A SERIOUS RUN,
The sub-Treasury at san Francisco II
Called Upon for Much Gold.

The sub-Treasury at san Francisco II
Called Upon for Much Gold.
San Francisco. Oct. 7.-The sub
treasury has Just pulled through an
other serious run which threatened TO
annfhilate Its gold reserve and leave
II without a dollar with which to re-
deem the perfect avalanche Of green
backs that poured In over the counter.
Timely aid came from Chicago and
other sources and when the outpouring
of gold finally stopped the $4,000. 900 of
a few months ago. despite the fire.
quent additions that have been made
during that period. was reduced to a
bare $4,000. 900. For once the sub-treas-
ury had on hand more greenbacks
than It wanted. In two weeks time
$40, 900 900 worth OF them were dumped
over the counters and the gold they
represented withdrawn. There was
something like $1,000 900 In gold In the
vaults when the run commenced. Chi
cago was appealed TO for aid and sent
Sc. 900. and an equally large amount
was secured from the mint while the
received from Australia were coined
into double eagles at the mint and
carted to the sub-treasury. Only $4,000
600 OF the entire amount was left after
the furry was over. That has since
been increased by the deposit OF more
than s1.00o.OO0 upon which greenbacks
have been withdrawn and there Is ev-
cry Indication that the furry is over.
Much of the gold withdrawn went be-
yond the mountains.

SERENE CONFIDENCE
W. ]. Bryan Will Be Elected by the
Largest Popular Majority.
MAGNIFICENT VICTORY
Result OF a Canvass Made by the
Dem ocratio Committee Re-
publican sluffs and Coer-
cion Fall Heavily.

Chicago, Oct. 27.-Mr. Campau OF the
democratic national committee receiv-
ed to-day telegraphic reports from
each state chairman In the union CIV
ing estimates based on the latest In
formation as TO how the different
states would record their votes one
week from Tuesday. This Is the last
formal report that will be made by
the chalrmen OF the different state
committees.
Mr.. Campau said: THE democratic
national committee awaits the results
OF next weeks election with serene
confidence. William j. Bryan will be
elected by the largest popular majority
given any president in a quarter OF
century. He will have more than 800
votes In the electoral college. Reports
from the middle western states show
the effect Of his wonderful campaign
ing tour through them. His majority
will be Increased by many thousands
as a result OF his great journey. ILL
nois. Michigan. Indiana. Iowa and Min
nesota are absolutely safe and our
chances Of success In Ohio and Wis
consln are very flattering. The ever
rising tide of enthusiasm for the great
cause and the great leader OF the COM
mon people will sweep those states
along with their sisters already won.
Senator German, one OF the most
astute political leaders OF the union,
guarantees Maryland. Our reports
from Kentucky are that the republi-
can monopoly and democratic treason
will be outvoted by more than 10000
The desperate and despotic effort to
coerce and buy the American people
came To n dismal and humlllating fall
ure. The solid South and the silver
West will join hands In impregnablc
alliance at the polls. The great Mid
die West is with them In an lnvincible
union. Our intrepid leader Is sure to
get a magnificent victory. These states
will give their votes for him without a
shadow Of doubt.

but the peoples cause has never
ceased In Its march to victory. The
bluster of the republican national
committee claiming $50 electoral votes
is shown In the inclusion In their esti-
mates OF such states as Texas. Idaho.
Utah and Montana, where the major
lty for Bryan can only be measured
by cons .dering almost the whole voting

Mr.. Campau gave the following re-
ports Of the different state chairmen
showing that the confidence Of the ma
tional committee Is shared by the
managers OF the different states:

The natural food of fowls II com.
posed Of seeds, insects and grass. In
the domestic condition we allow grain,
grass and meat. Turkey and chick
ems drink very little water when feed
ing, and even ducks and geese resort
to water when feeding sometimes, in
order to wash their bills more than to
DRINK, says the Poultry. Keeper. This
brings up the question Of the propriety
of feeding soft food. It is known that
ground grain absorbs. . large volume
of water, and when. the mixture is ap-
parently dry, quite a'large proportion
of water exists in it, though more SO
when the mixture Is very moist and
sloppy. 1t is not beneficial water. As
tho results are sometimes Injurious,
bowel disease and Indigestion prevail
ing. 1t is better 10 feed all food dry if
possible, and keep a trough full of wa
ter where the fowls can take what
quantity they desire. Even ground
food may be given in q dry condition.
the different substances used being
thoroughly mixed and placed in .
trough. When chicks are fed they
have corn meal moistened several times
a day, and bowel disease rqluts, sim.
ply because too much water1s forced
upon them in the food. The fowls
never resort to wet food when they
can get dry kinds, and this is matter
that deserves attention. Southern

1t is usually customary to measure

weighing the crops annually grown
thereon. Can it not be done by chem

ton piece of very poor soil was taken

square laid off. These plats were
used, first to determine the best va
riety of COW peas adapted to the reno
walton of soil, and. second, to test by
analysis. of soil and products the
measure of the increase. The follow
