THOUGHTS OF SPRING FEEDS
Birds Should Have Variety, Especially
Great Deal Reasonably Rich in Pro-
tein-lime Is Needed.

Apoplexy among fowls is generally
confined to the overfat birds and gen.
orally the heavier breeds are subject
to ii. 1t is, therefore, necessary that
the keeper does not feed any great
quantity of fat-forming feeds to his
birds, especially to the heavier breeds.
In the spring of the year more than
any other time of the year the birds
should have variety of feeds. and
especially great deal of feed reason
ably rich in protein should be includ-
ed in the ration.
Soft-shelled eggs are usually pro-
duced in considerable numbers at this
time of the year. The reason for this
generally lies in the fact that the birds
do not get the proper feed. To form
an egg shell the proper materials must
be present, and If they are not present
the soft-shelled egg is the result.
Lime is one of the necessary mate
Tials needed in the formation of an
egg shell, and at this time of the year,
when the hens are beginning to lay.
a liberal amount of lime should be
present at all times where they can
partake of it when they desire. In pro-
viding any kind of feed whether il be
vegetable or animal feed, be sure that
it is pure and wholesome. Musty
grains and rotten meats will cause
sickness many times when the flock is
IN perfect health.

Guineas as Watchers.

A good point about guineas is that
they make good watch dog" Every
person who writes of these fowls men-
tions this point, but a 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.

He says he does his own COOKING"
Mrs. Buss' lips set firmly and then
parted in laugh. And her answer
was enigmatical.
'He doesn't know me-" she said.
'Where do the trappers and hunters
around these parts sell their pelts?'
There's a fellow comes through
about this time and buys them up
from Laramie. l can get his name if
if you want it."
''Get it," said Mrs. Buss.
About a week later Three Cheers
was startled to find an announcement
in Mrs. Buss'twindow. 1t stated that
therein was the agency for Barclay &
Burden, furriers, of Laramie, followed
by tempting list of prices for pelts.
Lon considered the situation from
all points. 1t looked strategic to
him, and yet he was a modest man,
and knew not the limit of a woman's
patience. Several times he spread
out his seasons catch and looked
them over-deer, bear, fox, wolf, ct
ter and coon skins. He resented Mrs.
Buss' assumption of authority. 1t had
been part of the yearly excitement,
the visit of the buyer to his cabin, ard
the swapping of stories over the sale.
Yet the second week after the sign ap-
peared in the bakery window he went
down tc the camp bearing his catch
with him and look of resignation.
He had purposely chosen midafter-
noon for his visit. The other men
would be up in the timber then. He
wanted as few witnesses as possible.
Come right I'M" called Mrs. Buss
cheerily, as his long shadow fell
across her threshold. She lifted a
smiling, contented face from her knit
ting. "Why. hello, Lonnie," she said.
Got pretty good catch there, have
MT you?"
Lon said nothing, but he dropped
the pelts.
"Shut the door. DEAR" added Mrs.
Buss. "And don't get nervous. I'm
not going to hector you a bit. Sit
down and talk"
Hadn't We better look the pelts
over first?" asked Lon bewilderedly.

The graves Of the early Egyptians
were always we'll provided with such
necessaries as were thought essential
for the spirit of the departed when it
again materialiZed. Consequently, the
relics from Tarkhan include headrests
(some of them carved out OF trees
trained specially into peculiar shapes), 4,
sandals, large jars of food, and various
vessels of gypsum and semi-transpar-
ent alabastar. Some Of the vases bear
the name of Mena, the earliest known
Egyptian king. They are considered
by some experts to be tribute CORE
spending to the modern floral wreath.
Evidence is also provided of the lack
of historical sentiment in the Roman
occupants of Egypt by numerous exam
pies of inscribed Egyptian tablets that
have been used as hearth stones, door
lintels, and mill stones. There Is also
ample evidence Of the belief that sac
rilege among the tombs was more COM

new SPHINX FOUND
Student of British Museum Dis
covers 1t in Egypt.
Figure Fourteen Feet High of AIabas.
ter, Dug From Between the Co.
Iossi in Water-Logged Plain
of Old Memphis.

Cairo, Egypt. - Another sphinx,
weighing ninety tons, and carved from
single block of alabaster, has been
unearthed at point between the
world-famed Colossi, on the water
logged plains of Memphis, in Egypt.
For hundreds of years it has lain in a
recumbent position buried beneath the
sands on the road to Sakkareh. To-
day it is half-exposed to view, and
next year it is to be raised to a verti-
cal position above the water-line.
This newly found sphinx was betray-
ed in its hiding place by it's tail, which
Mr.. Mackay, one Of the students of the
British School in Egypt, discovered
about year ago. This year, when
the water on the plain subsided, the
complete figure was excavated, and
was found to measure some fourteen
feet in height and twenty-six feet in
length. Alabaster being rock foreign
to the neighborhood, the new sphinx
ranks as the largest that has ever
been transported. The figure bears no
inscription, but is considered by Prof
Flinders Petrie, the director of the
British School in Egypt, to have been
carved about 1900 B. G. Many other
remarkable discoveries, taking the
mind back as far as $500 B. c., and
lifting the veil Of centuries from
Egypt's romantic story, have also been
made by the same school, and, with
the exception of a red granite group
of Rameses II and the god Ptah, which
will be sent direct to the Ny Carlsberg
Museum at Copenhagen, and a few
other details, are now on exhibition at
University College, Cover street. They
include many objects quite new to
Egyptologists.
Among these are coffins made of
basket work, reeds or withes, sandal
trays, an axe handle, in which the grip
is composed of delicately knotted
string, pot of unburnt incense for a
I'fire-offering of 1000 B. c., and numer-

accommodation than anything else.
"Some of my friends were present
and witnessed the marriage. They
complimented me and told me that
ought to make marrying business
After that I did not decline to Offer
my services whenever a couple came
my way. Month by month the bust
ness grew until I sometimes married
from three to six couples day"
So rapidly did the minister's mar
rying business increase that he built
