POULTRY NOTES.

The profitable hen is both indus
trious and happy.
A variety of grain is always bet
ter than a steady diet Of one kind.
Many guinea fowl has passed for
prairie chicken upon stylish hotel
tables.
Chickens should not be kept inside
the house during bright, sunshiny
weather.
The incubator catalogues are almost
certain to bring on acute attacks of
chicken fever.
The only way to tell which of your
hens are paying their way Is by the
use of trap nests.
Many poultry disease traces its
origin to improper ventilation or lack
Of protection from the weather.
Leg bands are not expensive and
at the same time they are a great
convenience in marking poultry.
When the brooder chicks seem very
thirsty, wild for water, let them drink
and feed very lightly while so fever
ish.
The average egg record for all the
pullets and hens in the United States
would probably not be rs eggs in
year.
Have everything convenient Steps
saved in the care of poultry will mean
that much less labor. Labor costs
money.
Cook some beans or peas, mix them
with wheat bran and feed twice a
week and see If you don't get lot
more eggs.
1t is perfectly natural for chickens
to run at large, and, If the weather
be suitable they are much stronger
for doing SO.
Many setting Of eggs has been
spoiled by making the nest on the
floor where the wind can come I'D
through the cracks under the old
mother hen
A hen should not be set on more
than fifteen eggs. The writer has al
ways made much better success by
using 13 eggs to a hen unless she Is
unusually large. If given too many
eggs hens are sure to break some try
ing to cover all.

My Dear Emma: Your kind wish

1o1c1ngs SO | stayed at home,
entirely alone. I found it utterly i'm
possible to get servant before New
Year and yesterday was even without
a helper from outside. The porter's
wife put cold supper on the table for
me early in the afternoon, for she, was
too busy later with Christmas prepa-
rations for her children. A smoky oil
lamp took the place Of the Christmas
tree which you always adorned SO
charmingly and with such exquisite
taste every year, and there were none
OF those pretty surprises by which you
supplied my wants and wishes almost
before was conscious Of them. There
was nothing on the Christmas table
but my old fur coat, which Herr Pa
laschke-softened by my entreaties
and assurances and perhaps also by
the spirit of Christmastide-had al.
lowed me to take the preceding day.
1t was as cold as charity In the room,
for the fire had gone out and 1t was
beyond my skill to rekindle it, SO I
put on the fur coat, sat down by the
smoky lamp, and read over the letters
which l wrote you during the time of
our engagement and which l had ia.
ken from their II years resting place
to send to you today.
Dear Emma, I cannot tell you how
they have moved me- / cried like a
child, not over the tragic ending of
our marriage alone, but at the change
In myself which 1 recognize. They
are very immature and in many ways
not in accordance with my present
way of thinking, but what a fresh.
frank, warm-blooded fellow 1 was then,
and how l loved you! How happy I
was! How artlessly and unreserved.
ly did give myself up to my happi-
ness Till now l have thought that
there has been a gradual, slow change
In you alone, but now / see that l
have also altered, and God knows,
when compare the Max of those days
with the Max of today, do not know
to which to give the preference. In
the sleepless nights which have late.
ly spent, have thought over the pos.
sibtlity of transforming myself into
the Max then was, and grave doubts
have suggested themselves whether
the differences in our views of mat.
tiers and things were really as great
as they seemed to us, whether there is
not outside of them something eternal
ly human, some neutral ground where
we might continue to have interests in
common.
Try and see, dear Emma, whether
such voice does net speak also to
your soul We cannot undo the past,
but nothing could give me greater
consolation In my present unhappy
condition than to know that you could
say yes to this question, for your de-
parture has left a void in my house
and in my life that can never. never

Frau. Emma Wiegand to Prof. Max
Wiegand. Freiburg, December 81.
Dear Max: very willingly gave you
information as long as it related only
to tickets and sleeve buttons, but
must decline answering the question
contained IN your last letter Did you
really believe, you old Pedant, that |
left your home-which was also mine
because we disagreed in our views
of matters and things in general?
Then you are nightly mistaken. I
left you because i saw more plainly
every day that you no longer loved
me. Yes, had become a burden to
you you wanted to get rid of
me. II In that dignified parting scene
you had said one single tender word
to me, should probably have stayed,
but, as usual, you were. on your high
horse, from which you have now had
ESQ lamentable tumble just because
your servants have left you. 1 too
have served you faithfully, though you
do not seem to have recognized that
fact. i never let the fire go out on
your hearth. 1t was not my fault when
1t grew cold.
Who knows whether you would have
noticed the void left by my going If
your fur coat had not also been miss
ing? This gave you an opportunity
of opening correspondence with me,
and It seems to be only fitting that it
should now close, since you have once
more regained possession of your prop
erty. l, at least. have nothing more to
say Goodby forever. EMMA.
