WHAT A WOMAN HAS LEARNED
ABOUT CHICKENS
The Progressive Farmer.

The Progressive Farmer
In my own experience with poultry
find that it is the simple things
that are apt to be overlooked. So
many people neglect watering their
chickens as they should. Plenty of
clean. fresh water should be kept be-
fore them all the time. Ice-cold
water is not guod for them and hens
forced TO drink it will not lay half
as well as they would If given warm
water. Keep grit and charcoal handy
and you will see how they appreciate
it. Copperas water is the best thing
have ever tried for bowel trouble
in chicks. A piece the size of q
pea in a pie-plate of water is about
the right quantity. 1t is also good
for old fowls. Above all things keep
your hen-house. coops and nest
boxes clean. BY this I mean rid them
OF mites and see that the droppings
are taken out often. You can't pos
sibly get things too clean. Catch
your chickens two or three times a
year and rub little coal oil and lard
mixed, on their heads. knees, under
their wings and where they are
feathered thickest. Be careful not
to use too much. A tiny bit rubbed
on the heads of baby chicks will kill
the lice usually found there. Notice
the young ones every week and see
that they are not full OF lice. Give
everything q good cleaning before
setting any hens. SINCE your hem
houses and coops every time you get
a chance. Pour coal oil on the roosts
and everywhere you think a louise
can hide. Use lime freely. A great
many people who are troubled with
sickness in their flocks would seldom
have sick fowl If they would OBJ
serve the above rules.
Treat your hens as you would like
to be treated. Don't give them the
same thing to eat day in and day out
that is. IL you expect them to lay.
IL you give corn once a day 1t is bet
ter to give 1t for their night feed.

The Peoples Business
And Executive Sessions.

Woodrow Wilson said the people
should know all about what their rep
resentatives are doing, and that every
thing pertaining to the peoples bust
ness should have all the publicity pos
sible.
Was he right, or should the peoples
business be conducted behind closed
doors? Nine out of ten of the people
agree with him. but office holders have
decided that there are a few details of
the peoples business that the people
should not know about. Or at least
that is the conclusion the average man
must reach when any body of officers
representing the people insist upon
holding executive sessions.
The city council does not hold execu-
rive sessions and all of the business
transacted by that body is given to the
people. But the board of public safety
and the board of county commission
ers hold star chamber sessions when
ever they feel so inclined.
Is there one reason in the world
why this should be? Does either of
these boards have anything to consider
that the people should not know about ?
Or are the members afraid to let the
people know of their discussions and
the way they vote on certain ques-
lions?
The Journal believes the members of
the boards have not thought of these
executive sessions as they really ap-
pear. They are working for the peo-
pie and what they do can only be
learned through the newspapers that
cover the meetings. During these star
chamber sessions the reporters are not
admitted, and the people just naturally
suspect, that's all.
II is not right-it is not square with
the people. Publicity is the thing in
, all honest government-the people

MOBILE FAN IS
PLEASED WITH
BASEBALL PARK
ALDERMAN c. z. COLSsoN, IDEN-
Titled FOR MANY YEARS WITH
THE MOBILE CLUB, SAYS To-
CAL PLANT EQUALS MANY IN
THE SOUTHERN LEAGUEh

