SEEKING HOUSE sPEAKERsHIP.

Representative T. G. Bowie of Ashe
is strongly persuaded that he will lbe
the next speaker of the House of
North Carolina. The fact that he is
considered the most ultra of the con-
servatives, does not brighten him.
The returns from the western part of
the state show something of the same
thing.
Mr.. Bowie's friends do not think it
is E. R. Wooten against the field, but
that it is the field against Bowie. The
fact that he was against nearly all the
new things" last year is not expected
to hurt him. He opposed the special
session, the amendments, the Justice
freight act and various other measures
and his hackers think that subsequent
events have shown him wise and far
seeing. The Justice act was almost
rewritten b va commission of which
Mr.. Justices father was head. Bowie's
hackers say, the amendments were
beaten, the special sessions mission
failed an dthe only thing left is a con-
troversy between big democrats as to
whether the state is running in debt
or paying as it goes.
II am going to be elected, think,
Mr.. Bowie said today. 81 believe the
west is entitled to it,"

2 witness, Judge E. B. Cline, presid-
ing, called the magistrate before him

.tions which were conducted by the
last two grand juries,-as a result of
which the court asked for the resigna-
tion of the magistrate. At this time

BEES.

When the hives are well distributed
In a certain space their inmates may
be more easily handled. 1t seems to
improve the disposition. especially II
there are some trees or shrubs about
it. Robbing is not prevalent either.
and the absence Of that always helps
to make bees better natured.
A good fall flow Of honey is not an
unmixed good. for careful trials have
shown that there Is a superabundance
Of pollen grains in this honey which
does not make it the most desirable
for winter stores. and the presence Of
the pollen has a tendency to bring on
dysentery with the bees. especially II
they are wintered in the cellar without
an occasional cleansing fight. which
the outdoor winter protected bees
have. This is mighty good argument

MEXICAN FEDERAL ARMY May
RUSH ACROSS AMERICAN BORDER
Wounded Cry for Sdfety---RlYer Edge IS Lined
With Wounded Seeking Safety.

Presidio, Tex, Jan. 2.-The northern
division of the federal army at OH.
naga, Mexico, with it's II generals and
1000 soldiers after merciless three
days attack by General Ortega's 5000
rebels, appear on the verge of fleeing
in disorder across the river into the
United States.
1t is believed the battle. attended by
the most horrifying scenes Of dead and
wounded, has but one ending in store,
the fight of the whole federal army
to American soil. With deserters al
ready appearing in numbers, Major
McNames, commanding the border
patrol, is making plans in anticipation
of a federal fight.
A careful estimate places the
wounded at 1000. Most of the wound
ed were left on the battlefield. Scores
of federal deserters who crossed the
river were disarmed and forced back
to the Mexican side.
1t is impossible to learn the number
of dead, but it is believed to be large.
It is believed many died from lack of
medical attention.
Shots reached the American side but
no damage was done. Should all the
Federals cross into the United States
they will be disarmed but might be
permitted to remain on grounds Of
humanity after being placed under
temporary arrest.

POULTRY NOTES.

The weather has been very favor
able for the development of late-hatch-
ed pullets. They should be in prime
condition now and ready to lay abun-
dainty if properly fed.
Scratch feed consisting of cracked
corn, wheat, and oats should be fed in
the litter at least twice day either
mixed in about equal proportion or in
rotation, feeding oats in the morning,
cracked corn at noon, and wheat at
night.
With this grain ration, a mash
should be fed. The dry form is most
generally fed now, because is saves
labor and furnishes a constant supply
of food. Thus, the less lively and
more timid get their share.
Corn meal, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings, and finely ground oats are suit
able ingredients for dry mash for
laying hens. Any one of these in
gradients may be omitted without SER
ously affecting either the health or
the egg yield, though it is an excel
lent plan to retain the wheat bran on
account of it's laxative qualities. These
ground grains may be mixed in about
equal proportion by weight. Add also,
unless fed separately, finely ground
alfalfa or clover, a level teaspoonful
of salt to each dry quart Of mash, and
for the best egg yield 20 to rs per
cent of beef scraps and bone meal in
the proportion of per cent.
Feed your mash in a hopper that
does not waste it. If you do not have
such, use shallow box, Is to IS inches

that perhaps the last skating day fo-

time and that he had part in the fun.
1t was an inspiring sight to see both
sides of the river lined with eager
spectators, big and little watching the
contests. It was more inspiring
sight to see all of that eager throng
streaming up the ice to ChautauQua
Park and back again. Every stroke of
the skates and every breath of that
pure air was adding vigor and health
to the hundreds of people who made
up the throng.
Valley City should take the lead Of
progressive cities In North Dakota
and erect municipal skating rink
where everybody could sakte regard
less of the weather We should have
a place for skating, for ice hockey, and
for curling and other sports.

such a place? Someone should start
