TIE RAILROAD SIDE.

The freight car shortage. which is
SO troubling the country and Is az
itating Congress and the administra-
ton. Is by no means thing for
which the railroads are alone to
balmc. n Is held by some of the
prominent railway men of the coun-
try, gathered I'm New York last week
that the trouble rests more with tho
shippers and consignces than with
the railroads. and least OF all Is It
blamable on the lrger trunk lines
The purchaser orders from the con
signce, say. % cars OF products or
shipments covering weeks of time
The shipper. anxious to make sure Of
his sale puts i'm his requisition for
25 cars, holds these until he can
load, and ships the whole % often
within n week or two As n result.
the consigncc, who is overwhelmed
with goods to be taken care OF or
disposed OF. has TO take advantage Of
the situation as best he may. by pay
ment OF demurrage or otherwise:
while the railway company at the
receiving point, anxious to oblige a
large patron. holds these cars for
him even on the per diem penalty
Thus the freight cars are turned into
temporary storage houses for the
benefit OF shippers who simply serve
their own selfish interests regardless
of the convenience OF the general
public. Meanwhile the railways are
held responsible for car shortage and
unequal distribution. Josh Billings

THE PATRICK CASE.

The Now York World says con
corning the Patrick case:-
Doubts have arisen of such rea-
sonable nature as to divide the court
of appeals four to three on questions
not of law, but of fact"
Exactly the reverse of that is
the truth. The division was wholly
and solely on questions of law That
should make the governor more in
tent on committing the convict's SEN
tence to imprisonment for life than
any other consideration could do.
Doubts as to correctness Of law i'm

Patrick Correctness of trial is n vital

more Importance than Patrick. but
the imprisonment instead of the ex-
ecution of Patrick is Importance to

should be committed.

that man was incorrectly tried. and

How the Poultry Raiser Can Keep His

The successful poultry raiser has
learned how to keep out mites. 1t
may we'll be doubted II any successful
poultry raiser can be found whose
houses are teeming with mites.
Among the ways of keeping off the
mites are the following:
Have a house that is light and
large enough for the flock. and see

Have the roosts. nests, dropping
boards and all fixtures removable, so

Hay for Poultry.

The suggestion that hay makes a
good winter food for poultry would
have been ridiculed few years ago,
but experiments have proved that
clover hay Is now almost a necessary
portion OF a hens cold weather diet.
Glover hay for fowls should be cut
very fine, not over half an inch in
length, steamed and scalded and fed
once a day, A small quantity of corn
meal and bran sprinkled over the cut
hay will improve 1t. One reason clover
IS such an excellent food FOR hens Is
that II Is rich in lime, substance the
hens require in providing the shells
for eggs. II Is about equal to corr
as a flesh producer and contains near
ly 80 times as much lime. It Is plenti
full on all farms and requires but little
time in preparation. After the greer
food is gone it will keep the hens II
laying condition and increase the pro
duction Of eggs.

Our Domestic Turkey.

While there are differences of opin-
ion regarding the origin of our domes-
tic turkey, II is currently believed that
It came directly from the wild turkey
81 the United States and Canada. One
writer expresses the opinion that the
original variety imported into Eng
land in 1920 came from variety that
formerly existed in the West Indies
and was afterwards exterminated by
the natives This is guesswork. There
Is apparently no good reason for go
ing. out of the way to hunt for any
other origin than that currently ac-
cepted. What Is known as the domes
tic turkey crosses freely with the wild
variety. thus establishing a close rela
tionship as having existed in the past
