Brief Notes on Poultry.

For a soft crop the American Poul-
try Journal says nothing is better than
a gill of strong vinegar in quart of
drinking water.
In this warm weather do not permit
the hens drinking water to be exposed
to the sun. They should have fresh
water twice daily.
In the United States corn is a ia.
vorite feed for chickens, though, as
Prof. Wheeler states, common grains
seem practically Interchangeable ana

query has been passed up to us more

Be on the guard against both lice
and rats at this time. Wood ashes and
tobacco stems may be profitably used
to destroy the former, If you have
nothing more handy, and cats that
will not harm the chickens will prove
good rat destroyers in the coops.
o. L. Giese, owner of the Bellingham
Bay poultry yards at Be1lingham,
writes that he will move to new To-
cation this fall, and in order to dis
pose of part of his birds before NOV
ing he is offering them at bargain
prices. He wants to sell the larger
part of his Barred Rocks, White Wyan-
dottes and Black Minorcas, and all his
White Rocks. We believe this Is
good chance for poultry breeders to
stock up with new blood, and suggest
that all who are interested write Mr..
Giese and get prices.

and shows this breed of birds to best
advantage. Mrs. Hungerford raises
the White Wyandotte exclusively, and
is ready to back her statement, that
they are the most profitable to raise,
with some excellent reasons.
Suffice it to say that almost any of
the varieties, if carefully chosen and
properly cared for, can be made to pay
large profits. They can be handled in
conjunction with the other farm work
and with no more trouble than the
bunch of scrubs which at the present
writing disfgures many farm other

Returns After Lapse
Of Forty Four Years
To Seek Lost Gold Mine
STRANGE JOORT OF
GEORGE II. MIDDLETON

gold in the hills to the northeast Of

O. which was given 20 aim by f.i, nd
over forty years ago, and the exac. 10
cation of which has been divulged to
him in his sleeping hours over and over

exander Middleton, pioneer of Hum
boldt county since the days of '63 and
the founder Of the we'l-known way sta
tion at Willow Point.
The history of this golden ledge in
its relation to Mr.. Middleton, who is
now an old and feeble man, well along
in years, past three score and ten, is
{, intense ard absorbing interess. He
diisf from the days of sod haGc on
the banks of the Humboldt near the
present bridge, when Indian depreda-
tions were of frequent occurrence, and
the people then living in the county
were settled in close communities for
protection. For it was in those days
that a traveller from Idaho, weary and
worn with his long journey, straggl 4
into Willow Point and presented to Mr..
Middleton a piece of gold quartz of
exceedingly rich value, and explained
to him that ledge of that quartz lay
in the hills to the cast of Martin crS elk I;
that his wagon had broken down within
a few feet of the ledge and that he,
being pursued ty Indians, had left the
country hurriedly and that nothing
could tempt him to return. Mr.. Middle.
