Feeding PumpkInst 10 Hos

The National Stockman says: Tho
farmer who is so fortunate as to have n
good supply of pumpkins, has n yalu-
able food in them as a part ration for
his fattening hogs. 1t is claimed bv
some that hogs will fatten on them as
their only food. We would not care to
risk the statement so far as to undertake
to fit lot of hogs for market with them.
We would feed as many each day as
the hogs would eat up clean, and
then give them all the corn thew
would consume besides. Young hogs
with ration of pumpkins each day will
stand much longer feeding on corn
than they would If fed corn alone.
There can be no doubt that the mixed
ration will be much better assimilated
than the corn when fed alone. IL Is a
wasteful way of feeding, 10 throw out
enough corn or pumpkins, or both at
one time, to last the hogs two or three
days. Their food should be given to
them sweet and clean at least twice q
day"
Another plan Of feeding pumpkins to
hogs that has been found to produce eX-
cellent results is to begin early in the
fall, while the fattenlng hogs are in the
pasture lots, give them all they will eat,
as long as the supply lasts, then begin
with the corn.
Pumpkins alone will fatten hogs quits
rapidly, but the pork from such feeding
is soft and undesirable, and needs a fin-
ishing with corn to make it first-class.
Pumpkins are cheaper than corn-be-
SIDES being specially health-givlng
food; hence the fat and flesh added in
the beginning are more economically
produced and the profits propOrtionatelY
increased.

Rail News.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE Chicago
Railway Review, in its Forthcoming
number. will discuss editorially the sit
of Hon. t. M. Cooley as chairman ofthe
interstate commerce commission, and
will strongly urge the appointment of
A. W. Walker, the present chairman of
the Western Traffic association, as his
successor. 1t will say:
The resignation of Judge Cooley. the
death of Gen. Bragg and the early eX-
piration of the term of office of Col.
Morrison dec. 81, leaves the board
with only two members, both Of whom
are practically new men. Mr..
Knapp, the latest appointee, is as
yet untried. Conceding his ability,
it will be at least year before
anything can be expected from him.
Gen. Veazey, although longer on the
board, has during the past year had
much of his time occupied with other
duties, and is, therefore, in sense yet
new man. Both of these men are Re-
publicanS. The law requires that not
more than three members of the COM
mission shall belong to tue same politi-
cal party, hence it follows that of the
three appointees to be named within
the next few months two must be Dem
OcratS aud one may be Republican. We
assert that whoever may be selected as
the successor of Col. Morrison when his
term shall expire, the two men of the
United States necessary to the commits
sion at this political juncture, because
the most competent, by reason of
education, training and judicial quail
1icatlons, to fill the position, are Hon. A.
+. Walker and Hon. August Schoon-
maker. the former, by reason of his eX-
perience on the commission. followed
by more than two years service in con-
nectlon with traffic affairs, being par
ticularly well fitted to succeed Judge
Cooley in the chairmanship of the COM
mission.
1t will be readily understood that Mr..
Walkers ppOintment would be strongly.
opposed by that portion of the railroad
interest which resorts to underhand and
unlawful practices, but that is one of
the strongest arguments in favor of his
selection. We are in position to
know that this suggestion will be
exceedingly distasteful to both of
the gentlemen named. We are also
aware that the acceptance by them of
the Office of interstate commissioner
would necessitate large pecuniary sac
IlficeS on their part. But we believe
that inbred in an American there is
such thing as patriotism, and that
when its exercise is demanded the ques-
ton Of inclination or even of pecuniary
sacrifice is a matter of no moment. The
presence of these gentlemen on the
commission is, under existing condi-
tons, absolutely necessary, and we in
sist that neither of them can afford to
decline the position any more than
President Harrison can afford to fail to
appoint them.

Why Eggs Spoil.

