IInternational Egg
Layind Competition
Arraintemente are beingamede to hold
egg -laying' contest, commencing Nov.
at, 1911, mut continuing for one year.
T.he contest is being financed by The
North Americen, of Philadelphia. -Steve
have been talom to enlist the serviees of
seine of the best equipped and most
eiteable men in the whole field of poul-
try huebandry to serve as an advieory
board, and acting in this c.apaeity, form -
'elate the rules and regulations under
which the competition is to be conduct -
ea, and have constant oversight of the
details of management. The advisory.
board consists of nine members, inelud-
ing men who have at heart the beat in
teats of thefancier and the utility
pountrymen. As now constituted the
membership is as follows:
Prof. j. 11. Stoneburn Stores Agricul-
tural College, Storrs, dorm.
Prof. Thomas F. McGraw, Interna-
tional Correrapondence School, &ran-
ters, Pa.
Dr, A, A. Brigham, South Dakota,
Scheel of Agriculture, Brookings, 8. D.
Dr, Prince T. Woods, managing edi-
tor American Poultry journal, Chicago,

.Dr. Nathan W. Sanborn, editor Amer -
(can Poultry Advocate, Syracuse, N, .Y.
Prof. F. C. Elford, Macdonald: College, -
Canada.
George A. McDevitt, The North Amer-
ican, Philadelphia, Pa.
F. V. L. Turner.
It is hoped that many Canadian pens
will be entered. There are a goodly
number of breeders .In Canada, who
have hens that know how to lay that
ought to be represented in this contest.
The climate in Connecticut is ideal, the
thermometer seldom goes much below
zero, little- STIONV and plenty of sunshine,
so that a good Canadian layer should do
just as well or better in the competition
surroundings, The houses are being con-
structed for the purpose and therefore
will be all new. There are to be 50
houses 12 x 12 feet, 6 -foot walls and
partially open fronts, with plenty of
windows. Eaeh house will be divided in-
to teen allowing two pens of five birds
each. This will give 14 square feet to a
bird. The rations will be whole grain
aria dry meal.
Liberal prizes will be given, also cups
and trophies of various kinds.

FISHING A LAKE FOR IRON.

eight inches with fragments of iron ore
of the size of peas. This lake ore con-

of iron, clay, sand and other impurities,
and yields pig iron of very good quality.
The ore is obtained by very primitive
methods. In winter a hole is eut in the

Neglect or unsuitable methods
may give rise to simple rashes

threaten to become permanent,
Not only is Cuticura Soap the

garden so dear to Gretchen. Traces of

has been supplanted by the Berliner,:
who has migrated from the banks ea the
Spree to the borders of the Jordan in
order to make his fortune. German is
spoken everywhere.

fatigue of the journey. Enthusiastic
guides show on the Mount of the Ascen-

CLOVER SEED
eporta from the Ontario red clover
dietreete thew that the prospeete for
tseed are extremely poor. Even in
the Lake Erie countiee, the dry wea.
ther during May and June ehorten-
ed the hay and pasture to elicit an
extent that numh of the eecond
growth will be used for fodder. Where
the first growth blosaomed well coa.
siderable seed 5 forming, which is
not usual. However, the clover
midge is taking some toll.
I believe the farmers of the Ottawa
Valley and St. Lawrence counties
would find it profitable to nee their
second growth clover for the !endue -
tion of seed. If it blooms well, the
harvest !should be good; if not, it
can be turned into hay ex, pasture.
It is easy to harvest clover eeed.
Mow it when the citrate' is tonsil from
dew or rain. After it has lain two
or three days in the swath to cure,
rake it up into good-sized bundles. It
should be damp with -dew when raked
in order to prevent shelling. It may
be housed in a week or ten days. In
December an ordinary threshing ma-
chine will t1ire4 it satisfactorily.
Put a herclwood board behind the
cylinder attached to the machine on
the left, Bring it to within a foot
or so of the other end of the cylinder,
then close up the front of the cy-
linder on the opposite end. This
etrifte the straw through the whole
length of the .eylinder. If plenty of
cancave surface is used and the first
row of teeth remOved to create a
draft, the seed will be very well hull-
ed by going through once.
If a Winchester Springs farmer can
grow 5t‘ bushels per acre on 4;a.
acrez, realizing over $55 per acre' for
seed:besides the value .of the first
out of hay, it will surely nay others,
to consider this crop. Very truly
yours,

Cheerful time of recreation,
Free from toil and tribulation,
Pull of life and animation,
When, with feelings of elation ,
We abandon our vocation,
And enjoy the sweet sensatkin.
Of entire relaxation:
When we quit, for illustration,
The old wearisome dietation
That we've had to satiation,
Lay aside all obligation,
In our daily situation,
Cease from harsh aelf-abnegation
And In some approved location
Yield us to the fascination,
Of complete and sweet stagnation

term our usual occupation
Per our sirnete delectation,
Seeking no one's approbation,
We incline to vegetation,

