Poultry Experiments.

The Maine station house for laying
hens is fully described in bulletin
issued by the experiment station at
Orono, and the advantage of the house
20 feet wide over the narrow ones are
shown by experience to be: Economy in
construction, ease of management and
greater comfort of the birds
Following a description of the port
able brOoder-houses is a discussion of
their use in winter, when they would
otherwise have been unoccpied. Two
hundred and seventy pullets were put
into sixteen of these houses and kept
there from November to March, inclu-
sive. They were in good health during
the winter, laid freely, but not as well
as their mates in the large houses. The
food they ate cost $40, and they laid
1,057 dozen eggs, which sold for $34S,
leaving $113 to pay for taking care
of them, which was done in connection
with other work, and did not consume
great deal of time.
The desirability of locating the yards
OH TIC uOElH, Rather IMAM tie South
side of the open-front houses and The
inadequacy of the growth of plants in
ordinary yards as a source of green
summer food, are shown.
The dangers from the too free use of
succulent food in winter, and the great
value of good clover hay as part of the
daily food throughout the year, are
urged as matters of consequence.
Experiences with four different meth
DDS of feeding young chicks are given,
and the station ration for laying hens
is described
An experiment, in which whole corn
is compared with cracked corn in the
ration for laying hens, is reported A
thousand hens were employed in the
test, which so far has extended from
November to May, and the data shows
conclusively that there are no advant-
ages to be gained by cracking the corn.

Returns from Cottonwood Trees.

Returns from Cottonwood Trees.
At recent meeting Of the South
western Horticultural Society of Iowa,
gentleman of good reputation made
an interesting statement with refer
ence to the profits Of timber culture on
the Western prairies. Twenty years
ago he planted a row of cottonwood
slips four feet apart and half a mile
long along the highway fronting his
farm. The trees grew tall and thrifty,
and as they attained large size drew
upon his farm field adjoining for a
width of three rods, occupying thus
about three acres of land. Last fall
and winter all but one hundred Of the
trees were cut and from them was
made $4,000 feet of serviceable lum-
Der, board measure, and $50 cords of
wood. The lumber sold for S15 per
thousand and the wood was worth
1925 per cord, or cash value for the
lumber grown on these three acres of
81 ,O42, or $347.50 per acre, making
an annual income of $17.37 per acre for
each of the twenty years. 1t should be
stated in this connection that these
trees grew upon the loose soil of the
Missouri slope, soil where the cotton
wood tree finds its most perfect de-
velopment, and we do not believe the
above record could be duplicated upon
the average prairie soils of the West.

AS to onions, with deep moist. rich
soil, which is the only kind that makes
paying crops, anywhere from 200 to
400 bushels may be gathered, owing to
the season, as they seldom bring less
than 80 cents per bushel. They are
usually a profitable crop, but they re-
quire a deal of labor, and much of it of
the hard, back-breaking kind.

The coal-tar dips are about the best
that can be used, as they will not stain
or injure the fleece; in fact, will add
luster to it. One should never use
a dip of poisonous nature, if the sheep
have any skin disease or cuts on them,
and it is on this ground that the non
poisonous coal tar dips are recon-
mended.

Ashes will do for the dust bath, but
clean, mellow earth is preferable. An

fowls are kept the right color by keep

When selecting corn for table use,
leave an early ear on a stalk that pro
duces two ears, for seed; in this way
one can bring the crop on earlier each
succeeding year. If the corn isn't a
good variety, don't save seed.

Navy beans do fairly well in soil
only moderately rich, while Limas re-
quire the best. Beets often give 400 to-
500 bushels to the acre, parsnips the
same and tomatoes nearly as much,
though often less than 800 bushels.

In answer to the question which is
better, to pillow under green clover or
cut it and feed it to stock, and pillow

the clover, provided the manure is

you "eat your cake and have it too"

One of the strongest points about
the mule is the fact that it costs so
little to keep him. 1t is very seldom
that one finds even a large mule that
requires as heavy constant feeding as
a horse. They also require less care,
keep cleaner and are more steady
workers on an average than horses.

PRESIDENT HARMON
(Continued from Page II

President Harmon is arrested In
connection with the alleged perjury
Of several of the witnesses In the re-
cent trial OF George Kekauoha for
adultery with Amia Liilii. In his ar.
gument toward the conclusion of that
trial, J. j. Dunno fatty charged Jen.
ME Kekauoha and George Kekauoha
with perjury on the witness stand, and
intimated that other witnesses had
been guilty of the same crime. Both
Jennie and George were formally
charged with perjury and will have to
answer In court for the Offense. But
mat the judicial lightning should
strike as high rs the head of the
church undoubtedly comes as sur.
prise to the Mormons.
There are indications that the
peaceful current of church waters
over Laie way has been sadly dis.
tdrbed by the storm that struck that
locality when George was put on his
trial, and there Is much internal dis.
sension, not to speak of the arrest OF
several of the prominent members OF
the church for crimes against the laws
ot the United States.

The Indians were still there, and on
coming to close quarters they wrested
the gun from him. One of them,
named Towie, stepped back and fred,
the ball breaking the victims right
arm and passing through his body
from side to side, causing instant
death. When the Indians closed in
on Edwards, the other white men,
who were near by in a conveyance,
got out to go to his assistance. After
the shot was fred Alderman caught
the gun, trying to take it from the In
dian who had it. Neither being able
to secure it, they mutually agreed to
empty it. This undoubtedly saved
the life of Mr.. Alderman, and prob
ably his companion also. The eight
shots in the magazine were olscnarged
before another Indian came up, took
it from both of them and and then
snapped the weapon at Alderman.
The white men then ran. Alderman

BISHOP, Cal, May William F.
Edwards, deputy sheriff of Benton,
was foully murdered at that ploce
about 5 O'Clock Monday afternoon by
a drunken Indian, one of three he
was trying to arrest.
The circumstances learned from
Frank Keller were as follows: Miss
Ada Bertrand, aged about IL, was on
her way into Benton from her home.
Within about a half a mile of that
place she was stopped by three In
dams on horseback, all drunk . At
this time Mr.. Edwards, returning from
the depot, drove up, and near him
came also s. J. Alderman and a stran-
ger. The men drove the Indians OF
after a battle without weapons and
the young lady drove back toward her
home.
Edwards went on and put up his
horse, then went after a gun. Mrs.
Millner endeavored to induce him to
lei the matter drop, saying that the
girl was all right and the Indians had
gone. He took the rife, however, and
went to the scene, near an old mill.
