CONTEST BETWEEN
LEeHoRNs AND SCRUBS.

Fifty White LeghOrns were com
pared with fifty mongrels for one year
as to cost of food and egg-production.
ordinary care and attention being
given them such as they would receive
on the average farm.
In addition to skim milk used to
moisten the mash the Leghorns con-
sumed sixty-one pounds Of food cost
ing $50 cents, and the mongrels con-
sumed sixty-one pounds of food cost
ing S5.3 cents. and the hongrels con-
sumed 66.S pounds of the same ma
terihIs, costing 92f cents.
During the year the Leghorns laid
1865 eggs, worth 1925 per hen. and
the mongrels 96.1 eggs, worth $1.7S
per hen.
The Leghorns gave profit over the
cost Of food of st.s9 and the mongrels
a profit of SO cents.
The mongrels gained in weight one
pound per head more than the Leg
horns. If this increase in weight is
taken into consideration then the Leg
horns gave pproat of 40 cents per
hen more than the mongrels.
The highest prices for fresh eggs
usually prevail during the months of
December, January and
February. During these four months

Pure Breeds Pay Best

No mongrel-bred. crosSbred or
barnyard fowl has ever won an egg
laying contest. Some peope seem to
enjoy the novelty ot advising others
to cross-breed their fowls for eggs and
market poultry, yet no one yet has
ventured to claim supremacy at egg
production from any of this cross-bred
stock Pure-bred Leghorns, Wyan-
dottes, Plymouth Rocks, Orpingtons,
Langshans. Brahmas, and Minorcas
have all won at some time or other at
egg-laying contests, but never, SO far
have we heard of single test in
which pen of cross-breeds has won
the honors.-Ex

CLEAN. WARM QUAR-.
TIERS NECESSARY.

Bear this in mind: II you want
your chickens to thrive and produce
profit through the winter months, you
.must provide comfortable and clean
quarters. Drafts into the roosting
place are dangerous The house
should be cleaned frequently and plen-
ty of clean dirt or gravel should be on
the floor. busting boxes placed about
the premises pay well for the trouble.
Feed for eggs in winter. Green bone
ground into, meal is very fine for lay
ing heAs. It contains just the ele-
ments needed for egg production. A
small machine for grinding bone can
he had for small sum and It will
soon pay for itself in increased egg
production.
An experienced poultryman suggests
that supply OF dry leaves be gath
cred up for winter and placed in a lit
ter in dry place. Scatter them to a
depth of six or eight inches and throw
grains on this litter for. the chicks.
This on the theory that an active hen
is healthy and laying hen. Keep
her hustling for her feed
Don't allow rubbish to accumulate
around the chicken yard. Such places
breed lice and disease germs. Get rid
of the rubbish and save trouble with
your chicks. 4

The Value Of The Hen

A list of benefits to mankind the re-
suit of the prolific production OF the
American hen, was published some
time ago This list began with the
statement that more mortgages had
been removed from lands throughout
the country as the result OF the care
full management Of poultry than had
ever been lifted by hogs or corn.
whether this be entirely true or not,
1t is at present an undisputed fact that
the American hen produces over $780,
100000 worth of eggs per year, ana
more than this In market poultry.
When the term hen is used in this
connection, 1t means the egg produc-
ing power of all kinds of domestic
fowls, including ducks, geese and tur-
keys and. their product sold for food
In the market. The dairy products
OF the country is credited with $780,
O00, 900 per annum. If there might be
added to the previous figures about the
American hen all the poultry of all
kinds, and their eggs that are produc-
ed upon small town and village lots,
the actual production would come very
close to the dairy branch of our live
stock. LEX.

Stale eggs are CLASSY and smooth Of

A fresh egg has limelike surface
to its shell.
Eggs packed In bran for long time
smell and taste musty.
Thin shells are caused by lack of
gravel and lime among the hens laying

It is bad policy to have cracks in the
poultry house. A draft on the fowls
while roosting will cause, many COM
plants. A good waterproof cement
for stopping up cracks and leaks in
the poultry-house is to mix two quarts
OF freshly Stacked lime with one pint
of cement. Moisten 1t with skim milk
to the constituency of mortar and ap-
ply it literally in every crack and crew
ice. 1t will soon harden and prove
very serviceable.
Place box of dry wheat bran where
the fowls and chicks can get & 1t at
all times It is good for them and they
cannot eat too much of it. If they do
not eat itsreadily at first, mix little
coarse cornmeal or millet with it as a
sort of bait" 1t won't be long before
the bran box will attract them with
out the cornmeal or millet

The farmer who permits his chick
ems to roost in the stables does not
deserve to own horse. 1t generally
requires but little effort to keep them
out and it should be done by all
means.

The Hanson Cab.

From the Boston Globe.
 From Birmingham in England, where the hanson cab was invented 70 years ago by an architect named Joseph Aloysius Hanson, comes the news that this vehicle has so far lost it's popular ity that company engaged in it's man. ufacture has decided to go out of busi- ness. It has been noted for some time that in London and the great cities of the United Kingdom the number of hanson cabs offered for hire steadily has been decreasing. The disappear ance of the once popular vehicle, how ever, is of more than common interest to Birmingham, where it was invented.
 In London the disuse of the hansom cab is attributed to the development of the underground railways and the in creased use of motor boats and motor cabs. Throughout the United Kingdom the extension of the street car systems must be held responsible for the di. favor into which the hanson has fallen. Generally, it may be said that the de. mand for private cabs, once very large, has been superseded by the call for automobiles.

