HIGHEST SEAT IN LONDON.
Steeplejacks' View From The Gross Of
st. Paul's.

Working peacefully 3G5ft. above the City
streets, four experienced steeplejacks were
engaged on Tuesday i'll measuring the bal
and cross of St. Pauls Cathedral in counec-
ton with an estimate for regilding.
The men worked on ladders rising from
a scatfold platform just under the ball. To
reach this scaffold they had to climb about
500 steps inside the building, and spent
about an hour during the day in going up
stairs.
One of the men, who has been fourteen
years a steeplejack, said; eve all four of us
sat right on the top of the cross for a while
and had a good look over London"
The repairs which are proceeding at the
cathedral have revealed further damage to
the structure. Iu the clock tower many of
the iron clamps which hold together the
s%tonework were found to be corroded, and
have had to be replaced. Mr.. Mervvn
Mccartney, the chapter architect, stated on
Tuesday hat it was not a serious source of
danger.--Doiiy MaiI, July GOTH.

Judge +. J. Marshall: Would II pay
half dozen enthusiastic fanciers or
breeders Of pure-b bred poultry to or

Answer: Immediate returns in the
shape Of receipt from the showroom
could not be counted upon, although
= is not entirely out of the question.
Old breeders and those who have had
experience in the showroom matters
feel that they have been quite sue
cessful in holding a local show as
above indicated if they can pay small
premiums, pay hall rent, pay the
judge and come out without being in
debt In fact many go as far as to
agree to give $40 each to meet any
deficiency that might arise, and feel
that they have made a good invest
ment if il does not cost them more
than that amount, The question very
naturally arises: Where does the
profit come in? The breeders of ex-

better way to advertise and reach the
buyer direct than by these local
shows. He also makes record that
he can place in his advertisement in
the papers (where the wise breeders
keep one at all times) that will insure
confidence in prospective buyers sur
hc!ent to pay for all the trouble and
expense incurred by the venture
say by all means get your fanCiers
together and hold the best show you
can. Let every one know about it
for miles around. Charge but a small
admission and get everybody posi-
Bile to see the exhibit Appoint a re-
Ception committee to show the Wis
itors around and explain the different
kinds of fowls to them, the good
points of each and why pure bred
poultry will pay them so much better
than "dunghills.' The chances are
that the next year you will have a
much larger exhibit at less expense
in proportion Six or eight good work
ing, wide awake breeders can hold
a show better than % careless ones
each of whom expects to have some
one else to do the work The poul-
try business is in such a healthy
state in this country that there is but
little risk in attempting any sort of a
practical enterprise connected with
the business. Hold good local shows,
advertise judiciously and success is
sure to come,
