Two of the young men serving in the guardianship of the burned dis trict received slight flesh wounds last night in camp on the grounds of the Park hotel, when a pistol in the hands of one was discharged. The bullet went through the hand of one, and through the fleshy part of tha leg above the knee of the other sol dier.

COMMITTEE WILL FINISH ITS WORK OF PUBLIC SUPPLY
 TODAY AND TOMORROW.
MUCH CLOTHING IS RECEIVED
Only Those Actually in Need and Who Food and Clothing Will Sup ply, Will Receive Attention After Today at Relief Headquarters.

The work of the relief committees Is fast nearing an end.
 Yesterday the subscriptions- ra- ceiyed dwinded down to s126. This included subscription of $1G0 from the Armour company.
 The committee finds that it's funds are fast diminishing, but happily also Ii finds that the relief field has been very well covered
 Mr. McGrath of the Red Cross is interested now in the disbursement of the commissary and the disburse- ment of the clothing, which is the closing feature of the relief work.
 Yesterday the committee received some sple9did donations of clothing, which, while there is not a great de- mand for this sort of help just now, will no doubt be sorely needed with the first frosty morning.
 Treasurer Eisele, James Anderson. Sam Williamson and MT. McGrath were busy last night going over the detail of their work which is nsces- sary to be covered in he report to the Red Cross society and which Mir. McCirath represents.
 Mayor McClendon and Messrs. Waters and Cooper continued to work with the committee yesterday, and there were many cases passed on, but for the most part there were second visits, or were made by par ties who are in actual want, but who were not fire sufferers.
 These latter furnished problem for the committee, which was not. answered readily, but the committee did not split hairs to the extent of seeing any genuinely worthy afflicted person leave the quarters without assistance in some form.
 The eommissary department Is what has aroused the demand for foodstuffs. and while much of this demand comes from negroes who arg willing enough beggers, there are many cases of persons who are af- flicted. who live in an undefinable manner, and who when they appeal, their afflictions, and their hope for recovery of health if they can only get along here until they have finished treatment, they usually get some little assistance from the

WHICH ARE BETTER LAYERS7
PouItrymen Arc Debating Whether
Hen or Pullet Is Capable Of Great
est Egg Production.

No matter how successful keepers
become with poultry, they are trying
at all times to find how they may in
crease their profits. To increase their
profits means to increase egg produc-
ton. Poultrymen are now debating
whether hen or pullet is capable of
the greatest egg production. There is
good argument on both sides. Some
claim that while hens lay less than
pullets, they lay larger and heavier
eggs and because Of the fact the eggs
command a better price than those
laid by pullets. This Is true. but in
many sections of the United States,
eggs are sold without grading and
consequently the small egg Is able
to command as good a price as the
larger ones. Others are in favor of
pullets because they lay eggs which
are claimed TO possess better flavor

you do you are as liable to pick out
large potatoes from a small, undevel-

While the vines are in full bloom

CITY PEOPLE BUYING FARMS

He did not care for the cost as

farm. The man was not living who
could make money on the enormous
overcapitalization. Many farmers
make the same mistake on a smaller
scale. They will pay too much for

ways invest more money In their
business than its limit Of expansion
would reasonably allow. And then

than those laid by hens. No one
disputes the fact that the pullets lay
more eggs than hens. but their eggs
are never 30 large.
Leghorn pullets commence to lay
when about six months of age, while
many of them start at five months.
Therefore, it is a very easy matter to
raise pullets SO that they will be lay
ing the winter after they are Matched.
Pullet eggs do not hatch as we'll as
those of hens. Not only that, but the
chicks do not seem nearly so strong
and lively as those Matched from
hens eggs. For this reason, the writer
would advise pullets for market eggs
and hens for breeders. The question
Of which is the better depends upon
whether you are using your eggs for
market or for breeding purpose.-Bet-
