Advice on Eqqs.

get more eggs in winter than any

to get the extreme high prices of late

Feeding Salt.

Salt that remains in the barrel OF
meat that is clean and wholesome IS
in no way infected with germ life that
will injure stock to which it is fed
any more than other salt. Animals
are sometimes poisoned on salt, but
it is by reason of their being so hun
cry for it that they overeat Of it. Thus
if person were to dump the. contents
of meat barrel on the ground and

Holding Drift Land.

The drifting sands of the Cape ca
region in Massachusetts are a. serio,s
problem for the farm owners nearh,
The coarse sand is gradually NOW,
along by the wind and is encroachi,,
upon the fertile cultivated spots =,
cept where there is protection of MIN.
trees or other forest growth, the sand
hills make gains from year to Yea,
and nothing could prevent them frm
covering houses and towns as well .,
fields.
The Forestry Department has been
making quite a study of such cond
tions, which prevail in certain othe
parts of the country as well as on |
Cape Cod. Forest fires often increas
the trouble by destroying the growth
that has long protected the CULTIVATED
sections from the approach of The |
sand. Besides prevention of fores
fires some other methods are recon
mended. Planting of trees is, d
course, desirable, including rows o. !
the sides of the roads and along the |
borders of fields as shelter belts, also |
belts of trees on the windward side d |
light lands that have been cleared d
trees, these belts serving to protect
against severe winds as we'll as keep

Another means of preventing driftn
is to cultivate sandy fields in long
narrow strips not more than ffteea
or twenty rods wide and alternating
with similar strips of grass, preser
ably clover. On these narrow strips
serious drifting cannot occur. The 70
tation should aim to always have IN
the spring field of grass to west
Of the land to be sowed to grain and
seeded to clover. Such rotation IS
secured by always planting potatoes Of
corn on clover sod. The clover plant
ed in spring on grain serves rs pro

and at the same time furnishes .
green manure to plow in to increase
the vegetable matter in those SOILS
which arc naturally deficient in some

Witchcraft in Africa.
m fha National Mapazine

=
They believe as sincerely in witchcraft
as did King James or Cotton Mather, and
after harvest the official witch-doctor
visits the several villages and makes ex-
haustive inquisitton. All the misfortunes,
and especially the sudden deaths of the
year. are raked over, and all who can
propitiate the inquisitor with gifts. or seek
to put him upon the trail Of some rival,
enemy or helpless person. Finally he
names to the elders Of the village some
person whom he has 'smelled out" as a
witch-almost always woman whose rel
atives have incurred his dislike, or who
have failed to satisfy his greed; or per-
hapS some friendlesS creature who can be
made the scapegoat of the community.
Nothing of his decision is said to the
woman, but she is gradually informed
OF her doom by the universal aversion and
contempt manifested toward her by the
whole community. including her nearest
relatives. At last a day comes In which
she sees one after another leave the little
village in which she was born, leaving her
all alone. A single warrior stealthily ap-
proaches her from behind and thrusts
his keen spear through her back, pinning
her down to the ground. Sometimes the
thrust Is mortal, but in many cases she
Is left to writhe In agony until the mad
dened throng returns to beat and stone
her to death. The custom is called kin
yolla. and it is said that nearly forty
women were thus slain near Machakos
station in one year.
