The late Governor Albeit held two
terms at Trenton, from 1884 to 1886, and
from 1890 to 1892. While the average
expenditures of his Democratic admins
tration were 81, $50, 600 a year, that of the
Republican administration of Governors
Griggs and Voorhees,, averaged over a
million dollars a year, and frequently
more, though these precious "reformers'
saved the expense OF the publication Of
the laws in the newspapers which had
been published during Abbett's admins
t%ration, as the following figures prove:
For 1898, So, 29s, 443. 40; for 1899, 50, 1885,
O71.85; for 1900, 50, 701, 226.97; for 1901,
$2,626, 500. 90; for 1902, S. S9, 1882 We

The clearest defined issue in the guber-
material contest is that of municipal cleo
tions in the fall with the state and ma
tional elections. James NJ. Seymour, the
Democratic candidate declared in his let
ter OF acceptance for the repeal of the
Meeker law which makes city elections
IN the fall. Franklin Murphy, the Re
publican candidate in regards to the ques-
ton says: 81 was an active advocate of
the anti-Spring election law. | had OBJ
served in Elizabeth and other cities that
the people were ceasing to take any inter
est whatever in the Spring elections, and
this lack OF interest frequently became a
travesty. Having the municipal and
gubernatorial election together, has arous-

tally in Essex, Hudson, Camden and 9TH

Formula Used by Dealers !
Preserving Eggs. IA

Numerous methods Of pre-
serving eggs are in use. The
idea Of all of them is to Keep air
out of the eggs, as by such alb
sence of oxygen decay can be
arrested for a considerable
length of time, especially if the
eggs are perfectly fresh at the
start and are kept in a cool, dark
place. The standard method
most used by spectators and
dealers is to put eggs in lime
water. The process is as fol-
lows, this recipe having been
widely sold at SIS under pledge Of
secrecy:
Take two gallons of water,
twelve pounds of unslaked lime
and four of salt, or in that pro-
portion according TO the quantity
of eggs TO be preserved. Stir
several times daily and then let
stand until the liquid has settled
and is perfectly clear. Draw or
carefully dip off the clear liquid,
leaving the sediment at the bot
tom. Take for the above
amount of liquid five ounces each
Of baking soda, cream Of tartar,
salt peter and an ounce of alum.
Pulverize and mix these and dis
solve in one gallon of boiling
water and add to the mixture
about twenty gallons of pure
lime water. This will about fl
a cidar barrel. Put the eggs in
carefully so as not to crack any
OF the shells, letting the water
always stand an inch above the
eggs, which can be done by
placing a barrel head a little
smaller upon them and weight
ing it. This amount of liquid
will preserve $50 dozen of eggs.
1t is not necessary to wait to get
full barrel or smaller package
of eggs, but they can be put in
at any time that they can be OBJ
tanned fresh, The same liquid
should be used only once

Dack Brahmas.

tOl their 1aVOrlteS. This is eS-
pecially so relative to the Barred
Plymouth Rock and Light Brah-
ma, which well the blowers and
admirers can consistently do, as
too much cannot be said. And
# to date there is anything unsaid
regarding the birds, let us have
it at once. We have, however,
several praiseworthy birds in the
Standard, outside of those Just
mentioned, that are sorrily neg
Ilected. For exam pie, the Dark
Brahma lisa bird which possesses
as many good qualities as do
any Of the other Asiatics, still,
comparatively little is seen in
print and show room, of this
most noble bird. Why this state
of affairs exists l cannot under
stand. l therefore hope and
wish that those who know will
explain.
The main reason for certain
birds having achieved greater
popularity over some other
standard varieties, and still hold
the fort in their respective class,
is not because the same birds
possess exclusive merits over all
the others, but more on account
of certain wide-awake fanciers
and breeders who have taken
hold, and by persistency and
hard work have pushed their re-
spective fancy to the front, re-
CARELESS of the views of others.
Whether their labor has been
successful, financially or other
wise, the popularity and past
record of the Barred Plymouth
Rock and Light Brahma does
best attest.
Breeders like Felch and Corn
ing have made the Light Brah-
mas great favorites, while breed
ers like Hawkins, Pitkin and
others have made the Barred
Plymouth Rock the most popu-
lar of all fowls to-day.
Why the Dark Brahma does
not hold relative popularity with
the public at large, as they de.
serve and merit, rests entirely
with those who have bred them
in time past. Breeders of the
| Dark Brahma, as a class, must
be dead or nearly so, as they are
but seldom seen or heard from.
have often heard remarked:
"Why, l would like to breed the
Dark Brahma; ! like them; the
birds are handsome; but l will
not take hold of them because
the bird is one too hard to breed
up to standard requirements, :"
etc. Which is only a false i'm
preston or conception, gotten
up by some few who failed
through lack of care, and indif-
ference of the breeds require
ments, or by some who have
never bred the Dark Brahma, or
merely for the sake of saying
something against the breed and
to appear wise, and for the sake
of booming their own favorites.
Come to facts, we all know that
it is no child's play to breed high
scoring, typical birds of any
standard, parti-colored breed,
without care and system in mat
ing. Close to 90 per cent. of my
Dark Brahmas last season scored
90 or better, and, judging from
appearance, the per cent this sea-
son will be even greater, and
from single mating, too.
/ now wish to ask those who
are oppose to the Dark Brahma
to give one tangible reason for
the faith within them. Is it be-
cause in your vision there is
nothing in the breed or one not
handsome to look at? In either
case | beg todiffer. Cor instance.
