day Deputy Sheriff j. w. Evans ar
rested Dick Short for passing counterfeit
nickles. Short first attempted to pass
five OF the coins at A. ]. Clondenen's
store. Clendenen informed him that the
money was counterfeit, and advised
him not to try to passit. Deputy Sheriff
Evans then shadowed Short, who STAYED
about town all evening. Just before
night he succeeded in passing one of the
nickles at Jackson's candy store, whero-
upon Mr.. Evans made an afIidayit
against him. Short lives east OF town
two or three miles. by enquiry Il has
been ascertained that Short has an ac-
complice by the name of Paris, ON
Monday Deputy Evans arrested him also
and to dayDeputy United States Marshal
Wright, from Denison, convened Paris
to Sherman to be identified. A number
OF counterfeit nIcklos were put In clrcu

AUSTIN, Sept. Especial. 1t is said
that sworn aiiidavits are being prepared
to be sent to the Postmaster-G General re-
citing DeGress' conduct in leading n
negro mob last night to break up the
political meeting in the courthouse.
There was some talk to-day of having
the leaders of the mob arrested for ais
turbance of the peace but that
was probably abandoned. The Dispatch
TINS evening says: "After the outrage
last night by DeGress and his negro
mob the Dispatch, in common Justice TO

Fattening Poultry for Market.

No fowl over two years old should be
kept in the poultry yard, except for some
special reason. An extra good mother, or a
finely feathered bird that is desirable as a
breeder may be preserved until ten years old
with advantage, or at least, so long as it is
serviceable. But ordinary hens and cocks
should be fattened at the end of the second
year for market. Feeding for this purpose
may be begun now. When there is room
or shed that can be closed, the fowls NAV
be confined there. The floor should be
covered with two or three inches Of fine
sawdust, dry earth. sifted coal ashes, or
clean sand. The food should be given four
times day, and clean water should be al
WAYS before the fowls.
A dozen or more fowls may be put at
once in this apartment, so that there may
not be too many ready to sell at one time.
The hest food for rapid fattening. for pro-
ducing weli-favored flesh and rich Eat, is
buckwheat meal, mixed with sweet skim
med milk into thick mush. A teaspoon of
salt should be stirred in the food for dozen
fowls. Two weeks feeding is sufficient to
fatten the fowls, when they should be ship
ped for sale without delay, and another lot
put up for feeding. If the shed is kept
dark and cool, as 1t should be, the fowls
will fatten all the quicker for it.

While it is highly important that every
farmer should provide good food far HI,
horses and cattle. ye, it j, equally import
ant that they should be fed regularly. at
stated periods. Animals are good time
keepers and if the hour passes al which
they are commonly fed, they are apt 70
make their wants known. especially /, tins
the case of the COW. 1t is very bad prac
tice to feed her often and irregulariy. and
some farmers have an idea that almost
every time the barn is entered the cows
should be given hay or fodder. This is
mistake. The great object in view is TO keep
the cows quiet and eontented, which can be
readily accomplished, BY regular feeding,
and supplying all they can eat. If fed in
this manner in the morning, the COWS will
lie down and chew the eud and are not dis
posed to be annoyed BY the visits Of any
person. In the winter season, the second
feeding should be about , o'clock in the
afternoon, which will allow them TO have
from that time TO milking all they will eat,
and giving a feeding Of hay when the milk
ing is finished. The first stomach of the
COW should be empty, or almost so, before
more food is eaten. A COW chewing the
cud cannot be hungry. This regularity as
regards feeding should likewise apply to
watering and milking. This regular sys-
tenn of feeding applies as well to pigs and
sheep, when the latter are in winter
quarters. Animals can be as easily trained
as children, and every farmer who bears this
in mind will be amply rewarded by the fine
appearance of his stock, and the affection
which will be bestowed upon him by them.

Probably everybody knows the old-fash
Toned Shaker" or cider" apple sauce, as it
is called in New England, or apple butter"
as the southern housekeepers term it. II is
very nice for everyday use with meats, and
is especially good served with roast pork.
Many people like it at luncheon to eat with
cold meat or as preserve with soft ginger
bread or fresh doughnuts. Il is of rich
dark color, and the cider gives il "twang,"
as the old fashioned housekeepers used to
call it, that is very pleasant to the palate.
This is usually made in quite large quant-
ties, as it keeps we'll, and is one of the things
kettleful of cider down to two-thirds its
original quantity, and add TO that one-half
as much molasses, the best quality. Pare,
core and quarter juicy apples and put as much
into the sweetened cider as it will cover, and
boil them slowly, stirring often with fiat
stick when the apples ere tender, take
them out with perforated skinner, drain
ing them well put in second supply Of
apples, and let them cook till tender take
from the fire, and pour all together into
large crock cover and let it stand u hours;
then return to the kettle and boil down,
stirring all the while. until the syrup is
thick and brown in color. Keep in stone
jars in cool, dry place. L. should keep all
winter. Ify you do not wish to have the
trouble of boiling down the cider, you can
buy at the grocer's boiled cider that is about
the consistency of syrup, and you may use
this it is all ready to add the molasses. If
the cider is quite sweet, do not use more
than one-thrd as much molasses; if it is
quite acid, you may use one-half as much.
You must be as particular about the
molasses you use for this apple sauce as you
are about the sugar for preserving /; use the
best New Orleans molasses that is clear and
light brown in color, and avoid the heavy
black molasses Cider apple jelly is also
very nice, and is used with meats as a relish
1t often takes the place ofa apple sauce with
goose and roast pork. Cut good ripe apples
in quarters, put them in kettle and cover
them with sweet cider just from the press.
1t should, if possible, be used the day it is
made, or at any rate before it has worked at
all. Boil until the apples are we'll done,
and drain through sieve. Do not press
through, but merely let the juice come
through as il will without assistance.
Measure the liquor when it is drained out,
and to every pint of it allow pound Of
sugar. Boil from 20 minutes to half an
hour.
