Pooling the Hens
ihn New Ynrk Prees.

From the New York Press.
 owners of hens are frequently great Iy annoyed by the persistent desire of their fowls to sit, in season and out, on eggs. stones or other objects to hand, but a western man has evolved a plan to circumvent the hen in this respect.
 The cure consists of a cheap watch, with A loud clear tick. inclosed in case that is white and shaped like an egg. When one of the hens belonging to this westerner manifests desire to sit out of season he gently places the bogus egg under her sheltering breast. The "esg" ticks cheerfully away, and soon the hen begins to evince signs of uneasiness and stirs the noisy egg around with her bill, thinking no doubt. that 1t is already time for it to hatch. She becomes more and more uneasy as the noise continues. and soon jumps off the nest and runs about a while to cool off. Soon, however. she returns to her self-imposed task. Matters get worse and worse: she wiggies about and caclxles. ruffles her feathers and gen. erallv shows distress. Finally. with q wild sauawk, she abandons the nest for good and all. and the incubating fever is broken completely.
 The westerner has found use for half a lozen of these noisy eggs. and he claims that they pay for themselves again and again during the year by holding hens to their business of laying and preventing them from wasting the golden hours in useless incubatlng.
