Believe Us, the Wind Did Blow

When DR.. w. B. Guy left his Spring
street residence this morning the side
walk rose up and hit his face. AS he
walked along Broadway the street oc-
casionally tipped up at an angle of
forty-fve degrees, and between the
Broadway corner of Phila street and
his office ne had to climb hard in order
to make his way up the street. AS
he entered his office the floor suddenly
sloped down and he had to brace him
self in order to keep from falling.
No, Cerise, you're wrong. DR.. Guy
was just recovering from his "sea
legs" which he gained in one of the
widest trips from Bermuda, the steam
ship Oceana ever made. DR.. Guy has
been spending a couple of weeks in
Bermuda, and left Tuesday noon tor
home. The Oceana hadn't gone far,
when the same breeze which had been
playfully ripping off church towers in
this village, struck the ship. A a rate
of seventy miles an hour the wind took
the ship in its hands and played with it
as if it were kitten. At one time the
ship made but six miles in three hours.
At other times three knots an hour was
the best the ship could do.
DR.. Guy said this morning that it was
the worst storm he had ever seen on
the ocean. Every one of the passengers
was sick, including the doctor, himself.
1T was a sad OCCASION" he said to a
Saratogian reporter this morning. 81
lost everything l had, even my hope
that ever would reach Saratoga"
The returning Saratogian declared
that the contrast between Saratoga
this morning and Bermuda when he left
was very great. The flowers are all
out, and Bermuda visitors are enjoy
ing fresh vege tables picked from the
gardens. From the Saratogian, Dec. 80.

A lease has been signed by which two
Greeks in Chicago have agreed to pay
three thousand three hundred dollars a
year for space eight feet square, in
which to polish shoes. One of the men,
now only twenty-one years old, came to
America five years ago. He has been
polishing shoes ever since. Recently
he bought lot of land in the city for
seven thousand five hundred dollars,
and on it put up two-story brick house
that cost three thousand five hundred.

A new movement of population has
taken place in the little mountain town
of Sandgate, population 10. -Four
Germans and Swede have bought five
farms bought them with money they
saved up in New Jersey because they
found that they could buy them at less
than the cost of the buildings. The five
newcomers are men with families, they
have had experience in farming in the
old world, and they are reputed to be
Woodworking and thrifty. 1t seems to
US that they have chosen the wrong
time of year for exchanging the New
Jersey climate for that of Vermont.
If the present weather continues the
change will be hardly noticeable, but
if genuine northern winter closes in
on our new residents the natural home
sickness of change of location may be
painfully intensified. This, however, is
a small item comparatively. The
original Pilgrims were immeasurably
worse off and if they could stand the
change from Holland and England, our
immigrants ought to pull through the
winter. We expect to hear of them as
coming out in the spring all right and as
proving the advance guard of a large
immigration. Burlington News.

While there are few egg producers
who take the best of care of their prod
uct, the average farmer considers the
eggs produced on the farm by-product
and makes little provision for their care
aside from gathering them says a writer
in poultry journal. A large loss is
caused by dirty eggs, the number being
enormous, and according to the estimate
of Secretary Wilson of the department
of agriculture, the money loss to the
farmers in the United States amounts
to about SIS, 600, 900 annually. This loss
is very largely brought about by not
gathering the eggs often enough. In
wet weather more dirty eggs are found
than at any other time. This is caused
by the fact that the hens feet are often
covered with mud or other filth, and in
going on the nest to lay she soils the
eggs already in the nest. An INSULT
cient number of nests is often the cause
of many of the dirty eggs found. Eggs
are laid on the ground and around the
hay and straw stacks, and becoming

stained, are classed as "dirties. !"
Again. when too many eggs are allowed
to remain in a nest some are broken and
many of them are smeared with broken
'yolks. This condition is often brought
about by allowing the broody hens to
use the same nests with the layers. On
a farm where one nest to every four
hens is provided and the nests are kept
clean and we'll bedded, it is found that
very few dirty eggs are produced. Aft
er gathering the eggs, care should be
taken not to put them where they will
become heated, or near oil, onions, or
other vegetables, as they readily absorb
odors. Although dirty eggs may be
perfectly fresh, they invariably sell as
seconds, and when a few dirty eggs
are mixed with an otherwise fresh,
clean lot, they materially decrease the
price of the clean eggs.
