iron and bridge work railway workers, Of
whom there are 1000 in the Pittsburg dis
trict. will be granted an increase in wages

Overlooking of Chickens.

The overlooking of chickens so sell
dom happens that it may seem a little
strange to call attention to IL, but over
feeding in connection with too little
exercise Is so common that many
might profit by considering the ques-
tion. Feed the chickens with a liberal
diet of corBmeal. mash, oats, bran and
middlings. and ii they do not take too
much exercise they will become dumpy
and heavy, and some will actually die
over night without any apparent cause.
Some chickens are naturally active
enough TO take all the exercise they
need to keep their systems in gonI
condition, but there are others cons,' :
tutionally lazy, and they will fatteh
themselves to death, and never at
tempt to work off the great amount of
food accumulating in their systems.
They become lazier the more they eat
