Edward Wilson, a farmer near
Tulip, Monroe county, reports that
he saw an eagle carrying Off n OF
his lambs on November s. The eagle
had to drop the lamb after carrying
1t some distance. The farmer hot
the eagle, when he discovered that
there was a steel trap attached 10
the left talon, and three Of the claws
were gone, having been torn off by the
trap, which had been carried by the
eagle for years. This probably ac-
counts for the eagle having to drop
the lamb. as It was compelled to carry

much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use 80 much starch that the
beauty and ~fineness Of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear

can be entirely overcome by using De-
