Lottery Schemers Admit Guilt.
BY pleading guilty in the federal
court to charges of using the mails
in the conduct of lottery scheme,
John F. Wheatley and George H.
Witch Of Keokuk prevented the
authorities from making their dia-
mond and macintosh gift scheme a
test case. 1t is said that hundreds Of
firms throughout the country are car
rying on operations exactly like the
Keol1uk firm.
Had Whea'tley and Witch not
pleaded guilty their case would have
been the first one Of the kind bro ught
ITO trial since the enactment of the
present anti-lottery law. The gov
eminent authorities will probably
take action against other concerns
engaged in a similar business.
Messrs. Wheatley and Witch claim
that they did not knowingly violate
the law and as evidence of this they
point to the fact that they did not
try to conceal the operation of their
business from the postoffice inspector,
who investigated 1t some time ago.

Result of Wearing High ColIarI.

That high collars tend to produc'
nervous headaches among both men
and women is TIE most recent dlscoV-
cry of a we'll known Viennese physlc-
ian. Quite accidentally the doctor
attention was directed to the very
tight style of collar worn by patient
who was always complaining OF he2G'
aches and giddiness. The collar was
laid aside, thus removing the compress
SIGN of the neck, and the patients
headaches and giddiness disappeared.
Struck by this result the doctor palc
particular attention to the kind OF col
lars worn by his headache patients,
and in very many instances the
change to lower and easier-itting col
lars brought immediate relief. In the
case of women wearing high stiff neck
bands it was found that doing away
with these had a similarly beneficial
result The doctor declares that no
body with any tendency to headache
should wear high collars.

charcoal, grit, etc., are placed in them.
If all the food were fed in this manner
in winter some of the fowls would not
secure sufficient exercise and on that
account all whole and cracked grains
are fed In deep litter of straw, hay
or leaves, on the floor of the pens or
In the scratching sheds. At this sea-
son the care-taker simply scatters the
grain at intervals and fills the hop
pers where they require it. The fowls
obtain most of their nourishment from
the grain which is scattered on the
litter, for they prefer that to the dry
mash as rule, but to balance their
ration they select the beef scraps,
bran. etc., from the hopper whenever
their appetites demand it.
Nature, says The Farmer, never in
tended that birds or domesticated
fowls should crowd their crops full
once or twice day with hot damp
mash. The opponents of the dry-feed
system claim that their system is
nearer nature and the results prove
that there is good foundation for this

Slowly but surely the work of mix

dropped from the, poultrymans rou-
tine. In it's place the fowls receive
the ground grains, beef scraps, etc.,
which usually constitute the body of
this mash, mixed dry and fed in
troughs or hoppers. This method Of
feeding began to be exploited in New
England not much more than half a
decade ago, where it proved success
full and has gradually worked it's way
westward. Now dry feeding is the
method on a large per cent. of the
practical poultry farms where the
problem is to get the most income for
the least outlay.
In summer the growing chick not
only has the ingredients of the mash
constantly within reach, but also the
