make liens lay, tie a stout string
around the hen’s body lay the bird
on her side on a board and fasten

An exchange says that a farmer
who knows considerable about a
horse, says the following is a good
thing to keep in the barn all the

level tablespoonful to each horse
■ once a week in his feed. This, he
says, will prove a most valuable
condition powder and saves many
a tit of sickness. I f a horse takes
cold, give him this a few days and
it will heli> greatly in bringing
about a cure.

V.eiv i.1 tue paper, but will wond
ei in vain. 1 here is evidently a
vast amount of sponging done. It
might be added that he may say
nice thmgs about a man for ten
years, tfHhout a word from him,
but make an uncomplimentary
notice of one of his wife’s aunt’s
second cousins and he will come
in with a club to have the slander
corrected.

FATHER SHOT BY HIS SON.
John King, a farmer living live
miles southeast of Austin, was
shot and perhaps fatally wounded
by his 17-year-old son, Walter, a
few days ago. It is claimed that
King had been abusing bis wife.
The boy had took his mothers’s
part and had repeatedly pleaded
with his father not to abuse his
mother.
The angered father is said not
to have heeded the warning given
bv his son, and the latter seized a
shotgun and tired, the load enter
ing King’s neck, inflicting such
serious wounds and causing such
heavv loss of blood that it is not
believed to be possible for King
to recover.
Young King has been arrested,
and is held pending ascertainment
of the result of his father’s
wounds.
