HEFATAL EXCURSION.
One Man Killed and
Another Wounded.

The special train which passed
through here yesterday morning
from Louisville to Lexington had on
board a large crowd of negroes
bound for the Colored Fair at Lex
ington. When the train reached
Eminence Marshal Alex. @. Scott, of
that place, boarded the train with
warrant for negro thought to be
on board. He arrested a man he
supposed to be the one wanted. when
another negro interfered to prevent
the officer taking his man, and at
tempted to draw pistol upon him.
but Scott was to quick for him and
got the drop. Upon investigation
Scott found he had made a mistake
in arresting the first man, so he let
him go, but held on to the one who
had the pistol, took him off here and
returned with him to Eminence on
train No. II, which leaves at $3.50.
When the special train reached
Jetts Station some Louisville negroes
got into fuss with some of those
from Shelby county, who had gotten
on at Bagdad, pistols were produced
and used promiscuously. A negro
by the name of Charley McFali,
from Bagdad, who was not in the
row, was shot twice in the forehead
and killed and another, who Sc name
we did not learn, was wounded. The
negro who did the shooting jumped
from the train and made his escape.
The authorities here were notified
and City Marshal Williams and
officers Brown went out to look for
him. They arrested one Charles
Smith, who claims to be from Louis
vile, brought him to this city and
placed him in Jail.
Several other negroes who had got
ten off the train when it stopped at
the Station, to shoot craps, in at
tempting to get on after the train
was in motion, fell and were struck
by the trucks and steps, and were
badly hurt.

Hard and Soft Food.

Experience shows that hard food Is
better than soft food for poultry, not
that it contains more nutrition, but
for the reason that when soft food is
given the hens are tempted to eat a
a larger proportion than should be
the case. Thegivingof soft food leads
to overlooking and impairs the diges-
ton. 1t also supplies the wants of
the fowl more readily than hard food,
and SO completely satisfies it that the
inducement to work and scratch-so
essential to health and the thrift of
the fowls lessened. There is the
fact that when giving soft food the
poultryman, by mixing several kinds,
is likely to give more of one kind than
may be needed, while with hard grains
the fowls have a greater privilege of
selection of that which they prefer;
but with mixed soft food, they must
eat everything OF which it is composed
all or none-and thereby surfeit
themselves. It is proper to give soft
food, so as to feed some needed SUBJ
stances, but we believe three times q
week sufficient. Give whole grain and
scatter it far and wide, or mix it with
q litter, thus compelling each hen to
hunt and scratch for all she receives,
which will keep her in health and pro-
mote egg production.-Farma and Fire

The Better Wav.

A little boy who was the owner OF
rather smart little trap, with pony and
cart, was much annoyed by "Mordecal at
at the gate, " in the shape of small ragged
urchin, whose-shanty he had to pass daily
on his way to the village, and who jeered at
him with the vesatile a nd cunning tongue
of born gamin. The owner of the little
turnout was simply made miserable by the
persecution, especially as it afforded great
delight to number of the smaller roughs
of the neighborhood Il would thrash
him." said the child to his mother ''but l
am afraid Jack (the pony would run
away" Il will tell you much better
way" suggested the mother, and after some
persuasion. she induced the boy 10 try her
plan. The next morning. as usual, the en-
envy was waiting for his victim "Hi!' be-
gan the urchin; Il s'pose you, think that
things hoss!" No, said the little boy,
with nod and bright little smile, but
he is a very good pony; won't you get in
and try him?" The small rough came up
and patted the little animal. HE is nice
little feller." he admitted in a shamefaced
way; and IN second the boys were bowl
ing together merrily down the road, and
the ieud was over forever.

Farm Notes.

Are your stables clean? If not, for
the sake of those who drink milk,
clean them.
In selecting vegetables for the use of
the family the garden should contain
those OF the best quality in preference
to size or quantity.
Some clay lands are so stiff that the
water cannot go down. Such lands
are benefited by deep ploughing, sub
soiling and tile drainage.
Economy in feeding means provid-
ing the COWS with a generous allow
ance of the food that will produce the
most returns.
Don't leave tools of any kind lying
out in the weather. Have place for
everything and have everything in it's
place.
Give your floral plants sufficient
water, but not too much. If the water
be about the same temperature as the
air, it will be better than having it
either too warm or too cold
Experiments made by German Off
Gals have demonstrated that a horse
shoe made of layers Of parchment pa
per, cemented and pressed together in
hydraulic press, is much more dur
able than an iron shoe.
Halter-training cattleshould be done
while they are calves; it is easy then,
a few lessons will do it, and these les
sons are never forgotten. It is far
better than "breaking'' them while
older.

THE FARM AND FIELD.
INTERESTING MATTERS FOR OUR
RURAL READERS.
Farmyard Manure--Dairy Advan-
Feeding.
Farmyard Manure.

It is evident that farm or animal
manure must be the principal depend
encefor keeping up fertility of the soil.
The use of commercial fertilizers and
green crops, as aids, is often advan-
tageous, but they should not be relied
upon exclusively. 1t is an item of
considerable Importance to make,
save, and apply all the manure posi-
BILE; but at the same time it is also an
item to do the work as economically
aspossible.
The soluble parts OF the manure are
much the more valuable, and for this
reason it is important to use plenty
of material as absorbents, so as to
retain all of the liquid and readily
soluble portions. For the same rea-
son it is also important to see that
the manure is properly protected from
rain, as this causes loss by teaching
and evaporation, and if manure is
thrown into hills to rot, it should be
protected from teaching rains.
Another item in rotting before haul
ing out is that during fermentation
manure throws off organic manner in
In gaseous form and unless consider
able care is taken in handling there
will be loss of nitrogen. Some use
gypsum, spreading in layers as the
manure is thrown on, in order to as
sist in retaining the nitrogen
The most effectual plan OF prevent
ing loss is to haul the manure and
scatter directly on the fields where it
is needed. Ii the ground is plowed
there will be q very small loss ofplant
food in any form. On steep hillsides
where there is a strong liability to
wash, there may be some loss; on
land that is reasonably level there
will be little if any loss, the valuable
parts being taken up and re-
tanned by the soil. OF course
well rotted manure contains a
larger per cent OF soluble matter, and
will be of less benefit to the succeeding
crops than when applied fresh. 1t re-
quires time to thoroughly rot manure
whether in piles in the yard, or in the
field. There is more work and more
risk of loss by piling and rotting be-
fore hauling out, and especially so il
left without projections; but if proper
ly handled it will decay in less time.
The more thoroughly the manure is
rotted and fined the more readily it
can be incorporated with the soil, and
the better the immediate results Sc
cured. Whichever plan is followed
care must be taken to avoid waste,
and at the same time lessen the cost
OF handling.

Stock and Their Drink.

One OF the worst things to contend
with in the care of stock is their drink.
No creature will thrive if compelled to
go thirty or forty rods to drink and
then get it by standing in the mud up
to their knees, or in q cold northwest
wind that will chill them so that tney
won't get warm for the next twenty
four hours. Farmers had better hire
money at twelve per cent. to bring
water to their barns than compel their
stock to travel off in the fields to
drink.
