Caught by Detective McGrath as He
 Was sneaking Out of Hotel.

Patrick Lavin went to the Oneco ho- tel on Church street yesterday morning and got his breakfast. After he had eaten it he commenced to tell the clerk a tale of woe. As he saw that the elo- quence of his remarks was being lost he decided that his only safety lay in flight. Therefore he made a rush for the door and arrived there just in time to have it opened by Detective Me Grath, who escorted him back to the desk. When the detective had listened to the story of the hotel clerk he took Lavin to the police station and locked him up on a charge of attempting to defraud a hotel.

Causes of Appendicitis

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-Dr Buffum, an authority on appendicitis, which claims 2S3 victims in Manhattan during the past year, said today ill an interview on the subject:
 "My observation has led me to beleive that appendicitis usually follows severe cases of constipation, ,and that the latter is the prime cause of the disease. In my opinion, appendicitis is on the iscrease. Also, in my opinion, this is due to the fact that people are nowadays eating too much rich foods, having too many late suppers aud gorging their whole systems with too many parties and other fancy dishes, and to the fur ther fact that they are not using the eliminators of the body in good working order.
 ''It will, therefore, be seen that it is not fault of science that appendicitis is increasing. It is not that science can not cope with it. Science may not have been able to do so years ago, but it is able to do so now. And the reason it has not conquered this terrible disease in the cases of many of our prominent men and women who have recently suc- cumbed to it's attacks is that they have not conquered themselves, because these men and women who have too ire quently yielded to the desires of the pal ate and stomach without attention to the simplest rule of health."

VALLEY IN GOOD SHAPE
Farms Are in Fine Condition Cattle
 Being Fattened

A. E. DOdsOn, mention of whose re- turn from couple of weeks trip to the Imperial valley, was made yesterday, reports the country improving beyond expectation. The town of Imperial is growing rapidly and many new brick buildings are being constructed. From Imperial to Calexico, eighteen miles, the entire country is covered with farms now in cultivation, where four years since not an acre had ever been planted. The people there are very much interested in San Diego railroad prospects. Thou sands of cattle are being fed in the val ley. The crops so far have been princi pally barley, wheat, Egyptian corn, sorghum and alfalfa. At present much attention is being given to alfalfa. The Weed Bros. near Calexico have taken steps to put their entire holdings into that profitable feed. Hogs are doing well, and cattle are thriving, although the immense numbers driven from the mountain district, as we'll as from Ari- zona, IS taxing the capacity of the val ley to supply them.
 On his return MT. Dodson and Post master Newkirk, who accompanied him, stopped at the Yuha wells over night The we'll is going down nicely and at that time was 1O75 feet deep. The drill is in shale and the signs of oil are pro- nounced. MT. Swallow, the manager, is in good spirits over the prospect. The surroundings indicate good oil belt. The formation is sandstone The hills ill some places are covered with oyster shells to a depth of two to four feet. The men at the wells had not heard from the seat of war and were quite anxious to get the latest news
 The county from Campo to the coast looks we'll and the farmers are all busy putting in theil grain. Early sown grain is coming up nicely since the late rains. San Diego Union.

OUR POULTRY SHOW
UNCLE SNORT.

How glad we are that Just now so
much enthusiasm is being manifes-
ted in poultry raising. Many En-
terprise readers tell me that they
are truly glad that we have again
started mp the poultry department
in the Enterprise. AS l have gone
from b 0use to house over the coun-
ty l, of course, always pay more or
less attention to the poultry aud
while it is true that there Is in many
focks very marked Improvement
in the birds yet almost everywhere
there are scrubs, little peaked, knot
ty things, that are burlesque even
on common barn yard fowls, and
just in this connection l want to
say again, as l am so often asked,
what is the best all purpose birds,
or the best birds for the farmer?"
AS rule one of the larger breeds is
preferable, such as the Rocks,
the Langhshan or Wyandottes, any
of these with proper care are good
layers, good sitters, good mothers
and quick growers. / now give it
as my opinion from years of expe-
rience that real first class poultry
bring Leghorns up to a good size,
which would make them much more
desirable as farm bird. While it
is true that many, If not all of the
larger breeds, have been bred up to
be entirely too large, there has been
no effort made to breed Leghorns
up to even good size. These breeds
could be bred up to a much larger
size and yet their great laying quail
tiles retained. 1t seems that there
is nothing more generally desired
in poultry than good layers. This
so much desired quality IN hens of
any breed can be attained by care
and intelligent mating. The method
is simple. Here it is: Ifyour birds
run at large keep only one cock or
cockerel to every ten or fifteen hens
and these cocks should be sprightly,
vigorous birds, birds that carry
themselves proudly, that are noisy,
restless fellows, that dc q great deal
of Growing and that are always at
their post of duty. A few years of
careful mating and careful selection
of both cocks and hens will increase
egg production and your little chicks
will be more vigorous, healthy
and thrifty. Much care should
also be taken in the selection of
your pullets as hens. Select plump,
closely built pulIets, not little short
legged dumpy things, but take the
quail as your model or type and get
your hen or pullet as near like her
as possible. L have for years Sc
riously objected to the enormous
wei ght which the American Stan
dard of Perfection" requires of our
larger breeds of chickens. The re-
suit is that the larger breeds are
over grown, are great lazy things
which lay but comparatively few
eggs and often 80 per cent of the
eggs they do lay are infertile.
know of one Barred Rock cock that
has been pushed up to weigh IA
pounds and would not give IA cents
for him only as table bird for a
Thanksgiving dinner. 1t seems to
me that they are trying to make
turkeys of our chickens.
