It must measure about 128 cubic feet

can afford to burn wood in open 11 re

The Water Test for Egga.
A well known way of tontlng eggs Is
to put them In water and ace how they
float. The more the contents havo
shrunken the higher the egg rises. It Is
not generally conslderrd a very exact
method. Certain German experimenters
however, with tho national love for
exactness and detail, have figured out
a closer method of reckoning. Thus,
fresh oggs remain horizontal, an egg
three to five days old makes an angle
of twenty degrees with tho horizon;
one eight days gives an nngle over for-ty-flvo
degrees, and at tho end of four
teen days tho nnglo is sixty degrees.
One three months remains vertical, and
when It Is older still It floats. Hut even
In experienced hands, It Is hard to
see how tho water tost could Improve
on the results of the lamp tnslcr In
Its improved forms.

Improve the Waste Corners.
In many sections of this country,
especially In the Middle and Now Eng
land states, hardly a farm but has its
waste corners, strips or nooks which
for some reason cannot be readily
tilled. Usually these remain so from
year to yoar. The Idle corner remains
Just as the father or grandfather left
It. But Is this wisdom? Since land lias
become so much more valuable and
farms correspondingly Bmaller, should
not all the ground bo mado to produce
some crop of value. I think the fruit
tree will, In many cases, do this admir
ably. On this farm of only forty-four
acres there have boen found places for
nearly throe hundred trees during the
last two years, while more than that
number can still be planted to advant
age. And this farm Is not an exception
al one in this respect.
Along the fences adjoining public
roads good winter apples can b? very
profitably grown. Every forty feet of
such road should havo Its standard ap
ple tree. One or two summer or fall
apples, good to eat out of hand, would
be doing a little good In an Inexpensive
way. The fruit will be appreciated by
tho tired pedestrian and the boys. The
fruit from trees having eo much space
and sunlight Is nearly always of su
perior quality. It Is a little more
troublesome to gather ax account of
being scattered about so much, but as,
anldo from a little pruning and mulch
Ipg with course manure each year, it Is
produced without labor, one can afford
to spend a Utile extra time In the pick
ing. Cherries, peaches aud pears are also
grown on waste ground on a number
of farms. All seem to do well, especial
ly the peaches. As a rule, peaches do
best when given good cultivation, but
there, have been grown many fine ones
In the out of the way nooks. Judgment
should be used In planting trees to
have such as will best suit the market
for which they are designed and tha
picking of which will least Interfere
with other regular work. George En
ty, In New York Tribune Farmer,
Duck Culture en the Farm.
An Incubator may be very profitably
employed In batching ducks. As good
a hatch cannot be expected from the
duck eggs as from chicken eggs. For
some unexplained reason a Rood many
of the ducks die In the shell. Dot
enough of them get out to pay one well
for tho trouble of hatching. The little
duck Is very tender tho first day or two
of his existence. An old hen Is likely to
put Her foot on him and crush his Ufa
out; but no danger threatens him In
the wcll reRiilated Incubntor, where he
should spend the first twenty-four
hours of his life. The wnrm ntmosphrro
just suits bl in, and he seoins hnppy
and well contented. It Is aniRlng to
watch a number of 1 ho downy little fel
lows after they get dry and open their
mouths to yawn or for sinmithlng to
eal, I hr.idly know which. Then they
will st.retrh their long necks and try
to stnnd on their short, unsteady lejs.
Tho little duck nt this nrje may certain
ly boost of some beauty. It seems a pity
It so soon grows ugly, grnedy nnd
dirty. Hut there Is rlean money In them
If they aro Intelligently looked nfter.
Dread soaked In new milk Is an Ideal
food for them the first few days. Care
miiBt be used not to overfeed them In
tho start After the first week, corn
meal, ground oats and uran mixed to
gether makn It sloppy agrees with
them fine. I have nad them thrive on
corntnoal when given an occasional
feed of cooked meat scraps. It seems
thnt they do not reqnlro a variety of
food, Just so there 1b plenty of It They
must have grit; Httlo, Bharp gravel
will do, mixed with their food. Give
plenty of wnter to drink only.
It Is neither safe nor desirable lo al
low them to roam alt over the farm.
Tho Billy things get started down
stream or between two rows of corn
nnd Just keep on going If they meet
with no oliEtnn Inn. Tho chances are
you will not see them again. And If
they don't rim off they soon become
a nuisance around the house or barn.
They need tight, roomy coops to spend
their nlghls and stormy rinys In, and
Inst, but not leant, a lnrgo Int losure In
a partly Blinded grassy location. Wide
boards, or lino menh poultry netting
make the sort of fence needed for a
duck lot. Coops rhould be Inside the
lot so they may be run under shelter
when a storm threatens. Dampness,
cither overhead or under foot Is fatal
to them. During a rainy period dry
chnlf must be. put In their coops every
evening. They nestlo down In tho dry
chart hnppy and satisfied. They do not
teem to need a mother. When hatched
by a ben tho uwlutlful things won't
t!ny with hrr longer than a few days.

