The Despised Hen.

AS an example oflittle things and
what they sometimes amount to in
the aggregate, some statistics as to
work and value OF the industrious
hen in West Virginia makes inter-
esting reading. They are statistics
which are not OF the usual dry char
acter, either
The West Virginia Experiment
Station has just issued a bulletin in
which it throws a great deal of light
on this matter According to this
bulletin, in the year 1898 the value
of West Virginia poultry and eggs
sold was -, 1882, IS9, or 5 per cent
more than the value of all the sheep,
IS per cent more than the value of
all the swine, enough to purchase
five times all the commercial ferti-
lizers used, or 8 per cent more than
the value of the entire yield Of oats,
rye, buchwheat and potatoes. No
field crop, with the exception of
wheat, corn and hay, equaled in val
ne the poultry product. The amount
of taxes collected in the State was
81 ,13l 81, which the poultry product
would pay twice and have enough
left to buy all the sheep left over one
year old in the State. The value of
the egg production alone was more
than twice enough to support the
State University, normal schools,
asylums and penal institutions.

Obituary.

Last Tuesday morning, Oct. s, al
4:2o O'Clock, Mr.. T. B. Petefish de.
parted this life. Mr.. Petefish has
been in failing health for long time
but last January began to materially
fail in health, and has been confined
to his bed since last April. During
his illness he has been under the
constant care and attention of his
devoted children, who have done
everything possible to make his clos.
ing hours comfortable.
Thomas B. Petefsh was born in
Rockingham county, Virginia, Aug.
7, 1883, being 6S years 2 months Of
age at the time of his death. In
early childhood he moved with his
parents to Cass county, Illinois.
On June %, 1859 he was married to
Miss AIDA G. Parkinson, of Curran,
Sangamon county, Illinois, who died
October 26, 1886. From 1862 until
1866 he travelled through Montana,
Washington and Oregon for his
health, returning to Illinois, but in
1867 ives again compelled to move
west on account of failing health.
He located in Douglas county, Kan
sas, where he remained until 1903,
when he moved to Meade county
where he has since resided. He
leaves family of seven children,
one son and six daughters, to sur
vive him.
Mr.. Petehsh had many warm
friends who sympathize with his
family. He was a man of strong
character, with those qualifications
of honesty and integrity which made
him a most excellent citizen. Up
to the time of his confinement he
was a frequent visitor at our office,
and we regarded him as one of our
best friends, and the family have
our deepest sympathy.
The funeral services were held at
the M. E. church Wednesday after
noon, under the auspices of the
Meade Lodge of Odd Fellows, to
which order Bro. Petefish had been
a member for over forty years, hav-
ing joined the order at Virginia City,
Illinois at the age of IL. The ser
mon was preached by Rev. Reace
and the remains were laid in their
final resting place in Graceland
cemetery.

'CltlZen'S" tickets will not be
used in the elections of county COM
missioners and township officers in
the state this year, or if they are
used the result of the election will
be invalidated. The new election
law enacted last winter provides that
the name "Citizens" ticket cannot
go on the ballot. AS is usual, in
cases where party lines are tightly
drawn, this word has been used to
great extent this summer in naming
tickets. One of the committees in
charge of Citizens movement in
the western part of the state has re-
quested the Attorney General to set
tie the question of whether such a
ticket can be printed on the ballot.
Assistant Attorney General Clayton
has decided that the use of such a
ticket is not authorized by the law
enacted last winter.-Topeka Her
