LIVED A DOUBLE LIFE.
Chicago Man Under Arrest for Hold
UPS at Night.

Acting by day as superintendent in the
printing department of Chicago manu-
featuring company and at night the part
of charitable highwayman is said to have
been the career of Edward B. Clark now
under arrest. According to his confession
he has played the varied role for year He
has admitted being implicated in several
hold -ups which have puzzled the police In
cidentalIy Clark declared that he had trav-
eled all over the world and that on one oc-
casion, while making trip to China, he
struck down and killed three of crowd
of sailors who had mutinied. Herbert Boyer,
also printer, was taken into custody as an
accomplice.
In all the robberies Clark is said to have
been a charitable thief, returning part OF
the stolen property to the victim. In one
instance he ordered Boyer, at the muZzle
of a revolver, to return a gold watch which
they had stolen from woman. In an
other case he says, he and his companion
were robbed by a bartender after they had
robbed him. Clark's home is handsomely
furnished, and he has borne a good repu-
tatiOn.

STOCK RA1sERs' COMBINE.
Plans for Organization Launched al
Chicago-Its Purposes.

Plans for the organization Of a stock
raisers' combine to embrace the farms ana
ranches of the great central and western
country, have been launched in Chlcaeo'
"A prime aim will be TO see that the pack
ers do not continue to carry OH the non
share of the profits on meats.
Frank J. Hagenbarth. the new president
of the National Live Stock Association IN
outlining the purposes of the proposed COM
bine, said: o,
For the purpose of organization each
branch or interest connected with the hFe
stock industry will be regarded as an en-
tity and unit will form the basis. Each
will organize a general committee These
will represent the interests of the branches
creating them, and will select represen,
tatiye in central committee, which VIII
he the whole executive authority of the as
ISOLATION.
1.-THE annual delegate conventions are
abandoned and there will be held annual
meetings, composed OF all the general COLI
mittees in joint session.
"While every opportunity is provided for
the adjustment of differences between the
branches yet where such matters cannot
be arranged they will be left in the hands
of the branches interested to handle as
they see fit, it being understood that the
national association can act only IN such
cases where a community Of interest is
manifest.
Under present conditions the cattleman
and the sheepman and those who furnish
them credit are reduced to the condition OF
gamblers. Who knows today whether we
are operating on shortage or surplus OF
cattle? To correct this evil we propose to
ask for an annual census of live stock and
farm products. This work will go to the
Department of Commerce and Labor.

Getting Rid of Rats.

Mrs. G. wants to know about getting
rid Of rats. She wants to know If cats
can be trained to refrain from killing
young chicks and pigeons.
We get rid Of rats by not having any
good places for them to hide, by trap
ping them, by poisoning them and by
keeping cats. We manage by using all
these methods to keep them in check, SO
we do not suffer much from their dep
relations. AS to training cats, we have
seen several cats which would not kill
chicks nor catch pigeons-while being
watched. Really we had lot of kit
tens last year which were brought up
in the chicken yards and were on very
friendly terms With the fowls, old and
young. We never knew them to catch
a.chiek--nor a rat-but the rats were
afraid Of them.-Commercial Poultry.

RAISING TURKEYS.
AN Expert Gives Some InfOrmation
Of Value to the Beginner.

1t does not require a great outlay OF
money to prepare for raising turkeys.
but to be successful you must not at
tempt to raise them In your poultry
yard. You cannot do it, am sure.
When your turkeys hatch do not put
them out in the yard with the chickens,
but put them in quiet place where no
other fowls, large or small, can get to
Them Let it be PLACE where they can
have grass, shade and sun. Do not feed
for Mt least thirty six hours after they
are Matched. For the first twenty-four
hours | keep them In BASKET i1G<d

with a wooden cover. / prefer a tur-
key for mother, although a quiet, do

keys to the age of six weeks very nice
ly. Then the poults will generally as
sociate with the other young turkeys IL
there are any, though unless they hap
pen to be nearly the same age the tur-
key hen will sometimes fight those that
she deems intruders. A Brahma or
Cochin hen makes better mother for
turkeys than the smaller breeds be-
cause they carry the young longer.
One essential point in raising turkeys
is to keep the poults free from vermin,
for a lousy roult is,as good as dead, IL
they are allowed to become lousy they
lose their vitality before the lice are
discovered; so in this, as in all diseases,
prevention Is better than cure. When
the hen Is set On the eggs she must be
thoroughly busted with insect powder.
