Yes, it's the old story-burning boo

ers. They were antiques, and 221 were
cooling roosters. A second bought a
25O egg incubator and brooder for $12
and freight paid. They were junk
A third paid $3.50 for $50 guaranteed
White Orpington eggs. They were
tested out eggs. A fourth got twelve
birds guaranteed to win at any show

is all along the line, multitudes invest

The nearest way to success is not
by steerage. Start wrong, end wrong;
buy cheap, accumulate junk; burn
money, and if you don't quit you must
go back and start all over.

INDIANS FEAT ON TRAIL.
8Ioodhounds BaffIed, He Follows and
Captures Bandits.

Bloodhounds Baffed, He Follows and
Captures Bandits.
Muskegee, Okla.-Willie Bryant,
full blooded Cherokee boy, nineteen
years old, taking trail that blood
hounds refused to follow, led the way
for fifty miles through rough timber
ed country and with posse surround
ed and captured the two remaining
robbers who made futile attempt to
hold up train at Braggs. resulting
il a fight in which one officer was
killed and one of the robbers badly
wounded.
The feat of Bryant is considered re-
markable. He has inherited all of the
instincts of his forefathers in the
craft of the trail. Sheriff Ramsay took
bloodhounds in an auto to the scene
of the hold-up before the trail was six
hours old, but the dogs refused to
follow it. Then Deputy Sheriff Clark
put young Bryant at the head Of the
posse. The Indian was given his
head. The course is in the foothills Of
the Ozark Mountains and very diff
cult for travel. This distance was GOV.
cred unerringly and swiftly by the
Cherokee. Though the task of keep
ing the trail was difficult, the men,
bers of the posse found the greatest
trouble in keeping in sight of Bryant.
When Proctor was reached the posse
men were utterly exhausted.

FEATHERS AND EeesHELLs.

No report was read with more inter-
est by the public than that which de-
clared experiments with alfalfa -four
had resulted in the finest kind of de-
licious, nourishing bread. If alfalfa
can make an ostrich, build a chicken
and strengthen a horse to pull, why
can't it build up a man?
There is an idea prevalent that salt
kills chickens. 1t takes a teaspoonful
of salt to kill a chicken. We flavor
our mashes with Just about as much
salt as would make them palataDle to
a human being. If one Of your flock
gets a dose of salt quickly give it the
white of an egg and feed it on milk for
day or two.
The early chick gets the best growth,
is least liable to disease and brings

number of physicians and nurses and
thus secured the trade Of two large
city hospitals.
The practice Of driving vast flocks
of geese to the London market still
continues. To shoe them for the jour
ney they are first driven over tar and
then over sand to give them Trilby
feet. This is tar and feathers with u
vengeance.
Barley is not much used in certain
sections on account Of the price. Where
1t is grown and cheaper it brings more
money from eggs than to sell 1t to the
distilleries.
Rye is little used for poultry. The
hens do not care for 1t. 1t ferments
and causes sour crop. If rye n bad
for the hen, old rye is much worse fol

In the famous Fountain valley Of
Ohio geese are plucked four times {

are pulled five times.

the bride of this occasion.
There are also very picturesque

great height through the airy drap-

lows of net or lace in front. Others
are fairly high and are trimmed
with plumes or flowers at any angle

TOBACCO SENDS WOMAN MAD
Mrs. Alice MuIlens Used the Weed
from Childhood, Chewing Two
Pounds Week.


Alton, Ill.-Driven insane by the
excessive use of tobacco, Mrs. Alice
Mulens of this city has taken to Ed
wardsville after being pronounced in.
sance by the Madison County Court.
Mrs. Mullens, who is 35 years old,
used tobacco from childhood, chewing
it in great quantities. At times, it is
said, her supply has reached two
pounds a week. She began using the
weed when girl of 16, and at 80
she was a physical wreck. Since that
time she has lived in Alton township
and given the county authorities all
sorts of trouble.
Mrs. Mullens is an attractive won.
an and her case is one of the strang.
est the officials have yet had to deal
with. Persons who visited her in her
home say that she often went to bed
with tobacco in her cheek. She also
smoked occasionally, a pipe preferred,
although cigars did not come amiss
when proffered to her. Scrap tobac-
co is her favorite, and six big pack
ages were an average weeks supply
for her. A police matron who investi-
gated her case reported she had not a
bite Of food in her house, but had a
big market basket full of tobacco
scraps on hand.
Mrs. Mullens is somewhat of a mys-
terry to the police, who have been un-
able to ascertain if she has any rela-
tives or where her home was before
she came to Alton. She rented a
house in East End place, a respectable
neighborhood, and lived there alone.

