Should Mr.. Kingly's experiments,

chickens have always been a nui-
sance. Their value is very low, hard

them and their chief use seemed to
be to harbor vermin on the fowl. With
the disappearance of the feathers also

call for frantic scratching and a

be. quickly prepared. for food, without
the disgusting process of scalding and

is to give the bird a good bath in soap
and warm water, which can be done
as well before as after killing.

Position OF Dead With Arms Inter

BIZERTA, Tuhis, Oct. 21.-The div
ers working on the French submarine
boat Lutin, which went down on this
port October 16 with fourteen men and
two officers on board, today succeeded
in digging tunnel under her stern,
through which hawser was passed.
These operations we're conducted I'M
der the personal supervision OF M.
Thompson, the French Minister OF Ma
rine. A heavy chain has been placed
in position under the submarines
bows and the preparations for lifting
her are now complete.
All efforts to remove the bodies
from the Lutin have proved in vain.
Through the window of the hatch, div
ers have perceived two corpses with
arms interlocked The position OF
these bodies is such as to make it
impossible to open the manhole. The
two bodies seen from outside cannot
be identified.

ABOUT MATING.

You can mate tie cockerels with
the pullets of the same hatch. 1t
can hardly be called inbreeding, as
the chances are strongest that the
hen that laid the egg from which the
cockerel Matched did not lay the eggs
from which the pullets Matched.
An excellent mating is 2-year-old
hens with 1-year-old male birds. 1t
is a mating that means strong fer
tility and rugged stock. Breeding
from pullets under months of age is
not desirable, as there is not sumcient
stamina there for good results.
Mating should be made according
to the object in view. If starting an
egg farm, or to build up a strain OF
good layers, it is necessary to mate
the best layers. So it is in breeding

Coating his naked body with soft

Wise. corpulent long-term prisoner,
made a desperate and sensational et-

1t was quite evident that Wise's at

outside of the prison. According to

FRIED CHICKEN.

Since Noah built the ark fried
Spring" chicken has been the most
delicious dish set before king or peas
ant. Why not eliminate this word,
spring" and give us fried chicken
whenever our appetites crave it?
Fried chicken and cream gravy are
good eating twelve months in the
year, and also possible with the mod
ern incubator and brooder.
When the agricultural and poul-
try press fully realize the great pos
sibilities of artificial incubation, the
farmers wife will be keen to keep her
incubator and brooder running sum-
mer and winter, and not confine her
matches to the spring months. Ma
chimes will be made and sold twelve
months in the year and this, of course,
will benefit the publisher as well as
the advertiser.
The most foolish thing that a farm
er's wife can do is to take OFF one or
two matches in her incubator in the
springtime and then hide it away in
tho hay loft for eleven months in the
wear to be used as a nest for rats and
mice
Our great grandmothers knew moth
ing about canning or preserving
fruits, but thought dried apples the
only thing in winter, but the well-fed
farmer of today not only has peaches
and cream for his Thanksgiving din
ner, but may have strawberry short
cake and new potatoes for his Christ
mas feast. Is there any good reason
wby he should not add to this bill of
fare the delicious fried chicken?
During the winter months many
railroads serve young chickens under
the title of quail on toast" and
thousands enjoy them. Our metropol-
| itan hotels and cafes pride them
selves in serving spring chicken in
the winter as well as in the summer
Why not educate the farmers wife
to do the same thing?
Give the world fried chicken twelve
months in the year and the farmer
will be benefited. Make it possible for
the incubator manufacturer to sell
machines the year round, and you will
give him big lift.
Wouldn't it help the publisher could
he carry our ads twelve months in the
year instead of only three, as now? IT
is the opinion of the writer that pub
fishers of poultry and agricultural pa
pers should inaugurate an educational
lcampaign with a view of convincing
the farmers wife that it pays to hatch
chicks with incubators twelve months
in the year.-A. j. Johnson.

THE VELOCITY OF LIGHT.
(The Hesperian.)

Light moving with the amazing We
locity of $4,000 miles a second, a
speed a million times as great as that
of rifle bullet. 1t would make the
circuit of the earth's circumstance, at
the equator, seven times in one beat
of the pendulum. For long time the
light was thought to be instantaneous
but it is now known TO have a meas
urable velocity. The discovery was
first made by means of the eclipses OF
Jupiter's satellites. Jupiter, like the
earth, casts a shadow, and when his
moons pass through it, they are eclip'
sed Just as our moon is eclipsed when
passing through the earth's shadow
Jupiter's shadow far surpasses In
magnitude that of the earth. His
moon revolves around him more rap
idly than our moon revolves around
the earth, and their orbits are nearly
in the plane of the planets orbit. Con
sequently they all, with the excep
ton of the fourth and most distant
satellite, pass through the planets
shadow and are eclipsed at every rev
olution.

REPUBLICANS
WILL PUT OUT NO LEGISLATIVE
TICKET IN MAURY NOR CAN
pIDATE FOR SENATOR IN
THIS DISTRICT.

