Connection With GraceviIIe.
It has also been reported that Mari
anna will also have a connection with
GTaceviIIe by the L & N, and the
citizens are interested in doing all they
can to induce this line to build here,
as it is well known that the original
idea of the L. & y. was 10 continue
the railroad from GFacevilIe to or near
this point. This will give our people
very much shorter route to the
north and northwest, which has been
SO badly needed. we trust that the
L. & \. viii not overlook the fact
that Mariana has always given her
more freight and passenger tTaf1c
than any town on the line, and when
other roads, which are sure to be
built, reach Mariana, the volume Of
business will be more than doubled in
a short time. The citizens feel kindly
toward this road, for they realize that
it has already done much for the
town and there is no spirit manifest
ed except to do justice toward all
railroads coming into our midst.

Alfalfa Meal For Poultry.

We Ind that, as a rule, our hens
fed on alfalfa meal lay very fertile
eggs, which produce strong, vigorous
and healthy chicks. We also find
that they will moult quicker in the
tall and commence to lay earlier in
The season. For laying hens we put
several quarts of alfalfa meal into a
closed vessel. then pour boiling water
over the meal until 1t is thoroughly
molstened; place cover over the
vessel and let the mixture steep for
! while.
Just before the feeding dash little
cold water over the feed. This brings
out the green color, and the whole
presents very pleasing appearance
and is as near grass as any feed can
be. Some prefer to mix the meal
with table scraps or grain. both of
which add palatability and variety
to the mash. Bone meal and meat
scraps make excellent additions to
alfalfa or clover meal, both Of which
are concentrated feeds and great egg
tproducers.-A. L. c., Iowa Agricul-
tural College.

an enormous spider which he called

ed by some boys on his plantation
The spider was an inch and half
long and half an inch broad before
having been killed and drawn to its
smallest compass. Before being killed
it was much larger. The animal was
equipped with ten legs, four at the
PROV and six at the stern, and par

in the ground and decided to inves.
tigate. After digging for a while
they came upon an odd looking nest
Frying it open they found the spider
inside. The nest was provided with
"a trap door, which the spider could
close after himself, as he went into
the nest, and would be safe from in,

nest to the city with him. It was a
very ingeniously contrived affair and
was Of almost as much interest as the
spider itself.-From the Anderson

Poultry Notes.

Protect your poultry from spring
rains.
Sour table scraps are not good for
poultry.
Whole corn is good for laying hens
during cold weather. IA
Hens do better If kept in separate
lots OF twenty-five each.
Give the laying hens fresh water
slightly warmed three times a day
during cold weather.
Large breeds should never be kept
In the same flock with small breeds.
Table scraps should be cooked and
given to the laying hens. 81
When hens acquire the feather
pulling habit they should be sent to
market at once.
Feed the laying hens at daybreak
and shutdown, and keep them work
ing the entire time between.
Roosts for poultry should be placed
on a level, SO that there can be no
preferred positions.
Lice always attack poultry more
when they are in an unthrffty condi.
ton than when they are we'll fed and
properly cared for.
If hens are confined to the poultry
house on cold days, see to it that they
do not have to stand on the bare
floor. Use straw, cornstalks, corn
husks or other dry material for q
floor covering. Hens with cold feet
will not lay very many eggs.
Although turkeys will eat snow
they should not be permitted to do
so. but should be given plenty OF
fresh, clean water.
When raising turkeys for market
medium sized ones will be found bet.
ter than extra large ones.
Save few Of the old turkey hens.
as the two-year-old is a better breeder
than the young hen.
Turkeys should not be housed with
chickens, as they require different
conditions.

Big Prices For Fruit Lands.

