The Profit In Hens.

The hen on the farm is something with
which all are familiar who have had any
thing to do with farming, and she seems
TO be necessary adjunct thereto. In
deed farm without hen would be
curiosity 1t certainly denotes that the
hens are considered a source of revenue to
a certain extent, if for no other purpose
than to supply the eggs for family con
sumption. 1t is true, also, says Farm and
Poultry. that, while no farm can easily be
found that does not contain poultry, yet
the poultry on the farm receive less recog-
milton than any other class of stock
Farmers seem to set them apart as suita-
BILE for the care of the female members of
the family and consider the profit from
poultry to be too insignificant for their no
;ice, vet they seldom venture to learn, by
keeping an account, how much the hens
pay in year.
Hundreds of farmers grow crops of
wheat on margin of but two or three
dollars profit per acre, and engage in very
laborious work to make that small profit.
vet the same labor, care and amount of
capital given flock of hens ON an acre of
land that is often given crop of ten acres
of wheat would show largely in favor of
hens The farmer has never engaged in
the keeping of poultry as business, and
really does not know what can be done in
that respect There is no more reason for
turning the hens over to the female men,
bers of the family than for the farmer to
abandon any other department, and in so
doing he makes mistake, as he should
seek the best channels for securing the most
profit. Land that is Improbable for cul-
tivation can be used for poultry, and the
markets are always ready to receive all that
can be produced. Considering the small
proportion of labor required from spring to
fall, and the self-sustaining powers Of the
fowls in seeking their food 1t is no mis-
take to assert that nothing on the farm is
produced at so bow a cost as eggs, and
brings SO high price in proper
tion to value of labor bestowed and cost of
food.

E K. HERR & BRO,
Evening star., 1895-05-28
Resisted the officer.

Judge Miller today heard the case of the
colored man, Abe Fitzhugh, who gave
Policeman Evans so much trouble Sunday
when he arrested him in stable in South
Washington, where. he charges, there was
game of crap being played The police
man said he saw five colored men in one
of the stalls in the stable shooting crap
He saw forty cents on the ground and
heard the men using profane language.
When he placed Abe under arrest the lat
ter resisted, and they had a fight. The
officer used his club, and the colored man
took it from him. Then the officer drew
his pistol, but did not use it.
IF / had been the policeman" said a
citizen, who appeared as witness, II would
have shot the man."
Lawyer Hewlett, who appeared for Fftz-
hugh, claimed that the policeman had no
right to enter the stable without war
rant, but his point was overruled, and the
defendant gave his version of the affair.
He admitted that he started out of the
stable with the officer, but when he asked
the blue-coated guardian for what he had
arrested him, the latter replied, I'm stuck
on you"
Fftzhugh denied that there was a crap
game played in the stable, and called sev-
eral others to give evidence for him.
Judge Miller, in disposng of the case,
said that FitZhugh was well enough ac-
quainted in police and court methods to
understand that he cannot hold court on
the street.
He was given sixty days and fined IS or
fifteen days
