Friday Of last wsk, TAXI ng the Office in
Camden Station { Baltimore formerly
occupied by Mr.. dement's. One Of the
first things eslledb Manager Odell's at

Lexington asking bI night trains both
ways between LeIigton and Baltimore,
enabling passengei TO arrive in time for
break fast and TO have better mail
service. Mr.. Odell did he did not know
that the night trats as asked could be
given, but that teFould look into the
petitioners case with a view TO good
service. Let WoodSck people assist in
this movement to sure better passen-
ger and mail service 1t is really pro
voking if one mssesihe only passenger
train going each wayto be compelled to
take freight or wit until the next
day. There is suficnt trayel on this
road to support two pssengers each way
every day, and if it wild not pay at first
il would in the end. Better accommoda-
ton would secure a reater increase in
traffic. In regard TO te mails, the daily
papers arrive after the are "chessnuts"
everywhere off this lin A better pas
senR0r and mail servh is wanted, and
that at once.

A game Of base ball was played on the
commons last Saturday afternoon between
the Valley Stars and a nine composed OF
six members of the Climax club and three
other good players. The game was called
at few minutes after three by Umpire

bat and scored fye runs. The Climax
boys followed with three runs. Until
the sixth inning the Valley Stars were in
the lead, but by their bad throwing the
C.'s slipped up six runs. The inning
closed leaving the latter in the lead by
three runs This seemed to chill the
Stars as they only made two runs IN the
last three innings. Following il the

For The POULTRY DEPARTMENT.
Around the Poultry Yard.

Egg shells should never be given hens
unless they are broken up, as it will often
get them into the habit of eating their
eggs. But when fowls have unrestricted
range there is but little danger of them
acquiring this bad habit. 1t is the hen
that is confined in limited quarters that
gets into such bad habits usually.
A good way to break up broody hen
is to make coop out of plastering laths
about four feet long by two wide and
eighteen inches high. Have the top sides
and bottom of laths TX to 2inches apart.
Set the coop up from the ground by plac-
ing blocks under each corner, or boards
CAN be nailed to each corner, serving as
legs. Have the coop i'll shady place and
give the hens plenty OF food and water.
hen should never be starved unless she
is over fat. If well fed while in the coop,
they will commence lay ng sooner than if
fed sparingly.
The reason why SO many beginners in
the poultry business fail is because they
crowd too many hens into one flock or
yard. Forty or fifty hens in one flock is
enough. Ii you wish to keep more fowls
have more yards or colonize them into
separate aocks; where one has plenty of
range this can be easilydone. In five acre
orange grove four focks of fowls can be
easily kept by having house or coop in
each corner of the grove, or if divided up
into yards more birds can easily be
kept on the five acres. Adopt this plan
and your birds and your grove will both
thrive. C. G. p.
