a regular meeting OF The city
council was held this morning,
Mayor Gait presiding. Aldermen
present: Q. P. vanDenberg, w.
7. Gardner. 4. J. Wolverton, Al.
M. Burch and M. German.
The minutes Of previous meeting
we're read and approved.
The monthly reports Of city OH
GERS, including the mayors report.
report Of city assessor and collect
or and report of city marshal were
presented.
The following accounts were
read and referred to the finance
committee: j. Il. Spiegle, $1.75;
Wolverton Grocery Co., $5.35;
Brady Bros, 81.
The city attorney then read an
ordinance. which he had been in
structed to draft. looking to the
prohibiting of stock running at
large within the corporate limits
of the city. This brought out ev-
cry salient feature which the town
COW ever possessed, and caused a
spirited discussion among the
members of the board, some of
whom wanted the stock kept up all
the time. Others were in favor of
allowing the old COW her freedom
as we now have it.
Attorney Walker asked permis-
sion to say a word which was
granted. and he took occasion to
show the council wherein such a
restrictive ordinance would work a
hardship on many.
The vote on the first section of
the new ordinance was finally
reached, with Aldermen Burch,
German and VanDenberg voting
for its adoption and Aldermen
Wolverton and Gardner opposing
it. The remaining sections of the
ordinance were adopted as read.
The paper then went to the may
or's table, where it was endorsed
by the city recorder, but Mayor
Gait opposes the first section of
the ordinance, consequently it will
have to be reconstructed.
On motion the city attorney was
instructed to draft an ordinance
dividing our city into four wards.
making Main street east and west
and Springer street north and
south the dividing lines.
He was also instructed to frame
an ordinance defining a Sunday
law and restricting certain occupa.
tions therein.
On motion of Alderman Vol
verton the council ordered that
bids be accepted for the taking o.
a complete census Of the city
which may be bid on at so mucl
/ for each ward or bid can cove
the entire city. The report of tn,
census-takers must show the full
name, age, sex and race of ever,
inhabitant in our city. The coun
ell will meet Thursday evening
and review the bids and award tn
contracts for said census taking.
The accounts of the judges an,
clerks for holding the recent schoo
election were read and allowed.
The council then adjourned.

THE great day is over and it pretty
we'll met the expectations of its pro-

family gatherings and reunions to
some extent and are good things to

with much money in their pockets
are taking an unnecessary risk and
they are almost sure to be sorry that
they have done so before the story

largely by idlers and drones who never

is no excuse for the idler these times
and very little for the thief at any

ops his own territory and instead of
getting one-eighth of the product of
his we'll, the amount with which the
farmer has to content himself he re-
ceives the entire amount. Although
his oil field is yet in its infancy he al
ready has an income of 50. 900 day,
and the amount it may rise to is alb
solutely incalculable. Fifteen wells
are being sunk on his big farm near
Wolf Summit, and thirty more loca-
lions have. been made. AL his wells
are good producers ranging from forty
TO three hundred barrels a day.

Feeding For Eggs.

If the early-hatched pullets are not
laying by November l, there is a rea-
son for it, and you should keep expert
menting until you can get them start
ed for the winters work
You need not expect much from old
hens for the next two months, unless
they have mOulted earlier than usual;
then you, perhaps, will get a few eggs
in December, but the egg supply
should come from the pullets until the
last years hens have recuperated
enough to commence. [ have often
started a flock at once by feeding
parched oats or corn, or both; using
a little clean grease of some kind
tallow is good and cheap in Florida.
1t is quite necessary, if you expect
early laying pullets, to feed them to
that end, commencing when they are
two-thirds grown to feed a balanced
ration to stimulate the embryo yolks,
so that when maturity is reached the
pullet is ready to lay and will keep it
up. | have had White LeghOrns laying

Now, what l mean by a balanced "a

portion of protein, carbohydrates and

a balanced ration for best results as
it is a COW. If you do not care to
formulate a ration, you can find sever

ciples and containing just what a
fowl needs. Except animal food, one
sixth or one-eighth in weight of Bow

degrees of heat and underestimate the
value of a flood Of sunshine poured
into a house from morning till night.
Experience with both kinds of
houses will convince almost any one
that the sUnlighted house is imnlrllSe-
ly superior to the uniGnted one. The
chief value Of the sunlight, as far as
the house itself is concerned, is that
the light keeps the house dry. \ dark

course that the fowls are not over,

Hens having the range of the farm do
not need the same attention those con-
fined in pens do. Do not leave chick
ems to shift for themselves until the
cold bleak days are here, but give
them attention all the time, (they do
not need so much during the warm
months when nature supplies their
wants), especially during the moult-
ing season, when they need plenty and
a variety of good wholesome food to
supply the extra demand made upon
them. At all times endeavor to keep

