obtained a much greater development
than the others, and whereas the veg
etable apparatus, outside of extraordi-
nary vigor, kept its ordinary character,
the fruit changed its form completely
and acquired the heightened and shin
ing form of the aubergine subject, al
though it was much less long and
large. The reverse graft Of the au-
begine on the tomato gave an equally
original case. A long violent auber-
CINE grated on a large red tomato
furnished at one time three kinds Of
fruit. some normal, shining, length
ened, and slightly pear-shaped, others
ovoid and shining, and a fruit nat
tened at the top and ribbed as the
fruit Of 20 tomato.
The following case is still more GU
|rlous. There is at BrouvauX, near
Metz, medlar tree more than one
hundred years old, which is grated Oh
hawthorne. and a little above the
graft the subject, that is, the haw-
thorn. has given birth to a branch OF
metllar. this branch differing from the
grated part Of the tree In the sense
that II has thorns and that in place OF
producing single flowers lne latter are
united in an infiorescence having MS
many MS twelve white flowers similar
to those of the medlar. The fruits are
those of the medlar, but they are very
small and fiat. '-

HINTS ON FEEDING POULTRY.

Sitting hens should be as well fed
as those that are laying, but the feed
ing should be different Grain should
be left where they can get it when
ever they desire to come off the nest
This is done not only as a matter Of
convenience, but also to insure the.
hens getting all they want to eat and
also to get them into the habit of
coming Off regularly; which they will
be more apt to do IL they know tn
food is always obtainable. 1t is bet'N
ter to. feed all whole grain In good
variety, such as corn, oats and wheat.
The reason is that all the food a sit.
ting hen requires is for her bodily
maintenance. She is a non-producer
and will therefore be able to satisfy
her needs without soft food, vegeta.

will be, a benefit The danger lies in
feeding so much vegetable food as to
loosen the bowels or so much meat as
to stimulate a desire to discontinue

FOR LIGHTWEIGHT
CHAMPIONSHIP.

San Francisco, Cal, May 26.-Joe
Cans of Baltimore, who wrested the
lightweight championship from Frank
Erne a year ago, will defend that title
at the Yosemite Athletic Club this
week, in a twenty-round contest with
Willie Fitzgerald of Brooklyn, who
recently gave Jimmy Britt such a hard
fight. Fitzgerald, as compared with
Cans, is but little more than a novice
in the fighting game. Nevertheless, in
his short career he has displayed a
prowess that has attracted widespread
attention in sporting circles. That
Fitzgerald is clever is admitted on all
sides. He is quick on his feet and
clever at blocking, but whether he pos
sesses a blow sufficiently hard 20
knock out the colored lad remains to
be seen. Cans, in the past, has done
all of his good work by countering and
exceptional foot work. He is as quick
as the proverbial tiger on his feet. An
opponent makes a dash at him. Cans
sidesteps and then crashes in those
punches which have brought him fame
and the premiership of his class. He
does not favor either hand. His right
is to him just the same as his left. The
men have agreed to weigh in at 1873
pounds.
