WINTER FEED For HENS.

If the weather is cold, | give more
corn; if warm. less. The essential point
in feeding my birds is to give as large a
variety as possible, ead to make them
work ior all the grain by scratching,
keeping plenty OF fresh water, beef
scraps, grit, oyster shell, and charcoal
always before them. Corn wheat and
oats are the staple grains. My hens
seem to relish all kinds. Barley makes a
good change, and feed it four times a
week; rye is an excellent green food in
early spring; buckwheat is good, but too
high priced at times and should be fed
sparingly, except in cold weather; millet
might be fed to an advantage occasion.

Lucky warsaw.

Warsaw, the capital of Benton
county, was the lucky recipient of
the splendid Riverside Park adjoining
the city, and overlooking the classic
waters of the beautiful Usage, a gift
from Judge Lay, certainly patriotic
and generous citizen. While Ver-
sailles cannot hope for such a mag
nificent gift as this, yet we need a
park as badly as Warsaw, and the
sooner steps are taken to secure it.,
the cheaper it can be had. Why not
organize park association and get

Home First.

We were rendered an add from a
leading Sedalia firm at better rate
than our home merchants pay, but
turned it down, believing that our
home merchants can supply all the
wants of this section and at fair
prices. Every dollar spent at Sedal-
ia would certainly be lost to Yer
salles. Keep your money at home,
or near home as possible.

TROLLEY MEN TO
LOBBY AT CAPITOL

Opposition to bills now before the
legislature affecting electric street
railways resulted in the formation of
the Temporary Street Railway associ.
alton, which is composed of more than
sixty companies in this State.
Committees of the organization were
announced to meet yesterday in the
Arcade building, in Philadelphia, to
outline plan of action.
What the street railway men consid-
er one of the most obnoxious measures
aimed against them is one providing
for an increase in the taxation of cleo
trio roads. If this bill passes the leg
islature, they say, it will bankrupt
many of the corporations by imposing
upon them hsrdships which they can :.
not bear and continue in business.
There are bills before the legislature
which the organization feels, if adopt.
ed. will meet the approval of the cleo
trio trolley roads. Among these are
the measures providingfor the carrying
of freight by trolleys, and that con-
ferring upon these roads the right of
eminent domain under proper condi-
tions. The association will work hard
for the passage of these bills, and will
appeal directly to members of the leg
islature.

GEORGE GARDENERS
NARROW ESCAPE

George Gardner, our we'll known
townsman, met with terrible fall
Monday. which came near putting
him out Of business for awhile, if not
permanently winding up his career
Mr.. Gardner was engaged in cut
ting down the large horse chestnut
tree in front of Mrs. Stickle's resi-
dence ON Center street. To remove the
tree without having it come in con-
tact with any of the buildings that
stood close by or the electric light,
telephone and other wires which ran
through under the branches taxed Mr..
Gardner's ingenuity, but he accom-
plished what he set out to do, although
as above stated he met with serious
accident.
The limb hanging over the wires he
secured by chain, which he attach
ed to one of the upper limbs, after
which he sawed the limb loose from
the trunk. The limb refusing to swing
clear, Mr. Gardner was obliged to saw
il in two, a task. which was accom-
panied with much danger. One part
of the limb swing clear. but to proper
" handle the remainiHg portion it was
aecessary to bring blocks and tackle
iptozplay.
"WbiB>psing the latter Mr.. Gardner
occupied pdshipn ON the top of
twenty foot ladder. While Juggling at
the rope the weight of his body was
distributed in such a manner as to
cause the ladder to sing around and to
fall to the ground, carrying the man
with it.
On starting on his twenty foot fall
Mr.. Gardner let go the ladder and fell
at the inside of the pavement striking
the side of his head on the palings of
the fence enclosing the lawn of the
Cruikshank residence. He lay motion
less for awhile, apparently insensible,
although Mr.. Gardner AYERS that he
was dimly conscious of what was 60
ing on around him and was quite un-
able to speak.
His terrible fall was witnessed by
several people living near who went
to his rescue. He was taken into one
of the dwellings nearby, where it was
found that no bones were broken, al
though his face and side of his head
were cut where he struck the fence.
Mr.. Gardner is a man of iron will
and constitution A little thing like
fall of twenty feet to him is only an
incident and after having his injuries
dressed he surprised the spectators by
cooly stepping out of the house and
resuming his work as though nothing
had happened.

REFUSED TO PAY
TELEPHONE BILL

A unique case came before Alderman
Yeager in Willismsport yesterday af
ternoon.
Joseph S Yerger. contractor, was
the defendant, and the Bell Telephone
company prosecutor. The trouble all
came about because Yerger's name was
misspelt in the telephone book, which
was issued last October. In the book
the name was spelt Yeager, and the
defendant claimed that the phone was
of little use to him because no one
knew he had phone in his home.
When bill of $l9 was presented to
him the other day he refused to pay it

INJURED HORSES
IN THE STOCKS

A horse belonging to James Good,
Toby run hollow, got loose in the
stable Sunday night and celebrated his
liberty by kicking the other horses,
still chained in their stalls, SO badly
that for awhile it seemed doubtful
whether they would recover SO as to
be of any service to their owner.
The animal that broke loose had re-

vided with sharp calks and toe pieces

the kicking horse to do fearful execu-

A gray mare, a faithful farm amin

the rump, about midway between the
spine and the knee of the hinda leg a
deep incision seven inches long was
inflicted. which cut nearly, intoa the

Veterinarian Kline was called to
Mr.. Goods farm Monday forenoon.
After examining the horses he realiz-
ed that with the injuries in such close
proximity to the hind legs it would be
hazardous work to attempt to stitch
the deep gashes aided by no better
facilities than existed OH the farm.
At this juncture the patent stocks
for shooting horses maintained at Lo-
bach's blacksmith shop on Northum-
berland street suggested themselves
and it was decided that the only prac-
ticable course left open was to bring
the horses into town and perform the
surgical operation with the aid of the
stocks
Accordingly about 80 O'Clock the
three crippled animals, heavily bla nix
eted were led into town and taken to
