The regular jury was exhausted last
Saturday and a yenire was issued for
twenty-five men which was exhausted
by 10 o'clock yesterday and the sheriff
was ordered to bring thirty-six more.
This case has attracted good deal
of attention and it was supposed that a
Jury would be secured il at all with
great difficulty. Nearly all the Jurors
when questioned said they had read
something of the case in the Eagle bur
most of them thought they could rem
der a verdict in accordance with the
evidence and law in spite OF that fact
The law governing the selection OF
Jurors to serve in criminal cases makes
it hard to secure jurors who read the
newspapers and keep posted.
County Attorney Davis insisted that
that he would find twelve men to serve
On this jury who do not read the Eagle
and he hoped they would possess suf-
ficient intelligence to make good jurors.
Dr. Mackenzie sat by the side of his
counsel, w. Z. Stanley. and with him
were his wife and 12-year-old daughter.
Mrs. Mackenzie is modest appearing
woman with dark hair and black eyes
and seems to be not more than % or 30
years old, and the two people OF all the
crowd in the court house showing most
interest in DR.. Mackenzie's case are
this kind hearted little woman and her
12-year-old daughter.
Will Smith sets inside the railing an
interested spectator. And the result OF
Dr. Mackenzie'S case will have much
TO do with his case. He persists that

Several members of the committee ex-
pressed the opinion that Wichita ought
to have a normal school, but they did
not know anything about Garfield, but
if it was any where near the building
that it is represented that the state
ought to own it.
The committee say that they do not
intend to buy any old shells and they
have the state architect, Davis, along
who will make his report in regard to
the value of the buildings.

NATIVE PLUMS.

Within the last few years native

market demand for them is limited,

Pratqu8 Americana is well adapted as

DDS of planting and cultivation do not
differ from those used with the com
mon pluEns except that mixed planting
must be followed in order to secure the
fertilization of many of the native
plums. Native plums are not particu-
lar as to soil, although extremes in
sand, clay and muck should be avoided.

of foliage at the expense of productive

advise rolling or dragging, to finish up
with. Either process will pack the
ground around the seed and cause
them to germinate quicker and make
early growth, which is very desirable
for a winter pasture. If it is found
that the stand is too thick, then a

DIGEsTIBIL1TY OF HAY.

In the consumption of hay and clover
there is, perhaps, under ordinary cir
cumstances, less proportion digested
and so rendered available in the growth
or fattening of animals than is gener
ally supposed. This has been pretty
clearly demonstrated in series of di-
gestion experiments that have been
conducted at the Maine station. The
composition of the hay is given as fol-
lows: Protein compounds, "a; crude
fibre, % SO; nitrogen free extract, A, Al
and fat 67. Of the above there is,
under ordinary circumstances digested
protein compounds, 81; crude fibre,
II 4; nitrogen free extract. % 9, and
fat, IA.
By the above it appears that only
about one half of the nutritive prin-
ciples Of timothy are digested. In the
case of clover hay the result is very
nearly the same, the only difference of
any amount being in the fact that
clover hay furnishes about twich as
much of protein compounds as the
timothy. Assuming that 3,875 pounds
of timothy is cut from an acre, there
will be digested 1, ,O46 pounds of protein
matter, while from an acre of 4, O75
pounds of clover hay would be digested
238 2 pounds of protein, with but little
difference in the fat and nitrogen free
extract. AS the protein contains the
substance for animal tissue, this is i'm
portant in the feeding of growing and
young animals.

realize now the desirability of sowing

long been notorious for the low grades

supply their customers, and the pres

ers is a practical lesson that will have
