Soft-shelled eggs are usually pro-

generally lies in the fact that the bros

the soft-shelled egg Is the result.
Lime is one of the necessary mate

CARVED WITH 4 POCKET KNIFE

A clever carved model of the cap
itol buildings at Washington, D. c.,
has been made by Prof. George F.
Savers, of Stokesville, Va. The
carving is of wood and was made
with no other tool than an ordinary
pocket knife, not even a carpenters
square being used omit. The cary
ing consists of more then three
thousand pieces. The woods pop
lar, white pine and white walnu'.
The height of the building is ten
inches to the crest of the Liberty
statute. The structure is two feet
long and about eight inches wide,
The grounds contain a hundred
and forty-one trees, made of felt
of different shades of green, which
supply a beautiful setting to the
work. The statute of Washington
seated with his right arm uplifted
faces the central portico. A num-
Der of spectators are standing
around the statue, while others are
to be seen on the steps of oppisite
wings of the Capitol. The carving
is, of course, painted white, with
exception of the Liberty statue,
which is a golden hue, is silhouetter
against a back ground of sky and
clouds. From the July Strand.

tall Is Covered Up.

When SHOWS cover the ground for
long periods, there Is danger to the
fruit trees and shrubs. The supply of
food for the cottontail Is covered, and
he is driven to the trees.
Many small trees will be injured
the present winter, says Homestead,
and owners must be vigilant to avoid
damage. The shotgun and the trap
will do something to thin out the
rodents, but they cannot be depended
upon for perfect protection. Feed
may be supplied by throwing down
apple trimmings. Poison may be
used, strychnine in sweet apples. Also
there are fifty applications for the
bark which cause the enemy to avoid
the trees which have been treated.
Grease, blood, fetta-each has its adj
vocates.
If veneer protectors are put on now
press them down well into the snow
and see that they are long enough 80
that, II drifts form about the trees,
the rabbit will not get free passage
into the tops. Large trees are prac'
tically safe from the enemy, because
he cannot stretch his mouth to lit
them, but the small tree makes his
opportunity.

Gulneas "a Watchers,

A good point about guineas Is that
they make good watch dog" Every
person who writes of these fowls men,
lions this point, but good thing will
bear repeating, in common with wild
birds, they are always on the lookout
for enemies, and quickly detect hawks,
dogs, strange persons, ETC., that ven
ture near. Their wild cries on such
occasions soon put the intruders to
rout, and also put all the fowls on
the place on their guard. If hawks
are numerous few .guineas in the
flock will prove of great help in pre-.
venting their depredations.
