It is not the large hen that lays the
large egg always.
The nests should never be fastened to
the henhouse in such manner that they
cannot be taken down.
Keep young chickens growing now, so
that they will have sufficient vitality to
withstand the summer weather.
As soon as the Matching season is over
all Of the cocks not needed for breeding
should be marketed, as they are only an
expense.
A good remedy for blood feathers is
-four Of sulphur with butter, given in a
pill the size Of a pea few times, until
they mott.
If raising fowls largely for meat in
stead Of eggs, you want the large breeds
and those that grow rapidly. You must
feed them literally.
The earliest maturing fowl of the large
breeds is the Langshan, which usually be-
gins to lay when months old. 1t makes
a good winter layer.
Ducklings, if exposed to wet weather
or even wet ground, are apt to take
cramp in their legs, and this in many
cases proves fatal. Keep them dry.

Fighting Spirit Of the Filipinos Said t.
He Far From Broken.
MANILA, Aug. 10, via Hong Kong,
Aug. 29.-The Filipino rebels appear to
retain much more'of fighting spirit
than might be expected after their re-
cent San Fernando experiences and
General Lawton's drubbings in the
South.
After giving up San Fernando with a
feeble struggle, they entrenched them
selves at Angeles, working for several
days and impressing noncombattants
into the work, thus saving the armed
men for the fighting. They engaged
Lieutenant Colonel Smiths regiment
warmly for four hours, making one of
the most stubborn resistances of the
campaign. But the Americans are in
debted to the usual poor marksmanship
of the Filipinos as we'll o. their strategy
for their small losses.
In the province Of Cavite, where it
was supposed the rebels had been scat
tered and demoralized beyond recupera-
ton, they have assembled an army Of
several thousand men, distributed
among the important towns from the
lake to the bay.
Dispatches Were Censored.
OF their operations the Associated
Press correspondent was permitted to
send only an inadequate dispatch, die
tated verbatim by Major General Otis.
The censor writes stereotyped official
phrases and adjectives into the dis
patches, tending to magnify the Ameri.
can operations and to minimize the op-
position.
General Otis says newspapers are not
public institutions, but private enter
prises, and the correspondents are only
here on suffrance.
All reports from the rebel territory
agree that the scarcity of food is in
creasing add that the rebel command
ers at Apart and other points refuse to
obey Aguin aldo's order in regard to
closing the ports held by the rebels
against American ships and say that
any ship bringing stores will be well
coined. Several ships from Manila are
now at such porte.

BILLY IS SCARED.
News Says Republican Votes Are
Needed for Him.

A significant article appears in the
News this week under the authority
of the Populist central committee
chairman, admitting that W. A. Mat
teson must get Republican votes in
order to win. III the defeat Of Mat
teson should take place." it asks in
alarm, "what would his supporters
have to say for themselves. They
would have to say that he was sacri.
feed in the house of his friends"
Then it goes on to say that it is be-
lieved that "hundreds Of Republicans
will vote for him butif the Fusionists
don't all support him he can't win.
In other words Democrats and Popu-
lists all over the county have become
exceedingly weary Of the Matteson
gang boss.ship and are openly declar-
ing that they are done with it, 1t
will take Hundreds Of Republicans"
to pull Billy through and if he don't
get 'em he is done up.
And he won't get 'em. This is the
year when the Republicans are going
to quit voting the Pop ticket and then
having the Populists 60 around rub
bling their hands gleefully and boast
ing, didn't we lick you though!
Billy Matteson's election was great
Populist victory" They did it once
but they can't do it again. That old
game won't work, gentlemen. Billy
,an well be scared for he won't get
votes this time.
