GROUND BONE FOR POULTRY.

There can be no possible doubt of the
value of ground bone for poultry but there
Is considerable doubt as to the value of the
bone and meat which Is placed on
the market in the form of animal meal.
Much of 1t Is good but a great deal of 1t
has more or less tainted meat ground with
the bones which are not always in the
best condition. 1t is much better to buy
a bone mill and do the grinding of the
bones at home. 1t Is slow and hard work
but the fowls do not require much of the
meal so that it pays we'll to de it. The
bones for this purpose should be green
bones; that is, bones from which the meat
has Just been cut. If there are particles
of meat clinging to the bones they may
be ground with the latter provided such
meat is fresh and untainted. Only enough
of the bones should be ground for feeding
two. or not more than three days, and it
would be better to grind them daily if
possible. In the feeding Of meat it is al
ways best to buy what is wanted from the
butcher. being careful to buy only The
untainted meat, and either grind it in Il
meat grinder or chop it fine in a wooden
DOW and feed it with bran mash or mixed
with sons small grain like wheat. Usual
ly a teaspoonful every other day to each
fowl Will be enough TO supply their wants
In this direction. provided they are prop
erly fed In other ways. BE cautious and
not over-feed of the meat or it will faint

ARTISTIC FARM BRIDGES.

On many farms brooks or a gully make
1t necessary to span the space in order to
save time in driving around. Usually the
plan Is to contrive some way to ford the
stream If it is possible. and. If not, to erect
q bridge in the cheapest possible manner.
OF course the wise men makes 1t safe for
his animals but usually lets the matter
end there. Surely it costs but little moro
to erect ratings as a further safeguard
and nothing additional except a little labor
to make the bridge attractive. AS a mat
ter Of common sense the foundation to the
bridge should be built In the best manner
and the planks and stringers used should
be sufficiently heavy and Of the best quail
ity OF lumber. The foundations Of the rail-
ing should be strong and of good material
and then the ornamentation may be read
lily added by cutting strips Of limbs and
leaving the bark on, bending and fasten-
ing to the structure in ornamental forms.
A little time is required but the improve
ment will pay for the trouble Then go
a little farther and set a vine or two in
the bank at the base Of the bridge and
train it over the foundation and up over
the structure. American ivy or ampelop-

for this purpose. Only recently q friend

rREArlNe sHYlNe HoRsEs.

our correspondent says lHdt IN nine
cases out of ten q horse that shys can be
greatly improved If not wholly cured by
the removal of the blinders. A simple
remedy and certainly worth trying. Then
there Is a possibility that defective eye
sight may be at the bottom of the trouble
and should such be the case, all the more
reason why the binders should be re-
moved. There Is probably no cure for
shyness except to get the animal used TO
seeing strange things and by treating it
kindly, seek to break the habit. If the
binders are removed and the animal has
free use of its eyes and may thus be the
more willing to be led up to the object
which causes it to Shy and If petted, and
treated kindly and gently. is quite likely
to overcome it's fears unless the object

bile. when a longer time will be required.
APPLES HIGH IN PRICE.
From all reports received from various
, apple sections 1t is almost a certainty tkat
apples will be high this all and winter
and the man who has a fair crop of good
fruit is 10 be congratulated. This is the
season to carry out the experiment of sell
ing the first grade of apples in baskets
or other small receptacles rather h
barreling them. The city consumer is not
likely to be deferred by the high price of
the fruit from having apples this winter,
but he is less likely than ever to buy in
packages of large size. although just as
much fruit may be consumed as in pre-
vious years. Use the small package, have
the first grade of fruit Of the finest speci-
mems and wrap each one in tissue paper.
The second grade do not wrap and the
third grade sell for what it will bring
Anything below the third grade would bet
ter be kept at home and cut up as green
food for the stock If 1t Is too bad to make
apple sauce Of for the family table. Or
the packages containing the first and Sec
ond grades of fruit attach labels which
will show where the fruit comes from,
which will help ones sale next season
Unless your apple crop is very large Oh
very poor it will not be nearly SO profit
able to market the fruit in barrels as in
the smaller packages.

EXPLAINS HEARST CHARGE
REPRESENTATIVE SULLWAfS RE-
PLIES TO ACCUSATION OF
NEW YORK EDITOR.

Washington, Feb. 15.-The Sullivan.
Hearst episode had another airing in
the house during the day when Mr..
Sullivan, again rising to question OF
personal privilege, declared that Mr..
Hearst had ignored his offer to make a
state ment concerning his connection
with the homicide to which Mr.. Hearst
alluded.
Mr.. Sullivan admitted 1t TO be true
that on Nov "a, 1885, his father, Eu-
gene j. Sullivan, and himself were
convicted of nanslaughter !" the SUI
perior court of Middlesex. county,
Mass.
Mr.. Sullivan explained that while
his father was conducting a licensed
hotel in Boston he was attacked by a
drunken man. He (Sulliyan), then
seventeen years old, went to the res
cue of his father. The man was
knocked down and struck his head
against the curbstone, became uncon-
scious and never recovered. His father
was sentenced TO three years impris'
onment. Sullivan was held to be only
technically guilty and was neither I'M
| prisoned nor fined. His father was
pardoned after serving a year and q
half.
Mr.. sullivan declared that the most
that could ever be alleged against him
was that he was technically guilty OF
| the offense charged, the district attor
ney having admitted that he was not
| even morally guilty.
| MIR. Sullivan received loud applause
| from both sides Of the chamber when
he declared that he walked out oi
| court a free man and mad not been
imprisoned day nor fined cent. The
applause broke out afresh when he de
| clared that under simiiar circum
| stances If his father Were alive be
| would go to his defense. He took his
| seat amid renewal applause, several
| members going to his seat and shak
| ing hands with him.
When Mr. Sullivan concluded his Re
/ publican colleague, Mr.. Gardner feel
ingly spoke of his intimate associa
| ton with Mr. Sullivan in the Massa
| chusetts senate and testified to Mr.
| Sulliyan's worth as a man.

