Collecting . Good LAYER.

An old country poultryman makes
the following suggestions as help In
selecting good layers: There are GER
tain individual characteristics, one Of
which is the shape Of bird. II
straight line be drawn from the back
of the head to the toes. the hen which
is likely to be good layer will usual
" have the hinder half Of her body
largest. whilst a hen which may be
suspected Of being poor layer will
show more In the front; the reason
being that poor layer makes bet
ter table bird. and has larger, longer
breast, whilst good layer makes
poor table bird, and has a compare
lively small breast, whilst the egg or
gans are more fully developed. Birds
which are good layers are usually very
active. They always look healthy, and
in most cases their combs are usually
fully developed, particularly II they
belong to the long-combed varieties.
which are reputed to be the best lay
ers. A hen with long comb may
usually be regarded as a good layer.
and IL she IL not there must be some
special reason for the contrary"

Cattle and Meat Inspection.

The departmental report Of the
Bureau Of Animal Industry from
which Secretary Wilson prepared that
part Of his annual report relating to
livestock matters will show an in
crease in the number Of government
meat inspection depots from nine in
1891 to 1873 in 1903. During this year
11.9OO,0OO live cattle were inspected by
the bureau agents, 100000 sheep, l.
100000 calves, 31.50O.OOO hogs and q
few horses. OF these animals about
125.0O0 were rejected. subject to the
result of post mortem examination.
The post mortem inspections for the
year show practically the same figures,
a total Of 37,261.629 carcasses, of
which 7S.4T2 carcasses were condemn
ed and 64.4sO parts of carcasses con-
demned. The figures show S44 horses
slaughtered for food purposes.

sheepfoEeweedy Farm.

A Kansas correspondent has q
weedy farm, wishes to try sheep, and
wants to know what breed is best
to start with in a section where but
few sheep are grown and the surplus
would have to be sold to the local
butcher.
We would get as good type Of NUT
ton sheep as we could conveniently
without inquiring particularly as to
the breed. We would not take Meri-
nos. however. unless they were pretty
well graded up with some Of the NUT
ton breeds of which the Shropshire is
the most generally known and very
popular breed. We would not get
more than twenty-five or fifty to start
with and would use buck Of the NUT
ton breeds that we could get most con-
veniently; Shropshire, Southdown,
Hampshire or Oxford. II the butchers
do not give enough we would kill the
surplus ind sell them to the neighbors.
Where man has weedy pastures or
weedy lands, any kind of sheep will
pay even II he has to sell the surplus
at low prices.-wallace's Farmer.

ten ships which brought our imports
and bore away our exports last year
were foreign vessels. built abroad, Of
flcered and manned abroad, part of
the potential naval reserve of foreign
governments" This depressing fact
seemed to have weighed upon the mind
of Senator Quay who dominated the
convention and who wrote or was re.
sponsible for the platform. for the
platform continues. that 1t favored
''the building Of an American merchant
marine that American built ships and
American seamen may have the car
rying Of at least a fair proportion Of
American passengers and freightage."
This apparently patriotic utterance
did not evidently tighten the gloomy
feelings of Senator Quay. nor even
one Of the hundreds of his satellites
that attended the convention. No sug-
gestion was made of any hope of a
way to improve this desperate con-
dition. the convention wishes to leave
1t to the voters to discover the rem
edy. But this lack of foresight, or
statement of what would quickly re-
lieve the American ship trust mag
mates from the slough of despond, was
well known to Senator Quay. Only a
short time before the platform was
concocted he had promised Griscom
and Cassett. respectively. the ship
trust and railroad magnate. that such
plank would be included, SO that
when the ship subsidy bill was re.
ceived in Congress all the Pennsyl-
vanla delegation could Justify their
votes for subsidy. The prospect Of
a good large subsidy always cheers
the dropping spirits of Pennsylvania
Republican, but 1t does not always do
to publicly resolve for 1t, SO Quay
left the voters in the dark and left
them to brood over the decline Of the
American marine.
Quay and the trust magnates know
there Is millions In 1t, If the subsidy
bill can only be passed, but the peo-
pie are rather ticklish OH subsidies,
they know they will have to pay the
big bill and are not SO enthusiastic,
for the old flag and an appropriation,
as Quay and the ship trust magnates
are. In some other States the same
tactics will be used to bolster up the
discredited ship subsidy and If Pres
ident Roosevelt does not carefully
watch the incubation Of the national
platform by Senator Lodge. he will be
committed to the scheme as the Penn
sylvanta delegation are.
Only eternal vigilance will prevent
the subsidy hunters from loading the
taxpayers with this enormous expen-
diture for long term of years and
their persistence would have been re-
warled ere this If the Democrats had
not been on guard against it.

FALLS TO HIS DEATH
Charles LundahI Knocked From
Roof of Slx.story Building

Charles Lundahl, an ironworker,
was killed yesterday by falling from
the roof of a six-story building at
Smelling avenue and Randolph street,
on which he was at work, yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock He died at
midnight at the city hospital.
M Lundahl was employed with a crew
of men placing structural iron beams
on the roof, when one of the beams be-
came loosened, and, swinging about
struck him and threw him from his
feet into the air. He struck the top
floor on his left side, rolled off and
fell to the ground below. He was pick
ed up in semi conscious condition
and was hurried to the city hospital.

TRADE is PROMISED
Col. Gardner Tells Commercial
Club of Philippines

Lieut.. Col. Cornelius Gardner, Of the
Twenty-first infantry, told the mem
berS of the Commercial club yesterday
an interesting story about the Philip
pines. Col. Gardner was a soldier in
the islands and after the warlike ma
tlves were finally subdued he was one
of the provincial governors.
More than 200 members were present
to hear the address Col Gardner de-
iivered. Later there was an informal
reception, the soldier from Fort Shell
ing meeting ST. PauFs business and
professional men.
There is no longer any tribal rela-
tions amongst the F'ilipinos," said Col.
Gardner. They now have their pro-
Vincial governments, schools and
churches and live life similar to that
of any other civilized people, For the
Filipino is civilized. Probably he has
not attained that degree of material
civilization that we have, but he is far
from the barbaric state.
Trade with the Philippines should be
fcstered and developed by American
merchants. The Filipino will be found
ready customer for our products He
will also be found an honest customer
and one who can be depended upon
But if we are to sell to the inhabit-
ants of the Philippines we must buy
from them. Before long the American
Islands in the far off Pacific will have
products to offer us, and a market for
those products should be found in
America"
Col. Gardner dwelt at length on the
customs and manners of the Filipinos
and in an entertaining way gave a
general idea of life in the far East. He
explained the government established
on the islands by the United States and
the school system. He also told of the
sanitary work done by the American
army.
