The Literary Man's Chickens;
An Lndiana man tells of the efforts of
an author belonging to the Iloosier
school of historical novelists to put in
his leisure time as a "hen farmer" in
that State. The literary person's venture
afforded his agricultural neighbors no
end of amusement.Durfug his first year the amateur far-
mer discovered that all his little °ltlek-
ene, which were confined in coops, were
languishing at the point of death, The
novelist went over his "ben literature"
to locate the cause of the trouble, but to
no avail.
Finally he called upon an old ebap
named Rawlins, to' whom he put the
question:
"What do you suppose is the matter
with those chickens?"
"Well, I donne," said Rawlins. "What
do you feed 'em?"
"Feed theml" exclaimed the novelist -
farmer, "why, I don't feed them any-
thing "
Then how'd you s'pose they was a-
goin' to live?"
"I presumed," replied the literary per-
son, "that rho old hens had milk enough
