Ul Value for Egg Production for Family Use, of Agriculture.) The Bantam breeds gained their popularity as ornamental fowl and as | playthings for children and grown-ups, but, says the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture, they have also a distinct utility value for egg pro- duction for family use, There is also a good demand for eggs for hatching jand for breeding stock of good qual | ity. Because of their small size these pigmy breeds often have the advantage over larger fowls where only a very small space is available for the flock. They are easy for children to handle, and the ownership of a few Bantams often ts the beginning of a real interest in poultry raising. The various breeds of Bantams, their characteristics, and methods of man- agement are discussed in Farmers’ Bulletin 1251, The Bantam Breeds and Varieties, the fifth of a series on Standard Varieties of Chickens, The various breeds, says the bulletin, have | not been raised with the idea of egg | production and, as a result, the aver. | age is not very high, probably around | 175 eggs In a yeer. The eggs vary in size, | breeds, ranging from 12 ounces a doz en to 18 or 20 ounces. The color of the eggs’ runs from white to dark Some of the breeds have a tendency to lay for a fairly long peri- od, but the Brahmas, Cochins aud Silkies are apt to be broody. Since many enn kinds have been de- White Cochin Bantam. veloped from the larger standard breeds they have many of the same characteristics, Reports collected from Bantam breeders show that the average hen will eat from 25 to 35 pounds of feed in a year, which is about one-half as much as a ben of the Mediterranean breeds or one-third as much as a hen of the larger breeds would eat. A copy of the bulletin may be ob- tained free by addressing the Depart- ment of Agriculture at Washington, D.C. FIND HIDDEN TURKEY NESTS | When Confined ia Pen Until Late in Day, Laying Hen Will Go Straight to Her Eggs. A quick and easy way to find stolen | nests of turkeys is to confine the birds from early morning to late after noon, The laying hens will then go | straight to their nests to lay the eggs | whieh they are holding, say poultry specialists of the United States De- partment of Agriculture. usually in obscure places and often wander a half mile or more from home before they find a nesting place that suits them. If attractive nesting places are pre- | pared about the barnyard, the turkeys | Such nests | sometimes lay in them. are easily made from boxes or bar- rels, or by scooping out a little earth in the shape of a shallow bowl, piling brush round it to satisfy the hen's de- sire for seclusion, The nest most pre ferred by turkeys consists of a barrel laid on its side, in which straw or hay is placed. When confined in a breed ing pen several turkey hens may lay in the same nest, but on free range each bird usually makes ber own nest Turkeys do not range far during cold weather. In the north, where the laying season often begins when there | is still snow on the ground, the hens are more likely to select their nests | Bear home. LEAKY POULTRY HOUSE ROOF More Annoyance From Damp Quarters in Spring Than in Winter on Ac- count of Rain. There is usually more annoyance from leaky poultry house roofs in the spring than in the winter, because more rain occurs. Also, in winter, ice and snow may remain for weeks on a roof without melting, and really assist to protect against the winds; but in | spring uny leaky places will be open | ings for beating rains. Roofs should be repaired at once, if there are any cracks or leaks at all or the result will be damp quarters and the flock will probably be ravaged by colds and +o ee rs as do the different Bantam | When tur- | key hens have free range they nest | HAS MADE APPEAL TO POETS Legend of Pygmation and Galatea Af. forded Inspiration to Ancient and | Mduern Men of Letters, { The story of Pygmalion end Galatea forms one of the prettiest | myths in classical mythology—a ro- | manee which has given inspiration | to more than one poet.

This was done; the statue be- | came a beautiful woman whom Pyg- | malion married, . . W.8. Gil- bert’s play, “Pygmalion and Gala- tea,” is founded on this story. Pha- phos, the daughter, or Cinyras, the granddaughter, of Pygmalion and the statue is supposed to have been the founder of the city of Papos in Cyprus. There is said to be no an- cient or classical authority for eall- ing the living statue “Galatea.” An- drew Lang was the author of a poem | called “The New Pygmalion” and | William Morris wrote about “Pyg- | malion and the Image,” in the “Earthly Paradise.”—Chicags Jour- nal, | AWARDED FAME 1S DESERVED Interesting Story of How Goat Be- came the Trade-Mark of Great Northern Railroad. | The painted goat which appears on the box cars of the Great North- ern railroad as the trade-mark of the line, had its original in an actual “billy,” who drew a small cart for a newsboy in Minneapolis many years ago. The newsboy was William Ken- ney, who afterward climbed high in the railroad business. He ultimate- ly sold his goat to a rancher living near Midvale, Mont., who wished to cross the long-whiskered domestic goat with the wild Rocky mountain variety. Years later, Kenney, then a suce cessful railroad man, visited Mid- vale in company with James J. Hill, and saw the descendants of the goats raised by the rancher, who was now dead. Finding one which was the very counterpart of the animal which had pulled his news cart in Minneapolis, Kenney remarked to Mr. Hill: “There is the grandson of my old billy goat,” “He shall be our trade-mark,” said the empire builder; “no other animal in these meouttaine Sennrnge | such a remembrance.” SOME | NIFTY SHOOTING “Shooting o the rifle range is all right,” said the old timer to an in- terested group in the bunkhouse, “but for plain or fancy shooting | give me the method we used to prac- tice out in the Philippines.” “Out there,” he explained, “the captain used to roll an empty beer | barrel down a hill, and every time the bunghole turned up we put a bullet in it. Any man who couldn’t do it wae up for @ shoot.” “T’ll bet there was a gang up for office hours every morning,” piped the marine with the marksman’s badge. “Nope,” said the old-timer, “I wae | out there for four years and I never | Saw @ man on report.” | | ee een — IRON SAVES DOCUMENTS | | In Phoenix, Ariz., where they | have flood rains at times, a violent storm caused water to enter the | basement of the state capitol and | soak all the valuable records stored | there.
