Eggs Much Alike.

The white of an egg is nearly
seven-eights water, the balance be-
ing pure albumen. The yolk is
slightly less than one-half water.
These figures apply approximately
to the eggs of turkeys, hens, geese,
ducks and guinea fowls.
To show how nearly alike the eggs
of various domestic fowls are in re-
spect to composition, the following
figures are given by the Depart
ment of Agriculture
Hens egg so per cent water,
16 per cent protein. J." SO per cent
fat.
Ducks egg-46 per cent water,
II per cent protein" SO per cent
fat.
Turkeys eggs per cent water,
Is per cent protein" 80 per cent
fat.
1t should be explained that pro
tein," is the stuff that goes to make
muscle and blood. Fat of course is
fuel for running the body machine.
Thus it will be seen that eggs
though half, or nearly half, water,
are extremely nutritious, containing
all the elements required for the
building and support of the human
body But the old saying that an
egg contains as much nutriment as
a pound of beefsteak is far from
correct. 1t would be nearer the
fact to estimate pound of eggs as
equal to pound of beefsteak in
nourishing power. F. H. Journal.

June Matched chicks sleep them
selves to DEATH" is a hoary old lie
that has been senselessly repeated
so often that the majority of people
believe it without taking the trouble
to investigate.
A lousy chick will sleep" all right
and lice are little more prevalent
in June than May. That's all there
is to it. There are many reasons
why thoroughbred chicks should be
Matched out in June and July. They
are really much easier reared then,
than in March or April. Just watch
the lice. We sell eggs after June l,
at half price and they are, usually,
more fertile. Bugs are more abund-
ant then. The chicks can be shelf
cred in any old place. A hen can
care for larger brood.
Some breeds, especially the bluffs,
mature with more perfect plumage.
1t is true the pullets do not make
such winter layers, but in the fancy,
we are after the spring layers.
On account of quick feathering
and early maturity, the Leghorns do
quite we'll when late Matched. We
Matched some August Buff Orping-
tons which developed into fine speci-
mems. Our best cockerel, a $50
bird, was Of this lot. We would not
advise the Matching of mongrel
chicks. so late-or at any other time,
for that matter.
We would advise that some shade
be provided to shelter the little ones
from the fierce rays of a July and
August sun. 1t would be we'll to
keep the hen confined in a Slated
front coop, if shade was not abund-
ant, until the middle of the after
noon Then she would not expose
them to the hot sun for the entire
day. The little ones could come and
go, at will, seeking the shelter of the
coop, if they so desired.
Many promising pullet falls
down" before mating time, and then
the late Matched ones are doubly APP
preciated. Don't forget to hatch
late.-W. E. Damon in Nashville

Dust Bath for Sitting Hens.

Did you ever let off a batch of
sitting hens and watch their frantic
efforts to find a place to battle in
They like their daily bath just as
much as you enjoy your morning
wash and hair comb. Provide them
with one; let it be in a box that is
raised above the ground so that it
will not get filled with litter, and
make it large enough so that two or
three of the hens can battle at once.
The box is best filled with ashes if
the roof does not leak and get them
wet. Provide this and then if your
nest boxes are clean, if you have in
sect powder and have put tobacco
leaves in the bottom of the nest you
may bank on the fact that your hens
will neither be driven from their
nest by lice nor be devoured by ver-
min. Poultry life.

PROF. CORDLEY IDENTI-
flES PEACH DISEASE
Tells Ashland Fruit Growers As
sociation How to Destroy
Fungus Disc Ase.

A new fungus disease has appeared
to limited extent with peach or
chards about Ashland, and fearing
that it might be serious pest the
Ashland Fruit & Produce Association
sent lot Of the peaches to Prof. A.
b. Cordley, entomoloigst at the State
Agricultural college, for him to iden-
tify and to report as to its character.
The following is Porf. Oordley's re-
ply to the Ashland Association. which
was published in the Ashland papers
and the Courier herewith published it
for the information of Josephine
county peach grower:

Dear Sirs: In answer to your let.
ter of the 2nd. which accompan led
the letter are infested with the flung
us disease known as peach fruit spot,
which is caused by the fungus Helm.
inthosporium Carpophilum. and also
by the larva of the peach twig miner,
Anarsia Lineatella. The presence of
the fungus causing the spots upon
the peach, which resemble those pro.
duced by San Jose scale should not in
my estimation, be cause for condemn
ing the fruit since it does not so far as
known, injure the tree at all and does
no particular injury to the fruit
The larva of the peach twig moth
winters in small burrows which it
makes in the bark of the tree. usually
about the crotches of the limbs.
just as the leaf buds start in spring
the larvae leave their winter quarters
and burrow into the tips of the twiRs
where the first generation develops.
From these larvae are produced small,
Rrayish moths which deposit eggs for
the second generation, the worms
which are now attacking the peaches.
The best method of fighting this
pest has been found to be to spray the
trees in spring, shortly before the
blossom buds begin to swell. will
the lime, sulphur salt spray. Thii
application would also serve an til,
first one for controlling the fungul
and il this were supplemented with
one or two sprayipgs with weak Bor
deaux mixture. the first, say a weel
or ten days after the blossoms hav,
fallen and the second two weeks later
the three applications would IN
donbtedly check both troubles.
Very truly yours,

though the latter orchards have shown
the greater earning power. In num-
ber of Hood River orchards q single
acre has been known to yield as much
as $1,000 gross in year.
''Mr. Vanderbilt has purchased 80
acres known as the Valhalla or
chard, now in full bearing, and
added it to his Beulahland. This
farm now consists of about las acres,
and its bearing acreage is the largest
in the valley. Last year the original
farm yielded between 1000 and 5000
boxes. The ranch is cultivated to a
high degree, bearing trees loaded with
perfectly formed apples, the Young
trees looking thrifty. Every tree is
trimmed and sprayed scrupulously.
The land is cultivated and narrowed,
and not a wesd to be seen between all
the long rows Of trees
"This years crop Of Beulahland is
estimated at $4,000 boxes. The apples
from this farm sold last year at 81. 75
as the lowest and SO the highest price
per box. These prices amaze eastern
apple growers. most of whom get less
money for barrel than Hood River
growers receive for bushel Of apples.
With the acreage of young trees that
will come into bearing in the next two
or three years the yield OF Beulahland
will be increased to upwards Of 25. 0O(

CRUDE OIL USED

Clouds Of Dust on Capitol Streets

The work attracted a great deal of
interest and hundreds Of citizens passed
around that way to watch the men lay
the dust and grease the road.

success of the effort will lead
