hint in the senate to-day of an effort
10 fix the time for the final vote on

that he would bring the matter UP in

sheraton of amendments offered by

JAMES ARDIS IS
STILL At
LARGE
Negro Arrested at FIOraIa Was
Found to Be the Wrong
Man.

Another disappointment was in
store for Sheriff Van Pelt and Deputy
Sanders Sunday when they reached
Florala, for they found that the negro
arrested there Saturday was not Jim
Ards, wanted for killing Officer Burn
ham.
The sheriff and deputy left the city
Sunday morning at o'clock, and con-
fidently expected that the right man
had been captured, and from what
they had heard they had reason for
their belief.
AS soon as they reached Florala
they left the train and went direct to
the jail Deputy Sanders who knows
Ards saw as soon as the prisoner was
brought out that the wrong man had
been arrested. Owing to the great in.
terest manifested in Pensacola re-
garding the capture Of the negro, the
officers used the long distance phone
and notified the jail that the negro
was not Ards. The local officers re
turned to the city Sunday night al
IL o'clock.
The impression still prevails that
Ards has not left this section, and
that some Of his friends are secreting
him and making him acquainted with
the movements Of the officers.

A Few Timely Suggestions.
CARE OF OLD HENs-TIME TO BUY-
FORCING EGG PRODUCTION.

The old hens that are expected to lay
the eggs during the winter are the ones
that should receive the most attention
during the fall months. The pullets
that were hatched early should also be
separated and fed so as to develop sturdy
frames. Unless the hens and pullets are
looked after now they will not begin to
Law until late and instead OF being q
profit they will become an expense.
Now is the time to strengthen your
broods for next year. At this season
breeders are generally reducing their
stocks, and farmers can buy to good ad-
vantage. By purchasing trio OF young
birds before winter begins, giving them
good care and all the comforts at your
command, you will have large broods OF
pure-bred chicks next spring and your
investment will prove itself profitable
one. One advantage in purchasing trio
over that of buying the eggs is that little
chance is taken on the trio, while on
the other hand one always runs the risk
of eggs failing to hatch.
Poultry raisers all over the country
declare that the governments plan to
force hens to lay more eggs will result
in failure. They argue that nature
controls the habits and character
istics of chickens and that Over-feed-
ing will result in too rapid growth and
unnatural maturity. Forcing hens may
be more easily and successfully accom-
plished in the winter than In the sum-
msr, as the warmth of the body must be
maintained then, but authorities on the
subject differ.-Turf, Farm and Home.

Official Tests of Dairy Apparatus


There is at our experiment stations
and dairy schools not unreasonable
fear of testing dairy and farm ma.
chinery. We say mot unreasonable
because the spirit of commercialism is
so strong and so general that the pro-
fessor who tests and reports on any ap-
paratus, is likely to be suspected OF be-
ing financially interested, more or less,
in the said machine.
But this is all wrong. We deem 1t
Cne of the important duties of our ex-
pertinent station to test the various ma
chimes and report facts in order to save
our farmers and dairymer from wasting
their money on inferior machines which
may be pushed through extra advertis-
ing and extra energetic agents.
This field has to great extent been
neglected by our experiment stations,
and the thought has occurred to us
that perhaps the cost Of exhaustive
comparative tests may be another reason
why it has not been done. This leads
us to the thought as to whether 1t Is not
possible for several stations to cooper
ate and take the matter up, say on four
or five stations only.
We do not by any means want such
experiments to be followed by any en-.
dorsement, but simply publication OF
facts as to the work done, the power re-
quired and possibly an expression as to
the durability.
These tests are becoming all the more
needed when We consider the millions OF
dollars now being invested in hand sep
arators, and remember the enormous
loss caused by cheap and inferior ma
chimes that may leave an extra 2 per cent
fat in the skim milk, and which wear out
in few years.
By all means let US have official tests
of farm and dairy machinery.-N. Y.

Proper Feeding.
A PROMINENT BREEDER GIVES HIS
VIEWS ON AN IMPORTANT NATTER.

Z. b. Thompson, the noted Barred
Rock breeder, says in the Reliable
Poultry Journal:
81 have found the best way to get the
most eggs from laying hens is to have
plenty of litter in the pens, teither straw
or leaves) and to scatter the dry feed in
to it to make them work. Wheat, crack.
ed corn and clipped oats, the same that
we feed horses, are the best dry grains
for me. These grains I feed in this way
every day, morning and night. At noon
it is a good plan to throw handful or
two of scratching food to keep the hens
exercising more.
"Every day or every alternate day l
substitute a mash for the morning dry
feed. This is made of hominy or corn
meal, wheat bran, ground oats, white
wheat middlings and beef scraps, all
scalded with milk or water and mixed
so the mash will crumble. Twice a
week little powdered charcoal is put
in the mash. This charcoal is and has
been for twenty-five years favorite
conditioner with me. value the white
flour middlings, as they keep the bowels
in fine condition. Laying hens must be
well fed, but must be made to work, so
as not to get too fat.
81 feed cockerels wheat, whole corn
instead of cracked corn, and the same
mash does for them once every day or
two. In each of my breeding pens is
pint cup fastened high enough up so the
cockerel can eat at any time, but at the
right distance from the floor so the hens
cannot reach it,"
