Lost: A Barrel of Sermons.
A Minnesota clergyman has brought
a suit against a railroad company
which contains one feature of decided
interest to laymen as well as to his
brethren of the cloth. He seeks dam
ages for the loss of a barrel full of ser
mons in transit. The plaintiff recent
ly received a call to a church in an
other part of the country which, al
though no larger salary was offered,
he was induced to accept for two rea
sons: first, he had filled one pulpit
for 20 years and he feared his people
might be getting tired of him; sec
ond, he had preserved all his old ser
mons and would be able to read them
to his new congregation, thereby sav
ing much intellectual exertion. So
he agreed to go to the other field of
labor, packed up his goods, including
the precious barrel of sermons, and
departed. When his freight arrived
at his new home, the sermons were
missing. While no amount of money
will wholly compensate him for his
loss, he believes the railroad should
be made to pay for its carelessness.
England and Mohammedanism.
The only power which has been able
to preserve law and order in Moham
medan countries is England, whose
king is sovereign over more follow
ers of the prophet than even the sul
tan of Turkey. Egypt and India and
the Sudan are examples of what can
te accomplished by overwhelming
force. Germany would doubtless be
glad of the chance to show what it
could do in Asia Minor and Armenia
and Syria; but still more hopeful, be
cause more nearly possible, is the ex
pectation of an improvement to come
about as the result of strong repre
sentations to be made to the new
pemi-constitutlonal government of
Turkey. Brooklyn Standard Union.

Strength of Bone.
The efect of food on the strength
of bone in hogs has lately been dem
onstrated by experiments at the Ne
braska station, and it was shown that
there is a very marked increase In
the strength of bone when tankage or
ground bone is fed to pigs in addition
to corn. In determining the strength
of bones, the two principal bones In
each leg of each animal were removed
and broken in a machine. There were
four pigs fed in each lot, making the
figures given . the average of the
breaking of thirty-two bones In each
lot. The average breaking strength
per 100 pounds, live weight of hogs
after twenty-two weeks' feeding was
as follows: Lot 1, corn, 325 pounds;
lot 2, corn and shorts, 396 pounds;
lot 3, corn and skim milk, 509
pounds; lot 4, corn and tankage, 5S0
pounds; lot D, corn and ground bone
681 pounds. Weekly Witness.
Work the Hull.
Exercise the bull must have, for
unless he Is properly exerciser! lie will
not be thrifty and have a vigorous
constitution. This question Is a se
rious one, and the picture of Sir Ja
cob Poesh at work shows how a bull
may be made to exercise and also be
of gireat assistance to his owner. He
pumps all the water for a large dairy
cuts feed and makes himself very
useful to his owner.
His calves nil come strong and
thrifty since he began work, and, al
though he weighs a plump ton, he
handles himself like a kitten.
Exercise For the Bull.
Don't look upon the bull as an en
emy and carry a club or pitchfork
every time you go near him, writes
W. M. Kelly In Farm and Home. His
disposition toward you will be just
what you make it yourself. Treat
him kindly, but with firmness. He
is sure to remember any kindness,
and surer to remember any meanness
that you may do to him, and will
watch his chance to get even with
you.
Allow him but one service and then
lead him to his stall, and he will soon
learn what Is wanted of him, and will
readily take up with the program.
Well managed and properly fed, he
Will live to be eight or ten years old
and Set good calves. A well cared
for bull instead of being a nuisance
and disgrace will be an object of ad
miration and a credit to your herd
and farm.
Crude Oil For Mange nnd Lice.
Some experiments have been con
ducted under the direction of the Bu
reau of Animal Industry with a view
to ascertaining the value of crude oil
tor removing mange and lice from
eattle. Dipping was found very ef
fective, but some loss of animals fol
lowed, which was partly accounted
for by the late season at which they
were dipped. The experiment was
conducted in Colorado, and toward
the approach of winter. It was found
that the insects were not only effect
ively removed, but that the animals
carried the disinfectant with them,
and thus they were protected for
some time from any danger of rein
fection. In some instances where
the skin was scabby, the larger pro
portion of the hair came off, but soon
began to grow again.
By this remedy it is reasonable to
hope that this exceedingly trouble
some disease could be removed from
the Western ranges. It Is one of the
most disagreeable and costly diseases
that the prairie farmer must contend
with. The treatment of the dipped
animals, however, Is sometimes a lit
tle over harsh. It may be that it will
be found practicable to so dilute the
preparation that It can be used for
dipping without any danger and still
prove just as effective. It is safe to
assume, howeVer, that crude oil could
be used with great advantage by ap
plying It to animals in the farmers'
yards when these are affected. If ap
plied with a brush or sprayer, just
enough could be put on to effect the
desired results without using so much
as to cause the hair to fall out. This
would, of course, take 'some experi
ence to learn how to apply it, but the
fact that It seems to prove an effect
ive remedy should commend it to the
attention of our farmers in the East
and South, or any others whose stock
are afflicted with either mange or lice.

