LONDON. March zs.--The Evening
Times constantinopie correspondent
says that the Turkiah war ministry
is hastily preparing to mobilize the
army in expectation OF an attack by
both Austria and Bulgaria.
Austria is reported az massing
troops on the borders OF the San5ak
OF Novi- Bazaar and aiong the Monte
negrin frontier. Bulgaria lie suspect
ed on account OF the recent suthori-
xation to Gear Ferdinand by the Bull
garian parliament to make secre,

The Times says that Turkeys pre-
occupation by the rebellion In the
Yemen has probably been deemed a
favorable opportunity for the seizure
of Turkish territory by Austria and
Bulgaria.

Building an Egg Laying Strain.

Much has been said and written on
how to build up an egg-layinS strain
OF hens, and each year the call for an
egg-laying strain in all breeds is heard
more and more. This is feature many
poultrymen are neglecting in their ef-
forts to produce birds OF fine feat ers
It is the winners in the show rooms too
many breeders are striving for, and
they are sacrificing the ever necessary
quality in their f1ocks. Farmers who
patronize these breeders are disap-
pointed in the stock obtained, simply
because they were not developed along
the line of egg laying. In breeding up
flock Of heavy layers a wel-known
breeder gives his experience as follows:
For tn last eleven years have bred
Single Comb Brown Leghorns for
heavy Production of large white eggs.
My plan has been to sell all surplus
stock each fall, keeping only what 1
could conveniently house and yard
without crowding. These I divide into
as many focks as convenient. keeping
puiets and hens by themselves. The
first few years I had but three pens,
but since then have had eight, placing
an equal number in each pen, making
conditions as nearly alike as possible.
When December comes my pullets
are in line for laying and the hens that
l kept have their new Tea Tiers and are
ready for business. l then keep ar

OF December and January, and the pen
