OLD SOLDIERS WARNED.
They Must Look to Their Titles if They
COlonize in Georgia.

NO1UHtAU III OoO1BI1'
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 31.-Thomas
G. Lawler of Illinois, commander in
chief of the G. A. R. has issued gen
eral order No II to G. A. r. posts, copy
of which was received here today by the
Indiana department. The order was to
do with the scheme to colonize old sol
diers in Georgia where land inducements
are offered by the parties at the head OF
the movement
The uncertain title of much OF
the land in Georgia has
moved the commander in chief
without comment as to the merits or de-
merits of the proposed colonization, to
urge upon the old soldiers the necessity
of a clear title before investing their
money. The Indiana department is
spreading the order without comment.

small Farnas Rest.

The farm papers all coincide that,
as a rule, farmers attempt to cult
yate too much land. 1t is fact, and
one to be deplored, that almost
everyone spreads his efforts over too
much territory. The boast is, how
many acres of crops one has grown
and not how much per acre. A
neighbor took pride in saying that
he had put in seventy acres OF
Spring crops; but another, who had
only twenty-five acres Of land, made
more net money from it than the
former did from his whole farm of
$50 acres. Now, which was the
wiser and better farmer? A long
time ago someone printed a pamph-
let with this title: "TeD Acres
Enough" Large farmers thought
the author crank; but [ can name
and locate man who supports him
self, wife and six children from the
products of his "farm"of two acres,
and lays up money besides. He has
neither greenhouse nor nearby city
market to facilitate his operations.
He resides in country place where
land is cheap, and transports his
goods to a village market, consid-
cradle distance away; but he seldom
returns without bringing load of
manure that costs him nothing. The
possibility of the production ofland
is little realized. Some years ago |
tried a small corner in the garden
to see what value per acre OF Vege-
tables could be grown upon it.
They were sold at retail, and came
to over $1,000 per acre. While this
could not probably be done on a
large scale, yet it goes far to show
what might be accomplished by in
tensive farming. Most of us would
do better to spread less and concen-
trate more.

Dtnarent Ra,s OF Moltlng.

Different breeds of poultry have
different ways of molting. Some
hens shed their feathers rapidly,
while with others the process is
more gradual. We have noticed
that Plymouth Rock hens usually
mott very slowly. Many of the
old feathers are retained while q
part of the new ones are well de-
veloped. Hens that thus molt
slowly usually lay throughout the
period of shedding their feathers,
if they be well fed. Brahmas and
Cochins also mott gradually, and
lay each a good many eggs while
shedding their feathers. With the
Leghorns and Minorcas, however,
the process is more severe and ex-
haustive. They seem to drop their
feathers, as it were, and to get al
most bare before they have any new
ones. Laying stops short off and
no eggs are to be had from them
until the shedding business is fully
completed and the new coat of
feathers well finished. The combs
on hens of the latter varieties shrivel
up and look very unattractive while
the molting is going on. 1t usually
takes a Leghorn seventy-fve to
ninety days to get her new feathers,
and during that time she lays but
few if any eggs at all.

Fertilixing Tomatoes.

In a series of experiments con-
Quoted at Cornell Experiment Sta
ton in 1891 it was shown that the
best fertilizers for tomatoes are
those which produced their effects
early in the season. AS to early and
late seeding, it was proven by ex-
periments of two years that plants
which are set in the field early are
less injured by inclement weather
than is generally supposed and that
very early seeding and well prepar-
ed land appears to be advisable.
But, on the other hand, early seed
ing requires especially strong and
stocky plants. AS to training, it
was found that the single item sys-
tenn gave twice as much yield per
square foot as the ordinary culture;
and this system also showed greatly
decreased injury from rot. Toma-
toes will mix in the field, and even
hybrids with the currant type of
tomato may arise spontaneously.

Farn7 Notes.
AMONG the Poultry.

