AMONG THE POULTRY,

Table scraps Of all kinds are good
for the poultry.
TO lay we'll, hens must haye good
variety of food.
"A dry dust bath will help to keep
off yermin.
1t is not good economy te pick
geese in winter.
Two or three weeks good feeding
ought to fatten almost any kind of fowl.
.-Guineas are good layers and when
they ale not too old their flesh is tender
and sweet.
Plump broiers always find a ready
market at good prices.
1t is not good plan to try to breed
too many kind of fowls at one time.
Have the poultry house warm with
plenty of sunshine.
Provide busting and scratching
place where grain can be scattered and
in this way make the fowls take exercise
Scatter the grain in order to keep
the fowls from eating too fast.
From this time on very good plan
Of feeding is to give whole corn at night
and soft feed in the morning with some
kind Of grain at noon.
-Swelled head and eyes in chickens
and turkeys are often due to exposure
to draughts coming through cracks in
the poultry house.
One Of the best remedy for swelled
head, if taken in time, is to bathe in
warm water then anoiut the whole head
with giycerin.
ALL the lime for eggshells can be
supplied by liberal feeding of clover.
There is large proportion Of lime in
the composition of clover.
The best way to raise pullets is to
give them food rot abounding in fat
forming materials, with plenty Of ex-
ercise.
Go carefully over the poultry house
and stop up cracks. Make the house
as comfortable as possible.
When the hens begin to lay thin
shelled eggs it is pretty sure indica
tion that they are not getting lime.
Fowls that have good range do
not often lay thin shelled eggs.
Wheat bran is better feed for lay
ing hens than corn because it contains
mora lime and phosphates; but in nearly
all Gases it is best to feed with some
thing else, such as potatoes.

them in the way of their less FORUM

for them to become jealous and

THE FIGURES.

Hon. DUPONT Query, in a recent
address, scores the following strong
point on that wild theory OF the pop
ulists about government ownership
of the railroads
cit will cost the government Sill,
900, 100000 to buy all the railroads
in this country. Where is the mon
ey coming from? The money OF the
whole world is only s14, 200, 100000.
Are you going to get it by direct
taxation the populist clamor tor
lower taxes and this tax would bank
rupt everybody but the millionaires.
Are you going to get it by interest
bearing bonds? The populists cen>
sure Grover Cleveland because he
issued S50,000,000 of bonds to save
the country from bankruptcy and in
this measure they advocate a s11,>
600, 100000 bond issue, which would
make the little bondholders who
now own the country mere paupers.
Let the government make this pur-
chase and the present owners Of the
railroads would have all the money
in the world"

ON THE DIAMOND.
Marietta and Gainesville Played Two
Interesting Games Last Week.

On Wednesday and Thursday afternoons
of last week the Marietta base ball nine
crossed bats with team assuming the
name of Gainesville" but which was
composed of players from Piedmont, Cave
Springs, Rome aud Hockmart. Only
about three men from Gainesville played.
The game on Wednesday afternoon
was called about three o'clock, and
was one that base bail enthusiasts delight
in. Both teams played fairly well, with
Marietta keeping the lead just far
enough to make the game intensely in
;eresting. The Mariettas seemed to be
playing in luck and succeeded in finds
ing the ball when hit was most needed.
Gainesville had men on bases several
times and when hit would probably have
won them the game, but the clean fielding
and good judgment of both the in aud out
field of the Marietta's paralyzed their
hopes. The features OF The game were the
catching of Mr.. Geo. Orr, who caught
Cor Marietta, and the good stick work
and all around playing OF McCarty OF the
Mariettas. Granting play first in good
style, holding that base down without an
error. Special mention mag be made
here of the steady work Of Gainesville
battery at critical times. Altogether the
game was very brilliant one, and was
played with the usual snap and ginger that
characterizes q good game. The score
was ii to in favor of Marietta.
The game on Thursday afternoon, while
good one. was not as good as the one
played on the day before. The CARERS
villes appeared determined from the start
and played well all the way through, while
the Marietta's played listless game up to
about the sixth inning when they seemed
to realize what defeat meant and played
better ball. From this or it was nip and
tuck, with Gainesville in the lead, and at
the end of the game the score was Is to IA
in favor OF Gainesville The Marietta's
fairly out played Cartersvilles, but the err.
rors made by the home team were at criti-
cal times and proved very costly, letting
in several runs.
Many brilliant plays were made during
the game. the majority Of which belong to
Gainesville. The battery work of the
teams during both games was very good,
each doing effective work OF critical times.
The players on the Gainesville team are
very clever set of young men, and play
good ball.
Another game will probably be arranged
between the same clubs to be played on
neutral grounds. The attendance at both
games was good, many of the fair sex
gracing the occasion with their presence.
