A Good Eou Food.

Cowpeas are not only relished by
hens, but it is excellent egg food for
them. One successful poultryman
gives his experiences: The peas. aft
er maturing, were harvested and
stored in dry lofts, and thrown to the
fowls in scratching pens, where they
were scratched over and searched for
during the day. After few days the
egg supply was visibly increased and
within a few weeks almost doubled
that from an equal number of hens
kept in separate quarters and fed on
other grains. The hens seemed to
like the small branches and leaves
snd would eat every particle except
the hard, stir stems. The general
health of the flock was excellent and
not a single hen showed the least
symptom of ailment during the winter
season. Considering the ease with
which cowpeas may be raised, it
seems that everyone should give them
test as food for the poultry.

and demonstrations of life-saving
methods and devices were given there
at frequent intervals to throngs OF
persons who had never seen such a
thing before
At the close Of the great show the
life-saving station and it's equipment
was sent to Cape May, where it did
yeoman service for many years, but
1t was eventually displaced by a more
commodious structure and improved
methods and apparatus. The present
equipment of the station is in sharp
contrast with that when the Centen-
NAL station was the pride of the
service. The boats were then light
that they might be easily handled,
but now they are heavy in order that
they may Withstand the surf's fury.
They were then propelled by oars
pulled by sturdy arms, but the boats
are now fitted with engines which will
drive them through towering waves.
And now the boats have holes in
the bottoms to let the water out, and
such a suggestion generation ago
would have been greeted with roars
of ridicule. The crafts Of the present
time are almost incapable of being
sunk Buffeted by any sea, they will
right themselves at once and empty
themselves of water in few seconds.