Feeding Gwlll to Cattle.
Tho gradual encroachment of fruit
tlllagei upon the acres of farmers
throughout certain portions of tho ten
trnl states Is now continually diminish
ing the arenH tined for grazing purposes
nnd the production of feed for animals.
Cattlo raising has continued a neces
sity In localities where the fruit Bea
con Is short, nnd recourse to dairy
products must bo had to provide rov
onno for the farms.
Tho profit In fruit growing Is un
nnRHtlonably larger in proportion to
acreage and Investment than hay and
grain farming, and owners In some sec
tions are so beset with tho temptation
to tnko the greatest possible advun
tap;e of tho situation that they have
yielded the major portion of their acres
to tho production of fruit crop, and
liavo In a majority of coses restricted
the more permanent resources of their
farms. Since cattle are a necessity nf
ter tho fruit Is marketed, there comes
tho perplexing problem of how to pro
vide siiITlcIcnt grass feed for their re
quirements. Numerous experiment hnve been
mado to discover a possible way out of
tho dilemma, and supply a substitute
for fodder In sufllclent quantities to
me:t all demands. Novel and interest
ing ns theso experiments have been,
they havo not all been without profit
able nnd satlnfuctory results. The
shredding machines havo contributed
largely to Increasing the utility of the
present scanty Biipply of corn fodder.
However, as this supply has neared ex
haustion, requirements were still to
be made upon other sources of supply.
Pulp from the factories making sugar
from beets has been utilized by some
feeding stables, usually being subject
ed to a systom of steam cooking before
being given to the animals. While this
substitute lias been found quite satis
factory among some farmers, it Is
largely in disfavor among others.
Perhaps one of the most efficient
means adopted to partially supply the
doflclency in feed has been the .recent
practice of some feeders to gather dry
bwIU in nearby suburban and adjacent
localities from time to time and feed
ing the same alternately with small
quantities of hay and shredded fodder,
It Is the sense of those experienced In
its use that care should be exercised In
collecting swill, that none may become
too old. This can be readily adjusted
by the frequency of visits to points of
collection of the supply. That which
cannot be secured from receptacle
where It Is kept separate from general
slops Is carefully drained of same upon
receipt, and ridded of all perceptible
Injurious substance.. The best results
from this feeding have come to those
who do not feed the swill until after It
has ben steam cooked. George H.
Shears, In Orange Judd Farmer. .

which could only be reached by
wagons, and by bringing them Into
communication with railroad stations
aro developing their bufclr.c-JS. Near
ly every state In New England can
now be crossed, north and south and
east and west, by electric cars and In
some cases cities as far apart as
Portland, Boston, Providence, Hart
ford and New York have been connect
ed by "the broomstick train." One of
the latest developments of tho system
Is the use for the first time by a
rtenm and a trolley road of the same
track. The New York Central is to
use a stretch of track near Oxford,
Maei.. about five miles from Worces
ter, for delivery of coal to. a section
It cannot now reach easily. This
track was laid and Is used by the
Worcester and Southbrldge street
railway. The fact that a locomotive
and freight cars can run upon rails
originally laid for trolley cars ia open
ing up a wide field of speculative pos
Abilities among railroad people.

tooled leather covers, says the Chica
go Inter-Ocean. Her crowning tri
umph, however, was a recent order
from the pope requesting her to bind
his own poenis and his favorite Latin
classics, all of which volumes are to
be deposited In the Vatican library.
