OLD PoINr CoNFoRr, Va. March d.
There has been good deal Of music in the
cir during the past week, more perhaps
than the average enlisted man IN the gar
rison cares 10 hear, especially as IL 10 in
this cese intimately connected with the
battalion drill. This inyigorating exercise
was inaugurated by Colonel Pennington,
superintendent of practical instruction at
tho Artillery School, last week, and Will be
continued for some time to come. AS the
band plays for the two hours drill II
always attracts large number OF visitors
who sit about under the live-oaks. listen to
the music, and criticise the man9uvres. II
can be safely stated that the boys don't
relish this part OF their military duties,
but IL Is case of "growl you may, but go
you must" Some years ago Murat Hal

PITTSBURGH, Pa, March 21.-There is
great distress among the strikers of the
Connellsyille coke region. The contribu.
tions 30 far to the relief committee do not
amount to more than $4,000. This has
not proven sufficient to purchase food, and
the miners live chiefly on the charity OF
the farmers. Their case is desperate, and
it is believed they will have TO 60 back to

hens are not all alike. Some are better
layers than others. And again, SONS of
them make better settlers and mothers
than do some others.
In fact, the common run Of hens NAV
be divided into two classes. First those
marked to considerable extent take
the Spanish class being light built. and
having smooth shanks and toes, fairly
large combs, and tendency to white in
the earlobe.
Hens of this class are the best layers
among the mongrels. They lay after
the manner of the Spanish or Leghorns.
laying two or three eggs, then skipping
day, and so lay about five eggs week,
keeping it up for several weeks before
waiting to set.
The other class approximate the
Asiatic thoroughbreds. Being pather
broad and heavy in structure, with a
tendency to feathers on the shanks and
toes; low and rather thick com BIS and
red ear-lobes.
Such hens are steady layers when
they begin, laying every day until they
want to set, which they are rather pre-
disposed to. and hard to break up They
lay fewer eggs in a litter, and also in 4
year, than hrst-named class. but make
better settlers and mothers
Then we have in the South, the plan
tation pit game, a special feature Of
our Southern poultry, and a good one.
Indeed, our plantation game hens are
hard to beat in any respect As layers,
they rank with the first-class named,
and as settlers and mothers they can not
be exceled. They must have unre-
stFiOted liberty. howeyeF, 10 thrive Is

SWEET POTATOES.
A Georgia Mans Method of Saving sweet
Potatoes.

A Georgia Mans Method of Saving sweet
Potatoes.
There are great many ways to save
sweet potatoes; almost every man has
way Of his own. Here is the way
have had the best results: I prepare the
bed in the usual way. ! then take a
round stob three or four inches in dia&-
eter, shapen and drive in the center of
the bed; this stob should be four or FIVE
feet long. then scatter a little straw
over the bed, put in the potatoes until
the hill is the desired size, then make
pipe out Of six inch boards about
eighteen inches long and slip it over this
stob and let it rest on the potatoes; now
the straw is put on eight or ten inches
deep. | then, for convenience to get
into the hill during winter or spring,
make another box out OF six inch
boards with nothing but the two sides
and ends, on top or bottom. The ends /
cut twelve inches long and the sides
twenty-six inches long. so when the
sides are nailed on to the ends, it is
1924 in inside. This is laid up and
down on the straw but near the bottom
of the hill. Then make q cover to fit
this in this way: Cut board 14x26
inches, just the size of the box or frame
outside measurement; then on the
edges of this cover nail on all around it
three-inch Stats. letting one edge
come even with the top of the cover
and the other part will form a flange or
lip to fit down over this box. Thus you
will break the joint and have
it proof against frost in Georgia.
For convenience to remove this cover,
nail a hand holt across it. Thus 1
have very convenient opening to the
potatoes, nothing being in the way
after this cover is removed but the
straw. Then in the usual way cover
the rest of the hill with boards or bar
rel slaves, and cover this with dirt
eight or ten inches deep, draw out the
center stob, leaving the eighteen-inch
pipe standing as little chimney. Thus
we have an opening from the bottom of
the pile to the open air. Now put a
shelter over it all, and it is complete:
and in the spring when the potatoes are
all removed, put all these boxes and
stobs under your house FOR next season.
