while the hen is laying which is en
closed in a very thin skin. On the ma
turing of the yolk this skin breaks, let
ting it drop into the mouth of a funnel
shaped duct, in length from fifteen to,
twenty inches, consisting of three di
visions, the termininus of each being
an elbow. The inner side of this canal
is very soft and pliable, being com
posed of folds lapping partially over
each other, the last division being very
much finer in texture than the others.
While passing through the first division
the length of which is five inches, the
j oik makes three distinct revolutions
and the white is put on in the same
number of layers. In the second, the
same length a3 the first, the yolk with
the white around it, gets its shape from
the rotary motion of its course; and
aiso the mejabrane which encloses it;
while in the third division the shell is
received, which is a thin fluid, in color
to suit the breed. At the turning cf
this division the duct is g'.ot-e shaped
and here the egg turns and comes out
big end or head first. The egg is fer
tilized by the influence of the mail bird
which passes through a small duct
along the spihe of the spine of the clus
ter of small ova. The yolk is suspen
ded in the center by two spiral cords
one end being attached to each end of
the yolk, the other end passing
through the white, being fastened to
the membrane lining of the shell. The
cords are laid "right and left handed,'
thus holding it with the heavy side
down, no matter in what position
the egg may be held or placed .
1 he chick is formed entirely from
white, and here we see the use of the
three revolutions in the first division.
The first layer forms the bone and
sinew, the second the flesh, the third
the skin and leathers. The first part
formed is the eyes, appearing as two
black specks, one at each side of the
suspending cord at the large end, next
the skull bone between, and in order
the neck, spine, legs and wings, at nine
days there is a complete circulation
and life, and at fourteen days the white
is all taken up. 1 he chords have now
made a connection in the stomach and
protrude from the naval in a number
of blood vessels and enclose the yolk
in a network of small ones, and through
these the chick draws its nourishment
from the yolk, transformed to its origi
nal substance, blood. After the shell
I, cracked, and the chick has gained
strengh, these two large blood vessels
draw into the belly what remains of
the yolk, the naval is closed, the course
is all clear, and having cracked the
shell all around, the little creature gets
its head against one end aud its tiny
feet against the other, the parts separate
and out rolls the chick. Nothing more
interesting can be imagined than close
ly observing the process of incubation
in its various stages, and the mind is
deeply impressed with the wisdom at d
power of the Great Being "Who doetli
all things well."
The Cmir.
We reply to inquiries of a corres
pondent concerning t he calf by publish
ing the following: The calf will
usually be able to stand and to secure
the milk which it needs without aid,
but, in case of weakness, it should be
held to the cow until it gets its food .
In any case the calf should be allowed
to stay with the cow for three or four
days and take as much milk as he
wants. The remainder of the milk
should be drawn 'by hand at least twice
a day. If the calf is designed for veal,
lie may, at the end of the time stated,
be tied with a strap around the neck.
At rooming and night he should have
access to the cow. Jf she does not
give all the milk the calf wants he may
be taught to eat a little meal If In
dian meal is given it should be cooked.
Oat meal may be fed either cooked or
raw. Some live stock owners prefer
oil meal. Only a small quantity should
be giviu at first, and the increase in
amount should be very gradual
If the calf is to be raised it should be
taken from the cow at the end of the
third or fourth day and tied in a stall
which is well out of her tight It
should be taught to drink, and, for
several weeks, should bare new and
warm milk. Then, as most farmers
consider this food altogether too ex
pensive for permanent use, the new
milk may be gradually diminished and
I he quantity kept good by the addition
of milk that lias been skimmed. After
iwhiie skimmed milk, which should
always be warmed when fed, with the
addition of little oatmeal may be used 1

Dairy DoU.
Prof. Whi'.cber, of the New Hamp
shire Experiment Station, says me
Dairy World, finds that the milk from
his herd costs an average of JTA cents
per quart on good feed. 1 he cow pro
duced it at a costoflo'J c-uts, while
the milk of the poorest cow cast 4.'
On a richer ration the cost from the
best cow was reduced to I J- cents,
while with the same cow fed on a poor,
innutritious ration the cost went up to
o 33 cents per quart.
In speaking of dairy produce for
England, the London News says:
Twenty-one million of pounds sterling
were paid last year to Centiuental
countries for dairy produce alone. The
butter and margarine imported
weighed over 2,0uO,'juu hundred weight
and the cheese nearly 2,rVJa Thete
immense quantities will probably con
tinue to be imported until inland
freight charges become reduced. At
present it is cheaper to send packages
to London from many parts of York
shire. There is no vagary so wild, no folly
so absurd concerning milk and butter
milk but that some crank is ready to
commend it and support his commen
dation by the authority of science, says
the Jersey Bulletin. The latest that we
have met with is the statement that
"most springs and wells are impregnate
with enough lime and sulphur to hurt
the keeping qualities of butter." At
nine-tenths of the water u.ced in butter
making in the United States is from
springs or wells, and it is rather late in
the century to begin talk about such
water imparing the keeping qualities
of the butter. The fellow who wrote
the quoted words has a case of water
on the brain.

