Bandits in the Mountains.

SAN ANTONIO. April 1.--villa has eluded his pursuers again. and entered the fastnesses of the Guerrero mountains. and the chances of catch ing him now seems to be far less than they were yesterday. After the skir- mish yesterday. when Col. Dodd. with flying detachment. surprised the outlaws at breakfast, killing thirty and wounding many more. Villa di- vided his forces into three bands, keeping only twenty picked men with him. and entered the mountains.
 With these men it is believed that he can elude all the American sol diers sent against him.
 It is reported that one division of his force went south into Durango, heading for the Sierra Madre noun tains, while the. other crossed the Frailroad south of Chihuahua City, and are endeavoring to incite the inhabi- tants against Americans.
 The situation is reported to be very discouraging to the military authori- ties. as it was hoped to head him off before he succeeded in reaching his mountain retreat.

Dodd Surprises Mexicans.

FL PAs0, AprN 1.-Ry making g soresa march of seventeen hours. with a picked body of cavalrymen, Col. Dodd, in commend of detachment sf United States troops, overhauled Villas fleeing band and after run ming fight of ten miles, succeeded in Killing thirty of them. and badly scat tering the remainder. Four Ameri- cans were wounded.
 For the past ten days Villa has been working southwark, until he is now on the border of Chihuahua and Durango, in the northwest corner of she latter state. He is making for the heavily wooded fastnesses of. the Sierra Madre mountains, where it is believed he will disperse his band and go into hiding, until the search for him shall have ceased.
 The skirmish between the Villaistas and the United States troops occur red at San Geronimo, in the south vest corner of Chihuahua, about 10 miles east of Halleza, at the head Of the St. Mary's river. The country is badly cut up with afroyas, and is trib- utary to the Sierra Tarahumare range afxmountains.
 yiAa's flight has beep parallel with th4 National of Mexico railroad. and as he has been assisted by the vil- lagers and ranchers along the line of retreat Col. Dodd,s feat of overtak- ing him is one of the most brilliant feats of the campaign.
 Dispatches indicate that Villas band was overtaken early in the morning of the twenty-ninth, as they were getting breakfast, and the sur prise was most complete. as the out laws had barely time to saddle and run, leaving their supplies and camp
 equipment in the hands of Col. Dodd

HEN IS THE BIGGEST EATER
Fowl Turns Out More Food, Accord ing to Weight, Than Best Dairy
 CoW-MarveI of Efficiency.

The hen is the biggest eater of all domestic animals. A three and one-s half pound hen, according to Doctor Rice of Cornell will eat 11O pounds of food in year. She will lay 30 pounds of eggs, or perhaps more. Eggs are highly concentrated food, and the hen that transforms hundred pounds of bran, grass, grain and gravel, and other scraps into one-third their weight of fresh eggs, is a marvel of efficiency. The hen therefore turns out more food, according to her weight, than the best dairy COW.

TO BREAK HENS FROM SITTING
Wait Until She Gets Well Settled Then Place Her in Open Coop
 Soon Forpets Desire.

To break hen from sitting let her sit day or two until she gets well settled, then put her, preferably with two or more other hens, into an open coop in full view of the poultry yard, where she can see her free sisters scratching around enjoying themselves. Hens are jealous creatures and sit ting hen placed in such a position and well fed, soon forgets her desire to sit, and when given her freedom on the morning of the fourth or fifth day she will happily resume the duties of hen life.

There are two different breeds of guineas, the white and the pearl. Both breeds are excellent summer layers, and the eggs are of superior quality. The guinea egg is about two-thirds as large as the hen egg, and has de- cidedly better flavor. The guinea hen begins to lay as soon as the weather gets warm in the spring. If they are well fed during the winter they will begin to lay earlier than if they are only half fed through the winter.

Most guinea raisers recommend keeping one male bird for every five hens; we kept only two male birds with 20 hens last year and the eggs matched as we'll as they did when we kept more males. The fewer male birds that are kept in the flock, the less quarrelsome they are.
