Another Lie Nailed.

When all other sources OF news
fail with some OF the newspapers
in the eastern section Of the Unit
ed States, and not always excepting
West Virginia, II is always in order
to spring a new story about the
Hatfields These are swallowed
with great gusto by the gullible
public, however untrue or unfair to
the long suffering Hatfields they
may be. The latest is that Cap"
Hatfield shot nine times recently
at some Virginia revenue officers
who tried to arrest him. One OF
our exchanges comments on the
matter as follows, which is very
much to the point:
The report sent out from the
Norfolk & Western section CON
corning Cap Hatfield having shot
number of times at some United
States Deputy Marshals who were
attempting to arrest him turns out
to be falsehood
In fact anybody who knows Cap
might have known there was some
thing leaky' about the story, when
1t said that Hatfield had shot nine
times and had missed the mark
every time.
Cap is not the old and decrepit
man and leader, of the Hatfield clan
as some OF the newspapers declare
he is. He is probably As years old
and is as s)ry as he ever was
plenty able to give the reporter who
sent out that story a genuine lick
ing, after the old way, without the
aid of a Winchester 1t is nearly
time for those who know nothing
about the Hatfields to cease max
ing themselves utterly ridiculous by
writing stories which bear no sem
blance of correctness.
Every person of that name is at
once styled the notorious leader or
head OF the Hatfield Clan" when
in fact there are numerous people
of that name in this section who

in the pen l find the dropping
boards must be cleaned every other
day. and the latter is practically
worn out inside OF a month. Some
allow the droppings to fall on the
floor, where they freeze. and by oc-
casionally sprinkling them with a
little land plaster prevent any bad
odor do not favor this plan.
Fresh, water and succulent green
food are absolutely necessary for
winter egg production, The egg is
about 30 per cent. water, and the
body of the hen contains nearly so
per cent, 1t is therefore apparent
that she must have a liberal supply
of water. Foods contain from 10
to so per cent water and some Of
the green foods as high as so per
cent, but these she is not apt to
get in large quantities during the
winter, The drinking water should
always be fresh and palatable. Green
food not only supplies considerable
moisture, but is great aid in di-
gesting other foods.
Proper feeding is one of the most
essential factors in egg production,
but other requirements must be met
or the best food in the world will
not make the hens lay. The neg
lect of seemingly unimportant mat
ters will often check laying, so care
must be given to every detail. Make
the fowls comfortable at the start,
and it will require little labor to
keep them SO. Then with good feed
we can expect winter eggs.

Perch Floating Down Guyan.

A very peculiar circumstance
which is causing much comment
and is the cause of much theoriZing
is the floating of shoals OF white
perch down the Guyan river and
into the Ohio, The fish began COM
ing down stream several days ago
and are still floating. They appear
on their backs. near the surface OF
the water, and upon examination
appear to be in a stunned condition.
Several theories have been advane-
ed to account for the strange Incl
dent, but as yet no satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION has been made. Some
think that the fish are in a torpid
condition caused from freezing, and
that they have sought the warmth
of the rivers surface.
Large numbers OF the perch have
been taken from the stream and
examined. and othter than their tor
pid condition they present no dis
eased appearance.
The water of the river has been
examined. too. although no chemical
analysis has been made, and II
shows no traces of having been pol
luted. That the fish have not been
poisoned by the pollution OF the
stream is made evident by the fact
that the floating fish are all perch,
while poison in the water would af-
feet alike all species of fish in the
river.

Agricultural field products we're
produced in West Virginia during
the year 1909 to the amount of
$1S,362,839. The value of the fruit
products amounted to $2,3S2,631.20,
while the value of live stock
amounted to $44,61S,529.S0.
These figures are gathered from
reports made by the assessors in
the several counties of West Vir-
ginia to the department of agricul-
ture and compiled for the year by
secretary J. NJ. Milan.
These statistics show that inter
est in agriculture in West Virginia
is increasing and the value of the
crops was larger in 1909 than in
the previous year.
Corn was king among the pro-
ducts of the field and there was
produced over 100000 bushels
of corn in the State during the past
year of a value of over $4,000, 0o0
The value of the hay crop was abou
one half as large.
The apple was king among the
fruits produced in West Virginia in
1909. and the reports show that
there we're 3,12S,9O6 bushels of ap-
pies produced in the State with a
value OF S1,S87,330.6O.
In the live stock reported to the
department of agriculture it IL
shown that there were 2S5.40t
