MITCHELL BYRD PARDONED.
He Was Sent Up For Twelve Years
for Murder.

Tor MURDER.
Governor Russell yesterday granted a
pardon to Mitchell Byrd, who was abou;
a year ago convicted in Mitchell county
Superior court. of feloniously killing
Thomas Butler, and sentenced to the
penitentiary for twelve years.
1t appeared from the testimony that
Byrd offered to prove that Butler was
a violent and dangerous man and had
made threats to kill him. These threats
had been communicated to Butler. 1t
was in evidence, as appears from the
case on appeal, that, on the night of the
killing, Butler had waited in the road
for Byrd, had stopped him and threaten
ed to kill him. Byrd turned around, and
as he did so, Butler stopped to tie
ground with satchel in his hand which
it appeared afterwards contained Il
knife. AS Butler stopped Byrd threw
a stone and afterwards fired the fatal
shot with pistol.
Over seven hundred citizens of Mitch
ell county petitioned the Governor for q
pardon, among them Judge Bowman
John Gudger, Col. Isaac, Wesley and
William Bailey, J. G. Phillips, Col
Irby, Sheriff McKenny and others prom
inent in Mitchell county.
Byrd is about sixty years old, and q
man of good property.

ing silos and cellars, and will save
time and money on any farm if prop
erly handled.
The stacker consists of one long post
or pole set solidly in the ground and
extending 30 to 40 feet in the air, a
short arm OF ten or twelve feet, and
the necessary ropes and pulleys. The
arm is fastened at the height desired
by boiling onto an iron band, some
times made from an old wagon-tire
inserted in groove or collar cut
around the post A strong wire, rope
or chain is then fastened to the outer
end of the arm, or derrick, and on q
band made to circle round near the top
of the pole. Three pulleys are sufli-
cient to hoist the load, and a small
rope in the hands of the man on the
stack or ground enables him to pull
the hoisted load wherever desired.
AS no one has disturbed the farm
ers using the derrick, it is supposed
the stacker is not patented, hence no
royalties will be demanded of anyone
who wishes to make one.-Joel Sho-
maker. in Farm and Fireside.

HOT WATER FOR LICE.
An Insect Destroyer Which Does Its
Work Thoroughly and Can lie
Had for Nothing.

The Messenger very sensibly SAYS
that boiling hot water is n lice killer
about which we read very little in the
poultry papers; but it does the work
very thoroughly, and is very cheap. In
a poultry house where the pests have
obtained foothold hot water will
greatly assist in their determination.
The waste water on wash day can be
used for this purpose. being returned
to the stove after il has served it's end
at the washtub and reheated. If the
walls, roosts and nesting boxes are
drenched with this the larger proper
ton of the lice will be destroyed in
stantly, and those which escape will
meet their fate in the coat of white
wash which should follow within day
or two. If the nursery coops are
turned upside down and hot water
sprinkled over the inner surface until
it flowsinto and through every crevice.
not single louise will survive the
treatment. This should be done in the
forenoon of bright day in order that
all dampness may be dissipated before
the brood returns to ii at night. We
have nothing laid up against the
lice killer makers, and have no desire
to injure their business, but everybody
cannot buy these things; and while
they are a convenience, it is just as well
to admit the fact that they are not
necessity. The lice can be conquered
more cheaply, but to do this involves
the expenditure of more time and la

CLEANING UP THINGS.
No Time of the Year II letter Suited
for This Kind of Work Than
the Present.

During the next two months is one
of the best seasons for cleaning up the
farm, and in the majority of farms
there is plenty of opportunity or need
for this kind of work. After the plow-
ing for wheat is done the manure can
all be cleaned out of the stables, sheds
and feed lots and hauled out and scat
tered broadcast on the land tended
for wheat. The work Of properly pre-
pairing the land for the reception Of
the seed will incorporate sufficiently
with the soil. Weeds may be cut down
in the meadows and pastures and
along the fence rows to a good advan-
tage. Many of them, If cut down be-
fore they mature seeds, will be effect
ually killed out.
This is one of the best reasons for
the exception of sassafras and per-
simmon almost all kinds may be eff
fectually killed out by cutting down
reasonably close to the ground almost
any time in August. With these two
in nearly all cases the only safe plan
is to grub out, cutting them off at
least six inches below the surface.
While this plan requires considerable
work, in the end it will prove much the
more economical. This is so much the
case that generally it will be better
to thoroughly clean an acre in this
way than to spend the same amount
of time and labor cutting OFF and burn
ing larger acreage, but doing less eff
fective work.
Cutting close to the ground and let
ting lay until dry and then burning
will kill out many weeds, moss and
sprouts, but with perSimmon and sas-
safras the tops will rarely be killed
down so deep but that the roots will
send up shoots next year, and in
short time they will be as much in the
way as ever.
BY keeping the farm clear the value
is materially increased to say moth
ing of the better satisfaction in work

Voice.

NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERS.

Drones are the male bees.
Have good supply of hives in readi-
ness.
Drones have no stings and no means
of defense.
Cross, singing bees are usually the
result of improper handling.
Keep plenty of room above the brood
nest for the storage of honey.
a colony that seems slow in building
up may have defective queen.
Much surplus honey cannot be Sc
cured if the bees are allowed to swarm
at will.
Rough treatment will not succeed,
but will irritate the bees beyond re-
demption.
Colonies worked for extracted honey
are less inclined to swarm than those
for comb honey.
Use one-pound section boxes in the
crates and the best crates for holding
them on the hives.
AS the season advances and the hive
becomes crowded with bees, more ven
tilation should be given.
Swarming may often be discouraged
by giving a young queen to the hive
that is getting ready to swarm.
To hive n swarm right is to hive all
the bees, and If the queen is there at all
she will be in the hive with them.
TO obtain crop of honey in prof
table manner, the surplus boxes must
be ready TO put in the hives when
needed.
A section filled with comb in which
there is little honey put in the surplus
cases will entice the bees into the upper
ones.
Moth worms are very destructive to
empty combs in the hives where the
bees have died and in those put away
unoccupied.
The best way to get rid of moth
worms in empty combs is to put the
combs in empty boxes and fumigate
them with burning sulphur.-St. Louis
Republic.

The derrick stacker is in use in many
sections of the west, and gives general
satisfaction in hosting hay, straw and
grain. 1t is made stationary, and can
be used in making round stack, with
the pole in the middle, or for lifting hay
or grain to a platform, from which it
may be put in the barn. This simple
device is also handy for stacking on
sheds, saving all the heavy pitching
from the wagon. Some farmers have
the derricks set against the barn, and
use them for hosting machinery to
the top floor in winter and letting it
down in the spring. The derrick will
be found handy for filling and empty
