What to Feed Hens.

Green bones are. not used as extern
siyely as they should be, because grain
can be obtained with less difficulty and
at low cost: but as egg.producing mate.
rial, the bone is far superior to grain
nor does the bone really cost more than
grain i'll some sections. The cutting OF
the bone into available sizes is now ren-
dered an easy matter, as the bone cutter
is within the reach of all. Bones fresh
from the butcher have more or less meat
adhering, and the more of such meat the
better, as it will cost no more per pound
than the bone, while the combination of
both meat and bone is almost Il perfect
food from which to produce eggs.
If the farmer can get two extra eggs
per week from each hen in winter he
will make a large profit. We may add
that it the product of each hen can be
increased one egg per week only in win
ter. that one egg will pay for all the
food she can possibly consume, and it
therefore pays to feed the substances
that will induce the hens to lay If the
hens are consuming food, and yet are
producing no eggs, they will cause loss
to their owner; and this happens every
winter on large number of farms. The
hens receive plenty of food, but not of
the proper kind.
"A pound OF cut green bone is sufficient
for sixteen hens one day. which means
that l cent will pay for that number of
fowls. If one quart of grain be fed at
night to sixteen hens, and one pound of
bone i'll the morning, it should be ample
for each day land the majority of fam
clers do) we find in winter. In summer
only the bone need be given. Such a
diet provides fat, starch, nitrogen, phos-
pilates, lime and all the substances re-
CURED to enable the hens to lay eggs. AS
an egg is worth about cents in winter,
1T is plain that it is cheaper to feed
bone than grain, as the greater number
of eggs not only reduces the total cost.
but increases the profit as well.
The bone cutter is as necessary t., the
poultryman as his feed mill. 1t enables
him to use an excellent and cheap food,
and gives him profit where he might
otherwise be compelled to suffer loss.
1t is claimed that the bone cutter pays
for itself in eggs, and really costs moth
ing. Bones are now one of the staple
articles of food for poultry. and no ra-
tons should have them omitted. They
are food, grit and lime. all combined in
one, and the hens will leave all other
foods to receive the cut bone. If cut
ish such excellent food, while turkeys
grow rapidly on it. To meet with sue
cess requires the use of the best ma
terials, and green bone beats all other
substances as food for poultry. There
is quite Il difference between the green,
fresh bone, rich i'll it's juices. as it comes
from the butchers. and the hard, dry
bone which has lost it's succulence The
value Of all foods depends largely upon
their digestibility, and the more this is
provided for the greater the saving of
food and the more economical the FRO
duction of eggs.-Poultry Keeper.

The Democratic steering committee Of
the Senate, in rearranging the minor
ity representation on the committees,
paid Senator Faulkner high but well
deserved compliment in assigning him
to a place on the Judiciary committee,
with such veteran statesmen and emf
nent lawyers as Senators Hoar, of
Massachusetts,; Platt, of Connecticut;
Davis, of Minnesota; Lindsay. OF Ken
lucky. and Gray, of Delaware. No
better evidence of the esteem in which
he is held by his fellow Democrats of
the Senate could be afforded than this
assignment of the West Virginia Sem
ator to the judiciary committee. For,
while this committee has not taken up
much Of the time of the Senate with
bills reported from it, nor cut much or
a figure in the public eye in spectacle
lar way, it is regarded as second in I'M
portance to no other committee on the
entire list. For this reason member
ship on it is eagerly sought, and those
who obtain the honor must stand very
high in the esteem of their colleagues.
Senator Faulkner is the youngest man
on the committee with the exception OF
Chiffon, of Texas.

Washington, December 16.-Part Of
the business which has brought Repub-
lican State Chairman Dawson, Marshal
Thompson, Deputy Marshal Elliott and
Revenue Collector White to Washing
ton in the last few days was, it is now
said, to find out how Senator Elkins
stood on the question of an extra ses-
sion of the State Legislature. The
Senator is understood to have informed
his callers with emphasis that he did
not favor an extra session. Another
question discussed by the State leaders
with the Senator was that of civil SER
vice reform The Senator's visitors
told him that the feeling against the
civil service reform law among the
rank and file of the Republicans in
the State was very strong, and init
mated it would be wise for him in any
action he might be called upon to take
in the Senate on the civil service ques-
tion to bear that fact in mind
Capt. Rathbone, of Writ county, can
didate for the inspectorship of steam
boats for the Seventh district, the
place now filled by Capt. Chancellor,

ton, and hopes that the President will
send his nomination to the Senate be-
fore the end of this week Capt. Chan
cellor has not been in office only about
three years, but Capt. Rathbone's back
ers believe the President will make the
change without delay nevertheless.
Congressman Dorr has introduced in
the House a resolution calling on the
Secretary of the Treasury for the re-
port of the committee which recently
investigated the affairs of the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing. This re-
port has never been made public, and
the Republicans believe it contains
matter which will prove damaging to

Parsons, w. Va, December 16.-The
jury in the Eastman case returned a
verdict of guilty of involuntary man.
slaughter, at 5:O4 o'clock this afternoon,
after being out just three hours.
The verdict, though a practical VIC
tory for the defense, was unexpected.
The majority of the people looked for
either an acquittal or hung jury.
While they were celebrating only
two ballots were taken, the first stand
ing six for acquittal and six for MUIR
der in the first degree. They effected
a compromise after a considerable dis
cussion.
Judge Holt Immediately ordered a re-
cess until o'clock this evening.
Eastman was at once surrounded by
his friends, who warmly congratulated
him and grasped him cordially by his
hands. His equaminity was not in the
least disturbed by these demonstrations
Of friendship and, after thanking them
he retired with the sheriff to the Jail to
await the sentence of the Court.
Shortly before o'clock the court
room began to fill with people. But one
dim lamp furnished illumination for the
dingy, close apartment, and the people
arriving with lighted lanterns made the
scene interesting and strange. The
mayor, when the verdict was publicly
announced, fearing demonstration on
behalf of Col. Eastman ordered all OF
the saloons closed at o'clock
Judge Holt came into court at 7:30
o'clock. The crowd was breathless
with expectation, waiting to hear the
erdict. when the judge coolly ordered
be prisoner remanded to the custody
the sheriff and court adjourned until
o'clock tomorrow morning.
When court opened this morning Mr..
Davis, the last Of the prosecution
counsel, arose to make the CLOSING
speech. Before he began, Mr.. Daily,
for the Defense objected to further ar
gument by the prosecution, but his
objection was overruled. Mr.. Davis
then proceeded and made an eloquent
speech, in which he dissected the test1-
mony on both sides, winding up with
request for conviction.
A large number of instructions were
offered by counsel on both sides Judge
Holt returned defendants counsel their
instructions on self-defense, but add
ed modification destroying the in
stFuction entirely, whereupon Col
Eastham's counsel retired for consulta-
ton, and as the result thereof directed
Col. Arnett to argue in favor of strik-
ing out the modification. The court
then struck out the notifications and
made feasible the defendants plea of
self-defense. This change of the judge
was much of surprise to the defend
ants counsel and of decided benefit to
their case. Without the change the
case of the defense, so far as the judge
and his instructions were concerned,
was hopeless.
Involuntary manslaughter is a mis-
demeanor, and is punishable by a fine
not exceeding $500, or Imprisonment
not less than six months nor more than
one year in the county jail, or both.
