A very pleasant function styled a

immense fun to those present. The

NEGRO PROGRESS IN FIFTY
YEARS.

During the past fifty years there
has been a rapid Increase in the
wealth of the Negroes of the South.
This increase has been especially
marked in the past ten years, during
which time the value Of the domestic
animals which they own Increased
from SS5,216,9S7 to $|177.273,7S5, or
.1O7 per cent; poultry from S3,7SS,7 1872
to $5,113, 756, or So per cent; imple-
ments and machinery from S1S,5S6,-
225 to $367,S31, AIS, or SO per cent;
land and buildings from S69,636,420
to $273,5 sol $50, or 293 per cent. From
1900 to 1910 the total value of farm
property owned by the colored farm
ers of the South increased from S177,-
4O4,6SS to 1892, SOS, 21S, or 1T per
cent.
In 1863, the total wealth OF the Ne
groes of this country was about 500,
000,0 200. Now the total wealth is
over 500, 000, 1000. No other enamel
pated people have made so great a
progress in so short a time. The Rus
sian serfs were emancipated in 1861
Fifty years after, it was found thai
$4,000, 900 of them had accumulated
about $5O0,0OO,O0 worth of property
or about $36 per capita, an average
of 5000 per family. Fifty years after
their emancipation only about 80 pei
cent of the Russian peasants were able
to read and write. After fifty years
Of freedom the ten million Negroes ir
the United States have accumulated
over $500, 100000 worth of property
or about $40 per capita. which is ar
average of $3.50 per family. After

Munsex,s Statement.

Mr.. Munsey, publisher Of a maya
zine and a chain Of newspapers in
the East, and a big Bull Moose high
up in the council of the National Pro-
gressive party, is quoted as having
made the following statement:
THE name Republican has not been
accepted in the South in a half cen
fury, and would not be accepted in a
half century to come. The prejudice
there is too deep-rooted-prejudice
both because Of the memories of the
Civil War, and because since the val
the party has failed to get a footing
in the Southern states as a white
mans party. Nc party can live and
be a useful political instrument in
the South except it be a white mans
party"
There is no need of alarm we Mr..
Munsey's views; he is just one man,
and a very little mar at that. No
political party can succeed in this
country that sets out to bar the ir
repressable black. The Democratic
party tried it, but there was nothing
doing until Mr.. Woodrow Wilson lei

litical success, and on the other hand

STAPLE FOOD FOR CHICKENS
Hens Cannot Give Best Results When
Fed Grain Alone-Fowls De-
mand Variety OF Feed.

Grain is the staple food for poultry,
and will be used for that purpose as
long as fowls are kept on farms, but
hens cannot give good results on grain
alone. 1t is beneficial to them and will
be at all times relished but the de-
mands of the hens are such as to call
for a variety. In the shells or eggs
as well as their composition are sew
eral forms of mineral matter and nitro
gen, which can only be partially OBJ
tanned from grain.
Even grains vary in composition,
and when fowls are fed on one kind
for a long time they will begin to re-
fuse it, as they may be oversupplied
with the elements Of the food partaken
and lack the elements that are best
supplied from some other source. For
this reason they will accept change
of food. which is of itself an evidence
that the best results from hens car
only be obtained by a variety Of food
Corn and wheat may be used as food
with advantage, but must be given as
a portion of the ration and not made
exclusive articles of diet,

CARING FOR LITTLE CHICKS
First Duty Is to Provide Suitable Coop
for Hen and Brood-TWo Methods
of Feeding.

During the Matching, II you are
will allow the instinct Of the hen to
do her work. 1t may be well to quiet
ly reach under the hen and remove
such egg shells as can be taken out
without disturbing her, but nothing
further should be attempted.
The first duty is to provide a coop
for the hen and brood. No matter
what kind of coop, from barrel
laid down to the most improved pat
ented article, Is used. See that it is
clean and the bottom covered with
find sand, or II the weather be really
cold with oat chaff or short fine hay
When the chickens arc twenty-four
hours old they are ready to be re-
moved to their new quarters, Up to
this time, writes M. e, Scully Of I'LL
nos in the Prairie Farmer, they
should have received no food, but they
are now ready for their first meal
Give them water to drink In vessel
into which they cannot get their
bodies. A tin vegetable can with
small holes punched around the bot.
tom and placed in deep saucer will
answer admirably. Whatever their
first food may be. give them only a
small quantity. The best rule for
feeding Is little and often"
Two distinct methods Of feeding
have their special advocates, the wet,
that Is, ground feed moistened with
milk or water; and the dry. | find
the latter method the more satisfac-
tory. feed cracked wheat, corn and
oatmeal.
Keep the chicks healthy and grow
ing right from the start. Keep them
dry and warm. Give them plenty Of
grit and pure water. II in a brooder
scatter food in chaIf and let them get
exercise by scratching. The first
three weeks are the most critical time .
after that, if kept free from lice, they
will do well.

Feed During Noting.

The melting OF fowls is a natural
process and not a disease and no
medical treatment is necessary or de-
sirable. Feed melting fowls just as
you would feed them at any other
time, only remember that melting is
done during hot weather, and less car.
bonaceous food should be given than
when the weather is cool. Oats. wheat.
cut clover or alfalfa or any leguminous
seeds may be used more because the
weather is warm than that fowls are
melting. Any sort OF green food 10
good 80 are beets. turnips. bulbs or
tubers OF any sort that they will eat.
They should have little corn or other
heat.producing food.
