On reaching this country the Car
negies went directly to relatives living
near Pittsburg. The family of which
Andrew was Il member consisted of
four persons. father, mother. Andrew
(the eldest son. aged eleven years. and
Thomas, who died few years after
the Carnegies came to America.
The early education of Andrew Car
negie was entirely in the hands of his
mother Into his mind she inculcated
a deep love for Robert Burns.
So poor was the family on reaching
Pittsburg that young Andrew was
obliged TO be put to work. His first
employment was as bobbin boy in a
linen factory at $l2O per week. The
first money he received was given to
his mother.
During young Carnegle's employ
ment as bobbin boy he had learned to
run a small steam engine in the cellar
of the factory. His employer, finding
lie possessed this knowledge. took him
from his post in the mill and relegat-
ed him to the dingy cellar, giving him
charge of the engine.
The position did not suit Carnegie.
He wanted light and congenial asso-
citation. One day when out on his
"forty minutes leave" for lunch he
applied for position as messenger
boy in the Ohio Telegraph Company.

room twelve feet square. where lived
the whole Carnegie household on No

saw light. The Carnegie house was

was known to have n rebel tlng In the
garret. This made trouble and event

the proprietor of four damask looms
and employed two or three appre-
tices. He celebrated his prosperity
by moving downstairs. where he paid

date his growing family. Recently
Mr.. Carnegie purchased his birthplace

The great difficulty in breeding
fowls where one wishes TO breed
from certain hens of the flock and to
keep a pedigree of the fowls raised
is to distinguish the eggs of each
hen. While every hen lays an egg
that differs materially from every
other 1t is not always an easy matter
TO distinguish them, nor to tell
what hen lays n certain egg. 1t Is
only within few years that the trap
nest has been invented, which makes
possible and easy the keeping OF a
record with each hen.
The advantages of the trap nest are
many. To the commercial poultry
keeper they enable him to sort out
the non-layers of which there are al
ways some In large flock. The best
layers can be distinguished and their
eggs kept for setting and In this way
the egg record of n flock can be in
creased greatly in two or three years.
To the fancier the trap nest appeals
most strongly, for 1t enables him to
breed pedigreed stock with no dan
ger Of getting II mixed.
The trap nest Is simple contriv-
ance. 1t consists of box with
trap front so made as to close
and confine the hen when she en-
ters. She is locked in and kept there
until let out. With II numbered leg
band record can be easily kept with
each hen. The styles OF trap nests
differ materially and there are several
patented ones ON the market rs well
as several which are not patented. In
using them 1t Is necessary that the
pen be equipped entirely with them
and from one-third to one-hnlf as
many nests are needed as there are
laying hens. The hens must be let
out three or four times Il day and the
eggs removed, but other than this no
extra work Is required. The adoption
OF the trap nest will work great Inn
provement In every tiock.-New Eng
