Our Debt of Honor,

People have forgotten the nature
of the service asked of and obtained
from their soldiers. Let the reader
think for moment what sacrifices
would be involved if he, now read
ing this magazine comfortably by
his winter freside, should feel it to
have become his duty to drop his
business wholly; to say goodbye to
wife and children, knowing the
grave risks that he never would see
them again upon earth; to leave his
pleasures and home comforts, don a
private soldiers uniform, submit to
rigorous physical discipline, march
10y night and day, be houseless in
rain and snow, often sleeping with
out shelter under pouring sky; to
live on the coarsest fare always, and
frequently have an insufficient sup
ply of that; to be posted as picket
by day and night in pestilential
swamps and bottom lands; to risk
the imminent peril of losing health
and accepting the tender mercies of
field hospital; to enter upon cam
paign, battle, skirmish; day after
day to see comrades drop down one
by one; to take the chances of
wounds by shell and bullet, of tor
ture in prison pen, and of death by
ony of these means--imagine all
this, and then say whether he woul ]
consider that his country had re.
deemed pledge of eternal graft.

The Independent thinks that Sena.

Republican candidacy for the Presi-
dency, and that, if nominated, he
would make the Republican party a
unit in his support.

walls, to remind exutant Democrats

the year before the last Presidential
election, gave, last year, a net Re,

Alabama has ten laily and thir-
teen weekly papers when favor
protection. Among the dailies are
some of the strongest papers in the
State, such as the Mobile Register,
the Montgomery Dispatch and the

not be without interest to Sena-
tor Morgan, whose reelection to the
Senate will be contested by Gov.
Seay, largely on the protection issue.

unnecessarily detained, when they were
needed elsewhere, has been so large that it
must have involved an appreciate addition

stock.

POULTRY MANAGEMENT.
Valuable Suggestions Furnished by n Noted
English Expert.

Valuable Suggestions Furnished by a Noted
English Expert.
Mr.. William III. Goodwin, a we'll
known contributor to English poultry
literature, in an address at Harg, En-
gland, on the keeping of poultry in re-
gard to essentials, held that proper
management was almost as important
as breeding. The essentials were
shelter, warmth and ventilation, not
more than sixty head being placed to-
gether. Nests should be placed on the
ground, with not more than eleven
eggs under each hen. A little flower
of sulphur should be scattered in the
straw of the nest to keep away insects.
Pip, or true gapes in chickens, could
be cured by amounting the heads and
necks of the chickens after Matching
with common vaseline, of which one
ounce would do hundred chickens.
He had reared thousands by using this
simple remedy, and had never known
it to fail. When ready for the coop,
the chickens should be given some
pulverized oyster shells, and after that
their food should consist of greats or
canary seed, alternated with soft
given small wheat and cracked Indian
corn, and then whole corn alone.
Buckwheat, oats, wheat and barley
should then be the food, and heavy
birds should not have Indian corn,
except in very cold weather, as
it interferes with their laying
properties. Fowls should have perfect
liberty and a sufficiency of clean water
in iron or earthenware (nOt zinc) yes
sells; and flower Of sulphur must not
be strewn in the laying nests for fear
of giving the eggs bad flavor. The
walls Of the fowl-house should be
washed with hot lime and a little car
bOlic acid, and the perches should be
treated twice year with mixture OF
paraffin and animal oil in order to kill
the insects that sometimes harbored
there. Peat moss was a good thing to
put under the roosts, and it would also
serve as a dust bath for the fowls. 1t
deOdorized the manure, and was also
valuable for potting purposes, whilst if
eggs were dropped on it during the
night they were seldom broken. The
1 perches should be about three feet six
/ inches, or four feet high, not too small,
whilst the bark should be stripped Off
| because it harbors insects.
Another important point to be at
] tended to was the provision of proper
amount of grit for the fowls. In the
bodies of eighteen fowls he had found
altogether pound of grit, including
bits of coal, glass, brick and broken
Hower-pots, and he supplied his own
fowls with pieces Of broken bricks and
stones broken up in a mortar mill. Ii
was calculated that the amount of grit
picked up by thirty-five OF forty fowls
in a year was about one hundred
weight.-FGrm. Field and Stockmdn.
