How Menhaden Oil and Gunno Are
/ H., Made.
The process Of extracting oil from the
menhaden is very simple. When the
fish is delivered at the factory it is
Immediately placed in large iron tanks,
containing about a foot deep of water.
Heat is then applied until the mass
begins to simmer, when the heat is
turned off. In this way the fish is more
thoroughly steamed, and the oil cells
are more or less separated from the
flesh Often, when the fish is rich in

ing mass and runs in troughs to the
oil tank. y .--a .. i.~
After the steaming the fish is placed
q in 'scurbs,'' circular vessels having per
forated bottoms, and rolled to the oil
presses. Here the oil is released by
hydraulic pressure, and the remainder
Z is simn1v the heterogeneous Dart of the
fish, which is called scrap"
The preparation of the scrap, or fish
guano, is very simple. After the oil is
released, the solid matter is taken tc
the drying boards-a large field covered
with closely fitting tongued and groov
ed flooring-upon which it is spread tt
dry. From first to last the creates
care is taken that no foreign substance
shall become mixed with it. Whcl
it is sufficiently dry it is bagged fo1

Poultry Notes.

It requires % to 26 days to hatch
pheasant eggs.
a hen in her prime when properly
fed and cared for, should yearly fur

Eggs from hens not in company with
cocks have been found to keep very
much longer than those from hens
mated with cocks. In summer, after
Matching is over, remove the males SIS
the hens will lay as well without them.
On the average farm the poultry in

BUILDING GOOD ROADS.

1t is generally agreed that all of
the leading railway lines along the
route Of the main producing section
of the country in both the South
and West will cooperate with the
agricultural department of the
government in the movement for
better roads. Letters have been
received from a large number Of
railway officials, to which circulars
were sent by Gen. Stone, in charge
of the road inquiry bureau, asking
if the companies would combine for
a uniform cost basis on rate for
road materials Almost all assert
a willingness to join in with connect
ing roads to promote the good roads
movement. Some officials replied
that while willing to carry material
at the bare cost of hauling the
roads were prohibited from making
such rates, either by persons or
states, and suggesting that the
department will have to take the
matter to the state legislature or
to the interstate commerce com
mission before the roads will be at
liberty to act. The department Of
Gcials, however believe that there
will be no difficulty in securing nee

rightly used. The many, who live bet

less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health Of the pure liquid

Its excellence is due to its presenting

beneficial properties of a perfect lax

dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

DECIDEDLY INTERESTING.

At a stated meeting of one of the
feminine" literary circles of Dallas,
Texas, on a recent date, one of the
fair members contributed a genuine
newspaper, the contents of which,
culled by her own fair hand, en-
braced wider field of current news
that that usually covered by met
ropolitan dailies. Beginning with
an interesting and terse chronicle
of local happenings of the week,
this journal, in embryo, dashed out
upon the wider field of current
events, 1t had a bright bit of
verse, purely original, at the top of
the first column, that comprised ev-
erything from spring to politics.
Then it dipped into the past with
an illusion to classic lore and came
up alongside of Coxey's army and
that of Frye, in an attempt to dis
cover the national complexion Of
of its constituents and 'where they
we're at" and why; it presented the
pictures of four men of four foreign
nations, who have outlived the al
lotted time, Gladstone and Bis
marck, names forever enshrined in
hearts that beat true in England
and Germany De Lesseps, whose
services for his country and the
world cannot be estimated, but up
on whose name there is so dark a
spot that all the future can never
make it pure; Kossuth, the noble
Hungarian patriot, whose knell yet
reverberates in lands where he was
known and honored. The Hawaiian
trouble received a humorous parody
in mention of Prof, Garners re
turn from Africa, where he says it's
inhabitants have a language, live
in colonies, are governed by king,
etc. The point turned on the pos
sibility that the American govern
ment might see in it field for an
nexation, preceded by a commission
to dethrone the king ape and estab-
lish a provisional government. The
Presidents veto of the Bland bill,
the election of Tillman and the dis
pensary riots in South Carolina, the
fight at the polls between two re-
ligio-political parties at Kansas City,
the Voorhees, tariff bill now before
the Senate, the treasury report of
March 81, all were touched up by
the editors versatile pen for the
edifcation of the circle.

the waves play pitch and toss with
you, strong indeed must be the
stomach that can stand it without
revolving. Tourists, commercial
travellers, yachtsmen, mariners, all
testify that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters Is the best remedy for the
nausea experienced in rough wealth
er on the water. Nervous and weak
ly travellers by land often suffer
from something akin to this, and
find in the bitters its surest rene
dy. No disorder of the liver, stom-
ach and bowels is so obstinate that
it may not be overcome by the
prompt and thorough remedy.
Equally efficacious it is for the
chills and fever, kidney and rheu

dicinal safeguard against the effects
of vicissitudes of climate, hardship,

THE KING CASE.
Justice Battle, of the Arkansas su-
preme Court Renders Decision
in the Noted King Case.

The decision of Justice Battle of
the Arkansas Supreme Court, in
the case of G. S. Wilson VS.. H. Clay
King establishes among other things
the fact that Kings conviction of
murder and sentence to life impris-
onment in Tennessee, operates in
no sense as a bar to his right to
maintain suit in the courts of this
state. The decision will prove of
general interest to the people of
this state where the defendant was
once well known and held large
property interests The following
is a copy of the decision;
S. c. Wilson VS.. H. Clay King.
In Pillow VS.. King, lately pending
in this court, John Farmer execut-
ed bond to stay proceedings in the
the decree appealed from that case.
He was afterwards released on his
application from further liability,
and S. G. Wilson executed another
bond in the sum of SO, 800 for the
same suppose, which was filed with
and approved by the clerk of this
court.
The decree appealed from in the
case of Pillow VS.. King was affirmed
by this court and King brought
this action on the bond of Wilson
to recover the damages he suffered
during the pendency of the appeal,
by reason of being deprived Of the
use of the lands and other property,
to the possession of which he was
entitled under the decree affirmed,
which he argues exceeded the
amount of the bond sued on. The
defendant answered and alleged as
follows:
First-That King was incompe-
tent to sue, ''because he was civilly
dead, having been found guilty of
murder in the first degree, and been
sentenced to death in Shelby county
Tenn.
Second-That at the time he sign
ed the bond it was agreed with
Mrs. Pillow that certain notes
should be delivered to him (the de-
fendent) for idemnity before the
bond was filed, of which he inform
ed the clerk of this court, and that
the notes have never been deliver
ed
Third That if liable at all, he
was only liable for such damages or
rents as accrued subsequently to
the 9th of April, 1891, the day on
which his bond was filed, Farmer
being liable for the damages and
rents which accrued while his bond
was in force,
HELD.
Frst--the conviction and sentence
Of King in the state of Tennessee
does not affect his right tosue and
recover in this state.
Second-The Second defence was
wholly unsustained by the evidence.
Third-The defendent was liable
for all the rents of and damages to
the property recovered by the plain
tiff in Pillow VS.. King accruing
during the entire term of the
pendency of the appeal therein.
