Poultry Rune.


Farmers are not, as are city people,
restricted for range for their poultry.
Therefore the birds should always
have large ranges. The range should
be large enough so that the grass will
not be eaten off. 1t might be thought
that this word of advice is not needed.
yet we know that it is. We have our
selves seen farms where the poultry
run was SO limited that the earth was
bare Of verdure all the time. Beyond
the run in mind was a grass field that
should have been made to contribute to
the sustenance of the poultry. There
is another point about having grass
run for the poultry SO large that the
grass cannot be eaten Off That is.
that grass is cheaper food for poul-
try, as a part ration, than almost any
other. The grass not only is CHEAP
food, but healthfu1 food, and one that
seems to stimulate egg production. The
blades of grass attract insects, such as
grasshoppers, and thus contribute to
the supply Of fesh-food, so much liked
by poultry Wire for fencing costs lit
tie; therefore there is no reason why
large poultry run should not be an
accessory to every farm.

drainage should be sufficient to take

ANOTHER BREAK IN LEYEE.
TWenty-foOt CreVasSe Reported
Below Baton Rouge-Danger at
New Orleans.

New Orleans, La, April PA break
in the levee twenty feet wide is reported
at Burton's sawmill just below Baton
Rouge.
New Orleans. La, April 24.--The river
has been stationary around the 19-fOot
mark for three days ROW. and while the
strain has been terrific it was nothing
in comparison to the anxiety as to what
the river is going to do next. Scientific
experts frankly admit that they are I'M
certain as TO the whereabouts of the crest
of the flood waves. Several of them
predict that the danger period will NOT
be over for thirty days yet.
In the meantime the constant warfare
day and night is beginning to tell upon
the weaker nerves. The effect is appar-
ent in the frequent attempts to cut the
levees and the redoubled vigilance on the
part of the defenders. The attempt to
blow up the Bonne Care leyee with dy-
Mantle was probably the work of some
crank whose mind gave way from terror,
although it is blamed to the city of New
Orleans.
A crevasse there would carry off an
ocean of water into the lakes and thence
to the gulf. Another favorite and sus-
pected levee-cutting spot is at Socolas
canal, about sixty miles below the city,
where the water would have a barren
stretch of four miles to reach Lake Bor-
gogne with q fall of about eighteen feet
to facilitate its progress.

IT WAS NOT TO BE.
"A Crosse Woman Wanted Her
Husbands Body Kept Until
She DIED.

La Crosse. Wis. April 24.-The irony
of fate was strikingly exhibited yester-
day in the case Of John Brendaline, who
resided at the corner of Eighth and Hood
streets. Just fifteen days ago Brenda
line died from the effects of old age. His
aged wife was critically i'll at the time
and she requested that the body of her
husband be kept until her death, in order
that they might be buried together. The
relatives endeavored to carry out her re-
quest and Brendaline's body was en-
balmed.
Thus fourteen days passed and the
body was still unbured, the aged wife
continuing to hold on to life. Neighbors
protested against the unusual proceeding,
the interference of the peace officers was
invoked and considerable ado was made
about the affair, but the family turned a
deaf ear to all eXpostulatiOns, holding
that they had a perfect right to keep the
body, and exhibiting a satisfactory state
ment from the undertaken in charge.
The body of the old man was kept for
fourteen days. while the relatives await
ed him to be joined in the spirit land by
his faithful wife But she held on TO
life tenaciously for one so old and ILL., and
yesterday the relatives gave up their plan
Ct holding the body Of the husband long
er. Arrangements were all made for the
interment at o'clock when, just a cou-
pie of hours before that time, the wife
died
The body Of the wife could not be bur-
led at once and it was considered unde-
Sirable to keep that of her husband long
er. so he was buried at the hour set and
the wife's interment will take place on
Sunday afternoon.
