Tie Fire Chief

The trial Of John Condry, fire

From this Condry appealed
The hearing Of the evidence con-
sumed the day and the arguments
VIII not be completed until some
fine tomorrow. There was but
few sensational features about the
trial, probably the greatest being,
when Lulu Medsker on cross exam
ination refused to answer questions
put BY Mr.. Harmer. The tilt was
lively one and Mayor Harmer in
4 helpless manner appealed to Judge
Lynch for help, but the Judge IN
formed him that he himself was just

Be to send her back to jail, where
she had Just come from AS she
left the witness stand she told Mr..
Harmer she was going back to
where he ought to be, which remark
provoked considerable ripple OF
amusement, which called forth vig-
Orous rapping BY the sheriff for or
der.
The defense's case is that Lnlr
Medsker wrote note to Condry the
fpvening Of the raid, informing him
hat she was boxing her household
Gods for storage and requesting the
loan Of money to pay the storage
IN response to, this note he finally
went 70 her home, but INDUCED n
no improper act.
At the opening of the trial the
defense claimed the mayor exceeded
his authority, when he attempted
to punish Condry. They asserted
that the ordinance of the city in re-
gard to offenses of this kind is not
Constitutional and that the city by
its charter has no power or author
ity for making and enforcing such
an ordinance. Judge Lynch, how
ever. overruled their contention AID
ordered the trial to proceed.

the jury found him guilty shortly

In the Plymouth Rock and Wyandotte

Poultry Growing North and West.
T, r. McGREW.


The chief center of poultry growing
upon the farms and by small establish
ments devoted exclusively to the pro-
ducing of eggs and poultry for market,
is located in that portion Of the coun-
try now called the North and West, in
which we must include Missouri, Kan.
sas and the great Northwest.
It is not usually known that Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Kansas are the great
est producers of poultry of all kinds,
including waterfowl, and that Michi-
gan and Wisconsin are becoming the
greatest of all gOOse-prOducing sections
of the country.
Upon the vast wheat fields of the
Northwest are grown thousands upon
thousands of young fowls that are
hatched and cared for with reference
to having them of the proper size for
ranging over the wheat fields as soon
as the harvest Is in, and are later
gathered up by the pur ,hasers Of the
great poultry-killing establishments Of
Kansas City and other centers. These
young fowls are taken away and
shipped to the killing Races prior to
the beginning Of the cold rigid weather
of the North, only leaving for the care
of the farmers during the winter
months a sufficient number to produce
eggs for the next summers crop.
Wisconsin and Michigan produce
large numbers of geese, grown for
their feathers, and then shipped away
to the Eastern States, where they are
fattened and sold to the City markets.
Missouri and Kansas have become
great egg producing centers of the West.
1t is claimed that more egss and
more dressed poultry are shipped from
some of the gathering stations of Mis-
souri, than from any otter locality in
this country. Iowa has for many
years ranked among the foremost
states in the producing of both eggs
and market poultry of kinds.
The last census figures for Iowa are
a surprise to many Of those best in
formed on poultry matters. More
ducks were reported as being grown
and shipped to market out Of that
State alone than had been credited to
