CHICKEN CULTURE
 PROVES PROFITABLE
RIGHT STRAINS AND PROPER TREATMENT MEAN HANDSOME REMUNERATION FOR EFFORT.

Perhaps to the average person there seems nothing of the artistic or aes- hetic in the care Of flock of fowls, 1ut really there is no fancy which giees greater opportunity or scope for these. This does not mean the mon srel or the ordinary mixed barnyard type, but the thoroughbred. Any shape, size or color can be found as the breeder prefers and the GOODS and yards can be made attractive in appearance. The keeping of them neat is indispensable for filth and poultry culture are incompatible.
 The fancier can select a solid col ored or a pardcolored bird, white. black, red. gray and other mixed col ors. The size and the shape of any of these can be selected also to suit the individual taste
 It has become generally agreed that on the range, where there is ample room for exercise. the Mediterranean breeds, Leghorns and Minorcas. are the best egg producers. They are mot the best table fowls, however, and if 1t is meat which is to be desired, the heavier breeds, English and Ameri- can. may be selected. In close guar ters, such as are obtainable in the average hack yard in the city, the American breeds are found to lay about as many eggs as the Mediter. ranean breeds besides having the ad- vantages of quicker growth to the broiler or frier stage and making 8 better roasting fowl when grown Among these breeds may be included the wyandotte (black. white. silver or golden), Plymouth Rocks (white or barred) and Rhode Island Reds. Among the English breeds. which are still heavier and slightly less act i've egg producers. are the orpingtpns 1 (white and bIack), the Dorkings and Hthe Cornish English Game.
 The Asiatics. Shanghais, Laugshans Cochins and others are the heayiest breeds and 1ightest layers.
 Let the housewife obtain a flock o l birds which pleases her in appearance and she will enjoy the work Of car i ing for them They will more thai repay her time, attention and the foot they consume in eggs for the table when eggs are literally gold, and ii their fine flesh.

RECENT COUNTY FAIR
 PROVES BENEFICIAL
DISPLAYS EMPHASIZE THE MANY RESOURCES AND WEALTH or cocHIsE COUNTY.


 The following letter has been re ceived by the Bisbee Review from County Fair Commissioner oscar K. Coll, relative to the exhibit of Cochise County at the recent Territorial Fair at Phoenix. The letter is gladly giy- en the publicity which he requests for it;
 Tombstone, Ariz., Nov. 2s, 1909. To the Ranchef. stoekman and Miner
 of Cochise County:
 Now that the Fifth Annual Territor- ial Fair has passed into history as the most successful event of it's kind lever held in Arizona. wish to extend my most hearty thanks for the cc- operation which was accorded me at the hands of the enterprising and public-spirited citizens of Cochise County in assisting me in getting to- gether creditable exhibit from this county at the recent fair.
 One of the most noteworthy exhib- its Cochise County has ever had on display in the way of agricultural pro ducts. both by irrigation and "dry farming" methods, was shown, and the showing made was extensive, in fact more so than was anticipated
 We have shown the visitors at that institution that our mineral and agri- cultural wealth is beyond comparison, and we hope that by the time the Sixth Annual Territorial Fair rolls around the citizens of Cochise Coun. ty will see the value of having a more extensive exhibit, which will mater. ially help. not alone in advertising Arizona to the outside world, but in bringing Cochise County to the front as mineral producing section, as well as the banner agricultural eoun ty of the territory.
 Again thanking the exhibitors fol their hearty cooperation and assis tance, I am,
 Very respectfully, OSCAR K. COLL.

North Pole Again Discovered.
Pear Rs.urns Successful

For the second time within FIVE
days the world was startled on
Tuesday by a message froui the
North sitting that the Pole had
been discovered.
Tn time the word came from
Commander Robert Z. Peary, L
:. n, who has at last attained his
goal after twenty-six years OF ef-
fort. He reached the Pole on April
sixth Of this year, about year
after Dr.. Cook.
1t Is a remarkable coincidence
that after long centuries OF fruitless
efforts to reach the top Of the earth
two messages should be telegraph
ed to the world almost simultan-
eously announcing success. 1t is
still more gratifying to realize that
both the authors of these messages
are Americans.
All doubt as to the authenticity
OF DR.. Cooks discovery should now
be dissolved, after a thorough COM
parison of his records with those OF
Commander Peary shall have been
made. Both explorers will reach
New York this month.
The universal press is now filled
with long accounts given by the
discoverers, and with editorials
lauding their bravery and perse-
vererce; Royalty is paying homage;
the whole world is congratulating
America and praising her two no.
BILE sons, Peary and Cook.

