not rare in the New England states
and in Michigan. It is infrequent In
| Wisconsin,, Illinois and California, but
| in some localities in the latter state 1t
has a very rank growth.
The characteristic poison of the
hemlock is the well-known volatile al
kaloid, conine, which is found in the
seeds, and, especially at Towering
time, in the leaves. The root is nearly
harmless in March, April and May,
but is dangerous afterwards, especial
ly during the first year Of its growth.
Many domestic animals have been
killed by eating the plant. AS this
plant does not often occur in great
quantity in the United States, it may
usually be destroyed by hand-pulling
before maturity.
Corn Cakes-Sift one pint of yellow
Indian meal and one pint of flour with
three tablespoonfuls baking powder,
three tablespoonfuls sugar and one
teaspoonful salt into bowl, add one
heaping tablespoonful butter. Rub the
butter fine in the flour, mix the yolks
of two eggs with one pint of milk, add
it to the flour and mix quickly to-
gether; add last the beaten whites.
Do not stir more than is necessary.
Butter some deep gem pans, dust them
lightly with Indian meal and fill them
half full with the corn batter and bake
in a hot oven. Serve az soon as done.
This will give sixteen corn cakes. For
a small family half the given quaint
ties would be enough.

Time of Planting Kahr Corn.


Though Kafir corn is dry country
plant, 1t yet requires supply Of mois-
ture to get it started. If it is planted
late it may do we'll. for it may get rain
enough to give it start. But in most
Of our years, in the regions where 1t
pays to grow Kafir. in the semi-arid
West, the late seeding cannot be ex-
pected to get sufficient moisture to
give it the proper start. During the
last season tests were made at the
Oklahoma agricultural college as to
the relative benefits of early and late
planting. The dates of planting were
April 4, II, 10. 26, May 16. %. 80, June
s, 1s. Each plat contained 6,692 square
feet of land. The yields of the plant
ings were as follows: April 4, 4S.2
bushels per acre: April II, 34.6; April
10, 34.3: April 2e. so.3; May 16, 2s.s;
Nay q. 22.8: May %, 2s.6; May 30.
80: June 6. 1874: June 1s, 2.S. 1t
will be seen that the earliest planting
gave by all odds the best result, and
that the yields were poorer the later
the paintings were made, with two ex-
cepuons. The June paintings were
failures. The early planted grain got
the moisture that was needed for fill
ing and maturing. while the late sown
grains had to battle with the heat and
drouth of midsummer.

Turning on Old Ewes.

When lambs come early in the sea-
son and are sold as milk lambs, the
dams, If aged, should be sold also soon
after the lambs. They will fetch a
| higher price If sold then when in con-
dition for selling, than if sold later.
The better price is secured because of
the fact that the market is not over
stocked in the early months of sum-
mer as it is in the late months of
autumn, says the Farmer. But ewes
cannot be turned of at such time
unless they are fat. To secure such
| result special pains may be necessary
in feeding such ewes while nursing
their lambs. 1t may be necessary to
use considerable proportion of bar
ley, rye or corn in the grain given to
the dam while she is nursing her lamb.
This will prevent that falling OF in
flesh that is likely to occur during the
nursing period unless some means is
taken to prevent it. When the lamb
is sold it may be necessary to feed a
low diet for few days until the milk
flow ceases. The heavy grain ration
should then be continued. II there is
on hand at the same time a well-grow
rape pasture, the said pasture will do
the rest. II the rape is we'll grown it
will fatten the dam with but little
grain added. If the lambs are late.
then the ewes will of necessity be sold
in the fall. Here again the rape pas
ture will make them ready for sale
with but little outlay Sheep owners
should try and market stock of this
class before the winter sets in.
The British people are every year
becoming more dependent on foreign
dairy products. The COW population
is increasing to some extent, but not
so rapidly as is the human population.
In the period from 1871 to 1876 the
average number of cows and heifers
in the United Kingdom is put at 2,204,-
900. The average number of the same
stock in 1891 to 1895 was 1862, 1000.
But in the meantime the human pop
ulation had increased from 26,000,00O
to 33,0O0,000 In 1871 to 1875 there
were 81 cows for every 1000 of the
population. In 1896 there were but
73 cows per 1000 of the population.
We have no figures more recent. 1t is
barely possible that some day great
revival of dairy interests will take
place in Great Britain similar to what
took place in Denmark, but we see no
signs Of such a movement as yet.

ROBERTS TO
BE FIRED
House Committee Unanimous as
to Removal. but Divided
as to Method.
QUAY AND CLARK COME NEXT
The Roberts Committee Tells
About the Different Wives
and the Heavenly Twins

