This dry foot disease that kills so
many chickens is caused by dirty con-
ditions of yard, coop or barn-lot.
The creepers or timber neck needs

ed in the food, while the sprawlerS in
the young chicks results from damp
ness, musty quarters, old feed, given
too abundantly and too often. My
method is to feed early in the morn
ing and turn the chickens out to
scratch. They will never allow hens
to sit around the doors and mess up
the porches and yard. They are
lazy fowls and will not only try your
patience. but prove burden as long

EVELYN THAWS CHILDHOOD
Sweet Voice Won First Triumph at
Age Of Five in Church Service.

.TARENTUd. Pa, Feb. 11.--Here In
the town OF her birth Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw is remembered by many as a
sweet faced child OF only a few years
ago, and they can scarcely believe that
now she is the central figure In trag-
edy that attracts the attention OF the
worlt.
Evelyn's father, Winfield Scott Nes-
bit was born and reared on a farm
about two miles from Tarentum, and
during his young manhood lived with
HIS parents IN East Tenth avenue. He
married Evelyn Florence Mckenzie, OF
Allegheny, on February 5, 1884, the Rev
James A. Ballantyne, now deceased.
but then pastor OF the Tarentum Meth
odist Episcopal Church, and a former
classmate OF Mr.. Neshit at Allegheny
College. Meadville, officiating.
shortly after their marriage Mr. and
Mrs. Nesbit moved 10 Tarentum and
made their home in house in Lock
street. now owned by Hugh Scott. Here
Evelyn was born. A few months later
Mr.. Nesbit built the house In Lock
street now owned by Postmaster Ready
and the family lived there until 1892,
when they moved to Allegheny. In this
second Lock street house Howard Nes-
bit was born, on February 2s, 1856.
Mrs. Nesbit had the reputation Of be-
ing a careful mother, a kind neighbor
and a generous friend.
Evelyn was a particularly pretty and
attractive child. very quiet. somewhat
shy, who did not make friends, but ex-
tremely loyal TO those who gained her
confidence. She had a remarkably
sweet voice. Her first public appear
ance was at the age OF 5 years, at
memorial service held in the Methodist
Episcopal Church for those members
OF the congregation who had died dur
ing the year. A resident who remem-
bers the service says:
in the midst Of the solemn hush OF
the service came the sweet voice OF

voice which viii never be forgotten, and
which could be distinctly heard over
the large auditorium, came the words
We are going down the valley, one by

moved to tears. Softly, sweetly, but

song. It was a splendid triumph for
