FUR-COVERED CHICKENS.

CHAMPION NATURE FAKER.
x
    Rene Bache, the author, was talking, according to the Los Angeles Times, about nature fakers. “I know a nature faker,” said Mr. Bache, “who claims that a hen of his last month hatched, from a setting of 17 eggs, 17 chicks, that had, in lieu of feathers, fur. He claimed that these fur-coated chicks were proof of nature’s adaptation of all animals to their environment, the 17 eggs having been of the cold storage variety.”
