Will Aid Porto Ricans.

New York, March "A special to the
Herald from Washington says: To re-
lieve the great distress in Porto Rico
caused by the hurricane, Secretary Root,
by direction of the president, has author
lied the use Of $1,225,0OO remaining over
from the emergency war fund. This au-
thorization was made about 10 days ago
as the result Of special report from
MAJOR General Davis, showing the start
hng condition of the natives. The mat
ter has been kept very quiet because Of
the absence of specific appropriat tion
for this purpose the authorities feared
that criticism from those not familiar
with the true state Of affairs in Porto
Rico.
Am amendment has been Incorporated
In the Foraker civil government Porto
Rico bill providing for the reimburse
ment Of the United States out of the rev.
enues of the islands "Of any moneys
which have been or may be expended
out OF the emergency funds of the war
department for the relief of the indus
trial conditions Of the island caused by
the hurricane of August s: 1S99"
1t is assumed by the war department
that congress will make this authorza-
ton before the $1,2250o0 has all been
expended.
General Davis has been directed to
utilize the money in clearing up the
plantaMon so that the farmers may pro-
ceed with the raising Of crops. This
will enable many natives to go to work
at once, and thereby put sufficient money
in circulation to temporarily relieve ex-
listing suffering.

Utah Poultry Experiments
A report of three years results Of
poultry experiments at the Utah Sta.
ton has been published as Bulletin No.
81: The summary issas follows: -
/. What is the most profitable age
Of the hen? Two pens Of Leghorns
averaged IT'S eggs per fowl during the
first year. During the second year the
same fowls averaged 1921, and during
the third. 1161a eggs per fowl. The
per cent profit on. food was 1873 the
first year, 118 the second, and 971a the
third. A test with two other pens of
Leshorns gave the following results:
First year, number of eggs laid, 159:
second year, 1872; per cent profit on
food, first year, 1874: second year. 80.
2. What is the effect of exercise on
egg production? The results for three
years are in favor of feeding grain in
. box against feeding it in straw and
making the hens scratch it out. One
pen with all grain fed in a box aver
aged 147h eggs per fowl per year for
three years. A like pen having the
grain fed in litter of straw averaged
1S2 eggs. During the first year as pull
lets the results were in favor of the
exercise, the pen fed in box averag-
Ing 15S eggs per fowl, against 1872 for
the pen fed in the straw. These re-
suits were secured with Leghorns.
With two other pens of Leghorns.
during the first year as pullets the pen
with Exercise" laid ,160 eggs, and the
pen with mo exercise" 157 eggs. Dur
Ing the second year the exercised"
pen laid 119 and the 'no exercise 12O.
the results for the two years being
practically the same for those two
pens. 8
.. As to the effect Of exercise on
food consumption. the average Of pens
and I for three years shows that tbs
pen with EXERCISE: consumed 62.A
cents worth Of food. and the pen with

other pens the average was 635 cents

favor Of mo exercise" r.:
