Rice swells considerably more by
boiling than any of these six sorts, but
it is seldom given to poultry, except
for fattening, under the notion that
it tends to whiten the flesh.

Cooked Food for Fattening.

French poultry keepers, according
to Boswell, generally cook the grain
intended for fowls they wish to fatten.
They boil it till the farina swells and
softens, SO as to burst the enveloping
membrane. 1t is the general opinion
that burst grain is better than dry for
fattening poultry, and whether this is
founded upon accurate experiment or
not, it Is of Importance to ascertain
the difference of expense between the
two, and whether more or less is eaten
of the one than the other. To discover
this, NJ. Reamur caused four pint
measures of each of the six common
sorts of grain to be boiled until they
we're well burst, and he ound the in
crease of bulk in each sort was the fol-
lowing:

Judge Wilson when the defendant en-

Every person in the court room watched
the little incident.
Carlisle opened the case for the plain
tiil taking up charges and answers

remarks Miss Pollard covered her eyes
and began to tremble, and it looked for
a moment as if there would be fainting
scene.
Col. Thompson fort the defence reserved
his opening statement. Mra. Blackburn
widow Of Ex-Governor Luke Blackburn
Of Kentucky, then took the stand and
stated that Breckenridge in her presence
said he would marry Miss Pollard.

TODAY to Farmers Only.


S. Otho Wilson, representing the Farm
crs' alliance business agency, made an
address at the court house at l o'clock
today. number Of the uninitiatcd went
to the court house to hear the talk, but
an invitation was cxtcndcd to "politi-
clans. such as Democrats. Republicans and
lawyers" to leave. Among those who
left was "unCle Pleas" Israel, who is a
good farmer and Alianceman. but first
OF all Democrat.
The address was for the purpose OF
instructing the farmers about TIL egg
industry and how to market their farm
produce TO the best advantage. Bust
ness agents from ~ subalianccs heard
the talk and such interest was devcl-
opcd that the agents decided to he Id a
meeting here next Wednesday to further
consider the question.
S. Otho Wilson told THE CITIZEN in
reply to questions that no political sig
niflcancc could be attached to his visit
or to his address. He was here on a
purely business matter affecting the
farmers, Next week, he said, the Alliance
would open an exchange in Raleigh,
where the farmer could sell his produce
and receive cash therefor. Later on the
alliance hopes to establish an exchange
at Ashevllc and another at Greensboro.
When asked about the probability Of
a coalition of the Populist and Rcpubli
can forces in North Carolina, Mr.. vii
sons reply WAS That is impossible
Nevertheless, Mr.. Wilson and Rich

were in consultation for time abou,

ExCongrcssman ii. G. Ewart came
down from Hendcrsonville last night on

Ewart said it was rather soon to talk
about what the Republicans in the Ninth

race. He thought, however, that if Rich
mond Pearson should be endorsed by
the Republicans and Populists he would
make a strong race.
Referring to Mr.. Pearson's letter on

saying Mr.. Pearson was in error in stat
ing that there was dissenting opinion

A New Yorker Writes "Parson" Da-

The stories about Corbett's being a
sick man are being revived, just as they
were before he fought Mitchell. The
New York Advertiser declares that the
American champion contracted malaria
in Florida and is in a bad way, and
now "Parson" Davies is authority for
the statement that Corbett has might
sweats." After the performance at the
Academy last Thursday night Davies
said he had just received a letter from
a New York friend who declared that
he knew positively that Corbett was a
sick man and troubled with might
sweats"
THAT makes very clear the reason
why Corbett wants to postpone the
fight" explained the Parson.
At the same time that it says Cor

idly aging on Davies hands, and that
is why the latter is so anxious to have

THE BEEF OUTLOOK.

Mr.. May, head of the wholesale trade
at Portland, says that beef is very low,
and that that city is consuming only
one-half as much now as at this time
last year. San Francisco, notwithstand-
ing the fair, is consuming one-third
less. The first-class hotels and restau-
rants in the latter city buy their best
loin meat for nine cents pound, but
the butchers make the general public
pay 20 cents-and the public won't pay
it when they can get turkeys and fish
for to 10 cents. / think the outlook
is good for the near future, however.
In Southern California, grass that
should be foot high is but couple of
inches out of the ground. This will

A BAMBOO CRAZE.

One of Astorias economical and
would-be members Of the water COM
mission, was on his mettle last night.
Using his good right arm for a handle
| he pumped a large amount of atmos-
! phere in and out of his form while he
told some of his acquaintances what is
what about the railroad, and things
in town generally. Those who listened
to the woul-be commissioner did not
know with one or two exceptions) what
was working on him. 1t was fair to
suppose that he had absorbed some of
the music from Utzingers band prac,
tice but as that had worked off early
in the evening, the uninitiated were at
loss to account for the gentleman's
renewed youth and vigor
The fact was, he had made a timely
discovery that smashes up into little
bits the hard nut known in history as
"Astoria's Water Works Question"
This discovery consists of a big BAN.
boo forest located down in Old Mexico.
He reports that bamboo in this great
forest grow to be two or three feet in
diamaterl They are hollow and very
tough. A hundred trees could fall on
one and not be broken. He urges that
about 100 miles of bamboo of varying
diameter be purchased by the city of
Astoria, to be used for water mains to
the new reservoir
This bamboo, so he enthusiastically
states, can be bought at 'steen cents
lineal yard, and the freight on the en-
tire 100 miles is not expected to exceed
umsteen cents a hundred weight
This makes these bamboo water
mains cost nearly 100 per cent less than
the old-fashioned and costly pipes now
in use.
1t is the fact that this would-be COM
missioner had the secret of this great
and timely discovery locked up in his
breast that has made him so gay
lately.
Brethren, let us resolve to watch this
enthusiast. He is liable to cut caper
at any hour now
