PROHIBITIONISTS TO >lEET. " t I Conference to be Held in Columbia Next Week. 1 l Columbia, Nov. 26.?A conference of | * prohibitionists is to be held in Colum? bia on Thursday and Friday of next week, at the call of the Rev. J. L. Harley, State superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of South Carolina. What the conference will do is not known, of course, but from the tenor of Mr. Harley's call, it appears that State-wide prohibition is the object of the present movement. Mr. Harley has had the call for the meeting published In the county pa? pers, as follows: "Instead of writing each minister of] the different denominations in South Carolina a personal letter, please al? low me, through your paper, to give them notice concerning our Prohibi? tion convention soon to be held in Columbia. First of all, we want the ministers of every Christian church in the State to be present, and help us make this the greatest meeting of the kind ever held in South Carolina. Brethren, get a few good men in your community together and arrange not only to come yourself, but to bring Dthers with you to represent the coun? ty in which you live. Several speak? ers will be on hand, and a public mass meeting will be held Thursday even? ing, begtnnlnr at 7:30 o'clock, in the hall of the house of representatives, December 3. We hope for a full at rndance at this meeting. We will meet again In the hall Friday morn ng. December 4, at 9 o'clock, to at? tend to the important business com ng before the body. "Let every man interested in tnc rause <;f State-wide prohibition thlnl about It. talk about It, pray about it ind see to it that several good mei are sent to this convention as dele gates from the county in which he re ?ddeS. '"J. L. HARLEY, "State Superintendent Antl-Saloo League of South Caiolina. "Spartanburg. S.C., Nov. 21." It is understood that one of the prop ositlons that may be put before th convention is to ask for a special elet tion on the question of State prohlb tion. with the idea that a bill sha he passed by the general assemb! making a prohibition law go into e feet immediately after such election the majority should be for prohlll tion. This is similar to the plan ado ted In North Carolina. Or it may 1 that the legislature may he memorl Ized to pass a State prohibition law the coming session. As there are so many new mem be of the general assembly, It is yet ll possible to tell how either the hou or the senate stands on the iiqu question, the matter not having be made in i<;u?' in the campaign of h lummor, but the local optlontstq o undoubtedly quite strong, especially the senate.

OW TO GET EGGS IN WINTER. e Progressive Farmer, laving good success with hens lay during the winter months, I >ught probably an outline of my .n of feeding might be of help to ne of your readers.' Getting eggs in nter depends upon feed and warm arters to sleep in, and not so much the breed* as some have it. Any od breed will do. Select good, ong, well developed pullets that re hatched not later than April, latever number you wish to keep; t do not keep over twenty-five in e house. A house ten by six feet is a good :e for that many, built three sides )se and front facing the south. One 12 plank at bottom, three feet wire tting next, and then two lxl2's at e top make a nice front for the >use. Arrange the house Inside so ?u can have a scratching pen under e perches. This Is easily done, by ivlng a shelf Just under the perches catch the dropping; it will also be a ?eat convenience in cleaning out, hlch must be done to insure success, he floor should be filled in so it will 5 dry even during rainy weather, ieep the scratching pen Uttered about ie foot deep with straw or other lit >r, leaves being excellent. Feed all le grain In the litter and cover it up. void feeding too much corn, as there i danger of getting the layers over at, especially where older stock are ept, this showing one of the advan ages of keeping pullets which are not ,pt to get over-fat. Also, not having o go through the molt, they get in ;ood shape for laying in winter. Wheat and oats are fine for the lay ng hens; and where one cannot get yheat, one can always get wheat bran ind shorts which make a splendid sub ititute, equal parts bran and making in excellent mash. Mix with a little .vater, not wet or doughy, but Just moist enough to crumble. This also Jan be thrown on top of the litter in the scratching pen, and the birds will always scratch for what they get in the straw. Be careful not to feed more mash than will be eaten up at once, as it will be liable to sour. This in the morning, with oats buried in the litter, and a good feed of corn at night, one hour before roosting time, will serve for the grain ration; and the hens will get off the roost in the morning and go to scratch? ing for any grain that may not hava been found the day before. This grain must be supplemented with animal food of some sort and green feed. For animal food, one pound of fresh green cut bones per day for twenty hens is best; but where bones cannot be ob? tained, rabbits or lean meat of any sort will do. Milk also is very good, which can be mixed in the mash and also be given as a drink. For green feed, a patch of rye or wheat (I pre? fer wheat) will make plenty of green feed If sown in September; or green feed can be supplied from the family garden, in the shape of collards, beets, carrots, etc., which are hardy an;] stand in the open during the whole winter if a little earth Is drawn up to them In the fall. The chill taken off the drinking water in cold weather is also very beneficial. Do not feed corn alone, and expect eggs in winter. You often hear peo? ple say, "My hens lay in winter and I feed nothing but corn;" but if you look further you will find their hens have a nice grove with plenty of dead leaves to scratch in, where they car find bugs and worms even in the win? ter, also some green feed somewhere around. Keep your hens scratchinj; for what they eat. Such are the hem that lay in winter, not the ones tha sit at the gates or doorsteps lookinj for the next feed of corn to be throw) out on the ground. Try this kind of feeding one sea son and see what results you will gei Start early In the fall, by separatin '9| the pullets you are to keep for layers and feeding them plenty of muscle I- forming foods and not too much con 11 and you will have plenty of eggs i lv winter. I have thirty-pullets that wer 1_ hatched the tenth day of last May ar lf six of them have already (by the mh ?1" die of February) hatched off sevem P" chicks, and eight more of them ai t)<- sitting now. Those pullets were U 11" as above directed. Do not forget ,l see that there Is plenty of grit that tl hens can get as wanted.
