At 2:30 this afternoon Mr.. Wiley B.
Fouts of Wichita and Miss Eta B.
Harvey of 700 Exchange street were
united in marriage by Rev. w. II. Wei
ton of Laclede, Missouri, assisted by
Rev. Samuel Sargent of this city. The
spacious parlors were handsomely dec
GRATED with flowers and plants, and
under the bright gas light looked ex-
ceedingly brilliant. The ceremony was
performed with the bride and groom
standing underneath a horseshoe of
delicate flowers, suspended from an
arch of vines and flowers. After the
service the guests partook of a boun-
teous dinner.
Mr.. Fouts is connected with the Chi
cago Lumber company in Wichita and
has many friends wherever known.
The bride has resided in this city but a
short time, but has made many warm
friends here who wish her and her hus-
band a pleasant journey through life.
Rev. Welton is an old friend of the
family. Among those in attendance
from outside the city were the groom 8
mother from Wichita and Miss Emma
Stowe of Dallas, Texas. The presents
were numerous and very elegant.
The welded couple took the 4:10
train for Wichita, their future home.
The best wishes of THE NEWS are
extended to these happily welded
couples.

Feeding on the Ground,

1t is waste of feed of any kind to
give to stock upon the ground, and
especially any kind of grain. There is
always more or less loss that with good
management could very readily have
been avoided, and that would in a very
short time pay for the expense of provid-
ing suitable places for feeding. Even
the hogs ought to have a tight floor
upon which their corn can be fed, rather
than upon the ground. ough feed
given to cattle, sheep or horses, if fed
upon the ground, is certain to have more
or less of it trampled down and left.
Tight floors, upon which the grain fed
to hogs can be thrown, and feeding
troughs or boxes to feed grain to the
other kinds of stock, with racks or
managers for all kinds of feed, will pre-
vent such loss. If all the stock are kept
upon the farm that the feed raised will
keep in good, thrifty condition, it will
pay to feed SO as to avoid waste as much
as possible. And where a considerable
number of stock are kept, it will make
difference in the amount of feed we'll
worth saving.
1t is well to provide these early in the
fall. More or less stock will require to
be fed at almost any time now, and the
arrangements for feeding should be
made as soon as possible. Take little
time and plan to arrange conveniently.
1t will often make a considerable diff
ference in the time required to properly
feed and care for the stock, how the ar
rangements for feeding are made. A
due regard to the making and handling
of the manure should also be considered.
The making, saving and applying of all
the manure possible should always be
made an item, and in planning the feed
ing arrangements this should always be
considered. The feeding arrangements
need not be expensive; they should,
however, be convenient, strong aud
tight, so as to save time and feed. -

shipping Fruit to Market

There are three principal ways for
sending fruit to market, requiring cor
respondent treatment and packing.
First, by spring wagons to neighboring
towns or cities. Baskets are the best
and cheapest packages; and now that
they are made so cheaply by machinery,
it is hardly necessary to require of pur-
chaseIs the return of the baskets. They
are commonly of some use to the con-
sumers, who thus obtain them at the
low price by the thousand at which the
shipl ers buy them. If returned, they
are apt to be more or less soiled, and pur.
chasers prefer new and clean packages.
Secondly, shipping by express. Nearly
the same rules apply; and for all soft or
perishable fruit, as peaches, cherries,
Strawberries, raspberries and grapes,
baskets only should be employed-they
will naturally be lifted with the large
handle by the railway men and not
tumbled on their sides like boxes.
Square OF cubical boxes will be sure to
be pitched in upside down, in spite OF
any ''this side upn with which they are
distinctly marked.
Hard fruit like winter apples, or like
autumn or winter pears which are put up
a week or more before they soften, may
be packed in kegs, half barrels, and
barrels by the mode generally under
stood by fruit men; and if the freight
trains are known TO run directly TO their
destination or to make direct connec.
tions, these barrels and half barrels may
be sent in the third method, as freight,
much more cheaply than by express.
The importance of thus packing and
sending in kegs and barrels hard fruit
only, should be we'll understood by men
who put them up A single instance
will explain this importance. New
hands were employed to pack Bartlett
pears in half barrels, a week in advance
of the softening of the fruit. Care was
taken not to admit any bad specimens; :;
but among Others a very fine yellow pear
was so attractive that ''just this single
ripe onen was included The usual
pressure of about one inch was given,
and the contents were pronounced safe
and solid. But the jarring in transit
caused the surrounding hard pears to
indent the ripe one; this produced
rattling, and rafting made larger and
increasing dents; then the rest of the
pears began to rattle, aud by the time
the package reached the market the
whole contents were bruised, deiaced
and spoiled.
Shippers of fruit may be divided into
two classes-those who succeed, and
those who fail. The former, by good
cultivation, careful picking and honest
asserting, place none but the best fruit
in market, with their names on every
package. in few years their brand
becomes well known to consumers, who
are willing TO pay well, because they
know they are receiving their moneys
worth. The other class raise poor fruit,
put the worst in the centre of the pack
age, get rid of it at slow sale as they
can, and fail TO sell even at a low price
in future when they become known, for
both wholesale dealers and consumers
will TO avoid them. - Country Gentle

