Dent. who seems to be the most un-
known quantity on sGriffiths staff of re-
cruit pitchers. called at the managers
office this morning and Strengthened mat
tiers out. Dent looks as though he is fit
to go into a game right now. He has the
look of the athlete already in condition.
He did not have much to say relative
to whether or not he would make good.
He seemed to prefer to wait and show
what he could do rather than make pre-
dictions.
Dent began his career as a pitcher at
the Charlotte Hall Military College. He
was one of the most brilliant performers
among the school teams of that caliber,
and 1t was while there that he made the
reputation which gained him trial with
one of the clubs I'm the Carolina League.
He pitched brilliant ball in that circuit.
and went from there to Brooklyn in the
National League. He drifted away from
Brooklyn to one of the New England
clubs. and last season was with Newark
In the International League. While with
Newark Dent won thirteen games and
lost twelve, Newark finished third.

farmer who would Ike a combination,
they have furnished him with the
Wyandotte. Plymouth Rock and Red.
So you see II is a question Of sim
ply paying your money and taking
your choice The fancier has done
the slow and plodding work which
has taken years TO accomplish, Civ
ing II to the utility man all ready
TO work with.
OF course, the farmer may let the
barrs on the Rock get a little irreg,
ular. or the comb on the Leghorn be-
come a little top-heavy the Reds q
little meaIy in color, vet. in spite Of
all these little Irregularities they
maintain their valuable qualities and
serve the utility part TO a marked
degree. The fancier invented the trap
nest that egg production might be in
creased from an average Of 20 eggs
annually to $50 or better for the lay
ing breeds. OF. for the general-pur-
pose breeds for that matter. He has
led the van in giving better houses fOG
the hens that they might produce
eggs in winter as well as In summer
The fancier has furnished the cOun
try with the best appliances for the
economical handling of poultry In
great numbers. Take for example,
the incubator; II has been really the
solving Of the commercial poultry
problem Of this country. Just think
OF the hundreds Of thousands OF
chickens and ducks that are annually
turned out of these machines to m
the great markets Of our cities and
towns Machines holding as high as
so 600 eggs at a filling. Just think OF
II. 5000 hens to do the work Of that
one machine, which is looked after
by the attention Of one man not over
an hour each day The poultry fan
cier has made possible the diffusing
IF the best in poultry literature TO
one and all. The great poultry and
farm journals which the country sup
ports were made possible by him, and
in fact are largely supported by the
fancier The utility man takes ad-
vantage Of all these helps i'm fact
looks to them largely for his guidance.
Then we must not lose sight Of the
beauty part Of It, For there Is no
one. we believe, so completely en-
crossed in the making of money that
he does not enjoy the beautiful in
nature. Most Of as make our money
for the purpose of spending IL In tho
pursuit OF pleasure and happiness.
Why not double this pleasure by
having the pleasure right along with
the making Of the money. Flocks
Of pure bred poultry Of any variety
should be a pleasure for any one to
handle, on the other hand, a lot of
could hardly be an incen-
tive to any one, much less pleasure

Poultry Business Is
Indebted to Fanciers
Fifty Years Ago
Faneier Has Done the Slow and
Flooding Work Which Has TAX
en- Years to Accomplish.

How often we hear people say. "Oh,
/ do not want anything to do with
the fancy part of the chicken bust
ness: I am out for utility and I just
do not want to have anything to do
with the fancy part Of the business. -"
Some persons seem 20 have about the
same aversion TO the fancy that the
small boy does TO having his hands
and face washed.
They seem to think that that sounds
mighty practical and will help to keep
them from getting mixed up with
the fellows who are always talking
about shows and prizes and all such
things. Oh. yes. they want good
stock. but nothing fancy. The fan
cier can get along without the utility
man just about as well, II not better
than the utility man can get along
without the fancier In reality, they
need each other. Where would the
utility man be to-day IL the fancieT
had not gotten in his great work foI
the poultry industry. Just think of
it the fancier has given the country
all the pure breeds Of poultry from
which the utility people have taken
their foundation stock that has made
them what they are to-day He
brought the Brahmas. CoChins Lang
ghans and Legh0rns from other coun-
tries RE really manufactured the
Plymouth Rocks Wyandottes and
Reds frume other breeds and gave
them 10 us In shape that has made
them of the greatest value to the
farmer and market poultryman.
Where is there a utility man or farm
or who would be willing 10 blot out
all these breeds and go back 20 where
we were 90 years agO2 He has given
us such "a variety that the most ex-
acting along any line Of utility work
can be supplied with about what his
needs require. There is the Brahma
or Cochin IL a strictly meat breed is
desired; or the LeEhorn, Minorca or
Spanish. strictly for eggs For tho

WHERE WE FIND EMERALDS
Famous Muzo Mines In the Republic
of Colombia Produce Finest
Gems.

The finest emeralds are found in
the Republic of Colombia, at the IA
nous Muzo mines in the department
of Boyaca, seventy miles north by
west of Bogota, which have been
worked since 1858. The Spaniards
mined there in the middle of the six
teenth century, but withdrew after
time, owing to continual fighting
with the Indians; with the result that
for awhile the locality of the mines
was unknown. They are now worked
by an English company, in partner
ship with the government. The emer-
aids at Muzo occur in calcite veins
running through black carboniferous
limestone in all directions and at all
angles. Often the limestone is cov-
cred with earth, in which bushes and
trees are growing; this has to be
cleared before prospecting is possible.
When calcite veins have been located,
the side Of the hill is dug away in
banks" usually by Indians, whose
chief tool is steel bar forged to a
point at one end. The pieces of cal
cite vein are examined superficially
for emeralds, and are then set aside
for conveyance to the sorting-shed,
where detailed examination is made,
and the emeralds are divided into fif-
teen grades according to color, trans
parency, size, freedom from flaws, and
SO on.
