spring sunshine. Behind one of these
clumps l took up my position, so as

was clad in dark suit, and I saw that
he had a black beard. On reaching
the end of the Charlington grounds, he
sprang from his machine and led it
through gap in the hedge, disappear
ing from my view.
A quarter of an hour passed, and
then second cyclist appeared. This
time it was the young lady coming
from the station. l saw her look about
her as she came to the Charlington
hedge. An instant later the man
emerged from his hiding place, sprang
upon his cycle, and followed her. In
all the broad landscape those were the
only moving figures, the graceful girl
sitting very straight upon her machine
and the man behind her bending low
over his handle-bar with a curiosly
furtive suggestion in every movement
She looked back at him and slowed
her pace. He slowed also. She stopped

hundred yards behind her. Her next
movement was as unexpected as il

Presently she came back up the road

UNUSUAL EXHIBIT OF BUTTER
PACKAGES AT NAT. DAIR YSHOW,

For the same reason that a man pre-
fers to eat his meals from clean ia
blecloth he prefers to get the butter
he eats in a clan an dattractive pack
age-it helps him to get more enjoy
ment from his food an dthat means he
really gets more value out of 1t, even
though carelessly packed products
may contain just ,as much food value
as those that are put up carefully.
The package into which butter is put
is Of more importance than most food
packages, because the product which
it holds is extremely sensitive to out
side influences, especially odors. Men
who have made business of studying
market conditions and methods have
long given attention to the package
problem an dthey are still at it. This
year at the National Dairy Show to be
held in st. Paul, Mimi, October s to Is.
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture will have an unusual show of
butter packages that will probably
prove of as much interest as a lot of
curios. The department has collected
packages from the various countries
of the world that make butter in con-
siderable quantities, and they will be
shown in comparison with packages
that are used in our own country. In
addition there will be samples of good
and of poor packing.

HENS FOR BREEDING

flock the next important thing for
poultry raisers OF the state 10 do In
order TO increase tho profits from their
flocks II TO select the ehns that are
to be kept for breeders, poultry spec
ialists say. This Is the logical time OF
the year TO select the breeders, accord
ing TO ]. r. Smyth, field agent In poul-
Try from the College Of Agriculture,
since II is possible to distinguish them
now by following the culling method
whereas In the spring all birds in the
flock will look alike. The hens that
are laying now are the ones to keep
as breeders because experience has
shown that they are the heavy layers,
the specialists say.
1t is important that the hens to be
used as breeders have large capacity
which is indicated by broad back and
deep body together with high vitality
which is indicated by the conformation
Of the birds. The back of the desirable
breeder should carry its width back to
the tail while the depth of the body
measured between the ends of the
brest and plevic bones should be at
least the width of four fingers when
the hen is in laying condition.
General indications of high vitality
in hens are broad, deep head; bright,
prominent eye, long, deep body; strong
parallel legs; stylish carriage and an
active disposition, These are the
points to look for in picking out the
birds. that are to be kept for breeders,
the specialists say. Details of the Gull
ing method which also may be used in
picking on the birds that are to be
eliminated from the breeing flock are
