Ernie Ovitz, who is studying medi-
cine in Chicago was out for an over
Sunday visit with his folks. BY the
way, it is pretty well known by Tribune
readers that Ernie has been quite pro-
fieient at pitching ball from early boy
hood that as member of the local
high school team and the Illinois Uni
versity team, from both of which in
situations of learning he graduated, he
was terror to all rival clubs. 1t will
be pleasing to his many friends to learn
that upon his return to Chicago he will
enter into a contract to play with the
famous Cubs, his release from Topeka,
Kan, having been bought. Besides
his skill Ernie has every requisite of
habit, character and principle to make
good.

In September, 1875, the progressive
citizens of Mineral Point readily united
on having high school under the state

system in due time, and ever since the
standard thereof has been kept up to
the best known throughout the state.
The first class graduated from this
institution was in 1879, making this
years class the thirty-third, and by
the way, the largest during this period
of time covering one-third of cen

STUDENTS TEST
LAYING CAPACITY

Interesting tests for egg laying have
been conducted at the Oregon Agricul-
tural College by John II. Mack, a
special poultry student from Portland.
In these tests single-comb white leg
horns were used, five pullets and a
cockerel being given run of but l0xl0
feet, in which space was the house, SO
that they We're in close confinement.
The house was a 6X3A foot brooder coop
rearranged for their use. Half was
used for roosting quarters and half for
scratching shed.
This scratching shed was kept bedded
with straw about inches deep, and
large part of the whole grain given
the fowls was fed here, although some
was fed in the yard to induce the fowls
to scratch outside when the weather
permitted. The front of the house
consisted of two doors which were
either wide open or partly so even in
the coldest winter weather. No i'll
effects were noticed, and the egg
record and general vitality of the flock
showed that they were benefited by the
more nearly natural conditions, al
though the cold sometimes seemed ex-
lTCHC lOI iutHbs
As the soil was rather heavy, several
inches of sawdust were spread on the
ground, so that the chickens did not
track in the cold, wet mud, and had
good scratching place which dried
rapidly after a rain.
A dry mash was fed them in hoppers,
and whole grain, oats in the morning
and wheat in the afternoon, strown in
the litter. The fowls ate only about
one-third as much oats as wheat, but
as there were oats and barley in the
mash. they probably made up defcien,
cies there. The mash, which was red |
dry and kept constantly before them, |
consisted of two parts of bran to one |
of ground corn and one of ground oats |
and barley.
Other hoppers to which they had |
access all the time held beef scrap, /
charcoal grit ana ground shell. A
good supply of kale was kept before
them to pick at, and good, fresh water
always within reach.
They were all apparently in good
lealth throughout the experiment, but
