800 acre egg ranch of John Mcdonald,
known as the ''Mile Square Poultry
Farm" This man keeps six thousand
laying hens. Fourteen miles from
Petaluma lies the M. Sartori poultry
farm consisting of Too acres where
more than ten thousand noisy, cack-
ling, singing hens make music and
money for their modest owner Near
this place is the residence Of William
Bassett who owns two large poultry
farms and keeps 5000 laying hens; this
man combines an egg ranch and broiler
plant; he has ten brooder houses in
which he cares for six thousand chicks.
In his incubator house is an incubator
that holds about 5000 eggs. From his
youngsters recently Mr.. Bassett sold
over 800 broi1ers-mostly cockere1s-
for 1915 per dozen. In Two Rock
Valley, eight miles from Petaluma, is
the 240 acre farm of C.. H. Purvine,
who also combines an egg ranch and
broi1er plant. Mr.. Purvine has one in
cubator house containing four brood
ers holding over one thousand eggs
each; in an adjoining house are two
incubators holding 1850 eggs each. Tt
is said that nine-tenths of the people
who settle near Peta1uma go into the
poultry business. Three miles out of
town is a small valley where is con-
gregated more than 10000 adult laying
hens in one square mile. Immediately
surrounding Petaluma are more than
100000 laying hens. During the year
1905 there were shipped from that
town $685., 061 dozens Of eggs and 90

close to seven million dollars of which
nearly two and half million dollars
worth were produced within twenty

Pure-Bred Hogs.

Without pure-bred hogs it is impos-
sible to build up a great, healthy re-
munerative swine breeding industry.
Breeding, feeding and selection have
established and will perpetuate GER
tain well-known breeds of hogs which
are all good and beneficial to any
country in which they are raised. It
is from these pure-bred herds that the
general farmer should select the boar
he needs in order to build up his own
stock to the market standard.
The breeder is the specialist who is
constantly striving to- hold and main
tain what others before him have gain
ed and to improve upon it if possible.
He is obliged to do things which the
general farmer cannot afford and has
not the time to- do for himself. The
breeder keeps records of the hogs bred
by him and he reports all he raises
and breeds to the record association Of
the pure breed with which he is
Identified
Breeders of hogs are in competition
one with another, for the purpose of
producing the healthiest, best-formed
stock in existence of their special
class. In the search for improvement
a swine breeder will pay another
breeder what may seem to be a fancy
price in order to obtain one animal
which he considers capable Of improv-
ing his own herd, and yet he will be
able to sell a farmer the boars the
farmer requires at very much less,
and such boars will serve the farmers
purpose equally as well.
The great and valuable breeds of
hogs are so well known and generally
appreciated by all concerned that it
is no longer a question of whether or
not a special breed is adapted to
certain locality and can be raised to

Many people have been specializing
as to what business Mr.. Ed Carmi-
chael would engage in in the future.
Mr.. Carmichael told the Star man yes
terday that he expected to engage ex-
tensively in the raising of fine stock,
mostly mules and horses, and would
give special time and attention to the
raising of mules for market Messrs.
Carmichael and Son have one of the

Springs run, and own great deal of
other valuable lands in the county,

advantage, or whether a certain in
dividual prefers one breed to another.
In looking up this subject with a
view of ascertaining what breeds of
hogs are especially adapted to the
south, we find that it is useless to at
tempt to pick out one breed of hogs
and specify it as the Southern hog, or
to even say that any breed Of hogs is
not adapted to the South All the
South over and over again, and all
have given satisfaction. This means
that the hogs have done we'll. It also
means that the country has done well
by having the hogs. We have investi-
gated the subject thoroughly with
view to ascertaining the facts. We
have gone into the country and have
seen the hogs in the fields and pens,
and we have gone into the markets
and have seen the hogs bought, sold
on their merits, and we see the we'll
bred hogs raised in the South selling
we'll in the South, and in any market
to which they are shipped. We have
correspondent with breeders all over
the South, and while they differ as to
which hog is best for the Southern
states, they all agree that hogs do we'll
if they are treated half right.
AS matter of fact, the best testi-
mony in regard to hog raising in the
South is the hog himself In 1909 the
London Company imported swine into
Virginia. They were English domestic
hogs, and to all intents and purposes
were unused to the American climate
and conditions, but it is recorded of
them that they increased so fast that
in 1927 the colony was overrun with
them, and that the Indians fattened
themselves on the hogs which had be-
come wild from running at large in
the woods. The Indians called these
hogs ''slow deer" and that is what
the Indians call them today. 1t is
certain that the Southern states are
suitable for swine raising, inasmuch
as the remnant of these wild hogs,
now called the razor-backs, can soon
be dOmesticated and bred back to the
high standard of the domestic hog by
use of boars of the improved breeds.
1t is also significant that the Bed

READY TO ARBITRATE.
Gradual Improvement In Coal Strike Condi-
tions Continues. y,

Arbitration is proposed by the anthracite.
miners, whose general scale committee held
another session with the representatives of
the operators in New York yesterday. The
idle pners ask that the Cancellation board
created by the strike commission act as ar
bitrators, with Judge George Gray of Della
ware or any person he may appoint, as
chairman and umpire. II the operators agree
to the plan and il is approved by con.
vention Of miners, operations in the hard
coal fields win be resumed at once. The
operators do not look with favor on the plan,
but will give their answer to the miners
next Monday.
The extent of the strike inaugurated April
l has been greatly lessened by the action of
the mine workers, who before adjourning at
indianapolis Saturday, authorized national
and district officers TO sign wage agreements
with any coal operator who would agree to
pay the scale OF 1908, or its equivalent for
period OF two years. Many operators have
made these agreements since work was sus.
pended in the anthracite mines Monday, and
work has been resumed in 20 per cent. of the
pittsburg Coal company's mines. Two con-
ferences have been held in New York this
week between the committees of the con-
tending factions. The operators desired
renewal of the award of the anthracite strike
commission Ior three years Dut tue miners
would agree for only one year with the pos
siblity of an embodiment in the award Of
some of their propositions.
President Roosevelt has been asked by
both sides to consider the matter Of APP
pointing commission to investigate the
wage scale Conditions in the soft coal
fields are improving. Dealers in many cities
in the country have raised the price of coal
from so cents to 81 per ton. The opera
tors say there is no excuse for this action.

not be said in praise of her beautiful

that Mrs. Rice is personally acquainted
with all the composers whose songs she

her perfectly sympathetic and under

audience was enthusiastic in praise of
her singing.

Justice Stafford Gives Labor Opinion.

In the district supreme court at Washing
ton, Friday Justice Wendell p Stafford, on
the petition of the Washington Typothetae,
granted temporary injunction against the
union printers of that city, who are on
strike for an eight-hour day, restraining
them from interfering in any way with the
non-union employees. The court however, re-
fused to issue an order regarding boycott
of the open shops, holding that there were
not sufficient grounds for the same. Justice
Stafford prefaced his decision with the fol-
lowing words: There is something more i'm
portant than fair wages, and that is the
right to work for any wages the workman is
willing to accept There is something more
important than an eighthour day, and that
is free day. Any enhancement Of wages,
any lessening of the hours of labor, any inn
provement in the condition of employment
would be too dearly bought by the surrender
Of the smallest fraction of individual liber-
ty.' Justice Stafford has been until recent
" resident Of St. Johnsbury, and resigned
from the Vermont supreme bench to accept
his present position.

burg, N Y, and Fireman John A. Fleming
of New Haven were thrown through the cab
