TRIAL OF SPLIT LOG DRAG.
Demonstration Near Van AIstyre
Was Highly Successful.

Van Alstyne, Texas, April 9.-The
split log drag was given another trial
in this vicinity Saturday afternoon.
1t was used on the air line road three
miles east of town. This is the first
time the drag has been used here I'M
mediately after a rain, and Overseer
w. T. Bowen and others who used il
say that it did much better work than
in any of the former trials. The road
was thoroughly wet; in fact It show
cred while they were at work. MT.
Bowen says that he is convinced that
the best time to use the drag is while
the road is thoroughly wet. With to
days wind and sunshine the surface
of the road is thoroughly hardened
and is sure to stand up until another
rain.
The Commercial Club of Plano has
written to the president of the Bust
ness Mems League of this city for In

SPRTNGMEyER.

At the Democratic meeting Monday
NIGHT. George Bartlett saw fit to assail
the Ably of George Springmeyer, the
Republican candidate for attorney gen
eral, for the presumed purpose of con-
veying the idea that if Mr.. Springmey-
er should be elected, the affairs of the
state would fall in the hands of on
who is untried. In behalf of Stoddard.
the Democratic nominee, he urged his
election on the strength that he ha !
acted as city attorney of Reno, and for
that single reason, claimed him the
qualified candidate.
Whatever argument may be advand-
ed against the Republican nominee, il
cannot be truthfully said that he lacks
the ability. Mr.. Springmeyer is a grad
uate of the Univ rsity of Nevada,
Stanford and Harvard, the foremost
law college in the most progressive
nation in the world. Does the fact that
he graduated from these institutions ef
learning signify that this candidate
is lacking in abilityg No, to any fair
minded man they stand as credentials
unparalleled. Aside from his high cd
sucation in law, Springmeyer is blessed
with as much horse sense as any man m
Nevada-and don't you forget it. The
accusations of Bartlett are as false as
they are foolish and we would much
rather credit them to a puerile source
than one George Bartlett.-Gardncr

RUSH TO RESERVATION TAKING
AWAY VOTERS.

RENO, New, October 26.-Th DO
litical ~forecasters of the state are cal
culating the effect of the rush into the
Walker River reservation, and the pre-
vailing sentiment is that the Demo
cratic party viii be the greatest suffer
err. 1t is believed that not less than
1000 voters, and perhaps 5000, win go
into the district on the Goth, and few
of these are sufficiently interested in
the state or county campaigns to re-
turn home and vote. The Investigation
already shows that practically none Of
those who are leaving for the res rva-
ton are obtaining transfers that will
enable them to vote elsewhere.
1t is conceded that a majority Of
the miners are Democrats, and con-
seouently the Republicans will not
worry about the matter unless the
Democrats arrange to transport the
voters back to their precincts. This
is being discussed by the Democratic

THE COST OF LAMBS.
It Is Difficult Matter to Get At
But Can at Least Be
Appropriated.

It is a most difficult matter to get
at the actual cost of rearing lambs,
since one cannot just figure the man
agement that will insure certain
number Of them to live, nor how much
of the expense of keeping the dam is
to be charged to the lamb. AS a rule,
the cost of every lamb at birth is the
cost of keeping the eve between lamb
ing periods, less the income from her
wool and the value of her manure to
the farm. We would say, says the Mid
land Farmer, that the cost of lamb
is anywhere from so cents to three or
four dollars, depending upon the meth
ods employed. 1t should be understood
that the board bill Of a sheep in
creases with increase in size, and
growing sheep consume more feed than
mature ones. Then, ewes will have
from one to two lambs, which further
complicates the matter of figuring
cost. Should any breeder secure 100
lambs from 100 ewes he is doing well.
We have always figured that the wool
would pay the keep of the dam, and
leave lamb free of cost at lambing
time. Whatever it cost from that time
until the lamb is in market should be
charged to the lamb.

The Hanging of

BY ADAM CANNETT
copyright, 1905, by Joseph B. B:


Wher Little Johnnie first come to
Cat Hollow, he done the right thing
invited the crowd into Mikes and set
'em '\p all around. Whereupon Three
f1nge Bill, who was the cock of the
walk and man of parts, even If some
of tle parts were missing, said that
if anybody interfered with the kid
they'd get the wadding knocked out
of 'em.
When l come to take a good look at
Johnnie it didn't seem bad idea, his
having some one to look out for him,
he wasn't more than five foot two
tall, nor as thick through as tele-
graph pole, while his hands was as
little as gals and as soft, and his
hair was yellower than French Kate's.
If it hadn't been for the kids eyes,
you'd have said he wouldn't last three
days in Cat Hollow, but when he
looked us all square in the face, and
told us we was as tough looking a
layout as he'd ever seen, with our
50-day old beards and hair looking as
If it had been cut with a sheep shears,
we liked it-I'm blamed if we didn't.
And when he went on to say that his

PROFIT IN GREEN BONE.
How the Feeding Of It Increased thu
i Egg Yield to the Point Of ~
Real Success. :.:y

moved onto a rented farm April l,
1901, writes a New YORK correspondent
of the Ohio Farmer. On the farm vera
SO black Minorca hens, six males and
four Butt Cochin hens. They were all
housed together, in small quarters, and
had been fed all the. corn and wheat
they would eat during the winter. Eggs
were to be equally divided so we kept
a strict account. /
During the first ten days I fed them
al the landlady had. From April to
10 four Cochins laid % eggs, and so
Minorcas laid 81 eggs. I saw at once
that wheat and corn could not be con-
verted into eggs profitably unless sup
plemented with something else. April
10 commenced feeding green bone. ]
had no bone cutter so l had to crush
1t with hammer. After they had got
ten a taste Of it I had to fight them to
keep them away; while that was an
unpleasant feature, yet the satisfaction
OF knowing that I had hit on. just what
they wanted more than compensated
Tor the annoyance. I fed from one tQ
two pounds every day till the 2Gth,
when had to give it up on account OF
the time it took. Result: April 10,
gathered five eggs; April Is gathered
u eggs; April Is gathered 81 eggs; !;
April 80 gathered 80 eggs.
April 8 (two days after commenced
feeding bone) set a hen on 13 eggs.
Eggs all proved fertile, but only two
chicks had strength enough to break
through the shell, and they died short
~ after. On April 16, "a and %, re-
spectively, set three more hens. Ev-
cry egg hatched and every chicken was
strong and vigorous, but I lost u by
the mother hen stepping on them.
In my short trial learned: (D Grain
alone is too expensive. (2) Bone is
cheapest supplemental feed I can get,
for it decreases by one-third the
! amount of grain that would be fed
otherwise. 90 1t increases the pro-
duction of eggs. (4) While bone does
not insure fertility in eggs, it insures
V1gor and strength in the young chick
en- which is just as essential. (5) A
bone cutter is essential for it saves
much time and annoyance, wastes no
bone and prepares it for little chickens
as wei las hens.
