WINTER EGGS.
Hens Must Be Properly Cared for to
30 Producers.


Be Producers.
No hen is going to lay winter eggs
If her system is run down, her mott
not over, and she is made to scratch
her own living. No matter how we'll
We may feed, when we waken up to
the fact that there is no longer feed
on the range, it takes weeks to get
the hen in laying condition, and that
always means unnecessary expense
that could be avoided by feeding early.
A little feed when grass and range are
fairly good will keep birds in condition.
Lack of it will mean twice as much
high priced feed to get them in shape
for laying. There is a tremendous
drain on a fowl during the mott, which
often extends into the late fall. If
the chickens body could show up
through the coat of feathers farmers
would often be ashamed of the skin
and bones condition of their flocks.
To run to the other extreme and
overfeed on corn is about as bad.
Give the chickens a we'll balanced ra-
ton OF a variety of grains if they are
to produce eggs when eggs are high.

PLAN FOR FARMSTEAD.
Home the Important Thing-Put It In

the Right Place.
Some farm homes resemble some
men in having no apparent aim or pur-
pose. They do just what they happen
to do and are just what they happen
to be with no thought for the future.
A we'll planned farmstead is a joy
forever. Don't build in some out of
the way waste place to avoid cutting
up a field. The home is the important
thing. Fields are of secondary conse-
quence. Put the home in the best
place.
Give the farmstead room enough.
Don't get the house too close to the
highway. Allow 100 or 200 feet Of
lawn in front of the house. Leave
space for a good border OF trees at a
suitable distance from the house on
both sides and in the rear, but do not
plant to obstruct the best view. Place
the barns and sheds in the real of the
house and not too close. Plan it out
during the leisure hours Of winter.

Garden as to her mode of living last
summer when she was resting at her
country place near Aberdeen.
"Going to bed early is just as i'm
portant as the other two items, and,
al for porridge, I can assure any one
who is afraid of gaining weight that a
porridge diet will insure her against
gain, but not against loss. You see, l

Scientific Agriculture.

The Hesper farm, one of the best
known ranches of Montana, this sea
son made good it's reputation as the
exemplar of what scientific farming
means when properly practiced.
The owner of this farm, which con-
sists Of GAO acres in Yellowstone coun-
ty. with a highway on all four sides
OF 1t, is regarded as n of the most
successful farmers of modern times.
He keeps an accurate book account of
all receipts and disbursements in CON
nection with the operation Of the
farm, and for the benefit Of farmers
everywhere he makes public his an
nual financial statement, showing
profits and losses, If any, OF every
sort of work undertaken during the
year. These statements are looked
forward to with great interest through
out the state. Here are some Of the
yields reported by Mr.. O'Donnell for
this year:
From sixty acres of Swedish Select
oats he threshed 1856 bushels, which
was an average yield Of 1875 bushels
per acre.
From ten acres of Spring Club
wheat he harvested 744 bushels, or an
average of 74.4 bushels per acre.
His yield of sugar beets will Vi
eighteen tons to the acre this season
and his alfalfa has for years averaged
better than five tons per acre.
He is popularity known as the cal
falfa King" not entirely because Of
his success as an alfalfa raiser, but
because Of his policy of feeding on the
farm every ton which he raises. MI.

farmers r selling their ALTA for

Stung by charges of Col. NJ. NJ. Null
hall of corruption against its members,
the House of Representatives yesterday
launched lobby investigation OF its
own.
On a unanimous demand for vindica-
ton OF its honor and integrity, the House
directed the Rules Committee to report
next Saturday a broad. drastic resolu-
ton for a thorough probe of the Mulhall
charges.
A flood of resolutions were offered in
the House Immediately upon converting
for its first session since the publication
of the Mulhall letters. Resolutions to
have a special select committee of the
House probe every branch of the Null
hall charges were offered.
Demand of many members for imme-
date adoption yesterday of resolution
was defeated after a wrangle of two
hours by vote of s. to g. The reso-
lutions were referred, instead. to the
Rules Committee with instructions to re-
port out an amended resolution on Sat
urday. Its adoption is certain. Chairman
Henry. of the Rules Committee yester-
day sent out a call to all committee
members to meet this morning. lie said
it was probable that a substitute resolu-
ton would be framed. giving the COM
mittee wide scope in conducting the pro-
posed inquiry.
Four Resolutions Proposed.
Four resolutions, each proposing a sep
arate House committee to investigate the
Mulhall charges are before the commit

in the House for consideration of his
resolution. He rose to a matter of high

charge of Mulhall that he was among
those favorable to the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers.

Mr.. Sherley asked that his resolution
be Immediately considered and passed
1t proposed only that his own personal
connection with the charges be investi-
gated by a special committee of seven
members At the request of Representa-
