aBEloriousstruggle, full ofsuperb playing,
the score was 1910 in favor OF Lafay-

Virginia University drew.it Is not. to be
assumed that the team made poor
showing. Such Is far from the truth.
On the other hand. the small score OF
Lafayette makes the outcome n victory

Polk Miller's reputation as a sports
man and splendid wing shot maks
him popular with all the lovers of the
Rod and Gun Wherever he goes, he is
called on by the hunting fraternity
and made welcome. He was in Raleigh
three days this week, and Col. Odds
made his mouth water by exhibiting
a BEAUTIFUL string of snipe which he
had Just killed a short distance from
the town. On seeing the gray beauties.
Mr.. Miller exclaimed, why did you not
take me out with you? The Col. felt
a little chagrined that he had failed TO
do so, but told him that he should en-
Joy .snipe on toast" for his breakfast
next morning. Mr.. Miller made his
order for breakfast rather light in
view of the delightful prospect ahead,
for he saw Col. Olds nodding TO the
waiter and looking towards Mr.. Miller
1t Just SO happened that seated along
side of him was a friend of Tom Reeds
from Maine, and the darkey came over
and handing him the tempting dish
said s'Boss, dere's a bird on toas, dat
Col. Olds sent YOU" The man from
Maine was very grateful, and told him
to convey his sincere thanks to the
gentleman. and to tell him that there
was nothing which he enjoyed SO mucn
as a snipe; it was his fayorlte bird!
Polk called the waiter and said, boy
bring me some scrambled aigs!"

that the fusion of Republicans and
Populists on an electoral ticket, each
party to vote for its electors, as per

that he has heard nothing of their
backing down. Maj. Guthrie and State

saving the same thing in substance.

About Women.

Are women, dear Lady Betty, writes
Linkman. in London Truth, angels in
disguise or angels in disgrace? This
appears to be a perpetual problem.
Let me then submit few observations
which may assist to solve it.
Women are always wishing that
men were true men are always wish
ing that women were new.
y woman generally makes the worst
Of a good husband; man generally
makes the best Of bad wife.
Any man with heart is attracted
toward those who suffer; any woman
with heart is attracted toward those
who prosper.
If YOU want To know woman, marry
her.
Many women can make every home
happy but their own.
Tell child that he is goud. a man
that he is great, and woman that she
is beautiful.
Vanity is woman's conscience.
Women are very good to eat, but
very bad TO digest
\ woman is strongest when she is
weakest Il man is weakest when he is
strongest.
A woman's love is bewildering, till
you get it, then it is embarrassing
Where there is will there is a
woman.

ATTACKED BY CROWS.

Joseph Deyo, residing near Den
ming, n. Y, was attacked by an army
of savage crows few mornings ago,
and compelled to run, after a severe
fight with them.
Deyo went to the woods at an early
hour to do some chopping, and had
scarcely begun to work when he saw
scores Of the birds flying toward him.
At first he paid little attention to
them, but they continued TO arrive in
large numbers, and finally swooped
down upon him, lighting upon his
head and shoulders and pecking him
with their sharp beaks.
The more Deyo fought and resisted
the birds the more desperate and
numerous they seemed to become,
until an immense cloud overshadowed
him and the sound of their "cawing"
was deafening. AT length, seeing that
the birds were too numerous and active
for him, Deyo dropped his axe and
rushed, coatless and hatless, from the
place, while blood issued from wounds
the birds had made on his head and
hands He had run some distance he
fore he succeeded in freeing himself
from his assailants entirely.
In company with neighbor he re-
turned to the spot and shot number
of the crows, frightening the rest
away. 1t is supposed that the birds
became desperate through hunger.

AROUND THE FARM.

Weed out the cullS.
Season all soft food with pinch of

Feed ground bone and crushed oys-

Give your sheep sunny southern
exposure protected from the north and

II you put down good supply Of
cabbage and other green stuff, as we
advised you in the fall, your fowls are
getting the benefit, and returning it TO
you in eggs.
If your roosting place is inclined to
be leaky, this cold weather has COW
cred the interior of the place with
white frost, which is not the most COM
Portable wall paper for a hen house
The man who got a nice lot of pull
let's last spring is gathering eggs now.
They lay more readily in cold weather
than the old hens. They take a rest
from laying oftener than old hens, but
do not rest so long.
Who can find winter setter Her
price is above rubies. She consider
I
eth nest and layeth in it; she ariseth
early and gathereth the grub, and
when she has finished her laying she
sitteth on the eggs, and hatcheth
brood. And the breeders of exhibi-
ton fowls rise up and bless her.
Three meals day in winter are too
many, for your fowls. Two is a plenty
if they are of the right sort. A good
warm mulch at night, for them to go
to roost on these cold nights, is a very
good thing, and that gives them the
grain in the morning, when they have
all day before them in which TO scratch
about among the litter.
The run of the market shows that
the big beeves are not in as active de-
mand as heretofore Twenty hundred
Founders brought as good prices per
100 pounds as the over-fat sixteen ard
eighteen hundred Founders. This in
dicates that consumers are no longer
willing to pay five cents per pound ex-
ira for fancy over choice cuts.
Charcoal is one of the most essen
tial articles of food to successful poul-
try farming. The best way to secure
this is to place an ear of corn in the
fire until it is entirely charred and
then shell off to fowls. You see an
eagerness developed and a healthy
condition brought about. All pale
combs will become bright red, and the
busy song which precedes laying will
be heard and the average yield Of eggs
greatly increased.
1t is possible to get three litters of
pigs from SOW in one year, but this
is little too hoggish. Some say it is
best to keep SOW breeding all the
time, as 1t will check the tendency to
take on fat 1t is our opinion that fat
"a reasonable amount of it's not
poison, even TO SOW, and does not
call for heroic doses of anti-fat. The
SOW will be better pleased in the end
with two families year, and what
pleases the SOW ought to please the
owner. The man should not be hog.
The question of selling eggs by
weight is still being agi;ated, and
there are many reasons for favoring
it though the advantages would not
be so great as many suppose. A small
egg like the Leghorn's. for instance,
has thin shell, fine and smooth,
while the large eggs like the Rocks,
Cochins and Bramahs have thick
course shell. If sold by weight the
purchaser would pay extra price for
egg shells, but would not get any more
weight of actual egg, that he could
use? Very little if any.
