Another Find in the Upholstery

Last summer we took cretOnne
from the upholstery department and
transferred it in great quantities to
the dress goods counter; still on the
lookout for novelties, we discovered
this season. that the plain and striped
cotton and linen homespuns, intend
ed for summer cottage furnishings,
were charmingly suited to sports
suits and skirts, being especially
practical for those which require a
DIT harder wear than the ordinary
linen or silk garm ent will stand
These also have the natural crash
and linen grounds, and are striped in
the same tones, barring the softer
shades. The black and white COM
Dlnatlon is especially smart, and
there are bright green, purple or

bright shades which are so much in
favor for sports wear. This material

SOFT SHIELDED EGGS

The frequent laying of soft shelled
eggs occasions a considerable mar
ket loss to the poultryman each year.
The yolk of the egg is formed when
it breaks from the oyary and drops
into the oviduct; fertilization takes
place, probably within a few min
utes; in about three hours time the
albumen is formed The next sec
ton of the oviduct secretes the shell
membrane, requiring about three
hours. The egg is forced into the
shell gland where the lime of the
egg is deposited, and within II to
"a hours the egg is laid. Anything
having a tendency to make the egg
pass too rapidly through the lower
two-thirds of the oviduct would
cause the hen to lay soft shelled
eggs.
The first cause of soft shelled eggs
is that the bird is too fat. Instead
of the egg being controlled by llFn
muscles it merely slips through a
flabby mass without getting its shell
on. Birds should be made to scratch
hard in a clean dry straw litter for
grain and the ration should not be
overwhelming.
The second cause is lack Of lime
in the hens ration. Clam, oyster,
beach shell and grit help supply this.
The third cause is the forcing OF
hens for too frequent egg production.
A second yolk breaks off from the
oyary and drops into the oviduct and
the first one is forced too rapidly on
it's way for it to be completely
| formed when laid.
The fourth cause comes from
securing. that is, from feeding a too
Ioosening ration to the birds. The
ration should be properly regulated
