GIRL SAYS SHE WAS KIDNAPPED
Found After Six Months a Farm
Drudae In Catskilla.


Newark, N. j. Dec. 12.-Kidnapped
and compelled to do the meanest kind
Of drudgery on a farm in the heart OF
the Catskill mountains, is the story on
Lulu Mclaughlin, aged IA years, who
disappeared from her home here June
10 last. and has just been restored to
her mother.
Since her mysterious disappearance
the girls father has died. Search for
her was made by police all over the
country. Recently a Catskill mountain
guide informed the Newark police
that the girl was being detained at
Manorkill. A warrant was sworn out
and a detective found the girl at the
home Of Mrs. Elizabeth Rookie, at that
place.
Mrs. Rookie at first refused TO give
up the girl. but when told by the de-
tective that he had a warrant that
could cause her arrest, she surrendered
the child.
Lulu says Mrs. Rookie. who formerly
lived in Newark, asked her TO go away
with her. The child replied that she
would ask her mother about it, but
says Mrs. Rookie told her not to. A
few days later Mrs. Rookie proposed
that the girl go with Mrs. Rockies
daughter to Plainfeld, and the child
consented. From Plainfeld Lulu was
taken to New York, where Mrs Rook'
met her and took her on TO Manorkill

HINTS ON POULTRY RAISING.

Following is the paper reid by Webb
Elliott of DesMoines, Iowa, at the Jas
per, Ala, Farmers institutde:
In referring to farm statistics we find
that no other branch of farming has
given as great profits for the amount in
vested as poultry raising, and l would
say further that no other branch is so
much neglected. The question is some
times asked rs poultry business being
overdone or is there not danger of the
supply exceeding the demand?"
1t requires only a little careful consid-
Grafton of the question to see that there
is not the slightest danger of over-pro-
duction and that there is plenty OF
room for more breeders of poultry.
whether it is for the production Of mar
ket poultry and eggs, or for fancy, ex-
hibition and breeding stock. Our country
does not produce a sufficient amount Of
poultry and eggs to supply the home de-
mand and we are obliged each year to
import thousands Of dollars worth of
each All of this should be produced at
home and the income kept in our home
country instead of sending 1t abroad.
When a farmer expects TO engage in
poultry raising or any other line of
farming, he naturally looks forward to
a profitable market. In many localities
the poultry business is given so little at
tention that the local markets are suf-
ficient for consuming all poultry and
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1904-12-29

development of poultry raising in this
country as well as in other countries.
This machine was introduced less than
twenty years ago. 1t is no longer an ex-
pertinent but an established fact. Yet,
many farmers today look upon it as an
expensive eontrivance and a foolish in
vestment, when a hen will do the same
work for nothing. And again. many inn
agine that the labor of setting and OPP
Grating an incubator is very great. But
If we want early chicks. we can not de-
pend upon the hen, because anyone knows
that setting hens In January are very
scarce. OF course eggs of any description
and especially hatchable eggs, are quite
hard to obtain at this time Of the year,
yet with special effort they can be found,
by making arrangements in advance with
farmers In your community who are not
attempting to make early matches. If
the farmer Is successful In making a
good hatch, he need have no further trou-
BILE in securing eggs as the pullets will
be well matured by October and should
supply the demand for the following sea-
sons Matching.
A good machine should pay for itself
and make profit in one season. The eel
lar is the best place to have the incu-
bator. as the temperature is more uniform
than in same building above ground. In
purchasing an incubator, get a good one,
and then by following Instructions care
fully, you cannot fail to be successful;
and you will find the method much more
interesting and profitable than the old
time way.
Permit me to say in closing that no
where on the farm does forethought and
painstaking care count for so much or
bring so large returns as in the poultry
yard. A percentage of chance or loss IS
incident to any business, but / say to you,
friends, that In no other business is this
percentage so reduced by watchfulness
and care.
Go into the poultry business with a
determination to succeed, take at least
one or two good poultry journals and If
you expect to raise a large number Of
chickens, secure good incubators and
brooders. Be sure to get good stock and
keep 1t up to the standard, or IL possible,
improve It. Leave no stone unturned that
will aid you In making your venture a
silccess and Won will succeed,

PRODUCTION oF LAY.

The farm value of the hay crop of 1903
was computed on December ! Of that
year to be worth $556,376S80, from which
1t may be seen that 1t is very important,
ranking In total value closely to corn
and cotton. The relation sustained by
Southern railway territory toward this
agricultural product. both with reference
to actual performance and demonstrated
capabilities, is very similar in character
to that of other crops large enough and
widely enough distributed to be desig-
mated as national. The average hay
production in Southern railway states,
in 19O3-the latest year for which COM
plete figures are available-was LOO tons.
compared with 1.54 tons per acre for the
entire country-a slender margin of adj
vantage over the country at large, but
large enough, even in the present status
of the south's development, to demon
strate the adaptability of that section to
the growth of grasses and the production
Of hay, on which turns, In very large
measure, the possibilities of realizing the
diversity as to products which the dis
corning economist promises to the Sec
ton; for the grasses and hay mean a
live stock interest without which no sec
ton of country can long prosper The
production of the country at large, In
1903, presented the highest average in
ten years; so there Is no room for the
inference that in the comparison made
the Southern railway states were fav-
ored through an exceptional variation Of
the seasons. In 1897 the average produce
ton was as low as LOG tons TO the acre,
and the only other year in the ten-year
period In which the general average
closely approached 1908 was the year i'm
