Peanuts Fatten Hogs

Of peanuts is doubled when they
are used as a food for fattening
hogs. He had a large tract of
land planted in peanuts the past
season but refused 20 sell because

fifty or sixty cents per bushel.

In forty more days following
they were given nothing but
peanuts and water, a total of
five bushels of nuts were fed to
them. When the hogs were
first penned their weight was
one hundred and ten pounds and
at the end of the forty days the
weight increased to one hundred
and ninety-one pounds. gaining
a total weight of eighty-one
pounds in forty days. Quite

INTERCHANGE OF GRIM WIT
How General Sherman and Colonel

An interchange OF grim wit between

persons present at the interview. Col

The incident. which he tells as :ol.

The vessel soon reached point al

rebel batteries and directly afterward

After some business conversation
concerning the exchange Of prisoners
the entire party entered into general
conversation. Colonel Watts and Gen
eral Sherman discussed the probable
results OF the war. The discussion
became heated and Colonel Watts
changed the subject by opening a
package that he had brought with him
bouquet of flowers
-'There.' he exclaimed. General
Pemberton told me to give you these
flowers with his kind regards.

ANNUAL MEeTING NOUN.
TAIN STATES TELEPHONE
AND TELEGRAPH co.

Denver. Colorado, Feb 1.-THE an
nual meeting of the stockholders OF
The Mountain States Telephone and
Telegraph company was held at the
offices OF the company. in this city.
yesterday. afternoon, and the annual
report of President E. B. Field was
made public after the meeting.
The report is unusual In its breyi-
.ty. Mr. Field however called atten-
ton to the report made at the time
OF the formation of The Mountain
States Company by the merging OF
three Bell companies at which time
he entered very fully into the condi-
tions OF the companies involved.
Sometime later he issued another spe-
cial address to the shareholders. ad-
vising them of the progress made by
the new company. and of its financial
condition. An extended report at this
time, therefore. he said would simply
mean repetition OF what had pre-
viously been Announced. The report
however. seems to show that the CON-
pany is in a healthy condition finan-
cially. and that It is progressive In
the matter OF developing It's territory
which covers the Mountain States
from Canada to the Rio Grande.
The company has earned the seven
per cent dividend promised to the
shareholders. and the balance sheet
would indicate. that the earnings are
not disproportionate to the operating
expenses.
There we're some changes made in
the directorate which is now made up
as follows:
Z. b. Field. f. d. Field. Jr.. Philip
Hamlin. Crawford Hill. A. V. Hunter,
f. s. Kassler and Lawrence C. Phipps.

ham OF Pueblo. and W. s, Mccormick

U. S. INTERVENTION
IN MEXICO DENIED
BY ADMINISTRATION

Washington, Feb. a. Realizing the
danger to American residents in Mex
leo from the, circulation of erroneous
press dispatches telling of proposed
Intervention on the part of the United
States, the state department today is
sued another circular to its diplomatic
and consular representatives in Next
co denying all foolish stories abont
American Intervention and expressing
! the good will and sincerest friendship
of the United States government for
Mexico.
During the Madero revolution the
state department issued similar cir
cular. Since the present trouble as
sumed serious proportions the depart
ment has made every effort to stop
the stories. of Intervention by making
plain its policy towards the sister re-
public.
The American representatives in
Mexico have been instructed to clrcn-
late the note in the press and to use
every means to get the denial before
the populace.
In the note the sincerest friendship
for Mexico and the Mexican people is
expressed with the hope that the
blessings OF peace viii soon return to
them. Mexico's internal political af-
fairs are not point of concern 20
this government according to the note
and the American government &c
mands but the respect and protection
of American life and property
The Mexican government has with
drawn its request to send Mexican
federal soldiers through American ter
ritory from Eagle Pass to Ell Paso.
Texas. 1t appears that law has been
brought to light which prohibits the
sending of troops out of Mexico with
out permission of congress. Apparenr-
ly this statute was unknown during
the Madero revolution or was ig-
nored.
