ARCHITECT D|CKEY'S
HOTEL CREATION

| OAKLAND, March 3.-The new
about $1,0O0,0O0, is beginning to tower
above the trees in the Berkeley foot
! hills and is assuming at least an air
| of completion that is attracting the
attention of every one who passes
within one or two miles of its location.
Architect c. w. Dickey of this city,
who drew the plans for the structure,
states that the hotel building Will COW
er an irregular space of the ground,
210 by 900 feet, and will contain $50
guest rooms. The total floor area in
the building will be six and one
quarter acres, while the other build
ings in the grounds will contain one
acre. There will be one mile of cor
ridors in the main building, a prone
made porch 456 feet long, $50 windows.
twenty miles of electric wire and ten
miles of pipe. The work is progress
ing at the rate of about 100000 feet Of
lumber per week. A complete plan
ing mill is established on the premises.
The hotel grounds, fourteen acres of
which have been under cultivation as
private estate for the past forty
years, are naturally beautiful, but
much is to be added to the surround
ings by the treatment of the unim-
proved ground to the south and west
Of the hotel. In this space win be To-
Gated the great stone entrance, flank
ed by a gate lodge on one side and
a railroad station on the other. The
driveway will lead directly toward the
hotel tower, giving a beautiful vista
until it divides, one road leading to the
carriage entrance in front of the tower
and the other leading to the automobile
entrance to the south and to the club
house.
The hotel building itself is designed
in the picturesque Elizabethan style
of architecture, and has been planned
to especially fit the contours of the
hill on which it stands. The Eliza
bethan tower will be an interesting
feature, and from it's summit one can
command panorama of the surround
ing country on all sides of the bay.
A searchlight mounted on this tower
will be able to light up the streets of
San Francisco.
The walls of the building will be of
stone, backed up with re-enforced con-
lath and rough cast cement plaster
gables, tower, etc.
The hotel is to be a complete insti-
tuition. The power plant will be
large one involving two 200 horse
power boilers, compound engines, with
direct connected electric dynamos, ele-
vator pumps, ammonia condensers for
ice machines, combined vacuum and
compressed air sweeping plant, etc.
There will be a large laundry equipped
with the most improved laundry ma
chinery The kitchen department will
contain every modern convenience and
device, such as dish-wash-
ing machines, silver burnishers, ice
crushers and cubers, three huge bake
ovens for bread, pastry and roasts,
many cold storage and rec boxes, and
the finest of ranges, broilers, steam
kettles, steam tables, etc.
There will be five elevators. including

necessary for the manufactures to

months to year in advance, in
order that he may be sure to have

Therefore, the manufacturer has
been obliged to place his orders
for 1908 consumption, and having
bought it has put the matter in
position where it looks as If the
advance in price must hold for at

considering everything it is

In sections where there is no
market demand for capons, there
is very little profit in handling
them.
The object in csponizing is to
secure both quality and size.
1t is claimed that age does not
impair capon the same as it does
a cockerel, excepting where bird
is kept longer than a year and a
half.
While being fattened poultry
should have access to grit, a lack
of which is apt to produce indi-
gestion. \
Weekly deliveries to retail Gus
toners of clean, fat, plump car
casses, is one of the secrets of sue
cess,
Capons must mature before they
can get much finish, and for that
reason should not be sold while
young.
Since caIons have to be kept for
a long time and ted generously,
feed will have to be cheap and

The egg beating habit is practi-
cally prevented by the use of trap

Practically, the hen is ma

An authority says if the egg is
placed on the side or large end,
the heavy yolk will settle to the
bottom and come in contact with
the she'll, which admits tae air.
If it is placed On the small end, it
will always haye a layer of white

V. M. Couch says in order for
hen of certain weight to,produce
an egg of a certain size or weight,
she must have just enough whole
come food. Her system must not
be overtaxed by too much or
starved by too little.
AS rule, extraordinary laying
hens, particularly in their second
year, will lay right up to the end
of autumn or beginning of winter,
and then molt says Morgan Bates.
Such hens require little extra

- disheveled prisoner, heavily
handcuffed and despatched
with the slushy snow of thawing
March day, stepped upon the platform,
closely followed by Sheriff Peterson.
He dropped down upon the baggage
truck in the STOPPING posture necessitat-
ed by the irons and looked duly out
across the whitened pastures to the riv-
er, whose wet ice glistened in the sun.
The officer stood few feet behind
him, watching his slightest movement.
Gee! They've caught AL Brockw A
score of collarless loafers came pouring
out of the waiting room from about the
leprous stove and stared in open mouth
ed wonder at the man on the truck.
Had the redoubtable sheriff appeared
with chained lion they could not have
been more fascinated, more awed.
ut was them bloodhounds that done
1t. They tracked him forty mile through

They ventured little nearer.
HE was in our barn for more IAN a

The figure on the truck stirred, and
the crowd fell back.

ed. He can't hurt you"
Not much! He smashed Joe Porter
to jelly with the handouts ON the last
time they took him."
A whistle screeched somewhere be-
hind an orchard. the escaping steam
shot up above the trees, and as the
station master hurried out with
mail sack and red flag the prisoner
rose stifiy and the sheriff led him
down the platform.
The train wheezed and clanked to
standstill, and the two men climbed
on at the rear. Then, like fash,

hand (two fingers and strip of the
hand had been blown away by the

Growing Old.

