of Their Marriage.

OF Their Marriage
Just as the autumHal season had
turned the leaves of trees from
green to red and brown; just when
the heat of summer had given place
to the cooler days of fall; just
when the cruel war had ceased and
the few remaining brave and noble
men had returned to their homes
aud loved ones, wedding bells sent
forth their sweetest sound and
called the many friends to witness
the contamination of vows plight
ed and held sacred prior to the go.

youth, between Elizabeth Rice aud
Charles A. Taliaferro. This event
brought sadness to many young
men, for Miss Rice was an exceed
ingly popular young lady. and
many suitors envied the groom

the garden of girls.
Fifty years have passed since
then and many changes have taken
place-adversity, prosperity, sick
ness, health, anxiety and even the
grim reaper of death, have enter
ed the home-but each only bound
closer these two loving hearts and
made life sweeter for its entrance
into it.
With their loving children and
grand children surrounding them,
Mr.. and Mrs. Taliaterro, on Sat
urdaY evening. celebrated their
golden wedding. Their friends
are numbered by the Inhabitants
of town and country, and invita-
tions were received and accepted
both near and far.
The illuminations from many
japanese lanterns surrounding the
home gave proof that the same
hearty welcome proverbiaI with
the TaIiaferro home awaited each
guest; and when the appointed
hour arrived the spacious rooms
were well flied.
The decorations at once attract

there been more beautiful arrage

EXPLOSION OF LAMP SETS
FIRE; HOUSE IS GUTTED

Fire starting, Il Is thought from
the explosion Of a kerosene lamp,
early this morning gutted the house
OF Mr and Mrs. Clarence Kearney az
ll02 West Alta street. The principal
damage done was to the furniture as
the flames swept through every
room. The damage to the house. it
is estimated, will not exceed $3.50,
while the furniture damage viii
probably amount to more than twice
that amount. Mr Kearney carried
$500 insurance on his house and S4OO
on his furniture.
The fire broke out about 1890 and
thinking they could put it out with
the garden hose, the family did not
turn in the alarm until after /. When
the department arrived, flames were
issuing from all rooms and a thor
ough drenching was necessary to
drown out the flames.
Mr.. Kearney states that he left a
lamp burning on the dining room ta-
BILE and presumes that it must have
exploded.
Fire Chief Ringold regrets that the
alarm was not turned in at the dis
covery of the fire, feeling sure the
loss could have been confined to a
small amount. 1t is perfectly righ;
to fight the flames with a garden
hose, he states. but no time should
be wasted in summoning the firemep.

ITALIAN DECLARES HE WILL
RIDE SHARKEY At ROUNDUP

Old Sharkey, the Roundup bull,
will do well to be on guard for there
is a gentleman here who says he is
going to ride him al the Roundup and
do the job to the finish. His name is
Tony Touch, a diminutive Italian who
has been Iqboring in a section gang
at Gibbon
Tony does not look like a natural
bull breaker but he has all the con-
fidence Of the German emperor and
says it is merely matter Of waiting
for the Roundup dates to roll around
and il will be an off with Sharkey, or
words TO that effect
Tony attended the Roundup last
year but he did not try to ride the
bull because he was not in good shape.
He had been working too hard and
was thin, so he says.
ITO rida III bull, man should rest
up month and get strong" is Tony
Touch's motto and ne is going to act
upon it. According to Tony he has
never ridden any bulls in America but

PROBLEM UP TO THE FARMER
of Year to Hatch His Birds
Weather Charts Help.

Every farmer and poultryman, says
Professor Rice, must first solve to his
own satisfaction the time of year in
which to hatch birds so that they
will begin laying just before heavy
frost or freezing weather arrives in
his particular state. This is a very
simple problem, as a glance at the
government and state weather charts
will show the average date of frost
and freezing weather for any given
period of years. Then, taking into
consideration a particular breed and
familiarizing himself with its charac-
teristics, farmer or poultryman can
set the exact date when eggs should
be Matched so as to allow the pullets
ample time to come into full plumage
and maturity before the advent of cold
weather
II. for example, White Leghorns are
the type chosen. farmer will learn
that these birds usually begin laying
at seven to eight months of age He
strikes an average time for the ar
rival of cold weather, probably No
vember Is to %. He looks at his cal
endar and carefully counts back eight
months and finds that March Is to %
is the logical time in which to hatch
out the birds Therefore. If Leg
horns are to lay at eight months, they
must have eight months of weather
absolutely adapted to their fullest de-
velopment before they can be ex-
pected to lay. And they must not
come into laying except in mild wealth
er before their vitality has been taxed
or impaired by cold.

PROVIDE SHADE FOR POULTRY
Ducks and Geese Quickly Succumb If
Unable to Secure Protection From
the Suns Rays.

Failure TO provide shade for poultry
during the summer months not only
results in a large number of deaths.
but the flocks are less productive. The
importance of summer shade cannot
be overestimated Poultry of all kinds
require shade Ducks and geese very
quickly succumb if they are unable to
get protection from the suns rays.
II is easy to provide plenty Of shade.
The Missouri College of Agriculture
recommends the following ways of fur
nishing shade for poultry: Portable
houses can be set up on blocks so that
the birds may run underneath; or
chards. sunfower patches. cornfields,
etc, can be so arranged that the young
stock or mature hens may run in them
Cornfields make excellent summer
range for young stock. They furnish
plenty of shade and other conditions
for rapid economical growth are ideal.
little planning on the part of the
farmer will make poultry keeping
more profitable. BY providing shade
the losses are reduced, the flock is
more productive. and the young stock
will make more economical growth

BULL PEN is AMUSING GAME
It Is Pastime Father and Grandfather
INDUCED in When They Were
Boys-Row II is Played.

How many of you boys know how
to play bull pen? 1t is a game father
and grandfather used to play when
they were boys and just because 1t is
so old. it's probably new. You mark
out a big square on the playground
and have one boy stand at every cor
ner.
If there are many players and the
square is large. you may put player
on the middle of every side also. AS
many players stand in the center of
the square as are on the corners and
sides. The boys on the corners throw
the ball around the square once. then
whoever has the ball throws it towards
the center of the square.
If he hits anyone. that player is out,
and whoever gets the ball must throw
it at someone in the square and try
to put him out. When all but two of
the players on either side are caught,
these two go and hide for moment.
When they come back they have
their hands behind them so the other
PLAYERS cannot see who has the ball.
When a player gets close to the boy
with the ball the boy hits him with
the ball and he is caught. When all
but one on a side is caught, that side
is beaten.

KILL TURKEYS BY STICKING
Fowls Are Drained by Running Point
of Knife Under Eye into Brain
Feathers Pick Easily.

The most common way Of killing
turkeys is to hang them up by their
legs and stick them with a knife in
the mouth, making one or two cuts
diagonally across the roof Of the
mouth. while moving the point Of the
knife forward from the edge of the
skull.
After sticking, the birds are Drained
by running the point of the knife IN
der the eye or into the roof of the
mouth in such way as to strike the
inside of the skull directly between
the eyes, says writer In Prairie
Farmer. The knife may be slightly
twisted when the point reaches the
brain, the bird giving a characteristic
culver when properly Drained, after
which the feathers pick easily.
The feathers are usually picked in
the following order: Flights, main tail,
back, sides. breast, legs and thighs
turkeys a1s usually dry picked and
