reducing the labor during the cold
months. The first system is more
suited for hens used solely for the pro-
duction of market eggs than for those
used to breed stock.
As Few Fences az Possible.
Fences mean an outlay Of money,
and this outlay is more or less contin-
uous, as they must be maintained after
being installed. There should be as
few fences as possible dividing the
lots and the yards, as land can be
kept sweet" more easily II not fenced,
and fresh, sweet land is a valuable as
set in poultry raising.
On good soil, a greensward may be
kept up by allowing 200 to $50 square
feet of land per bird. This means PIT
or ia birds per acre. More space is
necessary on poor or light land. A
larger number of fowls are usually
kept to the acre where double yards
are used and the land is frequently
cultivated. Plymouth rocks and other
heavy meat breeds in small yards re-
quire fences five to six feet high, while
a fence six to seven feet high is neces-
sary for leghorns. The upper two feet
Of the fence for the latter may be in

grees, or a strand of barbed wire may
be used on top Of the regular wire to

times necessary to clip the wing feath-

along the top of the fence Is not ad-

an arrangement.
Posts may be set or driven into the
ground. They should be set eight to
ten feet apart with common poultry
netting, or 16 to 20 feet with woven
wire. Corner posts should be about
eight inches in diameter, and be set
four feet in the ground. while inter-
vening posts may be four or five
inches in diameter and set three feet

four extra guns on each ship throwing
shells away from the other are not
counterbalanced by any projectiles
thrown in the direction OF the other
ship, and thus the two vessels, under
the action Of incessant firing, will
gradually approach. The reaction
drives the ships towards each other.
and a similar reaction is necessarily
at work among the heavenly bodies

pulsive forces in nature, and Is really

A similar explanation to that made

and the magnetism Of the earth, which
has puzzled philosophers for over
three centuries, since Gilbert pub
lished his first work ON magnets in
the year 1900. The magnets are re-
ceiving and transmitting outwardly
streams Of minute corpuscles moving
with the velocity Of light, and the re-
action thus arising gives rise to ap-
parent attraction, the intensity being
greatly augmented over that of gravi-
tation because the molecular groups
are so arranged as to direct the repul
sion of the particles uniformly along
certain lines, whereas in gravitation
there is a haphazard arrangement of
the molecular groups, and the reac-
tons largely destroy each other, leav-
ing only q feeble residue Of attraction
equal in all directions.
In the case OF the earth, under the
electrifying our globe for hundreds OF
millions of years. the streams of cleo
trically charged particles containing
iron and other substances running
through 1t with almost the velocity of
light, has converted our planet into a
great magnet. thus confirming the old
idea of Gilbert In confirmation OF
this view. Professor See points out
that the magnetic poles of the earth
are essentially perpendicular to the
ecliptic in which the sun revolves,
showing a fundamental dependence.
An intimate connection between the
earth's magnetic storms and the sun
spot disturbances has been known for
three-q quarters of a century; but the
significance of the observations OF
John Allen Droun about 1S45 that
there is a magnetic tide In the earth
depending on the moon and varying
according to exactly the same law as
the tides of the sea, has not been pre-
viously appreciated. This magnetic
tide is direct observational proof that

In conclusion Professor See pointed

Lord Raleigh that 1t is the fundamen-

by Pope Nicholas in $50.
Just when the first coronet was add

second was placed by Pope Boniface
VIII in 1895 and the, third by Pope
Urban v about 1898.
It has been held that the three
crowns refer to the holy trinity.
though that evidently could not have
been the original idea. for they would
certainly have not been added one
after the other with an intervening
period In each case of many years.
Some authorities contend that they
denote the three-fold royalty of the

of the temporal power over the
Roman states; another the spiritual
exercised over the souls Of men, and
the third the authority over all the
kings and potentates Of Christendom.
