POULTRYACOLUHE.

Lime should be kept before the
hens at all times if they are laying
abundantly.
DroOpishness in fowls results
from sleeping and roOsting in foul,
damp houses.
The hen that lays the eggs is
the one that is always busy
scratching among the litter for
grain and feed. Get rid of the
idlerS.
Kindness pays as well in hand
ling poultry as it does any other
kind of stock. The fowls will re-
ciprocate any attention given them.
About the poorest way on earth
to get eggs is to trust to luck for
them, and one of the ways of
doing this is to make the hens
trust to luck for their feed.
1t is said that chicken cholera
can be cured with equal parts of
red pepper, alum, rosin and sui
phur. feeding a tablespoonful of
the mixture in three pints of
scalded meal every day.
Remember that grit is the teeth
of fowls and they should have an
abundance of it in winter when
the ground is frozen. Fowls in
must have it ali the
year round. Gravel, old plaster,
oyster or sea shells, broken bones
or crushed crockery are all relish
ed by the fowls.
The beginner in the poultry
business should remember that the
best breed is the one that he or
she likes best of those most suited
to his or her locality and market
1t is not good plan to keep the
hens housed all the time during
the winter months. no mater how
commodious and healthy their
quarters may be. On clear, sun
shiny days, when the heat of the
sun is on the front of the poultry
house. a space should be cleared
in the snow and a dustbox provid-
ed so the hens may dust and enjoy
themselves. Place the box in a
warm place where the winds will
not strike it. The hens love sun
light and will show their appreci-
ton of this attention TO their
wants by busily cleaning their
plumage.

The battle is on. Wayne county
will roll up pluralities today for State
and Congressional tickets. There is
no question, the leaders say, that the
pluralities will be decisive though
they will be reduced as compared
with those of former years.
Republicans have the better organ
ization and for this reason the percen-
tage of the vote brought out should
be made much larger than that of
the Democrats. In every township of
the county yesterday leading Repub-
licans were consulted with and the
opinion was unanimous that unless
there should be slump in the vote
the Republican pluralitieS would be
up to the standard of the off year
In Richmond there is a feeying that
there may be some Republican losses,
there may be some Republican losses,
Gratis have been claiming during the
last days of the campaign.
On every side last night the Re
publicans seemed highly optimistic,
while Democrats themselves with de-
clarations that anyhow we will cut
the Republican pluralities" to great
degree.
The Betting Last Night.
Betting last night assumed greater
proportions than at any time during
the campaign. No bets were offered
that Kuhn would be elected or that
any Democrat would get a plurality
in Wayne county. The Democratic
money was wagered on the size of the
pluralities and whenever put up found
ready takers. There has been less
speculation of this sort, however, on
todays election than ever noted i'll a
local campaign.
Returns will be received this even
ing by the Republican county COM
mittee at the court house in conjunc-
ton with the returns which are sent
to the county canvassing board. The
public is invited The Democrats
will receive at their headquarters in
the Colonial Building.
