will be settled at the meeting. Clerks
from Minnesota, Wisconsin,, North

One of the principal questions to
come up will undoubtedly be whether
or not oil the clerks of the Tenth
division will stand by the men on the
Tracy-Pierre run and set a date for a
general walkout.
Superintendent Norman Perkins
broke his silence and admitted con

Says Congestion Is Slight.
II have received a telegram from
the chief clerk at Rapid City," said
Mr.. Perkins, lin which he tells me
that there has been a slight 'conges-
ton at his station, caused by the
breaking in of several new men on the
Tracy-Pierre run. But he says that
all the delayed mail will be cleaned
up shortly and that he will use only
regulars to do the work. A message
from the chief clerk at Pierre tells
me that the congestion has been
cleaned up and that the mail is be-
ing delivered as usual"
Mr.. Perkins said that he had re-
ceived no notification from the post
Office department at Washington in re-

PRODUCTION OF BR0ILERS
Young Birds Should Be cooped Up
and Well Fed.

It is not practical for poultry raisers
to give their broilers much range,
when it is intended to put them on
the market at an early day. It has
been suggested, at the Minnesota Elk.
pertinent Station, that fattening stock
should be confined in small quarters,
with an abundance of fresh air and
water, and proper sanitary conditions;
and be fed on wholesome, fattening
food. The same amount of food that
such stock would be fed during a CIV
en- time, when running at large, will
produce the desired marketing condi-
lions much quicker if the stock is kept
in confinement. 1t is therefore mat
ter of economy to coop the young
birds intended for market, and convert
them into cash early. - |%s,%#

dNAV BARK OF TREES.
Great Injury Is Done During the Win
ter Months by Rabbits
and Mice.

Injury is often caused during the
winter by mice and rabbits gnawing
the bark of small trees; in some cases
entirely girdling them. This may be
prevented by covering the trunks of
the trees with lath or wire protectors,
fine enough to keep out mice. Re-
move rubbish from next the trees, or
tramp the snow down closely around
them, to protect from injury by mice.
If there is heavy fall of snow during
the winter, or it banks up around the
trees, rabbits often injure the branch
es that they can reach from the drifts.
The surest preventive for this injury
is to use a boy and shotgun to kill
all rabbits about the place. They may
also be caught in various types OF
traps Smearing the trees with blood
is also a deterrent.-Le Roy Cady,
Minnesota University Farm.

RHuBARB FOR WINTER USE
Plant Can Be Grown Successfully in
the Cellar.


Where one has a nice patch Of rhu-
barb on the place, it is sometimes de-
sirable to take up a large clump or
several plants; allow them to freeze;
then place them in the cellar in soil;
water carefully, and allow the plants
to grow. Rhubarb should be placed in
temperature of from 40 to so de.
grees for best growth. If grown in
the dark, the leaves are very small,
and the stalk is large and tender.
Three or four ordinary clumps of rhu.
barb will furnish good many messes
during the winter. This forcing de.
stroys the plants for further use.-Le

Sumter.

Just half a century ago-April u.
1861. to be exact-Captain George S.
James of the recently organized Con-
federate forces, carrying out an order
from General P. G. T. B%eauregard.
fired a signal gun from the battery at
Fort johnson. on James island. in
Charleston harbor. at 4:30 o'clock in
the morning. The shell burst immedi-
ately over Fort Sumter. That was the
first gun fired in the civil war. which
proved to be the most terrible conflict
of modern times. A little later Ed
mund Rufin, an aged Virginian, fred
another shell. which burst directly
upon the parapet Of the fort. Not long
afterward Captain Abner Doubleday,
second in command to Majof Robert
Anderson in Fort Sumter, fired the
first shot in reply. and the four years
war was on.
Today the battle battered walls of
old Fort Sumter, scene of this mem
orable event, rise from the placid
waters of the harbor, her old time guns
cleaning in the soft sunshine of the
south. and q reunited nation rejoices in
the peace and prosperity Of a union of
states which has grown stronger with
each passing year. AS Thomas Paine
said of the early days of the Ameri-
can Revolution. those were the times
that tried mems souls. For four long
years the conflict ragged over an area
nearly 1000 miles from east to west
and nearly q thousand miles from
north to south. More than $500 en-
gagements of sufficient Importance to
be %chronicled as battles were fought.
while the smaller skirmishes were al
most ~innumerable.
The result Of that war settled for
ever the question of slavery. which
had agitated the nation for MANY
years. Hitherto humble names leaped
into the light Of imperishable renown.
Abraham Lincoln. Robert e. Lee,
ulysses S. Grant. Stonewall Jackson,
were nodded into majestic historical
figures. Hundreds of thousands of
brave men fell.
Let us have peace" said Grant at
Appomattox, and that is the sentiment
Of every American. Now there is no
