We e previously discussed the worth the various breeds as egg pro ers, and, presuming That the read has 'already made such selection, next thing he should see to is that is prepared to batch and rear a I 3ly number of pullets which will :h the egg .aying maturity about -ember. This will require Leghorns e hatched from April 15 to June 1. in -the case of Plymouth Rocks other fowls of this type batches ald come from the middle of March; be 1st of May. pullets begin laying in August September they are very likely to t in November. with the result that a liable to stop and not begin in until the warm weather. On other hand, the much more fre at mistake of the farmer Is to :h the pullets out so late that the; I weather catches them immature they remain stunted and unglevel and never begin laying until the ion of high prices is past. be early hatched pullets should be t laying steadily from - November. 1 the following August. As to ether they are to be sold at this: or kept throughout the second r of laying there is considerable! ute among poultrymen. It has a very carefally figured out, how r, that hens lay during the second r about two-thirds as many eggs during their pullet year. It lsj th at least 75 cents to $1 to bring ulet to laying maturity. With a! d of 150 egg during the pullet: r we may expect 100 eggs from the during the second year. This loss ity eggs just about offsets the cost rasing an extra pullet to replace! one we would sell, so it is practi an even break as to whether pul should be sold at the end of teir laying year or kept throughoutl second season. The majority of tryen keep hens for laying the years. Climate. imate and soil are essential fac in egg production, but, of course, not be controlled by the poultry 2who Is once located. The chief] ense in egg production is the extra and food necessary in the winter ths. Likewise. in spite of all ef , the poorest results are obtained' :his season of the year; hence the antae of being in a climate and a goil where hens can run out s at all seasons of the year.

Splendid Sceme.= rood as where more care is taken with the hens In tinter. but as the expense s less the profits are probably just as ,reat. The other plan of winter hous ing and care for egg production In rolvd. the use of the scratching shed which is kept full of leaves, straw or >ther litter. into which the grain is frequently scattered so that the fowls ire kept busy exercising. The distinction should also be made iere between the Leghorns and heavy breeds. enforced exercise being much nore essential in the latter case. Hens that are kept shut indoors must be provided with something to occupy heir attention, for If standing around in a restless fashion they will fall into the egg eating, feather pulling ind ther obnoxious habits. In addI tion to grain In the litter, cabbages or split mangles may be fastened to the walls of the henhouse for the hens to )eck at. The whole attention and care >f the successful poultryman should e directed toward seeing that the ens are busy, contented and happy. here is a knack about this that is rery hard to describe In words. Feeding. The principle of feeding hens is not Wprticularly different from that of reeding young and growing chicks. Water, grit. meat, grain and green rood are the essentials. and if any one is neglected good results cannot be btaLned. A great deal has been writ Len and said in poultry papers and government bulletins about balanced rations. As a matter of fact, the effort :o balance the poultry rations by chem ical statistics is more or less a misap-: Alication of scientific knowledge. The oint is that hens have individual pref eences and will not consume their rood in the portions they are given md, what is more, will. If allowed to 'ollow their own individual Instincts, probably get the chemical elements they need better than if their owner ittempt to force so much food down lhem Li machine-like fashion. The custom of feeding hens by ex posing grain In hoppers has progressed rapidly within the last few years. rhis method simplifies the feeding prob tem very much and is applicable to all birds on range and Leghorns indoors. [t will not do. however, for heavy shut i fowls, as they will become lazy and oerfed. The foods exposed In the oppers should be whole grains. and it is best to have a separate division in oppers for each kind of grain; other wise the fowls in scratching for the grains they most like will waste the >ther kind of food. This Is especially moticeable when the so called dry mash or mixture of dry grains is fed in the hopper. I do not recommend ;round grains fed dry for laying hens. The feeding of a wet mash is one )f the simplest ways of giving vege tables or grain food to a large number )f hens quickly. The warm mash may lso have some stimulating effect upon =g production; at least It is used by a great many successful egg farmers. I Such wet mash made of clover, alfalfa leaves or any cooked vegetables mixed ap to a stiff mash with warm water. bran shorts and cornmeal is fed once day. The hour of feeding is immate-o rial, provided the hens have before tem at all times shelled corn and beef crap in hoppers. The provIsion of green food in egg rarmin~g is very Important both be :nuse green food is neessry to get lens in good laying condition and be ause one can ~materially cut down the expense of the grain and meat fbod bill by growing abundant forage crops ror poultry. If the colony pian of bouses is followed grain food should be provided by sowing a series of crops which in your locality will keep some hing green on the ground at all times ,f the year and moving the house bout so that the fowls may have resh pasturage. If the fowls are kept RHODE Is5LAND RED EEN. rarded this green food may be grown ilong the side and cut, pulled and; hrown over the fence. For summer md early fall use rape, which Is an excellent food, and there Is little la-1 bor attached to gathering a sufficient iantity for the lhens' dinner. Forj rinter and early spring pasturage rye! perhaps the best crop, though kale laned the previous spring and fed by athering the lowest leaves off the tock is excellent for condned hens. In the case of laying bens the fact umst not be forgotten that laying is te vital or reproductive function of be hen and that as such Is very close y related to the hen's nervous organ sim. With the finest of houses and! :he most perfectly balanced rations, if :e hens are not happy and contented tiey will not lay. Dogs and strange.rs bout the premises are known to have m detrimental effect upon the egg yield., mad careful poultrymen will not permit :heir hens to be frightened or worried a any manner. It Is in the cobserva ion of such points as these that dis tinguishes the true husbandnman from hose who fall as poultrymen. Killed by Fear.

When he was quite a young man the late Dr. Edward Everett Hale played a practical joke on some girls who were members of a party with whom he was mmmering on the Massachusetts coast. All these girls were reading the same exciting novel, and one day at dinner It was a leading topic. Knowing that none of them had finished it. Hale. un known to them, carried it away with him, the next morning when he went to the city. On the train be wrote an absurd conclusion to the novel. laying the final scene at the summer resort.

The Flying Dutchman was never known to get into port and was generally seen sailing under full canvas before a strong wind. The myth Is generally understood to have had its origin in the waterspout, which In the distance resembles a sailing vesseL Very Fortunate.

I A Chinaman, dying, left eleven sheep and three sons and, making a will, left one-half of his estate to his eldest boy, one-fourth to the next and I one-sixth to the third son. They wish ed to divide without killing a sheep, but could not see how to do it, so they sent for a wise man. Sending to his own fold for a sheep, he put it in with the eleven. Now take your half-six. said he to the eldest, and he did so; the second, take your fourth-three; the younger, take your sixth and be gone-two, and they all did so. when' the wise man drove his own shee% home. - \ Was the division according to the will?
