"THERE IS A RlEAsoN.,

J. H. G. Durant, the popular end en-
 terprising Church street jeweler says in
 his advertising space in to-days Cou- rier: Too busy showing and selling
 holiday goods to write ads" Those who
 know M. Durant, and have dealt with him can readily believe his statement. Of course these days everybody is more or less busy but most of the merchants find time ito advertise their wares. But the plain truth of the matter with Brother Durant Is just this. From early morning until late at night when 1t is time and past time to close his establishment, customers throng his store, and do not give him or his clerks. hardly time to breathe. He is glad to see them ali, and glad to get their trade, but he thinks that just now it would be like carrying coal to Newcas- tie to write ads. Ii Church street, op- posite the postoffiee has long been rat ed as a reliable and upIto-date jewelry and optical store. Its friends and pa. irons are numbered by the thousands. They call at all seasons. When Christi mas time approaches they are certain that Durant has in stock everything in the line that is beautiful and valuable. And they know also that he will not take any advantage on account of the special, needs of his patrons. He will pass them out the goods at square and honest prices. That's why the folks are swarming just now at Durant's. His line of choice and elegant 1ewelry is al great magnet during this busy holiday season.

IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
HEARING ON NETTLETON CON-
 PROMISE PROPOSALS.

Three Propositions Submitted in Pro-
 bate Court-Beck Family Sued Con
 solidated Trolley for S12,OOO and Re-
 ceived $7S5--FeIdman Got One Per
 Cent. of Claim for Two Lost Fingers
 No GilhuIy Will - Other Legal
 Items.
 In the probate court yesterday morn Ing Judge Cleaveland set December 27 as the date for a hearing on three ap- phcations to compromise debts owed to and by the estate of the late Edward B Nettleton.
 The first of the petitions deals with debt of $11700, owed by MT, Nettle- ton to the Crosley & Beckley Lumber company. Before his death MT. Nettle- ton had made an agreement to take up this debt, and given five notes of $2O0 each as compromise. One of these he AASsO PcF4ut lCeiNlllS lllG Olll6I lOuI OuL standing at the time of his death. The administrator now asks permission of the court to pay these four notes, amounting to $500, with interest at 5 percent, to settle the claim.
 The second petition is a complex one, and if granted will result in a trade of claims held by the estate for those held by others against the estate It appears from the petition that MT. Net tleton had fifty shares of the stock of khe Bridgeport Lumber company, which does business at St. Stephens, N. O., and that the company also owed him $5,000 for services and money advanced. T, B. Wickwire, treasurer of the com pany, also owned Mr. NettIeton $1,5OO covered by a mortgage on property at Berlin, Conn.
 Against the estate the Mechanics Ma tional bank Of New Britain holds note of $5,OOO, and it is now proposed that in order to settle this claim that the fifty shares of stock be given to MT. Wickwire on condition that he pay the $1,500 due the estate, and that the claim held by MT. Nettleton against the Bridgeport Lumber company for s5,O0O be transferred to the New Britain bank in settlement of its claim against MT. Nettleton for that amount
 The third petition is from LeClair White, who asserts he has claims against the estate and asks an exten sion of time to file them. The three matters will be heard a week from tor day.

Feeding OIL Meal to Cattle.

The longer you feed oil meal the
higher the finish, but you can see
the effects of 1t in 60 days. The ques-
ton was raised whether II oil meal is
to be fed just 60 days it should be
fed the first 60 days or the last 60
days Of the feeding period. H. w.
Mumford says: II don't know" He
said that most persons would answer
the Inst 60 days, that being the COM
mon practice. But he has seen such
a difference in the way cattle start on
feed. 1t takes great deal longer to
get cattle started to gain on corn and
clover hay than where oil meal Is fed
at first; with oil meal they start right
of. The corn and clover cattle make
their large gains along toward the
last. He would like to see the matter
tested scientifically. The oil meal will
show in the finish of the cattle IL 1t
is fed at the beginning and not at the
close of the feeding period.

WHO SHOULD RAISE HORSES.
Prof. Thomas Shaw Says II Depends
on the Man.

