Good Tips About Eggs

In the Farm and Preside writer says:
 Beginners in poultry keeping often wonder why some hens will lay stead fly when eggs are worth but 10 cents a dozen and lay only an occasional egg or loaf continually when eggs are "a cents dozen. used to blame the hen, but now I know it isn't her fault.
 T have found that the time of year that the hens lay best is in the spring When there is plenty of green feed and an abundance of exercise. By feed ing gree>~ oducts in the winter and compelling them to keep in action can best initiate nature and bring spring conditions to my hens. The question is, does it pay? It pays me.
 Cabbage and any of the beet fam fly are green feeds which l used prof itably to feed my chickens in the win ter. Green cured alfalfa and clover, which has been steamed or boiled, sprouted oats. or pumpkins have also been profitable green feeds for my chickens"

GOOD BUILDING YEAR
MANY SUBSTANTIAL STIstt'
TURES IN PROSPECT-MA-
TERIALS LITTLE HIGH
ER NOW.

Indications are that it will cost a
little more to build a house in Mad
ison next spring than it did a year
ago, lumber dealers say. One reason
given for the increased cost of build
ing materials is the demand for lum-
Der and iron warning nations are
making upon institutions in this
country. France recently purchased
about 5000. 600 feet of lumber
from mills on the Pacific coast. 1t
Is said that other huge contracts for
lumber are pending. Most OF the
lumber sold here comes from the Pa
cific coast.
l.. H. Blagen, manager of the
Hayes-Lucas lumber yards here, said
today that the rise in the cost of lum-
Der is not as yet particularly pro
nounced, but that it is not improbable
that there will he still further adj
vance in prices. Mr.. Blagen told
that in that regard, much depends OF
how badly foreign nations are going
TO need building materials. There
has been no material change in the
price of lime or cement recently. it is
explained.
Lumber dealers and contractors
are looking forward to a prosperous
building year. They point out tina
there are several substantial build
ings already assured for the comlnf
spring and summer. Included II
these are the federal building, th'
site for which has been purchased
the new preparatory building at thu
State Normal, the appropriation TO
which has been made; the new the
alter on Fifth street, and the rebuild
ing of the Central school wing. de
stroyed by fire. or the erection OF
new wing there. 1t is rumored tina
negotiations are under way for tn
construction of one or two new stor
buildings, and that there is a move
ment which may bring a large hotel

PAVING ORDINANCE
WILL PROVIDE FOR PAYING FOR
PAVING IN INSTALLMENTS-
ENGINEER To REPORT.

Property owners in Madison are
going to be permitted 10 pay for paw
ing in installments.
At last nights meeting of the city
commission, an ordinance which will.
when finally passed. provide for the
paying for paving in yearly install
ments, was given its first reading. IT
will probably be given its second
reading and become a law at the
commissioners meeting next Monday
night.
1t is also thought probable that the
commission at its next meeting will
order the advertising of the necessity
for and the ACCESSIBILITY of paving
Egan avenue. No formal action was
taken on the proposed Egan avenue
paving at last nights meeting. Tho
commissioners are waiting for a re-
port on the proposed Improvement
from the city engineer. 1t is said
that the engineers report will prob
ably be prepared this week.
Considerable routine business was
transacted at last nights session o!
the commission.

COYOTE STORIES


Pierre, Jan. 11.-The open season
for coyote stories has begun. The
prize ones are these:
George Becker. of Sully county.
while scooting across the prairie on
his motorcycle. sighted a coyote and
gave chase. He ran the animal down
and having no other weapon with
him, hurled a wrench. The coyote
dropped over dead. The bounty will
pay Becker for the gas consumed in
the chase.
A school ma'am in Pennington
township, Sully county, discovered a
young coyote in the school yard. In
stead OF screaming for help. she
chased the animal into a corner OF
the yard, e~nveloped it in her apron
and bundled It UP alive.

Farmers in central Iowa, which To-
cality prides itself on being in the
center of the country's premier corn
belt, have found ii necessary to call
on the grain growers of Lake county
for seed corn.
Charles Fl. Thurow, who twenty
years ago., was county register here,

candidate for a second term, declined

MONEY TO Lend
CEMETERY ASSOCIATION IN
GOOD CONDITION-OFFTCERS
ELECTED AT ANNUAL
MEETING.

That the Madison Cemetery asso-
citation is on q more substantial foot
ing financially than it ever has been
before was evidenced by the contents
of the reports of the treasurer and
secretary, submitted at the annual
meeting of the association, which was
held last night in the county court
house. 1t was also shown hat the
plans carried out last year for beau
tifying the grounds had more than
come up to expectations.
With the permanent fund gradual
ly increasing, two real estate loans
and with a balance of $9l7.24 in the
treasury reports showed.
1t was decided to continue the iron
fence along the east side of the new
addition and to put in another arch
gateway to correspond with the one
over the main entrance.
1t was the unanimous opinion of
the officers that the excellent appear
ance of the grounds last season more
than paid for the additional help re-
quired to care for all the lots and the
plan will be continued for another
year. In recognition of the splendid
service of Mr.. Delano Greene. as sex
ton, and his faithful work for more
than six years, his salary received a
substantial increase.
The following officers were elected
for the year 1916:
President, Mrs. f.. j. Curtis. vice
president. Mrs. n. B~Iornstad: secre-
tary, F.. l.. Burnett; treasurer, VIM.

and that farmers there were willing
