SHOOTING SGRAPE
AMONG ITALIANS
Murder Of One is Attempted

MT. CLAIRE, April l4-Much ex-

THE FLYER"
May Again Run Between the
City of Pittsburg and
Weston.

WESTON, April 14-Cltizensl of
Weston remember the flyer" as
the train from Weston to Plttsburg
was familiarly known few years
since. This flyer" was the greatest
convenience the B. 6 o. has ever
given Weston. For certain reasons
the management decided to with
draw II from the scheduled service,
to the great disadvantage of the
public.
A move is now on foot to reinstate
this train and again place it on the
schedule.
With the increased patronage the
increased demand would afford, the
railroad would gain from this train
sufficient revenue to pay fair
profit from its installation ana this
would increase until it would be a
paying feature of the road.
Weston is entitled 10 more con-
stderation from the Baltimore and
Ohio, but this is what is most desired
at present, and it is earnestly hoped
that the management will accom-
modate the public by giving them
this train in the May schedule,

FAReos FILTRATION PLANT.

Fargoans are becoming FESTIVE over
he slow progress OF the preliminary
york for filtration plant in Fargo,
Bonds were issued and the plant au-
lhorized some months ago. The wa
Ier committee of the council junketed
10 a number OF cities and secured
some good ideas. They made an ini-
lial report but matters are being de-
aged while awaiting another.
City Engineer Anders proposes to
personally prepare the plans for the
lew plant, in detail. He had secured
The assistance Of a consulting engi-
beer in Minneapolis, who has since
lied. He now has the cooperation
# another.
Many people in Fargo hoped the
council would let the contract for the
plant early so the successful bidder
;ould assemble the material and be
ready to begin work as soon as spring
opens. This will now be an impos-
ability and the work is likely to drag
through a greater part Of the year.

THE BIG FIVE.

What I'VE women have done most to
advance the cause of woman in the
world?
In answer to this question, one New
Yorker submitted this list: Elizabeth
cady Stanton, Susan B, Anthony, Julia
Ward Howe, Catherine Beecher and
Mrs. Anna Shaw.
Another contestant omitted Gather
ne Beecher and included Belva Lock-
wood.
Practically all the women who sub
nitted lists failed to mention Mrs
Pankhurst and her two militant
daughters. This would seem to indi-
,ate that the English suffragette lead.
.rs are not universal favorites il
America.
Frances E. willard, Clara Bartor
and Florence Nightingale are other
women whose names were included in
ZONE of the lists.
Still other lists contained the namt
If Mary Lyon, the founder Of Mt
Holyoke college.
An examination of all the names
submitted shows that the compilers be-

past are insignificant-as compared
with the strides the friends and de-
lenders Of women have made in the

FACTORS IN WINTER
EGG PRODUCTION.

Prof. o. w. Dynes, assistant pro-
lessor of animal industry the agri-
cultural college says:
Chief among the factors effecting the
egg production of hens during the Win
| ter are: First, the strain Of fowl; sec
oad, proper housing; third, method of
| feeding; fourth, care and management
There is no best breed of fowls and
one can suit his own individual taste
| in the selection of variety so long
as the choice falls upon one OF the Wen
known standard breeds. Care should
be taken. however, to procure a good
strain within the variety. Only birds
known to come from vigorous, heavy
| laying early maturing strain should be
purchased. Early Matched pullets are
necessary for early winter egg produc-
ton. One and 2-year old hens are not
to be relied on to produce eggs in mid
winter.
The right kind of housing is an all
important factor. The type of house
giving the best results over the coun-
| try is the curtain front house. Light
duclxings heavy muslin or coarse bur
| lap stretched on a wooden frame Is
used in place Of part of the glass win
dows that were formerly used to ex-
cess. This curtain Is simply a new
type of ventilator. The old fiue system
Of ventilation has proved inadequate.
The North Dakota Experiment station
has recently published a press bulle-
tin on the construction Of a modern
poultry house, copy of which may be
had for the asking.
North Dakota is primarily grain
producing state and because of this fact
eficient and economical poultry ra-
lions can be easily provided. Wheat
may constitute half of the grain ra-
ton and the balance oats and corn
half, and half by weight. The hop
per system of feeding the dry mash is
being generally used as this method
acts as a short of a balance wheel
to the grain ration. A simple dry
mash may be made up Of two parts OF
bran, two parts Of shorts or middlings
| and one part Of beef scraps. The grain
can be fed morning and evening in a
| litter of,straw thus compelling the birds
to take plenty of exercise in hunting
for their food. Nothing should be fed
that is musty or foul in any way.
TOO much Importance cannot be placed
| on the general care of fowls during
winter housing Regularity OF. feeding
| and exacting care in every detail of
management are prime requisites to
success In handling laying fowls The
| personal equation Is an extremely inn
portant factor and no definite rule Of
procedure can be followed with an as-
snrance OF success in every case Give
the hen square deal and she will
