This is not a joke. 1t is serious
question which confronts the housewife

Race suicide is rampant among the
Utah chickens. The Eighty local bircs
infinitely prefer to attend the gabfest III
the corner of the barnyard, where their
sister hens characters are torn TO
shreds, than to burden themselves with
the onerous duties of raising a family.
Whatever the real reason may be, the
fact remains that even at the helSht
of the season the Utah poultry raisers
are unable to supply one-half the de-
mand, and with the coming winter
months the price of both eggs and
chickens will in all probability advance

WARDWELL'S LIFE ENDED
Veteran of Two Wars Dies While in
Quarantine With Insane and
Leprous Wife.

Tombstone, Ariz. Aug. f5.-General d.
K. Wardwell died this afternoon while in
quarantine with his leper wife. Her suf-
ferings from the combined effects of lep-
rosy and the nervous strain following the
attendant notoriety of their case has de
throned her reason and she is totally I'M
aware that her husband is dead.
General Wardwell was a veteran OF the
Mexican and Civil wars. Efforts TO de-
port Mrs. Wardwell to the leper colony
have brought out many complications, the
federal authorities refusing aid and the
territorial officials being unable to act
under the present law. IL is probable she
will remain isolated here and cared for
until her death.
