Gently car of chickens went from
Lampasas to New York, the car con-
tanning 1000 chickens, worth at their
destination not less than $4,000. It
may be said the packeries have revo-
lutionized both the chicken and tur-
key trade in Texas. They are now
marketed by the pound and when
hen sells for 7 or. 8 cents per pound,
it pays to get good stock and to fatten
them before marketed The same ap-
plies to turkeys. Only a few years
ago gobblers sold at Is cents and
hens at SO cents as stable price. The
size was not taken into serious ques-
tion, though occasionally an extra
large gobbler would bring dollar.
The packers began paying 8 and II
cents per pound for live birds and at
once farmers and raisers of turkeys
got busy to get the heavy turkeys.
Almost every farmer now shows the
mammoth bronze turkey strutting
proudly around and conscious of the
fact that in the fall when fat it will
tip the scales from 80 to so pounds
and net its owner from So to SIS
per head
Eggs are staple the year round, but
the prices vary more than they should
now that water glass will preserve
them for year at nominal cost,
and that cold storage can be had
cheaply. It pays the owners Of eggs
better to raise more chickens than
to market eggs at less than Is cents
per dozen, but that price or. better
is easily obtainable at several sea-
sons of the year.
The local demand does not entirely
consume the local supply in the late
spring and summer, but nice, fresh
eggs known to be such are always in
demand at profitable prices. Texas is
peculiarly adapted to successful chick
en- raising and will be engaged in it
on large scale ultimately. At the
present time it is crowding most Of
the states for second place that it
does not lead. Here's to the Texas
Hen. May she increase and prosper.

THE HEN.

The Fort Worth Star devotes con-
siderable space to singing the praises
of the domestic hen. It shows that
Texas is fast taking the lead in chick
ems and already holds the lead on
turkeys. Car loads of chickens are

FOREVER AND A DAY.

/ little know or care
If the blackbird on the bough
Is filling the air
With his saft crescendo now;
For she is gone away,
And when she went she took
The springtime in her look,
The peachblow on her cheek,
The laughter from the brook,
The blue, from out the May
And what she calls a week
Is forever and a day!

THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT

The highest compliment yet paid
President Roosevelt is that rendered
by the New Jersey Socialists, who
proclaim the president an "undesira-
BILE person." The president has, in-
deed, done many things to make him

It's little that I mind
How the blossoms, pink or white,
At every touch of wind
Fall a-trembling with delight;
For in the leafy lane,
Beneath the garden-boughs,
And through the silent house
One thing alone I seek,
Until she comes again
The May is not the May,
And what she calls week
Is forever and a day!

FARMERS SHOULD SELL
THEIR GRAIN NOW

(Contributed)
We are advised that the grain
elevators have received instruc-
tions to buy all the grain offered
them, with orders to rush ship
ments to Duluth as rapidly as
possible. Lake navigation will
close soon and when grain has to
be shipped to Buffalo by the all
rail route, prices are certain to
drop.
We do not believe that the ele-
vators are buying on any too
wide a margin, everything con-
sidered, and if those who have
grain to sell, will dispose Of their

their part toward relieving the
situation. This is particularly
true Of those who have bills un-
paid. AS one of our bankers
stated to us, The farmer can
not expect that his creditors will
be willing to allow him to hold
his grain for high prices now,
for that is specializing with other
peoples money as surely as If he

orators whom we are all CRITICS.

DAMAGE From Rains.

The recent rains throughout this
section of the country have played
havoc with the trackage and roadway
of the Santa Fe system and the
bridges through this immediate section
OF the country. The train that was to
have arrived here at APO this morn.
ing came in about O'Clock and the
north bound train was also late. II
was learned that the bridge south of
here had washed away and that above
Hre several of the streams were
swollen and the tracks and bridges
were in precarious condition. 1t IS
expected, however that matters will
be arranged within the next few hours
when trains will again be running on
schedule time.
On account of the washout south of
ArdmOre on the Santa Fe 1t was
found necessary to detour the passen-
ger trains around by the Frisco aud

Notwithstanding the fact that the
Santa Fe is suffering from high water.
