George Z. Baer, Stephen A Caldwell, and
Samuel Shipley resigned, and Thomas
Doan, Henry g. Gibson, and A. A. Mcleod.
vice president ald general manager, were
elected to fill the vacancies. This was
wholly surprising, and II seems TO leave
President Corbin stronger than ever before
1t was NOT decided upon until late
Yesterday. This was not the plan
AZ first proposed, but those
who were first asked TO resign refused to do
so, it is said. and that made this change
necessary. as there is no method of forcing
designations, and as there was no desire to
20 TO extremes.
1t seems more likely than ever that the
fifth member of the voting trust will be
Henry e. Gibson. Dir. Corbin will con-
tiuue rs president despite all rum DTS to the
contrary.

The Government Decides to Extend II
for the Coming Season.
OTTAWA, ONT, April 9-The Canadian
cabinet has decided to extend the nlodus
Uireadi for the coming fishing season. The
amicable manner in which the fishery laws
of Canada were carried out last year, owing
to the general acceptance of the ,nodus
Uireitdi arrangement by the New England
fishermen and the prospect of an early re-
sumption of negotiations IN reference to a
settlement of the Atlantic fisheries dispute,
has induced the government TO take this
step. The announcement OF the extension
was made in the House of Commons this
morning.

HARTFORD, CONN, April 9.-The Hart
ford Carpet Company, whose mills at
Thompsonville employ 1000 operatives,
have been running on a winter schedule of
fifty-four hours per week. Yesterday
notices were posted that the mills will run
ON a sixty-hour schedule after April 81, but
instead of increased earnings the operatives
are to have their pay cut 3 per cent. under
the present figures. The company claim
that the depression in the carpet trade and
tho injury to business by the duty on carpet
woods necessitate the reduction.

PHILADELPHIA, April On o. Raiguel
q Co., paper dealers, against whom a num-
Der of suits have been entered during the
past few days in the courts, have made an
assignment to J. Warren Coulton. 1t is
understood that the liabilities of the firm
will amount to over 100000, although the
members of the firm claim that the assets
will fully cover all the Indebtedness. A
number of creditors who have confidence
in the firm have expressed their willingness
to allow it to continue business, although it
is doubtful if the offer will be accepted
The failure is attributed to the steadily de-

Testimony in Favor Of Ducks.

There are many advantages in raising
ducks, one Of which is that On small
place where you wish to have garden
very low fence will keep them inside of
their own lot. They grow quickly and
are first class table fowls, are less liable
to disease than chickens and will lay as
many eggs. If provided with good shell
ter and feed they will lay early in Feb
ruary and continue on regularly until
late in the spring or early summer.
When quite small they need attention,
but after the feathers make good start
they can be let run and, with the ex-
ception Of being fed and watered, they
will need but little care. They are re-
markedly good foragers, and if given
the run Of the orchard or grass lot will
pick up the greater part of their own liv
ing. They should have comfortable
quarters and plenty of water for drink,
but pond or running stream may be
dispensed with, as they will thrive quite
we'll without either. The Pelin is one
Of the best varieties, on account of its
size and color, and the feathers may be
picked during the summer. Ducks. how
ever, should not be picked during their
laying season.-Cor. New York World

Feeding Poultry.

From the Fancier Journal we produce
the following on feeding grain:
"The feeding Of grain, especially corn,
during the summers season is simply sup
plying the body with that which is not
required heat-and does more harm
than benefit The naturalinstinct OF the
fowl prompts it to forage and seek it's
food, by SO doing a variety is obtained,
the food is more evenly balanced and
larger proportion of the elements that
compose the egg are secured. When the
hens receive grain they will not forage,
and the lack of exercise allows them to
become over fat, in which condition they
will lay butfew eggs. 1t is more econom-
ical to omit feed in warm weather and
cOnduces to the health of the fowls. AS
insects seeds and tender herbage cOntri-
butte to the rat;ons of fowls, they can
secure more food than they can consume
on a moderate range"
The feeding of corn in summer, the
writer says, is supplying something we
do not need. In Florida we have eight
or nine months out of twelve that is sum-
mer, so we should withhold CORE. AS feed
[ will go little further and say that in
the three remaining months only give it
(corn) in the coolest days, and they will
not be many. In fact other grain is more
profitable for poultry feed at all times
than corn. You can get variety by
using what the market affords.

A New Method Of Treating Disease.
HOSPITAL REM EDlES.

What are they? There is a new de-
parture in the treatment OF disease. 1t
consists in the collection of the specifics
used by noted specialists of Europe and
America, and bringing them within the
reach of all. For instance the treatment
pursued by special physicians who treat
Indigestion, stomach and liver troubles
only, was obtained and prepared. The
treatment of other physicians, celebrated
for curing catarrh was procured, and so
on till these incompatible cures now in
clude disease of the lungs, kidneys, female
weakness, rheumatism and nervous Gebil-
ity.
This new method of zone remedy for
one disease" must appeal to the common
sense of all sufferers, many Of whom have
experienced the i'll effects, and thorough
ly realize the absurnity of the claims of
Patent Medicines which are guaranteed
to cure every i'll out of single bottle,
and the use of which, as stati tics prove,
has ruined more stomachs than alcohol.
A circular describing these new remedies
is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay
postage by Hospital Remedy Company
Toronto, Canada, sole proprietors. Re-
liable agents wanted.

Eggs will sometimes hatch tnat hive
been laid two months or longer, but it l.,
not best to set eggs that have been laid
more than fortnight. Fresh eggs, as
rule, hatch out more evenly and in good
time and produce strong and lively
chickens. Eggs that have been long laid
hatch later, and the chicks are often too
weak to break the shell. It is not a
good plan to keep u hen on her nest after
the chicks first Matched are ready to come
off for the possible chance of getting one
Or two more out of eggs yet unmatched,
for, if successful, the late Corners will be
at disadvantage with the others, and
are more likely to die than to be raised.
No, you cannot distinguish sex in eggs.

How to Destroy Lice.

Your answer to ga Reader Oh page
thirty, in a former issue, does not go
quite far enough, and right here hinges,
either way, the success or failure, more
often the latter, OF amateur chicken rails
ers. They see an article advising some
remedy for lice, roup, cholera, and all
other diseases that fowl flesh is heir to,
and the novice takes hold, perhaps, eau
tiOusly, and does not give enough, or on
the other hand goes in with the idea that
il little will do good lot will do more,
thereby, either not killing the lice, nor
curing the disease or else killing every
thing and the fowls in the bargain.
You say: eve use the process, dipping
the hens, head and all, right down into a
tub OF warm, strong soap suds." If that
is all you do your hen is still lousy
Why? Simply because the lice are next
to the skin. That is where find them,
and your soap suds, however strong, has
not reached their hiding places, and you
must reach every louise and nit, or else
your work is only half done, and perhaps
not that well. 70 prove what say, dip
hen, head and all, i'll q tub, and then
see how many dry dry feathers you can
find. Two-thirds OF the feathers on that
hen will be dry, consequently the lice are
undirturbed, and begin their depreda-
tions as soon as the hen dries Off. 1t re-
quiFes but hal a minute more to make q
good job ofyour work. take a tin stove

three gallons of warm water then shave
a cent bar of good soap in a quart of
soft water. Let this boil, stirring rad
idly, until the soap is all dissolved, add
One-fourth ounce of carbolic acid, then
pour this into the boiler, and am ready
for business. Dip the hen under, and out,
