males as soon as big enough, can have
such a flock by fall.
There is a man we'll known to the
writer, who, during the three months
of December, January and February,
cleared. over all expenses of feed, etc.,
a little over one dollar a day for every
day of the winter from the eggs laid
by seventy-fve pullets, and the milk
and butter obtained from two cows.
He has a good hen house, in three Sec
lions, built of stone and concrete, and
it is so snugly put up that during the
great blizzard of the middle of Feb
ruary, when the thermometer went
down to twenty-four below zero, his
fowls never frosted bit; and. on the
very coolest day he gathered thirty
nine eggs from his seventy-five pullets.
He devotes his tine to his fowls and
stock in the winter months, and this
statement of his profits is a fact in
every respect. In addition to his sew
enty-five pullets he has about forty
hens, but he said that his hens were
not so warmly housed, and the few
eggs he got from them barely paid for
their feed.
He knows the value of pullets, and
he is Matching now, with his pegs set
for 100 as his seasons work in raising
chickens, and he will enlarge his stone
hen house to accommodate them. His
object is winter eggs, and he gets rid
of the young roosters very early in the
proceedings.-Texas Farm and Ranch.

BUYING FOR CASH.

The advantages of the cash buying
principle are much more highly appre-
ciated than formerly. Present indica-
lions point to the fact that at no very
distant date the long drawn out inter
est bearing account will be a thing of
the past. Cash buying is a business
short cut, it is the little path that leads
across the fields. 1t saves business
distance.
Not only that, it is a money
making principle. Buying for cash
saves interest; interest-money-
saved is money earned. Cash sell
ing and buying has gradually
led up to another method of con-
Quoting business, which is to sell di
rect from the mandatory to the con-
sumner. This system possesses SO many
advantages that we cannot stop to
enumerate them here. 1t is really the
carrying out of the cash buying plan
upon an extended and enlarged form.
Goods are sent upon receipt of cash
or are shipped G. O. D. with privilege
of examina ton. Take for instance
the Elkhart Carriage and Harness
Mfg. Co., of Elkhart, Indiana. They
sell everything they make direct from
the factory to the consumer. Their
terms are either cash with order or @.
O. D. with fullest privilege of exam
ina ton, and their experience is that
the cash buying principle is growing
upon the people. By far the greatest
percentage of their orders contain cash
remittance. This is very compliment
tary to the Elkhart people and their
fair business methods. They are I'M
doubtedly the largest manufacturers
of vehicles and harness in the world
selling direct to the consumer.

The Thing to Do Now.

no matter what breed we may have,
or, If we have no special breed, simply
''chickens," it behooves us to look out
for the main chance. And the main
chance is gI<atly strengthened in rails
ing chickens, if we shorten the rooster
portion of cur chicken crop as short
as possible, and make it our special
aim to raise pullets. That is the main
thing. 1t don't pay to raise a whole
lot Of shiftless young roosters to
knock and scrap about, and stand in
the way CT the advancement of the
pullets.
Take the short cut with the young
roosters. Let them live till they are
barely big enough to eat, or sell, and
then get rid of them. Fire the whole
gang Of them out, excepting two or
three of the best ones, and give the
puIlets the benefits of your undivided
attention and care.
There is money in raising layers but
very little in raising roosters beyond
the eatable size. They take up room.

that mature eat about as much as

Fresh Eggs.

At this season it is not the large
cities that have difficulty in getting
strictly fresh eggs, but the small
towns and villages. Those having eggs
send them off to the cities because it
is much easier to do so than to take
them to custom ars direct, the cOnse-
Quence being that the city markets are
nearly always better supplied than the
towns. Eggs are selling at five cents a
dozen more in some villages than in
large cities. Eggs can be had, it is
true, but the article needed is the
''strictly fresh eggs, which is seldom
to be had unless procured from reliable
parties Even in the cities the mer-
chants are compelled to candle" the
eggs-that is, assert them-sO as to
discard all that might not be we'll up
to the requirements, and the buyers of
eggs pay good prices for "candled'
eggs, as they have no means Of know
ing them until they are used. In
the towns the farmers can get good
prices and build UP a trade with reg
ular customers, who will be glad to
get the best and who are willing to
pay well therefor Farm and Fireside.