Following our inclination
Free from any molestation,
Baar from any habit:1110in

From the worry and vexation,

THE FLEA HOW TO KNOCK GIZZARDS OUT OF HIM
fileeta are wingless flies, and they are soppoeed W have lost - their
wings through long disuse, living as they do among the hair, wool or
clothing of other animals. Ae in all other flies, the month Is formed
for suckinee, end hits iio teeth. How "does a. flea, bite? The feet are
furnished with, long double claws, sharper than needles, and mounted
in such a way tie to be lust right for digging. When his fleaehip
eiree it feast he eelects a spot on the 'bare akin, site down on hie
hatioches like a dog digging for a rat, and deliberately burrow, a hole
into hie victim. Having penetrated to the vein, he drop e his proboscis
into the cavity and sucks up the precious blood, much after the fashion
of an elephant drinking from a trougli.
While digging, the elaws are manipulated so rapidly as to feel to the
victim like one continuouft push of a tooth.
Besides losing their winga their 'bodies have become flattened
transversely from living in close quarters, and they haee become pos-
sessed of exceedingly stiff brOstles or hairs, all pointing backward, so
that in struggling every movement pushes them forw-ard. That is why
it is mo difficult to catch them even w,hen there is no room for them to
lump. "When you put your finger on him., he isn't there."
When a house becomes inieeted with fleas the family dog or cat
sheuld be wasbed every other day with carbolic soap to hill the adult
flame, and if the animals are allowed to run about the house, they Will
in a few days attract all the fleas to themselves, where they can be de-
stroyed as above indicated. If dogs or coats are not available as trapa
gasoline should be applied after a thorough cleaning of the infested
quarters'. Pour the gasoline into cracks in the floor and along the
bazeboerds'.ete., taking care not to pour it near a fire. Gasoline will
kill both larvae and adults as soon as it touches them.
THE MOSQUITO -HOW TO FEED DEATH TO HIM.
In raiat barrels and stagnant pools may be seen the. lervac eommonly !mown
as "wrigglers." Eitel' wriggler comes to the surface every few minutes to
breathe, but instead of sticking its head out, it (diets it tail out of the water.
Thie is because riglit beside the tail there is a 'tube branching elf with a atm,
shaped openiag. That tube is the respiratory organ, and is tlic only pasea,ge
leeding into the trachea or lung tissue,
After a few days of life as a wriggler, the pupa is formed slid sinks to the
lantern of the pond or pool, but the growth ;going on within alters the epeolfie
gravity so that when ready for the change front chrysalis to winged life, the
pupa riees and floats on the top of the water, and has assumed euch a shape
that it will float right side up as a beet, and when the skixt cracks open along
the top and the young wings are exposed to view, the future mos:mite has a
Boating palsee in which to rest for a few hours -until the Wings are strong
enough for flight.
The mosquito is a fly, but it has longer legs, brighter eyes. a higher -keyed
voice, a. sense of hearing that can appreciate Sound of a higher pitch than men
can perceive, an extreme delicacy of feeling (as evidenced by its plumee for an-
tennae), and it is armed with a buzz saw, a ,file. a lance, a drill, a pump, and
other tools.
As wrigglers these insects are scavengers, keeping the water in which they
live pure and clean; but. as adult mosquitoes they are unmitigated nuisances,
rendering some parts of the world almost- uninhabitable. •
As stagnant water is their breeding place, the whole mesquite nuisance can
he abated by draining the ponds, but where this is impractieable THE BEST
REMEDY IS TO POUR KEROSEE ON THE WATER. Rain barrels should be
covered at night. It is only at night that eggs are deposited.
Where these pests' already exist, and mosquito netting prove inadequate,
ree the following mixture: Oil of pennyroyal, 1 part; Oil of Tar, 2 parts; Olive
or Cottonseed Oil, 2 parts.

THE MOTH AND HOW TO BEAT HIS GAME.
The modern housewife, finding herself outwitted by the moths, and her
wardrobe ruined, hath need of much fortitude and a new supply of benzine.
Early in the spring the moth changes from the chrysalis or pupa to
a winged creature, usually known as amiller-bo called from the white dust on
its wings. In May or June it, begins to lay its eggs.
Of course the whole objeet is to prevent the miller from laying its eggs
in the garment. Once deposited there they Neill hatch in due time, and the lar-
vae, or ivorine. which we call moths, begin their feast. To kill moth e in a car-
pet, set a hot 'flatiron on the spot infested. The use of strips of tar paper will
prevent the laying of eggs under the edge of the carpet.
The miller seems to know instinctively that the best place for its eggs is a
soiled spot in a woollen garment or a piece of fur. Thorough cleansing is half
the battle; packing away is the other half.
Of all the cleaners used, benzine is the best, and of all the odorous de-
terrents., tar paper (building felt) is the most effective and at the same time
cheap and convenient.
To clean furs use mahogany sawdust wet with benzine. Mahogany sae-
dhuest can usually be obtained at the drug Acmes. If not to be obtained, use
_
'clean, gritty sand heated as hot as convenient to handle. The heated particles
twill melt out the greasy dirt and the grit will cut out the dry dirt. Rub the
sand through the furs thoroughly and then beat out and air, but don't sun
m
For woollen garments, wash soiled Soiled spots with benzine, rubbing around
the edge of the spot thoroughly, so as not to leave a dark ring. Line a chest,
box or even a whole closet with tar paper, wrapping each pieee in brown paper
to keep from soiling. A day's airing in the fall will remove the smell of tar from
the garments. Tar is more effective than camphor, tobacco, moth balls, ete.

Whether horses were found in this

Cortez and the discovering Spaniards
brought horses front Spain. These they
called "barbs" front Barbary, whence the
spanish horses had originally been
brought by the Moors who rived so long
and !incuriously in southern Spain. The

steedants of these Spanish barbs and all

Those who underetana elindrem and

ise that once lessons -were done, and the
long summer holidays commenced, that
the little people were bound to get into

So play schools and open air schools
were started.
The Passmore Edwards Settiement, In
Bloomsbury, opened a play school.
At this school no less than a thousand
children attend every day -five hundred
In the morning and five hundred In the
afternoon.
The children are chosen from a great
number. of London schools, and ehe

three or four times during the hoiaday,
so many little ones get the chance of

Everybody but one. This lady, whose
