Coal and Coke Traffic ON n. a W.
Bluefield, w. Va. Feb. 10Th,
Norfolk & Western is now handling
On an average of 5000 to 100. O0C
tons of coal and coke per day. from
the Pocahontas division. This ire
mendous tonnage is not the eapae-
lty of the road or this division by
any means but It is what is being
actually hauled and loaded in spite
Of shortage of cars. II the road
had the equipment the tonnage
would easily reach 1876 900 to $780,
900 tons and would require from
$500 to 5000 cars a day for move
ment Every day new cars are seen
on this division and that means new
equipment is being added to as fast
as cars can be turned out The load
ing is not confined to one particu-
lar district but is general over all
parts of the field, Coal companies
which have struggled along on a
mere existence are now loading all
the ears that they can get and many
are short. The coke business has
suffered materially from the lack
of cars and although every effort is
being made to get cars on the mines
tracks the coke people still have
cause for complaint Coke is in de-
mand for this section and last
month prominent shipper said that
he was about twenty-five per cent,
short on his orders on account of
lack of cars.

How to Handle Eggs.

When the hens on the farm are
producing enough eggs to warrant
the farmers taking them to town,
arrangements should be made to
handle all of them properly. A con-
yenient and clean place should be
provided wherein the hens can lay.
They should be compelled to lay
here in clean nest. The natural
tendency of hen is to go off in
the weeds and make her nest. This
should never be tolerated, and any
eggs found in such places should be
marked and kept at home.
1t makes no difference how many
hens are kept, a house suitable for
them should be erected in which
they should be compelled to roost
and lay. Then if the nests are
placed where the hens will not roost
on them they can be kept clean
Straw that is dry makes the best
nesting material, and if the nest
could have bottom made of one.

should be gathered twice daily. Thi!

SETTING A HEN.

...... DElllNU "A nE4Ns
1t may seem a simple thing, but
many poultry raisers do not know
how to set hen to avoid trouble.
A great many think they can set
them just where the nests chance
to be, or if they do decide to move
them, they hold them up by the
legs and carry them to the new
nests.
Good results cannot be had II the
! hens are set in the hen house where
other hens can fight with them and
lay in the same nest. They will
break the eggs, and often the hen
is driven from the nest, and the
eggs get chilled so that none will
hatch. .. r.
As soon as the hen shows that
she is broody, prepare nest in a
room or loft, where nothing can dis
turb her, and after dark take her
gently under your arm and place
her on the nest. Arrange the box
so that the front may be closed up,
thus combining her for at least one
day. Any good size box will do, but
it must be roomy. Soap boxes are
just right; cut out small opening
in front down to six inches from
bottom, so she can step in without
having to Jump on the eggs. Make
the nest of clean straw or hay
broken well, and pressed closely
down into the corners, rounded JUS
a little SO that the eggs will not rol
out. On the second day place corn
grit and water in front of nest; TAKE
down the board and gently lift the
hen off, and let her eat and drink
Have the eggs ready and place then
in the nest and leave the room
After satisfying her hunger she will
return to the nest.
Should she refuse to return, 1
is best not to waste any time, a.
there will be danger of her not be
ing faithful and the eggs will b.
lost.
When the hens are first set the!
should be busted with insect pow
der, and again two weeks afterward
then again when the chicks ar,
Matched. Do not grease the hens o.
chicks, especially in cold weather
as the grease destroys the down OIL

Marketing the Eggs.

When eggs have been properly
gathered, handled and kept previous
to taking to market, the question
of the number of trips to town
should be considered. In hot wealth
er the eggs should be marketed two
or three times per week, and oft
ener If possible. If that number of
trips cannot be made, cooperate
with a neighbor and have him alter
nate days in the trips which must
be made. .."..
In the fall and spring eggs should
be marketed at least once week.
Many buyers have had trouble in
October and November with eggs
classed as held eggs" These are
common, because most farmers be-
lieve that after frost eggs will not
rot so quickly, but nevertheless they
do evaporate and the air cells in
them show the Gambler that they are
stale.
Therefore, the more often eggs
are marketed the greater are the
chances that they will be good, II

Keeping the Eggs.

When the clean, fresh eggs are
gathered, they should be put in a
clean, dry, cool place until marketed
Even though the place is clean and
cool, il it is not dry, molds, etc, will
commence development, and the
eggs will soon spoil. If the eggs
become damp and they happen tc
be in contact with any colored ma,
terial they will Immediately become
stained. Good egg cases in a cool
dry, clean place, kept up off the
floor, make an excellent receptacle
in which to keep eggs previous to
marketing.
Before these eggs are set aside
for market, they should be gone
over by the farmer as he collects
them, and all small. stained, dirty
doubtful, incubator and rotten eggs
should be removed. Small and dirty
eggs, If used Immediately, are just
as good as large, clean ones, but
they will not sell we'll on the mark
ct, and il sent in with good eggs
will spoil the trade, Therefore, they
should be kept and used at home
No eggs should be washed, for the
packers claim they will not keep
well. All eggs from stolen nests
whose freshness is doubtful, and al
incubator eggs, should either be
thrown away. boiled for the little
chicks or used at home. They should
never be sent to market. Rotten
eggs need not be discussed. Any
person who will send one to market
deserves all the penalty possible
from the pure-food law.

How to Obtain Eggs.

Eggs are produced by fowls only
after their bodies have been sup
piled with a maintenance ration.
The production of an egg is the
hens only means of reproduction
and this she cannot do until she
has enough food to first maintain
life. So it must be remembered in
feeding a hen for laying that she
needs a great quantity of feed. Some
hens lay la lie, some small and more
medium-sized eggs. A large egg is
desirable on all markets, and If the
farmer wishes his hens to be large
ly egg producers he should keep on
the farm those breeds of fowls
which will lay large eggs. Such
breeds as the Plymouth Rock, Rhode
Island Red, Wyandotte and some
Leghorns, are the most popular
farmers fowls for producing good
marketable eggs.
There is ofttimes much objection
to the Leghorn on account of the
inclination to lay small eggs, and
yet 1t is not the least bit of trouble
to produce hens of this breed which
viii easily lay eggs that weigh one
and a half pounds to the dozen. If
the strain of Leghorns kept do not
do this, it will do no good to cross
them with some other breed and ex-
.pect to improve the size of the egg
or yield of the flock. One year may
show Improvement, but the follow
ing ones are questionable. So it will
pay any poultrymaR who cares to
produce the best market fowl or
the best eggs to breed pure and
for purpose.
