DeLUsION OF The NEST EGG.
The Laying Hen Has no Use For

A writer 10 the Rural Califor-
MAN has demonstration to his
own satisfaction that the nest
egg is unnecessary. He says:
A subscriber says: note in
. poultry journal the EDITORS ad-
wee IN re@ard 20 the use Of uest
eggs. lie says don't use either
good or bad eggs but china of
composition "eggs" that can not
he broken.
| It has always puzzled me to
know why any kind of an egg,
real or artificial, should be used
as an inducement to a hen to lay
where it may be located. When
a hen gets ready to lay there is
no way to prevent the perfor-
nance except by killing her, and
| the nest eggs ,ver devised
can not make her lay before she
gets ready. Il is said that a
coy nest in which nice, clean
artificial nest egg is placed is at
tractive to the biddy in the lay
ing mood and that she will care
fully step int2 it and deposit her
treasure, while, if the nest egg
were not present, she would hes
itate Tor quite while and fnal-
Ily lay under the gooseberry
bush.
Several years ago / conducted
an experiment to determine the
magnetic properties of false nest
eggs. A row Of comfortable
nests were arranged on one side
of the hen house, and in one of
them beautiful o5long china
nest egg was placed. The house
/
was thrown open to the score of
hens that we're in the egg BUSH
ness, and ] established myself in
secret place Ia witness the re-
suits. Three Of the hens enter
ed the house, scrutinized the
new departure and seemed to
agree that the nests were entire
lily satisfactory. They casually
Inspected lne nests and when one
of The maternal biddies was at
tracted by the glistening china
egg it was very interesting to
note her capcrs. She turned her
head sideways and stretched her
neck 10 get close to the "egg"
without moving her feet. She
seemed 70 be reasoning the case
and wondering what manner Of
hen laid the curious egg, Pre-
sently she reached the conclusion
that il was delusion aud a snare,
so She entered a nest five nests
away and planted an egg worth
dozen of the china variety.
When she had taken a glance at
her own product and that of the
false egg manufactures there
was an air Of pride in her cautious
exit, as if she wanted to say what
evidently she thought that you
may fool some hens but you can't
fool me.
Well, the other hens SEED vi
that china egg about as carefully

just mentioned, and they wen
elsewhere 10 lay their eggs.
