imposing upon them the same duties
as e They were drawn as jurywo-

INDIANA COAL FIELDS.

First Working Of the Mines Took
Place Over a Century Ago.
Some knowledge Of the coal resources
Of Indiana was obtained as early as
1904, when the public land surveys
showed a number of outcrops. The re-
port of the geological survey Of Indiana
published in 1872 states that in 1871
coal was dug at Fulton. in Perry coun-
ty, and taken by Robert Fulton aboard
the steamer Orleans on its first trip
down the Ohio river. There is good
reason to believe that coal continued to
be mined for local consumption be-
tween 1911 and 1887, when the first at
tempt at commercial mining was made.
but there is no record of the quantity
mined during that interval. The first
commercial coal mining in Indiana, &C.
cording to e. w. Parker Of the United
States geological survey. was done by
the American Camel Coal company at
Cannelton, Perry county, In 1887. The
coal was mined on the bluffs along the
Ohio and Wabash rivers and for the
drst ten years Of the company's opera
lions was loaded directly into boats
for shipment to points down the Ohio.
In 1910 the United States ensus re
ported that the production Of coal in
Indiana in that year was 9.682 tons.
The industry developed slowly until
1856, when It was ascertained that the
block coal mined in the Brazil and
Terre Haute districts made q satisfac-
tory blast furnace fuel in its raw con-
dition. At about that time the con-
struction Of railroads throughout the
state gave an impetus to the coal min
ing industry, which has shown steady
progress except when affected by pc

gravel about eight or ten inches deep

cause of the fact that when it is

be made of sandstone by getting the
rocks in good building material form

put the oil bed underneath and In that
way save all the fine particles to

DISEASES OF POULTRY
GERMS AND PARASITES SHOULD
BE KEPT OUT.
Hens Used for Matching Should Be
Healthy and busted Well With
Verrrin Powder Before Setting
Must Be Kept Clean.

(By JOHN BOWIE Copyright. 1914)
Fowls are liable to be affected by
number of diseases and may also be
infected by various kinds of parasites
which live on the surface of the body
and also in the crop, stomach or in
testines, taking the nourishment
which should be used to put on flesh
or produce eggs and also causing IT.
ritation and Inflammation
The contagious diseases produced by
animal and vegetable germs are the
most important the poultryman has
to consider in trying to keep his birds
healthy. These germs and the para
sites should be kept out preferably by
preventive measures, although there
are cases where medicines may be adj
vantageously given. AS rule, how
ever, it is better to kill sick fowls,
the cost of treatment being greater
than the value of the birds. More
over, the spread of contagious dis
eases is also there.
! To start right, then, set eggs from
a flock which has shown no indica-
tons of contagious disease for at least
a year; avoid putting these eggs in
| packing such as chaff, ETC.. which may
] be musty or moldy; wipe them with a
cloth wet in seventy to eighty per cent
! alcohol and hatch them in a thorough
ly cleansed incubator. The young
chicks should then be free from para
sites and injurious germs Of an kinds,
and to keep them so put them in clean
breeders and allow them to run only
upon ground which has not been used
for fowls for several years.
Should hens be used for Matching
be healthy and dust well with lice
powder before sitting. Their nests
should be perfectly clean, and there
1 should be box of road dust or sift
| ed hard coal ashes under cover where
they can dust themselves. When the
young chicks are taken from the nest
examine carefully for lice. These
! parasites accumulate under the throat
and on the top and back of the head
and if any are found rub little sweet
oil, pure lard or vaseline with the
finger over the parts where the lice
are.
By starting thus a flock may be
raised practically free from disease
germs and parasites, but to keel
germs and parasites from developing
and increasing to a dangerous extent
the hens must be kept clean, the
drinking fountains and feed troughs
washed every day or two with boiling
water. and if any mites are found or
the birds or in their houses, the roosts
and adjoining parts of the walls
should be sprayed with good disin
fectant used in connection with, fresh
ly slaked lime.

weeks before the march to Gettys-

thusiasm as was shown when the boys
we're told that we were to march to
Gettysburg, the thought of the army
getting out of Virginia into free coun-
try being'a very bright one.
"As we came nearer we could hear
the firing and as we marched on we
met A. p Hill, who had just come
up with troops to Seminary Ridge and
had had a lively fight for four hours.
My regiment stood against the en-
envy until we had fired all our am
munition and then fought with dubbed
muskets and bayonets.
