are good food for laying hens, but they

A variety stimulates the appetite and

One Of the unmarried women in Dip

Countess Marguerite Cassini. the ae-
complished niece OF the Russian AM
bassador who is a countess in her own
right; not by heredity, but by special
grace of the Gar. and a curious story
is told OF the manner in which she won
her title.
II was when Count Cassini had his
fateful conference with Ii Hung
Chang AT Pekin. long before the Boxer
trouble. The counts interpreter was
away. for Lis call was unexpected.
and as the Chinese statesman could
not speak Russian and the Russian Dip
lomat did not understand Chinese the
conference came TO a deadlock. The
counts niece, who had picked up some
thing of the language. stepped into the
breach and the affair was arranged TO
the satisfaction of both parties.

presents. the Cars Government made
note OF the service performed. and

Inbreeding Corn.

other stalks has been tested, with the
result that even where the pollen was

with care from the same stalk. the
yield was about half the number OF
ears. and one-third the weight Of grain
produced that resulted from cross-fcr.
tilization with pollen from other stalks
This seems 10 be an almost universal
law OF nature. and there are so few
exceptions that they are not worthy Of
