POULTRY POINTERS.
Suggested at Recent Gathering of
Corvallis Fanciers.

In view of this 1ocality's grow
ing Importance as poultry center
some encouragement is offered to
dealers in poultry supplies and to
inventors of conveuiences for poul-
try raisers.
Schemes to prevent chickens from
flying was under discussion Thurs
day. Many objections were offer
ed to the custom OF clipping the
wings. The man, in the expert
mental stages of his poultry exper-
fence, once unknowingly set hen
with eggs boiled for Easter Sunday
and wondered why so many prov
ed unfertile, suggested as means.
of preventing chickens from flying,
that hight but strong cord be
fastened at the joint of one wing.
passed under the body, and tied at
the point of the opposite wing.
However. before the merits of this
plan could be discussed, anotherwas
offered by a gentleman, who believes
in the strict application of science
to all methods. Said he. you
should take the chicken when it is
young and let the joint water out
of its wings by pricking, That, as
everybody knows. will stifen the
wing joints. aud, of course, prevent
them from flying Although this
plan was thought to be rather inhu-
name, the gathering neverthelessin-
dicated its approval.
Then the question of the best
means of preventing chickens from
scratching gardens was brought
up. The one which met the ap-
proval of those present is an inven-
ton, it is said, of Will Horning of
this city. It consists in attaching
a pointed drag to one of the chick
ems legs. tits hinged to band
about the leg. and in principle op.
crates much the same as the old
fashioned drag long ago attached
to the rear axle to prevent the wag-
on from running, back when the
team was stopped on hill. This
instrument allows the chicken to
bring its foot forward. but the
sharp point of the drag sticks into
ground and prevents the fowl from
making the damaging backward
stroke. If the chicken is 1eft-hand-
ed or right-handed, only one drag
is important, but if it can use both
feet with equal facility a drag on
each leg is necessary:

PASSED THE LIB.
One clergvman's Savage Rejoinder to
Another-could Not Agree on
Baptism.

AT an afternoon meeting in the
Methodist church the latter part of
last week occurred an incident that
was not down on the program. In
the presence of his. congregation
aud a number of other ministers.
DR., Driver passed the lie to Rev.
Handsaker, pastor of the local
Chris tan church. "You area liar,
thundersd the veteran preacher as
he glared back in fury at the yourg-
er man. sTheincident according toall
accounts was marked by dramatic
detail, and has, since been the oc-
casion OF much comment about
town.
The trouble arose over the diff
fere nee in the views of DR.. Driver
aud the Christian clergyman on the
subject Of baptism. In fact during
a series of meetings recently held
by Dr.. Dryer in ALBANY a spirit of
controversy is said to have been
aroused between him and the pas
tor of the Christian church in that
city. Among other things the con-
troversy led to challenge for a
public discussion of the subject,
but the debate OH some account
never happened. The incident is
believed to have been legacy, to a
certain degree of the bad blood ems
gendered in a town down the Will
lamette.
DR.. Drivers Corvallis meetings
began two weeks or more ago, and
in his first sermon there was a sar-
castle reference to the doctrines of
the Christian denomination respect
ing baptism. This and other refer
ences Of similar character are sup
posed to hsve reached the ears of
Rev. Handsaker, and in his own
pulpit the Sunday following there
was a quiet reference to the matter
of baptism. and spirited defense
of the Christian position. It's un-
derstood that DR.. Drivers discus
sion Of the subject of baptism was
at the request of a number of >pas-
to,s and laymen who wanted a de-
fence to attacks said to have been
made by Evangelist Wilson of the
Christian denomination in tent
meetings held in Corvallis two
years ago.
On the above afternoon it happen.
ed that Rev. Handsaker was among
the members of the congregation
nearly all the local ministers being
present. Shortly before the service
| ended, Rev. -Haadsaker asked
permission to say a few words. Per.
mission was granted by Paste,
Moore and after stating that DR..
Driver YVES not correctly represen.
ting the Christian position a pas.
sage of words ensued between the
two clergymen that soon assumed
a personal character. Rev
Handsaker finally stating thai
when challenged by the
pastor of the Christian church
in Albany to a, debate, DR.. Driver
had backed down and failed te
defend his position, "You are {
liar" was the vehement retort o
the aged preacher.
For few minutes there was
scene of much excitement. in which
several Of the ministers presen
spoke of the matter, but it soor
gave way to condition of peace
