FEEDING SOFT FOOD TO HENS.

To keep hen in good condition for
laying, she should never have full
crop during the day. 1t is not wrong
to give light meal of mixed food,
warm in the morning. in the trough,
but such meal should be only one
fourth the quantity the hens require.
They should 60 away from the trough
unsatisfied, and should then seek their
food, deriving it grain by grain, en-
gaging in healthy exercise in order
to obtain it, and in such circumstances
the food will be passed into the giz-
zard slowly and be better digested.
Gradually the hen will accumulate suf-
ficient food to provide for the night,
going on the roost with full crop,
where she can leisurely forward it
from the crop to the gizzard. Feeding
soft food leads to many errors on the
part of the beginner, causing him to
overfeed and pamper his hens, and by
it they will reach a condition that is
entirely antagonistic to laying. 1t is
much better to feed hard grains only
than to feed from trough, unless the
soft food is carefully measured. A
quart of mixed, ground grain, moist
ened and in crumbly condition,
should be sufficient for forty hens as a
"starter" for the morning, but two
quarts of whole grain should then be
scattered in litter for them to seek
and secure for themselves. Farm and

A Topsy .Turvy Junk.

There are three Chinese junks in
San Francisco Bay engaged in the
shrimping trade. A reporter who Wis
tied one of them, the Lund Sune,
found everything arranged contrary
to nature, according to Western no.
tions. The planking Of the deck ran
athwart ship, the anchor hung over
the stern, the rudder had a large num-
ber of diamond shaped holes in it,
and the batwing-like sail was hoisted
with an uncouth windlass, though it
would be quicker and easier to give
the halyards few pulls. Then the
ribs came up a few inches above the
deck and the side planking ran beyond
the stern, as if the ship carpenter had
forgotten to come back with saw
and finish his job. Nevertheless, the
captain of the Lund Sune regards her
as a clipper, and wants to enter in tho
regatta. New Orleans Picayune.

Sleep and Insomnia.

0leep IL greater mystery Cn0n IN
somnia. We hear much Of the latter
state in these days. But it ia more
wonderful that we sleep SO we'll than
that we are occasionally wakeful. We
hear more OF sleeplessness than our
forefathers did. It is remarkable
fact that in scarcely any OF the older
textbooks of practice of physic is
there any formal notice of insomnia
per Sc. In later works, and especially
in those devoted to treatment, the
subject Of insomnia does not receive
considerable attention. And every
now and again the sleeplessness of
great man in the world of science or
in that of politics reminds us that
eminence has its troubles, and of a
sort which seldom affects the poor
man. It is probable that this evil OF
wakefulness is more common than it
used to be. The excitements and es-
pecially the worries of life multiply.
Many Of the arrangements of society
are of q nature to drive away sleep.
Even the pleasures of life are so taken
by many as to rob them of one of the
greatest pleasures of allan eight
hours sound sleep; for we maintain
that this is what everybody should aim
at. 1t may seem long time to spend
third of ones life in sleep. But il
the other two-thirds are used we'll,
there is little cause for blame. No
rule for all can be laid down; but it

TACTICS UP TO DATE.
Exhibition OF Mansuvers by the
Philadelphia's Crew.

The usual weekly shore drill Of
the crew OF the U. s. flagship Phila-
delphia took place this morning at
the grounds OF the Kamehameha
School, Pslama, and was witnessed
by a large number OF ladies and gen.
tlemen, including Prince Joseph OF
Bsttenburg (the brother OF Prince
Henry who married the Princess
Beatrice, daughter Of Queen Vic
toria), who is at present paying a
visit to the Paradise OF the Pacific
capital. The battalion landed from
the big white cruiser about a. M,
and arrived at the grounds at 8
o'clock. After a short rest the ma
neuvers were commenced by series
OF riot drill movements in quick
time. These We're followed by vari-
Gus marching movements introduc.
ing formations in fronts of fours,
company and column, and all Of
which were executed with remark
able precision and unison OF action.
Lieut.. r. X. Ingersoll, who had COM
mand Of the battalion, aud OF whom
it may be said, en- PEASANT, is an sup

