Unhappy Lot of Chinese Doctors.

The ships trading between Hong

The trade Is very profitable, as Aus

A hen that lays a large number of
eggs reduces her vitality. Egg laying
is reproduction, and it takes energy.
1.-THE germ in an egg laid by hen that
has been laying steadily is weaker
than that in an egg from a hen which
lays less often. For this reason it
often happens that chicks Matched
from dams having big egg records. are
weakly and for lack of vigor make
poor layers. In order to breed from
the 2O0-egg hen we should keep her
until the second year before Matching
her eggs She is then laying fewer

Here is a remedy for squash bugs
and striped beetles that get after the
cucumber and squash vines which in
the u years experience Of contri-
butor to the New England Homestead
has never failed. Every time you hoe
your plants take a handful of the
strongest phosphate you can get, and
scatter it around the vines or hill, but
not on the leaves nor too near the
plant. The smell will cause the bugs
to leave, and when the smell of the
fertilizer is gone, apply more, after
the old has been worked up into the
soil around the plant, BY following
this method you not only keep away
the bugs, but greatly aid in the growth
of your plants. If your phosphate is
strong. and applied around and not on
the plants, YOU can rest assured the
method will bring satisfactory results.