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1.-THE
special committee of the house. to in
vestigate the case of Brigham H. Rob
erts, of Utah, today reached a final
conclusion on the polygamous status
of Roberts. The committee was unani-
nous, and agreed upon formal state
ment of facts. On the question Of
procedure to be adopted. the commit
tee was divided All the members ex.
cept Littlefield. of Maine, and De Ar
mond, of Missouri, favored exclusion
at the outset. Littlefield and De Ar
mond will make minority report
favorable to seating Roberts on prima
facie rights, then expelling him.
The statements of facts found by the
committee is as follows: We find
that B. H. Roberts was elected as q
representative to the fifty-sixth con
gress, from the state of Utah, and was
at the date of his election above the
age of twenty-five years; that he has
been for more than seven years, nat
uralized citizen of the United States
and was an inhabitant Of the state Of
Utah. We further find that about
1878 he married Louisa Smith, his
first and lawful wife, with whom he
has ever since lived as such, and who.
since their marriage, has borne him
six children.
In 1885 he married, as his plural
wife, Celia Dibble, with whom he has
ever since lived as such, and who.
since such marriage has borne him
six children, of which the last were
twins, born August 18th, 1897. That
some years after his said marriage to
Celia Dibble, he contracted another
plural marriage with Margaret c.
Shipp, with whom he has ever since
lived in the habit and repute of mar
riage.
Your committee is unable to fix the
exact date of this marriage. It does
not appear that he held her out as
his wife before January 1st, 1897, or
that before that date she held him
out as her husband, or that before
that date they were reputed to be
husband and wife.
That these facts were generally
known in Utah, publicly charged
against him during his campaign for
election, and were not denied by him
That the testimony bearing on those
facts was taken in the presence of Mr.,
Roberts, and he finally examined
the witnesses, but declined to place
himself on the witness stand.

ARCHBISHOP cHAPELLE.
His Presence in the Philippines Stir
ring Up the Catholics.

Manila, Jan. IL The presence of
Archbishop Chapelle, Apostolic dele
gate to the Philippines, is greatly stir
ring the Catholics. The Filipinos had
gained the impression that Chapelle
is the joint agent of President Nc
Kinley and the Pope to restore the
Friars in their former power. One
cause of the excitement is the state
ment that the Dominicans furnished
the Spanish press, that Chapelle,in Wis
iting the heads of orders, told them he
favored the retention of the brother
hoods and President Mckinley shared
his views, which were 'If the Friars
returned to their parishes, they would
be considered elements of good order
and therefore, American agents.
Chapelle denies the accuracy of these
statements. To quell tie excitement,
General Otis consented to the publ
cation in local newspapers of the state
ment he made to the delegation of Fill
pinos. as follows:
IF the church authorities assign
Friars to curacies, who are obnoxious
to the people, they will not be com
PEELED to accept them. Individual
liberty is guaranteed by the Ameri-
can constitution and will not be de

will not force on them any ecclesiasti
cal denomination, contrary to theil

Over fifty young men of the city
have signed a compact to contribute
from their purses and lend encourage
ment by their presence and the pres
ence of their best girls to a social
dancing club. to be organized in the
city. They contemplate renting Ros-
enthal hall and giving two dances q

of forming a guitar and mandolin
club, in addition, and furnish their
own music for the terpischorean oc-
casions.
Last Sunday afternoon, a Bible So.

the study of the scriptures and it may
conclude to branch out a little in
social way.
The meeting of the Oratorio society
last evening was attended by about

on couple of new choruses. 1t was
decided to postpone the organization
of the society for couple of weeks

WILL OPEN GATES OF CANAL.
Fears of an Injunction by St. Louis
Stir Up the Canal Trustees.

Joliet, ILL.,, Jan. 17-Fears of action
on the part of st. Louis to prevent.
by injunction, the raising of the gates
controlling the waters of the Chicago
drainage canal, at Lockport, caused
hurried conference between the san
itary trustees and special committee
created to pass on the canal here
early today. The object was to secure
the necessary permit from the COM
mission. This was secured The
trustees and commissioners left few
hours later for Lockport to open the
gates. The hurried action of the
drainage trustees was the result of
movement on the part of attorneys of
Chicago to secure an injunction from
Federal Judge Kohlsaat restraining
the board from opening the gates of
the controlling works at Lockport.
The trustees had special train. 1t
was expected that the work of opening
the gates would not consume more
than an hour 1t is probable that the
gates will be only partially opened,
as work is not yet finished
Colonel Isaac Taylor, of the Canal
commission, made a five minute
speech in which he said the opening
of the canal was but the beginning of
a greater work which would connect
the great lakes of the north, with the
Mississippi river

London, Jan. 1.-THE war Office has
received the following from Lord
Roberts, dated Cape Town: "On the
18th the Beers made determined at
tack on French's advanced post, held
by the New Zealand mounted rifles
and a detachment of the first York
shires. The Boers were repulsed, hav-
ing twenty killed Their wounded
are estimated at not less than fifty.
The attack was preceded by long
range fire from one gun. Otherwise
the situation is unchanged"
London, Jan. 1880 p. m.-Pub-
lie anxiety regarding the advance on
Ladysmith, remains unappeased.
Vague rumors that a general engage
ment is progressing are based solely
on the belief that Buffers arrange
ments. for an advance would be com.
pleted on Monday or Tuesday. The
war office this afternoon posted this
notice:
"The following telegram is the only
news received in regard to Buffers
operations near Springfield"
The telegram then proceeds to re-
port the death of private from dysen-
terry at Springfield bridge camp, Jan
uary 18th, and the wounding of an
other private in reconnaissance
wards the Tugela river on January
18th.
General French's success, though
consoling to the British is recognized
as only side issue. The country
is grateful to learn that British losses
in this engagement were only six men
killed, and five wounded.