Eggs are always cash or it's eQuiva-
lent. The more eggs the more of COM
fort and money, and the more hens the
more of eggs, of course, provided they
are given proper attention.-Nellie
Hawks.
Rye is probably the poorest grain for
poultry. Fowls do not like it, and will
seldom eat it if they can get anything
else.
Fowls that are infested with vermin
often acquire the feather-pulling habit.
Too much meat and fresh bone will
cause sickness, and twice a week is
often enough to feed these things.
Black NIinorcas, Andalusians and
some strains of White LeghOrns and
Light Brahmas will lay eggs which
will go six OF seven to the pound.
The male bird should be kept away
from the winter layers. By eating the
stimulating ratiOns calculated for egg
production, he will become so fat as to
be useless as a breeder. He should be
kept apart and mated in the early
spring with a certain number of pick
ed hens for breeding purposes. Seven,
nine or eleven hens are quite enough
for a breeding pen.
Clean and whitewash the poultry
house, and provide it with oyster
shells and gravel and dust bath at
one end. Cover the main floor with
leaves, and every day scatter some
wheat and corn among them. This will
keep the hens busy scratching, and
the exercise will not only keep them
warm, but will make them lay.-F. II.
Sweet.
Some breeders make a practice of
lying about Oh the floor of the poultry
house. The hens pick away at these
and get tired trying to break them,
and being familiar with such hard
eggs lying around, they are not tempt
ed to tackle other eggs. 1t is a meth
Cd that does not cost much to try
Farm and Poultry.
Large breeders require somewhat
different treatment from the small
fowls. Being large and heavy, they
are naturally inclined to be indo>
lent and inactive, so the more neces-
sary to devise means to make them
exercise; the exercise helping in di-
costing their food and keeping them
warm, which we notice is an import
ant factor in egg production. By no
means keep the lazy hens of any breed,
for lazy hen is not good egg pro-
ducer. Keep the ones that moult early
for winter layers, and avoid crowding.

Care of Incubator Chicks.


incubator as soon as they are dry
placed in a basket with a piece of
flannel under and over them, and the
basket set near a stove or in a warm
place and the chicks not fed for TWEEN
ty-four hours.
After that time remove them from
tween eighty and ninety degrees and
feed with a few bread crumbs. Keep
clean water constantly before them,
but have the vessel containing the
water so arranged that they cannot
get themselves wet. You can buy
fountains for this purpose or make
yourself by placing a tumbler upside
down in an ordinary coffee saucer.
| After the first feeding they must be
enclosed under the hover of your
brooder until the next feeding. Do
not neglect to do that, it is very i'm
portant. Feed often, but little at a
time, as they cannot digest much at
a time, and positively must not be
over-fed. Overlooking will produce
bowel complaint as quickly as any
thing else. They should be we'll fed,
and yet kept a little hungry Feed
them about four or five times a day at
regular hours, and see that they all
return to their hover after each feed
ing. Scrape up what feed is left, if
any, and throw it away or give to the
pigs or your full grown chickens.
Young chicks must never eat stale
feed. They must be taught to go I'M
der the hover each day until they
learn what it is for, and where to go
when they get cold.
They must also be taught right from
the first to eat everything that is
good for them, like screenings, millet
seed, cracked corn, whole wheat, and
baked cornmeal cakes pulverized.
Wheat and cracked corn should be
their predominating food after the
fifth day.
Some persons complain that their
chicks will not eat some of these
foods, but you can overcome that by
giving them only a little of the foods
they do not seem to care for between
the regular times for feeding and al
so little with the food they do eat at
their regular feeding. They must not
become habituated to one food. They
should become quite hungry for their
last meal, which should be given them
as late as possible before dark, so that
they will eat enough to last them I'M
til morning The last feed should be
hard dry grain.
Some persons complain that the
chicks will not go under the hover, but
crowd into the corners and smother
each other If the foregoing direc-
tons are carefully and patiently car
ried out, and the little chicks made go
under the hover from the first, they
will soon learn that the hover is a
good mother to them, and will not be
troubled with smothering.-H. @.
