twenty-five miles above Cullman where
he went few days ago in search of the
horse and buggy that was rented from
Smiley, Sons & Co.'S stables, of which
he is manager, last Sunday, and was
not returned.
The rig had been sold at a Gypsy camp
for $50 and the Gypsies had traded the
horse to a farmer living near Culiman.
The name plate had been removed from
the buggy. and all the lettering had
been scratched off, and the vehicle other
wise defaced. but Mr. Jordan succeeded
In proving his title to the property. and
recovered both the horse and buggy. but
could not locate the harness. The man
who had rented the rig bought ticket

stolen property was located that it is
very doubtful whether an effort will be
made to apprehend him.

Some cockerels shake their heads
from pure nervousness. others because
of irritation from vermin or other
cause and still others because of
excessively large combs. Irritation
from frosting of combs and wattles

vigorously. Frosted combs when first

Matching had best be kept at tenn
perature between 40 and so degrees r,
neither above nor below. Exposure to
too low a temperature is liable to in
jure the germ. and prolonged exposure
to temperature above 60 or 70 is
almost certain to injuriously affect the
egg contents. particularly the yolk, and
to weaken the germ. Eggs for hatch
ing should be as fresh as possible. The
longer they are kept the weaker the
germ becomes. Under favorable condi-
tons they may be safely kept from
two to four weeks. but as a rule three
weeks should be the extreme limit.
Careless or improper incubation may
also result in chicks dead in the shell.
Overheating or prolonged exposure to
a temperature of 104 or above is liable
to seriously injure the egg content and
result in death of the embryo before

Wiping Apples.

The question often comes up. Does
1t pay to wipe apples? 1t certainly
does il the market demands it and is
willing to pay for it. The objection is
sometimes raised that the keeping
qualities of fruit that has been wiped
are Impaired, and this may be true;
but such apples are generally disposed
of in the fall, and in the long run we
have no figures to show definitely the
effect of wiping. Nevertheless, where
apples are sprayed late so that they
are spotted with spray mixture when
picked, this should be removed in
some way, and wiping seems to be the
best solution This does not necessa-
rily mean great amount of polishing.
Loose mitts can be easily made from
flannel cloth, and one good twist will
remove outside dust and spray spots.
Where apples are to be wiped, this
must be done shortly after they are
picked, for if left very long they tend
to sweat trifie and become gummy,
making wiping a difficult and costly
process. The apples should be stored
until packed and packed in some cool,
well ventilated building. The natural
moisture conditions in our climate in
the fall are such that if the apples are
stored where it is cool their keeping
qualities do not deteriorate. Houses
that can be well opened at night and
closed in the daytime will furnish the
best conditions as regards temperature.
Never heap the fruit in immense piles
or store in bins, as such methods In
vite sweating aud bruis;ng in handling,
but preferably use fed boxes, having
end cleats so that they can be piled
one on top of the other and still allow
for plenty of ventilation.-C T. Lewis.
