Next Saturday,


Dadeville, June 2-The preliminary
trial of Charles Sanford, charged with
numbering Lee Temples, is set for next
Saturday before Justice w. p Holley.
Temples never regained consciousness
after he was shot. but fingered from
Wednesday until Friday morning at Q
O'CLOCK. Temples is survived by a wife
and three small children. The bullet
that killed him went in on top of his
head, near the centre. and went through
his brains into his neck. Sanford was
badly cut up, but is getting well fast.
The ground is good wet in this sec

Farmers are all feeling good, and, as a
general thing. claim that there is time
enough yet to make a cotton crop. If

of the crop has come up in the last

Poultry interests

Remember that comfort and intelli-
gent care will make any vigorous HOOK
of hens pay, and pay well.
The hen that is housed out and fed
properly and does not lay an egg as
often as every other day at least is
generally either lousy and excessively
fat or lacking in vigor, or both.
To reduce the condition of the Fat
hen, feed sparingly of bulky but not
fattening food, such as cut grass or
clover and roots Gall they will eat)
and lightly of oats and wheat mixed;
no corn, plenty of grit, shells and fresh
water.
If the hens roosting room receives
an application of whitewash once in
six months and the under side of her
perch is painted with carbolinium, the
hens will not be troubled with lice,
especially if the drOppings be removed
every week.
The most effectual way OF getting
the necessary vigor into the flock
is by the introduction of new blood.
A good way to do this is to place with
them a mature and vigorous purely
bred cockerel. The next crop of layers
will show wonderful improvement in
this respect and many more eggs will
be the result.
Flocks of purely-bred fowls gener-
ally do far better than mongrels as
layers.
Do not under any circumstances,
early in the season, remove the chicks
from under the hen, nor feed them
before forty-eight hours from the time
they begin to hatch.
Give the setting hen busting with
insect powder as often as once
week: also dust her nest.
Keep the young chicks dry, with
plenty of fresh water and grit in their
feed and they will not have bowel
trouble H. l.. Blancnaru.

LARGE Combs Desirable.

1t seems to be a common trait TO
the American people to think LOT
themselves alone, and to disagree with
the opinions of others, no matter how
much wisdom there may be in the
thoughts of those we oppose. we are
too liable to allow some foolish notion
to enter our head and drive better
ones out of it. We follow some lead
or fad and keep going until we wake
I'D to the fact that we have gone
wrong.
There seems at this time to be
rage in this country for small COMBS
on all single comb varieties, and IN
the mad rush to secure them natures
laws are forgotten and we rush madly
on, trying to do the very things that
nature tells us should not be done.
The claim is made that large combs
or the size nature saw fit to decorate
the small breeds with freeze much
easier than the small ones produced
by man by the radical mating. We
doubt this statement. In fact, our
own experience has taught us the WIS
dom of letting nature take care or ner
own. When she produces breed with
a large comb, she invariably furnishes
to that comb a sufficient circulation OF
blood to protect it under ordinary cir
cumstances, and when weather is Sc
we're enough to freeze the comb OF a
Leghorn or Minorca, it is entirely too
cold for Plymouth Rocks or Cochlns 10
be out of doors.
It seems that nature intended the
non-setting varieties to have large
combs, and when we breed them
smaller we invariably injure the egg
production, and, what is worse, we
ruin the looks of the female by giving
a large per cent of them small, erect
comb that does much to disfgure them
as show specimens. In fact, they
should be disqualified for it. :,
If we would study nature more and
fad less, we would make greater
strides, not alone in fancy points, but
in commercial value as well. l have
just inspected a flock of Leghorns.

The males have short, low combs, and
the entire frame of the bird is re-
duced in proportion-short body, short
legs-dumpy, half-grown, poorly shap-
ed specimens. The females in this
yard have erect combs, short backs,
bodies and legs, and one glance would
convince anyone familiar with the
breeding of poultry that the egg pro-
duction has been reduced in proper
ton to the other deformities. Let's

The Evening Feed.

The heavy meal Tor the laying mems
should be at night, or rather late in
the afternoon, just in time for it to
be consumed by nightfall. If it con-
sists of mixed ground grain made
into a mash and fed from a trough,
it should be given half an hour before
the hens will go to roost, as the OBJ
ject is to have them go on their
perches with full crops, thus providing
them with nourishment throughout
the greater part of the long winter
night In this manner the animal heat
is maintained which is so essential to
the well-being of the flock.
But most egg farmers recommend
whole grain for the last meal of the
day. This should be thrown in the
litter on the floor of the poultry
house, the loose material being stirred
up with the feet as the grain is scat
tered from the hand. This is done that
the hens may be put to the necessity
of undergoing the exercise OF scratch
ing it out. If fed according to this
plan, the proper time to introduce the
feed into the hen house is between
three and four o'clock in the after
noon during the shortest days of win
ter. The fact should be kept in mind
that the object is to keep the hens
at work up to the moment OF going
to roost, and when that moment ar
rives each one of them, as reward
of her work, shall have acquired a
full meal. This is the most important
meal of the day. If there is to be
any slackness in attentions to the
flock let it be in the forepart OF the
day. as the hens will submit with
some grace to poor breakfast, but
will not tolerate a badly prepared or
a scanty supper. They will protest
against the treatment in way which
will be understood by the owner.
A very large proportion of poultry
men vigorously oppose the use OF
anything but whole grain for the even
ing meal but with due Difference to
the opinions of these people, the
writer believes that a warm mash
composed of equal parts of cornmeal,
ground oats and bran, is just as ef-
fective an egg producer when fed at
night as is whole grain. In fact we
have had experiences which incline
advocacy of the whole grain for the
last feed of the day. A well filled
crop of warm mash will keep the
hens comfortable during the night and
they will come down from the perches
very hungry in the morning. We want
them to be so hungry that they Will
Immediately set to work in the litter
us to the belief that a great many
people are wrong in their persistent
on the floor and scratch as though
they were trying to dig up the earth.
All the food which they get during the
forepart of the day we want them to
obtain in that way. The hens should
never be given their fill of food of any
kind in the morning, but should bel
restricted to just enough of it to take
off the sharpness of their appetites.
The afternoon feed is the one that
counts, and let it be what it may, it
should be given in such quantities that
no hen in the flock will go on the
perch hungry. Hens fed in this way
will never become overfat, and 1t will
be we'll for the inexperienced to ac-
cept the fact that hens can easily be
made too fat to lay.
