Food TaIue of Eggs.

Popular belief to the contrary, there
is no difference in the nutritive quail
ties of eggs with dark shells and those
with light. Their flavor is affected by
the food Of the fowl for good or for
evil Exhaustive experiments by well
equipped investigators prove that the
egg deserves its reputation as an
easily assimilated and highly nutri-
tious food, if eaten raw or lightly
cooked. Such experiments also show
that eggs at twelve cents a dozen are
cheap source of nutrients; at six
teen cents, somewhat expensive. and
at twenty-five cents and over, highly
extravagant.
The basis of comparison was the
market prices of standard flesh foods
considered in relation to their nutri
tive elements. But there is a physio
logical constituent of eggs which is of
great value, yet it defies the search of
the scientist or the inquisition of the
statistician, and that is their palata-
bility. Unless a food, however rich in
proteins, is relished, it loses much of
its value, while, per contra, a less
chemically desirable food that is en-
joyed becomes valuable by reason Of
that fact.

FAIR STUDENTS IN REVOLT.
Object to the Measuring Methods d
Their Gymnasium INSTRUCTOR.

The girls Of the freshman and sopho-
more classes of the University of Gin
cinnad have been going about with
traces Of tears on their cheeks, and
asking each other, "Haye you been
scheduled?"
At first the girls did not know what
"scheduling" meant when they re-
ceived confidential notes from Miss
Edna Earl Hope, teacher Of the girls
gymnasium work at the varsity.
Their presence alone in her private
room was requested at such and such
a time. The "alone' looked mysteri-
Gus and the girls held a consultation.
Then the bravest faced Miss Hope.
When she went in to Miss Hope her
face was eager, but when she came
out 1t was scarlet.
"And what do you think?" she whis-
pered: "You-have to-take OF all
your clothes"
"And after she gets your clothes on,
what then?" chorused the girls.
Then the first girl told, with tears
and gasps, how the new gym teacher
placed an adjustable rig about the hips
and measured them-the hips-yes!
And she measured the arms and the
'er-'er-legs. The bust expansion and
the length of the fingers, and how
big the chest is when the girl takes
long breath, and how little it gets
when the girl expels her breath. Then
she subtracts the difference, divides
it by two, and multiplies the result by
three, and says:
"There's where you ought to be, and
maybe you'll be that by the end of the
year, when the second physical exami-
nation comes"
The girls held an indignation meet
ing the latter part of the week, and a
committee was secretly appointed to
wait on President Dabney.
But" said the girls on the commit
tee, 1--WE would rather take one of
those scheduled things than to tell
man about it"
Because of the excitement of those
girls who were scheduled" Miss Hope

probably an equal footing, the one the
tyrant of the air and the other the
king of game birds. Both were hunt
ed by the Indian, the eagle to furnish
plumes for his war bonnet, and the
turkey. of course, for food.
But now the eagle seldom is hunted
and still more seldom ever killed OF
captured, while the turkey is found
in hundreds of thousands of farm
yards.
Although the North American wild
turkey is a beautiful and resplendent
game bird. with feathers of black,
shaded with n rich bronze and illumi-
mated with lustrous finish of coppery
color, his domesticated cousin, while
improved nothing in appearance, has
been bred up to outweigh any other
domestic fowl, thirty or thirtyfive
pounds being not uncommon among
prize turkey fiocks.
According to the Department Of
Agriculture the growing of turkeys
has improved within the last few
years as result of determined effort
on the part of producers of what Is
termed STANDARD bred or exhibition"
stock to demonstrate that II is more
profitable to use pre- bred breeding
stock than the smaller and less vigor-
GUS stock of days gone by. Their
efforts to introduce throughout the
country the several standard varie-
ties of turkeys have greatly improved
our turkey growing industry. This
effort has supplied rich. new, vigorous
blood throughout the whole country,
adding strength and yirility to in
Vulnerable fiocks, many of which had
become considerably deteriorated
through inbreeding.
Deterioration Through Inbreeding.
The fact that one formulation is
sufficient to render fertile all the eggs
of one laying has made possible the
undermining of the health and vigor
of the present-day domestic turkey.
Being advised of this, hundreds of
people depend upon their neighbors'
flocks for the services of a male and
pay no attention to the matter of
breeding stock except to keep one or
two turkey hens. This has reduced
many OF the turkeys throughout the
country almost to condition of i'm
becility. The lack OF vigor in large

the English Norfolk turkey, the Slate
turkey, and the red Bourbon turkey,
which is similar to the Buff turkey In
addition to the North American wild
turkey, the Mexican wild turkey still
affords splendid sport, as does'also the
Honduras turkey, which is, found in
various parts Of Ce4tral Ar,ericae both

breast indicate value most clearly; size
and strength of bone indicate constitu-
tional vigor which should be maintain
ed through the selection of the very
best at all times for producing stock
When special care is given to the Sc
lection of the breeding stock, and the
grower bears in mind those profitable
chara teristics-compactnes of form,
length of breast and body, and con-
stitutional vigor-the most satisfactory
results may come from the growing of
this variety. But no matter how
much care may be given these condi-
tions, only partial success will come if
inbreeding is permitted. The use of
diversified males with small females is
of less advantage than the use of
smaller males with well-matured,
medium-sized females.