Skinned milk and rye mower Is
good for bowel troubles.
1t is always best to have two
rooms to the poultry house.
Feed corn to the sitting hens.
1t digests slowly and keeps up the
heat.
Leaves and chaff make good
litter for the floor of the poultry
house.
There is no better disinfectant in
the poultry house than burning
sulphur.
Sunfiower and sorghum seed can
be fed at this time to the fowls at a
good advantage.
Well-fed pullets will always lay
much earlier than those that are
allowed to go to roost hungry.
At this time it is best to set a
hen whenever she is ready, espe-
cially if You have warm building.
Ducks grow about twice as fast
as chickens, and will weigh twice
as much as chickens of the same
age.
Have two sets of roosting poles,
changing every few days. Keep
one set out of doors when not in
use.
Healthy, thrifty fowls are always
early risers. They should be fed
as soon as they fly down from the
roosts.
A quick maturing fowl is desir-
able as market fowl and also for
home consumption, especially early
in the Spring.
The goose, if properly managed,
lays about as many eggs as a tur-
key, and can be raised to maturity
at about one-half the cost.
If hens are kept too fat they will
neither lay nor take necessary exer-
else nor forage. Both are necessary
in maintaining good health.
Most of the diseases Of the feet
with poultry are caused by having
the roosts so high that the fowls are
obliged to jump down some dis
lance.
DO not undertake TO have too
many breeds at one time unless
you are prepared to keep each breed
separate. Promiscuous crossing
does not pay.
Young chickens of fancy breed
ing should not be permitted to roost
in perches until they are three
months old. 1t often causes crook
ed breast bones.
When young stock is used for
breeding it should be from the ear
Hest Matching, say those Matched in
March or April. They should be
reasonably well matured at least.
Pekin ducks will grow to a mar
ketable size and attain a greater
weight in given length of time
than ducklings of any other breed.
The matured ducks will lay more
eggs than any other breed.
Ducklings are much more easily
fed than chickens. Nothing seems
to disagree with them as long as it
is sweet. Skim milk buttermilk,
meal, potatoes and everything of
this kind they take kindly to.
Color is not essential in market
poultry except when it Injuries the
looks of the dressed fowls. A rich
yellow skin will enhance the sale OF
dressed poultry, and this cannot be
found in all breeds, especially the
black ones.

MAI. HAMILTON MURDERED.
The Famous Hero of Libby Prison Shot
In "A Drunken Row.

Lexington, Ky, April 6.-At Reedy-
vile, Butler county, Samuel Spencer
shot and killed Major Andrew J. Hamil-
ton. a gallant union soldier. Major
Hamilton was nearly 60 years old. and
had been an honored citizen of Butler
county nearly all his life. During the
last few years he had become addicted
to drink, and while under III influence
Of liquor last night he met Spencer and
a man named Alfred Belcher. They
went 10 a saloon on the outskirts of the
town and spent several hours there
drinking and playing cards. About l
o'clock this morning Hamilton started
home, the two men leaving the saloon
with him. When within a short dis
lance of Hamilton's house they got
into a quarrel, Hamilton being very
drunk. While he was talking To Relcher
Spencer walked up behind him and with
q big pistol shot him in the back Of the
head. The old soldier. who had fought
all through the war Of the rebellion, fell
forward on his face a corpse.
Spencer and Belcher We're arrested
about daybreak and lodged in Jail. The
officers had great difficulty in prevent
them from being lynched. AT first

WAsHINGToN. April 6.-The Spanish
government has conceded the request of
the United States that the two Ameri.
can citizens, August Bolton and Gustav
Richilieu, imprisoned at Santiago de
Cuba, be given an opportunity to estab,
lish their innocence before a civil tri.
bunal. These men were picked up in a
small boat near Santiago by a Spanish
cruiser and brought TO the town and
placed in Jail. United States Consul
Hyatt secured their release, but they
were again arrested under suspicion Of
having landed insurgents on the Cuban
coast. Instructions were cabled to Con.
sui Hyatt to protest against a trial by
the marine authorities and to insist
upon a definite accusation of crime aud
either a speedy trial or a civil trial.