Lambs, Rams and Mutton.

The time that elapses between serv-
ice and lambing runs from 145 to $50
days. About lat days will catch the
great majority. AS in mares, the males
are carried slightly longer than the fe-
males. Old ewes, say from four to six
years. will produce the most lambs
and will save the most. There are
more single lambs produced by young
ewes than by older ones. Merino is the
wool sheep, Shropshire the all purpose
and Southdown the best mutton sheep.

KuRIos FROM CORRESPONDENTS


Q. was much surprised today to
find a live hen with maggots crawling
about her fluff. What are cause and
remedy? A. Big breeds often get
punches of filth about vent. If not re-
moved this causes Inflammation, and
sores and blowfies do the rest. Clip
off filthy feathers, wash with warm
water and soap and apply carboline to
sores.
Q. Do you publish n poultry book?
Please state price. A. We have re-
ceived number of letters asking this
question and wish to state that we
have no book on market at present.
Many of our readers are making n
scrap book Of Poultry Notes" and are
thus accommodating reliable practical
information for present and future
use.
Q. have q fully matured Light
Brahma cockerel that has never crow
ed. What Is the matter? Is he fit to
breed from? A. Perhapshe is not fully
ten pounds. Perhaps there is some
thing in his throat or he may have
poor lungs. If he wheezes, it is the
latter. Rather doubt if we would let
him head the pen. Get some nearby
fancier to examine him.
Q. Do hens always quit laying in
molting season? How long do they
stop? How soon after finishing the
molt do they lay? A. The great ma
jority. AS long as molt continues
from two to six weeks; longer if very
fat.
@. How can l keep my chicks from
overlooking the first day? a. BY first
day you likely mean the second, as
you should not feed for twenty-four
hours after hatch. Do not keep feed
before them all the time or give their
first feed toward evening. Always
feel their crops to see if they are get
ting too much or too little.
Q. Will you kindly tell me why
lost so many of my early squads
They were hatched in February and
March. \. You were fooled by the
pretty weather, like more of the boys.
Part of February and early March
We're very pleasant. You mated your
birds then, and your squads came out
just in time to be caught by bad
weather, which gave them cold and
canker. Late in April is time for fan
cy matingS.

Beet sugar factories are now in sue
cessful operation in sixteen states.
Colorado leads all other states en-
gagged in the industry, having sixteen
factories. In 1907 these produced 1G9.-
600 tons of sugar, or enough if it had
been passed around to give all the peo-
pie In the United States four pounds
apiece.
California and Michigan follow Colo
RADIO at a respectful distance in the
race for second place. Michigan has
the same number Of factories as Colo
RADIO, but their product is considerably
smaller. California has only nine
plants, but some Of the latter are very
large. From year to year the produc-
tion Of sugar is about the same in the
two states.
Utah has five factories, and they are
strong producers. Idaho and Wiscon-
sin follow with four each, and there
are ten states with one factory each.
The NEST eastern factory is that at
Lyons, n. y. Hamilton City, Cal. has
the most western factory Los Alami-
tOs, Cal, the most southern and Bill
lingS, Mont, the most northern.
The largest factory in the United
States and one of the largest in the
world is the one at Spreckels Cal,
which is able to slice 1900 tons Of
beets in a day, or a hundred carloads
of thirty tons each.
The oldest successful factory in the
United States is the one at Alvarado
Cal, which was established in 1879
and has been making beet sugar for
thirty years,
