WEST POINT BLAZE.
Early Morning Fire Caused $4,000


- E @Z
West Point.-Ffre. that originated III
Turnipseed,s drug store In the early
morning, completely destroyed the
two-story brick building occupied by
the drug store andsth the adjoining
store, occupied by the P. H. White
Co.
The First National Bank building
was left a mass of w~reckage, caused
by the high brick walls falling over
on the roof. Physicians having offices
above the two drug stores suffered
complete loss of fixtures and equip
ment.
The burned structures were situat-
ed in the heart of the business district,
and were among the most imposing
buildings here.
The fire was not discovered until it
had assumed considerable Roadway;
and but for united work by the entire
fre-fighting forces of the city the
flames would probably have burned
more of the business district.
Estimated loss, $4,000; insurance
about SIS 900.

eroodine O., Chicks, Showing Arrangement Of Outdoor Breeders.

wise many hens remain on the nest
and brood the chickens for at least
twenty-four hours after the Matching
is over. Chickens Matched during the
winter should be brooded in a poultry
house or shed, while the outside wealth
er conditions are unfavorable; after
the weather becomes settled, they
should be reared in brood coops out
of doors. Brood coops should be made
so that they can be closed at night
to keep out cats, rats, and other ami
mails, and enough ventilation should
be allowed SO that the hen and chicks
will have plenty OF fresh air. Hens
will successfully brood ten to fifteen
chickens in the early breeding sea-
son, and eighteen to twenty-five in
warm weather, depending Upon the
size of the hen.
The hen should be confined in the
coop until the chicks are weaned,
while the chickens are allowed free
range after they are a few days old.
When hens are allowed free range
and have to forage for feed for them
selves and chicks they often take
them through wet grass, where the
chicks may become chilled and die.
Then, too, in most broods there are
one or two chicks that are weaker
than the others, and if the hen is al
lowed free range the weaker ones
often. get behind and out of hearing
of the mothers cluck and call. in
most cases this results in the loss and
death of these chicks, due to becom-
ing chilled. The loss in young chicks
due to allowing the hen free range is
undoubtedly large.
Chickens frequently have to be
caught and put into their coops dur
ing sudden storms, as they are apt
to huddle in some hole or corner
where they get chilled OF drowned.
They must be kept growing constant
ly if the best results are to be OBJ
tanned, as they entirely recov-
er from checks in their growth even
for a short period. Hens should be
left with the chicks as long as they
will brood them.
