Color of Euas.

The color OF eggs has a great deal
to do with the value of eggs in differ
ent markets. In the majority of the
markets in our small cities, towns and
villages the people do not care whether
an egg Is brown or white. This is not
true. however, in the large cities like
New York and Boston. The Chicago
market does not care what kind of
an egg 1t receives, But New York
wants white egg; and white egg,
uniform In size and tint, will sell at
about &c a dozen over the price Of
brown eggs or mixed eggs The rich
families of New York evidently like
to have white eggs on their tables.
The opposite Is true In Boston. There
the brown egg is In favor. II may
be a coincidence that the Plymouth
Rock hen, which is named for local.
ity near Boston, should lay brown
egg. The farmer supplying the Bos.
ton market Is quite generally using
the Plymouth Rocks because he gets
the colored egg so much in demand
in Boston. Pure color in eggs can
only be obtained by pure breeding. AS
soon as Plymouth Rocks are crossed
with other breeds they begin to pro-
duce off-colored eggs. Now and then
a hen will be found having but little
blood In her other than Plymouth
Rock and yet producing white egg.
Such hens are eliminated from the
flocks when they are discovered. The
color is fancy point but 1t is one
that must be considered by the man
that wants to get the most for his
eggs.

Boltina Food.

An instructor in an agricultural
college says: Boiling the food
or gulping 1t rapidly and with.
out sufficient mastication is always
injurious to animals. Some horses
acquire this as habit, and 1t Is hard
to overcome. One of the best meth.
DDS of preventing 1t Is to spread the
grain over a large area, as on the
bottom of manager, 80 that the horse
cannot easily obtain large moIthfuls
There are iron feed-boxes divided into
small compartments that accomplish
the same results. Smooth round
stones the size Of mans fist can be
rlaced in the ordinary feed box. Sc
that the horse is compelled to nose
them over in order to get the grain.
Animals that bolt their feed should
be given ground feed.
