Corn For Poultry.

Corn is one of the staples as poultry
food, and yet We can trace large per
cent. of the failures to it's abuse. If
given to fowls daily it will produce
fat and this in time completely ruins
the fowl 80 far as laying is concerned,
but if fed in moderation, as a change
from oats, wheat and peas, it makes
an almost indispensable supply. 1t
is excellent also for growing chickens,
but these, as with the old fowl, it
must be fed sparingly. During very
cold weather without corn it is we'll
nigh impossible to keep the hens lay
ing, but even then best results are
obtained by partially roasting it.
For fattening poultry for market
meal takes first place, and the work
can be accomplised several days
quicker than when other is used.
When preparing poultry for market
feed all they will eat, but when feed
ing hens for eggs let corn be only an
occasional feed, or only a partial
ration if given daily. Oats should
be the principal grain food for laying
hens, the corn being used simply as
change. When thus fed it pro-
duces most excellent results.

The Cotton Outlook.

The great rise in the price of cotton
for present and future delivery makes
it certain that the growing crop will
bring good prices. even if there
should be decline from the preeent
high figures.
All reports show that the crop is
late, but in most sections cultivation
has been proceeding rapidly, and
there are generally good stands, and
the backwardness can be made up
with usual seasons from now On.
The incentive of high prices will
cause unusual care to be taken by
cotton growers in the cultivation,
picking and marketing Of the crop,
and the cotton States will almost GER
tainly receive more money for this
years cotton than ever before.

The Treaty Dead.

Washington, July 24-The treaty
providing for the acquisition by the
United States of the Danish West
India islands officially died today. If
Denmark should conclude to sell the
islands to the United States it will
be possible to revive the provisions Of
the treaty which has just failed;
meantime the position of the State
Department is comfortable, for hav-
ing done its part toward completing
the bargain the American government
of course could not sanction the sale
OF the islands by Denmark to any
other government.

Frightened Grand Jury.

Jackson, Ky, July 24-Charles
Green, who testified that he saw the
men with Curtis Jett when the latter
is alleged to have shot Cockrill and
that he could identify them if he
saw them, was taken again before the
grand jury. Spicer and Britton
were presented to him. he said they
were not the men he saw with Jett.
1t is said tonight that threats have
been made against Green and that be
was intimidated so that he failed to
identify the assassins of Cockrill. It
is now charged that the pending in
vestigation of the grand jury has
been so interrupted by intimidating
some witnesses and preventing the
appearance ofsothers thatitis deemed
useless to continue the investigation.
By a vote of s to the grand jury
refused to indict Deputy Sheriff VIM.
Britton on the charge Of being an &C.
cessory to the murder of Cockrill.
The jury also failed to indict As
bury Spicer on the ground of insult
frient evidence.

Chester Starts Road Building.

Chester, July % In response to
the announcement made by the
County Commissioners that work on
permanent roads would be begun in
that part of the county which tffe.ed
the greatest inducement in the way
Of money and rock, many enthu:i-
astic meetings have been held by the
farmers throughout the county.
Monday the board decided that the
Columbis road should be worked
first, $1,000 having been donated.
The work will extend to the three
mile post, and will then be begun on
the Rossville road and worked to the
third mile post on that road. Pr.
den's bridge road will also be worked
to the three mile post.
Other portions of the county offered
great inducements. In Mr.. T. J.
Cunnigham's neighborhood about
Woodward church, money and rock
were offered and a team of eight
mules for part of the time. Rod
man section donated $500. From
the Brick house on that road to
Rocky creek, distance of two miles,
S400 was donated. The people are
much interested in this work, and in
few years bad roads in this county
will be a matter of history. Mr..
Anderson of Lowryville was elected
overseer of the road machinery.

How John Allen Failed.

Ex-Congreesman John Allen, of
Mississippi, known far and wide as an
incompatible wit, is one of the COM
missioners of the St. Louis exposition.
The other day a friend asked him
what he was doing for the exposition.
mot 80 very much," answered AL
len, "and some of my best efforts mis-
carry. I went down to Arkansas to
get the Legislature to make an appro-
priation for an exhibit. When I ar
rived at Little Rock, sort of recep-
tion was rendered me by former resi-
dents of Mississippi, great many
having come across the river into that
State. Well, the next day they got
the two houses together in joint ses-
sion 30 that I would not have to make
two speeches. I remarked upon the
gratitude I felt for the great honor
done me The night before and s.id
while appreciated it, I could not, as
loyal Mississippiap, but regret that
80 many Of her sons had left her to
become residents of Arkansas. Mis-
sissippi,' I said, 'is great State,
with many resources and capable of
the highest development. I am sure
if these former residents of that
commonwealth now living in Arkan-
sas had remained in Mississippi and
stood trial, they would have been &C.
quilted by the jury It seeme,"
continued Mr.. Allen with show of
regret, "that there was a county
treasurer who had defrauded in Mis-.
sissippi and sheriff that had got
away after making big sale, who
were members of the Legislature,
and they look my remarks personally.
On account of their efforts the appro-
priation was not what We expected"

PREHISTORIC COOKERY.
Great Ovens That Were Used nv I'll,
Early Inhabitants of the salt
River valley.

just south of Tempe, in the Salt
river valley, Arizona, are found the re-
mains Of extensive buildings, sup
posed to have been even larger than
the famous Casa Grande. They are
now but a mass of mounds, but the
foundations of one which has been
recently traced measures 275 feet in
length and 1870 feet in width. Ex-
cayations have brought to light a num-
Der of eastufas, or ovens, of such gener-
Gus dimensions that they must have
sufiiced for entire cities. Several were
found measuring 16 feet in depth by
20 in width. Nearly all were lined
with copper carbonate ore, that has
fused in places, forming a metallic
sheet.
A study of the ground shows that
after the Goals had burned down.
they were drawn out, and the cavity
was practically closed Into the hole
were piled the beans, the corn and
the mescal root until the top of the
pile was level with the surface of
the ground.
Over all appears to have been spread
thick roofing of mud. a quantity of
water being added before the es-
tufa was made air tight.
The mass was probably then al
lowed TO cook for a number Of hours.
something after the manner of a
Rhode Island clamhake.
1t is further coniectured from the
corn found in earthen jars that after
being steamed the corn was then
dried to become the staple article
Of food for the winter. In the same
mounds were found number Of
stone metatis and grinders, showing
the primitive process of dwelling. and
a large variety Of pottery, some in an
excellent state of preservation. In
shape and decorations, the ollas. OF
water jars, closely resemble those
made by the Zuni. Pueblo and Man,
cipa Indians to-day The glaze and
texture, however, are superior.