sary orders for an attack and the
whole detail OF hard. fought battle
was gone through with, the "charge"
showing the good spirit with which
the officers and men entered into
the movement, and much to the
pleasure OF the spectators. A short
rest ensued, after the bloodless bat
tie, during which Prince Joseph
found opportunity to highly COM
pliment Lieutenant Ingersoll upon
the ability shown in the compliance
with the many complex orders given,
rejecting very creditably upon both
officers and men. A bayonet drill
and series Of battalion movements
closed the exercises, after which the
battalion marched past" the Prince

tending him, and then came into

as though the government is

Here are some figures over
which you may ponder if you
are interested in wire fences:
The European wire which we
carry in stock has been tested
at the Iron Works and shows a
tensile strength of 276O pounds.
The galvanizing passed through
all the tests it is possible to put
it and shows that it is as near
perfect as it is possible to make
it. The American wire we re-
ceived a week or more ago,
land it is the best to be OBJ
tanned in the States, was tested
at the Iron Works and shows
a tensile strength of about 700
pounds. These figures show
which is the best wire, and
which you should use in build
ing the Jones Locked Fence

The growing desire on the

the demand that has been made
upon us for the Dietz Oil Stove.
The people who have been US

six months are so we'll pleased
with them that they recon-
mend them to their friends.
The fact that they cannot ex-
plode is a point in their favor;
economy of fuel is another,

a stove they can cook with

other. Every one who uses a

it is the best they ever had.

A Steamer and a Schooner
in Collision.
Five Of the Twenty-Five Schooner
Passengers Drowned.
Steamer Was Not Injured-Rescued
Passengers Were Landed.

NEW YORK, July 23.-The Norwegian
steamer Terrier arrived here this morning
from Demerara, whence she sailed July
II. Captain Berg reports that ne left
Georgetown, Demerara, July Il, and after
leaving the harbor discharged the pilot
until s: 80 p. m., of that date, when
schooner was sighted close on to the
starboard bow. Captain Berg watched
the schooner's movements closely, and at
the same time hauled his steamers wheel
to port, expecting that the schooner
would keep on her course. The schooner
continued TO do so for time, when she
suddenly changed her course, running
free directly across the Terriers bow.
Before the steamer could be stopped or
her headway checked, she struck the
schooner on the port side, abaft the fore
rigging, sinking her almost instantly.
She proved to be the British schooner
Eagle of Barbados for Demerara.
Twenty-four persons were saved, five
being lost, consisting OF two men, two
women and one child. Immediately on the
vessels coming together, several OF the
schooners passengers and crew scrambled
on board the Terrier, others were hauled
on board the Terrier, and others were
hauled on board by the steamers s crew
with tow lines, which were thrown TO
them by those on board the Terrier. The
steamers two boats were manned and
lowered as quickly as possible.
When the collision occurred, the
schooner's master was one OF the first to
abandon his vessel and did nothing
whatever to assist in saving his passen-
gers or crew. Among the passengers
were several women and children. He
apparently lost all self-control and paced
the steamers deck, sobbing, moaning and
wringing his hands, bemoaning the loss
of his vessel, without making the least
attempt to save the women and chill dren.
Soon after the collision, the sea was a
mass of floating wrecKage from the
sunken schooner. A vigilant search was
kept up for some time, in the hope OF
finding some of the five missing ones
| clinging or floating TO some OF the float
| ing wreckage, but nothing was seen oil
| them. The Terrier returned to Demarara
| and landed the "A survivors. A superficial
| examination was made as TO the damage
| to the steamer. 1t was found that two OF
| the bow plates were bent, besides some
slight damage about the forecastie deck.
| Otherwise no serious damage was sus-
| tanned.
The Eagle was owned at and hailed
| from Barbados, and traded between that
| port and Demarara, carrying mail and
| passengers.
