upon the raising of poultry probably,
has the following to say on the sub
ject: 1T has seemed in studying the
birds in the fall of the year that the
change from the range to the laying
house, was an important one in the
life Of the bird, and that the results
during the subsequent winter with ref
erence TO egg production depended
much upon the way this transition
was made. 1t seemed advisable both
on general grounds and from observa.
ton of the birds themselves to make
this change as gradual as possible.
With this idea in mind the pullets
have been brought into the houses
from the range much earlier during
the past few years than was the Gus
tom beforehand the results have been
excellent. When the pullets are first
brought in 1t is not advisable to shut
them up entirely in tn, houses at
once. On the contrary, our work is
planned in such way that there is
always a freshly-seeded yard full of
green grass for the birds to run in
after they are brought into the house
until cold weather sets in. The fowls
are brought from free range into a
condition of restricted range, but with
better pasturage on the restricted
range than on the free range. The
yards are freshly seeded and have not
been trampled down or burned or
dried out by the sun, as is the grass
on the open range from which the
birds are taken. In this way the at.
tempt is made TO have the transition
from the range conditions to house
conditions as gradual as possible
After about two months of restricted
range, the birds are finally shut up in
curtain front house for the winter.
The feed of all adult birds, whether
pullets or not, consists of two essen.
tial parts: (a) The whole or cracked
grains scattered in the litter and OBJ
the mixture of dry ground grains gen.
orally known as dry mash In add.
ton to the grains and dry mash, oys,
Ter shell, dry cracked bone, grit and
charcoal are kept in Slated troughs,
and are accessible at all times Plen-
ty of clean water is furnished.
About five pounds of clover hay cut
into one-half inch lengths is fed dry
daily to each 100 birds in winter.

WoRKMEN OBSERVE THE RULE
Regulations Of Foremen, However, Do
Not Prevent Them Getting Their
Accustomed Beverage.

In the lower section of Manhattan a
new Office building is in the course of
erection. Hundreds of men, ironwork-
ers. carpenters. plasterers, etc, are
employed. The majority of sthese
workmen drink beer. Recently the
foremen of the different gangs com
bined and agreed to issue the follow
ing order:
Beer will be allowed only once a
day. and that is at noon time, and one
man is to go for it."
Now, persons who happen to be in
the vicinity OF the building around
11:45 o'clock see very curious sight.
II is this: A man emerges from the
nearly finished building with about
four beer cans on one arm and large
butter tub embraced in the other. He
starts in the direction of Church
street. In about fifteen minutes he can
be seen on his return trip with the
four cans overfiowing on one arm and
the butter tub still firmly embraced
and filled to the top.

Marble Windows,

Remarkably beautiful effects are Sc
cured by the use of marble as a
means of transmitting light instead Of
glass. This has been accomplished
by a new process which has been de-
vised by an engineer of Hamburg. w.
Engle. He has succeeded in making
plates of marble no more than three
millimeters in thickness and for the
use designated it is available up to
20 millimeters thick. The suitability
of marble for this purpose was real
lied some time ago, but the difficulty
encountered was that of securing the
marble in slabs of sufiicie thinness.
These plates permit of the passage Of
a greater amount of light than frosted
glass does, and at the same time i'm.
parts to the rays a much pleasanter
color Most opal glass imparts to the
light an undesirable greenish tinge,
while the light which passes through
the marble has a reddish violet which
is much pleasanter. After the marble
has been ground down to the desired
thickness it is subjected to an INNER.
sion in oil under high pressure, and
the effects secured in this manner are
said the superior to those of stained
glass.
