Give Poultry Mill.

Every farmer should allow the poul.
try a share Of the milk, instead of
feeding all to swine. 1t has been pro-
ven that when milk is added to the
grain ration, young chicks gain nearly
twice as fast in weight as when grain
alone Is used, and as skim-milk and
buttermilk contain nearly all the ele-
ments Of food, eggs are more easily
produced by hens fed upon such than
when they are not so provided.

A Good Cow.

The fact that COW has the dairy
type does not always indicate that she
is a good COW, but a good COW always
has the dairy type. When a COW with
the proper conformation does not
prove profitable there is usually rea-
son for 1t. She may have been so
reared as to be worthless, or It may
be she is not receiving the right care.
All cows in a herd will not respond
to the same treatment.

Work for Top Of Ladder.

Do not hesitate to work for he ton
rounds Of the ladder in the poultry
business. The higher you get the less
crowded It is. and therefore the bet.
ter the business pays. says a writer IN

lonesome at times. but 1t Is the kind
of loneliness that Is right easy to bs,r.

Too Much Corn Shoats.

When corn is plenty and cheap the
average feeder makes a mistake In
feeding shoats too much while TOP
young. BY the time they reach the
age when they should have franz
enough to carry good lot Of fat, they
are stalled on corn. There have been
few shoats stalled on corn since corI
sold for over a half-dollar.

without forming any precipitate. These
solutions should always be prepared

method like the one described is the
only satisfactory way to do It.

GivA Hans Work

In the extremely cold weather It is
most important to give the hens work
to do by scattering millet and small
grains in the scratching room. On
warm days they do not need this so
much If they have plenty of range.

Plan for Cow Barn.

Der, which is stripped over each stud
are covered with wood or metal lath,
and the lath with two coats of Port
land cement plaster. The spaces be-
tween the studding are filled in with
concrete thirty inches above the floor
line. The walls and ceilings are then
lathed and plastered with cement. The
roof is covered with best grade Of as
phalt roofing, over eight inch ship lap,
which makes the entire barn prac.
tically fireproof
Considering that the walls require
no paint, and that the barn is much
warmer in winter and cooler in sum-
mer than wood, also the lasting quail
ties of this construction, it is really
cheaper than wood, as it is very little
more expensive than the wood to start
with. In some sections where the
sand and gravel may be secured on
ones own place it may be built even
cheaper than with wood. All exposed
woodwork should receive three coats
of the best paint, and should be re-
newed as often as necessary. The
stalls are formed of gas pipe, also
the stanchions The floors, also the
cutters, are provided with drain traps
for carrying away the water and
liquid manure. The liquid manure
should be drained to a cement manure
pit, Where a water system is in
stalled hose may be used and the
entire barn washed down and cleaned
in a very short time, All angles
should be rounded so as to not hold
the dust and dirt Feed and litter
carriers are installed, and the route
Of the trolleys are shown by the dotted
lines. If hay or other rough feed is
stored above, a good tight floor should
be laid, and sliding doors placed to
close the hall space between the feed
room and milk room BY closing the
doors and passing the hay down in
this space the dust and dirt will be
kept out of the COW barn One fea-
ture about this construction that
should not be overlooked is that any
damage TO the walls or floors may
be repaired by almost any one and the
material required will be simply the
cement and sand

THE JURY IS GET-
 TING VERY TIRED
The Dill Case Dragging lis Weary Length Through the Pulaski Circuit
 Court.

Little Rock, July 29-- The daily sensation came in the Dill case yesterday afternoon when Miss Myrtle Hale, who has been employed as a stenographer for Dr. Sweatland and several other physicians who have of- fees on the second floor of the building in which the Knights of Pythias hall occupied 3rd floor and whose duty it was to watch the front stairway so as to dir ect the patients to the different offices testified that Earl Dill was not the young man seen con- ing up the stairway and go into the Knights of Pythias hall on the morning Miss Burkhalter was assaulted but Harry Evans son of welliknown Iron Mountain con- ductor was the person. Evans was in the court house at th5 time having been summoned as a witness. Miss Hale also testified she was well acquainted with Dill and was positive he did not vis- 1t the building the morning the assault was committed. Evans is a witness for the defense and there is "a rumor he will admit being in tthe building at the time and give his reasons for being there and show he had no cOnnec- tion with the assault The testi- mony will all be in by night and tomorrow the state will offer it's rebuttal testimony which vii. put the arguments off until Sat urday. The jury is getting seedt- looking from its long confinemeht but the members appear to be happy though all cast longing looks at the doors when the crowds swarm out at the adjourn ment of court as though they woTd appreciate even few hours of freedom

The Ludwig resolution was placed be- fore the Board. there being only four members present, Attorney General Norw ood being away on official business and it was lost on tie vote, the board standing ? to2, The lobe resolution failed on a similar vote. On motion of Commissioner Tucker the last two paragraphs of the lobe reso- lution was then offered leaving off the caption concerning the convicts being supplied the Com mission in compliance with the legisla tive act, and this was as- dopted. The resolution adopted was as follows:
 Whereas said convicts, if now at work, are being worked under the direction of the Capitol Commission and not under the direction Of the penitentiary Board. Therefore be it,
 "Resolved that the peniten- tiary Board thereby distinctly and emphatically disclaim any re- sponsibility for any labor that may have been or may hereafter be performed by said convicts in controvention of any order Df the courts of this state, while such convicts remain as at present, un- der the control of the State Cap itol Commission.
 "Resolved, further that this
