st. Johnsbury, April 10-For the first
time in 30 years passenger has been
killed on the st. Johnsbuy & Lake
Champlain railroad in the worst wreck in
this section of the State for as many
years. The mail train westbound, due
at Hardwick at Z 25 this morning, left
the track about two miles east of Hard
wick, the combination car and passenger
car sliding down a 25-foot enbankment
almost into the Lamoille river.
The train was in charge of Engineer
Frank II. Miner, Fireman Charles John
son and Conductor Charles Ranney, all
of st. Johnsbury, with o. S. Cogswell
baggagemaster, George Campbell, express
agent, and Prentice Carleton, mail clerk
While rounding sharp curve at the
usual speed, it is supposed that a rail
spread as the two cars were derailed, the
combination car dragging the tender
down the steep incline. The engine
stayed on the rail and Fireman Johnson
walked to Hardwick and wired the news
to St Johnsbury and from that place the
wreck train was quickly started with
doctors. The coupling pin between the
two cars broke instantly and the passen-
ger car with II passengers and COnduc-
tor Ranney plunged down the embank-
ment. Turning completely over it
stopped at the waters edge. The COM
bination car, containing six passengers
besides the crew, tipped over on its side
and stopped half way down the embank
ment.
WILLIAM S. BAILEY KILLED.
William S. Bailey of Hardwick, was
riding in this car with his son, Ralph a
student at Hardwick Academy, and was
instantly killed. AS the car tipped over
he was thrown against the lamps and
either bled to death or was killed by the
conclusion. His son was slightly bruised.
Mr.. Bailey was at one time famous horse
breeder owning 10.years ago Lambert B.,
great Morgan trotter, and Helen NJ,
once the two -year.old champion of New
England. He leaves a wife and three
children.
Conductor Ranney, the oldest conduc
tor in service on the road and who has
been on this line since it was first
started, over 80 years ago as part of
the old Portland & Ogdensburgh rail-
road, was thrown against the car seat
and severely bruised above the hips. A
careful examination shows no bones

Reasons Which May Cause Hens to
Acquire the Habit.


A great source of annoyance in the
poultry yard is the habit that birds
sometimes acquire of plucking the
feathers out of one another and eat.

feathers from each other until they

Whether the fowls are intended for
the show pen, for the table purposes,
or for egg production, feather eating
is a most unpleasant practice to con-
tend with. One bird will learn this

lated nature; nsufficiency Of ami
NAL food; an inadequate supply Of
sulphurous food; thirst; want of oc-
cupation-all these and many others
are among the supposed causes.
Where the poultry in small yards
have been fed with too stimulating a
diet. the blood becomes overheated
and irritation ensues; consequently
the bird picks itself to secure relief,
and the practice travels to the other
fowls. Want of sulphur is a very
usual cause of this bad habit, for
sulphur enters largely into the com
position Of feathers. When they have
free range, fowls obtain a quantity
Of sulphur from weeds and other
vegetable food, particularly from the
seeds of plants, also from beetles and
other insects, which they find in their
wanderings; but poultry in confine
ment are debarred from this.
Another likely inducement to feath.
er eating is want of occupation. When
cooped up in close quarters the birds
have little to do after they have had
their meals. They sit huddled up
close together and for amusement
they peck at one another's plumage
until they acquire taste for feath.

from the others and fed on cooling
diet, with a good allowance of green
food. When there is feather eating
It is well to give the fowls some sui

FOWLS WILL SCRATCH.

Egg Basket.

The advice Is often given to make

advice. the fowls will scratch of their

tunity of working in the litter-no
compulsion Is necessary; 1t 10 their

A hen never seems so contented as
when hunting among leaves or In lit
ter for any fine grain that has been
scattered there, and her song of Joy
Is sufficient token Of her appreciation
OF the exercise thus provided.
BY the way. experiments and ex.
perience have shown that the active
hen Is the one that fills the egg bas-
ket. Don't waste .time trying to

In the more northern sections Of

THE POULTRY YARD.

In her second year a hen Is more
profitable than at any other time, and
1t Is then they make the best breed

Flat perches are more comfortable
than the round ones. The latter also
cause crooked breast bones In grow

In building perches in the poultry
house, see that they are far enough
from windows and doors to be out OF

Any farmer who has a large orchard