Hagerstown.-The price of land
around Hancock. especially in the
fruit belt, is rapidly advancing. due
to the money being made by the fruit
growers of that locality. The own
ers of the Norris farm, at the foot
of Round Top, adjoining the Tonolo-
way Orchard Company, one of the
most extensive fruit companies in
Western Maryland. are asking $lO,-
600 for the place. Land in that
vicinity before fruit growing became
one of the leading industries sold
for $40 an acre.

but the instruments are so cushioned
that they cannot suffer from fall
and are labelled so that recovery is
comparatively easy.
An expedition dispatched by A.
Lawrence Rotch, of the United States,
and French expert, Teisserenc dc
Bort, last summer tried to make
soundings of the atmosphere over the
Atlantic near the equator at a con.
siderable height. Though some of the
balloons sent up by this party rose
nearly ten miles, they failed to reach
the Sisothermal layer" where the cold
would not increase. Their theor-
mometers continued to register lower
temperatures the higher. they rose.
Mr. Rotch was confident that the iso
thermal layer really existed, but sus.
pected that it was at a greater eleva.
ton than was reached by the instru-
ments. 1t now appears that Ger
man expedition sent out to East Africa
by DIR. Assmann found that at a level
considerably above that to which bal
looms went over the Atlantic not only
was almost unprecedented cold found.
but above 1t there was comparative.
Ivy warm stratum. This was discov.
cred last December over Lake Vic
toria, near the equartor. The. change
from intense cold to moderate tenn.
peratures was observed twice-once
at an elevation Of $4,000 feet above
(about eleven miles) and once at &c.
900 feet (barelg thirteen miles).
Especially remarkable, says DR..
Assmann, is the great average de.
crease of temperature with altitude
found over Lake Victoria; the lowest
temperature encountered at $1,000 feet
was 119 below zero, Fahrenheit, with
a temperature at the ground $500
feet above sea leveD of 70 above zero,
a difference of almost 200 degrees!
The variability OF the temperature at
high levels is enormous in equatorial
as well as in higher latitudes. Two
ascents gave readings at -, 900 feet
Of 105 below zero. respectively.
In addition to the ascents of sound:
ing balloons a number OF small pilot
balloons were sent UP to great alti-
tudes to explore the direction and
velocity of the upper air currents, and
these showed the presence Of an up
permost surrent of air blowing near.
ly from due west, and flowing above
the regular easterly current Of the
equatorial region. A similar discovery
was made some time ago at Cairo,
Egypt, by B. F. e. Keeling.
The ascents over Lake Victoria
were made from a low powered
launch, and would have yielded better
results had faster boat been avail
able. It is stated that with q vessel
having speed of some twelve miles
an hour this lake is the best place
in the world for sounding balloon as
cents.

PLANK BLOWN THROUGH TREE.
Remarkable Testimony to the Force
of the Recent Georgia Tornado.

Remarkable Testimony to the Force
of the Recent Georgia Tornado. n
Each day brings to light some new
freak of the tornado which caused
death and destruction in this part OF
the State a few days ago, says the
Atlanta Georgian.
AS an evidence of the, freakish
force of the wind big pine tree and
large plank on the property of the
Hon. s. NJ Roberts. about twelve
miles from here, are now joined as
II done by an expert carpenter.
Although the tree was a large one
the plank was picked and driven
through the centre as neatly as II
shot from a gun. Not only was the
plank shot through the tree, but 1t
went through without tearing the
tree.
The plank was picked up in the
yard OF Mr.. Roberts's sawmill and
other planks in the pile were not
molested by the wind. So singular
does Mr. Roberts consider this &C.
ton or the tornado that he has posi-.
ed a notice telling how the plank
was driven through the big pine and
ordering that 1t shall not be cut
down.

Keeplng EGG RECORD.

For keeping account of eggs re-
ceived hang a calendar with white
background near the door of my
poultry house, so that on returning
from visit to the hens the number
of eggs may be marked each day with
the pencil attached. In this manner
daily. weekly and monthly account
is kept, and know what the average
is per hen for any length of time.
From this 1t is easy to calculate how
hens pay. It takes only few sec
onds a day for the record.

j. G. Ernst's Barn Burned.

Hagerstown.-Fire destroyed the
large barn ON the farm of former
County Commissioner Joseph G.
Ernst, at Dry Run, this county. en-
failing loss of about $1,000, partly
covered by insurance. Mr.. Ernst's
son, VIM. Ernst, is tenant on the
farm. The fire is believed to have
started by children playing with
matches. Eighteen hundred bushels
of wheat, so tons of hay, all the
farming implements, etc., were de-
stroyed. Mr.. Ernst had insurance
on the barn, but nothing on the con-
tents. There was no live stock in
the buildings at the time
