Ice Formed Around His Neck.

The Harrodsburg Sayings is re-
sponsible for this one:
William Phillips came near losing
his life while on coon hunt few
nights ago. He was out with three
or four friends along the Hanging
Fork cliffs, about four miles from
town. The dogs found a big coon up
large tree, the limbs of which on
one side hung over the stream. Will
liam assembled the tree and had to GO
to the very top to reach the game on
it's high perch. The coon sprang
from the tree to the ground aud got
off some distance before it was sur
rounded by the yelping dogs and the
men hallooing at the top of their
voices. AS soon as this coon was killed
the dogs freed another a short dis
lance away, and in the excitement of
the hour Phillips was forgotten and
they went on home without him. LII
the meantime he had fallen from the
top of the tree into the water with his
legs so bruised and benumbed that
he could not stand up, 1t happened
near ford in the river, where the
water was only about three feet deep,
and as his comrades never heard his
cries, but went home, he sat there
through the long hours of the night,
his head just abovesthe surface of the
water and suffering from his many
bruises. A skift of ice had formed
around his neck, and in this plight
Messrs. Fount Myers and Robert
Bosley found him next morning at an
early hour as they happened to go by
the ford in the Hanging Fork. He
was more dead than alive, but IL re-
covering from the effects of his peril
GUS night, and is not much disposed
to talk about hunting coons.

Early Setting Hens.

March and April are the months
for setting hens. Chicks Matched
later than April will be too late to
furnish laying pullets in autumn.
Hens which set early are little
more difficult to manage because the
broody fever is not go strong as 1t is
in warm weather, but il carefully
handled they can usually be made to
stick to nest when changed. The
safest and easiest way is to give each
hen room by herself. At first the
nest should be filed with china nest
eggs, about dozen of them. These
she cannot break while getting accus-
toned to the change, and she is much
more likely to set than upon an
empty nest.
The nest should be carefully made
with good foundation of earth and
chat, covered with fine hay. A hen
often knows a poor nest better than
her owner does and win refuse to
adopt it. Place on the nest and fix a
covering of cloth over it to keep it
dark. With these conditions the hen
will usually accept the situation. After
day or two the genuine eggs may
be given her and the nest uncovered.
If she has separate room and is
given good supply of grain, water,
grit and dust bath, the hen will re-
quire but little more attention.-Burr
Knapp.

Sweet Potato Soil.

A sandy loan. rich in plant food, is
the best kind of soil. However good
crops have been raised on the black
loan Of the central west. On clay
land, stable manure, or any coarse OF
fertilizing material will be of benefit
The best results cannot be secured on
compact soil, Among the best
yielding varieties are Red Spanish,
Red Bermuda and Red Jersey. In
quality, however, these varieties are
not as good as the small yellow kinds
Sweet potatoes yield all the way from

BIMETALLIC :

Wednesday and Thursday, April 9th

ton of the League of Bimetallic
Clubs of the Ohio Valley.
Every silver club whether political,

pected. A railroad of one fare for
round trip has been given, and there
is no reason why KentuckY's delega-
tion should not be large and repre-
sentative. The movement has the
cordial endorsement of State Chair
man Johnston, Hon. Charles j. Bron-
ston, Judge P. Tarvin and others who
are cooperating with the League to
make the meeting an unqualified sue
cess. All requests for information
from Kentucky should be sent to

club is entitled to fifty delegates,
everyone should come as delegate if
possible.

Caring for the Broody Turkey.

Often large, roomy boxes can be
utilized very nicely for nesting pur-
poses, but the handiest and bestthing
that / evetsdsed is large sugar bar
rel securely blocked to prevent roll
ing, with the inside Uttered with
straw or forest leaves. l used these
barrels last spring with the very best
of success and shall try them again
this year. Last year every barrel l
put out attracted a turkey and she
laid her eggs and Matched her brood
therein.
The barrels serve an excellent pur-
pose in more ways than one. They
are not only cheap and easy to get,
but owing to their shape make an ex-
cellent protection for the turkey not
only from cold winds and rains, but
hot days as well. Very often one
finds two, and sometimes even three
turkeys, that will insist on the came
net, 80 that it often becomes quite pro-
voking before they can be broken up
so that only one will claim the nest.
When one uses barrels for meets and
such thing occurs, he has every
thing his own way; he has but to
lean a wide board across the end
leaving few inches at the top. BY
such an arrangement it is practically
impossible for a turkey on the outside
to get in, but the inmate of the barrel
has but to push the board over when
she wishes to walk out. When she
returns the board can be replaced,
The barrel next serves an excellent
purpose when the brood is Matching.
Securely fasten an eight or ten inch
board across the lower end so that the
little turkeys cannot squeeze out, but
be sure to leave sufficient space so
that the hen can leave or return if she
sees fit. With barrel so arranged
the poults are not apt to become either
chilled or lost and are very easily
caught whey. it is desired to move
them.-C.IP. Reynolds, Michigan, in

State Sues a Bank.

Attorney General Taylor on last

Circuit or Fiscal Court in the case OF
the State of Kentucky vs. the Bank OF
Louisville for $l,461.10, the amount
alleged to be due the State as interest
from recent dividends declared on the
$4,000 of stock owned by the State
in the bank. 1t is stated that the
bank has refused to pay such divi-
dends because of the failure of the
State to accept Reissue of $50 pei
share stock in lieu of the present $l0C
shares held by the State. The bank
it seems, takes the ground that the
State should surrender it's stock fol

done. The State claims 1.08 per cent
