Superior Court.

Last We0neSOay grand anu IFld jury term of the Superior Court wa.
 held in Klnyman. Judge Carl G. KrooH
 presiding. The grand jury was em
 paneled and inquired into several mat
 ters. among them being the reported
 gambling cases from Chloride. John
 L. Riggs of that place was summoned
 into court and appeared before the jury. Mr. Riggs hao reported to the
 governor that gambling was carried
 on wide open in Chloride, but when he
 came before the lnquisitorial body he
 was unable to verify the report. He stated that it was generally known in
 Chloride that gambling was carried on there, but as he never went into the saloons he had no personal knowledge of the fact. Not being able to get evidence of the fact that gam bling was so carried on the charge against certain saloon keepers was ignored. The grand jury investigated various matters that had to do with the county government and after investigation re- ported to the court that all officers should be given clean bill of health. In fact the officers were commended for the way in which they conducted their various offices.
 Neil Broaded was brought into court and pleaded guilty to the charge of as- sault to kill. He will be sentenced thls afternoon. It will be remember ed that Broaded shot Joe Marks and James Reyes, a few months ago, Reyes recovering. but Marks is still in bad shape. The shooting was the result of a gambling game in the Depot Saloon, at Kingman.
 Yesterday jury was empaneled to try the cause of the State against Will liam Onson. Onson two weeks ago cut Dan Haskin with a pocket knife, the wound being in the neck, and it was a miracle that he escaped death. Last night the jury brought in a yer dict of assault with deadly weapon. Opson will be sentenced Monday next. The man IS said to be dangerous fel- low to be at large and the jury let him off lightly. He was defended by J. A. Ellis, and it is to Mr. Ellis manage ment of the defense that he owes the light verdict.
 The cause of the State against Mack | Tokespeta was dismissed on demurrer of the defense to the jurisdiction Of the court. Tokespeta hurglarized a room at Valentine, Indian School re- serve east of Hack kberry. Tokespeta was later bound over to the U. S court by U. s. Com nissioner Smith.
 Genivieve Hall Sweeney was grant. ed decree of divorce from William Sweeney at this term of court.

Big Tax Collections.

Last Saturday the Atchison. Topeka x Santa Fe railroad com pany paid into the county treasury more than 9O,OOOS in taxes. All the big mining compan- ies have paid their taxes, amounting to close to l5O,OOOS. With the pay ment of these large sums and the pay. ment of taxes by the small taxpayers only small percentage of the total tax of the county will become delin. auent. During the past three years the taxes of Mohave county have been paid very close, only a few hundred dollars going delinquent out of a total of nearly 200,O00S. As a result of the big tax collections Treasurer Devine is wearing a broad smile these days.

termed normal supply of stored
eggs to reckon with in the winter
and this "normal" supply will not be
great enough to demoralize our mar
ket even though a large proportion
of them be marketed as "fresh ranch"
eggs.
Impelled by a suicidal greed the
egg kings stored immense quantities
of eggs last spring and summer, pay
ing us less for them than ever before.
Thousands of cases of these eggs came
out of storage in rotten condition,
menace to the public health. These
eggs should have been conhscated by
the public authorities and doubtless
would have been promptly nabbed If
still owned by us original producing
fellows. AS it was the owners were
allowed to sell them for what they
would bring, demoraiizing the mar
ket for honest healthy eggs and put
ting lots Of hard working egg ranchers
out of business. The egg ranchers,
however, stood for it all as though
they liked it. They kicked inst about
as hard as a caterpillar does when
stepped on. While they can't be
awarded a medal for courage perhaps
their patience has been deemed worthy
of reward; anyway some economic
principles, long supposed to be sus-
pended in their opera ton, seem sud-
denly to have got to work again IN
their behalf. Over Production and

behold firmly upon the prone ches
of the redoubtable G. S. T., -ahem
upon the chest OF our giant adversary
stands our old friend. SO long missing
from the fray, the Law of Supply anc
Demand. "Twenty cents dozen
gurgles the giant plaintively
"Twenty-two cents I think you said
remarks our little champion, his
rapier point tickling the fat throat
suggestively. Twenty two, o.
course" says the giant, blubbering

