Leavenworth, Kan, April 20. -
Judge T. F. Carver and Judge S. H.
Allen, supreme court brewery re-
ceivers, took possession of five brick
buildings, said to be owned by the
Schlitz Brewing Company here to-
day. One is large two story ware
house and the other four corner
buildings, all located at good beer
selling points. Three of the build
ings were erected by the brewing
company The warehouse was left
in charge of John Rehr, the Schlitz
agent, whom, it is said, has pledged
his word not to use it for the stor-
age of stock or in any way in con-
nection with the handling or sale OF
teer. The sheriff has thu keys to
the other four buildings anG the sa-
looms in them are closed. The value
Of these FIVE buildings is fully fifty
thousand dollars. The allegation is
made by the agent that the brewery
does not own them, and litigation
over their possession is likely to fol-
low
Hem Gives Up Fight.
No other saloons except the one
owned by the Helm agent and the
four in the Schlitz buildings are clos
ed. 1t is reported that the Helm
Brewing Company has decided to
pull all property out of here and
spend no money in defense of the
suits in the courts The Helm agent
closed his place and notified the
county attorney, and no injunction
suit will; be filed against him indi-
vidually. The other beer agents not
| included in the companies in the
suits in the supreme court announce
that they will quit. Most of them
have removed their stock to Still
ingsville. Mo. Some of these agents
have rented buildings in Missouri
and are going to run supply depots
from that point The two wholesale
liquor houses have removed their
stock and closed up. One will open
in Kansas City and the other quit
business. So far no arrangements
have been made for the starting of
wholesale liquor house in Stillings-
vile.
Doom of Saloon System.
The visit of the receivers caused
the saloon keepers to put up binds
and many of them have their front
doors closed tonight. 1t is said that
quite a number will quit the first OF
the month and that open saloons will
be thing of the past within anoth
er week. The pulling out of the beer
agents without a fight has been very
depressing on the saloon keepers.
The action of the receivers in go
ing from saloon to saloon in the
downtown district attracted much
attention. Small crowds hung around
the places. There were no hostile
demonstrations of any kind. Even
the saloon keepers took the move
ment good naturally.

even the recently organized bureau In
New York has done a brisk business,

existence grown into one OF the most
important branches of the great work
done by the Army In the American
metropolis. 1t is under the supervision
of Miss Eva Booth, commander OF
the Army in America, but its active
director is Colonel Thomas Holland,

POULT r Z
For the Poultry Amateur.
III. l.. BLANCHARD

VIII the business ever be overdone,
that is will we breeders ever see the
time when the markets will be flooded
with eggs, or good stock for breeding
purposes and will poultry raising be
an Improbable occupation? L don't
believe that time is near at hand, do
you? Now would like to tell you why
you should keep pure bred poultry.
First. because a scrub hen will eat as
much grass as thoroughbred, and
won't take on as much flesh, neither
will they lay as many eggs and they
will soon eat their heads off, If you
have to buy most of the feed. For
instance, the little scrub here that
weighs or 4 pounds when matured
eats just as much as our Asiatic breed
that tips the scale at and pounds,
so where is the gain by keeping scrub
hens and not the pure bloods? In these
days we must use our own judgment
as to what breed we like best, then
let me say study the Standard and the
breed of chickens you have chosen, and
try to get your flock as near to per-
lection as you can. Don't think be-
cause you have a few fair birds that
your flock can't be improved; don't lose
sleep at night worrying for fear you
will flood the market, and you can't
dispose of your surplus stock, should
you be fortunate in raising few hun
dred birds; such is not the case, as
there are millions of dollars worth of
poultry sold every year in the United
States, and the maket never has been
flooded yet. The majority of all the
poultry is raised on the farm and most
ly by women managers. There are
thousands of acres devoted to poultry
yards, and since the farmers have awak
ened to the vast sums of money to be
made from the products of old Biddie.

LAYING "The Year Round"

There is a general impression that
good layers like poor ones, lay the
most of their eggs IN the early part
of the growing season of the year, when
everything that lays at all is supposed
to lay. 1t would seem, however from
experiments recently made with trap
nests by Mr. w. B. Candee, the we'll
known White Wyandotte man of De
Witt, N. Y, that a good layer lays
a good long time and that herein is
where she is good. Referring to these
experiments, the American Poultry Ad-
vocate says:
The individual records of the birds
are very interesting, and show that
when a bird is a great egg producer
she keeps pretty steadily at it, month
in and month out We copy two of
the records from his circular The first
is of hen No. 1913, which laid 236 eggs
in twelve months; the other is No. 33-B,
which laid 223 eggs in twelve months.
AS showing that a bird having prize
winning quality may also be a great
layer it is worth while noting that
this last bird won first as a pullet and
her smallest full months showing is
II eggs.
Mr.. Candee has kept about three
hundred head of layers this past win
ter, and expects to increase to five
hundred head next winter; he has be-
tween eight and nine hundred chickens
running about, and there is promise of
