Washington, Sept. 25.-- The
singular circumstance reported
by the :erman merchantmen in
the cabir:rram from Port Spain;
was explained by the reception OF
two cablegranls from United
States Minister Bowen at Cara
cas- at the state department yes
terday afternoon. The first dis
patch stated that the Venezuelan
gunboat kestaurador had APP
proached Ciudad Boliver flying
the American flag. She did not
lower the flag until she was very
close to the shore, when she
opened fire on the insurgents
from her position, creating great
CONSERVATION. When the Re
staurador returded to La Guayra
the fact was reported to Minister
Bowen, who Indignantly de-
handed a complete apology from
the Venezuelan government and
also that the flag of the United
States be saluted by the offend
ing ship.
The second cablegram from
Mr.. Bowen reports that the Ven
ezuelian government promptly
acceeded to these terms, made a

to Our Growing Town.
While the business men of Jen-
nings are pushing things looking
to the advancement of our town,
and while various business
schemes are under consideration
that will doubtless result in
bringing more enterprises into
our midst, nevertheless the fact
stares US in the face that Jen-
nings stands in need of an opera
house. Not only is it needed for
public meeting place (for at
present we have no public hall
sufficiently large to hold an au-
dience Of any size), but look at
the large number of people here
who are DESTROYS of attending a
good theatre, and!th various en-
rtainments that are held in an
opera house for public amuse-
ment.
We would suggest that a stock
company be formed for that pur-
pose, and we will venture to say
that an opera house will fill a
long felt want, What say you,
business men. A word to the
wise is sufficient.

BAD ROADS DID IT.

a farmer old. so we have been told.
With a team of horses strong,
Drove down the road with a heavy load
While singing a merry song.
But his mirth in song was not very long,
For his horses gave leap;
As he run amuck. in the mud he stuck.
Clear up to his axles deep.
Bad roads did It.
And a wheelman gay went out one day
For joyful, merry spin:
With the weather bright his heart felt light
As he left the country inn;
But he went not far. when he felt Jar.
Which started his troubles and cares;
He was laid up III, and the doctors bill
Came In with the one for repairs.
Bad roads did 1t.
In an automobile. OF wood and steel
a millionaire prim and neat
Went out for a ride by the rivers side
In style that was hard to beat.
But alas! he found that the broken ground
And the ruts and the holes so great
Had smashed a wheel OF his automobile:
What he said we cannot relate.
Bad roads did 1t.
But were glad to say there shines ray
Or hope that will right this wrong.
When In every state they will legslate
To help the good roads along.
So the man with his wheel or automobile
Will never again get the blues.

POULTRY YARD POINTERS.

In feeding fowls study nature, and
give them things they like the best.
Sour milk will bring better returns
fed to hens than when even fed to pigs.
Turkeys when first hatched are very
delicate and require considerable care.
Young chicks should be fed often,
but never given more food than they
will clean up.
Game chickens have more meat in
proportion to their height than any
other breed of fowls.
When the chickens are growing fast,
II is a good plan to mix little bone
meal in their soft feed.
Scaly legs can be cured with an oint-
ment made of two parts of glycerin
and one part carbolic acid.
While it is at no time advisable TO
keep food of any kind before the fowls
all the time, it will be an advantage
to keep milk where they can drink all
they want.
Fowls do not run together in large
numbers. They Will always divide into
hocks Of small size and will select diff
ferent feeding grounds, always provid-
ed they have the opportunity.
A growing chicken. like growing
animal, requires plenty of good,
wholesome food supplied literally and
often in order to enable them to grow
and mature rapidly and to develop
properly.
Unlike the foal, the calf. the pig and
the lamb, the chick must depend on
the outsider instead of its mother for
food. 1t is this fact that is response
BILE for the high death-rate in the yards
of many beginners and some that are
not beginners. Nature supplies the
chick with food for the first "a hours
and a wonderful constitution.-Rur

THE WEIGHT OF EGGS.
Daring Incubation II should he StuS-
led and Regulated with Pains-
taking Care.

The following directions are issued
by the West Virginia experiment sta
tion for finding the loss in weight of
eggs during incubation:
After placing the eggs upon the
trays ready for the incubator, set the
trays upon a pair of scales reading to
ounces and note the total weight of
the eggs and trays. (The trays should
be thoroughly dry.) After few days
weigh again. Subtract this from the
first weight. This will give the actual
loss in the weight of the eggs.
Example, Suppose that you have
20S eggs on the trays; that the first
weight with trays is "a pounds .
ounces, and that on the sixth day the
weight is % pounds ounces. Then
the los in weight is 12 ounces. Now
look in the table for the loss in weight
of 100 eggs for six days. This is 10
ounces. Ten ounces multiplied by 2.0S
gives 20.S ounces, which is the calcu-
lated loss for 2Os eggs for six days.
Therefore the eggs have not been los
ing weight as rapidly as they should,
and the eggs should be given more
ventilation or the incubator should be
removed to drier location. ct is as
sumed that the eggs are kept uniform
ly at the proper temperature) After
the eggs have been tested for the in
fertile ones, weigh again and proceed
as before.
Rules.-lf the eggs have lost too
much weight, give more moisture, or
less ventilation. but in reducing venti-
lation great care should be used, as
pure air in the egg chamber is abso-
lutely necessary. II the eggs have not
lost enough weight, open the venti-
lators, or place the incubator in a
drier place. The table shows normal
loss in weight of 100 eggs in ounces for
the first 10 days of incubation:

FREE MAIL DELIVERY.
Its Advantages Are So Many That
Every Farmer In the Land
should Enjoy Them

After enjoying the benefits OF free
mail delivery for two years on trial
route in this county | would say the
advantages are too many for one to
be deprived of. This is Emile
route with two post offices located
thereon. If each household were
to send for their mail it would re-
quire 200 miles of daily travel, as
the families and post Offices are now
situated. 1t is great advantage to
have the mail distributor act as n
common carrier in delivering small
parcels or any article that can be
carried in buggy, and is also quite
an income to the carrier. The car
rier can have his rig closed and
kept comfortable in cold, stormy
weather. which would not be prac-
ticablc for the patrons in going after
or sending mail. The present cost
ly experiment of free mail delivery
only benefits the few and the time
for closing all small post offices and
delivery of mail to all the inhabit-
ants OF our land is not only just
and economical measure but will
save the expense of establishing these
routes that will necessarily have to
be differently arranged. 1t would be
more economical of time and labor
for the ruralist to establish routes
and pay carriers than to follow the
old plan of carrying their mail. The
advantages Of daily mail, socially and
Intellectually, are apparent. 1t causes
more social and business correspond
ence, and it brings the ruralist into
daily knowledge of the business
world-changing markets. 1t in
creases the value of rural homes. It's
influence in the love for home is no
ticeable in the younger members OF
ly supplied at their homes with the
best agricultural and literary produc-
tions. Uncle Sam is far behind our
slow European cousins in regard to
mail delivery. A competent survey
or could quickly and cheaply locate
routes, as the most of our counties
have maps showing all roads. Where
n full route of 90 or 2j miles could not
be had, there would be no trouble in
employing men for shorter routes,
so that all families along roads could
have their mail delivered at their
homes and persons living farther
back could have their box as is often
the case under the present arrange
ment George NJ. Warren, in Prairie
Farmer.
