Stock and Poultry Notes.

Can hen be fooled by trick of the
imagination into laying three eggs in
stead of one every twenty-four hours?
This ls the question some fakirs are
now working on. Hens are to be kept
in absolute darkness for several hours
to represent the night, then brilliant
electric light is to be turned on at
intervals to represent daylight. These
fakirs declare that hens carry large
numbers of embryo eggs which are
n-ver laid because of the long estab
lished habit OF laying but one every
day.
We see various egg foods recon-
mended for hens with wonderful re-
suits promised if they are used. Yet
why pay out money for commercial
stiWulants if one has alfalfa to depend
upon? 1t is fact that this legume Is
richer in protein and egg-making elo-
ments than any other forage either of
the clovers or grasses. AS litter for
brooders and brooder runs the shatter-
ings from alfalfa stacks are ideal. The
little fellows eat it up so fast that it
has to be frequently renewed, but they
prosper on this addition to their
ration. 1t is so sweet smelling they
love to scratch in its cool fragrance.
In alfalfa and kaffir corn we have
two drouth resisting plants that are
excellent yielders for any dairyman
good soil alfalfa will produce from four
to six and even seven tons of hay to
the acre. On the average alfalfa hay
contains seventeen per cent of digesti-
BILE protein. Kaffir corn on upland has
averaged thirty-five bushels of grain to
the acre while corn under the same con-
ditions has averaged forty-six bushels
when grown by the Campbell system.
With alfalfa and kaffir corn meal butter
fat can be produced at twelve cents a
pound. With kaffir corn meal on,-
third. bran one-third and ground oats
one-third, with all the kaffir corn stover
the cows will eat butter fat has been
produced for ten cents a pound, an acre
of kaffir corn is worth more than an
acre of corn however as grown without
irrigation in this dry climate.
sheep to Craze off is fiat turnips which
are good until about the first of the
year. After that they become woody
and pulpy. Rutabagas will keep in
storage until grass time. We do not
know of any other feed sheep relish
more than roots nor anything that will
make sheep grow faster in winter than
liberal supply of roots fed in connec-
tion with their other feed in right pro-
portion. The roots should be run
through cutter or pulper to give best
results. Ewes as rule that have had
liberal supply of roots through the
winter in connection with other feeds
and fed in the right proportions will at
lambing time be in full bloom of health
and have an abundance of milk. They
will be glad to own and take good care
of their lambs as good mother should.
On the other hand, when ewes lack ex
ercise or are confined too closely and
have poor quality of hay and straw
with no roots or succulent feed the re-
suits are many times disastrous. As
rule great many of these ewes will at
lambing time be bilious. feverish, con-
stipated, have caked udders with little
or no milk, have weak lambs and
great many times disown them.

Too Expensive For No. Demo-
Gratis.

Thepoetry OF the inaugural Beau
ty Contest" was rudely shattered
Saturday. Inquiries OF the Insugur-
al Committee made by Senator'S and
Representatives who contemplated
entering candidates for the presi-
Dental escort and for the special
mountsd staff 10 the parade have
brought out the fact that each en-
trant for the escort to the ball must
put up IS for q ticket, and that the
members OF the staff must pay their
way to Washington and provide
their own mounts.
On Inauguration day 1t is estimat-
ed that any live horse will rent for
$50. This sum at least will procure
such an animal as may only be suf-
fering with blindness and SPAWN.

tire tall, a name In fair state OF pre-
servation and one eye In working
order, he will hire for an amount not
far short Of a couple Of hundred dol.
lars. OF course, small reduction
may be allowed In the case OF horses
not broken to saddle.
For these reasons the legislators
for the most part are baking. At
best Ii is embarrassing for them to
take the responsibility Of selecting
the handsomest OF men Of their re-
spective states. Other men, think
ing themselves as handsome or more
so, might feel sighted. But 1t caps
the climax when they are compelled
TO take the question Of riches into
consideration.
Ii is felt by the Congressman that
the introduction OF the dollar sign
into the Issue absolutely precludes
the possibility OF a successful result,
sesthetically speaking. For this
reason Champ Clark probably will
not ask either Valentine Tampley or
Judge Elisha Gates, whose boards
are eleven and hall and ten and a
hall feet long, respectively, to repre-
sent his district in the parade.
The other Missouri members are
likely to follow Mr.. Clsrk's example.

Why Missouri Land is Going Up.

People In she north and the east
who intend TO make their home in
some other country are now asking
about Missouri and many OF them
arein the state looking Tor q suitsble
location. Land has become too high
in the east for farming purposes, too
much invested for the per cent gain
ed and the family protection asks
for better conditions whereby each
member may be benefited. The
land in Missouri that sells from $40
80 s75 per acre is as good as most OF
the $3.50 land In the east and the
climate conditions are far better ev-
cry day In the year. There is plenty
of land In Missouri, good land too,
that can be bought for $25 per acre
and some other much less. The peo-
pie Of other countries are fast finding
out the good qualities OF Missouri,
and they are not slow In finding
home here. The prejudice OF a few
years ago is vanishing, In fact It has
nearly disappeared for IL only re-
mains In the minds OF the illiterste.
Let them come and We will try and
house every one OF them and give
them q home that will always be a
blessing to them and their children,
Missouri always has plenty and some
to spare. The congested districts Of
the older settled countries must lessen
and In that act many Of their best
people seek homes elsewhere. Mis-
souri, has her door open TO oil good
people who desire home and her
doors will never close to the indus.

Mexican Hlnister TaIks.

Mexico City, Dec. 27--.'Not precise ly." was the comment of Minister of Foreign Relations, Ignacio Mariscal to- night after Feadfn8 dispatch from Manague in which 1t was stated that Mexico was understood to have &C., cepted zelaya virtually as a prisoner and dad agreed to prevent his return to Nicaragua. He Is not prisoner, and we have not specifically agreed that he should not return to his coun- try" declared Mr. Mariscal. "Tacitly, yes, we recognized his government while he was at It's head: we must recognize the government of his suc- cessor. To allow him to return to Nicaragua we realize would be to foment trouble for the new govern ment He Is free, however, to go to any other country he may choose.
 'As to responsibility for his per- son, we have assumed none. We are naturally responsible for his acts while a guest in this country and would not knowingly permit him to conspire against the government mal agreements with any government or person with respect to him or his person or acts, nor have we been asked to make such agreement"
 As to Zelaya's responsibility for his alleged crimes Minister Marical said that he considered that he was answerable only to the people of his country and in the capacity of the of ficial position which he held and not personally.
