POULTRY
FOR PROFIT

A series of articles will appear in
this department dealing with sue
cess with poultry and later be fol-
lowed with articles on the various
breeds and hints on poultry culture
generally. The articles will be pre-
S nted with view to helping Il os c
already engaged in the business al
those about to start with poultry,
into better ways of handling bust
ness that is becoming so important.
A careful reading of this depart
mcnt will assist to better poultry
and greater profit from the BUSH
ness.
Poultry keeping may be fad
with a limited few, but in a vast
majority of cases il is serious
matter, question of bread and but
ter, of a Twill ODD, I'D any -artie /;
written or compiled on the subject
should view oiltry business in
this light. We shall not put into
these articles single statement or
bit of advice in which we have not
full confidence. We do not wish to
misrepresent in the least, or to de-
ceive anyone.
We do hope the articles may be
the means of helping large num-
Der of people who wish to better
their condition in life and are in a
position to handle poultry with
pleasure and profit. We shall put
into these articles, therefore, only
the best information and the best
advice at our command, doing SO
with a full understanding Of our re-
sponsibility-
Success with poultry depends up
on much the same things that sue
cess does i'll any undertaking OF bus
mess enterprise. To be SUGGEST ul
in any line of work slothful, care
iess extravagant habits must give
way to thrifty, pains-taking and
economical methods. Thought must
be put into your work.

penstock so that the EXETER can be started
for the testing Of machinery. The filing
OF the dam even to this height creates
quite lake, and gives faint idea Of how
the map Of Ellsworth will be changed
when the dam is filed to the top. The
general impression is fiattening out Of
the landscape. Valleys have disappeared,
and hills have grown suddenly small. As
the dam fills from the point where the
water is now held, the lake will broaden
more rapidly, as it is now above the river
gorge. The engineers are pleased at the
''dryness' Of the dam. Some leakage is al
ways expected in dams Of this character
when the water is first turned on, but as
Chief Engineer Leonard expresses it, ''the
leakage through this dam would not fill a
three-inch pipe.r

The Alibi.

The brilliant and learned supreme court
justice. William j. Gaynor. said in an adj
dress in New Rochelle of certain viola
tors of the law:
When the courts justly and properly
held that the railroads were public high
ways in order to convict Debs of contempt
of court for obstructing them. these other
violators of the laws of the highways
were loud in their plaudits; but now they
aSsail the courts and the President and
the government In the grossest manner
when the same law is applied to them"
In subsequent discussion of this u,es-
ton Justice Gaynor smiled and said:
These wrongdoers, you see convict
themselves In their very defense. They
are like John Mifi1in of the middle west.
John Miffl1n of the middle west had his
high spirits dampened one fine day by q
summons to appear before the local mag
fstrate on charge of assaulting one
Montgomery Sales.
"Miff1in sought out a lawyer, but the
lawyer had too much on hand to take
such a tritiing case. He dismissed Milf
fin with the curt advice:
prove an alibi'
Miffiin has stanch friend one Jacob
Harmon. He sent for Jacob, coached him
thoroughly, and afterward went about
with light heart again. He had now nc
fear about the outcome of this unpleasant
business.
We'll, the momentouS morning came
the court came to order. and the case for
the prosecution made things look dark
for John Miffiin. There was apparently
conclusive evidence that he, at midnight
Friday. March Is, outside of Hogan's sa-
loon. had grievously assaulted kicked
pinched. bruised and scratched Montgom-
cry Sales about the head arms shoulders
back. sides and SO forth.
But Mifflin did not lose heart. He had

"A tall hlon. dreamy figure of a. man
rose hurriedly. The oath was administer
