POULTRY SHOW
 OPENS DEC, 20,

Aunt Sally is coming to the poultry show which the Bridgeport, Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock association will give at Lincoln hali December 20, town yet but may be here any day. You'll see her. She may bring her son with her. The show will attract many besides Aunt Sally who are In- terested in birds.
 Some of the fairest, most able men in the country have been secured as judges. Among them are F. w. Otto, Jr., Peekskill, N. Y., one of the Mad ison Square Garden judges; Daniel P. Shove. Fall River, Mass. also a Mad ison Square Garden judge; Charles M. Welles. Stratford, well known chub, Meriden, all-around judge, who has judged birds in Wisconsin, Can ada and other places; Mrs. c. M. Ceder, Pelham, N. Y., breeder of toy dogs who knows the pet stock thoroughly; John Brown of Whiting 3 During the show the Connecticut mem bers of the Silver Laced Wyan- dotte club will meet. There will be much to interest them.
 In the show are 25O prizes, includ- ing the canned goods and pet stock The canned goods department is :, new departure, but one thoroughly in harmony with the poultry show. Many poultry raiSers are also apiar- ists and small fruit growers. What more appropriate than display of honey and small fruit? It should attract a large number of interest and attract the feminine portion of the community which still delights in , "doing up" such things in preference to buying it canned.
 The National Bantam association competition will take place at this show and there are 16 special rib bons and silver cup in that class for fine birds.
 There are 43 prizes for fine dogs and there will be some show in the dog line.
 Everything points to a successful show, both as regards entries and at- tendance. Among the late entrants is Howard Gould of Castle Gould Long Island, who has quite a string | of entries.
 Daniel J. Ryan will be general su.

NATIONAL LEAGUE [ MEETING STARTS
 IN NEW YORK
Especial from United Press.)

New York, Dec. 13.-All the mag mates of the National League are gathered here, today, for their an- this afternoon. There seemed no doubt, this morning, that President Thomas Lynch would be reelected president. Garry Hermann, of Gin cinnati, is father of a movement to have Lynch's term of office lengthen- tomary one an q on this a split was expected. A majority of the mag mates were said to favor Lynch's election although it is said sufficient votes had not been procured to lengthen his term of office.
 Charles Murphy, of Chicago, has been leading the fight against Lynch and although it was not expected he would put John M. Ward in nomina- ton again, it was reported that he had dark horse' candidate to spring.
 Another point on which a split was forecasted was the length of the play ing schedule. Although it was pretty generally understood that a 154 game schedule would be adopted, Presi- dent Ebbetss. of the NBrooklyns, came to the meeting with a demand for a schedule which would carry him through Columbus Day, October 12, for that is a big celebration event among the Italians in Brooklyn and always packs the ball park.
 Ebbets also intended to bring up the matter of the $500 fine imposed upon him by President Lynch for re. leasing Shortstop Tommy McMillan to Rochester before the other National League teams had waived on him. Cincinnati later claimed him by a waiver and Lynch fined Ebbets for his action. Ebbets holds that the fine was illegal.

zBYSzKO WHO WHISTLES LUNDIN AT EAGLES HALL TOMORROW NIGHT

Those people living in the vicinity of Eagles hall should not be startled tomorrow evening when they hear succession of sneeZes and weird sounds No there is no epidemic of pneumonia, or such, as may be fear edit is only an enthusiastic crowd of Poles shouting the name of tn air illustrious fellow citizen, Zbyszko, "the Terrible Grappler."
 MT. Zbyszko, or better Attorney Zbyszko. for he is a learned Pole and a graduate of law school whose full name is nothing less than Stanislaus Zbyszko Diemetrivwitchcy Czienowicz is attempting to hurl his great mass of muscle and sinew and also entire alphabetical contribution on Hjamlar Lundin, the Swedish champion wrestler.
 Wrestling has long been a discred- fted sport. It is said that it is the easiest game to fake before the pub lie today. Prof. James Atlas inten- tions, when a few weeks ago he brought four great wrestlers here. were to demonstrate that the sport could come back if run on the level. Atlas reputation was so good that 1,500 people, men and women, took his word for it that the sport would be on the up-and-up, and paid good

