Dallas Court Matters.

Special Telegram to the Statesman.
DALLAS, February THE jury in the
Grigsby-M May case returned verdict this
morning for the defendant. The defense
of three years statute of limitation was
sustained, and if the judgment is con-
firmed by the higher courts the
other claims of Grigsby will be
barred. The motion docket was
called to-day and the court refused to
grant new trial in the Mork and jump
cases, convicted for the murder of Speers.

found last night in the Trinity
swamps by a party of hun
tiers. He was wandering aimlessly
about the bottoms. He has been without
food and shelter since Monday and was
nearly exhausted from hunger and ex-
posure. Green is the man who was
injured in Fort Worth several months ago
by falling brick which struck his head
and dethroned his reason.

Pokln Duck and Young Chickens.

After your Pekin ducks are year old
you will need separate house and in
closure for them, as they are very de-
structive to young chickens, bouncing
down upon them and devouring them
when they get chance. The brakes are
not SO bad, but the female ducks evil
IDENTIFY regard young chickens as dainty
"bonne bouche," so afflrms a cores
pondent of Home and Farm, and adds:
They are also fond Of eating eggs, and
on this account it is not safe to leave
them in the hen house with other fowls,
as they seize on the fresh eggs and also
on the sitting eggs when the hens leave
the nests, This, at least, is my expert
ence, though it may not be the universal
custom of the tribe. They have a very
irregular, intermittent way of laying
Sometimes they will lay every day con-
secutively for three or four days, then
they will lay at intervals of two or three
days, then stop about two weeks and go
to laying again.

HOW TO KILL REEvEs.
Tho Operation Is Briefly But Graphical
Descrfbed


Described.
The following terse but practical d.
rections are given by The American
Agriculturist to farmers who have beeves
to kill: "An animal is best killed with a
rife ball, shot midway of a line drawn
from one eye to the opposite horn; but
it may be killed by blow on the same
spot with a sledge hammer or the head
Of an ak, first blindfolding the animal.
As soon as it falls cut a cash square
across the throat back Of the jaws, deep
lnough to reach to the spinal column.
The animal may be run up at once or
not until skinned, or it may lie until the
entrails are removed, as may be pre-
ferred. Cut the hide from the throat
along the brisket and central line of the
belly, between the thighs to the tail, and
from this cut along the inside Of the
legs Take off the fore legs at the knee
joints and the hind ones three inches
below the hook joints. If the animal is
on the ground remove the hide from the
upper side Of the carcass TO the back
bone; then turn the animal over and
skin the other side. If the animal is
hung up begin above and work down.
Be careful not to cut any gashes in the
hide. Use the thumbs wherever it is
practicable to do so.
To remove the entrails is not difficult.
Open along the middle of the belly and
brisket, cutting from in outward, run
ming the fingers along ahead of the
knife through the belly. The animal
should h"ve had nothing to eat for
twelve hours before it Is killed. Its en-
trails will not then be distended and the
carcass will cool better. AS soon as the
entrails are out, wash the inside thor
oughly with cold water, using a cloth
where necessary to take off blood.
Stretch the slit in the belly open by set
ting in short sticks to keep the carcass
open and facilitate cooling. AS soon as
the carcass has cooled, divide it in halves
by splitting the back bone, working
from the inside. First cut through the
flesh and then saw through the bone.
Do not cut bones-saw them.

two inch plank and by ripping may be

damaged Potatoes rs Cattle Food.

When potatoes are scabby. defective
and rot so badly as to be unfit for cook
ing, they are sometimes thrown to the
cows and pigs. Such potatoes, however,
should not be fed to mich cows, or in
deed to cattle Of any description. The
feeding value of raw potatoes is not
great at the best, and rotting ones are
far worse than none. Better throw them
away. 1t is not likely pigs would be in
juped by them, as they would only eat
the sound portions and leave the rotten
parts.