Eggs spoil of Intellectual attempt to
hatch. Whenever a fertilized egg IS
raised to temperature of 92 degrees
the Matching process begins, and when
the temperature falls much below this
point the process ceases. These con-
ditions are found in the warm days and
cool nights OF summer. During the long,
hot day the Matching process is at
work; during the short, cool night
it ceases. After three or four
alterations of this kind the
embryo chick dies, and the rotting
process begins. Now, it is evident that
if the eggs were not fertiliZed the hatch
ing would not begin, neither would the
rOtting, and hence there would be an
absence of rotten eggs, says J. Fl.
Warner in Stock and Home. The rem-
edy, therefore, is to prevent fertiliza-
ton OF the eggs, and this can be secured
by the destruction of the roOsters.
Every rooster not intended especially
for breeding should be killed or
sold to the huckster as soon as big
enough to eat. Not over one good
rooster should be kept on any farm, and
that one cOoped and matted with not to
exceed ten hens, and the eggs from
those hens should be kept or sold ex4
pressly for Matching. The other hens
should be kept especially for eggs for
market or table use, and no rooster
should even be allowed among them. On
the ordinary farms about One-tenth OF
the fowls are rOosters. which is about
nine times as many as there can be any
possible Use for

RICHMOND TERMINAL.
Immediate Action Necessary to
Save the system.

immediate Action Necessary to
Save the System.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Rumors of a
receivership for the Richmond Terminal
system were received to-day, and it was
stated that-the company's finances were
in such shape that hasty steps would
have TO be taken or current claims
would be pressed against it at once.
None of the officials could be seen after
the rumOrS became definite, but it was
learned that the parties identified with
the control Of the property were work
ing on proposition to relieve it from
the burden of carrying any longer the
floating debts of lines composing the
system.
The proposition provides in some way
for the permanent assumption of the
floating debt by a syndicate, probably
of creditors, who will be secured by the
deposit of all the collateral now in the
treasures of the various companies.
OF these the Georgia Central has a float
ing debt of $3.50, 900, and securities in
Its treasury of par value of S29, 1000, 600.
The Richmond d Danville has float
ing debt of 81, 600, 900. The floating debt
of the East Tennessee is not definitely
known, but it is believed to be very
large. The Richmond Terminal has
floating debt OF 100000 borrowed on
100000 state OF Georgia bonds. Nearly
all the debt is Oh time loans, and it is
claimed that the company. if a market
could be found for it's securities, could
pay off the entire amount without

VOTED AND SMILED.
Fines Assessed Against Roads
RENTED UnanimousJy.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 11.-Before
adjourning Wednesday evening the
Trans-Missouri Passenger association
transacted an important bit of business
which has escaped public attention
until now. Just before adjourning one
of the lines submitted a resolution
to the effect that the fine of
S25 assessed against each of the
roads by Chairman Smith for neglecting
to secure the signatures of passengers
to tickets, as required under the rules,
be RENTED. Each road in the associa-
ton had been fined S25 and the price of
the ticket, which amounted to $50 for
each line. The resolution was read, and
great big smile went the round as the
unanimous vote of all the members pres
ent was cast for it. The resolution has
not yet taken effect, as the votes of the
Northern Pacific and the Great North
ern are to be secured. There is little
doubt of the way the roads will vote.

CAVALRYMEN SHOOTING.
Poor Results and the Reasons
Therefor.


Therefor.
CHICAGO, Sept. 11.-This was cavalry
mans day in the United States army
national shooting tournament at Fort
Sheridan. In their first competitive
skirmish firing, in order that tn e
riders and their little carbines
might not be at disadvantage in
the contest with their brethren of the
foot service and their long rifles. the
starting point was changed from the
600 yards limit to the 500 yards line.
The cartridge used by the cavalrymen
also contained five grains less powder
than the ammunition used by the infant
ry. But this difference is Offset by the
change IN starting and finishing points.
So far the cavalry has made a poor
showing where its results were COM
pared with those of the infantry, and
to-day'S shooting was no exception.
Among the reasons advanced for this in
different work is the fact that, until two
years ago, all the competitive shooting
by every branch of the service was
done with the long rifle. Another rea-
son is that in the cavalry training at
the posts the silhouettes have been sta
toned on the ground on level with the
markSmen, and not elevated as at pres
ent on bank four or five feet high. /:
OF the twenty contestants for places
on the army carbine teams but one;
Sergt. 81. /. Heuser. Company ssG,''
Second cavalry, scored hundred points.
His score was los, figure that in the
two infantry classes would be but an
average one. The distinguished carbine
men did better, three of them passing
the 100 mark; Corporal E. II. Steiner
making l13: Corporal P. M. Hake, III,
and Blacksmith A. Keiser, of the Sixth,
piling up 12l, being the best run of the
day. His morning run was ia points
and his afternoon LIT, which is the best
skirmish run ever made by cavalry
