Colonel William P. Biddle, who pass
ed through here for San Francisco in

ried Mrs. Martha Reynolds Adger at
the Episcopal cathedral in Manila just
before leaving there. He has been re-
Iieved from duty in the Philippines.
Lieutenant Colonel James E. Mahoney
is in command of the marines in Ma
Mia until Colonel Biddle's successor is
appointed. A year ago Colonel Biddle
was on the Board OF Examiners of Of

Captain Roy C. smith. who passed
through for the Coast from the Orient
in the T. K K. s. s. America Maru on
Friday last, was detached from the
command of the Chattanooga in Asia
tic waters and ordered to the States
for duty at the Naval war college at
Newport. A luncheon was given Cap
tain Smith by the officers of the Chat
tanooga before he left, to which feast
the commanders of other warships at
Manila were invited. Captain Smith
is a son-in-law Of Admiral Sampson
and prior to his taking command of the
Chattanooga eighteen months ago was
naval attache at St. Petersburg. Much
of the excellence of craftsmanship ac-
complished by the gunners of the Chat
tanooga at the late target practise has
been credited to the untiring efforts of
Captain Smith.

Her Mistake.

Owing to the fact that the car lurched
suddenly as he was passing along the
aisle, Bronson was deprived of his bal
ance. with the result that in attempting
to save himself from falling he clutched
one of the shoulders of n handsome wom-
m who had succeeded in getting a seat.
Moreover. he knocked her beautiful hat
awry and with great difficulty avoided
stepping on her toes. As he succeeded
in recovering his equilibrium the lady
turned toward him and said:

Horse Value of Country.

Almost $2,000000,0OO worth of
horses are owned in the United States,
according to the Year Book of the De
partment of Agriculture. 1t Is prob
able that if the horses were taken at
their real value, instead of their as
seSsed value, this figure would be great
IL increased. According to this report,
there are 1892, 600 horses in this coun-
try, with q value of 81 ,S67 $50, eco, and
the average value per head is S93.1o.
Anybody knows that has tried to buy
horses of late that the average per
work horse Is worth more than that
However, the showing is very encour-
aging. In the last ten or twelve years
the number Of horses in this country
has almost doubled, and instead Of
there being too many horses, there are
not enough to do all the business that
is required. and if it We're not for the
use of automobile trucks in the large
cities the merchants Of this country
would be hard pressed for methods Of
transportation for their goods. with
business increasing, as every sign ind
Gates, there will be II greater demand
than ever for horses during the COM
ing year. In view of this, breeders
can go on increasing their business,
with every confidence that all the
horags they can produce will find 4
ready sale at i good figure, As FOR
good trotters horses capable of going
out and winning in their class, the de-
mand is greatly in excess Of the sup
ply. Auction sale managers complain
that there are not enough of the good
ones to supply the gentlemen who are
in the market for likely prospects The
coming year will be n banner one in
the horse business, especially in the
breeding business.

Don't fuss around your hens too

The State veterinarians who inspect

plenty of light, and the new dairy
barns are featured with an increased
number of windows. If possible the
windows of dairy barn should be sc
placed as to cause the sun at some

Sunlight acts as a powerful disinfect'

SECTIONAL VIEW OF ICEHOUSE.

Second-rate pine boards were used for
siding, which was nailed on the inside
of the frame. The roofing was made
Of similar material as the sides, but of
a little better quality.
In filling, Il space is left between the
wall and the ice, to be packed with
sawdust. The crevices between the
cakes are filled with fine ice shavinS5,
but no sawdust is used between or on
top Of the layers of ice until the filling
is done, when about one foot of saw
dust is placed on top.
Openings must be left near the peak
Of the roof to secure ventilation, and
the sawdust filling at the sides must
be kept firm and solid while the ice
is being removed in summer. 1t is
important to locate the icehouse
where there will be good drainage.
Poor drainage at the bottom OF the
ice or allowing air to circulate at the
top will quickly spoil the contents of
the house.
