first place it is more apt to be fertile,
is almost sure to hatch, and the chick,
though sinalIer than one Matched from
q large egg, seems to be harder. The
chick from a large egg is large at
Matching time and soft, requiring better
brooding conditions until It has hshrunk-
en-. However, everybody likes large
eggs, and If we can 1t is our place to.
supply this demand. T.,
We can in a measure increase the.
size Of the egg@by feeding. There is
no doubt that well fed hens having
balanced ratIons will lay larger eggs
than those fed on d meager allowance.
As the yolks Of eggs laid by normal
hens are about the same the increased
size of some may be attributed to a
larger quantity or albuu1nen, which is
added to the yolk as it passes down the
oviduct. This a1bumen is largely wa
ter and the iremainder practically all
protein. Then the ration should be rich.
In animal protein and mineral matter.
Meat and milk furnish both these sub
stances. Salt is an aid to increasing
the size OF the egg as it makes the
hens take more water. Then to get
large eggs we must feed literally Of
meat, milk, bone, green's and supply
plenty Of fresh water.
Some breeds and some strains Of the.
same breed Of fowls naturally lay
larger eggs than others, and it is pos
sible to materially affect the size of
the egg BY breeding, but It will be
found 9 tedious process. Simply select
ing large eggs for Matching will not
do 1t.

GOT HIS SPENDING MONEY"
reer Of the Late Comedian, Sol
Smith Russell.

When boy Sol Smith Russell, who
later rose to eminence as comedian
and to high material fortune through
a combination of large earnings and
ingenious frugality. was employed as
member of the celebrated Peak
Family OF Bell Ringers He was billed
as Master Solly. His turn" was bal
lad singing, and it was stipulated that
he was to receive no compensation
other than board and lodging until ex-
perience should make him more af.
firmatively valuable to the organiza'
ton.
When the second season was nearly
at an end Master Solly suddenly was
struck with an idea that he ought to
have some kind of remuneration for
his work, since he was featured" and
really the best drawing card Peak
could boast. So. plucking up courage,
he accosted Peak in these words:
MIR. Peak, ! have been with you
nearly two years and in all that time
you have paid me nothing for my
work. / don't ask for much. but you
can afford to give me a little spending
money every week-just enough to get
along on
Bill looked at him in sorrow, not to
say amazement. How much do you
want, Solly?" he managed to gasp.
''Oh. guess about five dollars q
week
The demand almost sent Peak into
commissions: but he rallied, and in a
tone of melancholy resignation. he
said:
Very well, Solly, | am your friend
! will give you the five dollars: but for
Gods sake don't tell my wife,
