Marks of a Good Hen.
A good ben xhould have a small head,
bright eyes, tapering neck, full breast,
straight back, full, ovoidal-shaped body,
medium length of gray colored legs, broad
rump and red comb. Color of feathers is
of but little matter, but yellow-legged
fowls are said to have coarser flesh, though
yellow legs and skin look richer and sell
better than clay colored. A lat hen has
plump breast and rump, and fat under the
wings.— Ex.

placed under or over the seed pieces of
potatoes, a problem that, it would seem,
might well be woikcd upon" by the
stations. Thus fur the question is not
satisfactorily answered. The average in
favor of placing the fertilizer over the
seed as will be seen, is about ten bushels
to the acre. The experiment will be
continued.

Do you see the
Point?
"\ Well, if the man iu cur illustration
'V) J) J does nol see it. it ih uot because it is
CiA_ jr~ C not ocar hi* eve. Now we want to
ft i- y " ■'"/ • place a pointer b.' re your eye Tbe
1 vO" : 1 X / J holiday wr.-.in is fast appr* ru-hiop:
N -•—/ -4f '\t ' Christmas i- c iuitv, in tact it's a!-
} most hen. Already pi—wot .-ur-!
.prises are being 1 planned;
feV -m" whispered consultations are beinjr
jt jflHAk ive ap
' jj pearancc are being carefully stowed
y;. ML in out-of-tbe-v.ay places where they
w will be b d from pryinp eyes. A
f - z~i- Merry Christmas is an old,old theme,
V J yet always new. There is a gener
ation of little toddlers who this year for tbe first time will listen at some
losing mother's knee to wonderful talos of £anta Clans and other Christmas
lore more wonderful than all the splendors evokedjby Aladdin's lamp will be
just as potent as ever in convincing the Young America of to-day that the
holiday season is worth all the rest of the year pat together.
Do we hear an impatient Yes, yes, but having become a man I have
put away childish things? Wait a moment, reader. Does it not add dig
nity to the occasion to think that on Christmas morning a future president
will concentrate bis thoughts on a tin rattle with the same absorbed atten
tion that he will one day devote to his inaugural addreM?; that a coming
Secretary of our Treasury will grapple with his financial problem and
get an idea of the difficulties of specie resumpti- u by aitempting the im
possible feat of shaking that br ght new copper out of his toy bank, etc.
Then leaving tbe children, think of the pleasure derived from tbe exchange
of gifts among tbe youth, the middle aged and the old; how it strengthens
tbe ties of Irienship and delights tbe lovinir hearts of dear ones to receive a
proof of your fond remembrance and affi ctionate regard. Now we do not
wish to worry or perplex you, but as a pointer we would just say, What
ever else you may do between now and New Year be sure and see our
novelties before buying any gilts for your friends or relatives Mind you,
we don't say buy of us, we merely say see our attractions before you buy,
and we would ask as a favor of you to bring the children along. We hope
every little child in this vicinity will be allowed to visit our place daring tbe
next two weeks. In order to accommodate our many friends throughout
the county we will begin our great holiday distribution on Dec. 18th, and
continue until after the holidays. Come everybody and bring your friends
and children along.
Thanking you for your very liberal patronage duricg the past year I
wish you OLe and all a merry Christmes aud a happy and prosperous New-
Year.
