terday was 4 feet and ] inch, while at
the Marietta wharf it was feet in
ches. The river is falling at all points
and river men are getting discouraged
over the prospects. The weather re-
port was eagerly scanned yesterday in
hopes of a rainy forecast, but the
nearest approach to a moist condition
was the fogs which prevail nightly
along the river and which have delay
ed the Virginia and other boats.
A well known river man remarked
yesterday at the wharfboat that he ex-
peoted ice before a good boating stage
and that the larger boats would soon
be tied mp again until the first of the
month anyway.

The Concert.

The first entertainment CT the High

The personnel of the company is as
follows: Nine. Cecilia Eppinghousen
Bailey, Soprano; Miss Cora Earle
Greene, Contralto; Mr.. Harry Fellows,
Tenor; Mr.. Francs Walker, Baritone;
Mr.. Harry b. Vincent Pianist
The programme rendered by this
company of talented singers was of the
popular kind that finds warm well
come with the general run of people
Ah The numbers were well handled, es-
pecially those of the tenor, Mr.. Eel
lows, who handles his light, flexible
tenor voice in a mos satisfactory
manner. Nine. Bailey is a charming
appearing woman, with a soprano
voice of fairly high range and great
sweetness, and she enters into her
work with enthusiasm, singing with
spirit and finish. The contralto, Miss
Greene, has a very sweet voice of light
volume, and she showed particular
ability in her enunciatlon. Francis
Walker. the baritone, gave a deal of
pleasure in the rendition of his num-
bers-particularly the oldfashloned
Folk Songs. The pianist, Mr.. Vincent,
is a versatile player, and his numbers
demonstrated that he is a talented
young man at the piona-forte.
The audience which assembled to
hear the concert was one of the finest
we have ever seen at the Auditorium,
and may be taken as an indication of
,.-e success Of the undertaking.

GREEN BONES AS FOOD.
A. Special Material for Egg Produce
ton They Are Really with
out n Rival.

The value of bone cutter exceeds its
cost If the cutter is used only one sea-
son, but as they are almost indestruct-
ible they will last for years. Fresh
green bone is almost of itself COM
plete food, and may be used as special
material for egg production. While the
proportion of moisture in bone varies,
1t is in but small amount in bone COM
pared with some other foods. The
moisture in bone may be set down at
about IS per cent, or a little over one
third. Bone contains about % pounds
of mineral matter in 100 pounds, 20
pounds of fat and 20 pounds of albu-
minoids. The mineral matter Tor ash)
contains about 81 pounds of phosphate
OF lime in 100 pounds, 11Ha pounds Of
carbonate Of lime and a small proper
ton OF earthly matter. Now, anyone
can easily notice that bone is one Of
the best foods for producing eggs, as
the fat assists in forming the yolk Of
the egg and also in sustaining the fowl
In winter when the weather is cold.
The albuminoids provide the albumen
for the eggs, and the carbonate of lime
forms the shells, while the phosphate
of lime is an ingredient of the eggs and
is also just the thing to feed to growing
chicks to make them grow. Then there
Is more or less adhering meat to green
bone which is largely nutritious and
very favorable to the production of
eggs. There is no necessity for feeding
oyster shells to provide lime for the
eggshells, as the bone contains car
Donate of lime in sufficient proportion
for that purpose. Bone is digestible
and is food, yet it also serves as grit;
but in that respect no claims are made
for it compared with hard, sharp grit.
DO not confound green cut bone with
ground bone or bone meal. The one 10
dry and hard, the other is juicy and
succulent. Another point is that bone
cutter is not bone mill. The bone
cutter does not grind, but cuts (as fine
as may be wishedD both dry and green
bones, but bone mill will only grind
uiy pohes, as green bones are not sur
ficiently brittle to be ground. The way
to feed green bone is to give it in the
morning, about pound to dozen
hens (some give an ounce to each hen,
or pound to 16 fowls), then give no
other food until night, but let the hens
scratch and work. Two or three times
a week half the quantity of bone may
be used, giving also cut clover, ground
foods, etc, but always give full meal
of whole grain at night, as too much
soft food is not conducive to thrift

CUTTING UP HOGS.
Not Many Farmers Know How to Do
This Neatly, ExpeditiOusly and to
the Rest Advantage.

For cutting up, the carcass of hog
should be laid on the back, upon a
strong table. The head should then
be cut off close by the ears, and the
hinder feet so far below the houghs as
not to disfigure the hams, and leave
room sufficient for hanging them up;
after which the carcass is divided into
equal halves, up the middle of the back
bone, with a cleaving knife, and, II
necessary, hand-mallet. Then out the
ham from the side by the second JOINT
of the backbone, which will appear on
dividing the carcass, and dress the
ham by pariug little off the flank, or
skinny part, so as to shape 1t with a
half round point, clearing off any top
fat which may appear. Next cut off the
sharp edge along the backbone with a
knife and mallet, and slice off the first
rib next the shoulder, where there Is
q bloody vein, which must be taken out,
since, if it is left in, that part is apt
to spoil. The corners should DE
squared off when the ham is cut. The
ordinary practice is to cut out the
spine or backbone. Some take out the
chine and upper parts Of the ribs IL
the first place; indeed, almost every To-
cality has its peculiar mode of proceed
