FIRST HIGH SILK HAT

II was in January, 1897, that the
first high silk hat was seen upon a
mans head The London Times in its
Issue of Jan. 16 of that year related
the event as follows:
John Hetherington, mercer in the
Strand, was arraigned before the lord
mayor. who found him guilty of dis
orderly conduct and melting to riot
and imposed fine of $500. Mr..
Hetherington, with the evident inten-
tion Of frightening the people, appear
ed in the public street wearing a
strange high hat covered with very
glossy silk, the luster of which daz.
Zled the sight. According to the tes
ttmony of the constables, several WON
en- tainted at the sight, children
screamed with fright, the panic
stricken crowd fled and one of the
sons of Mr., Thomas Currior was
thrown down in the excitement and
broke his arm"

you can tell her that. But you're
smart, Joel, you'll find way. Good
luck to you" and the elder member
of the firm was off to enjoy his va
cation, to the delight of his bachelor
heart
Four weeks later when Mr.. Simeon
Smith returned to the city he went
directly to the quarters he had shared
for years with his brother. 1t had
always seemed to him that Joel mo-
nopolized more than his share of the
room, but things seemed so strangely
tidy that he concluded his brother
must at last have realized how sell
fish it was to leave his possessions
scattered about.
Leaving his travelling bag, Simeon
hastened to the shop. After all, there
was no place more to his liking than
the old stand, and he was certainly
looking forward to getting into the
harness again. The Swinging sign

Keep the chicks free from lice. They
cannot grow well and fight lice at the
same time.
Old geese lay n greater number
and larger eggs and are more reliable
than young geese.
Young geese do not lay as many fer
tile eggs or produce as many goslings
in the first breeding season as they
do in the second.
Fresh air and sunshine are the best
dsinfectants that the poultry raiser
has at his disposal, and ought to be
more often used in his work
The Indian Runner ducks are not
very good sitters, although they are
ofteS inclined to incubate. Their eggs
are generally put into incubators or
under hens for Matching.
There Is no doubt that If the guinea
hen is properly cared for at all times
that It will prove almost as profitable
as any OF the ordinary breeds of chick
ems.
Ducks are not very useful after the
fourth or fifth year for breeding pur-
poses.
Hens bred for laying, properly cared
for and properly fed ought to produce
1875 to as high as 200 eggs per year
per hen.
The ducklings should have a great
deal Of shade. Extreme hot weather
will kill them.
When chicks become very much
crowded they are liable to sweat in
the broder at night and take cold, be
come chilled, and this cause trouble.

FEEDING HOT CORN TO HENS
Should be Supplemented With Wheat
and Oats-Fowls Also Like Their
Water Heated a Trifle.

If the hens are fed hot corn for
supper, they will go to bed happy
these cold winter nights. Feed 1t just
as hot as they can eat 1t comfortably.
Shell some In the baking pan, and stir
and heat in the oven.
AS the weather grows colder, in
crease the supply of corn. 1t is a
heating food. But never feed II alone
A good grain mixture for winter Is
two parts of whole corn, one part
each wheat and oats, all well mixed.
Many hens never know what 1t is
to be comfortable from one end of
the winter to the other, except on
day when 1t thaws. You cannot ex-
pect hens to do well under such con-
ditions. To do well they must be
comfortable.
The worst thing is to make poultry
drink ice-cold water. They must
warm that water before the work of
digestion can go ON again. Warm the
water for them-not hot, but just
comfortably warm.

THOUSAND -YEAR-OLD BREAD

During recent excavations at Ljun-

which must be quite 1000 years old.
1t has been carefully examined and
has been found to consist OF pea-flour
and the bark of the fir tree. The lat
ter is nothing unusual, for during
many times of sore hardship the
Swedish peasantry have had to fall
back upon bark bread, made simply
from the bark of the trees. There are

EXCELLENT RATION FOR EGGS
Prof. Chambers Ascrlbes His Success
TO Intelligent Feeding, Good Care
and Trap Nesting.

At a poultry institute, held by the
Colorado agricultural college last
summer. Prof. w. G. Chambers exhib
tied a Rhode Island Red hen that has
laid 200 eggs in one year
Prof. Chambers keeps from forty
to fifty hens on town lot and has
TO buy all his feed. He keeps an ac-
curate account of all expenses, and
last year for feed, louse killer, straw
and all incidentals, the cost was one
dollar per hen. He uses trap nests
and keeps no hen that lays less than
l20 eggs in twelve months. The av-
erage for his entire flock is little
over twelve dozen eggs hen per
annum.
The average price in the open mar
ket for the year for eggs has been 25
cents dozen This makes at market
price an income of three dollars a
hen for the year-two dollars hen
more than the cost of feed where all
feed has to be purchased.
Prof. Chambers has made more than
this amount because he has sold some
of his eggs for Matching. He ascribes
his success TO intelligent feeding,
good care and trap-nesting. His hens
are given dry feed entirely. He gives
a light feed of whole wheat and corn
three times a day, scattering the grain
in the litter.
He keeps before his hens all the