The Smiths OF ENGLAND

How many Smiths are there in Eng.
landY 1t is impossible to answer this
question with precision; but there are
data from which an approximately cor.
rect idea may be obtained. The Regis.
trar-General tells us that in 1856 it was
possible to estimate, from certain records
in his keeping, that there were then
living in England and Wales about
253, 600 Smiths, or one in every seventy
three persons composing the entire
population. Supposing that this estimate
was correct, and that the same proper
tion has since been maintained, the
statement may fairly be made that there
are now about S5S, Sl4, or over two-thrds
OF million, Smiths in England and
wales. 1t is not quite easy to realize Mt
once what an enormous number of people
those figures represent. A few simple
Illustrations may serve to make the
matter clearer. For instance, there are
more Smiths in England and Wales than
there are people in Dublin--indeed,
excluding London, there are only four
towns in the United Kingdom-viz.,
birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool and
Notwithstanding more people
than there are Smiths; while twenty six
out of the fifty-two counties in England
and Wales, or one-half, have fewer
people than the immortal house of smith
has representatives. 1t is on record. too,
that IN the seventeen years between and
including 1888 and 1855, 2S6, 037 Smiths
were reg stored as having been either
born or married or died. Although, as
every one knows, the Smiths form
numerically the strongest tribe in Eng
land, there being one Smith to every
seventy.three persons comprising the
population, still the .Ioneses run them
very close, indeed, there being one in
every seventy-six persons. Next in order
on the list, according to officially com.
piled statistics, come Messrs. Williams,
Taylor, Davis and Brown. Mr.. Rob II.
son, who is commonly associated with
Messrs. Brown and Jones, stands eleventh
on the list in respect of his relative
numerical strength. - ChamJers's Jour

Old English Bread Regulations.

During the reigns Of Henry III. and
Edward l., l2lG- 1907, certain laws were
passed in England regarding the weight
and price of bread. In the city of Lon
don, if the baker sold his bread himself,
by retail, he was particularly forbidden
to sell it in his house, or before his
house, or before the oven in which il
had been baked. He was only to sell it
in the "king's market, and such market
as was assigned to him, and nowhere
else. Bread was delivered from house
to house in London by regratresses or
female retailers. These dealers on pur-
chasing their stock from the baker were
allowed thirteen loaves to the dozen, the
extra loaf being the limit of their legiti-
mate profits. The baker was also for
hidden to sell the regratresses in his
shop, the sales having to take place at
his stall in the kings market."-De-
trOit Free Pres.

a successful grower of trees claims
never to fail to dispose of the black knot
finally, if it is cut off in an early stage
and turpentine applied.
Cut.worms are killed by digging them
from their hiding places; also by fall
plowing, which exposes them to the
action of frost and to the attack of
birds.
Wood pcckers are great enemies of the
borers; they never make mistake about
the place IN which to dig. Pity men do
not allow them the freedom of the
orchards.
The fowls and chicks should be fed
together. Feeding coops for the young
stock that are light and easily cleaned
out are indispensable articles about the
poultry yard.
Butter contracts during cold weather,
forcing the brine to the surface, and the
water, eyaporating, leaves the salt that
was in the brine in flakes on the out
side of the butter.
Don't go into the poultry business
from sudden fancy or impulse, but con-
slider well what you propose to do, and
plan particularly how you are going to
do it before you begin.
Dissolve pound of alum in three
quarts of water and put it in your white
wash; it will not only improve the white
wash, but it will kill vermin in the
poultry house when the whitewash shall
be applied.
Don't try to raise turkeys with chicken
hens unless you wish more trouble than
the young ones are worth. Let their
natural mother do the sitting, and keep
her cooped up two weeks after the
Matching.
Borers are cut from the bark with a
knife, or killed in their holes with a
sharpened wire. Better still, wash the
tree with strong solution of soap in
June or July, and kill the eggs before
any damage is done.
The evenings milk of cows is said TO
contain more solids than the mornings
milk. such being the case, it shows
that milk should not be mixed with that
of previous milking, and the food may
also cause variation in the solids.

Utility OF Practical Science.

''lt is astonishing how many little bits
of practical scientific knowledge a
youngster picks up when he is learning
his trade said workman in general
repair shop on Third avenue yesterday.
"For instance" he continued, ''most
people think the only way to make a
hole in glass is to break it or cut it with
diamond, but it isn't. There are two
or three ways of doing it. The neatest,
to my mind, is to warm the glass and
spread it over with wax. Cut the wax
down to the place where you want the
hole and drop little fuorio acid on the
glass with piece of wire. The acid will
eat through the glass, and you can shape
the hole afterward with a copper wire
and some rotten stone and oil.
'The handy man in a shop will make
many of his own tools. A whalebone
bow is often necessary in using a fine
saw, but many people don't know how
TO handle whalebone. If it is too stiff,
or unequally stiff, it can be scraped down
easily with bit of broken glass. These
bows usually have brass hooks at the
end, but you can make hook out Of the
whalebone itself by holding the end in
boiling oil short time, and bending it
around and holding it until it is cool.
Sometimes have had TO make holes
in steel that was too hard to cut or file
easily. Then / make mixture that will
eat the hole. l mix one ounce of sulphate
of copper, quarter of an ounce of alum,
half teaspoonful of powdered salt, a gill
of vinegar and twenty drops of nitric
acid. This will make the hole, or, if it
is washed off quicklyit it will give a beau
tiful frosted appearance to the metal. -
