USING THE CANAL.

TO have little hope for the Delaware
a Raritan canal IT is inclined 20
accept the opinion OF the attorney
general rs final, and as ms opiI'oh
is TO the effect that the state TeIin-
quished all claim to the waterway
when il failed to take possession IN
1883, it is now the property Of the
Pennsylvania railroad which controls
it under a lease for 500 years.
There IS no doubt that the opinion
Of the attorney general makes out a
very bad case for the state, neverthe-
less the attorney general may be
wrong, TO ascertain whether he is
or not would, as is pointed out, cost
a great deal Of money in litigation
This, it is probable, the state would
not feel warranted in spending, es-
pecially as 1t has agreed TO buy b
right OF way for the proposed new
snip canal which 1t is hoped tine
Federal government VIII construct Ill

pHlN MILLER,s BEST STORY.

An East Side man who is a greal
chicken fancier got some fancy eggs
fresh from the hens and hurried home
with them for the purpose Of Matching
them out in an incubator They were
very valuable eggs and he had been
saving his spare change for some time
to buy them.
When he got the eggs home ne laio
them carefully in warm place and
went out in. the back yard to get the
incubator ready. 1t took him most oil
the afternoon.
He then returned to the house and
asked for the eggs.
81 have them for you, all right,
said his wife. 81 wanted to keep
them nice, so have had them in the
icebox all the afternoon

NEW POINT OF VIEW.

(From the Chicago RecordHerald),
used to think he was a fool;
He bored me every time we met;
There seemed to be but one poor rule
In that which served him for a set;
He talked about his little son,
Till oft / impolitely fed;
He told me what the child had done;
Repeated all that he had said.
/ used to think his mind was weak;
1 always Stunned him when l could
In fact, 1 fancied him freak,
But that was ere understood;
1 learned to almost hate his child;
And wondered why he could not see
That others pityingly smiled
That he'd become bore to me.
/ used to rush across the street,
Thus Often risking life and limb,
So that we should not have to meet,
OR as a plague I dreaded him;
But l have learned to be more just;
/ greet him with friendly tone;
To tell the plain truth, If must,
l have baby Of my own.

be herded with greater facility than
1000 sheep. The goat feeds on the

I would not and do not decry the

less advocates. The goat industry
needs to be called back, revived, re-
invigorated Those who have hai
experience declare that every flock
of sheep should be attended by few
goats with a belligerent "Billy" at
their head He will defend the sheep
against all corners, especially against
dogs.
I am persuaded that every good
sense farmer, who is possessed of
anything approaching what is called
acreage property, would find raising
goats a profitable business. It is a
business that can not we'll be over
done.
The extent to which a farmer
should go in adding to his flock, or in
developing mich goats for sale, can
be best determined by him.
Whether one shall raise Angoras
for the clip or Swiss Maltese for milk
is matter for individual considera-
ton. There is money in both-there
is profit in each if one will go about
the business in a business-like man

DUCKS.
PROFIT
RUNNER
G. Stewart.

So much is being said about the
profit in this breed CT ducks, [ want
to say thCt I have yet to see anything
pertaining to the Runners that was
OVer-rated. The Indian Runner
Duck is a beautiful bird; it is sup
posed to come originally from the
West Indies, and was introduced into
this country some fifteen or twenty
years ago. They are very hardy, and
from the start they showed DISPOSE
ton to be great layers They are
regular little egg-machines. They
will lay every month in the year, if
fed for that purpose. My flock has
layed every month this year They
are especially good winter layers.
They moult good. and will keep
right on laying through the moult,
that is, if they are from a heavy
laying strain. One party has an In
dian Runner Duck that has layed
271 eggs in 10 months. That shows
what well-bred Indian Runner can
be made to do. In color they are
faWn and white, and pencil fawn
and white. They are beautifully
marked about the head and body.
They are very active foragers, but
tWo-fOot fence is all that is neces-
sary to confne them. No water is
required, except for drinking pur-
poses. Being of very hardy nature,
they are easily raised. The eggs are
of good size and are excellent for
table use. I want to say right here,
if you have never tried Indian Run
ner roasted, just try young drake
from three to four months old (the
ducks are too valuable to eat) and
see if it isn't the finest meat you ever
ate. Not being so large as the Pekin
ducks, the Indian Runner requires,
when they are matured, only about
tWo-thirds of the feed to keep them.
The best time for Matching the eggs,
is from February TO the last of
September These eggs hatch re

Runner Duck and you won't be dis
