MAY NAME MkINNY
Brooklyn Man Urged for
Tenement House Commissioner

Alexander Ncxinny, a Brooklyn lawyer,
who at one time was an Assistant cor
poratiOn Counsel, is being strongly urged
upon Judge GaynOr for appointment as
Tenement House Commissioner to succeed
Edmond J. Butler. Judge Gaynor has In
dicated that he will appoint a lawyer TO
this position on account of the great num-
her OF complaints received by him that
the law is not being construed according to
its spirit, but followed SO closely TO the
letter as to be 4 great hardship TO many
interests. Among those who are backing
Mr. McKinny for appointment is Edward
NJ Shepard.
1t was learned last night that Judge Gay
nor had not entirely decided to appoint
Dr. Joseph O'Conneu TO succeed Dr. Oar
ungton as Health Commissioner, although
the latter's chances for that place were
still excellent. But prominent men are
backing DR.. Traverse r, AIaxheld for the
position Or. Maxfield has served in the
department Tor several years. At one time
he was assistant sanitary superintendent In
charge of the office in Brooklyn. IL was
his removal from there to Manhattan that
caused much criticism on the part of
Brooklyn doctors OF the administration of
the Health Department by Commissioner
Darlington.
Tammany Hall is SO insistent upon the
reappointment of Fire Commissioner Hayes
that II is understood that NIayOr-elect Gay
nor will let him hold over in January,
along with Commissioner Edwards of the
Department of Street Cleaning and Police
Commissioner Baker, in order that he may
have a chance 10 study their work al
closer range
William B. Ellison may be the new Cor
poration Counsel, although Judge Gaynor
would like to have appointed him head
OF the Water Department Mr.. Ellison did
not care TO go back 10 that office. which
he held under the first administration of
Mayor Mcclellan Judge Gaynor was not
able to persuade J. Edward Swanstrom TO
accept an appointment as Corporation
Counsel.
Judge Gaynor is having more trouble IN
finding just the man he wants a the head
of the Water Department than in filling
any other office at his disposal

The last subject of the institute
was handled by Mr.. Culbertson
and handled in his usual forceful
manner, and was stated as follows !;
"More Live Stock Should Be Fed
and Less Hay and Grain Sold From
Our Farms" The speaker stated
that he had seen some farmers
that reversed the statement of the
subject and had more live stock
than they should have, but as a
general rule the average farmer
was anxious to sell just as much
feed as it is possible for him to do
without, and skimp along. That
the general farmer did not figure
that hay and corn and oats put
into live stock is better paying
investement than to sell the feed.
He said that the reason that they
did not figure that way was be-
cause they did not take into
consideration the yoiding product
of the animal for fertilizer, and
that the fertility of the soil is the
bank account Of the farmer. That
by the rotation of crops that many
different commodities for animal
food are raised, that made the
raising of live stock an easy thing,
and such a paying investment.
The speaker dwelt most eloquent.
ly on the thought that all wealth
reverts to the land for its basis,
and the land owner as the pro-
ducer, feeds the world. He dwelt
upon the subject of this being the
cement age, and the doors of the
barns should be made of cement,
and especially the drain ditch to
the rear of the stall in the barn, thus
saving ali the voiding, which was
such an essential on the farm.
