The registration by wards was as
follows: First, 204: Second, 241, Third,
SOL. The majority for bonds over the
registration and votes cast against
them is 273.
The issue of bonds, under the cir
cumstances, was in every way desira-
BILE and we are glad that there was
such unanimity among the voters in
taking this forward step in the histo-
ry of the city. AS previously stated,
$50, 900 of these bonds will be used in
funding the present floating Indebted
ness Of the city and 100000 will be
appropriated to the purchase and ex-
tension Of the water works.
1t is thought that no trouble will
be experienced in disposing of the
bonds at par and our insurance agents
say that as soon as the water works
are improved and extended that Win
ston will he raised to a higher class in
insurance circles and that rates upon
business property will be greatly re-
duced.
The authorities are to be cOngratu-
lated upon formulating the plans for
the bond issue and the voters gave ey-
idence that they are alive to the in
terests of the city by placing their
approval upon these plans.

HIGH TIDE AT GETTYSBURG.

A cloud possessed the hollow field. The gathering battles smoky shield; Athwart the gloom the lightnining flashed And through the cloud some horsemen
 dashed,
 And from the heights the thunder pealed. Then, at the brief command of Lee, Moved out that matchless infantry,
 With Pickett leading grandly down To rush against the roaring crown Of those dread heights of destiny. Far heard above the angry guns A cry across the tumult runs:
 The voice that rung through shiloh's woods And Chickamauga's solitudes. The fierce south cheering on her sons. An. how the whitening tempest blew Against the front of Pettigrue
 A khamsin wind that scorched and singed. Like that internal flame that fringed The British squares at Waterloo. ''Once more in Glory's van with me!' Virginia cries to Tennessee: We two together, come what may. Shall stand upon these works to-day, The reddest day in history" But who shall break the guards that wait Before ihe awful face of fate?
 The tattered standards of the south Were shriye'ed at the cannons mouth And all her hopes were desolate. In vain the Tennesseean set His breast against the bayohet In vain yirsinia charged and ragged. A tigress in her wrath uncaged; Till all the hin was red and wet, Ahove the bayonets mixed and crossed Men saw gray gigantic ghost
 lereang through the battle-cloud, And heard across the tempest loud Tse death cry Of nation lost. The brave vent down without disgrace They leaped C Ruins red embrace; They only heard flames thunder wake, And a. the dazzling sunbarst break. h smiles on Glory's b.oody facef

 His sugar coated speeches

 They hailed him as their savior And for bis good behavior Every single one of them was willing to go bond;
 From ocean unto ocean
 There arose great commOtion: They elected him the capsain of the Demo- cratic Band.
 With shouts ofacclamation
 They notified tbe nation. And spoke without restriction of the glori- ous things at hand.

Nitrate of soda is valuable fertili-

II. Ward. 1t should be applied with
powdered phosphate of lime TO pro-
duce its best effects. This application
to Strawberries will not only double,
but sometimes treble the yield. The
berries are larger in size, handsomer
In color and of finer flavor. Ordinary
manure will not produce such results,
for the reason that it is not converted
into plant food until after the demand

The plants grow early in the season,
and nitrate of soda being O leaf and

says the Now York Press.
1t seemed as though ingenuity had
last season exhausted It's combinations :;
but the resources of the French de-
signs are infinite, and the last petit
coets made surpass oil that haye gone
before.
Some of the new petticoats have
notched ruffles Of three.inch width
sewed into the edge, one Tapped upon
another and all of different tints, and
these form a very full ruche, by which
means ones skirts are fringed with q
delicious harmony of color.
A roso silk skirt hos such ruche of
many tints of rose, running into O
brown red, like the heart of rose.
"A black skirt, broched with orange,
has the ruche of orange and black; q
black lace fiounce set above is caught
in festoons with orange ribbons.
A new and practical iden with lace
ruflles on petticoats is to run nor
row ribbon the color of the skirt along
the edge ON the under side. It strength
ems the lace and is hardly visible.
Lace rufiles are sometimes further
decorated by having many rows of

the top.
Crimped chiffon rufilos arc on many

For harder wear, skirts have the

AN ODD. TRICK.

"Women play odd tricks on one
another sometimes" said lady of
fashion, "but the queerest 1 ever
heard of was pepetrated by one social
leader i'll Western city upon another.
They were rivals and hated each other
accordingly, though outwardly they
preserved the semblance of pleasant
relations. Every chance that either
got to give a dig ut the other was
eagerly seized. But the final and
most effective stroke, after which no
calls wore exchanged, was delivered by
Mrs. l.. She sent out cards for a
grand entertainment, and then took
pains to find out what Mrs. F., her
competitor, was going to wear. A
gorgeous pink brocaded satin was the
material of Mrs. F.. gown, it was as
certained. Accordingly, Mrs. L.,
whose husband was in the dry goods
business, obtained several hundred
yards of the Same identical stuff and
draped the walls of all the rooms on
the lower floor of her house with it.
You may imagine the feelings of Mrs.
f. on arriving in her superb new
frock, which she expected to make q
sensation. Naturally, she ordered her
carriage and drove away in ,tears. -

FEEDING HOGS.

Tho report of the series oRexperi-
ments in pig-feedine, begun In Bulletin
No. 20. of the Oregon Station, is con-
Guided in Bulletin No. 20. The re-
port goes far to prove the truth of
the contention that pork cnn be profit
ably produced in Oregon without tho
aid of corn. Bran, shorts, oats and
wheat formed the mixed feed given.
Experiments made at the South Da-
kota Station showed That hogs fed ON
unground peas, whole wheat or
ground wheat, gave the Same amount
of lean and fat meat. Hogs fed ON
cornmeal not only showed less lean
meat in proportion to fat, but actu-
ally less in amount. Those fed on
mixed feed produced tho greatest sup
ply of lard and moro lean ment than

Tho pork is described rs equally good

now TO KEEP THE CHICKS GROWING.

When the chicks arc week old.
turn the old hon with her brood into
the meadow, after 10 O'Clock, every
fine day. The dew will be off the
grass and tho chicks will hustle for
anything in the shape of worms or
bugs. The exercise is what they want
and need-an hours romp is long
enough. They should then be driven
into tho brooding coop and fed mod
erately. The chickens already Matched
should BIO kept growing, in ordcr that
they may be urge and strong enough
to stand the excessive heat of the sum
mer days. They should be kept grow
ing for another reason, and that is to
save the grain. A chicken which sim
ply holds its own is one that is wasting
oil the grain fed to it. 1t is making
no return whatever for what it oats.
And then, too, n chicken that is kept
growing, and has no periods of stand
ing still, will generally mako larger
and finer fowl than one which grows

is profitable growth. American Agri-
