Great Scarcity Of Turkeys

These are days Of mourning in the
barnyards, and the old hen, who has
almost outllved her usefulness In an
egg way, but Is not yet too tough to
kill, sits moping and mourning the de-
mise Of lot Of healthy youngsters.

or more of her coal bin than she does
a parboiled stew or bake.
These surely are perilous times for
the feathered fiocks, for the Thanks
giving and holiday trade Is demanding
an exceptional supply of chickens. Only
the rich can afford turkey for a
Thanksgiving dinner this year, and It
begins to look az tho they couldn't
be purchased at any price.
Swift & Co. of this city are working
might and day in kilMng, and each week
are averaging q kill OF 10000 pounds,
which means a slaughter OF between
1000 and 5000 birds Last year, at
the same time. the firm was killing
only between $4,000 and 10000. The
demand Is heavier in the chicken line
this year. and fortunately there is more
stock to be had. The increased de-
1nand IL due to the absence Of turkeys.
At least two-thirls Of each weeks kill
are springeEs.
While the poultry packing firms
thruout the country are buying heavier
to supply the trade this fall, they are
paying just as high prices al they did
last year at this time. Springers are
bringing cents, hens s n, and roostess
8 cents per pound.
Among the commission men there
are no turkeys to be had. Few have
been raised in the country, and local
butchers are gohbling UP every avail
able bird at several cents above the
market price.
In the ducks and geese line there Is
but little doing. as the market Is all
ways better later In the season, and
the stock is also In better shape.
The poultry that is being packed in
this city by Swift & Co goes all over
the United States, and much OF 1t is
prepared for export to London and
Liverpool, and will be eaten on the
embellishments Tables for Christmas and
New Years dinners.

Mrs. Watsrbury's Miniatures.

The Sacramento, Cal, Union de-
votes space to an art criticism OF an
exhibition shown by Mrs. Laura Pra-
Their Waterbury Of that city, wife Of a
former MarshaNtowul boy, Guy w.
Waterbury. Mrs. Waterbury has done
some very clever work In miniatures
on ivory, and the Union says Of her
work:
MRS. Laura Prather Waterbury Of
this city makes, on the second floor
Of the building Of the John Breuner
company her first exhibition here Of
her miniature painting upon ivory. 1t
is not large, but fully testif1es to the
high merit OF the artist.
Miniature painting had its birth
among the Greeks and became more
popular in the Fourth and Fifth CEN
turtles. It has never suffered decline
nor lost its place az q distinctive arr.
Mrs. waterbsify's work is notable
for ite ,tIueness; and no art IL high
that falls in this regard. Her style
~ graceful and Is especially distin-
guished by the cfoseness with which
she has approached perfection in pro-
ducing flesh tints. There Is a tender
and luminous delicacy OF polish in 1t
all, wtth avoidance Of strong lights
and shadows. In depicting express
sion she has been very successful, and
In producing the likeness her work is
haultless. In short, because she Is,
true she Is artistic and her painting,
while delicate, is strong and speaking.
Mrs. Waterbury is not too much moved
by her imagination, does not permit
the temptation to highly finish or
over-color, to obstruct her view OF
truth; nor Is she conventional. but
paints evidently from original co1Dcep-
lions Of methods to be employed to
express the true.
'-The exhibition is one illustrative OF
conscience. faithfulnese and refined
taste and Of extreme delicacy Of touch
and exquisite penciling.
The miniatures will be shown only
today. Next week they will be taken
to San francisco for exhibition by the
San Francisco Art Association, which
receives them as loan for the pur-
pose Of public view"

Two weeks more Of good weather

corn crop OF this county picked. accord
ing to reliable farmers living in diff
ferent parts Of the county. The farm
ers are taking advantage of every good
day, some Of them not passing up
Sundays, in order to get the corn out
Of the way Of winter. 1t is hard prop
osition to get much OF the corn that
is badly down, and the work is neces-
sarily slow A hard snow, just at pres

cry farmer who has corn down. While
the bulk will be out of the way in an
other fortnight, there will be some
stragglers. as is always the case, who
will be caught with corn in the field,
down and unpicked.

i Total Observation-Disclosures. $55. 10000
The additions that the board has
made in Its figures, as compared to the
recommendations of the commandant,
are $500 to the coal house; $1,000 to
the women's dormitory; $500 for tho
mangie, and $500 for the Grand Army
hall. The board also makes the rec
ommendation Of $1,000 for fire protec-
ton, which the commandant had not
specified, intending to improve the fire
protection system in the appropriation
he had asked for the reservoir and con-
nection with the oitY water system.
Change in Law Recommended.
The board Of control, in its report,
has recommended. q change In the law
that will allow the admission OF SOL
diers wives who have been deserted
without. their fault, and who have not
been divorced. Another change had
Boon talked Of, relative to the admis-
sion of veterans drawing upwards OF
SIC pension. Under the present law
4 veteran d.awing SIS per month PEN
sion can not enter the Home excepting
az a hospital patient. There are many
worthy veterans who would like to en-
ter the institution, but who are de-
barred because Of their pension money,
vet their allowances are insufficient to
keep them properly outside the Home
The change contemplated was to have
such veterans pay over to the state
all in excess of certain amount, to
be decided on, and enjoy the same
privileges as those receiving lesser per-
sions No recommendation Of this kind
lis made, however.

control including the recomrnenda-
lions OF appropriations for the various
state Institutions, was filed with Gov
ernor Cu1nmins at Des Moines We'd
nesday afternoon. From comparison
of the figures of Commandment Horizons
report it will he seen that the board
has cut down Commandant Horizons
recommendations $16,400. The board
has added to several amounts making
up the commandant's report but has cut
out the hospital addition and library
building, two OF the principal Improve
ments asked in the commandments re-
port.
The addition to the hospital, which
is so very much needed, Is the worst
omission in the recomme ndations. As
the veterans grow older additional
hospital room Is needed, as has been
evidenced in the last few years. ADJ
dition after addition has been built to
what was once the hospital, and still
there is not enough room to accom-
modate the patients, and many who
ought to be receiving hospital treat
ment are necessarily treated In quar-
ters Commandment Horton asked for
an appropriation Of $50, 900 for the hos
pital additions. 4
Another cut ds in the library build
ing, for which the commandment had
asked for an $4,000 appropriation. A
great many Of the soldiers would en-
joy the privileges OF a reading room
and library, and there is no place in
the institution that is suitable. The
commandments recomrne ndation was to
make the second story Of the library
building into, apartments for married
employees OF the institution. The mar
ried men are among the better en-
ployes of the Home, and there is no
good place to afford them quarters
without apartments OF some kind, such
as he had recommended
While the board makes two severe
cuts amounting to $4,000, 1t has add
ed to the commentaries figures in GER
tain instances, so that the actual cut
from Commandant Horizons figures Is
only $16,400. The recommendatio OF
the board to the legislature, are as fol-
lows:

To Stop Corporal Punishment.

Superintendent Cooley has issued a
circular 10 1.-The Chicago public school
principals, which he hopes, will put a
stop to corporal punishment. The at
tention of the principals is called to the
rules which provide that "no corporal
punishment of any kind shall be inflict-
ed in any Of the schools of the CITY,"
Superintendent Cooley says further
"This prohibition is not limited merely
to the principals and teachers, but it is
absolute. Complaint has been made
that in some schools principals call in
the parents and permit, and in many
cases request that they iDfiict corporal
punishment upon their children. This
is distinct violation, both of the letter
and of the spirit of the rule, and must
not be permitted. No person, whether
connected with the school system or not;
should be permitted to infict corporal
punishment on pupil in any public
school of Chicago"
