FOR CHICKENS
Thief Gets Nine Fowls, B'lt'
Loses His Wad of 5000
In Doing So.

Ottumwa, Ia, Oct. 10.-An OF
tumWa woman has received for nine
of. the most extraordinary chickens a
little over $500. The involuntary
purchaser thought he was getting
them at bargain when he carried
them off, for he had not figured on
paying a cent for them, but now
that he found that they have cost
him $100 each. he is keeping beauti-
fully in the dark, and not boasting
of his deal.
A few days ago a woman living in
East Ottumwa missed two chickens.
and the following night three more
were stolen. Two days later.
when she went to feed her flock, she
found that the last four had been re-
moved.
However, near by the woman
found pOcketbook containing a
little over 5000 in currency. Here
was ample pay for her chickens, and
she said nothing, but kept the
money. Later the same day she was
visited by a strange man in quest OF
chickens. She explained that she
had just sold her nine for a good
price.
Then the man turned the conver.
sation along the lines of caring foI
chickens, and, being certain that the
visitor was the midnight caller al
her chicken house, she Joined cheer
fully in the talk, and explained hel
| method.
The man then asked if he might
inspect her chicken coop. She con.
sented, and both went to the yard
The man made the minutest inves.
tigation, but. naturally. failed tc
! find the $500.
Finally the man left. with a sore
ly disappointed expression. while
the woman with the proceeds of her
unintentional sale securely hidden.

The apple crop of the United States
this year is estimated at 36,120000 bar
rels, which is 12,625,000 barrels larger
than the 1905 crop. Where two apples
were available to delight the apple lover
last year there are three now. Rather,
there should be three, but so great has
been the waste of apples which could
not find markets that the consumer will
not be able to benefit In anything like
the proportion he should. Early In the
season, when the fall apples began to
rlpen, the woe of the man with the big
orchard was pltlable. He would see his
| trees breaking down under the weight
of fruit, and know that even If he
| hauled the apples miles to market
town he could not get better than 20
| cents bushel for them, with a POSSIBLE
ity that the local dealers would refuse
to take them at any price. The hogs
were the main beneficiarles of the crop.
When the winter apples rlpened the sit
uation was no better. An observer at a
small town In Central Illinois, from
which the apple product of about a
third of a county was shipped, has re-
ported that there was waste of 10000
barrels In that territory alone or about
a quarter of the crop. Consumers in
the cities have benefited despite the
waste by being able to get the poorer
grades of apples at low prices, but
strange to say, the better grades have
sold at retail for almost as high prices
as they have brought in recent years OF
short crops The quality of the apples
Is little better, and the price a little
lower, but the improvement In both fac
tors combined does not begin to equal
what would be expected from the huge
production. The causes of the waste |
have been the high freight rates and Il |
ear service which Is not adequate for |
the emergency. Without the cold stor-
age warehouses and the development of I
fruit transportation lines, the situation .
would be worse than 1t is, and the coun-
try would have even less benefit from
the bounty of nature The problem of
organization to enable the country to get
the best use of its resources Is an enor-
nous one and will remain such so long
as the population continues to grow. 1t
is one in which every citizen has an In
terest To make two apples grow where
one grew before is hardly more import
ant than to make the two apples, when
once they are grown, reach the mouths
which want them.

the thoroughbred race horse its value.
He set them all guessing by the state

would have no value whatever.
"Iou believe that betting has not all
to do with values of the race horse" he
said. "Why, If the right to bet on a

MIR. Cleveland Scored Five.

The late William C. Whitney wanted
to do something out of the ordinary
when he gave his first cabinet dinner
as member of President Cleveland's
cabinet. He secured the markets OF
Washington for delicacies. For fruit
he decided he would have peaches.
1t was the middle of February, and
there were no peaches in Washington,
He found man in New York who said
he could get some, and Whitney or,
dered a basket
The dinner was great success. In
discussing it next day Judge Lamar
said: "Those peaches were fine. Mr..
Whitney, Where did you get them?"
I'm New York." Mr. Whitney said.
"A man there found them for me-"
peaches in February are certainly
great treat" continued Lamar. IF
it is a fair question, how much did
they cost?"
"They cost forty-eight dollars a
Dozen" said Whitney.

TURTLES TURNED ON REFEREE
They Resented Mans Interfering in
Personal Quarrel.

fersOnal quarrel.
Milton ]. VreeIand, a farmer living
near Pine Brook, n. j., was nearly
drowned in the Passaic River the
other day as the result of his acting
as referee in a fight between two snap
ping turtles, says the New York
World. Vreeland, who was in a canoe,
watched the bout for minute or two
and then decided that it was time for
the combatants to break away.
He padded up to them, reached
over the side, caught them by the tails,
one in each hand, and swung them into
the canoe-one in the bow, the other
in the stern of the frail craft But
the turtles did not accept this deci-
son. They wanted to fight on, and
being unable to get at each other they
attacked the self-appointed referee.
The farmer had found it an easy
matter to catch hold of the turtles
tails when they were in the water, but
it was impossible now with the canoe
to keep on an even keel. He caught
up the paddle and with this managed
to beat off his assailants for a while.
but at last the canoe capsized. As it
did so one of the turtles dealt the
farmer a blow in the back just below
the belt 1t chung to the place on the
trousers where it had snapped, and
Vreeland found he could not swim.
He says himself he would have gone
to the bottom but for Frank Jacobus,
