HOW TO USE HEN MANURE,
PA! HER MURDERS CHILDREN.

SJiouId Ec Mixed Y.TUi S;G3
Ivepi Moist, Sol Y. ,-t.
Hon manure, like Peruvian guano
ancl-ftll other fertilizers rich in ammo
nia, should not in its fresh undiluted
state he permitted to come in imme
diate contact with the toots cf plants,
nor with the seed. The Geer of the
poultry house should be strewed with
powdered muck, or woods earth, or
laud plaster to fix the ammonia aud
purify the atmosphere. Subsequently
the manure should be composted before
being applied to the tield. Usually for
vegetables it should be broadcasted and
raked" in. For greenhouse use it is
nearly always applied in liquid form,
sparingly and cautiously at all times,
as it lias the tendency to “burn” if
used to excess.aud like all other nitrog
enous manures produces leafage rath
er than bloom.
The dung of all domestic fowls and
of birds generally lias marked ma-
nurial properties on account of the
large amounts of ammonia and phos
phate contained. Hen manure could be
successfully used for any greenhouse
crop if composted with five times its
amount of soil (or better, sods), aud to
every barrel of manure 15 pounds of
pure ground bone and five pounds of
sulphate of potash, the whole to be cut
down and well fined and mixed before
using. The same could be used for
vegetable growing in the hills, or could
be simply mixed with enough dry earth
plaster or rock phosphate to dry it and
be spread on the garden and harrowed
in. t n
All greenhouse crops thrive equally
well with the use of lieu manure. For
the purpose of watering plants the pro
portion of manure that may be mixed
with water varies according to the sort
of plant. About one ounce to two gal
lons of water may generally be used
with safety; some plants will, however,
bear a stronger solution.
An excellent plan of applying hen
manure is to mix a portion with (in any
case) several times its bulk of soil or
garden refuse, and so form a fertilizing
compost which may be applied to al
most any garden crop with excellent re
sults. Composts thus prepared become
useful in two ways: The powerful
properties of the manure become, when
mixed with soil, partly absorbed by
the latter and are thus rendered less
harmful, and at the same time the de
composition of ail the vegetable matter
is hastened.
The quality of poultry manure to ap
ply also depends somewhat on the na
ture of the soil. If broadcasted on the
land and well worked in with harrow
or rake, as much as 1,000 pounds per
acre may be used. Damage from its
ase^occurs mostly when applied to
crops in hill or from lack of rain. We
have never seen too much used. The
difficulty has been that farmers use too
little of that duplicate guano.
If the poultry droppings are collected
daily, mixed with an equal bulk of dry
dirt and stored in barrels, they will be
in excellent condition for use in the
garden when required. But the fre
quent admonition to keep them dry
should not be followed. If allowed to
become dry in the poultry house, por
tions soon reach an insoluble condition.
If collected daily and kept somewhat
damp, not wet, they will not lose am
monia and will give better results
when applied to the soil. — A. V.

Louisiana Finn Stands Accused of Aw

Forest H-II, La., Jan. 7.—-Yesterday
two children of G. E. Keener, aged IS
months, and an infant, were found
dead in bed with their skulls crushed.
Keener sent his wife about 100 yards
to a water hole for water. On ner
return lie told her he had put the chil
dren to sleep, and left, saying he was
going to the house of Mr. Bedgood to
sell chickens.
Shortly alter he left Mrs. Keener
noticed one cf the children gasping,
and went to it and discovered tfie two
dead, with their heads badly crushed.
Coroner S. H. Rushiilg impaneled a
jury and investigated the matter. The

Hunter Accidentally Killed.
Winter Park, Fla., Jaii. 4.—A sad
shooting accident, on account of which
Ed Self, a former citizen of Winter
Park, lost his life, occurred near Plant
City on Tuesday morning. Mr. Self
had gone from Plant City, where he
had lived for about a year, on a hunt
ing expedition in company with a
friend. They were in a buggy, and
when about 4 miles from town stopped
to look for quail, and while Mr. Self
was hitching the horse a covey of quail
flying from the place, the friend, in the
excitement of the moment, fired at the
birds without noticing that Mr. Self
was in. x-ange of his gun. The result
was that a large part of the charge en
tered Mr. Self’s body, inflicting wounds
from which he died.
Florida Tourist Season On.
Jacksonville, Fla.. Jan. 7.—The win
ter season of Florida, it can well be
said, is now on, and during the next
week thousands will, as the advance
guard, enter the state and quietly take
their places at the various winter re
sorts for which Florida is famous. The
transportation men declare that this
winter's season will be the best Flor
ida has ever experienced. They con
tend that thousands will visit the ex
position in Charleston -who never came
south before, and that a large majority
of these people will extend their visit
to Florida.

counties, is $97,561,000.48. The as
sessed valuation for taxes of 1900 was

for 1901 over 1900 of $S74,094. The
gain is general, each county sharing
therein
East Coast Chautauqua.
Melbourne, Fla., Jan. 4.—The plans
for the auditorium of the East Coast
Chautauqua have been completed; the
lumber is on the grounds, and S. H.
Gove will put a gang of men at work
on the building on Jan. 6. The build
ing will have a seating capacity for
1,000 people. The platform will be
large and will have two banks of seats
for the chorus.
Quick Death to Two.
Houston, Tex., Jan. 7.—Late last
night a Southern Pacific train ran
down and killed Joseph Paskey, aged
40, and John Powers, aged 60. The
men were walking on the track and
did not hear the train as they were in

Albany. Ga., Jan. 7.—D. W. Hockett,
the real estate man who disappeared
from Albany between suns ten days
ago, was arrested yesterday morning
in Montgomery, where he was recog
nized by a former Albanian. He will
be brought hack here as soon as a
requisition can be procured and sent
through the necessary channels. Hock
ett will have to answer to several
charges of larceny after trust, and a
number of alleged crooked transac
tions.
Crowding on the Perches.
Hens wiil crowd on the roosts even
when there is an abundance of room.
I believe that this crowding causes
thc-m to rest less perfectly than they
would if not crowded, and thus their
strength and productiveness are lessen
ed. Again. I think this crowding causes
them to overheat and thus become more
apt to take cold. To prevent these evils
I bore holes five-eighths of an inch in
diameter, eight inches apart from cen
ter to center, for Rocks, seven inches
for Leghorns, in the upper sides of the
roosts and stick wooden rounds about
15 inches long in the holes. If the
rounds are only a few incdies long, a
lien will sometimes fly up between two
hens and light on top of a round.—Ste
phen Barnsdale.
Guineas.
Why not raise a drove of guineas?
asks a writer in Farm Journal. Their
eggs are as good as hens’, and their
flesh has the flavor of wild fowl and is
popular with epicures. Their danger
signal makes them equal to the best
of watchdogs in giving warnings and
scaring off prowlers. They are no
harder to raise than turkeys and will
glean a living from orchards and fields.
The white guineas are preferred by
many because they are peaceable and
more domestic in their habits than
the pearls.
Suicide at Talbctton.
Talbotton, Ga., Jan. 7.—William Ed
ward McNeil, manager of the Talbot
ton telephone exchange, committed sui
cide yesterday morning by cutting his
throat with a razor. Mr. McNeil was
a son of the late Captain James Mc
Neil. of this place, and was highly es
teemed for his many estimable quali
ties. No cause is assigned for the
act.
