IT IS NOT A SIAM FIGHT.
The Battle Against the Trusts In n
Very Real Struggle Mt
Washington.

There is humorous side to this
trust battle in congress. The re-
sponsibility being with the republi-
cans, the democrats are on the alert
for any party capital the contest
may afford. Their first proposition
was that no action of any kind would
be taken. The trusts We're declared
to be masters of the situation. They
would be able to put a stop to what
ever might threaten them with
trouble. Now the tune is changed.
The republicans having moved
against the trusts their measures are
ridiculed. We are told that if all
of them We're rolled into one the
trusts would have nothing to fear
1t is sham battle. No trust is in
danger. No trust really is alarmed.
The present clutter is mere stage
play. When the curtain descends
trusts and politicians walk off to-
gether arm in arm, both sides might
lily pleased with the entertainment.
From another quarter comes the
suggestion-with distinctly the trust
tang to it-that the president is be-
ing played upon by enemies within
his party; that he is being cheered
on against the trusts by men who
seek his overthrow; that they would
enjoy nothing so much as seeing him
continue to grid at men who control
millions of caaital and who are GER
tai fn NJ VT att OF
the republican national convention,
or later, at the polls. Which, of
course, is to represent the president
as a mere tool, and these republi-
can friends of the trusts as preprr-
ing to go over openly or secretly to
the democracy next year.
These little humors-entertaini
in their way-are of no serious con-
sequence, says the Washington Star
Qnd.). They agree with those who
see no force in the measures under
consideration. They do. Their activ-
ity here is not bogus. They are
most earnestly trying to defeat the
presidents recommendations to con-
gress by every means in their power.
AS for those republicans who may be
playing the game of the trusts now,
and are displeased with the prcsi-
dents course, they will be forced
next year, so far as trust interests
are concerned, to choose, as it were,
between the devil and the deep sea.
Both parties will declare against
trusts, and both candidates for the
presidency will commit themselves
unequivocally on that subject. What
will it profit trust republican,
therefore, to leave his own party, or
sulk in his tent, when the other party
will be appealing for votes on anti
trust lines?
The situation upon the whole is
promising for legislation that will
count. 1t may not cover the case
as thoroughly as could be desired,
but it should help materially to
strengthen the hands of the govern
ment IN ueartins-:Al,- yi-&<S difficult

TIE Island Home Of Lord
Kitchener ir1 Egypt * *
He Is tho fossessor Of Charming That Is Shut
Oar from the Worlds Eyes.

hI01O one ever thinks of Gen.
s4sas Kitchener as anything save
%6%SSA the stern, unrelentng war
'As-TN rior; the fighter of his
@@W country's battles; the per-
W. sistent hammerer at per-
sistent foe. He has never
been credited with anything akin to
sentiment, and no one in all the British
empire would ever think of accusing
him to his face of having ever been in
love, or of expecting to be.
And yet Kitchener owns the very
ideal of a place for spending lifelong
honeymoon with an adored one, and
what is yet more, he is constantly add
ing to the beauties nature so bounte-
ously bestowed upon this fair retreat;
fixing it in way that is practical
from the bridegroom's standpoint, for
Kitchener even in love affairs could
not be other than practical.
He has veritable Eden less than
half way round the world from where
the first Eden must have been located.
Now the question that is being asked
behind his back is: els it to be an Eve
less Eden, or has this bold warrior
won battle with Cupid, and is he to
soon carry away to his prison para
disc captured bride"
The stole Briton is not averse to
bit of romance, and should Kitchener
add romance to his life of adventure he
would be greater figure in the eyes of
his countrymen than he is to-day, if
that be possible.
What more romantic place could
Kitchener select in which to pass his
declining years, with or without a
wife, as the case may be, than in the
land where he first Won worldwide
fame as a soldier-Egypt, along the
STORED Nile. 1t is here that he has
purchased an estate that in beauty,
if not in extent, is in keeping with his
Gtle-kitchener of Khartoum.

The Usefulne.. of Poultry

Poultry may be raised with the
greatest economy on large farms.
where there is unlimited range, an
eNbaustless supply of insects and
worms and abundance of seeds and
grains going to waste which poultry
alone can utilize. Under such cir
cumstances fowls can take care of
themselves so well, and are so ener-
getic in seeki.g their food that they
are either forgotten and allowed 10
shift for themselves when they really
need atuention and assistance, or they
are regarded as a nuisance because
1hey sometimes do little damage.
When fenced away from gardens and
flower beds fowls cause little dam
age or annoyance on farm. They
do an immense amount of good in
the protection of crops by the de-
struction of injurious insects, larvae
and worma.

THE EARLY SITTER.
Little Homemade Device by Which
Her Usefulness Can BE Mate
rally Increased.

Setting aside the question of ex-
pensive incubators and brooders,
while at the same time admitting
their desirability, if our purse would
admit OF their possession, we should
try to utilize the early sitter. The
latter is either an early molted hen
or an early Matched pullet, and if
well fed and warmly housed since the
beginning of cold weather, she is
broody about midwinter and ready
for clutch of eggs. Being one of
the very first to take to the nest,
she is valuable, and her value may be
greatly increased by the aid of a
little homemade device or two which
will enable us to utilize her incubat-
ing qualities to their fullest extent.
This can be done by making a
cheap brooder, just large enough for
one brood of chicks. For this pur-
pose a cracker box may be used.
Make a door of the front end and
nail some strips crosswise inside, and
about four inches up from the bot
tom. On these Slated frame
siiouia NC uaceu extending ABOUT
half the length of the box. On the
frame a square tin tank about five
inches high and about as long and
wide as the frame should rest. A
trimmed hole should be made in the
top of the tank and large cork
used to fit the hole. A cloth cur
tain should hang from the front
edge of the cross strips to the floor
of the box, as shown in the illustra-
ton.
Then, when the early sitter matches
her first lot of chicks, they should