THE NATIONAL p! r D.
GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL

Ing, people have become so disheart-
ened in some localities with the mea-
ger results of their efforts to grow
turkeys for market that they have de
sisted from the attempt.
Mr.. T. F. McGrew, of New York,
well-known judge of poultry and a
writer on breeds and breeding, has
written a turkey bulletin for the De
partment of Agriculture which is
known as Farmers Bulletin No. 200,
and in this he says that there is no
other kind of livestock that will return
so large a profit to the successful pro
ducer as will poultry, and no kind of
poultry is more profitable than turkeys
when properly handled. The fact that
turkeys will, from the time they are
six weeks old until winter sets in,
gain the greater part of their entire
living from bugs, g-asshoppers and
waste grain that they pick up in their
wanderings over the range, assures
their existence through this period at
little or no cost to the grower. In
other words, they may be termed self
sustaining foragers, where they have
sufficient range.

The Bronze Turkey.

This turkey holds the post of honor.
1t is possibly a cross between the wild
turkey and the tame turkey, which lat
ter is generally believed to have de-
scended from either the North Ameri-
can wild turkey, the Mexican wild
turkey or the Honduras or Ocellated
turkey. Its beautiful rich plumage
and its size have come from its wild
progenitor. To maintain these desir-
able qualities, crosses are continually
necessary. In this way the mammoth
size has been gained, the standard
weight ranging from sixteen to thirty
six pounds, according to age and sex.
The coloring of this variety is n
ground of black blaZoned or shaded
with bronze. This shading is rich and
glowing, and when the suns rays are
reflected from these colors, they shine
like polished steel. The female is not
as rich in color as the male, but both
have the same color and shadings.
Much Of this richness of color is lost

through inbreeding, as 1t is improved
by each cross with the wild specimens.
OF all our domestic fowls none suffer
from inbreeding so much as turkeys.
This should be guarded against at all
times, If it is hoped to gain the best
results.
Naturally the Brorve turkey should
be the largest in size, the most vigor-
Gus in constitution, and the most prof

The NarraRansett Turkey.

This turkey is noble looking, full
chested bird but is not SO large as the
Bronze. His color Is a black back
ground with a steel-gray edge to the
feather which imparts a metallic
black-and- bronze luster. The cocks, or
toms, weigh from 20 to 80 pounds, and
some old ones haye gone 40 pounds.
The Narragansett is a desirabl breed
and some growers declare that they
will reach market size and condition
in less time than the Bronze turkeys.
The Buff Turkey.
As bred for market these turkeys are
a reddish buff or light chestnut color
mixed with white and some dark
shadings. They are highly valued in
some localities for their quick growth
and for their effectiveness when
dressed, although they do not run as
the Naragansett or the Bronze.
The White Turkey
In America the white variety Is
called the White Holland turkey. In
England they are known as Austrian
Whites" where they are considered
sports from other turkeys. They range
from 10 pounds for young hens to 26
pounds for old cocks, although they
have run as high as 35 pounds at fairs.
Mr.. McGrew states that white turkeys
are quite as easy to grow as any other
variety, and he states that one cannot
select a better kind for all uses than
the White Holland. They grow to- the
most profitable sizes, dress beautifully
for market, their light, pinkish-whitf
shanks add to their appearance; and
with them, as with all white poultry
the pin feathers show less than II
darker varities. The very largest tur
keys are not as profitable either =

most desirable for family use.

ed away the most unique character
OF the great Cheyenne tribe.
Making his advent upon the stage
OF life, almost II not quite a century
ago, his early life was spent far away
from the white man and civilization.
Rowing over the almost boundless
plains. hunting the buffalo and ante
lope. he grew up a typical Indian
brave, his highest ambition being to
become a noted warrior. with his peo-
pie he fought at Adobe Walls, where
his only son was killed. He also claim
cd TO have been in Clusters last fight.
The old man enjoyed nothing more
than to sit down, and by the aid of
an interpreter. talk to his white
frirnds OF his many adventures He
would tell OF the raids made by his
people into Texas and Mexico. One
incident heard him relate comes to
my mind now. A number OF Chey-
ennes went on an expedition to Mex.
leo. In addition to stealing horses,
they at this time took captive several
Mexican girls. When they had gone
for two days and nights without sleep,
thinking they were now out OF dan
ger. they placed Mad Wolf on guard
on the top Of the hill while the re-
mainder Of the party went into camp
in the valley below to get a .nucl
needed rest.
Trur 10 the trust confded in him,
Mad Wolf watched the long night
almost through, but just as the dawn
began TO break, sleep overcame him,
when suddenly he awoke to find the
white soldiers almost upon him. There
was NO time to give warning to those
below in the valley, twas all he could
do to save himself Ere the sun was
an hour high all his comrades lay
dead on the ground. After days of
travel and suffering, frequently from
hunger and thirst, Mad Wolf reached
his camp alone, in disgrace, no tro
phies, no companions.
Poor old man. his days are ended
He was ever true TO the traditions OF
his fathers. While he clung to the
ways and superstitions Of his race,
he never forgot a kindness and was
ever true to those he considered his
friends. In one thing he was far above
the average Indian, and that was his
devotion AMI loyalty to his wife.
When she grew old and blind he did
not throw her aside as is the Indian
custom, but tenderly cared for her,
and there was nothing more touching
than TO see him carefully leading her
by the hand. or taking the diner Civ
en- him in camp to be divided with
the poor blind woman. When she died
he had her buried by the white min
lister and could not himself rest until
an enclosure had been placed around
her grave In order that she might
not be disturbed by cattle trampiug
over her.
