Curious Eggs.

The stories told by poultry keepers
in regard to the laying of eggs are in
danger Of becoming viewed by the pub
lie in the same suspicious light as the
tap yarns Of fishermen, says the Mo-
slasslne World.
+ It Is announced that an egg laid BY
a hen belonging to a coast guards off,
Ger at Bridgeport measured IN, inches
by 6A inches. while another OF similar
size picked up in a farmyard at Fenny
Stratford was, on being opened, found
to contain perfectly formed second
egg. The recofu monster chickens egg
Is believed to be one of SKI Inches, and
weighing 8 ounces
The most ffeakish eggs are attri-
buted to ducks. The Weston Park MI
scum, Sheffield, has ducks egg which
contains another smaller one inside,
and a still greater curiosity Is twin
egg, the two being Joined together end
to end.
In a museum at Paris curious
four-footed goose lays an egg which is
Invariably misshapen, and the shell
of which is so brittle that 1t breaks If
touched. All efforts to preserve these
eggs have been futile.
An egg apparently in state of per-
feet preservation is reported to have
been discovered imbedded in the NOR
tar of an ancient church near Paris.
AS the wall had been standing for
fully 800 years, the egg must have
been undisturbed for all that long Pc

AnnI.. from Australia.

The arrivals at New York Of thous-
and barrels of apples from Australia
is a noteworthy event commercially,
but 1t is also of interest as showing
the growth Of the transportation bust
ness. Many bulky and weighty pred
ucts which formerly were not shipped
at all, orpnly in small quantities, now
furnish an immense business for the
railways and steamships. One need
only instance ice, iron ore, concrete.
structural steel and tropical fruits. At
the same time the transportation OF
grain, coal. fertilizers, sand, crushed
stone, building stone, gravel, and other
weighty articles has increased by leaps
and bounds. Is 1t any wonder that
the railways are taxed beyond their
capacity and that there is an ever-in-
creasing demand for more trackage,
more sidings and more rolling stock?
Water transportation has seemed al
most obsolete, and yet, with all this
enormous growth In frelghts, the I'm
proyement Of our rivers would seem to
be necessity.-Springfeld News.

Shop Without Name.

In the Deyonshire town Of Woodbury.
there is butchers shop which has
no name, nor has 1t had one for the
last 120 years. The reason affords a
striking Illustration OF the superstiti.
GUS nature Of West Country folk.
When this particular business was
started, the owner for some reason
or other did not have his name In
scribed on the premises. Whether
this fact had anything to do with the
success Of the business or not 1t would
be difficult to say. Trade, however,
was brisk, and the butcher duly re-.
tired, leaving the nameless shop to his
son. The business has been handed
down from father to son for more
than 120 years, but none OF those into
whose occupation 1t has come would
have his name nNt up on any consiti.
Grafton fearing in tact, the pres
ent owner does today-that such a
procedure might break the spell Of
good fortune with which the business
has been favored. Tit Bits. 4

Weed investigation.

The Importance Of the invasion Of
new weed pests into Iowa with seeds
brought from other States is fully ex-
plained In bulletin just published
BY the Iowa Experiment Station. Dur
ing the year 1906 about 400 samples Of
clover, alfalfa and timothy seed We're
sent into the station by farmers from
all parts Of the State to be tested for
adulteratlon. impurities and vitality.
Seeds Of dodder, Canada thistle, fox
tail, sheep sorrel, dock and plantain
were some Of the impurities revealed.
The average termination of the alfalfa
samples was 81 per cent. Timothy seed
on the market show the status of these
seed is very low also. the percentage
of plump-appearing seeds being close
to 81 per cent.

AFFEcT1oNATE BIRDS.

To the naturalist wild life is every
way more interesting than that Of
domesticated creatures. Nowhere
can this life be studied better than
In regions least frequented by man.
Capt. Snow tells, in his Voyage TO

unacquainted with man were the
birds of those South American ISL
ands. What particularly interested
him was the fellow-feeling shown
among the sea fowl.

that frogs seem to have been design

the discovery that frogs, like human

Not since the time Of the puzElins
Chevalier d'Eon. in the eighteenth CEN
fury, has there come to public attention
such sex riddle as has been presented
IN the case of Nicolai de Raglan. who
masoueroded eighteen years ~ a man
and was found to be a woman only
after her death In Phoenix, Aris., last
Dsesmber. A diary and bundle Of
correspondence. in the ONCE Of the CHI.
cago public administrator, reveal an
amazing story.
De Raglan. 1t appeark was started
on her career of deception in an at.
tempt to blackmail her mother, at
whom she was incensed because the
paternity Of the girl was kept secret.
De Raglan adopted male attire and
tried to prove that she had been mas
queraded as a girl by her mother in
violation of the laws of Russia, which
provide heavy punishment for such an
ofense. A feature of the story Is the
fact that Dc Raglan Interested the late
N. Constantine Petroyitch Pobiedonost-
Ell, procurator of the holy synod, in
her case. and prevailed on him to start
suit against her mother.
The diary, which covers the period
between 1888 and 1892, shows that tina
real family name Of De Raglan was
Taletsky. The first entries depict her
as school girl is years old, about to
graduate from seminary at Kiev,
Russia. At this time the girls mother
suddenly acquires wealth to the
amount Of 100000 rubles (about $12b..
0oo) and Nicolai. the only nams by
which De Raglan Is known to have been
called. discovers that the money has
been settled on her parent as trustee
by member Of the nobility, to be CON
served In the interests of Nlcolai. The
girl becomes curious as to the reason
for the settlement and suspects that
the unknown nobleman is her father,
but fails to drag information on the
point from her mother. Then Gomez
the inspiration that resulted In eighteen
years Of pseudo-mascullnlty for De
Raylan.
In Russia the law makes 1t crime
punishable by Imprisonment for any
person to gain entrance for boy into
a girls school and also. under the MILL
tary statutes, makes 1t serious crime
for a mother to hide the sex of a male
child. Young De Raglan, according to
the journal, schemed to black1nail her
own mother by aid Of these laws, and

warmth and Seed Termination.

warmth ana seed termination.
No crop should go into the ground
until the soil is Warm enough to ger
inmate the seed. Corn that begins to
grow. and is checked by cold rain on
cold soil, will be thrown back In
growth week or two, or perhaps more,
and 1t Is therefore better to wait few
days for the coil to become warm than
to lose more valuable time in growth
later. The warmth will depend upon
the depth and flneness of the soil and
Its dryness. A well-plowed field that is
properly drained Will become warm sew
eral days sooner than one which has
been plowed in n careless manner. The
air enters a porous soil and the heat
goes wherever the air can enter. If
the soil Is fine the surplus water can
be more easily carried off, as 1t passes
down to the subsoll and reaches the
underdrain sooner, but II the moisture
remains near the surface, by reason Of
shallow blowing, the land will be cold
until the season opens very warm, at
which season corn should then be we'll
under way. The rule should be to pillow
as early as the soil will permit and
keep the top soil loose with the har-
row. 1t is an old remark that no
farmer can harrow field too often.
1t may add to the expense or labor,
but the crop will be better enabled to
derive plant foods, moisture and
warmth as the fine soil storos x,,oto,.
that would be lost In summer on hard
soils, and gives it to the plants when
1t Is most required.
