Profits In Guinea Hens,

The guinea, which is so despised
by so many people, I think is one of
the most interesting and profitable
fowls that we have on the farm. They
are great foragers in summer time
when insects and weed seeds are plen-
tiful. They will make their own liv.
Ing on the two articles named above,
either or both of which are a pest to
the farmer. You can trust them in
your garden. They will not bother any.
thing that you want. When the wealth
er gets warm in spring you can count
on one egg from each hen every day,
rain or shine. While eggs are not as
large as some eggs, II you want to sell
them they will bring the same price
as other eggs. II you want to eat
them you can't find a finer favored
egg. If you want to eat the guineas
the young ones are just splendid.
don't think they can be beat by any
fowl. I think white guineas are best,
as their flesh is whittier and their skin
is more yellow, and they are not so
wild as the colored ones. The white
guineas will usually lay where the
chicken hens lay, especially If they
have been raised by chicken hens,
which think is the best way to raise
them. I expect to have white guineas
while have chickens.

GsvarIan Country Life,

In old Bavarian districts many of
the smaller towns are merely walled
farm villages. These settlements of
asriculturists reproduce the ancient
laager for all. Each is built in the
form of a parallelogram, the shorter
sides having each gateway, with
double gates, over. which rise central
square watch towers capped with con-
ical red roofs. A narrow road or street
runs from gate to gate, with old half
timber houses set back close to the
inclosing wall. The ground floor of
these houses affords stabling for cat
tie, and from these stables the cows
are driven out through the town gates
in the morning and brought in at
night. Townships like this are mere

MADNESS OF THE DESERT.
Effect Of the Monotony Of Silence Upon
Human Beings.

Human Beings.
1T is not generally understood that
the silence of the desert has mad
dening effect upon the human brain"
said q traveller whose experiences are
not often paralleled. 'Monotony is
more severe than anything else deriv-
ing its entire pain from mental effect.
The monotony of silence is worse than
any other kind.
Take a man away from the hum of
the work of men and send him out on
the alkai deserts of Arizona, and the
deep silence becomes awful and Is
sometimes unbearable. All at once,
without any previous symptom some
member Of the party may stop sudden
ly with a dazed look on his face and a
wild expression in his eye. He Is
dangerous. His reason is torn in wild
confusion. Anything or anybody IA
miliar infuriates him.
He must be disarmed and bound
at once or he will deal death to the
whole party He is possessed of "des-
ert Madness brought on by the mo-
notony of silence. He suffers ex-
circulating mental anguish. He needs
to be relieved by being brought back
to his accustomed surroundings.
"On this account men used to the
desert refuse to go out with those
with whom they are we'll acquainted.
The mad man is not likely to attack
a stranger. If there is no friend in
the party his madness is likely to as
sert itself in running rather than in
fighting. 1t is fearful disease not
yet understood. "-Birmingham News.
