OLD SOLDIERS OFFENDED
At His Treatment of General Law,
Editor OF the Barlow Courier
Informant

Jacksonville, Sept. 2.-The fol-
lowing appeared in the Metropolis
oi yesterday evening: In political
circles it is rumored that Congress
man Stephen NJ. Sparkman, OF Tam
pa, chairman of the rivers and har-
bors committee, will again have OPP
position when the official starter
announces another congressional
handicap. The belief, though, is
that the dean of the Florida delega-
tion, owing to his long term of SER
vice, ani the chairmanship of the
powerful committee, will be able to
hold his own.
Something of a storm is brewing
in South Florida, because of treat
ment alleged to have been accorded
to Gen. E. NJ. Law, editor of the
Barlow Courier-Informant, and as
pirant for the Barlow postmaster
ship, by Col. Sparkman.
Gen. Law, who is the highest rank
ling officer OF the Confederate army
living today, is said TO have had the
postmastership ''cinched' until Col.
Sparkman filed certain charges
against him, which the generals
| friends declare to be unjust. They
argue that Col. Sparkman, having
been opposed by Gen. Law, had the
privilege of opposing the aged sol
ldier-journalist. but that he should
not have gone to the extent of filing
such alleged charges against him.
Accordingly, some of the generals
: friends in various counties of the
/ district. are trying to bring out a
candidate who will make it interest
! ing for Uncle Steve" who is pur-
suing the even tenor of his way, and
whose friends declare that he will
remain in the House until he gets
lired and quits.

of the most notable sermons of this
inspired man occur these lines, lines
that have been widely quoted and
copied:
Oh, do not pray for easy lives,
pray to be stronger men;
Do not pray for tasks equal to
your courage, pray courage
equal to your task
These words are worthy of our
profound reflection-'pray to be
stronger nen.'
''All our lives-and for many CEN
turies past-we have been taught to
pray, to plead, to whine and groyel
at the feet OF an all-powerful Ruler
of the universe and beg exemption
from effort.
Lead Us not into temptation;
save US. from everything that requir-
es strength 10 mbat-this has
been the race cry. And here comes
a man with sufficient insight TO re-
verse this hypnotic device to keep
man in subsection, and he says: DO
not pray for weakness. but pray for
strength and courage

FRENCHMAN'S FOOLHARDY FEAT
AVIATOR DEATH ATMOSPHERIC
in


Juyisay, France, Sept. "A
French aviator named Pegoud yes
terday ''looped the loop while fly
ing at height OF 800 feet in his
aeroplane.. He afterward descended
without injury.
Pegoud recently caused a sensa-
tion by dropping safely from an
aeroplane with a parachute. He an
nounced before leaving the ground
yesterday that he intended 10 turn a
sCmersault in the air with his aero
plane and his movements were fol-
lowed closely by a large body of OBJ
servers.
When he reached a height of about
% 600 feet hes turned the nose OF his
machine straight toward the earth
and dartei downward with his motor
working at full power. After plung-
ing about l 200 feet with frightful
velocity he changed the position of
his rudder and caused the aeroplane
to turn a complete verticle circle.
The machine then glided down in a
huge spiral and alighted gently on
the ground.

SPR0UTED GRAIN FOR FOWLS
Green Food May Also Be Supplied In
Form Of Any Surplus Supply o.
Vegetables on Hand.

Where 1t is possible a winter crop
should be planted to furnish green
food for the fowls. It does not take q
large area to furnish green food for
the fowls, and usually plenty Of space
may be found for this purpose. But
where one has only city lot, and
green crop Is out of the question, ar
rangements should be made to sprout
oats, rye, wheat or barley. II no other
space 10 available a box of soil will
sufRce. The box may be filled with
rich garden loan If the seeds are to
remain long enough for the plants to
grow. II the grain is to be fed as
soon as the seed sprouts box Of sand
10 suflcient. The box may be set In
cellar or in the kitchen near the stove
in very cold weather
Green food may also be supplied in
the form Of any surplus vegetables
that you may happen to have on hand
The best plan for feeding them Is to
place Q nail in the houses on the wall
Just high enough so that the hens will
be compelled to jump little to reach
It. Then ts'-e a beet or any other veg
etabies that you desire to feed and
stick them on the nails. 1t Is a handy
little arrangement, and compels the
fowls to exercise for their food.

