Fox Hunting.

Col. K. s. Cobb of the Govern
or's staff has been very successful
in his fox chasing over at his lodge
In st. rammany Parish. Col.
Cobb now owns twenty.one fox
hounds, the finest pack Of dogs of
their breed in the south. Many Of
these dogs are from famous kennels
in Kentucky, and have taken prizes
in this field of sport. Since Nov.
Is, Col. Cobb has run down and
caught twenty-five foxes. The
ColoLel's stud of hunters has just
been Increased by the addition of
high. class steeplechaser, giving
him tour horses IN all. With
these mounts he is we'll equipped
for the chase. Last week he had
number of friends with him from
this city, who participated in an
exciting chase, and they were re-
warded by catching tive foxes.
When Col. Cobb first established
his lodge IN St. rammany the
good people of that section told
him that there was no such game
as foxes III that neck of the woods,
but since his success the entire
community is joining in with
sportmanlike ardor. Times Demo

French Viticulurists have found
that they can profitably substitute
wine for OATS in feeding
their horses. Bran is saturated
with the wine, taking the place of
a pound of oats. Here is sug-

in this perish. Until oats get
cheaper, they may find it economi'
cal to feed their stock on bran and
wine.