Among the baseball fans from other
cities who will be in Pensacola Fri
day for the opening Of the new base
ball park is Alderman j. q. Calsson,
of Mobile. who arrived here Friday
with his family for a visit to friends
Mr.. Colsson has long been identified
with baseball in Mobile and is a fan
of the thirty third degree variety.
Ele was out to the new baseball park
yesterday afternoon and when asked
by a Journal representative what he
thought of the plant said:
This is the best minor league base
ball park that l have ever seen. 1t is
conveniently located and has been ar
ranged with a view to giving comfort
to the spectators as we'll as the play
ers. l have never seen any park
that is more conveniently arranged
than this. The grand stand is so To-
Gated that the spectators are shield
ed from the sun and at the same time
get all the breeze for the bay. The
dressing rooms for the home and Wis
iting players are so arranged that
don't think that there will be any kick
from the players, for they have every
thing that they can wish for.
The infield is very fast and COM
pares favorably with any of the Sou
thern League parks. The outfeld with
a little more work and a few hard
rains will also be ideal.
In the event Of some Of the big
leagues secure this park as a training
ground during the spring months
don't think that they will ever have
cause to regret it. as it unquestionably
is far superior to a great many of
the grounds used by them in the
south. Next spring I expect to hear
Of some Of the big leagues coming to
Pensacola to train. and If one ever
comes I predict that Pensacola will
in future be the training quarters of
at least one club.
My experience is that nothing out
side Of newspaper advertising can
advertise or boost a city as a good
and winning baseball club and the
public, recognizes this fact, should
give all encouragement and patronage
to Messrs. Oliver, Schad and Peake.
who have invested their money in the
proposition and have succeeded in
building such an ideal plant"

CITY COUNCIL
WILL CONSIDER
MONEY MATTERS
REGULAR sEMI-MoNTHLY MEET.
ING TONIGHT WILL PROBABLY
BE INTERESTING FOR SEVERAL
REASONS - SUNDAY BASEBALL
ORDINANCE WILL PROBABLY
BE PASSED.

The second regular meeting for the
month Of the city council will be held
tonight at 1880. and the session will
be of interest for several reasons. In
the first place. this is the first reg
ular meeting of the new council with
the new president, the mayor assum-
ing the presidency of the council I'M
der q recent act of the legislature.
The ordinance allowing Sunday base
ball will. in all probability, be passed
at this meeting, 1t being necessary
to secure a favorable report from The
committee to which it has been refer
red and place it on second and third
reading, which can easily be done at
a single session, provided there is no
opposition, which seems to be the case
with this ordinance.
The ordinance relating to the trans
portation of meats through the streets
of the city will probably be placed on
second reading tonight. This ordi-
nance requires that all meats and the
like shall be covered when being NOV
ed through the streets.
Two members Of the board of health
are also to be appointed by the Coun-
Gil and this will probably be done to-
night, as a number Of important mat
tiers before the board of health are
being held up to await the appoint
ment of the new members and the or
ganization of the new board.

Railroads Racing to
Pensacola.

The news report in yesterdays Jour
nal telling about the two railroads
racing to reach a certain point in Pen
sacola is one Of the best reports that
can reach the outside world. 1t shows
that two railroads are being built into
the Deep Water City on the Gulf and
it shows that the work is not project,
but a well worked out business propo-
sition.
1t means that Pensacola will have
two more roads within a few months
one connecting with the trunk lines
from the northwest and the other pene-
trating the rich coal and iron fields of
the Birmingham district.
The railroad promoters have had in
jected into their systems a bit of the
Pensacola spirit of push and hustle and
are working day and night. Pensacola
has been handed several gold bricks in
railroad schemes, but that is history
now and for the present we have two
railroads, the promoters Of which have
ample financial backing to rush them
to completion.
The promoters are rushing to get tc
Pensacola and Pensacola people are
overjoyed that no let up in the work
on either Of the roads will occur.
With three railroads entering the
city from four different directions and
with prospects for additional steamship
lines, the prosperity of the Deep Wa.
ter City is beyond estimation. The
only object the citizens now have is t

Fine Crops Near Atmore.

The Herald editor has been out
among some of the farmers around At
more this week, and we found some of
the finest crops we ever saw. The dry
weather has allowed nearly every
farmer to get the grass out, and we
found but few crops with prospect of
hay among the corn and cotton. The
farmers about Atmore are an indus
trious set of fellows and they take ad-
vantage of the dry weather and work
the crops as they should. They have
kept the grass killed out and at the
same time have made a dust mulch
which is the finest thing to do in dry
weather to keep the moisture up. The
cotton fields are dotted here and there
with blooms and the corn has a fine
color. The prospects are very encour-

Women who bear children and re-
