of recent financial enterprise in the
south has been the organization Of nu-
merous loan and trust companies. In
nearly every southern state local capl-
tai has been invested in such concerns

Secretary Wilson In his annual re-
port says: Much interest in the Bel
gian hare has been developed during
the last three years, especially in Cali
fornia, Colorado and other Western
states. But however valuable Belgian
hares may be for meat or fur, their in
PRODUCTION in large numbers Is accom-
panied by a certain element of danger
which should not be overlooked. Some
are sure to escape, and the state board
OF horticulture Of California has esti-
mated that several thousand of the ami
mails are already at large In the state.
II they increase as rapidly when at
large as they do in captivity, they will
undoubtedly become a source of dan
ger and stringent measures may be
required to keep them under control.
Still more dangerous would be the in
PRODUCTION of the Belgian hare into
Porto Rico, where the question Of its
acclimatlzation has already excited in
terest.

Poultry Briefs.

1t will do nO harm to give the poul
try some powdered charcoal, which is
Il thing very easy to obtain on farms
where wood is burned almost exclu-
sively.
Diseased stock should be got rid OF
as 1t seldom pays to keep birds that
have been sick, AS layers they are
of little value, and as breeders they
are worse than nothing. Keep only
healthy fowls, and be sure that only
such are used for breeding purposes.
1t Is a pity that so much of the
waste material at butcher shops is per-
mltted to be lost. All the bones and
scraps should be made into poultry
feed, and the local poultry raisers
should appreciate It enough to ensure
the disposal in that way Of all the
by-products mentioned.
The attempt to export eggs in large
numbers has been about given up. A
year ago considerable quantities were
being sent across the Atlantic in the
hope Of a large profit from English
buyers. But the consignments failed
to draw the prices anticipated, and
the exporters are said to have lost
Hutchinson gazette., 1901-05-16

money, comparing prices received In
England to the prices that might have
been obtained In tho United States for
the same eggs, II 10 the same with the
Cgg trade as II Is with the trade In
butter-the home market ecllpses the
foreign market, and as long as this Is
the case the results OF expectations will
bo always the same, This spring few
eggs have been exported,
Some poultrymen that have fancy
trade, consisting OF well-to-do private
customers, get into the habit OF buy
Ing eggs from other producers to keep
the supply equal to the demand, The
ultimate outcome OF this Is the loss
OF the fancy trade through the dete-
rloration of stock sold, the bad eggs
of neighbors getting into the lots
labelled strictly fresh"
The American consul at Berlin says

Reports from England say that the
growth Of the poultry industry there
Is hampered by the government pro-
lection Of foxes. A report issued by
the secretary Of the National Poultry
organization says; "a question which
has pressed itself forward the past
year is that of fox hunting, so
far as 1t affects poultry keep
Ing, That the preservation OF
foxes is repressive is acknowledged,
Too long this question has been ig-
nored, and, as q result, the growth
of this industry is checked in certain
districts, Loud complaints are made
by the farmers as to their losses, and
by hunters as to unfair claims on the
hunt funds, But the difficulty is ca
pable of solution, provided that to the
houses out in the open, small runs are
attached, in which the birds can be fed
at night and enclosed without the la
Dor entailed by second visit to close
them up, The cost is small, and were
this system universally adopted, the
loss Of birds would be reduced to
minimum, whilst the hunts could rea-
sonably be asked to pay fair value
for such birds as are killed by foxes
This is a most astonishing condition
of affairs, nearly as bad as In some Of

CARE OF LAcES.

Iron lace on the right side first, then
on the wrong side to throw up the pat
tern.
When putting lace away, fold as little
as possible. \ good plan is TO wind it
round n card. as they do in the shops.
When ironing laces. cover them with
clean, white tissue paper. This pre-
vents the shiny look seen on washed
lace.
Use contour instead OF ordinary
starch for stiffening laces. This makes
them firm and does not detract from
the lacy appearance.
Laces and other delicate trifles should
he placed in a muslin bag before being
boiled. This prevents their getting lost
and torn in the wash.
After getting up laces do not leave
them TO air in Il damp PLAYGROUND
the fire when the kettle is boiling. for
instance. This robs them of their fresh
ness and makes them look limp.
All laces before being ironed should
be carefully pulled out, each point re-
ceiving attention. You will be repaid
for your trouble. as the lace will look
twice as nice and last clean much
longer time.
