more to do with the security or insecurity of a

AGAINST THE STEP.

New York, Feb. IA special cable
despatch to the Sun says: The I'M
perial Gazette publishes DR.. Won
Holleben's original despatch to Count
Won Bulow, who was then minister
of foreign affairs, regarding Great
Britains' attitude toward the United
States prior to the outbreak of the
Spanish American war. 1t refers es-
pecially to the incident of April IA,
1898, when, Germany alleges, the Brit
ish ambassador at Washington sug-
gested joint note declaring that
armed Intervention in Cuba was un-
justifiiable, which action England de-
MES. The despatch begins:
"The British ambassador today,
took, i'll very surprising way, the
initiative in a new collective step on
the part of the ministers. We sup
pose Queen Regent Christina must
have approached Queen Victoria to
this end. In accordance with the wish
of the English ambassador, we are tel
egraphing our government as follows. "
Then follows the text of the note
saying that the time had arrived
to remove the erroneous impression
which prevailed that armed interven-
ton on the part of the United States
in Cuba commanded the support and
approval of the civilized world.
Dr.. Won Holleben commented as
follows: II personally look rather
coolly upon the proposal. -
Emperor Williams marginal COM
ment is: II consider such manifes-
tation ill-advised. Pourparlers, there
fore, would be harmful. 1 am against
the STEP
The Emperor's surprise visit to the
British Ambassador before ten O'Clock
in the morning is generally connected
with the incident. 1t is rumored that
the Emperor showed himself irritated,
even indignant, it having been rep
resented to him that Viscount Gran
borne statement was aimed at arous-
ing anti German feeling in the United
States in connection with Prince Hen
rvs visit.
This view is largely accepted by the
Germans and accounts for the rancor-
uos feeling that is growing up around
the incident. A more sober version
of the incident is that the Emperor
desired himself to inform the Ambas-
ssador of his intention to publish the
dispatches and to ascertain the Brit
ish attitude in view of that intention.
London is wrathful or disposed to
suspend judgment. Pauncefote is
non committal, official Washington is
amused, or is disposed to believe, Ell

Pauncefote to his fellow ambassadors,

of the Austrian minister. England's

FERTILE EGGS.

1t is most necessary that eggs should
be fertile about the time they are de-
sired for incubation, whether they are
to be placed in an incubator or
to be distributed under hens Infer
tile eggs at such time are an abomi-
nation, delusion and blaster of flu
ture hopes The first essential in this
direction will be to have healthy
stock which had healthy growth all
through their growing stage, and the
sexes should be as far from kinship as
possible. 1t is also necessary that the
parents be strong in vitality. The
breeding stock can be too old or too
young; too decrepit or too immature.
1t is a matter Of regret that no one
can fully control fertility to its fullest
extent, but it can be aided largely by
mating and by giving proper care and
attention prior to and during the incu-
batting season. Exercise is necessary
to procure the greatest fertility in
eggs. A balanced ration will furnish
not far from the right kind of food,
which is not only essential to good
health, but to keep up that vigor so
requisite in breeding stock of all
kinds. The food should contain both
animal matter and grains, and should
be provided neither more nor less in
quantity than is required. We would
not only have the egg fertile, but we
would have that fertility strong and
vigorous. 1t is not enough that the
egg will hatch, but it should also hatch
a strong and vigorous chick that will
live and overcome some of the strong
est drawbacks known to the system of
rearing chicks. What is the good to
hatch chick and have it die when
day or two old because of lack of vi

SEVEN KILLED.

Little Rock, Ark, Feb. 15.-Seven
men were killed and at least fourteen
were seriously injured by huge
boulder, weighing fifteen tons, which
crashed into the caboose of work
train on the Choctaw, Oklahoma, and
Gulf railroad, twenty miles west of
Little Rock, Friday evening. AS the
train was passing under the high
bluffs bordering the river two miles
west of Little Maumello, the crew saw
a heavy rock rolling down the steep
declivity, which had been detached
from the hillside by the rains
The train was going slowly but was
almost upon the rock when it struck
the track. Engineer MAJOR reversed
his engine at once but the train struck
it with almost full force The caboose
was at the head of the train and was
shivered into splinters, Most of the
men who were killed and injured
were laborers.

FEEDING IN CONFINEMENT.

