You must have early Matched pull

hens.
Give plenty OF room in well-venti
lated houses.
Never expose fowls in blustery
snowy weather
Feed regularly heterogeneous foods
rich in material for egg production
Have runs we'll Uttered with straw
material ON which to feed grains
causing the fowls to scratch for
their food.
Breed every year from the strong
est, best-developed fowls and espe-
cially from those of good laying quail
ties.
Do not at any time overieed your
fowls, give just enough to have them
clean it all up nicely.
Always treat the flock with kind
ness. Excitement does them harm;
have them as tame as pets.
Cleanliness throughout all their
quarters. If vermin infest the prem
ises they will rob you of eggs.
Do not overcrowd Better 10 hens
in house large enough for %, than
70 hens in house fit only for 10.
A writer in the Country Gentleman
covers somewhat the same ground,
as follows: IF you are observant.
among your hens you will notice that
the busiest ones are almost invari-
ably the best layers. Those that
jump first from the roost and begin
to hustle about for food will be
found, If In laying condition, on
the nest in two or three hours. Civ
Ing the fowls a chance TO work, and
making the winter time summer-lika
as far as possible is what brings up
the total profits for the year. The
farmer who is caring for the dairy

able yield of winter milk, sees that
she Is we'll fed with producing
feeds and kept in comfortable quar-
tiers. Take the country over, how
many farmers are there who have
their poultry on a good paying basis,
or are making any effort to place it
there? | doubt If there is one in 10.
There are probably more who are
an effort. but much of this
Is In vain. Then there are some
whose poultry pays, yet the owners
do not realize that such is the fact,
for the reason that they keep no ac-
count.
Hens to give profitable results,
must be given care and attention and
ed regularly those foods which con-
ain the properties necessary TO-
heir welfare. Very many seem to
have an idea that hens viii not lag
much in fall an1 winter any way:
hat because they produce well in
he spring and summer they will
rest the remainder of the year; be-
ieying. too that it is out of the ma

Ills. The combining work of a woman

wears, the constant bending, reach

cares of bringing up children, are all

set up congestion, with backache and

Too many women have come to
think that backache, pain through the

A. c. TO PAY FOR
WATER PRESSURE
WILL NOT ExPEND STATES
MONEY FOR WATERMAINs IN
FARGO, BUT WILL PAY FOR
PRIVILEGE OF CONNECTING
WITH EXTENSION.

'The board Of trustees of the North
Dakota A. c. are not paying out any
bonuses, nor will they pay for laying
watermains inside the city limits of
Fargo" said a member Of that board
to The Forum this morning.
AT the meeting yesterday we did
decide, however, to pay $4,000 for the
privilege Of connecting with the pres
sure from the Fargo water works
system. We are at the present time
paying out $1,000 per year in water
rents and we are not getting any
water on the third floors Of any Of the
buildings at the A. C.
THE board Is willing to appropri-
ate the states money IL they are con-
WINGED that they are getting the bene-
fits from such an expenditure. we
could not, however, get any money to
help construct watermains inside the
city limits of Fargo"
AT the meeting yesterday the board
informed Alderman Amerland, who
appeared before them as a representa-
tive of the Fargo council, that they
would pay $4,000 for the privilege OF
tapping the Waterman If the proposed
extension is put in.

BIG DRAINAGE

BOARD or TRUSTEES YESTERDAY

SUMMER - WILL NAME NEW
BUILDING "cEREs" HALL.

Plans for complete and systematic
drainage system which is to be INSTALL
ed at the North Dakota A. c. were
practically accepted at yesterdays ses-
tion OF the board OF trustees OF that
institution. The members OF the board
spent the greater portion of the after
noon in making a complete inspection
of the work of surveying, for this sys-
tenn, which has been done this sum-
mer.
The plans as they have been drawn
after a careful survey, call for several
main bitches. on the order OF road
bitches, with lateral dead furrow
bitches When completed the farm
will have a comprehensive and thor
ough system Of drainage.
Name New Women's Building.
The board started an Innovation at
the meeting yesterday by giving a
formal name to the new woman's DOR
mitory. 1t is to be called Ceres hall,
and the name will be cut on a big
stone and placed in a conspicuous
place in the cornice work of the build
ing.
This IL, the first building at the A. C.
to receive a formal name from the
board OF trustees. All of the other
buildings have been nicknamed, as
administration building, science hall,
engineering building, ETC., but have no
official cognomen. 1t is probable that
all the other buildings will be named
in the near future.
Ceres hall is a very appropriate
name for the girls dormitory OF an
agricultural college," said a member Of
the board of trustees this morning.
Ceres was one of the goddesses of
mythology. She was the daughter of
Saturn and Ops or Rhea and was the
goddess OF corn and tillage"

HAD "PAT" HAND
FOR EMERGENCIES
THIS MAN CARRIES STRAIGHT
FLUSH IN POCKET BUT CLAIMS
1T WAS PLACED THERE BY HIS
FRIENDS - ACCOMPLISHED IN
ART OF PIcKPocKETING.

Charged with picking John Ander-
sons pockets of purse containing
$15, smooth looking stranger, Han
ely Williams, is held in the city jail
awaiting a hearing this afternoon in
the police court before Judge Martin
Ryan. The fact that the police found
a pat" hand in Williams pocket,
when ne was searched, won't tend
to help his standing in the least.
1t Is evident that his favorite hand
is a straight flush, for that is what
he had slowed away, already to flash
when his opponent drew a set of fours.
The man claimed this morning that
he was a thresher and had come all
the way from South Dakota to get
work. Night Officers and witnesses
who saw him rob Anderson of his
purse will be on hand this afternoon
to tell of the incident which may
land Williams behind the bars.
