That there Is danger In feeding oats
10 the hens In the morning when they
are hungry, M the fowls will al their
crops full Of the grain, will then drink
water and In a short time become crop
bound. As soon as the hens are found
In this condition they should be taken
In hand and some Of the oats h
worked up out OF the crops. The best
time 10 feed oats Is Mt night, after the
hens have been picking all day. They
will not then be very hungry and will
not eat enough TO hurt them. Oats are
a well balanced food for poultry, and
II Il were not for this danger they
could be fed still more extensively.
The oats may be soaked before being
fed, but In this case there IN n danger
that all will not be eaten, and part
become sour. The fowls whose crops
become bound are more frequently
old fowls. After one difficulty Of this
kind another is likely to occur.
That the time Is now at hand when
we will want eggs for setting and 80
should mate the pullcts and cockerels.
A rooster may be mated with only two
or three hens, but In such case the
male should be allowed with the
females only an hour or two each day.
II he Il 10 be left In there should be at
least ten hens. This number Is prob
ably best, but even fifteen or twenty
will give fertile eggs with vigorous
male, Some say as many as forty
hens may be mated with one rooster,
but this number is too high TO be
rislSed usually. As TO time Of mating
before the eggs are wanted for setting,
fifteen days will be sufficient. That
Is, u the eggs are wanted the first day
OF March, put the rooster with the
hens not later than Feb. 10. Then
after the breeding season take the
rooster out, as he only worries the
hens and Is OF no value in egg produe.

Literary Note.

The relation which price bears to
quality in literature is made obscure
by the Christmas COSMOPOLITAN. Sto,
ries by Rudyard Kipling, VIM. Dean
Howells, Mrs. Spencer Trask, Mrs. Bur
ton Harrison, and Albion w. Tourgee,
are interspersed with poetry by Sir Ed
win Arnold, Edmund Clarence Sted-
man, and James Whitcomb Riley, while
through the number are scattered il
Illustrations by such famous artists as
Remington, Toche, Reinhart, Turner,
Van Setback, Gibson, and Stevens. A
series of portraits of beautiful women
of society illustrate an article on The
Relations Of Photography to. Art; a

of the series OF Great Passions of His

already contributed, and half dozen
others equally as interesting, 90 to

tive body, and that its ordinances and
acts must be construed by themselves,
on their face, as passed, l deny that
the article of the State Constitution
and the chapter of the said Code you
refer to contravene the 14th or any
other amendment to the Constitution
of the United States.
1t is full and sufficient answer to all
charges made by you in reference to
said alleged violations, to state: That
said Article XII of the Constitution Of
the State of Mississippi was by the
Constitutional Convention referred to
its Judiciary Committee with special
as to the validity of said Article, and
said Committee, composed of Demo
Gratis and Republicans unanimously
reported that said Article XII violated
neither the spirit, letter nor intent Of
and Amendments thereto.
l affirm that the Constitutional Con-
vention of the State of Mississippi was
not held in pursuance of any political
conspiracy, but was composed of duly
elected representatives of all the po-
litical parties, and that the result of
its labors, as embodied in the Consti-
tuition, which you attack, meets with
the hearty endorsement and approval of
a large majority of enlightened and
patriotic Mississippians, irrespective
of political faith or party utilization.
Responding to your averments of
propositions of law affirm:
l. That you cannot establish that,
because of any Irregularities in the
election land l deny any, the result Of
my election would have been changed,
and therefore, as uniformly held in
Mississippi and elsewhere in the courts,
and as emphasized in the contest of
Lawrence VS.. Sypher in the House of
Representatives of the Add United
States Congress-, your contest must
fail.
2. That the qualifications Of voters
belongs for determination, to the
States and not to Congress, except, I'M
der the 18th amendments of the Con-
stitution of the United States, applica-
BILE to all the States alike, no discrimi-
nation can be made on account of
"race, color or previous condition of
servitude."
| 3. That the Fundamental condi-
tions" upon the re-admission of Mis-
sissippi into the Union in 1869, if they
were designed to reach further than to
prevent race discrimination as above,
common to all the States, were of no
force or effect, because all States, new
and old, must be equal in power and
rights. "Unequal States" is contra
diction of terms, and so it was deter
mined by the Congress of the United
States on the admission of Missouri.
Congress may admit States, but only
States, and, if it admits them, they
have all the powers of the original
States. A State cannot consent, on
admission into the Union, to come in
with powers inferior to the original
States, and, if this could be, Mississip-
pi never so consented. This particu-
lar constitution was vigorously as
saulted in the United States Senate,
but no Senator made an assault be-
cause of violation of the Fundamental
conditions"

MALCUM DOTS.

arrived, to his establishment, he was
presented with young couple to have
the knot tied. After celebrating after
his fashion, he pronounced Mr.. Will

1t seems matter of consequence
that nearly all the young people of our

Will some one with strong influence

to at least get the consent of their pa

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN ?
Fact or Fiction About Two Great Fair
Awards.

A newspaper paragraph denounces
as ''false" the claim of baking pow
der company to an award at the
Worlds Fair. Whom can it mean
Certainly. not DR.. Prices. Why
Because, as the records show, DIR.
Prices exhibited. competed and re-
ceived the highest award, both at Chi
cago and the California Midwinter
Fair. The award in California includ-
ed Gold Medal. The official examiners
pronounced it the strongest, the pur-
est, the most wholesome and efficient
of all the baking powders. It's title
to confidence is unquestioned.
Can it be the manufactures of a
New York powder, fictitiously labelled
absolutely pure" who are making
'false" claims That would be strange
indeed, inasmuch as they we're not
even considered in the awards.
Was it Ammonia in the New York
powder that prevented it's makers
from competing If not, what ?

The New Game Of Cards Which IL Inter.
esting Eastern Society.
"Desperation' is a game of cards
that is best described as q continuity Of
sequences, regardless of suit. It is
played with three full packs Of 50 cards
each, and the most convenient number
Of players is 10, but eight or ten per.
sons will find it a very delightful way
to spend an evening. In a party of la.
dies and gentlemen the better way is for
the n six to challenge the other six
and then. sitting in couples at the table.
alternating the play.
The first duty is to select a banker,
who should also act as umpire for the
evening. The banker or dealer should
then shuttle the three packs Of cards to-
gether very thoroughly and count two
NESTS, " Of 80 cards each, the one to be
known as ladies nest" the other as
gentlemen's nest" placing them at
opposite ends of the table. Each player
then receives a hand of six cards, dealt
one at a time. These hands are placed
face down directly in front of each
player.
The play is from the banker to the
left, and each player turns up q card,
and the play continues until an ace is
turned. The privilege of turning the
top card of center nests is taken by the
first player of each side. When an ace
is turned up. it is placed in the center
of the table. and the fun begins. The
purpose Of the game is to exhaust the
center nests, and the game is won by
the side exhausting their nest first. The
sequences in the center Of the table are
ace high to deuce, while the side So.
quences or partners hand are high OF
low. So that each partner plays on the
center sequences, his or his partner
sequences and his own, in effect play.
ing seven hands in a 10 hand game.
The fun of the game is caused by the
penalty connected Herewith, which is;
No player is permitted by word, look,
sign, motion or suggestion to indicate
to the person playing any play or mis-
play possible on penalty Of FORGETTING
the play of said player and having the
chance of a sequence pass to the mex
player at table, which would naturally
be an opponent.
There is a great amount Of sport il
this game for a social evening, and it il
very popular in the eastern cities. l
