SCORES THE ATTORNEY

Honest men who 90 upon an errand
of duty, called by the proper authori
ties, should not be attacked for giving
a recital according to their honest
judgment of the evidence. Not cent
was used in that jury to influence a
vote, in my opinion. And Brown is de-
cidedly unfair when he besmfrches or
attempts to blacken a good name with
out any further evidence than informa-
tion he gets from a nameless source.
He should be compelled to make good
or retract, and. for one, ! shall try TO
see that he does retract.
Swain tried to talk with Brown at
his Office today, but the deputy dis
trict attorney refused to see him.
Brown, however. did grant an inter-
view to Juror Dryden, who appeared
at the courthouse, lachrymose and ap-
parently overburdened with remorse

you to shake hands with me. / know
my action in voting not guilty was not
right, and / condemn myself for IT.

Th. Food for pouItry in Winner.

Much time and money have been spent in
what seems an almost vain endeavor-to make
hens produce eggs in cold weather. 1t re-
quires but little experience with poultry to
learn the fact that, under ordinary circum-
stances, hens cannot produce as many eggs in
winter as in summer. Summer is the nat
ural time for the laying of eggs, and in order
to increase winter production there must be
reproduced for the fowls as nearly q, possible
conditions that exist in summer. Walter Z.
Crawford Of North Vassalboro, Ne, has aP-
Parently tried to do this, so far as feeding his
fowls Is concerned. Here is a letter from
him; pages Perfected Poultry Food !;