Age will creep on to any one as
the years go by, and yet growing
old is much like habit. Mind,
the active manifestation of the
spirit in man, has wonderful In
! fiuence over matter. "As man
thinketh in his mind 80 is he, "
said the wisest man. If we in
dulge in the thought that we are
getting old and yield to that men
tai impression, we shall soon feel
the aches and pains we understand
belong to age, and our shoulders
will stoop with the weight of
years; but if we refuse to recog-
nize every little pain as the work
of time, keep up buoyant spirit,
maintain cheerfulness through the
cares and worries of life, light up
our faces with smiles instead of
darkening them with fcrebodings,
and refuse to count our years ex-
cept to gain wisdom from them
we may almost defy the ravages of
time. Wrinkles cannot bear to be
laughed at, and they keep away
from the faces of those who do not
care for them much longer than
from the faces of those who are
constantly watching for them and
dreading them. We often meet
old people who seem young and
young people who look old, and
the difference is in the tempera-
ment and thought of the perso n.
The years will pass away, and
time may leave its mark, and yet
we may refuse to grow old.

UPON THE BANK.
now, moving swiftly away ON de-
tached piece of ice. The cakes had
thinned until the black water showed
everywhere between them, and the dan.
ger was greater than ever before, but
he gathered her into his arms and stag
gered on.
A lane of water ten rods wide opened
before him, and he could go no farther
unless he swan. Drawing her arm
about his neck, he took her sleeve be-
tween his teeth and plunged in. The
sleeve gave way, and he closed his
teeth upon her wrist. The ice they at
last reached proved rotten, breaking
under his weight again and again FL
ing his manacled wrist about hub,
drew her after him.
Shaking from his icy bath like one in
an ague fit, he was STOPPING to pick up
his burden for the final dash, when sud
denly he paused and looked across the
clashing, grinding blocks to the shore.
Yes, it was Bob Peterson running along
about him like a hunted animal brought
to bay. Bob Peterson would have no
mercy on him, even if he had saved his
wife's life, TO go on meant ball and
chain and that horrible stone trap
Yonder was the precipice. All he had
to do was 10 sit still and let the swift
current have its way To allow her to
drift over with him before her hus-
bands very eyes would be a crowning
revenge upon the man who had hunted
him so mercilessly. Ah, it was just
past that headand there where she had
cried TO him in her childish voice from
the drifting boat. For Il moment he
listened again to that cry as it rang in
his ears across the years. Then, with
set face, he snatched her up and hur-
ried on, ut length sinking, exhausted,
with his burden upon the bank not ten
rods above the brink of the falls.
THANK God" exclaimed the sheriff
fervently as he bent above his still
unconscious wife. Then his eyes en-
rescued her.
"Well, put on the irons There's no
more fight left in me-" gasped the
PROSTATE man defiantly, holding out
his lacerated hands.
For answer the sheriff produced a
long blue envelope. PITY didn't get

smile, handing the envelope to his
companion.

signed by the lieutenant governor of
the province, then slowly folded 1t

toward his wife. "She wouldn't rest

The Implement Situation.

Dealers in Agricultural imple-
ments, farm wagons, manure
spreaders and other kindred lines
will soon be called upon to inform
their customers of an advance in
price. In fact, many manufact-
ures have already made an ad-
vance and the consumer may as
we'll prepare for it, as it is newt
able.
Implement manufactures have
purchased for their work over one
hundred thousand tons of iron
and steel sbars and shapes. The
price paid for next years deliver
les is about 10 per cent. higher
than the contracts that were made
a year ago. Pig iron, cold rolled
shafting, bolts, nuts, washers,
screws, and in fact, almost every
item going into the manufacture
of the implement line have ad-
vanced from 10 to 15 per cent. for
1908 deliveries. Lumber, particu-
larly oak and hickory, have ad-
vanced ste adily in price for the
last few years. The average ad-
vance for 1908 over 1907 will not
be far from $40 per thousand feet.
Wagon rims and spokes have ad-
vanced for 1908 from 10 to 20 per
cent
Manufacturers in gen eral feel
that they are entitled to better
prices; III fact, it is impossible
for the manufacturers to continue
selling their product any like The
present prices. Implements have
not kept pace with the advance in
raw material. The high prices of
raw material and the low prices
that implements have been sold
for have put the manufacturer
where he has not enjoyed any part
of the general prosperity of the
country. The raw material man
and the consumer have reaped the
full benefit.
The farmer has enjoyed the
highest figure he has ever secured
for his stock in trade. In these
times of prosperity, when all the
farm products are selling at high
prices, it is necessary that the
farmer should have up TO date
machinery SO he may reduce the
cost of production to a minimum
and raise the largest crops pos
slble. The farmer who buys an
implement in the latter part OF
1907 and during 1908 at an ad-
vance of from 10 to 10 per cent.
may rest assured that the advance
is Legitimate.
There appears to be no prospect
Of any slump in themarket ON raw
