Gentle Reminders.

Ed. Journal: l wonder how many
people know that it is against the
law to expectorate on the sidewalk.
Apparently they are very few that
know of such n law, at any rate there
seems to be Q general disregard of it.
l wonder why the police force of the
city do not remind some of these nasty
law-breakers in such a way that they
would have no trouble to keep it in
mind for some considerable time. An
occasional arrest would not only make
quite a lasting impression upon the
parties caught in the act, but would
have a wholesome effect upon those
violators who were just as guilty, but
were so fortunate as to not get caught
This law has the sympathy of all de-
cent people, and the officers would GER
tainly be supported by public senti-
ment. l wonder why they do not en-
force this most reasonable law; l won
der if Mr.. Cornelius will enforce this
law, and the law regulating bicycles
the anne as the present officers have
Chat is not enforce them at ally. ]
wonder why those city editors who are
50 much interested in the beauty,
healthfulness of u city, do not keep
these laws standing in their papers, so
that all people may see them, and keep
them from being forgotten9 Why don't
these editors who are interested so
much in these matters call the attention

walks at times and in places are alb
s%olutely filthy and disgusting on ac-
count of this filthy, and those people
who have no sense of decency along
these lines should be taken before our
city recorder for a much-needed lee
ture upon decency.
The bicycle ordinances also, should
be, and would be respected, if the Off
All bicycle riders who wish the largest
possible privilege for the wheel are

be enforced. 1 wonder why the Off

the bicycle should have, and will con-
tend for the use of the walks. The
paving Of the streets would, for all
time, settle the bicycle question. Ham.
mond, Indiana, has passed an ordinance
f%orbidding the splitting in the streets
or in the opera house. ' wonder if it
will be enforced like Salem has en-.
forced her sidewalk splitting ordinance?
1 wonder why the city does not have
some little weather-proof cards printed
and pasted inc~onspicuous places, mott
flying the public that it is against the
law to spit on the sidewalks. With
these reminders and an occasional ar
rest, you would soon notice a wonder
full improvement along these lines.
l don't want to be harsh, but !
would like to see those people who have
no more sense of decency than to spit
on the walks either cured or sent to
the penitentiary for life.

turkeys in the state of Rhode Island. Unquestionably some of the best mar ket turkeys produced in the world have been sent out of Rhode Island. The market statistics show that there has been an active demand for turkeys for many years past The records of the winter of 1903-04 perhaps show the highest prices that have ever been paid for the turkey crop, which seems to have been considerably less in propor- ton to the demand than for several years past The wholesale prices paid in the western states ranged from 10 to 15 cents pound dressed, with the head. feet and entrails. The average wholesale price as recorded In New York for the past ten years has ranged from s to % cents pound. Boston shows a valuation higher than this in a few instances only. and the Chicago market has recorded from 6 to IS cents
 Rhode Island turkeys sold at retail in the markets of New York city and Boston during the Thanksgiving and
 
 as high as 3S and 40 cents a pound. while other turkeys could be bought at 20 to 9 cents.
 There Is no other kind of live stock. according to MT. McGrew, that will return so large a profit to the success full producer as will poultry, and no kind of poultry is more profitable than turkeys when properly handled. The fact that turkeys will, from the time they are six weeks old until winter sets In. gain the greater part of their entire living from bugs, grassheppers and waste grain that they pick up in their wanderings over the range assures their existence through this period with little cost to the owner Turkeys are now used not only for roasting, but to an increasing extent for cold cuts and salads. and large numbers of late matched poults are used for broilers in the large cities.
 The bronze turkey holds the post of honor in varieties. The Narra gansetts
