The board of registration will COM
plete their sessions on the 28th of the
month. The registrations up to date
are $40 voters in the first precinct of
Washburn; 727 votes in the third
precinct, and 36 votes at Houghton,
making total of 1883. Benoit has
not yet reported, but it is thought
that the regist' alton at that point
will run about sixty votes, and in
case that should be the figure, then
the total regis tration up to date
would be 1443 votes. 1t is quite
likely that the list will run up to

Commit Highway Robbery at
Mason


Sheriff Lien arrested Angus Quin n
and John Mcdonald, at Ashland :,
Monday, upon charge of h;ghwa y
robbery. The men were accused of
having entered the Anderson saloon
at Mason last Thursday night, and
compelling the keeper to hold up
his hands while they relieved the
place of something like $145. Then
they made their escape, and the
officers have spent several days
looking for them, with the result
that the supposed guilty parties
were captured as above. They were
arranged before Municipal Judge A.
M. Warden Tuesday. Owing to
pressure of political matters Judge
Warden called in Justice of the
Peace Fred I. Yates, and the latter
bound over the defendants, yester-
day. William Mcdonald, brother

A New Steamer i.

A new boat is to be placed on the
ferry line between Ashland and Bay
field next season, company for the
purpose of running it having been
formed by Ashland pa ties. The
new company is to be known by the
name of the Chequamegon Bay Trans
portation Company, and the incor
porators are E. O. Tarbox, Louis
Cartier and Captain VIM. Turgeon,
the latter being the owner OF the

speaking of the new departure in
business, says:
The new company is in corporated
for $500 and Of this amount ST.
900 is already paid in. Mr.. Cartier
and Captain Turgeon leave very soon
to let contract for q new boat to
cost not less than $4,000 and her
speed is not to be less than eighteen
miles per hour, with all the latest
improvements and able to carry not
less than five hundred passengers.
The steamer Mary Scott is to be
continued on her present run be-
tween Ashland and Washburn and
the new boat will run between
Ashland and Bayfield,, touching
at Wasbburn and La Pointe
each trip both ways, and will make
three trips each day, and will be at
the disposal of excursionists even
ings. This will be welcome news to
those who have cottages on Made

Coal For Duluth.

The Northwes tern Fuel COMPANY
received cargo Of coal at Duluth
Monday. It was disposed of at 81. 81
per ton, which is in striking con
trast with the prices charged in
Ashland and other points, where
prices have been $40 up. The Du-
luth dispatch says:
"The Northwes tern Fuel company
received about 1000 tons of hard
coal on the steamer City of Paris and
Yesterday a part of it was dis
tributed between the head of the
lake cities, and the balance was sent
to St. Paul and Minneapolis,
The coal beavers refused to unload
the coal until the company agreed to
allow them one ton each, which de-
mand was granted. This took a
bstantial amount from the Duluth
allowance Of 400 tons.
The company sold out what it had
to spare at $3.50 a ton. One ton
was allowed to each patron, and
many who wished to buy were dis
appointed.
Agent John W. Gibson. of this
city, still insists that his company
will have coal for the local mark ct
before the close of navigation.

used two boxes was entirely cured
and have not since had the slightest
symptom of the return of my trouble.
II had tried all the surrounding ply
sicians, but they did me no good, and
instead of getting better I grew worse

II can sincerely say to everyone
suffering with Kidney Trouble that
Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure them, for
they cured me satisfactorily and COM
pletely when all the doctors had failed"

POULTRY YARD p1CK1NGs.

