CHARCOAL

One of the little things which is not
absolutely essential, but which the keep
er of flock of hens will be we'll paid
for preparing. is charcoal. The hens
will not consume great quantity of it,
but they seem to need certain amount
of it, and the good effects of it are ad-
mitted by all.
Charcoal is not unusually kept for sale
in the villages, and the majority of
poultrykeepers are put to the neces-
5ity of sending away for it or of manu-
featuring it. An article which will
fully answer the purpose can be made
from corncobs, and this is the material
which generally is made use of in the
West.
Rake lot of cobs in loose heap
where they will burn freely. Let them
burn until they are charred through,
but before they are reduced to ashes
smother the flame with oats. Use no
water for putting out the blaze. The
half-burned oats will not be wasted n
the hens will eat it with as much relish
as that which has not been touched by
the fire, Crush the charcoal and con-
stantly keep up small box of it in the
poultry house.

Apple snow consists of the white of
an egg beaten to very stiff froth, and
small cup of sugar and small well
favored tart apple grated in. The
secret of success depends upon beating
the egg very stiff and stirring in the
grated apple and sugar alternately.
When this apple snow is properly made,
it will fill mould holding two-thirds of
a quart. 1t is used as layer for cake,
and as a dessert served with soft GUS
tard sauce. Apple snow is stiff enough
to stand alone when it is properly beat
en-. A good housekeeper who is famous
among her friends for making this SIM
pie delicacy, assures us that it must be
beaten steadily half an hour, in order
to ''come up'' as it should.-For Cali

CABBAGE THE BEST GREEN FOOD.

Cabbage appears to be the best vege-
table food for laying hens in winter.
Carefully conducted experiments have
clearly demonstrated that it is superior
to cut clover. the best way to feed the
cabbage is to suspend it by a cord from
the ceiling of the poultry house and let
the hens pick it to pieces. 1t is often
recommended 20 place it high enough
above the floor to compel the hens to

During temporary fit of mental aber-
ration brought on by continued and hope
less illness, Walter Stackhouse, of River
ton, inflicted injuries on himself which re-
suited in death on Wednesday morning, at
his fathers residence, in Philadelphia.
For several months the young man has
been under the care of specialist in Phil
adelphia for Bright's disease and seemed
to be improving, until about four weeks
ago when he began to fail rapidly. A
week before his death he was taken to his
mothers home that he might have the
benefit of her care. On Wednesday morn
ing he complained of his nerves being all
unstrung. After breakfast he went up
stairs where his peculiar behavior
alarmed Mrs. Stackhouse, who went down
to send for her husband When she re-
turned he had cut his throat with razor
and gone to the bathroom where he died
in few minutes. The deceased was 81
years of age and leaves wife and three
children.

srainard school commencement.

The weather man was unusually kind on
Thursday evening, and an audience which
crowded the Opera House listened in com
fort to a program which was not only
carefully prepared and admirably rendered
but which was interesting in subject, and
gave evidence of the thoroughness OF
method and hard work which has always
characterized this school.
The graduates were Mabel W. Ebert,
Grace A. Haines, Bessie H. Jones and M.
Myra Wright, but forty other pupils OF
the school also graced the stage, and most
of them took some part in the program.
The first part included vocal music by
the school, instrumental numbers by Miss
Elsie M. Cline and Prof, Elberson, and
bv Mr.. Ernest S. Atkinson, and rec
itations by Mary B. Watson and class OF
girls. Interspersed between these were
essays-on Labor" with salutatory) by
Miss Gilbert; ''Earth's Benefactors" by
Miss Jones (this was read by Miss Annie
Incidentally; Success" by Miss Mabe
Mendenhall; a Prophecy" by Miss Haines
THE Bright Side, with valedictory, b.
Miss Wright.
This part closed with an address on tn
Importance of individual effort, by Rev
j. 81. Durham, who also presented oil
plomas to the graduates.
During the second part OF the program
Bessie Anderson, Edith Fl. Kingdom ant
Mary E. Candy gave recitations. Their
were songs by two groups OF girls, and
chorus by about dozen voices, in whic
the, boys sang remarkably well, and
piano solo, given from memory by Edit

Base Ball.
MOUNT HoLLY's GAME.

Bristol's team came to Mount Holly, on
Saturday, and took heavy defeat with
good grace Bristol is certainly cheer
full loser, and the players conduct them
selves in an orderly and gentlemanly man
ner.
Owing to the trouble caused Bristol by
Florence endeavoring to entice the for
mer's pitcher from them, there was new
man in the box, and he was not effective.
Tommy Dunn was put in to pitch for
Mount Holly and he did well. Up to the
ninth inning he had the visitors shut out.
In the last inning lie was directed to let
the Bristol team hit the ball and.leave the
result to the field. AS the game was
Mount Holly's beyond doubt the felders
did not expend much energy and Bristol
scored six runs. Heavy batting on the
part of the home team was the rule Logan
made a fine one handed catch, after a
sharp run to the side. Mount Holly
played an elegant fielding game, but one
error being recorded, very difficult fly
being dropped in centre field. The score:
