A Question.

Can't you call to mind many stalwart men who had been re- duced to weddings, with no ap- petite, by simply smoking cigar cites? We have in mind several, one of whom particularly, had come to the conclusion that the tobacco habit with him was ir- redeemably fixed" but on fall ing a victim to tobacco heart" a few times decided that it wasn t quite so fixed.
 Now. he has been heard to say If l had a boy who used cigar cites and 1 could not break him, I'd break his neck" He might not be quite so drastic if brought to the test, but we are sure it would just about break the fath- CTS heart instead, for from com bined testimony of those who know about these things, the doctors and school teachers, the boys life would not promise much inpromotion, honor oreven industry.

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOL

Prescott has many enterprises of which her citizens are proud, but prob ably none is so universally a cause for satisfaction as her public school. The term which closed this week, was an unusually successful one. The percent age of the pupils who passed in the fi- nal examination is larger than it has ever been before. The ideportment of the scholars shows great progres in their demeanor, and the attendance evidences great interest in their stud les.
 There is but one hindrance to the school. The building is not large enough to accommodate the increasing population. Another building must be erected. The city council has given the school board permission to erect one in the city park, an ideal location for the smaller grades. Whether or not this will be done depends largely on your vote next Saturday. The ques- tion of borrowing money to erect the building will be presented to every vot- CT who goes to the polls, and if the ma jority oppose the proposition, there is a likelihood that very little will be done in the matter.
 Remember that it's the little fellows who can't help themselves, that must suffer, if there isn't some provision made for their accommodation. Make the school practically perfect by giving the board an assurance for spending the money necessary to do so.

THE FIRST YEAR THE BEST.
The Reason Why PuIlets Are Profita.
 bIe as Layers,

DIG as Layers.
 The first year is the most prolific in bullets laying life. If the bullet can be made to enter this early in life she will prove profitable invest ment. Experience tells me, writes w.. D. Lloyd, of Marion county, H., in Orange Judd Farmer, if bullet begins to lay before cold weather sets in and is properly fed thereafter, she will con- tinue to lay right on after cold weather comes.
 l use no incubator as I raise but 150 bullets year, so begin setting hens as soon after January 15 as they are broCdy, and set none so as to come off after May 15. When the chicks are matched, 1 begin feeding nourishng food that will cause them to grow and develop frame rather than to put on fat, and bring them to maturity as early as possible without forcing. When the cockrels weight from one and half to two and half pounds, they are sold for what they will bring and the bullets kept on growing with no let up in their feed.
 May one year I had two broods of Silverlaced Wyandottes come off. Sixteen of the chicks proved to be bullets which began to lay just before they were seven months old. The month after they were eight months old, that is, from January to Febru- ary 3, they laid 300 eggs. Five differ ent days they laid 12 eggs and one day 13. Their feed consisted of bran, shorts or shipstuff, beef scrap, cut bone, grit and oyster shells before them all the time Besides, they had all the skim milk and warm water they wanted to drink and opportunity to thresh out all the cowpeas they wished to eat. Just before going to roost they and two cockrels were given three medium sized ears of corn each night.
 No separate account was kept of the food they ate. as they were fed out of the same bins as the other 175 fowls on the place, all fed alike; but charg ing them the average cost for the whole flock the p eggs they laid cost just two cents a dozen in money laid out. Even If charged for the corn and cowpeas at the selling price in the

HOTEL LIFE BECOMING A FAD AMONG THE RICH

M EW YORK.-The rich people of " New York are not only music mad, but they are hotel mad Hundreds and hundreds of people who have luxuri- ous town houses, as well as country homes, are now living in hotels, and the demand for more and costlier hostelries continues unabated.
 The building of the Waldorf and it's subsequent merger with the As toria. was responsible largely for the hotel life fad. This hotel, as it stands, cost more than $14,000,000, and it would puzzle one to figure out how such large investment could be made to pay. The taxes alone are more than $150,O00 year, and this does not include water rates, insurance and re. pairs.
 But 1t must pay, in spite of the size of the investment. for George Boldth has grown rich in it's management. Even Oscar the chef has made his

pile. Besides the Waldorf-Astoria, the Astors have invested many millions in hotels in recent years. Since then they have built the Hotel St. Regis in Fifth avenue, which has the name of being the most expensive holstery in New York, the Hotel Astor, magnifi- cent pile in Long Acre square, where not so long ago COWS were wont to browse, and the Knickerbocker at Forty.second street and Broadway.
 At present they are also building at a cost of 36,000.O00, an apartment hotel at Seventy-ninth street and Broadway, which covers a whole city block, and in which the rents will run as high as $25,000 a year. One of the features will be two-story apartments, that is, the living rooms on one floor and the sleeping rooms on another, the floors being connected by private stairways.

Cattle Have Not Done Well.

Farmers and stockmen in the Wa.
ha section are getting ready to brinl
their cattle from the ranges on the
Salmon river to their ranches, where
they will be winter fed. They expect
to get away about the 18th to make
the roundup, and something more
than 5000 head will be brought out,
says the Lewiston Teller.
"The summer range has been short
owing to the lack of the usual rains
and the cattle are consequently not
doing we'll" said James Lambert of
Waha, who was in the city today. "a
few of the cattle, some 500 head /
should judge will be ready to put on
the market as soon as they come
down, but the most of them will have
to be fed. Both in the summer and
fall there has been a scarcity of rain
and the feed has not been the best"
Speaking in the slump in prices,
Mr.. Lambert expressed the belief
that it would be only temporary. like
other of the panicky conditions. "I
notice that there is no drop on the
beef cut on the block" said Mr.
Lambert People are paying the
usual prices, and I can not see how
they can justify any demand that the
stockmen should take less for their
cattle"
