Not Lying Down.

1t is not uncommon for a horse
to stand all night in his stall in
the stable. Apparently such a
horse continues IN good health
and feeds and works as we'll as
others, but as arule his legs swell
and he shows fatigue much soon
er than the horse that takes, his
natural rest.
The remedy for not lying down
is a box-stall. No means, gentle
or harsh, will force a horse to lie
down unless he be thrown, and
in such case he will arise again
on the first opportunity.
The reason that some horses
sleep standing is that they fear
to lie down when tied, or that
they have been cast in the night
and fear a repetition of the ex-
perience. A fresh, well-made bed
will sometimes tempt the tired
horse to lie down.

Egg Tests.

A good egg will sink in water.
Stale eggs are CLASSY and
smooth of shell.
A fresh egg has a lime like
surface to its shell.
The boiled eggs which adhere
to the shell are fresh laid.
Eggs packed in bran for a
long time smell and taste musty.
Thin shell are caused by lack
of gravel, etc., among the hens
laying eggs.
After an egg has been laid a
day of more the shell comes off
easily when boiled.
A boiled egg which is done will
dry quickly on the shell when
taken from the kettle.
Eggs which have been packed
in lime look stained and show
the action of the lime on the sur
face.
If an egg is clean and golden
in appearance when held to the
light, it is good; if dark or spot
ted, it is bad.
Sawdust on the floor of the hen
house will keep the biddies' feet
warm and induce egg production.
Don't make the hens stupid,
lazy and improbable by over
feeding. The active eager hen
is the one that increases the egg
supply.