bugaboo of the poultry business Ii
the target for many good swift kicks
as his victims of the past few years
file past him.
Sounds like pipe, does it? Well,
it isn't not the least bit, but one OF
the truest little parallels you ever
heard. Strangely enough, the luck
has turned in favor of the egg rancher,
though he deserves no credit for 1T.
Thousands of producers have for years
allowed little band of dozen or sc
of middlemen to make the price on
their commodity and have not made
nearly SO good fight as rabbit puts
up when cornered by a bull dog.
Now, most unexpectedly, the work
ing of an economic law releases them
from the strangle hold upon their
throat.
1t simply amounts to this: The
storage men who have demoralized
the business of egg producing for
the past two, if not three years,
have had a heavy dose of their own
medicine. Last year everybody con-
nected with the business lost money
but the cold storage men whose greed
was the cause of the trouble lost
more than the ranchers themselves.
We will never know all the horrible
truth, but without doubt nearly one
half of the eggs stored last year
forced from the producers at unprof
liable prices, mind you-were sold
during the winter months at less than
the price paid for them in the spring
months. Egg ranchers will remem-
Der that the price was forced down
and down last spring to the lowest
mark ever known and kept down away
into the summer-mid June, to be
exact. We poor devils who produced
the eggs lost lots of money but the
storage barons lost good deal more
than we did. Incidentally they learn
ed that not all eggs are fit to store at
any time. while no eggs can be stored
during hot weather. 1t cost them
money to learn these facts and it has
also cost them their former complete
control of the market. Not half as
many eggs were stored this spring as
last and still fewer will be stored
next year. In short: From now on
we will have but what may well be

This is accessible to the fowls all
the time in addition to the night and
morning feeds of grain. The
"Meersch" mixture can be fed in
dry mash as we'll as moist, but must
be mixed in carefully. This scheme
of feeding will make June Matched
pullets lay lots of winter eggs, if it is
followed without neglect or serious
accident; but it must be understood
that these pullets will not be worth
much as breeding birds.

be dairy salt carefully mixed in. For
the hard grain an equal quantity of
wheat, oats and cracked corn makes
a fine growing ration. If they do not
take kindly to the oats at first you
can teach them to eat it in few days
by withholding the other grains.
When five months old use the
"Meersch formula: Bone meal two
pounds; blood meal three pounds !;
mustard two pounds; Venetian red
(iron) one pound; sulphur one.half
pound; powdered saltpetre one-half
POUND. Mix thoroughly and feed one

hens daily in their mash. Finally
when the pullets have made sufficient
development for laying they may be
hurried little more in getting to
work by giving them few feeds of
beef liver only half cooked-so as to
be in sort of slippery state. Two or
three feeds of this stuff, three days
apart, has generally proven very
effective.
When laying has begun and the
winter rains we'll underway it may be
found advisable to feed dry mash, a
great many experienced poultry
raisers believing that pullets are more
susceptible to colds when fed the
moist mash in winter. A good,
strong and we'll balanced dry mash
for proper feeding is as follows:

Within the past week several Rancl
readers have asked about the pos
sibilities of June Matched pulIets a
winter layers cannot conscientious
ly advise any one to go to Matching
at this late date, as there are too
many Ifs" involved in the problem
of making bunch of June hatchec
pullets pay good profit. The follow
ing article on the care of late Matched
fowls first appeared in this paper
about year ago and is reprinted by
request:
To induce late Matched pullets tc
reach laying maturity as early as pos.
sible they must be very carefully
looked after in other respects besides
feeding. One or two decided changes
in temperature, either way, while the
chicks are small will set them back
seriously in their growth. They
must be kept very clean and in every
way comfortable; must have plenty
of clean and fresh drinking water;
also plenty of chick charcoal from the
start. If they have not grass run
plenty of green food must be furnish
ed them. When this is not obtained
give them leafy alfalfa hay. 1t will
do for while. When four days old
begin feeding the chicks one daily
feed of very hard boiled (three hours)
eggs, run through a food chopper
shells and all, and mixed with one
half the quantity of rolled oats. Give
them what they will eat of it but
don't leave any laying around. Be
particularly careful to take plenty of
time and make sure that all of them
get their share. Don't dump it down
and go away. You can afford to feed
them the eggs until two weeks old at
least-and three weeks is better-when
ground raw meat and bone combined
can be fed. Beef heads-to be had
from any slaughter house at low
price-are good for this purpose or
the green bone and meat trimmings
to be had at the butcher shop can be
mixed together.
Start the young chicks on chick
food and when ten days old mix in
some cracked wheat. A little later
add cracked corn to the ration. At
-vom three to four weeks wheat,
hacked corn and steel cut oats make
the best ration. Have bran, in troughs
or hoppers, on hand all the time from
the beginning. At ten days beign
strengthening this gradually adding
shorts, middlings and feed meal. At
three weeks begin adding bone meal
and proteina until each form a tenth
of this dry feed.
| do not advise use of moist mash
until six weeks old. This may be
made of bran, shorts, oat middlings
and feed meal, equal parts; meat
scraps, bone meal and proteina, one
half of one part each; fine charcoal
one-fourth part, and two per cent