Anronns.
The Anconas were first brought to
public notice In the United States in
1886 by the late Francis A. Mortimer.
They were often termed a mottled
Minorca. With many that idea still
prevails, but they are not, nor have
they any approach to the Minorca in
size, nor color of shanks, skin, etc.
The Ancona belongs to the Leg
horn family, and would have been
rightly named "The Mottled Leg
born." The only resemblance the Ancona
can produce that would approach the
Minorca is the size of their eggs and
Immense production of the same. The
Ancona is in reality below the me
dium size of the average Leghorn.
They do, however, prove their ability
to lay large sized eggs in proportion
to tbe size of their"avoirdupois' than
any variety of Leghorn, or even the
Minorca itself. Anconas average
three and one-half to five pounds
each.
They are In color of skin and in
shape the same as the Leghorn, the
description of which the reader Is re
ferred to. In color the beak should
be yellow, the upper mandible being
striped with more or less black. Tbe
eyes are red. Comb and wattles red.
Ear lobes white, free as possible from
a creamy appearance. The shanks
and feet are generally mottled with
brownish to black colored spits, in
termixed with yellow. Clean yellow
shanks and' feet are preferable.
The plumage Is similar to that of
the Hnudan, being broken with black
and white or black feathers mottled
with white, or vice versa.
Feathers may also each be solU
white or black, in some sections. A
general effect of such coloring may be
realized by a careful examination of
the Illustration, No. 32, given here
with. In size the Ancona averages one
half pound lighter than the average
weights given for Leghorns.
The Ancona youngster is an inter
esting little fellow, with breasts and
body coloring intermixed with shades
of white and canary, while the top
of the head Is very dark, often black,
from which a dark stripe starts and
extends down Its neck and terminates
In a distinct black stripe running the
length of the back. The tip of the
wings Inclined to show some color
also. Shanks, yellow predominates,
but may he splashed with a darker
color. They breed very true, the
chicks all coming very nearly alike.
Ohio Poultry Farmer.
Turkeys For Egg Production.
That It is possible to develop a
breed of turkey hens that will lay
eggs from spring until Christmas is
the contention of W. N. Irwin, of the
United States Department of Arglcul
ture. He says that the only reason
this feature of the poultry Industry
ha3 not been developed is that farm
ers have paid no attention to It. "I
have been eating turkey eggs and tur
key for many years," says Mr. Irwin,
"and have found them better than
any other article of food. The thing
that started me looking Into tha pos
sibilities of the turkey was this liking
for the eggs. For several years I
have been hauntlfig the Central Mar
ket of Washington three times a week
and buying up turkey eggs. Most of
the farmers who bring them Into town
to sell for food save the eggs for me.
I have bought as many as 145 dozen
In a year. In the spring, of course, I
can not get the eggB, since they are
too valuable to sell for food. So I
have found that the eggs can be kept
very easily all winter. Experience
has shown me that turkey eggs kept
for that length of time by ordinary
means will poach nicely. An egg that
poaches is a good egg. 1 do not put
the eggs in cold storage, but keep
them cool and dry.
"I believe turkey eggs are as much
superior to ordinary hen's eggs as Is
turkey meat to that of chickens. It
took 200 years to get white Leghorns
to lay 200 eggs a year, and not many
of them come up to that standard
even now. I do not believe it will
take anywhere near that long to de
velop 200-egg turkeys, for there have
been many changes and advances
since experiments were begun with
Leghorns. Besides, I have found at
least one man near Washington who
has a 200-egg turkey, and dozens who
say they have birds that lay upward
of 100 eggs. Even a 100-egg bird
would be a distinct advantage.
"The time has passed when 'the
farmer can afford to raise turkeys
for one setting of eggs. s The rran
who told me he had a 200-egg tur
key hen killed his bird for the mar
ket. I told him he killed at least
$100, and he, of course, did not real
ize it at the time. One gentleman
told me tbe other day that he has two
turkey hens that have laid upward of
1(11 eggs this rtr and are still at it.
He can not get them to stop long
enough to fatten them for Thanks
giving. I told him not to think of
fattening them, for they are worth
vastly more to him for breeding pur
poses.
"At the least calculation a 200-
egg bird should bring $25. If a
farmer raises 100 such birds In a year
his gross income from them would
be $2500. Such a breed of turkeys
can be developed only by patient,
careful selection from year to year.
"This industry must be undertaken
with reasonable conservatism. I be
lieve the results are certain, but per
sons who go into the work must ex
pect to wait patiently for the prom
ised results. If a, farmer had from
fifty to 100 birds that laid upward of
100 eggs a year he would have no
trouble in getting his price for them.
It would not be necessary to wait un
til the birds get up to the 200-egg
class to make big money out of them
for their laying qualities.
"The Rhode Island experiment sta
tion has become interested in the
work. First they started with eggs
from birds that laid upward of 100,
but for some reason the experiment
failed. Now they are working with
some young birds. I would advise
any farmer who thinks of going Into
the work to start with young birds
from late broods."

Dr. Boyd, who Is the Inventor and
builder of the new English airship,
which has been making flights at

rector of one of the principal railroad
companies nnd other very wealthy
men are interesting themselves in
forming a private company with a cap

sterling ($1,250,000),' to operate the
patents which are being taken out in
connection with his airship.
Dr. Boyd hopes to begin daylight

A wide sale is therefore predicted for
the "Memoirs of Dan Rice," the
Clown of Our Daddies, written by
Maria Ward Brown, a book guar

most pungent Jokes, comic harangues,
caustic hits upon men and manners,
lectures, anecdotes, sketches of ad
venture, original songs and poetical
effusions; wise and witty, serious,
satirical, and sentimental sayings of
the sawdust arena of other days'.
These "Memoirs" also contain a series
of adventures and Incidents alternat

scenes and thrilling events; the rec
ord of half a century of a remarkable
life, In the course of which the sub

most of the national celebrities of the
day. The book abounds in anecdotes,
humorous and otherwise; and it af
fords a clearer view of the Inside
mysteries of show life than any ac
