The dry weather and the price
of feed are reducing horse flesh,

make them lay winter and sum-

should be given to each twelve
hens every morning and a quart
of wholo grain, either corn or
wheat, should be given to every
twelve fouls in the evening. This
food has been tested so often that
no doubt remains of its value.
Hens so fed will lay every day in
winter time as well as in summer
and will not cease during the
oldest weather. A hen is simp-
ly a machine, says this writer,
and if you do not supply tho ma-
terial the hen can not lay the
eggs. A pound of pepper can
bo obtained from any grocery
store for 110 cents and a pound of
red albumen for 00 cents and a
pound of each will feed 50 hens
for more than a month while the
product will be over one hundred
dozen eggs and these times they
would be worth at least $20.

in k letter to tho Philadelphia
Jackson club Fx-.Senator Daid
B. Bill of New Vork said : "Your
letter has just reached me. I
give you this sentiment: A strict
construction uf tho federal c in-
stitution, no entangling alliances
with foreign nations, insistence
upon the reserved rights of tho
states, public taxation for public
purposes only, opposition to mo-
nopolies and dangerous combi-
nations of capital, tho preserva-
tion of the personal liberty of the
citizen, no centralization, home
rule for states and municipalities
—those are democratic principles
wlii 'h survive all defeats and
must ultimately triumph."
<>n the l.'lth, Mrs. I,. Bizzie, a
farmer s wife, living 12 miles in
tho country from San Antonio,
while drawing water from a well
10.) feet deep, fell head-long to
the bottom, and was instantly
killed. She was drawing water,
using the double bucket, the
buckets striking together with
such foroe as to break tho rope,
throwing her into tho well. The
husband had to ride four miles to
a neighbor s to get assistance
and a rope to rescue her.
I cxas is sixth in the produc-
tion of wheat. She is third in tho
money value of the wheat crop.
She will in five years bo third in
the number of bushels produced,
and in ten years she will lead
every state in tho Fnion in the
production of corn and hogs, as
she now leads in tho production
of cotton and cattle. This ie jn.t
a prophecy—it is simply stating
a self-evident fact. — Denisou
ilerald.
I'armors are very busy pro-
paring for another year's crop,
but if it doos not rain in a few
days all work on tho farm will
have to bo suspended, as it is
very dry and dusty," is the stereo-
typed expressions from many
parts of Texas. Tho long con-
tinued drouth throughout this
section is not only distressing but
alarmingly so.
