Gettins PROFIT from Poultry.
Poultrymen estimate that it costs l
cent apiece to produce an egg The
estimate is based on the fact that the
hen lays 120 eggs In the year. In
other words, where the fowls are con-
fined to runs, and the feed must be
purchased. 1t costs 10 cents per month.
or $1.20 per year, to maintain a hen.
II the hen is an Indifferent layer, and
gives but sixty eggs in year, her
eggs cost the poultryman . cents each.
1t is argued by some farmers that
their hens cost them practically moth
ing, as they have free range and can
gather all the food they need. There
Is some truth In that, and there also
is some truth in the fact that farmers
flocks seldom yield profit-at least
compared with stock In the hands of
regular poultryman. There are almost
as many eggs lost on the average farm
as are gathered. Hens hide their nests,
and what eggs are not stolen by ami
mails are subsequently found by the
farmer, generally after having become
stale or bad.
1t is mistake to allow laying sto.b
the freedom of the farm. Large run.
and comfortable houses and proper egg
producing food would soon be reye.-
alton to the farmer.
An experiment conducted by the Cor
nell Experiment Station in 1902 show
ed that the average cost Of feed per
dozen eggs was 90 cents, or abol.
three-Quarters Of cent per egg. The
cost per hen for the year was 99G
cents. At that time wheat was sold at
$1.45 per 100 pounds, while ut present
it Is So; bran sold at $1.35 per 100
pounds, and now Is S1.S0; and meat
scraps cost $2.15 per 100 pounds, and
now we pay $40. So at the present
increased price of feed the cost Of feed
ing the hen is easily 20 cents per year
more than 1t was in 1902.
To make poultry profitable ON the
farm 1t is necessary to breed for better
laying, This is done by installing trap
nests in the henhouses, and each year
picking out the best layers and breed
ing only from such. The farmer must
grade;up his stock he must get rid of
the mongrel birds; he must drive out
the drones. and must encourage the
workers. The farm must produce bet
ter poultry and more of it.
There are advantages on the farm
for poultry raising that the poultry
man does not have. and If the latter, In
many ways handicapped. can make
poultry keeping a successful business,
the farmer should at least make the
work valuable adjunct to his income.
Properly managed poultry can be made
the most profitable crop on the farm
Investment, expense and labor con-
sidered.

THE PANIC THAT FAILED.

An interesting story might be
written of the panic that failed to
hold it's job, or of the money that
went into hiding and then came
back. An apt illustration would be
in the instance of the sale of the
new Pennsylvania bonds, a call for
$40, 100000 that was to have been
half subscribed in America and half
in Europe. The American end was
oversubscribed about five times and
London capital showed nearly as
much earnestness to get some of the
good thing.
Railroad magnates who have been
putting up the luguberous plea that
the attack on predatory wealth was
driving investors out of the market
and making it impossible for them
to finance their improvement plans
will have to find another vent for
the venom of their spleen There is
money in plenty for financing prop
er ventures. The people have taken
the measure of the money scare and
have sounded it's limitations. There
may be more caution, but there is
no longer any apprehension.

NOT OUSTED TOO SOON.

William D. Haywood has been
discharged from the Office he held
with the Western Federation of
Miners because. forsooth. he got on
. prolonged debauch while in Den
yer.
Many people will commend the
executive council for discharging
Haywood for the reasons given, but
q large proportion of the people OF
the country may agree that Hay
wood should have lost his Office
with the federation long ago on ac-
count of his reasonable. libelous
and socialistic speeches against the
government, the president and the
courts of the land.
Haywood's alleged debauch Is one
OF the least of his sins against the
principle of good citizenship, and
many men who drink to excess and
make a practice of carousals are al

Leaning back in his easy chair in
the office of the secretary of state
Co. George B. Thomas was dream,
ing, dreaming of the morrow, when
as marshal of the day, astride Of his
prancing charger, with his red sash
across his breast and his sword
clanking at his side, he would direct
the parade in honor of the Presi-
dent. Pictures of Phil Sheridan in
the Shenandoah Valley and John A
Logan at Atlanta persisted in float
ing through his brazil.
Then came the rude awakening.
Challis Randolph, Judge Warwick J.
Oliver and Larry O'Neil filed into
the office.

trio in his deep voice and with much

it. Quick action, he knew, must be

of things but he read the lay pointed
out TO him.
"You need have no uneasiness,
Colonel" Judge Oliver assured him.
1--WE are not acting hastily in a mat
ter of such grave importance as this
We have gone into the law with
great care and are sure of our ground.
Governor Randolph has the same
power now that Governor Sharp
would have were he here. You have
nothing to do in the premises but to
comply with the wishes of your sup
erior in office"
Still Colonel Thomas fought for
time. 1t was nearing o'clock, the
hour for closing the office, and he
thought that if action could be de-
ferred till the following day some
thing might transpire to turn the
cards in favor of his party. He was
lawyer enough to know that he was
beaten as the case stood. He raised
technicalties. He tried to consult
the attorney general over the tele-
phone knowing at the time that that
official was in Cheyenne. He called
attention to the law governing the
custody of the seal-he was not sure
that he had the right to place the
seal on any document in the absence
of the secretary of state.
Let me ask you a question on that
point" said Judge Oliver who was
growing impatient; last summer
Secretary McLennon was absent for
a month. Who had the custody Of
the seal them"
81 did" was the colone's reply.
"And you attended to the placing
of the seal on all legal papers?"
81 did"
"You are chief deputy here, and in
the absence Of the secretary you have
all the power the law gives him?"
The colonel was silent.

foolshness," Randolph said in some
heat Colonel Thomas" he con-
tinued; 81 take you to be man of

The colonel surrendered. "All

attention to that clause of the law
which says the illegal use of the seal

This cry fell from the lips of Gov

his hand an open telegram and there
was black scrowl on his brow as
he looked around him. He was

his party were about to embark in
carriages for a ride over the city

A hurried council of war followed