money to see a splendid card. And they got their moneys worth too. They say the Polish wrestler, Zbysz- ko, with the tremendous name and omething like 347 pounds of muscle play with his opponent; they wtr- messed the agile and towering Lundin, slip away from the grasps of his husky battler, and then through his own 'quickness and thorough knowl- edge of the game, place his oppon- ent's shoulders to the mat. These two winners of that. evening, Zbysz- ko and Lundin, challenged each other before that audience. This is the bout to be run off tomorrow night.
 f.Zbyszko is to wrestle Lundin to a finish, best two out of three falls, and, while the. bunk on the mat game is unreliable, the giant Pole will have the time of his life winning.
 The Zbyszko-Lundin bout, of course is the stellar attraction because of the world wide prominence of the two men, but the other match is far above the ordinary. Young Pardello, the lightweight champion of Italy who has just come to this country will meet Young Gotch, who bids fair to make up we'll with his illustrious namesake, Frank Gotch, holder of the worlds title. This bout will be to the limit, best two out of three fails.

 Barrow. who was last season man. a~ar of the Montreal team, received the votes of Baltimore, Toronto, Buff falo, Newark and Montreal.
 Trouble, brewing over the fight oe- tween Patrick T. Powers and Ed Bar row, for leadership, eliminated in the refusal of President Powers to call the meeting
 Grinly defiant, five members of the 1eagu banded together and. in spite of President Powers, called meeting of their own. Barrow was nominate7 and chosen president almost before Powers and his two followers knew what had happened and then the meeting adjourned.

FARMERS ARE
 GETTING RICH
Cost of Living Has Increased Pu7chasin ing Power Of Crops
 50 Per Cent .f
Special from United Press,


 Washington, Dec. 13-That the "ill wind'' which sent the cost of living skyward for city folk, held a com- ting gust. of good for farmers, by increasing the purchasing power of crops, is the cheering assertion of Victor Homstead, chief of the bureau of statistics, of the Department of Agriculture, in his annual report, made public, today.
 While the earn ngs of the average city man have remained almost sta- tionary in the past ten years, he says, the purchasing power of the farmer has increased more than 50 per cent against a rise of slightly more than F per cent in the cost lof necessaries.
 Probably never before has the av- craze farmer been in better condition than in recent years" he adds. tsQuietly, he has-risen from the depths into wh:ch the ruinously low prices of the early nineties cast him. until now he has reached plane where he receives a vel deserved recompense for his laborS."

Danvflle, Ind, Dec. 13-Danville, today, is in the unique position of a town seeking office-holders-and of- fice-holders refuse to be found. Three of her five councilmen have resigned and the two who are left do not con- stitute a quorum so no city business can be transacted. Further to com plicate matters, the city clerk has re- signed. He is to become prosecuting attorney. The law requires that a special election be called to fill all the vacancies. The c.ty clerk must call this election-and there is no city clerk.
 Worst of all, not a man has been found who will accept the position of councilman or city clerk.

Relation of Pork Production to Farm

Hogs by nature are designed espec-
tally for the consumption of concen-
trated feeds, such as grain. Of late
years more r0ugEage in the way of pas
ture has been utilized. This, however,
is only one of several important fac
tors. The hog must have the princi-
pal part to do with the marketing of
the concentrated foodstuffs and by
products, such as milk and wastes on
the farm. Where milk is produced in
large quantities, hogs are almost essen
tial, except in unusual conditions
Where much corn is grown hogs fit in
well; in fact, the hog is valuable ad-
junct in the disposition of all grains
and waste by-products. However, it
must be remembered that hogs grown
in large numbers are not proportionate-
ly so profitable as when a smaller num-
Der are grown. Many people have made
the mistake of getting over-enthusias-
tic as to the profits to be realized in
pork production. and have attempted
far more than they could efficiently
manage; with the result that prospec-
tive profits were absorbed in expenses
and losses. Here, as elsewhere, success
depends upon good judgment.

the community, as possible; for in all
probability the dollar spent at home
like bread east upon the waters will re-
turn to you, and therein is economy.
But dollar sent out of the community
never returns and means one less
chance of you getting hold of a dol
lar. Making Your money in one eonr
munity and spending it in another is a
poor way to live at home. Buy, as far
as possible from the home merchant !;
employ home labor when you can get
it and have your work done at home.

Stock Raising in Mississippi.

There is fine opportunity in Mis-
sissippi for men of energy to grow rich
raising stock of all kinds, but espee-
tally hogs Is there any sense in our
having to pay 80 cents pound for
breakfast bacon when we could raise
1t at home with so little effort. The
fact that meat and lard are so high
proves that the demand is greater than
the supply and until more people give
their attention to the hog industry the
prices will remain high. Here is a
chance for our young men who are rest
less and casting about for something
to do to make money. Let them begin