Raising Young Chickens.

During the next few weeks many lit
tie chicks will make their first appear
ance in this world, and no doubt many
of them will be sorry for it before the
end of the year. With the appearance
of the little chicks means more, but not
unpleasant work for us poultry wOm-
en-, but those who are interested in
poultry, especially thoroughbred, and
put their whole heart in the work sure
ly enjoy the Matching season. We want
our little chicks to start a rapid
growth from the time they leave the
shell and keep them growing, but in
order to do this they must have the
proper feed and be kept free from the
worst enemy there is to pOultry-lice.
We all know a little lousy chick WI
not grow fast, if it lives to grow at all,
and that lice kill more of them than
anything else 1t is the best plan not
to wait for the chicks to hatch before
you commence fighting the little pest,
but begin as soon as you put the eggs
under Biddie, by busting her with in
sect powder and do so several times
while sitting. and after she matches,
while the little chicks are still in the
nest, dust her and the little chicks
we'll. I have heard often times that
little chick free from lice would not
have the gapes, but I have had them
do so, and not a louise could be
found on them. The most successful
way to treat the gapes is with afeather.
/ get small but stout feather, strip it
down ON both sides to within about
two inches from the end. l then notch
it with the scissors, dip it lightly in
coal oil and insert it in the wind pipe,
and give it a twist or two The oil will
loosen the worm from the wind pipe
and make the chick Sneeze, and that
throws the worm out. [ have had
them throw the worms all over my
hand before 1 put them down, after
operating on them. The oil does not
hurt the chick at all, and this is the
only way 1 ever treat for gapes at all
now, as 1 am always successful with
it. Last year I only had a very few
chicks have the gapes. While [ am
on the "sure" subject, will give

Cuban lawyer yesterday what would be
the outcome of the struggle. His answer
was a typical one and worth recording.
I'VE shall win in the end. he said, even
if we have to pursue the tactics Of the
Chinese coolies.
This means passive resistance carried to
extremes. When the Spaniards manumit
ted the negro slaves of the island coolies
were imported from China to take their
places the plantations for the free
negro would not work. The lot of these
unfortunate creatures was horrible beyond
description. They could be ill-treated with
impunity. for they were of no exchange

reached. however. they had one remedy,
which never failed to reduce their masters

it is tried. however. there will be many OPP

their ingenuity in inventing pretexts to
avoid the orders of Gen. Brooke.

c. Taylor, a well-hnown local attorney,
one, of his assistants. To a Star reporter

| changes in the corps of assistant attor-
neys and other employees for the present

of the office as now organized, may re-
main undisturbed.
The oath was administered to Mr. An
derson by Chief Justice Bingham of the

the clerk, the retiring United States at
torney, the United States marshal and his
chief assistant, a number of attorneys, the
represe natives of the press on duty at

son produced his commission and Clerk
Young framed the cath: which was signed
by the incoming official. Chief Justice
Bingham then formally administered the
same The justices and others extended
congratulations, Mr.. Anderson holding quite
a pleasant reception.
An Interesting feature of the brief cere-
mony was that it was witnessed by four
former United States attorneys Tor the
District of Columbia-Mr. Henry Z. Davis,
Mr. Arthur A. Birney, Justice Charles G.
Cole and Mr. A. S. Worthngton.
Escorted by Mr.. Davis United States At

hall building He closeted with Mr..
Davis for short time, and, after announc-
ing the appointment of Mr. Taylor, left the
building for the remainder of the day.
Mr. Davis was on duty until late this
afternoon experimenting the removal of
the washington Loan and Trust building.
