GRANITE FALLS, Mimi, Jan. H.
The general January term Of the dis

was commenced this morning. The
civic calendar is the longest for many
years, and embraces some cases Of i'm

one for attempted murder. 1t is stat

other things he said:
1t Is your business to suggest to
the law makers the way out Of the
difficulty, to put forward simplicity in
stead OF complexity, to conform that
system to the law of finance I am

financial reform in this country, and

Flint Corn for Turkeys.

Successful Rhode Island growers as
a rule feed their turkeys from start to
finish on northern white flint corn,
which they grow themselves. They
take great pains to use nothing but
we'll seasoned old corn, because they
have found that new corn causes bowel
trouble. which is more to be feared in
a turkey than any other fowl, and is
liable to be fatal. Diarrhoea seems to
be more prevalent among turkeys
than any other disease, and a
bird that gets sick is very apt to die.
Foraging in a field of green oats may
give them diarrhoea and cause much
loss. Turkeys not only like northern
flint corn best and fatten best on it,
but it makes their flesh more tender,
Juicy and delicious. That given the
little ones is coarsely ground and mix
ed with sweet or sour milk, or made
into bread that is moistened with milk.
This is gradually mixed with cracked
corn, which, when they are about eight
weeks old. is fed clear or mixed with
sour milk. In the fall whole corn is
given.-Ex.

picturesque old rascal with an appetite,
and that's something I haven't had for
about six years. You're welcome to
the handout, but when it comes to lis
tening to an after-dinner speech from
you, draw the line. You are not the
Kind of Chauncey M. Depew I want to
hear. Get along!"

A Martyr to Melons.

The melon crop was short this year,
and southwest Georgia farmer who
mad practically "cornered'' it in his
neighborhood had suffered seriously
from the depredations of some of the
hungry colored brethren. So he gave
1t out that he had poisoned his mel
ons, and after the news went forth he
ceased to miss them.
Night after night an old negro who
lived near the finest melon patch had
gazed at their green sides with hungry
eyes, but the thought of the poison kept
him hungry still.
One moonlight night, however. hts
appetite got the best of him. He look
ed in the direction of the melons long
and earnestly; then, shoulderirs a
sack, he started off.
'In de name er goodness, Rufus,
whar you gwine?" asked his wife.
The old man turned, pointed to the
melon patch and said, slowly and SOL
emily:
"Im a-gwine whar dem melons is!''
"But-dey's poisoned"
II know dey is! But I'm gwine ter
take my death. Pray fer me!"-At-