In growing horses, as in growing
other kinds of live stock, the most
potent factor Is the man. Some men
should grow draft horses only Some
should grow only trotters. The many
should raise the former, as they are
so much more easily grown. The few
should grow the latter. The men who
can grow good trotting horses, that
is, trotting horses of really superior
merit, are few and far between while
those who can also develop them are
fewer still. Some men should not
grow any kind of horses, as they will
not make success of it. They will
not make a success of 1t because they
do not understand it or because they
do not like 1t, or for both reasons.
No one should engage in growing
horses who does not take kindly to
the work. And no one should engage
in growing any particular kind Of
horses or any class of the same unless
his tastes run In that line. However,
If one understands his business and
grows that class of horses in which
he is most interested, there is but
little doubt that he will succeed in
the work.

DRESSING AND KEEPING MUTTON
Some Suggestions for the Home
Handling Of the Meat.

In dressing mutton always bear in
mind that you should not feed your
wether for "a hours prior to slaughter
ing. 1t is not generally known, but
undigested food is apt to flavor the
flesh. Keep this point constantly in
mind. Do not try fancy methods in
dressing your mutton. Have your car
cass perfectly plain. 1t is good rule
to kill the sheep in November, at
least wait until after fly time.
Do not hire butcher to kill your
sheep. Do it yourself. After slaugh-
tering hang the carcass in your cellar.
If the latter will keep bread without
its molding, you may rest assured
that your mutton will not spoil. Hang
the mutton, do not lay it down. II
hung properly with no two carcasses
touching, and with the loose pieces
drawn back so that the air can thor
oughly permeate the surface, these
carcasses should keep till April. At
any rate, do not take 1t down for cut
ting up until one month after putting
it in the cellar; l prefer six weeks.
There is, says Orange Judd Farmer, a
chemical change in the flesh of the
sheep within six weeks from the time
of killing. You will find after that
time the mutton will not stick to the
knife in handling the carcass.

Foot Rot of Sheep.

In a discussion before the board
of agriculture Of Great Britain the
matter of foot rot in sheep received
considerable attention. Some Of the
members had used copper sulphate at
the rate Of one pound to a gallon of
water. If the sulphate is to be used
merely to prevent the disease and not
where it actually exists, a much
weaker solution could be used, In the
opinion of the experimenters. The
copper sulphate used was in the pow
dered form and was purchased under
a guaranty of SO per cent. puritya The
way OF using the solution was very
simple, the sheep being merely driven
through the bath. When sheep was
found to be badly affected its hoofs
we're pared before the animal was
driven into the bath. This appears to
be very easy way of combating the
disease.

WHAT EXPERIMENTS PROVED.
AZ to Balanced and Unbalanced Ra-
lions for Cattle.

Howard r. Smith, professor Of AMI
NAL husbandry. University of Ne
braska, In his book on Profitable
Stock Feeding" says:
Our stable experiment stations have
conducted numerous feeding expert
ments with animals, In which bal
anced and unbalanced rations have
been compared. At the Kansas expe-
riment station, corn, prairie hay and
corn slower, combination having q
nutritive ration of I'LL, wall fed to
steers In contrast with balanced ra-
ton having nutritive ration of 1865.
The average OF three trials showed
that 2S per cent. less feed was re-
quired for a given increase In weight
with the balanced ration.
In an experiment at the Nebraska
experiment station, with yearling
steers, II was found that, to make the
same gain, 20 per cent. less food was
required with corn and alfalfa than
with corn and prairie hay, and the al
falfa was no more expensive.
In another lot where oil meal, a
rich protein food, was added to corn
and prairie hay, % per cent. total
food was required for given gain.
THE experiment stations Of Illinois
and Missouri have recently shown the
advantage of corn and clover over
corn and timothy in as striking con-
trast
Nor have the tests been confined
to fattening cattle alone. Expert
ments with sheep, swine and dairy
cows show that much larger returns
are made when the rations are com.
pounded in way that will furnish the
nutrients in proportion somewhat
near the requirements as determined
by scientific methods"

LIVESTOCK NOTES.

Blue grass and clover make gooo
hog pasturage.
Lampas Is a disease of the horses
mouth-behind the front teeth. One
way to help 1t is to feed ear corn to
the horse.
A slight cut on horses tongue
will usually heal and make no trouble.
A bad cut may need few stitches
taken in 1t by surgeon.
On certain dairy special there
hung a placard with the following
statement: "A carload Of corn is
worth $3.50. A carload OF butter is
worth $1,000. Convert your ~orn into
butter and save the frGgnt on 19
cars" On another there was, THE
