Eggs n Winter, and_ How to
anufacture Thera.
Oni all sides there is a complaint of a
scarcity f eggs. In the large cities ,the
price ha gone up to twenty cents per
dozen, ao d in many places it is impos-
sible to urchase them at ,any price.
On far ers' tables _they are seldom
found at this time of the year, as the
hens, for want of proper food and Ethel-,
ter,, have ceased laying, and no farmer
thinks of buying an egg, thoagh even at
winter pt ces this is not an expensive
artiole of . pod, as it is so nutritious. A
coripie of boiled eggs, coating five cents,
with a sli a or two of toast and a cull
of coffee, costing perhaps five cents
more, w114 make a breakfast fit for a
king, ar4 certainly nothing can be
cheaper ot more nutritious, unless it is

sional feed of lard or beef scraps, worth
a cent or two a pound, stimulates egg-
produelbion. Thesescraps are a substi-
tute for the insects which hens pick up
in large quantities in the summer. In
short, in order to make hens lay in win-
ter, when their eggs are worth double
what they are in the summer, we must
makotheir food and condition in the
former season as similar' as possible to
what it is in the latter. A warrin neat,

first conditions. It need not be expen-

But for our oivn. practice we have for
the last ,two years applied a much

constant toil of crossing themselves,

• The cilthedral and other churches

thousands who wished to participate in

women and men, bearing in place of

unusual influx of _worshippers. Near

one, showed flickering lights in the up-

hundreds of boatmen dropped on their

a -priest who had come down to blesss

night's double threat of disaster, could
almost be heard to say "amen."

Havana's First Earthquake
The Havana conespoudent of the
New York Herald telegraphs 4-tily 22.—
Last night, for the first time in the
recolleetion of living residents, Havana
was roused, by an earthquake that
made:her. .massive buildings shudder
like shanties in a storm. It lacked ten
minutes of eleven, when the theatres
were Closing and the cafes full,. when
park and parade were brilliant with
lights, equipages, beauty and music.'
The half 33:1411 shone from a zenith- of
steel blue claudless !sky. Suddenly a
sound was heard as of the rising of a
mighty wind through the pines, and
then an unmista,kable subterranean
moan, while the earth reeled with
unsteady siekening oscillations: Struck
with momentary alarrn, Cat swarms of
people in the parks 'paused and reeled
likewise. The horses hitched to a hun-
dred flying carriages stopped and braced
themselves in dumb affright. Restau-
rant tables rocked and spilled their
liquids, and men started up from their
chairs at the Louvre with dread.
Druggists' bottles were shaken from
their shelves, dainty pyramids of bar
glass tumbled to destruction. Senoras'
and Senoritas gazed aghast at the over-
tutn of their toilet stands.
Besides the crowds at the refresh -
meet places, Whole families rushed
from their homes into the streets, and
the stairways of some of the hotels
were crowded with guests, hurrying
blindly- down to the sidewalks. - A
place on. the ground or pavement seem-
ed_ preferable to most citizens who hud-
dled in groups .beyond the moonlit
shadows of the buildings they had de-
serted, and chatted of - bivouacking for
the night. Down in the bay, vessels
rocked &their anchorages and groaned
against the wharves, and - rusty ca,nuon
hreatened to fall from their pivots on
the ancient -fortifications of Cabana and
he Moro. _Hours passed ere the ap-
rehension caused by the shocks passed
away, and the city was once rciore
teeped in gentle -slumber.

• _ Too Much Water.
There is no doubt whatever that w
give too much water to our horses
great quantities of which Mercies
perspiration, relax 'dig bowels,. retar
digestion, and otherwise damage th
usefulness and longevity of the horse
The Rev. Mr. Balch, of Dubuque, Iowa
who has travelled over the Arabia
deserts, and who on his journey no
only used camels but horses, declare
that he rode a horse five days withou
water; at the end of which time the
horse did not appear to have noticed
what to Mr. Balch seemed a marvel
but was as fresh and frisky as on the
first day, and when water was offered
him did not consume a pailful. Mr.
Balch says that the camel does not, as
is supposed; supply himself with water
for a nine days journey, but on the
contrary, monster as he is in comparison
to the little Arab, he seldom drinks
more than the horse at the end of five
or six days abstinence. It is the cus-
tom in the East to journey for days
and days without providing more than
barley and a little straw for the horses
and_ camels : nor do the inhabita,nts
themselves eat or drink anything like
the quantity that, we do. Hence we are
red to the conchision that it is all non-
sense and worsethan nonsense to fill our
horses -a dozen times a day with water,
han.and grain. Like man a horse will
eat and drink until a habit is fornied to
require it every hour in the day. No
stomach is able to staud the strain of
digesting food, while performing the
severe labors of this country, as must
be done by those who eat four or five
tinaes a day. We are greatly surprised
that the managers of the larage street
car stables in American cities have not
learned that they are killing their
horses and wasting the money of the
corporation, as well as. those, who con-
tribute to their support, by giving them
too much water. A thing that is as
free as the air of heaven is seldom valu-
ed acoording to its worth. Se, in our
great cities where vvater costs no small
sum, it is used with a prodigality un-
known to the granger's horse, who can
have all he desires by bending his neck.
—After describing Mrs. President
Hayes's gorgeous New Year's costume,
a Washington letter -writer goes on to
say: "Rather different this regal fig-
ure from that Mrs. Hayes presented.
when she first came here with two
prim silks, one black and the other
Quaker gray, both severely simple in
style, which comprised her 'Sunday -go -
to -meeting.' "
