STATE HISTORY.

The early settlers in what is now
West Virginia evidenced their pros
perity by wearing brilliants in the
buckles worn at their knees or on
their shoes. James H. Miller in a
History Of Summers County" de-
scribes the dress of the men before
the Revolutionary War as follows:
"The married men shaved their
heads and wore wigs or linen caps.
Mems coats were made with broad
backs and straight, short skirts so
short as to barely reach the knee,
with a band around the knee, fas.
tened at either end with silver
buckle. The stocking was drawn
under the knee-band and tied with
garter-red or blue-below the
knee. so that it might be seen. The
shoes were of leather or moccasins.

We're killed, and giving promise Of
producing fruit The phenomenon is
not an entirely new one, we are in

that what amounts to an almost en-
tiraly new set Of buds appears late
and frequently bears the fruit In
view Of this fact there is some addi-
tional basis for suspecting that
there will be some apples in the sec

THE HIGH TIDE OF CRIME.
The wave of crime which has

osd, but it is no basis for concluding
that the eounty's crime is greater
than it is in other counties. Three
of Berkeleys cases are hold-overs
and the alleged acts were committed
months ago Statistics tend to indi-
cate that crime sweeps the country

Germany used to have the best

EASToN. Nd. June 14.-whiie
there are no actual records kept
showing the exact number OF hens
in Talbot county, there are a num-
her OF other things from which some
satisfactory figures can be obtained.
II is believed that there are 1900
country places having chickens, and
the average will be about 755 20
each. Add a fair estimate from the
towns and villages and a total for
the county viii be about 125, 900.
From some experiments carried
on by County Agent Wallis. II is seen
that $50 eggs a year is the average
production per hen. OF 17,750,OO0
eggs a year The average price
realized rs 30 cents a dozen. To on
set this there is the cost OF feeding,
which Is about s5 year.
AS the value OF each hen a. an av-
erage of 81. a considerable loss Is
entaiied. Il is said, n interest on the
investment is taken into account
But this should not be, and County
Agent Walls has been demonstrating
It to several pouitrymen during the
past winter. The trouble is twofold
In the first place, the average poul-
tryman does not make the proper
selection of pullets for egg produc-
ton, especially during the winter
and, IN the second place, the righi
kind Of food is not used
As an Illustration, one farmer liv-
ing near Easton had a flock OF 90
hens which were kept apart from
the res tand fed according TO direc.
tions. The first week there was Z
loss of 90 cents The following
week a gain OF cents was had. and
