NEW ULM COAL RATES.
Closing Testimony in the Case Was
Taken Yesterday.

The closing testimony in the New Ulm
coal rate case against the Minneapolis "
St. Louis and the St. Paul & Duluth was
taken yesterday in district court. Secre-
tary Yapp, of the state railroad and ware
house commission, was the principal wit
ness and gave evidence concerning tables
of comparative rates and distances used
in evidence and prepared by himself. The
state closed its case with this testimony
and the court set the hearing of argu-
nents for Oct. %. Judge Bum will listen
to the final contest and will decide the
case.
The showing made by the defendant
railroads was not as good as they expect
ed The fact that the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern have both reduced
coal rates within the past two months
fas operated to weaken their case, since
the defendants relied on comparison be-
tween their coal rates and those of these
two roads as their strongest argument
for maintenance of the present tariffs.
Poth the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific have reduced coal rates, Duluth to
Moorhead, approximately the same dis
lance as to New Uln, IS cents per ton.

EPISCOPAL CHURCH CONGRESS LIS
TENS TO ADDRESSES ON THE
SUBJECT
PARTIsANsHIP ON QUESTION

an Interesting Discussion on
Ideal That 1t Would Like to See
Real Abstracts of the Papers and
Addresses en- the Subject.
The second days session of the Episco-
pal church congress was devoted to dis
cussions on The Sunday Question and
THE Bearing of the Newspapers on In
tenectual and Moral Life" The papers
prepared and the speakers who discussed
the two topics took widely different
views Rev Campbell Fair, of Omaha
contended that there should be a strict
observance Of the Sabbath and deplored
the disregard OF the day. Rev. Henry
Tatock, of Ann Arbor, took the position
that If Sunday observance was to be the
rule as it ought to be, then the working
man should not be obliged to work and
slave on week days so that he could not
properly observe the day of rest. Rev.
w. S. Rainsford, D. D., of New York,
held that wise spiritual policy followed
by the church would spiritualiZe the
times The people wanted guides rather
than men who were always scrutnizing
the past. Rev. Beverly Warner D. D., of
New Orleans, declared that there should
be no more legislation on the Sunday
question than on other questions sug-
gested by the decalogue. There was no
essential sacredness in the day called
Sunday The real question was how
should the day be observed.
There was the same marked diversity
of opinion as to the question of the news
papers and their bearing on intellectual
and moral life Rev. Cameron Mann, of
Kansas City. suggested an endowed news
paper, which did not rely on advertise
ments. Rev Alexander Mackay-Smith
D. D., of Washington, advocated that the
newspaper lift up it's readers instead of
pandering to the taste for details of crime
and scandal. Rev David H. Greer, of
New York, advised that only the best
newspapers be taken, and these in moder-
alton.

OF the stories Of uDsophisticated
relatives on their first visit to their
city cousins, and the miStak es they
make, there is no end. The blund-
ers of city visitors to the country
are equally amusing, no debut, but
do not so often get into print.
Uncle Hiram, having accepted an
invitation to spend the Christmas
holidays in Chicago, had arrived.
1t was a bitterly cold morning, and
Uncle Hiram, to whom the heating
of house by a furnace in the base
ment was something entirely new,
held his hands over the register in
the floor, from which the heated air
was coming up in gratifying volume.

try, but proper care will make it SO
much more profitable that it is sin
full to neglect it.
Oil meal is cheap, and it is an ex-
cellent addition to the feed of poul-
try there is nothing much better
for laying hens, if fed in small guam
titles. A tablespoonful or two twice
week, mixed with corn meal or
middlings, is sufficient for each hen.
Poultry on the farm should in
clude all kinds, even the guinea.
The flesh is rather dark, but very
sweet and fine favored, and there is
no better flesh to eat. They hide
nests and are noisy, but their voices
are always warning of something
amiss.
Ducks, turkeys and gueese require
good pasture and nothing else for at
least six months of the year; the
rest of the timo they can be fed on
cut clover hay or any green food
mixed with little bran or vegeta-
bles.
Chickens require more care than
other barnyard fowls, for they are
supposed to be producing eggs at
nearly all seasons, while ducks
geese and turkeys are not produc-
tive more than half the time; ii
pays to give more attention to the
latter, too, when their work de-
mands a greater food supply.
If you think you have no insects
in your poultry houses the chances
are that you are mistaken. 1t is
time now to begin to paint the
perches with kerosine occasionally
for this will keep the supply of mites
from increasing.
Do not waste any feed in keeping
cocks if you do not wish your eggs
for Matching. If your flock is com
posed OF hens only, you will find
them never more ready to lay than
they will be this spring.
Sour dough, exclusive corn meaI
diet, impure water and lack of grit
kill on many little chicks every
year. Thousands perish annually
because they do not have grit with
which to grind their food.
Hens naturally seek a secluded
place in which to lay, and if such q
place is provided they will not creep
under the bar or run off to thicket
somewhere to build nest. Take
some pains to have the hens nests
dark.
1t is when the boy or girl has not
been properly encouraged that they
leave the farm solely for the purpose
ofgetting away from it. Among the
many inducements to them to stay
none would be greater, probably
than to give them a flock of pure
bred poultry. What if it costs al
outlay of $25 in buildings and pure
bred eggs? If the boy or girl is not
worth that much there has been E
mistake in their bringing up. There
are some farms on which no young
ster should want to remain.
The April chick is better than tn,
one hatched in May, because it gets
a start before extremely hot weather
comes, and it is ready to matur,
early in the fall. The early pulle
will lay more eggs, and becaus
more of them are laid in cold wealth
