Frosted combs will check egg pro-

For heavy breathing or rattling in
the throat we have found nothing bet

If.yOu mean to purchase eggs for set
ting. start early. Eggs are not apt to
hatch so well, nor are the chicks so
strong, if obtained from hens that
have been laying for many weeks.
TO feed a duckling ten weeks will
cost about five cents per pound. Labor.
marketing, etc, will add as much more
to the cost. The bird should weigh
five pounds and sell for more than fifty
cents to bring any profit.
1t is not bad idea for a poultryman
to have padlocks Oh the egg crates. 1t

customers who regularly expect first
class articles, and then it's proof that
they have not been tampered with.
The color of the newly hatched
chick does not always indicate what
the mature plumage will be. Those
who have bought eggs of pure bred
stock should, therefore, not be hasty
in passing judgment on the merits Of
the stock.
The cheapest way to rid poultry

sufficient salt added to make brine.
Apply the remedy once week for

Rough, scaly shanks spoil the APP

In the feeding of dairy cows, two
seasons are recognized by the average
dairyman. These are the winter feed

the former case the animals are entire

no opportunity for grazing. afforded.
The very opposite Of this is true dur
ing the summer season, the animals
being expected TO hunt their own liv-

transition from one season to another
frequently causes falling off In the

Feeding Morning Masl.

Sometimes experience upsets ones
plans, which were thought about right.
wonderfully and completely. For years
the writer has advocated the moderate
feeding of laying hens during the win
ter; feeding them enough, of course,
but feeding scanty rather than run
ming the risk of overfeeding and thus
shutting off the egg supply. A veter-
an poultryman who called at my farm
year ago, said that did not feed suf-
ficiently heavy of the morning mash,
so this winter we started out to see If
he was right, and found, TO our aston
ishment, that he was.
We now give the laying hens enough
of the warm mash in the morning so
that they eat all they want before it
gets cold. The remainder Is then gath
cred up and an hour later heated and
put in the trOughs again, when the
hens eat as ravenously of 1t as IL they
had had none an hour earlier. Result,
more eggs than in the previous win
ters from the same number of hens
and pullets. In trying TO figure out
the cause of this change it was con-
cluded that the hens were unable to
take much of the sticky mass in their
crops at first, but after drink of wa
ter and an hour of rest they were In
condition to take care of the balance,
really only getting in the two feeds
the quantity necessary for one feed,
and the equivalent of one good feed Of
grain. Try it the rest Of the winter
and see how 1t works with your poul.

NEGRO KILLS TWO
MEN In THEATRE
CREATES PANIC AMONG AUDI
ENcE, BUT PERFORMERS ON
THE STAGE CONTINUE LINES AS
THOUGH NOTHING HAPPENED.

Knoxville. February GA special to the
Journal and Tribune from Middlesboro.
Ky, tells of a double tragedy in the gal
lery Of the Princess theatre at Middles-
boro tonight during performance of
Vests minstrels.
John White, a negro ex-convict shot
and instantly killed Policeman John Burns
and accidentally killed John Sharp. a
switehman employed by the Louisville
and Nashville railroad.
The tragedy was the result of a threat
by the police officer made during the day
that he would arrest White for yagrancy.
White escaped, knocking down a negro
who attempted to stop him on the stair
way, using the butt of his pistol and
also running over the sheriff of Bell
county.
A posse is in pursuit. White Is a hotel
waiter and served term in the peniten-
tiary for cutting woman's throat. Great
excitement was caused in the theatre, and
a stampede and panic was only averted
by cool-headed persons in the large audi
ence, and by the Ministries, who went
along with the show as If nothing had
happened.

BLACK AND TANS
HAVE UPPER HAND
ROOSEVELT is ENDORSED BY RE-
PU6LIcANS OF THE FIFTH DIS
TRlcT IN MEETING AT EUFAULA
YESTERDAY.

Montgomery. February 6-(Speoial)-
With few repetitions of district COM
mittee meetings like those Of the Fifth
and Third districts held yesterday and
today in Tuskegee and EuCaula, it would
appear that the black and tam or Roose-
Welt wing of the republican party, is not
to have much trouble in capturing the
delegation from this state FOR the renom-
ination of Mr. Roosevelt for President.
At both of these meetings the presi-
dents referees are reported to have had
their own way. Referee I thompson and
Postmaster Hughes of Birmingham were
present at both of the meetings to see
that things went as they desired The
two meetings, which are said to have been
we'll attended, seem to have demonstrated
marked weakness on the part of the
lily whites in these sections there not
having been SO much as fight in either
for control.
The action taken in the two districts
calling for district conventions to select
district delegates. alternates, electors and
candidates for congress within the bounds
of the respective districts, would indicate
that the referees policy is changed from
the old republican policy in this state,
when all of the state delegation has been
selected by the delegates sent to the state
convention, the district and state dele
gates usually being the same. 1t is we'll re-
membered how disastrous was this policy
in Montgomery four years ago. when the
state convention. sought to be held in the
state capital, resulted In bloodshed.
The meeting held in Tuskegee yester-
day was remarkable for two reasons
there was not an iota of opposition TO the
Roosevelt referees and the committee
which was organized by. the lily white
convention in Birmingham in 1902 had
two negroes sit as alternates for white
members. Resolutions were passed endors
irg the administration of President Roose
welt and Charles Fl. Scott for national
commit eeman from Alabama. These reso-
lutions were proposed by Referee ThoMp
son. The convention was called to meet

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES MET.
Ninth Congressional Primary on April
11-Nc Opposition to Underwood.

The democratic executive committee OF
the Ninth congressional district held a
meeting at the courthouse yesterday and
made arrangements for the coming con-
gressional primary. 1t was decided to fol-
low the plan adopted by the state COM
mittee and each candidate was assessed
500 to defray the expenses. Each candi-
date must file his application twenty
DAYS before the primary so that his name
can be placed on the ticket.
Oscar W. Underwood, congressman from
this district will probably have no OPP
position and the primary on April II will
be a mere formality.
A special committee consisting of Lee
G. Bradley and Henry r. Howe was
named to arrange for the election OF
members of the executive committee.

composed of f. K. Campbell and Henry