Say Census Will Show 100000
Under Flag.
Experts Estimate ss, 900. 900 in Union, With
100000 in Our lnsulsr
Possessions.

Experts in the Census Bureau,
already busy with forecasts of the
probab.e results Of the new count
Of population to be taken next
spring, figure out that the enumer-
alton will show Sc. $40, 900 people
in the United States proper, and
that the population OF all the States,
Territories and insular possessions
will make a magnificent aggregate
OF more than 1oo, ,ooo. 900.
This estimate is made by men
who have kept close watch on the
increase Of population in the cities
of the country, on the birth and
death rate, on immigration statis-
tics for the last decade, and are.
therefore, we'll qualified to make a
close guess as to what the result OF
an accurate enumeration will be.
The census of 1900 gave the popu-
latiou foi the United States proper
as 1857 ,225, 50 that if the esti-
mate OF the showing OF the new
census as given above be accepted
as approximately correct, the in
crease in the ten-year period will be
about Is. .ooo. 600.
Following the new census, uuder
the law a new apportiOument Of the
House of Representatives will be
necessary. If the present minimum
of population in 4 Congressional
district, which is 1914 900, Is adher-
ed to in making the new apportiou-
ment, the membership Of the House
will be increased from 5S7 10 465,
taking it for granted that next
years census will show a total pop
ulaticn of $3.50, ,oco. 4 House
consisting Of 465 members would
It is generally agreed, be altogether
unwisldy. To keep the membership
down to 400, the basis OF represen-
tation would have to be lifted from
1874, 900 to 225,o But even on
this basis the States Of Pennsylva-
MIA. New York, Illinois, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Texas would gain
at least one member of the House
and New YORK. Pennsylvania and
Texas probably would gain two
members each.

Arctic Keeps One Mystery.
Fate Of Anoree and Companions Still Un
explained.

With news from Peary, who says
he has discovered the North Pole,
there remains only one explorer
who entered the Far North of
whose fate nothing is positively
known-Salomon Auguste Andree,
Of Sweden, who, with two compan-
ions, set out for the Pole II years
ago in a balloon. 1t is believed,
however, that Andree surely Is
dead.
Whatever the fate of Audree and
his daring co-eXplorers, his expedi-
ton established one great fact tor
scientists and those aeronauts who
shall hereafter attempt to reach the
Pole by balloon-that is, that at
certain times of the year there are
trade winds blowing from the south
directly over Spi,zbergen and flow
ing straight for the Pole. Andree

Returning Prosperity.
Evidenced BY Railroad Business.

The return Of prosperity to the
railroads of the country is evidenc-
ed in reports just published of the
gross earnings OF IS roads for the
first half OF August.
For the first time since the panic
of 1907 the aggregate weekly gross
earnings exceeded the high records
reached in August, 1907.
For the second week in August
the Is roads reported gross earnings
Of 8, 545,724, an increase OF over 8
per cent. over the same period Of
August, 1907, when the gross earn
ings re ched the record figure Of
S s56,3I4.
The earnings for the last week Of
August have not been computed,
but on the basis of the increase for
the second week railroad men be-
lieve that the high record Of Au-
gust, 1907, Of SI5,S53, 9S7, will be
eclipsed and a new record set.
The total for August, 1907 was
$40, COL ,S77. The first two weeks
Of August, 1909, totalled SIS, Io2, :
! 7o7, as against SI7,659,77o tor the
first two weeks of August, 1907
On this basis new record of rail

To Tear Out Hill by Dynamite.
Immense Blasts Will be sei of at sorIhum
beriand Classification Yards.

Preparations are being Clade in
the work of the classification yards
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad above
Northumberland to blast away a
hill, which must be levelled to form
part of the yards. This will be one
Of the biggest engineering feats on
the work and thousands of tons OF
dirt and rock will be torn out and
carted to different points of the
yard to be used as filling.
Well diggers are now sinking
holes in the hillside, about twenty
feet apart. These holes are about
FIVE inches in diameter, and go
about 40 feet into the earth. Two
rows of them are being dug, and
one row is to be exploded ct time.
The ground for the greater part Of
the depth is mostly shale.
When these blasts are set of they
will be heard for miles around, and
enormous clouds of dirt will be
thrown into the air, making a sight
that will be we'll worth witnessing.
After the first discharge the
ground will be carted away with
the numerous teams that are being
used in the work. The second
blast will tear out a great part OF
! the remainder OF the hill.
