Naval Experts Concur In Opinion of Its
Expediency.
Washington, Feb. 21.--There is no
abatement of the talk OF the expedi-
ency of raising the Maine. Chief Con-
struetor Hichborn is one of the most
earnest advocates of the resurrection

for the wreekers to operate in, and
that II she can be rebuilt at cost of
81 600 600, the government will save
81, ,ooo, 600. the first cost of such a bat
tleship, with all of her equipment.

AT THE WHITE HOUSE,
President Displays the Keenest ANXIETY
Regarding the Event.

Washington, Feb. 17.-The efforts of
all government officers to remain calm
in the face of the shocking disaster to
the Maine and its attending mystery
was apparent, and number of naval
officers volunteered their theories in
support of the accident hypothesis, all
of which, in the absence of any facts
on which to base reasonable opinion,
we're decidedly unsatisfactory.
At the White House, the president
spent the evening, until midnight. in
his office. There was no official con.
ference on the disaster, however, and
but one caller, Senator Fairbanks of
Indiana, who merely discussed the
Maine catastrophe incidentally with
the other business which brought him
TO the White House The president
displayed the keenest interest in the
ppalllng story, and the deepest sym
p4thy for the sufferers.

Com petition.

Farmers win never have reason TO
fear competition from the producers Of
poultry in large towns or near cities,
when the latter make it their entire
business. The cost of producing both
eggs and flesh must always be greater
under such conditions than they will be
on the farm. On the farm there are
large areas that can be roamed over
by the fiocls, which will pick up enough
to make feeding at the pen an unneces-
sary thing during large part of the
year, Thus, one man tells the Farm
ers' Review, that his wife keeps 200
Leghorn hens and seldom feeds them.
Her husband runs a threshing machine
and much grain is hauled to his place
for threshing. The Waste grain proves
equal to almost the entire support of
the flock of hens. On most farms will
be found some condition akin to this.
The expenses are so reduced that a
good profit can be obtained even when
eggs are low. On the other hand. the
specialist usually has but small area
of land and finds 1t more profitable to
buy than TO raise his grain. He must
always get good price for his products
II he Is to make profit.

RELIEF FOR DAWSON.
Obstacles In the Way of Relief Expeditions
To Alaska.

To Alaska.
Seattle, Wash, Feb. 2i.-The gov
ernment pack train which left here ON
the ship Lucille to join the main body
of the Alaskan relief expedition at
Dyea, Is having all kinds of trouble.
The Lucille is now at Departure Bay,
B. G., and can get no further for lack
of tug. The tug Monarch towed the
Lucille from this city to Departure
Bay but she would go no further as
her pilot was not familiar with north
ern waters.
The long confinement which the ami
mails would be forced to undergo by an
ordinary voyage is heightened by this
unexpected delay, and meanwhile the
season is advancing and the possibility
of taking relief into Dawson is grow

Barley as Stock Food.-To deter
mine the value of barley as a stock food
In practical way, tests were recently
made by feeding it in comparison with
corn and with wheat. In the feeding
tests with pigs, ground barley did one
half better than unground, and ground
corn did one-fifth better than unground.
Whole barley gave better results than
whole corn. Ground corn required one
half more food to make a pound of
growth than ground barley. Ground
barley made one pound of growth
for every 3tta pounds of grain
fed, at cost of but shade over two
cents per pound, which was better than
any other feed did. In steer feeding
tests both corn and wheat surpassed
the barley In lamb feeding tests there
was scarcely any pereeptible difference
IN results from corn, wheat and bar
ley. Corn and barley mixed gave bet
ter results than either alone. In every
feeding test bald barley gave better re-
suits than common barley-Farmer

THE COTTON MARKET.

As the war talk grows hotter
each day the price of cotton ad
vances. We have witnessed in the
last few days an advance in points
very aattering to those who have
been holding spots.
Yesterday the market closed at
GIG points and opened today at
6.31, which is equal to about 625
cents on each bale OF cottou weigh
ing 500 pounds.
Should actual hostilities break
out between the United States and
Spain, cotton delivered in Liverpool
would be quite an item and the
shippers would realize a big profit.
A prolonged war between the cOun-
I -ttIies mentioned would perhaps
cripple the market here, as cotton
on the open sea would be subjected
to capture by privateers of the
sea.

EAST SIDE KNOCKED OUT
Judge j. h. Rodgers. Of the U s
Federal Court in the Sewerage
Case Decides Against Us

JulgeJ u R1lrer-, of the Ju.t.
ed States District Court of the
Western District of Arkansas, u
chambers decided that the East
Side had mo- right TO dump their
sewage on tbe West Side, or in
such a iuxta-posIuou as 20 tudan
Ser the health Of either city, He
asks us TO settle the matter out of
court without the aid of the law.
The Judge being Informed of the
situation of the two sewer systems
of the city, said he thought IL
would be wise 10 form a union With
/ the west side and have one common
/ dumping ground. This is good,
wholesome advice, aud our city
council, orsewerage commissioners,
should come together before the
hot weather Is upon us and attend
10 this needed change.
This paper has always advocated
union of the sewerage systems,
from sanitary point of view and
hopes now that the East Side wll.
prove no laggard in an early adj
iustment OF the matter, and join
its sewerage pipes with that of the
West Side, and that without delay.
This work win cost somewhere
near $4,000 and the ways and
means committee win be called
upon to say how this amount must
be raised.
There is one thing certain, the
Judge has given the East Side to
understand that the law will not
permit them to use the dumping
ground that is now being used, and
a change mast be made, and the
facilities that are offered us by the
West Side is a fair and equitable
one, and one we believe we should
accept. Let us get to work on this
question Immediately.
