NOTES.

In the practical management Of
fowls on limited areas. the fowls
should be supplied with foods similar
to what they obtain on free range
such as green food. which can be
supplied in alfalfa meal at a moder
ate cost. and fresh water. meat meal
and grit. Plenty Of exercise is es
sential.

BOOK ACCOUNT UsEFU1..

If the breeder will keep a book &C
count of the feeds and the amounts
derived from them when fed to poul-
try and to stock, he will soon be con-
WINGED that he has been overlooking
the best money-maker on the farm.
Many labor under the impression that
1t requires too much attention, too
much thought and study to make any
thing out of poultry. This argument
might have held good years ago, but
at the present time poultry culture
has been worked out on such per-

Plain and Tucked Bishop Sleeves

Plain and Tucked Bishop Sleeves.
The bishop sleeve is always grace
full one. Just now it makes the
latest style, and is made both with
and without a cap and both plain and
tucked. Here are three, all of which
are attractive and graceful. One is
made with an oddly shaped cuff, one
with deep cuff pointed at the inner
edge and one is cut off in three-quar-
ter length and Joined to straight
band, but all are equally correct. For
the sleeves any pretty thin material
is appropriate, and the cuffs can be
made to match or Of contrasting ma
terial, as liked. When the cap is
used 1t should be in contrast, and a
pretty effect is obtained by making
the cap to match the blouse and the
sleeves of thinner material, such as
chiffon, net, lace or muslin. All-over
lace makes exceedingly handsome
cuffs, but any pretty material can be
utilized.
The sleeves are all made over fitted
foundations which are cut with up
per and under portions. The plain
puffs, or bishop portions, are slightly
full and gathered at the upper and
lower edges. Whichever cuff is used
is arranged over the lower portion Of

SMALL LOTS PROFITABLE.


The successful handling of fowls
on unlimited range is looked upon as
more profitable than the keeping OF
fowls on the village or city lot, yet
the net profit per fowl is not infre
quently much greater for the man
with limited area than for the other.
Excellent results along strictly util.
ity lines have been and are being at
tanned upon limited areas, while In
the line of standardized fowls Of
high merit and an abundance in egg
yield, many small-lot poultry keepers
are obtaining surprising percentage
of profit on capital invested in their
enterprise. The average person Is
apt to think that not much can be
done on a poultry plant limited to
two or three lots. but with a we'll
bred flock Of fowls of great produc-
tivity. and with properly located
buildings and yards. the small poul.
try keeper. II possessed of ability.
has many opportunities to obtain
splendid results in market sales and
in good thoroughbred breeding stock.

LATE MATCHES.

The latter part of August, If cool.
is a good time to start fall hatch.
If the weather is hot. it should be
delayed into September. Fall matches
depend a great deal on the weather
of the fall and early winter months.
II the weather is nice and open a
limited number of fall chicks will
thrive and pay for their trouble and
keep. However, If the weather is
rainy and cold in November and
early December, unless you have
brood houses and give the chicks spe-
cial care, the chicks shiver and
"cheep" around, VII be stunted. and
not worth their keep. A few late
chicks come in handy for home use
and can be raised profitably, but
there are too many ''ifs" to make
them profitable market proposition.

put the chick between your knees so
you can hold it; take you string and
put 1t over the little fork in its
tongue; draw its tongue out, stick
your blue grass in the turpentine,
and then into the windpipe, as far
down as possible; remove it with a
constant twist; give the chick some

Mongolia
In Lead
ALAMEDA FIVE MILES BEHIND
PACIFIC MAIL STEAMER AT s
O'CLOCK LAST NIGHT.

The Pacific Mail has won the first
media and the Mongolia to the Coast.
The Alameda won first blood when she
drew away from the larger vessel as
they passed out of port, but wireless
advices received last night through the
Kahuku station show that the Oceanic
vessel was unable to maintain her
advantage. At 8 O'Clock last night
the Mongolia had gained the fifteen
miles needed to bring her alongside
and then had taken five miles more in
the way of lead.
The result so far is just what was
generally expected The Alameda
in smooth weather with her ordinary
steamng would be somewhat faster
than the Mongolia With rough wea-
! lher, such as the steamers have been
encounterng however, the tables are
/ turned. The Mongolia with her huge
bulk, can force her way through a sea
which seriously inteferes with the
/ other steamer When the vessels
get away from the northeasterly storm
as they probably will before long, the
Alameda may be able to pick upssome
of the distance she has lost.
One other thing should be remem-
bered in the matter that as a matter
of fact neither of the vessels are ac-
,tually racing. The Mongolia is held
down to a certain limit in the amount
of coal which she eXpends and Captain
Morton uses only part Of his boilers
instead of the full battery. In the
same way Captain DOwdell stated that
he would not try to force the Ala.
media, but would simply keep her or
her regular schedule time. If the
Mongolia used all her boilers and un.
limited coal. which she certainly vii
not, she ought to be able to beat the
Alameda handily.

today on IL question reserved by Judge
Robinson in the equity suit a bill for
accounting, of l.. l.. McCandless VS..
w. r. Castle, trustee under the will
of Joshua r. Williams, and the heirs

was whether the demurrers should be
sustained. 1t is answered by the court
in the negative. A. G.. NJ. Robertson
represented the plaintiff, and A l.,
Castle and w. A. Grenwell the de-
PENDANTS The law of the case is
thus set forth in the syllabus:
"An equitable life interest in the in
come of land, the legal title of which
is held by a trustee subject to divi-
sion upon an event still in the future,
is alienable and it's assignment will be
| enforced in equity.
"a partial assignment of such an
interest, made without the assent of
but with notice to the trustee, is good

| An ordinary warranty deed oper-
ates in equity as an assignment to the
grantee of the grantor's equitable life
interested in the income of the pro-
perty described"
