JAY OWEN SPRINGS
FREAKISH EGG
IT HAS FIGURES 1175 VERY
PLAINLY IMPRINTED UPON
THE SHELL.

Jay Owen, the we'll known busman
at the Bethel House, brought to The
Herald office this morning freakish
egg that has caused no little com.
ment. The egg Is Of the usual size.
but the inscriptions which the hen
put upon 1t is the thing which at
tracts most notice. On the brown
shell Is imprinted very plainly the
figures "1175." AS the hen is ten
years old she simply informed her
owner in this way that this is the
eleven hundredth and seventy-fifth
egg that she has deposited in a aest.
Below the figures are intertwined
very gracefully the flags of the Unit.
ed States and Mexico. Mr.. Owen in
terprets this to mean that there will
soon be peace between the warning
nations. AS the first blood Of the

tirely appropriate that the first har.

Care of the Brood Mare and FOal.
Many brood mares are overworked,
while many others are kept too closely
confined. The mare may be safely
worked to within two weeks of foaling
If good care is used to see that she is
not overworked or injured in some
other way. 1t is not unusual for mares
which have been worked to to the date
of foaling to foal successfully 1t is
safer, however, to diminish the work
gradually so that during the last few
weeks only the lightest kind of work is
done.
If pasture is available, the mare may
be turned out about two weeks before
foaling. If pasture is not available,
she should be given a good roomy box
stall. There need be no radical change
in the feed, except that the ration Of
the mare should be iightened shortly
before foaling and made more laxative.
For this purpose an addition of bran
and decrease of other grain feeds is
very satisfactory.
When the mare is again put to work
the foal may either be left in the stable
or allowed to follow. If left in the
stable, it will be necessary to return
the mare in the middle of the forenoon
and likewise In the afternoon for the
colt to suck. Never allow the foal to

LONDON, December 14.-The Arch

refused to sign an appeal addressed to
the Christian churches urging them
among other things seriously to keep
peace before their eyes in order that

The appeal has been signed by many
prominent divines including Bishop
Greer of New York and Bishop futile

that peace shall soon be restored, each

only peace to be desired is that found

the righteousness of his country's