A Single Ilutterfly.
A young man camping in the Sierras
discovered and captured a butterfly of
an unusual species. lie sent it to the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington
and received a check for 81,500, with
the request to make careful search for
other moths of the. same kind. It
was an individual of a fossil species,
supposed to be extinct, and great was
the excitement among scientists at the
discovery that one of the race had been
recently alive. Although diligent
search had been made by men paid for
the service no other specimen has been
found.
A Magnificent Carpet.
On view at the exhibition at the
Commercial Museum in Venna is a
large silk carpet, the property of the
imperial court, of considerable histori
cal aud artistic interest. The carpet, a
marvel of its kind, was presented to the
Emperor Charles VI. by Czar Peter the
the Great, and is a magnificent speci
men or old oriental carpet-weaving,
it is unequaied for the richness aud
purity of its colors, and the hues and
tints of its silken fleeces change kaleid-
oscopically according to the position in
wmcn it is exposed to the light. This
remarkable piece of tapestry represents
in brilliant colors a picture of the chase
at the Persian court, while the border
is adorned with strange representations
of feathered genii and flying dragons.

One familiar English word of ours
"hurrah" says Sarah Orne Jewett in
her interesting work on the Normans,
is said to date from Jfolfs reign.
"Hou," the Frenchman called our Hop-
and there was a law that if a man was
in danger himself or caught his enemy
ao ng any aamage he could raise the
cry, "Ha, Rou!" and so invoke justice
in Duke Rolfs name. At the sound of
the cry everybody was bound on the
instant to give chase to the offender
and whoever failed to resnond t(l til
cry of 'Ha Rou!" must pay a heavv
line to Rolf himself. Thus hear. ti.
old English fashion of "hue and cry,"
as well as our custom of ihnnt.in'o-
"Hurrah!" when we are nleased and t!

materially preju.bce the prospects o

made for the train, which I managed
to catch after a brief but exciting
chase. Then my 'gneV as the rail
road men call it, began.
"This train uou't stop at Beaufort,
young feller," said the conductor, m he
pocketed calmly on his rounds. I
would have l.ked to have asked him
what I was expecteeted to do about it
but his countenance was so hteru and
forbidding I did not dare.

to detect. The bre ikuian encouraged
me, however, an 1 as there appeared to
to be no other alu-rriatiw, when we
were nearly abna-it of the platform, 1
let go and dropped.
I did not light right away, but when
I did land the concussion was some
thing awful, and as 1 rolled over and
over it seemed to me I must have
gathered up about all the splinters
there were in the platform in different
portions of my anatomy. I was still
gorating when the last car whizzed by,
but 1 heard the "hind man's timely
warning:
"Look out, young man, you'll tear
your clothes!"
It was a reckety old station, the
wall frescoed with mashed tomatoes.
F.mpty chicken co'ip.i, fruit boxes,
berry chests and watermelon rinds
scattered about the platform exhaled a
faded and depressing odor, and the
ouly visible indication of life or death
were tne swarms of Hies buzzing
drowsily in the hot sunshine. I picked
my way to the ollice and presented my
credentials to the agent, a tail lank
man with a long neck, careworn
features, and a stiff hut that looked
out of place in the midst of such
rural surroundings. Ila was absorbed
in a newspaper, and it was some time
before he noticed me. At length,
however, he threw down the paiwr

myself at home. Then he unbosomed
himself.
"I'm sick and tired of this business.
"They're gone.
"Mop 'em."
"I say they've gone."
"retch 'em back."
"They're gone, is "
"Miut that key and go aul bring that
train bark for orders!"
1 closed the key and wandered aim
lessly out on the platform in the vague
hope of seeing the agent or that some
thing nii.ht happen. To my surprise I
saw that the freict.t had toped at
the other end of the yard, about three
(juaUrs of a miltj away. I could still
hear thedi-spatcher calling, and knew
by the vicious sound of the instruments
that he wai mad. Thoughts of colli
sions and the possibht ot being re-
fwonsible for a terr.h.e accui-nt riasnea
across my mind, and 1 started for that
train on a run. The distance was
greater than 1 had imagined, and I was
completely blowu when 1 came up with
it. The conductor was lying on his
buck under a car fixing something
about the air-brake. I managed t o
ga.p out that the traiu dispatcher
wanted hint for orders.
"Tell him to go plump to h 1!"
shouted the conductor, and then calmly
conlioned his labor. As there seemed
nothing else to be done 1 started back
to tho station to deliver the message,
anl had gone but a short distance when
the engine passed rne backing up to the
ollice. It was going too fast for me to
board it, so the conductor ami engineer
had been w aiting ten minutes or more
when I eventually reached the station.

he answered. "There's nothing for
