SUNDAY GAMES ARE NOT

Gamblers from Philadelphia swoop
down upon Augustine Park every
Sunday and run their games in a
Geld between Port Penn and the park,
apparently without molestation.
Yesterday was no exception to the
rule, and when the steamer Columbia
arrived at the Port Penn wharf with
crowd OF excursionists, several
Young men went to the field between
the wharf and Augustine Park and
started their games. The park man
agement will not permit the gamblers
10 run their games within the park.
The steamer Thomas Clyde lands at
the park pier.
"Three card monte" is a favorite
game, and five young men were running
that game.
"You pay me if you pick the red and
I pay you il YOU pick the black"
suavely calls the gambler, who in every
case Is a well-dressed young man of the

public lay bets, every advantage by

of the game.

game According to persons who
we're at the park yesterday the gam

kuRlos FROM CORRESPONDENTS

Q. When is the fertility of eggs low
est? A. Generally in midwinter.
O. Some of my hens have died. and
on opening them found their gizzards
very large. What is the cause and
cure for such an ailment? A. Const-
patton, unless tumor has blocked the
operation of the intestnes. The latter
cause is rare. A half teaspoonful OF
epson salts in water for adult fowl
would help patient If given in time
The gizzard is distended simply be-
cause the food cannot go farther.
Q. Please state the crosses that made
the Slate and Bourbon Red turkeys.
A. 1t is claimed the Slate came from
cross of the White Holland and
Black and the Bourbon from cross
of Bronze and Buff.
Q. What influence for color has cab
bage on the egg yolk. and what does
put that rich yellow in 1t In winter?
A. Cabbage makes a light yolk. and
surplus gives tiabby egg OF poor ia
vor and keeping quality. Yellow corn.
clover or alfalfa puts the gold in the
yolk and helps to make finest hen fruit
O. In your experience with the lay
ers of white eggs and the layers OF
brown eggs which class have you
found Is more constant to color OF
shell? A. The white egg breeds we
have kept have never failed to lay a
chalky white egg, but we have found
the brown egg layers to lay eggs from
d dark brown to almost white. individ