When one has only limited amount
of space it is essential that the fowls
should be in runs varyingin size ac-
cording to the extent of the piece of
land and the number of fowls that are
to be kept thereon. 1t is remarkable
how some of the poultry keepers
in some of our large towns, even
under the most adverse circum-
stances, have been so successful.
Fowls III confinement have to be Civ
en- more food than when at liberty,
because those that can forage all day
are able to pick up for themselves a
large amount of natural food hence,
the fowls when kept under these con-
ditions do not cost so much to feed as
fowls in confinement.
1t is essential when one has fowls
in confinement to supply them with
an abundance of natural food, and
thus in a certain degree compensate
for their confinement. Grit, meat
and plenty of green food must be sup
piled. During the winter it is well
to add little animal meal to the
grain mixture about four or five times
week, and ground bone mixed with
the bone food twice a week. In the
afternoon corn, wheat or oats may be
given. Many poultry keepers are
in the habit of buying mixed feed,
but it is much better to buy the differ
ent grains and mix them at home, as
in this manner one knows what pro-
portion to use daily; in the middle of
the day some green stuff may be
given, such as cabbage leaves, etc
Water is an important point, and
one that is too often neglected by
poultrymen 1t is one of the cheap
est things in connection with poultry
keeping, and yet it is fact that it is
the most frequently neglected. The
water dish should be washed out every
day and scalded once week. Clean
illness is of the utmost Importance
with fowls in confinement, and too
much care cannot be given to this
matter The interior of all the houses
should be whitewashed once in every
two or three months, or oftener, and
the nest boxes, and perches removed
and cleaned in order to get rid of the
lice which congregate in these places.

QUALITY OF HARE MEAT.

If any one has the least doubt as to
the quality of Belgian hare meat and
the cheapness of producing the same,
he can easily get rid of such doubts
by giving them trial They will not
even have to wait until the meat is
cooked and ready to eat but suspicion
will begin to leave rapidly at the sight
of hare dressed ready for the stew
pot. The beautiful whiteness and the
tender fish like meat will on
sight create an appetite Nothing
either wild or domesticated equals it,
in my Judgment, 1t is simply won
derful, the amount of meat a few
breeding hares will furnish, and it is
more wonderful how fast the young
hares will grow and fatten on a small
amount of food AT eight weeks of
age they are good fries, furnishing
more than double the amount of meat
chicken will at the same age At
six months old they will weigh eight
to nine pounds and are fattened out
into the best quality of meat.

VACCINATION

Chicago, Feb. 4.-Every employee
of every railroad entering Chicago,
from the president to the messenger
boy, will be vaccinated between now
and Monday or lose his position.
Every car which arrives from the city
from every direction will be subjected
to fumigation for six hours under the
direction of the health department of
the city before other passengers are
allowed to enter it. These precau-
tions were agreed upon at meeting
OF the general managers of all the rail
roads entering Chicago. The Chicago
d Alton railroad and the Illinois Cen
trail began to put them into effect on
Thursday. The other roads will begin
today. All will continue the meas
ures until the small pox epidemic,
which is ravaging the northwest, and
the Mississippi valley states shall be
stamped out. AT the meeting of the
managers the condition of the plague
in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota,
Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and
Illinois was declared alarming, and it
was stated that the contagion had
spread as far south as Mississippi and
Alabama. The general managers pass
ed resolutions calling on the medical
advisers of the road to take steps to
check the disease and giving them
full authority to use whatever meas
ures they deemed best

Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi-

AGRICULTURAL.
DEVELOPING HEIFERS.

There is a material difference of
opinion among dairy writers as to how
heifers intended for thesdairy should
he fed. On one side it is maintained
that they should receive no grain what
ever, on the other liberal grain feed
ing is advocated, AS is very com
mon when views meet and clash both
sides run to extremes To say that in
developing the heifer no grain should
be fed is going too far, i'll our judg-
ment, although it is true that fatten-
ing grains should be avoided. The
tendency to lay on flesh can be Guilt
waited not only in breed but i'll in
dividuals, and like other kinds OF eul-
ture it is more effective if begun with
the young animal. At the same time
the objection to grain should not be
carried to the extent of allowing the
heifer to go insufficiently nourished.
In the development of dairy cali,
however. the feeding should consist
very largely of coarse forage One
of the points to be developed is large
feeding capacity, and capacity, too,
TO turn the coarser forage into milk.
To do this a development of paunch
and roominess in the digestive sys-
fem is essential A well established
dairy point is the wedge shape OF the
COW. and the straight level underline
that is valued i'll the beef animal is
not wanted in the dairy cow In 9th
er words, a tendency to what is called
"pot- gut" that is fatal to beef excel
lence, is an advantage to the dairy
animal. To secure it is easy enough,
too easy in fact, as is often found by
those who are raising animals IN
tended for meat production. 1t is a
common fault in growing beef calves
on skim milk and can easily be pro-
duced by compelling the calf to rely
too exclusively on the milk, whereby
if is compelled to drink too large
quantities in order to get enough to
eat. Pigs are often made pot Quilted
bv the same course of treatment. In
developing the dairy heifer, whose
life work will be to consume large
quantities of coarse forage, the same
thing, not carried to an extreme OF
course, should be produced by making
the dairy heifer depend mainly on the
coarser foods This, however, does
not preclude the idea of feeding some
grain although care should be taken
that it is not grain Of fattening kind.
