larger eggs than hens on stinted feed.
with many fiocks the addition of an
ample supply of meat TO the ration will
cause marked increase in the size of
the egg. Hens with plenty of exercise
and comfortable surroundings lay
heavier eggs than those in restricted
quarters, often eggs ten per cent
heavier.
The eggs should be perfect in shape.

The yolk should stand up firmly. A
watery yollt that runs badly and flat

caring for the hens. or in exposing the
egg to unfavors bic temperatures.
Alfalfa, green or dry leaves, produce
an ideal color in the yolk when the
hens have an abundance sof it. The
pale, sickly colored yolk found in 50
many eggs In the winter is often caused
by lack of green or succulent feed, and
invariabl reduces the consumption OF
eggs. It WIFI pay the poultry grower to
make a careful study Of the color and
quality of yoik that is demanded by
the high class trade, and then learn
how to produce 1t. The white OF a
freshly broken egg should be thick. like
cream or syrup, and should appear
fresh and glistening. A watery white
that runs badly is an abomination.
a fresh egg eaten within three hours
after It has been laid has such a de-
hcious favor that it seems not to be
the same kind of food as an older egg
no matter how good.

The Dispatch is being commended
on every side for it's absolute fairness
to all candidates during the campaign.
From the very beginning we took the
position that, in the governors race
for instance, both of the }eading can
didates were known to the people and
their records were known, and the
people should have the right to say for
themselves who they wanted to rule
over the destinies of the State. In
county politics, while we had our pref
erences of course, we took it for grant
ed that the candidates were sufficiently
known to the people; and as practical
" all of the candidates for the State
senate and house stood on the same
platforms, there was no reason why
we should enter into discussion OF
the issues or the peculiar fitness of the
several candidates. We believe in the
rule of the people, and when they ex-
press their choice at the ballot box, we
are ever ready and willing to stand by
the nominees.

The Face With a Steady
Shine.

Did you ever in your going
Meet face with a steady shine?
One you could not say was handsome,
Not a single feature fine,
But a face that held you strongly
With a look that thrilled like wine,
Yet recalled an autumn landscape,
With its rich, rare, steady shine?
When you looked again, hair parted
You found from a forehead square,
But you did not mind the squareness
Nor the tawny hue of hair.
And the nose was slightly tilted,
And a trife out of line,
But you did not care farthing'
For there was the steady shine.
And your thoughts went back to
mother,
And the prayer beside her knee,
And you wondered you'd forgotten
The man you meant to be.
And your heart beat quick and tender'
And your eyes were wet with dew
All because in mornings going
That one face had come to view.