KEEPING BROOD SOW HEALTHY
Preferable to Keep Animal as Near
Grass or Vegetable Diet as Pos
sibie--Roots Urged.

(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
Grass and vegetable matter are the
most natural foods for pigs, although
they will eat and can digest great
variety of things. The nearer SOW
can be kept to a grass or vegetable
diet the healthier she will be, and this
system is preferable to dry, rich foods
consisting mainly of grain, barley or
other meals.
Bran is most useful when grass Is
not available, but where it Is not pos
sible to give sows grass run, lucerne,
tares and other green forage crops can
sometimes be substituted.
Roots, except that mangels must not
be given at all freely as narrowing ap-
proaches or the pigs are almost GER
tain to be born dead, are useful and
where there Is large garden 1t will
provide a great deal Of vegetable stuff
that can be advantageously employed
for inpig sows-stuff, too, that would
be otherwise wasted. Large quantities
Of dry grain, and especially corn and
barley, must be avoided as too heat
ing; and hotel waste, butchers offal.
slaughterhouse refuse--indeed animal
matter in any form--are also bad, and
may, 1t is said be an exciting cause
Of cannibalism.
When at grass or getting green
forage or garden stuff, a few old beans
or some dry corn may be given once
or twice week.
The food for the in-pig SOW for the
last week or SO of her time should
be as nearly as possible that on which
she will be fed for three or four weeks
after she is farrowed. A Well-known
breeder says:
1--WE have ceased to give barley or
other meal to our sucking sows until
the pigs are at least a month old. Our
newly tarrowed sows are fed sharps,
or what IL locally termed thirds, mid
dlings, etc, and varying amount Of
bran, determined By the richness OF
the sharps, the number of the litter
end the age of the sow, also condi-
ton" His recommendation for feed
ing the in-pig SOW Is: Vegetable food,
with little dry grass. beans, peas or
corn until within week of farrow-
ing"

The system of imparting this vibra-

POULTRY RELISH SKIM MILK
One Of Very Best of Foods for Grow
Ing Chicks, Keeping Digestion
In Good Order.
By r. @. WEATHERSTONE.)

By r. q. WEATHERsTONE)
Very few people understand the
value Of skim milk as food for poul-
try. They relish it and 1t is very good
for them, either sweet or sour or but
termilk. II 1t is not too cold.
Milk takes the place of meat scraps
to . certain extent. In fact. the feed
ing of meat can he put down one
fourth when the fowls have all the
skim milk they can drink, and the re-
suits obtained will be the same. Milk
is fine to feed laying hens and will
materially increase the egg yield.
1t is one OF the very best of foods
for the growing chicks, keeping their
digestion in good order and Fastening
their growth, as It contains the ele-
ments necessary for their develop
mspt.
Where milk is fed regularly and
te&spoonful each of ginger and soda
added to each gallon every third or
fourth day. there will be no cholera
or other bowel troubles. Stir the mix
ture until thoroughly dissolved before
feeding. This is very easily prepared
and will keep their digestive organs
toned and sweetened
When fattening fowls, skim milk
should be used to mix the mash. They
like 1t better and in this way are In.
duced to eat just AS much more, as
the milk while serving as moisture to
wet the mash Is also hearty food.
The food for young ducks should
be mixed with milk and curds made
from sour milk are indispensable for
young turkeys.
Remen Der that milk will not take
the place OF water, as 1t so soon turns
to solid food In the crop. Keep
water before the chickens the same as
ever. no matter how much milk they
may have.
On every farm there IL more or less
milk for feeding and 1t will pay to
see that the chickens get their share
OF It,

UnfavorabIe Soils.

Clay soils are uniavorable to Vege'
tation because the soil Is too close ana
adhesive to allow the free passage or
air or water to the roots Of the plants
1t also obstructs the expansion of the
tibers OF the roots. Sandy soils are
unfavoravle because they consist OF
particles that have too little adhesion
to each other. They do not retain
sufficient moisture for the nourish-
ment of the plants. They allow too
much solar heat to pass to the roots.
Chalk soils are unfavorable because
they do not absorb the solar heat and
are, therefore, cold to the roots of the
plants.