Never keep ducks, geese or tur-
keys with the chickens.
Correct feeding means much to-
ward successful keeping.
Early Matched pullets are the most
profitable winter layers. :.
Give the fowls variety of food, in
Guiding some animal food.
High feeding is more than half
the rule to early maturity.
Laying hens need more food than
others-see that they get it.
Gull out all the poor layers. and
give the good hens chance.
Chickens of different ages should
not be allowed to run together.
The roosting house should be well
ventilated but free from drafts.
Good stock and good care are the
keys to successful poultry raising.
Filthy yards and houses invite dis
ease, and are sure to cause failure.
For fertile eggs the hens should
be in perfect health and condition.
If fowls are forced to stand in the
filth and mud, they will not thrive.
The litter should not be neglected
and allowed to decrease in quantity.
Milk is par excellence the best of
food for young chicks and old fowls.

varied Ration. for Hens.

An excellent plan to follow in feed
ing poultry is to give the birds wheat
one day, the following day oats, the
next barley, and SO on. A great deal
of inferior grain is sometimes pur-
chased for fowls, which is mis-
take. 1t is better plan to buy
the grains separately, and then, If
it is the wish to feed the birds on
mixed grains, it can be easily done
Although it may seem more expen.
sive to buy the good grain, it is in
the end much cheaper. Corn should
be given only in small quantities, and
then only during cold weather.

EXTRACTING HONEY.
Il Ii Some Trouble to Secure 1t, But
Additional Profits Pay for the
Extra Work,

I got my early instructions in Cali
fornia in 1875. My first lesson was
that lazy man would make lazy bees
and know that to be so. I prefer to
make extracted honey asthere is more
profit in it. The bees that will make
100 pounds of comb honey will make
$50 to 400 pounds of extracted honey if
properly attended to. The railroads
charge twice as much freight on comb
honey as they do for extracted and
the dead weight is about double. In

PROFITABLE INDUSTRY.
ant Occupation and One That
Pays Well.

AS an industry, squad raising re-
quires less capital and less work in
proportion to the returns than any
other business of similar character,
says the Washington Post. In the
first place, experience has taught
that the common pigeons of the
streets and alleys are not only the
healthiest and best brooders, but
that they also produce the best
squads, young birds that are easily
fattened and that are strong and
hardy. The high priced and fancy
breeds of pigeons, such as pouters,
tumblers, fantails, duchesses, Ant
werps, dragons, runts, silver dubs,
ETC., do not compare with the scrub
pigeon for the purposes of squad
production, so that at the outset the
person contemplating entering the
business is relieved of the necessity
of spending large sum Of money for
fancy birds.
AS for place in which to breed
pigeons an extensive structure is
not necessity nor is it even desir-
able, the only requisites being that
the structure should be warm in
winter and not too hot in summer,
free from dampness and,- if possible.
| with southern exposure; also, that
it should be free from rats and
mice. For this purpose nothing is
better than an empty garrett, well
provided with light and the floor
covered with gravel or cinders. All
cracks should be made tight in or
der to prevent drafts in winter time.
This last condition is much to be de-
sired if squads are to be raised in
the winter season, which is the time
when they are dearest, and conse.
quently, bring the best prices.
The most interesting and import.
ant part of the business is at the
time the young are Matched out. Un-
like chickens and turkeys, the feed
ing. of the young pigeons is attend
ed to by the parent birds, thus saw
ing the per on engaged in scuab
raising great deal of trouble which
in chicken raising must be attended
to. It seems that the pigeon has
never TeaCHeU tlldI StdSc Vi oAOlOuS
demonstration where the young birds
have to be fed artificially, but, like
the wild birds of the forest. the pig
con is one of the few domestic fowls
that attend to the feeding of their
young with what squad raisers call
''soft food" or pigeons milk" until
they are old enough to shift for
themselves. Thus the troublesome
part of the work of chicken raising
is absent in pigeon culture.
The young birds begin to eat grain
in about a week after they are
Matched, and then it is that the
SQUAD raiser should see to it that
they are kept stuffed with grain and
never hungry. The parent birds can
not be depended onto look after the
welfare of their progeny after the
''soft food" period has passed. They
have curious habit of stuffing one and
starving the other, fighting the starv.
ed bird off and feeding its share to
the favorite.
