Few owners of the smaller poultry
plants know what percentage of profit
their flocks yield. Many may know
how much they spend for feed dur
ing the year, and how many eggs the
hens laid within the twelve months,
but further than that they cannot
give any figures Of the cost of pro-
duction or the actual profits from the
sales. Adopt business methods In

Cleaning Up the Garden.

As soon as all fall crops are out Of
the way, clear up the garden gener-
ally, instead of leaving the decaying
vegetables and plants to harbor in
sects. Then the plot of ground can
be given dressing of manure and
plowed so that 1t will be in good
shape for business early next spring.
When you plow the garden, turn
the flock of chickens into 1t for q few
days to pick up the insects which they
will find. They will thus secure lots
of feed and at the same time destroy
enemies Of your next years crops.

floor was Mrs. Thompson in q semi
conscious condition. Doctor Stewart
was summoned and Coroner Weaver
was notified. When the coroner ar

FAMILY FEUD
GETTING SERIOUS

Regent, N. D., April 15y-The fourth
chapter in the celebrated Soren Myhre
family squabble has already opened.
1t seems that Myhre, in company with.
John e. Olson of Alden, made a trip
Tuesday to the home of his former
wife's father, Quick Aase, of the Tee
pee Butte neighborhood, to return two
horses, the possession Of which has
been in controversy. The possession
of these horses formed the bone of
contention in the justice court case
just decided in favor of Mrs. Myhre in
Regent. When Myhre and Olson ar
rived at the Aase home Tuesday, it is
claimed, Quick Aase, the father. Of
Mrs. Myhre, rushed at Myhre armed
with a Ratchet.
Myhre and Olson claim that Aase
threw the Ratchet at Myhre, narrowly
missing his head and they imagine
hitting Mrs. Myhre but not hurting
her. At this juncture of the unpleas-
antness, it is claimed, old mar Aase
secured a winchester shotgun from a
nearby granary and attempted several
times to shoot Myhre, but was pre-
vented from doing so by Mrs. Myhre

RED RIVER WAS
. ON Big RAMPAGE
RIVER RISES FIVE FEET IN FIF-
TEEN HOURS AND ICE SWEEPS
DOWN ON BOATS AT WINNIPEG
TWO BIG STEAMERS ARE
BADLY WRECKED.

The ice in the Red river in North
Dakota is all out and the river itself is
rapidly assuming its natural height.
Down the river at Winnipeg the ice
and high water has been raising havoc
with streams and barges.
The level of the river at Winnipeg
remained almost stationary yesterday
afternoon, but the rise of 1--WE feet dur
ing the previous fifteen hours left very
small space in some places to the top
Of the banks. The river was still full
of swiftly floating ice last night, but
should be perfectly clear some time
today.
Caught between the speeding ice
foes, a. fine big boat was carried along
at a high rate Of speed, and struck the
C. P. r. bridge broadsides. It passed
between the two west piers. The blow
must have been terrific, Judging from
the splinters and, debris on the steel
Orders. Z The high waters left only a
space Of about fifteen feet between the
surface Of the river and the floor of
the bridge, so that there was no es-
cape for the boat. Her entire upper
decks were carried away with a
mighty crashing and rending of wood,
and what was left Of her was further
wrecked when the boat was battered
against the piers Of the Louise bridge.
Later in the day the Vessel-a total
wreCK-WaS swept owe the 81. An
drew's dam.
It was inky black at ? o'clock in the
morning when the van Of the ice field
bore down on the fEtilla of boats and
, barges moored at the %shipyard of the
Lake Winnipeg Navigation Co, direct
, ly opposite George street, along the
st, BonifaCe shore. Rivermen who
were on The watch say the ice, which
had got a clear course from Norwood
bridge, was running wildly, and when
1t struck the boats it carried all but
one barge away.
= Boats Badly Wrecked.
The passenger steamers Alberta and
Bonitoba were badly wrecked during
the dark hours yesterday morning
when the ice in the Red river ran wild,
the steel steamer RosamOnd Billet
was swept from it's mornings and car
ried 300 yards down stream, when it
was ~miraculously saved and a new
190-foot barge under construction for
the Lake Winnipeg Shipping Co. was
' swept down stream, and Is now wedg-
ed tightly against the piers Of the c.
p. r. bridge.

darkness, and there was wild excite
ment when inch~and a quarter steel
cables and three and four inch ropes,
holding the boats to shore. parted.
The ROsamond Billet was only saved
by heroic and clever work on the part
Of Chief Engineer Rennie, who was
aboard her.
The piers Of the new C.. P. r. bridge
at KildOnan were reported by the chief
engineer of the company to be still
standing, and the piers of the new
bridge for the Elm Park Co. withstood
the shock Of the ice foes.
The two passenger steamers wreck
ed were the only one remaining in
Winnipeg. the steamer Winnitoga,
companion ship of the Bonitoba, hav-
ing been destroyed by fire last fall.
There will be no moonlight trips this
summer.
The steamer Alberta was owned by
the Winnipeg Navigation Co, and was
valued at $4,000. In 1908 it was
brought all the way from Edmonton to
Winnipeg Via the saskatchewan river
and Lake Winnipeg. -
A gang of men under Captain Isher-
wood, who took charge of the Alberta
this year, has been working for a
month fitting her up for the opening
Of ethe season. Three of this gang
were carpenters and five of them Calk-
erS.
All that was left Of Raynor's motor
boat garage near Norwood bridge was
! carried out by the ice during the night,
as was also the houseboat Home Rule,
which turned turtle and was carried
| out to the center Of the river. The
! steps of the motor BOAT club were
swept out and the heavy steel tracks
used for running launches down to the
water were carried bodily away.
Heavy floats were pushed high upon
the banks as though they had been
cockleShells. -.
Norwood Bridge TrembIed.
The ice run started in real earnest
about 1870 under spectacular condi-
tons. Time and again Norwood bridge
trembled with the shock caused by the
terrific impact of huge cakes of ice.
Rivermen who were on the boats
which were swept out say the ice
descended upon them in a solid mass,
| against which nothing could hold.
The passing of the ice this year has
been the most disastrous in the his
tory of the city. That many small
lighthouses were wrecked in the
mighty chaos of grinding ice is shown
by the great amount Of wreckage that
passed under Louise bridge during the
morning. Three or four boats went
past turned completely upside down.
The wreckage of the steamer Alder
Ia is streWn all over the steel Orders
| of the c, p. r, bridge, and 1T clearly

Alberta Swept to Ruin.
The Alberta is a complete wreck,
not even her boilers being worth the
saving. She had a capacity of 1000
passengers.
She passed M~fddIechurch, eight
miles down the river at Q O'Clock and
was reported to be in a bad state oi
demolition at that time. When she
crashed over the spiilway, the wreck
was completed. For almost the entire
length of the boats last Journey, SHE