How Bryan Won Wife.

Mrs. Bryan still finds much amuse- ment in reciting the difficulties MT. Bryan encountered when he sought her fathers consent to their marriage, says the November Delineator.
 Many people have reparked upon the fondness which MT. Bryan shows for quoting Scripture" Mrs. Bryan has said. 'This habit is one of long stand. ing, as the following circumstance plainly shows. When it seemed proper for William to have a little conversa- ton with my father it was something of an ordeal, as father is rather a re- served man. In his dilemma William sought refuge in the Scriptures and began: MT. Baird, have been reading Proverbs a good deal lately and find that Solomon says: "Whoso findeth a wife findeth good thing, and obtain eth favor of the Lord''' Father, be- ing something of Bible scholar. re- piled: Yes, I believe Solomon did say that, but Paul suggests that While he that marrieth doeth well, he that marrieth not doeth better"' Solomon would be better authority upon this point he rejoined, because Paul was never married while Solomon had many wives. After this tilt the mat ter was satisfactorily adjusted"
 The Bryans delight in farm life. They have a small place near Lincoln, Neb., and much of their time is spent there.

Meridian, Miss, November 1.-(Special) ) The monthly report of Postmaster A. ]. Hyde for the month just closed shows the biggest business of the same period in the history of the Meridian postoffice. The ordinary stamp sales were $3,4S7 ga; stamped envelopes $1,OS0.S4; postal cards, $171. 1.S2; stamp books, $2S0.79; exposition stamp series. 10, which makes a total of s5569 %. Receipts for newspapers, box rets. excess postage, etc, $54S1S, which makes q grand total for the month of October of $6G17.47 or $l,626.H more than during October 1906 when the entire re- ceipts were but $4,990.73.
 The good colored people of Meridian held a meeting Thursday night and adopt ed strong resolutions upholding the chief of police and the police department in the efforts being put forth to rid the city of Meridian of worthless, lawless negro va grants. The resolutions also pledge the support of the good colored people to the officers of the law in the crusade that has been inaugurated in the past few days.
 The Mississippi synod United States of America, Presbyterian church. will be in convention in Meridian for three days session beginning Wednesday evening, at the Cumberland church in this city. Great interest Is being shown in the meeting.

New York, November 1.-The religious fervor which characterzes the Salvation army will be much heightened by the arrival here today of Gen. William Booth, the patriarchial leader of the organza tion. Indeed, inasmuch as his present tour of the United States will probably be his last, his stay of about week here will be made sort of triumph. Cover nor Hughes and representatives of every walk of life will participate in series of public meetings arranged in the vet eran evangelist's honor. General Booth will deliver three addresses in the New Amsterdam theatre Sunday. and it is eX- pected that all of them will be attended by great salvationist demonstrations. The formal welcome of the state and city will take place on Monday at Carnegie hall. Governor Hughes will preside.
 Gen. William Booth, is here today on what is probably his last visit to New York. The aged Salvationist is fee ble and has been in poor health since his arrival in America five weeks ago.

Pleasure of Health Resorts

Professor Crook of the New York Post Graduate Medical school says that cen turies of experience have demonstrated that in certain disorders, mineral waters, intelligently used are a better curative agency than drugs, and that Europeans have not failed to appreciate their re- sources of this character. Some of the springs. such as the Apenta or Buda- Pest Hungary. are conducted under scientific and medical supervision. IL has often been said that American watering resorts are given over plVre to recreation and entertainment than to the study and care of the visitors health.

Tis ailment puzzles his physicians and himself T have now resumed my pro- gramme," he said "and l have grown stronger and stronger. This is an exem- plification of my theory that work is the great remedy for all human ills
 Speaking of his meetings he said;
 T find that people with no religious leanings are more sympathetic than many others. There is in every one nature that responds to a call for good ness and benevolence and to God. This nature may be overlaid with all manner of evil associated with passions. but still it is there. The goodness In the natures of the people will be brought out by patience and determination. So many people think that they must be rich or prominent in the eye of the public in order to have happiness, instead of see- ing clearly that the only natural way to happiness is by the aid of God and goodness and in making sacrifices.
 Religion is not the idea of being moody or melancholy. but it is jolly state of heart The indifference to religion that is formal religipon Is growing.

RAILROAD ASSESSMENTS.
Valuations Are Increased Considerably
 In Mississippi.

Jackson. Miss, November 1-(Special)- Secretary Maxwell of the railroad com mission has been at work several weeks on the assessment rolls for the several railroads, telegraph, telephone and other public utilities and the result of his la bors shows that the ad valorem value of these corporations for the year, 1907 is s45, ,629 PA. For 1906 the valuations were s44, ,399, ,S75, which gives an increase of S,- 231 ,369 for the present fiscal year.
 The state tax on these valuations for 1906 was $266, 1885. .25; for this year it was 3e73. .T75. .46-an increase of S7,792 3i.
