TROUBLESOME FOWLS.
Some schemes for the Reform of ChronIc
Setting Hens.

In the course of a general conversation
at a neighborly gathering held IN this city
last evening, chickens were mentioned
and a discussion on obstinate setting hens
followed. Some of the cures suggested
are worthy of mention.
Ducking was discarded as ancient aud
Intellectual, while the substitution of
Jumps of coal for eggs was branded as a
disreputatle imposition on confding but
persistent and over Jealous hens. q.
One good housewife had provided each
troublesome fowl with a handsome red
flannel overskirt, This was on the theory
that the vanity of the hen would over
come her sense of duty, and that she
would strut about the premises instead of
applying herself to incubation. The plan
had tailed, but the lady still had faith in
the scheme, consoling herself with the
belief that was due to the
somhre shade of red flannel used in con-
structlon of the garment.
A dutiful husband now aired his views
and related a humorous experience. He
had bound wooden splints on the legs of
two hens. Terrified and stif-legged they
had hurried away, while their owner
smiled with the satisfied air OF a great in
ventor. The fowls ''stilted" about for
some time, but the bandages worked
loose and they o returned to their re-
spective nests. This process for the re-
form of setting hens is an excellent one
and entirely successful, but requires the
expenditure Of a great amount of time
and delicate labor.
An equitable and humane plan OF cam
paign was submitted by a young Warried
man. who has read widely on the subject.
He thought the c%ulprits should be dealt
with honorably and Systematically. Fol-
instance give the hen a red card for every
egg added to the larder. Give a blue
card for five red ones, and let five blue
ones be a license to set. This scheme has
many good features, and will doubtless
come into general use when known to
poultrYmen.

REORGANIZED.
New Bylaws Adopted by the
StoCkgroWers.
The Members Awakening to the
Necessities of the Hour.
Appointment of a Territorial Ex-
cutiVe Committee.

The Stock Growers's Association fin
ished up the business for which the special
session was Called, and adjourned last
evening. The next meeting will be the
regular annual gathering April next.
At 2 o'clock VIM. Sturgis, Jr., for the
special committee on the revision of by
laws, submitted an amended code of rnles
for the government OF the association.
The report was disposed of Seridtm and
suggestions offered and alterations made
as the reading by sections proceeded.
There was not a little earnest discussion
on many points, but the best of feeling
prevailed throughout the exchange ofopin-
ions, expression of sentiments and rela-
ton OF practical experiences.
The changes in the bylaws were few in
number, and while not of vital moment
to the public at large are of the utmost
importance to cattle owners generally.
The formulating of a plan for the speedy
and certain collection Of dues and assess
ments was the subject of many brief ad-
uICS5S5 llOhl plOulluOuI mOLhpClo. II
prevailing sentiment seemed to be that
all moneys due the organization
should be paid with promptness, and that
for efficient service a small list of active
members in good standing vas preferable
to a lengthy roll including the names OF
numerous ~delinquents. The by laws as
perfected by the meeting were adopted,
subject to the action of the regular meet
ing next year.
At the session an assessment of cents
was levied on every head of stock owned
by members. Many settled at once, and
a number OF delinquents called for re-
ceipts for back dues. The association is
by no means dead, and realizing just now
more than ever before. its mission, pur-
poses and powers, the members will strive
to increase its usefulness by working
harmoniously and ~asslduously. Such an
organization must be maintained. and the
stock growers owe it to themselves to give
it their full support. True, its work has
been eliminated by the enactment of stat
utes. but that it is a downright necessity
is obvious.
For members of an executive board to
comprise three resident cattlegrowers OF
each county, the following appointments
were made:
Albany. H. Douglas william, E. S.
R. Boughton, R. Marsh.
Johnson-H. B. Iiams, Mr.. Clarke,
Matt Murphy.
Converse w. c. Irvine, ]. ii. Barron,
F. Wolcott.
Fremont-H. B. Hall, Jules Lamou-
roux, John David.
Sheridan-C. Ferris, 6. L. Smith, H.
L. Harding.
Crook-A. B. Clarke, Mr. Crawford,
Z. w. Whitcomb.
Committeeman tor Laramie, Carbon,
Uinta and Sweetwater will be designated
in the neal future.
Before adjournment the president was
authorized to appoint and provide with
credentials four association delegates to
the Stock Growers convention at Chicago
next week.
