As soon as the chicks were from ten to twelve weeks old I sold theip for broilars. Chickens hatched in February, March and April will sell much higher than later chickens. I got for the whole lot 9426,60; t,.is f«*r a woman without any experience, and on a 8.nal! lot in town I consider pretty good. I now have another Incubator made and think I can make at least twice as much this year. I do not keep any hens, bitf j.iet buy eggs at the groceries for my Incubator. Any one can get directions for making an Incu bator like mine by sending ten cents in silver to Campbell & Co.. Zanesville, Ohio, I am; ure there are many in these bard times that would be glad to try such a business; it is pl-»asaut and pro fitable, I wish some of your readers would tell me whether New York is the best market to ship .to , so many tell me I could get much more for my poultry If I would ship it East.

The exhibition given by the pupils of (he public school la6t Thursday evening was every way creditable, as an entertainment, both to the teachers aud members of the school. From the smallest toddler to the young gentle man and lady, evidence of careful study was apparent. Some did • etter than other-. It Is true., but the genera' stan dard of excellence was so high ns to be worthy of much praise. But there was one very annoying drawback to the pleasure of the evening In the deport ment of the audience. With shame we confess that of all rough and disorderly audiences we ever got Into, the ar.di- •ijce at that exhibition was the <vorst behaved. We do not think any one meant to be mean or to show any dis respect to the you ig people who were trying their best to do honor to them selves and to the school and village they represented, but the straight and lamentable fact is that the performers were insulted and embarrassed by loud talking, ah-ah-ltig, whistles, gioans and many other diabolical methods of disturbance. We saw, with profound astonishment, men, and women too, who ought to kuow better, and whose standing in society wf uld lead us to expect better things of, joiuing in the disturbance. It was too bad and the thoughtless display of bufloonery was really a disgrace to Richmond, We kuow we are saying hard things, but the facts justify them. There was Miss Bisby, a young lady of Englewood, one of the finest, yes the finest elocutionist of her age that^we ever listened to- She had been accustomed to recite be fore refined and intelligent audiences in Chicago and elsewhere. She favored the audience with two selections and in the midst of one of the most beauti ful and pathetic passages, a party who would feel insulted to be ranked below the "ereme de la crcme" of Richmond society, ali-ahe.l the beautiful and ac complished young lady, who was giv ing one of the finest Impersonation any one ever listened to. What will she. or any other stranger who might have been present, think of Richmond intel ligence, refinement or good breeding? Honestly, we never felt so humiliated for the town as wc did that night. We will not accuse any ono of anything worse In intent than mete thoughtless ness. But for IIeaven'8 6ak<\ citizens, think back and consi^r hjaw M ail looked and sounded!
