The cost of keeping a hen a year
cannot be figured so as to give an
answer that is worth anything in any
locality, for the reason that local CON
ditions vary, so greatly that what
would be the average cost in one To-
cality is far away, from the cost in
another locality. We know conditions
where it costs nothing to keep hen
year, and other conditions where
the cost is so great that the returns
do not pay for the expenditures. =. F. B

There seems no doubt of the fact
that she is the largest cotton market
in the State; perhaps, if all the facts
we're known, she would be rated as
the largest mule market in the State.
Then her population consists of the
proper sort of people to make any
town grow, and when they are for
tunate in having all the natural ad-
vantages, there is no way to stop
their progress.

day there was no repetition OF
the depIorable occurrences of Sum
day. with the exception that single
blank volley was fired to awe crowd

fired.

grip on the situation and the police
used every precaution, such as forbid
ding the sale of petroleum and adyis-
ing people TO remain indoors.
The tension, which was some what
! relaxed in the morning, continued to
increase during he day
Conditions appeared TO be omino'is
when, shortly after dark the work
men in two electric light plants walked
out. refusing triple pay to remain. and
putting half the city into utter dark
ness. including the Nevsky Prospect.

people were terrorstricken. Reserve
troops were called ont to guard the

The most startling feature in the sit

eral factories in Moscow have closed
and that the workmen in the Old capi-
ia! OF Russia are repeating the tactics
Of their fellow workmen of She new
capital, marching frfom shop to shop
and mill to mill demanding that the
establishments be shut down.

troops than St. Petersburg. and he