SCORE OF LIVES LOST.
Cold Spell Results in Many Deaths in
Southwest.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-Although details
are lacking 1t is estimated that about
a score of people have lost their lives
during the cold snap, the majority OF
the fatalities being in the Southwest
The loss of cattle on the ranges,
particularly on those lying in the
northern part OF the southern tier OF
states, will be heavy.
w. e. Bolton. secretary of the Okla
homa Live Stock association, de-
clares that the live stock losses in the
present cold weather will be the great
est since the blizzard of 1896.
He places the number of head lost
On the ranges in Western Kansas,
Western Oklahoma and the Panhandle
of Texas at $4,000 head.
Farther north in Nebraska and the
Dakotas and Montana the stockmen
are better prepared to shelter their
stock, their cattle are better Injured to
cold and it is not expected that their
losses will be anything near as heavy
as those on the ranges farther to the
south.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 15.-The last

burg strike disappeared during the

ballots are being distributed for the

workmen. The greatest confidence
prevails that the measures taken viii
prove satisfactory to the workmen, as
the latter will be heard regarding the

justment of existing differences. The
political side of the agitation Is con-
sidered no longer serious factor at
present.
Rumors that General Trepoff will
be appointed minister of the interior
are not confirmed in the best informed
circles, where it is believed the post
of governor general will be continued
for several months at least.

RREvooRT HOUSE PARTIALLY DE-
sTRoYEp, BUT GUESTS MAN
AGE TO ESCAPE.
MANY LOST IN SMOKE FILLED HALLS
HEROIC WORK OF TWO MiLWAU'
kEE MEN INSTRUMENTAL
IN SAVING LIFE.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-Fire partly de-
stroyed the Breyoort House early in
the day, causing loss of 100000 to
the building and hotel furnishings and
forcing $50 guests to make a hurried
departure. Three firemen were IN
jured, one seriously. None of the
guests were hurt.
The fire, which started from crossed
electric light wires about 2;30 o'clock,
was discovered by bellboy, who was
almost overcome by smoke in arousing
guests and employees of the hotel.
When the firemen reached the scene
the flames had eaten their way through
the third floor and had made consider
able progress upward through the
walls. The smoke, which was dense,
hampered the firemen in their work,
while the guests were scampering by
every avenue of escape to reach
place of safety and the hotel employees
were busy in arousing them by tele'
phones III the rooms. The three fire
men were injured by the collapse ol
the ceiling in the barroom.
The fire was mostly confined to the
rear of the building, which was gutted
from the basement to the roof. The
hotel, which is eight stories high, Is
one of the Oldest in the city. Nearly
all of the guests were from Western
states. Many of them escaped from
the place by rear fire escape.
Guests Do Heroic Work.
John C. Spirra, a guest whose home
is in Milwaukee, nearly lost his life
in an attempt to carry women guests
from the third floor
S. T. Winslow, another Milwaukee
guest at the hotel also was instru
mental in saving several women from
| the smoke filled corridors. Concern
| ing the fire Mr. Spirra said:
THE halls were filed with smoke
/ and women were screaming and at
| tempting 10 grope their way to th'
! elevator / carried several womel
/ down the stairways to place OF safe
! ty, making several trips back to th'
/ third floor, where women were seem

Professor Edward G. Reedder, Uni
versity of Wisconsin, was one OF tn
persons who narrowly escaped dealt

wife occupied room on the fouru
floor. He was awakened shortly afte

IDENTIFIED AS HOFFMAN.
Roch Said to Have Been in Employ of
r. n. Holmes.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-The police are
inclined TO put more faith in theory
that Johann Hoch is identical with
Jake HOFFMAN, janitor of the fat build
ing owned by the wholesale murderer,
II. II. Holmes, in 1893. Three persons
have now positively identified Hoch
as Hoffman. Police Inspector Shippy
has obtained the names of several OIL
GERS who knew Hoffman and who Will
be asked to say whether Hoffman and
Hoch are one. Hitherto doubt has
been cast upon the assertions that
Hoch and Hoffman were identical be-
cause OF a belief that Hoch did not
arrive in this country until 1895. Seem
ingly, however, Hoch's own statement
is all the police have for this. They
have to the contrary the statement OF
a furniture dealer here who declares
he sold Hoch furniture in 1892.

UNDER FIFTY THOUSAND.
Russians Killed in Battle During First
Year of War.


st. Petersburg, Feb. 15,-The o1hclai
returns for the first year OF the war,
not including the Port Arthur statis-
tics, show that 130,439 officers and
men passed through the hospitals go
ing north, of which number LILO Oil
GERS were wounded and 1,30s were
sick: 53,890 men were wounded and
72,58l were sick; 4,007 subsequently
died In hospitals; 6,474 wounded and
11,24S were invalided; 1922 returned
to Russia; 21,554 are still in hospitals.
Over $1,000, therefore, presumably re-
turned to the ranks. These figures do
not include the numbers OF those
killed on the field OF battle, nor prob
ably those slightly injured who re-
mained temporarily in field hospitals.
The showing Is considered remarkably
good. The proportion dying in hos
pital is very low; total loss to the
active army in wounded and sick be-
ing a little over $4,000, of whom al
most half have still chance OF return
Ing to the ranks. The other half Will
be invalided or returned to Russia.
