HELPING HENS TO GROW.
British scicntist's Comment ON Usc-
fulness of Electricity.

In England recently T Thorne Baker
lecturcd before the Society ~ Arts on
the application OF electricity and radio
active earths to crops. &c He said one
Of the essentials for successful electro
culture were electrical currents Of an
extremely minute character The same
thing applied in the case OF the use OF
radioactive earth. Almost every !ndi'
vidual plant or organism required Its
own particular tyne of electricity II the
best results were to be obtained An In
teresting application of efuve discharge
was carried out with the blight occur
ring on growing gooseberiy bushes. bu;
the most profitable application Of cleo
tricity 10 the farm was that Of chicken
rearing with one-inch induction coil,
and this could successfully treat a thou
sand chickens.
In experiments carried out on Ran.
dolph Meech's poultry farm at Poole. an
Intensive chicken house consisting OF six
fats. each large enough to accommodate
seventy-five chickens was electrified by
large helix of heavily insulated wire
wound round IL in turns about six Inches
apart The current was applied for ten
minutes every hour during the dav. SiN
chickens only out Of a total Of 400 died
showing a mortality OF only Is per cent
and the chickens were ready for m1rk"'
despatch In Ave weeks as against three
months
Thorne Bakers own frst results were
made on weight only the chickens PC
ceiving the same amount OF food and
being weighed Al regular intervals After
three months the increase n weight OF
the electrified chickens was about 81 pet
cent. In another Instance one set OF
chickens WAS grown against another
and the electrified chickens only received
two-thrds Of the food given tper chicken
to the others After one month the weight
per bird was the same.
An English magazine, commenting or
the lecture, says: Mr.. II. q. Weiss ro'

MAKING MENDELIAN CROSS.
Purely Bred Poultry Necessary to

When making Mendelian cross II IL

Menders dctum. Mendelism has not
good name among poultry breeders, which
Is n fact deeply to be regretted. The fauli
does not lie in Mendelism, which Is purely
a mathematical science; II lies In the
characters experimental with. which In

applied to poultry by experts many di1l-
'ulties have been met with neNerthe'ess
its truth has been made abundantly mani

cIalIy the novice, must avoid the ms'ak'
Of forming hasty conclusions: conclusions
thus formed are more frequently wrong
than right The trouble Hes In this; they
remember one-half OF Menders law and
entirely forget the rest. Let us take an
example to make the point clear.
These two things have been proved by

that my White Wyandottes have single

Here we have a total of thirty-eight
breeds OF chickens and los distinct vari-

Nantams We still have left eighty-two
kinds OF large fowls, enough to keep the

numbers within a short time.
The American class contains nVe
breeds, OF which the Plymouth Rocks.
Wyandottes and Rhode Island Reds are
the most popular. Birds OF this class
average medium to large In size, and are
regarded as being ideal general purpose
fowls, making excellent table poultry ana
laying well when properly handled. They
are husky and hardy. can stand consld-
cradle grief and still make good
showing The hens lay brown shelled
eggs of good size and are unexcelIed as
Gtters and mothers.
Practically all OF these breeds dress
OF attractively. having full breasts, yell
low skin and shanks.
They are particularly suited to Ameri-
can conditions and deserve the great
popularity which they enjoy among all
classes OF poultry keepers, whether ran
ciers, speciality poultrymen. farmers or
owners OF home fiocks.
The Asiatic class includes the brah-
mas, Coch!ns and Langshans, all OF which

Ing twelve pounds. As class these fowls
sre sluggish and docile slow In reaching
maturity and more valuable for the pro-
dlction OF meat than Of eggs. They are
largely used by growers OF capons and
roasting chickens However some
ttralns OF Langshans are excellent layers
and Individual Brahmas and Cochins have
