Among the most noticeable announce
ment Is that of Supervisor Crossley to

publican voters Of Jacksonville town
ship at a meeting passed resolutions
bitterly condemning Edison Seweh and
A. IT. Markle, the two delegates who
threw Chickasaw county to Perkins
by voting with the standipatt IN

voters Of the county and the action of
the republican voters of Jacksonville

focus. Today, leading republicans We're
discussing the best means of seeing
that the county's desire was properly
represented at the state convention. 1t
is practically certain that a contesting

yention and more harsh methods may
be resorted to.
There has been much gossip as to the
methods employed by the standpat ma

THUMBS IN YOUNG PIGS.
Care Must Be Exercised in Feeding
Both the Mother and the Pigs.

Lack of exercise is at the bottom OF
the trouble with pigs which results in
thumps. Heavy feeding, winch Is usual
ly the case in raising the young pigs
makes them disinclined to take exer-
else. If the pigs are not fully weaned
good care should be taken in feeding
the SOW that she has some bran, plenty
of clean, fresh water and some rough
age.
This will prevent the pigs from get
ting too fat. 1t is n good plan to give
the pigs some bran in the slop, more
bran than any other grain, and to keep
them in a pen or inclosure where they
can keep clean, yet with sufficient room
to get the exercise they need and which
they should be made to take IT they
will not do it willingly. A small patch
of grass in the shade into which they
may be turned without being too far
away from the SOW will induce them TO
exercise more than anything else.

For Practical Farmers

I lection of n suitable site for a poultry
yard. Nevertheless, inquirers write
| frequently asking for further "point-
| ers." To all who are seeking informa.
ton. the following should serve their
purpose:
The ideal site for a poultry-yard is a
dry, rather high piece of ground, hav-
ing n slope to the south or east
Natural drainage should be good. A
yard located on a flat, undrained sur
face will never give satisfaction. A
light soil is vastly superior to a heavy
one-if sandy, 50 much the better.
Clay land is Objectionable because hens
can not scratch to advantage in it, and
unless hens can scratch and pulverize
the soil into dust they will not do well.
Poultry-gr0unds should be protected on
the north and west by buildings, high.
tight board fence or a thick hedge of
evergreens-something that will break
the force of the prevailing winds.
The size of the Enclosure should be
determined by the number of hens you
propose to keep. At recent poultry
convention the assertion was made by
most successful poultry grower that
space ten feet square should be al
lowed for each fowl. From this you
can readily calculate the size of your
yard. The statement was also made
at this convention that few persons
who start in without previous expert
ence are likely to be successful if they
begin with large number of fowls
Disease is more likely to attack them,
and is more difficult to control where
there are many to treat. The anna
teur finds he has more on his hands
than he had reckoned on, failure re-
suits. he becomes discouraged, and fin
ally he comes to the conclusion that
there isn't any money in poultry"
1t was said, also, that the man who
begins with fifteen or twenty hens can
care for them properly, and find time
to learn the ms and outs of the bust
ness-the little things upon which sue
cess SO largely depends-as he goes
along. When these are learned, he can
safely afford to increase the size of his
flock. and not till then. The common
mistake of the beginner i'm the poultry
business is that he thinks he has mas
tered it because he has read some
books on pOultry-groWing; success
must be attained by the practical
knowledge which comes of working
among fowl, and not of reading about
them. 1t was also agreed that only
one male was needed for twenty hens.
The male is necessary for breeding pur-
poses only, as he has no influence on
egg-prOduction.
In building houses for winter shelter,
plan them after some of the designs
given in standard books on poultry
management. Build substantially, and
with view to warmth in winter. Hens
will not lay well in cold and drafty
houses, nor will they be healthy in
damp cnes.
