natural. In the-first place he was a

The census report for 1--30 shows tht
value of eggs produced annuaLly to be
over 5100,000.000, while the value of
poultry chickens, turkeys, ducks and
geese i amounted to about the same. Or.
to make it plain, the total annual pro
duction of poultry and egip smeunts to
?200i000.0 e. At'the present prices of
wheat, the poultry and eggs are the
more valuame, auc tne martcet is nere
at nome.
It is safe to say that the re-
port dees not include all, as a large
number of nersons were not visited
during the enumeration of poultry and
eggs, but the tigures are sufficient to
enable those interested to arrive at a
partial knowledge of the poultry and
egg production. In a single decade the
poultry and eggs of the United States
amount to enough to pay off our na
tional debt, and the money invested in
that direction nuds its way into aii
ether business channels.

having nothing to do visited the spot,
and for pastime were allowed to dig
out some of the rock and pan out the
gold. As every man in that vicinity
was in bad condition financially, and
without other means for raising the '
money for the proper celebration of the
approaching rourth of July, quite an
onenmg was made and the proceeds de
voted to that perpese.
From this little incident dates the
cis -overy of gold in the Holy Terror
ntintr. which from day to day causes
greater excitement in mining circles.

Persistent prospecting revealed no
other place where the vein came to the
surface save this one spot, which has
been walked over eerj day for years. '
Mr Franklin took in T. C Blair as
partner, and a shaft was begun, the
ore taken out being treated in the Key
stone mdL an I returned value much
above the expense of sinking the
shaft. When the shaft reached a '
' depth of forty fret, developing a well ,
denned vein, which steadily improved ,
j with width and value as depth was
gained, the owners made an arrange
ment with J. J. Fayei ana Albert Ams-
, bury, by which they agreed to erect a
stamp mill on the property in consid- '
1 eration of a half interest in the mine.
A five stamp mill with an engine ca-
pacity of ten stamps or more wascuick-
i ly built at a cost of a coat 55, COO, and
put in operation three weeks age
While the mill was being built men
were employed to run drifts north and I
south from the shaft at a depth of
forty feet, while sinking was pushed in
the shaft. M est of the ore milled has

the original sod hcu?e. and the shift
ing transients who move at a sigii &z
trouble and come back in time of
prosperity.
A woman's lot is the harder: she
raisse? more things 12 such a life than
a man dos. If she is strong enough,
mentally and physically, tn endure it
until they come !nt better things,
she lives out her allctta sic;-? ufi-

If she has a menta. 01a- tnwam tne

When the old od house blown
over, or caves in. they put up another
on the same plan, without a thought
an improvement- They take the !
wooden frame out of the obi nouse
and the rest of it fads in and mingles
with the prairie again: ia a short
time not a trace of it is tr be seen.
