the Term.

The February term of district court
will open next Tuesday with Judge
James Humphrey presiding. 1t will be
Judge Humphreys first ofiicial visit to
Abilene in the present term and he
will be heartily greeted by his many

few cases that will attract wide spread
attention, The criminal cases number
IA. The most interesting are three
grand larceny cases from country cis-
tricts, There are two peace warrant
cases and one justice court appeal.
The civil list has 1853 cases enrolled.
Among these are a number of divorce
pleas and two claims Of damages
against railroads. About half the

promises to be interesting chiefly to
court officials, attorneys and parties to
suits, though there will doubtless be
the usual attendance of onlookers.

Keep the Horses in Good Cooditioa Toe
the Spring Work.

Keep the Horses in Good Copditioa Toe
the Spring Work.
After the corn is cribbed and the fall
blowing done there is not a great deal
of team work to be done during the
winter. There will be some feed to
haul, more or less manure to haul out
and some fuel to haul Usually one
team will do all that is necessary. II
will be best to have this team well
shod and we'll fed so they can readily
do what is required of them. 1t is al
ways an item to keep them thrifty,
feeding and grooming we'll and regu-
larry. 1t does not pay to allow any of
them to run down, and while with
those that are not at work it is always
an item to winter as economically as
possible, at the same time the econom-
ical wintering should never be done at
the expense of condition. Close con-
fnemcnt is not good for horses. They
need exercise and they should be al
lowed to run out every day that the
weather will permit 1t may not be
advisable to turn them out into the
pastures, but they can have the run Of
lot to good advantage. If well shell
tered and given plenty of roughness
very little grain will be needed, but
they should have some. Unfinished
oats run through a feed cutter, with a
small quantity of bran, makes one of
the very best feeds for the idle teams
in winter. But hay and corn fodder,
with little corn and bran, will make
good ration. Once a week give all
the horses bran mash. This viii have
tendency to keep the bowels open
and will serve also to make a variety.
Never feed more of anything than
they will eat up clean. Even with
straw or corn fodder only what they
will eat clean should be given. This
is necessary if they have a good appe-
lite.
Corn can nearly always be fed with
benefit when the weather is very cold
on account of its heating qualities.
Use all reasonable care to keep them
comfortable, as in this way it is much
easier to keep them thrifty.
While it is not necessary to feed the
teams that are not at work as much as
those that are at work will need, yet
it will pay at all times to supply
enough to keep them thrifty, as in the
end it will cost less than to allow them
to run down and then be obliged to
feed up before the season for work
opens. The best way is to begin in
good season increasing the rations as it
may seem necessary.-St- Louis Re-
public
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1892-12-29
AMONG THE POULTRY.

FEEDING too much grain is not con-
ducive to health or egg production.
Too OFTEN there is an overlooking OF
grain and undertaking of more bulky
materials.
UNLESS bulky food is supplied the
hens will pick up much, that is, to say
The least not beneficial.
ONE decided advantage with ducks
over chickens is that they thrive best
when left in large numbers.
WIEN turkeys or ducks are to be fat
tened rapidly, it is important to confne
then in tolerably close quarters.
ALTHOUGH with good care the ducks
will begin laying early in the winter,
IL is not best to have them hatch until
early in the spring.
UNLESS the wheat screenings are
above the average, or they can be Sc
cured at very low price, they can be
hardly as cheap feed as many seem to
think.
WHEN the comb of fowl is large
and full of blood il is "A good indication
that il is in good health. When the
comb is of a purplish red it is an indica.
ton of disease.
WHEN the weather is damp, especial
ly. keeping the floors of the poultry
quarters literally sprinkled with air
slaked lime will aid in preventing roup
from making a start
GEEsR do not attain their full growth
and breeding qualities under three
years Hence, it is nearly always best
TO sell the young geese and keep the
older ones for breeders.
ONE reason why women usually suc-
ceed so well with poultry is because
they are more considerable of the
wants and necessities of fowls than
men. But they do not usually brag so
much about what they do.
ONE decided advantage with the in
eubator is that the chickens are usually
started under more favorable condi-
tions, as they gre free FROM lice, their
quarters are easier kept clean and they
are easier looked after.-St LOUIS Re-

After all Jay Gould died of con-

MAKE SOIL RICHER.

II Is Easily Done by the Application o.
Green Manure.
There seems to be no occupation In
life wherein men are so generally
averse to paying out money Tor its
equivaient) for benefits to be received
little later on, as in farming, and es-
pecially in relation to feeding the land
in order that it may produce more
abundantly. Take green manuring,
for instance. If a man sows a crop
for this purpose, half the time he
changes his mind when it is grown
and harvests and sells it, and this not
withstanding the fact that unless stock
feeding enters largely into his system
of operations green manure must be
his main dependence for continued or
increasing prosperity.
We do not begin to make use of this
means for supply fertility as we would
If we could bring ourselves to pursue a
more opeu-handed policy with our
lands. We might often put in a catch
crop of oats, rye or clover where land
is now left bare for months, and by
turning them under put solid capital
in our bank that will pay good divi-
dends in future years. The general
farmer is always on the safe side in
green manuring, though he may be a
stock keeper also, for, if he grows and
harvests crops with the purpose of
feeding them out and returning the
manure TO the land, the chances are
that his appliances for saving the
product are SO inadequate that not half
OF it gets where it is needed. In turn
ing under green crop, says writer
in Farmers Guide, there is no oppor.
tunity for the escape Of the valuable
elements. The crop decomposes COM
pletely in the ground which it is in
tended to enrich, and enters thea and
there upon its work.