The Republican Executive Commit
tee of Maury county met in Columbia
Monday for the purpose of advls-
ing as to whether or not it was Tor
the best interest of their party to put
out a legislative ticket in Maury. The
committee also had instructions from
the committees of Perry and Lewis
tn confer in regard to putting out a
candidate for the State Senate, "nd
the promise that these two other coun-
ties would endorse whatever action
was taken by the Maury county COM
mittee. After some discussion it was
decided to remain hands off in both
the legislative and senatorial contests
as far as official action went; to put
out no candidates, nor to endorse any.
During the conference, however, 1t
developed that every man present ex-
cept one favored the candidacy OF Mr..
Greenlaw above Calt. Webb That
they recognized in Mr.. Greenlaw a
fair, conservative and honest man
and would vote for him at the polls,
From this showing, it is evident that
Mr.. Greenlaw will receive a majority
of the republican vote of the county,;
which practically puts Capt. Webb out
of the running.

1.-Remember that your hens are

results will be satisfactory.
Keep your hens at work. This
is absolutely essential for success.
When your hens run after you 1t is
sure sign that they are fed too much
and are too lazy to work at scratch

and hang their green food so high
they will have to work to get it.
8.-Ia the morning feed a light

be cold, feed a goodly amount OF corn
not "nubbins," but good, clean corn
AFTER the morning meal scatter
some millet seed, wheat or oats IL
the litter, so they will have to scratch
during the day, and if they refuse tt
scratch, let them fast for two OF three
days. An ounce of cut bone shoult
be given each hen every other day a
the morning feed, and little Gu
clover in the mash will do lot o
good.

SOMETHING NEW UN.

The old saying that there is moth

raiser in Indiana work out as he now

by the success of Burbank and others
in producing seedless oranges, apples,

FALL CHICKS.

There has been a great deal salu
this fall in regard to the late IAN
chick and the complaint has been
that the loss has been greater than is
usually the case. Well, that is easily
accounted for. We have had cooler
fall than for the past six years ana
unless young chicks are well housed
these cold nights and mornings they
cannot survive My experience has
been this fall that the chick with the
hen died, while the chick that was
kent in the brooder on cold days and
only let out after the sun had dried
the grass and warmed up everything
lived. The fall chick is as easily
raised as the spring chick-oniy re-
ouires little more attention, and is
very profitable for late broilers. Then
another thing must be taken into con-
sideration-the food for the chicks.
They must have the very best food;
there are some prerared foods on the
market that are Injurious to chick
ems. Give plenty Of charcoal, cover
the runs with sand, beat up pieces OF
china into small bits and throw IT
with the food, keep plenty of fresh
water before them all the time; boiled
milk about three times a week Will
keep off any bowel trouble. Observe
these rules and you will have splen-
did success with your late fall chick

REAL LIVING
SKELETON
FIeshIess Indian Weighed Sixteen
Pounds and Was Walking Bone.
(sunset Magazine.)

(SunSoL MdSdzlnS.J
When in October, 1858, under call
for volunteers by John B. Weller, Gov.
ernor of California, Captain /. G. Mes
sec, volunteer Of the Mexican War,
in which he served as Texan rang
er, took the field against hostile and
marauding Indians in Trinity and
Humboldt County, California, one
of the first triumphs of his campaign
was the destruction of an Indian
ranchera on wager Creek, stream
that adds to the volume of Eel River
on it's way to the Pacific. These In
dams were of higher type than those
of the Sacramento Valley, and well
armed would fight man to man with
schooled mountaineers, and in the
open. In this engagement Hank
Smith. also a Mexican War veteran,
entered one of the Indian habitations,
but came out again with the utmost
celebrity, and with each particular hair
on end, declaring there was a ghost
within Now Hank was as brave as
men are ever made. and the jeers OF
his comrades induced him to re-enter.
Again he came out, more precipitate-
" than before, vowing "By the shades
of Zach Taylor" that there was a NOV
ing skeleton in the lodge. Finally an
opening was made and an Indian skel-
eton was discovered crouching under
a basket--an animated anatomy OF
skin and bones, five feet six inches
high, which weighed only 16 pounds.
The being or thing was described by
the soldiers as being the complete
embodiment of death, without a par
ticle of flesh discoverable on the face
or limbs, and small enough at the
| waist to be spanned by a mans hands,
yet capable of walking and intelligent
action. After capture the Indian pris'
oners employed the skeleton man In
mixing bread, in which his long, bony
claws exhibited considerable dexterity
He was sent to the nearest settlement
as the greatest physiological phenom
enon of the age. General William G
Kibbe, then Adjutant General of the
State. who accompanied Messec's
command, refused large offers for the
human curio for exhibition purposes
His captors believed that the atten
uated creature was the consequence
of some undiagnosed disease which
had slowly wasted the flesh withou
expelling life from its CHASTITY tene
ment. Captain Messec forwarnet
General Kibbe that IL the fieshles
aborigine was the sort of enemy h
