Rockwell tells of a man who was in
the habit Of crossing the ocean once or
twice a year on business, and who.
dreaded the recurring trips on account
Of seasickness. After he had tried the
bromide treatment, he wrote to say
that for the first time in his expert

EOOd Profit In Raising Chickens for
Either. Nj S
That there is good profit in both
these branches no one can deny-that
Dne is more profitable than the other
is a disputed question that the two
combined afford a good living is
fact. That living, of course, depends
upon the way the business is run.
No trade becomes successful without
well directed energies back Of it..
Egg farming is a quick way Of pre-
pairing your, birds for market. In fact
the goods are produced ready for ship
mcnt. LII broilerraising the chickens
must be Matched and grown, then
killed, dressed and prepared for ship
ment. At a certain time Of year both
articles bring good prices, and at an
other time prices are low. During
fall, winter and early spring, egg
prices are good; during the latter part
Of spring and summer they hardly
bring enough to pay for the feed of the
stock. In the broiler work, during the
dead Of winter and spring, when they
command good prices, it is hard to
get a good percentage Of fertile eggs
or eggs that will produce good, strong
chicks. The poor percentage is a big
chop at the prices, consequently, low
ering the profits
Taking separate branches in poultry
culture, and depending upon them for
a living, is about as risky as the man
on the farm who would devote all his
land, time and money to one crop. In
case'of success, there is no doubt bout
the good money that will be derived;
but in these days of market fuctua-
tons 1--WE know not what the mex
day may bring FORTH
Now, by making combination of
both eggs and brOilers, or eggs and
market poultry, there is a possible
chance Of equaliZing the income.
Farm-P Poultry of late has been discuss
ing the matter and the conclusion ar
rived at is that during the winter, or
at a season of the year when the mar
ket prices are high, the eggs should be
marketed, and then, when the prices
drop to certain figure, they should be
turned into broilers or table poultry
It is clearly proved that in that way
one branch will help the other and the
income will become more evenly di-
vided.
Farmers may not have the time to
they could turn those eggs into roast
ing fowls. Instances are known to
the writer where both hens and incu-
bators are kept at work during the
spring, summer and part Of fall, and
both stopped when eggs jump up to a
certain figure. In this way there is
always stock enough on hand to meet
any demand. Try the combination

Keeping the Horses Warm.
Where the horse stalls are. at one
side Of the stable, and not shut Off
from the large open space by a close
partition, the occupants Of the stalls
are likely to suffer from cold during
severe weather, even though well
blanketed. Much more feed is CON
sumed in this way, the xtra amount
doing the animal no good except to aid
in keeping him warm. Moreover,
chilly quarters tend to get an animal
out of condition, and so less able to do
his work well, A plan is suggested in

COLLAPSED.
An Old Building at Buffalo, N. Y,
Which Was Being Remodeled, Falls
With Terrific Crash---TWO Killed
And Several Injured.

Buffalo, n. Y, May 21.-This morn
ing the Seneca street side of the Brown
building, formerly occupied by the
Western Union Telegraph Company,
collapsed and a score or more people
wera buried in the ruins. The building
was hHed with Offices, almost all or
which were occupied. The Western
Union left the building a few weeks
ago, and the owners of the block began
the work O; remodelling and strength
ening it. On the Seneca street side
workmen were engaged in putting in
place new iron columns and beams,
when the walls of a section of the
building fell in. Iron columns were
twisted like wires. heavy wooden beams
were torn to pieces, pillars OF brick
crumbled TO pisces and huge cloud of
dust arose, shutting out the wrecked
buildings for some moments.
The immediate cause Of the collapse
of the building is supposed to have
besn rne removal of too many support
ing columns, before the new ones were
placed in position.
Immediately east of the wrecked
building was the barber shop Of George
Sennart. At the time of the collapse
there were several customers and ten
workmen in Sennart's shop. The heavy
walls of the Brown building crashed in
to the shop burying every one therein.
The list of dead and seriously injured
Is as fellows:
The dead are George Metz, barber;
Jennie Griffin, cashier in Sennarts bar
ber shop.
The missing are VIM. P Straub, con-

Grayson, Ky, May 21.-James Dewitt

On the scaffold Dewitt was cool and

PlUmmer, of Newport, Ky, who will
probably hang Jackson, the Fort Thom-
rs murderer, was present at the eXecu-
ton.
The crime for which Dewitt was hang
ed to-day was the brutal murder OF his
wife, whom he strangled to death in the
woods six miles south of Grayson last
September. Dewitt had been living
apart from the woman for several
months. and at the time of the killing
had a suit filed in the Circuit Court for
divorce. He went TO the home of her
parents and engaged her in cOnversa-
ton. finally persuading her to take a
walk with him. In the woods they
Quarrelled and he strangled her, after
wards crushing her skull with club.
Dragging her body off the roadway. he
threw it into a raVHne grown up in
bushes. where a searching party dis
covered it some ten days later. Dewitt
was a member of this party. and his
strange actions just previous TO the
discovery cast suspicion upon him. The
guilty wretch trembled like leaf and
claimed to be having a chill. He was
arrested Immediately and lodged i'll
Jail. After the preliminary hearing
had resulted in his being ordered held
without bail TO answer to the grand
jury. a mob was formed TO lynch him,
and only the quick work of Sheriff Cas-
tie in hurrying him across the country
TO Catlettsburg prevented it, At the
Catlettsburg jail he made a confession
duplicating Burt Rose, whom he claim
ed killed the woman for five dollar
bill she had on her person. Rose proved
a complete alibi and was released.
Later at the trial Dewitt completely eX-
hOnorated Rose in a confession which
only clinched the proof that had been
accumulated against him. He appeared
anxious to atone for the Vline anu

turned verdict of first degree murder,
he thanked them, as he did the judge

he has changed his mind considerably,

way out OF Jail. He has lately hoped
for executive clemency, but wholly
