One of the warmest as well as dri-
est stationary poultry houses we ever
saw was made of clay hollow blocks,
the dead air spaces in the block insur-
ing both of these conditions. The in
terror of the house was plastered with
thin coat of cement. which served
to make the structure still warmer
and filed up crevices which would
serve as refuge for lice.

That the tendency of corn to sucker
is due more to inherited tendency than
to character of soil was nicely shown
this season in the case Of two vari-
cites of corn which were planted side
by side on the same soil and at the
same time on the writer's ranch. One
variety which was home grown was al
most entirely free from the sucker
forming tendency, while the other. an
imported pedigreed seed. produced
from two to four suckers for each
stalk.

Some analyses of solid and liquid
manures which have been made by an
English soil specialist place the fer
tilizer value of fresh urine from a ton
of linseed cake at $3.50. while the
value of fresh manure from the same
quantity Of linseed cake is but 81
This investigation gives emphasis to
suggestions which have been made OF
late showing the necessity of more
care in saving liquid manure. which in
the usual process of handling the
homemade fertilizers is usually lost.
Straw of itself has slight fertilizing
value, but when used as an absorbent
of LIQUID manure 1t serves a most
valuable and useful mission. Thus in
stead of allowing the stacks of straw
to rot down in the field. as is the case
in so many sections, it should be scat
tered in the feed yards and lots and
used generously for bedding, which
will serve the twofold purpose Of
making the cattle and horses comfort
able and saving the fertilizer in ques-
tion.

Three parts kerosene to one part crude

A long step would be taken toward
improving the highways of the coun-
try were so simple a thing to be done
as the enactment by state legislatures
Of laws compelling the use of wide
tired vehicles for the hauling of loads
to and from market. This would not
alter the contour of roads out of
shape, take the place of the road drag
or of graveling or matchmaking roads
which would otherwise be impossible,
but it would do more to improve coun-
try roads than any simple policy which
has been put into effect up to the
present time.

When an article or commodity is
advertised at so or 40 per cent below
the prices which usually prevail there
is quite likely reason for it, and in
a good many cases this reason is an
inferior quality. The commodity may
be "wrecking house" lumber, $4.97
morris chairs or $199S buggies. We
are not urging folks to stop buying at
the bargain, but only to appreciate the
fact that considerable reduction in
price almost invariably denotes a lack
in both quality and durability.

Kansas City Market Report.

Kansas City Stock Yards,
July 10, 1910.
The morning estimate today
called for ten thousand cattle,
which was not as many as had
been expected. although the
official count today comes nearer
the mark, at 1900 head, includ-
ing 1000 calves. This supply is
sufficient to balance the demand,
or little more in some cases.
and the market is steady to
weak the stuff selling a shade
lower in some cases, but stock
ers and feeders are strong, and
quarantine cattle strong to 10
higher on steers. Beef channels
widened out a good deal last
week. and considering the ad-
vance of 10 to 25 cents made last
week by the general market,
sellers are satisfied this week to
trade on the basis of the close of
last week. The character of the
receipts are changing each week.
fewer corn fed steers this week,
the best here at $500, although
prime steers would go up to
1925, and more pasture cattle
from native territory. Quaran-
tine runs are Stacked up little,
the majority of the small holders
have sent their stuff in, and good
| inroadS have been made on some
of the big herds in the Usage
country and other sections of
big pastures. The native pas
ture cattle will have it their own
way for the next several weeks,
and so far they are meeting with
favor from buyers. The big
heavy wintered steers sell at
$500 to 1925. medium and light
weight steers at $500 to S6.4O.
grass cows around $500. the
veal calves $3.50 for best this
week. Calf supply is largest of
the season this week, and while
this is not unfavorable, the calf
market is subject to violent
changes at any time. Bulls sell
at $500 to $46O. stock steers
1925 to $500, feeders $4.25 to
5000.
The hog supply of 10000 here
today is several thousand head
under the run a week ago, and is
not up to expectations by a good
deal 1t seems that shippers
are wary on the falling market,
and many of them are doing
nothing, and expect to remain
idle till the market reaches what
looks like a permanent hating
place. Owners themselves are
too busy in the field to turn out
any considerable numbers. In
view of this, the shippers do not
consider the present bulge SER
iously, and continue to look for
a lower level. Light hogs sold
mainly at $500 to 1878 today,
medium weights S8.45 to $50,
heavy hogs $3.50 to $8.45, some
335 ID animals at the former
figure.
Sheep supply is larger to-day
5000 head here, and the market
is stronger. Top lambs sold at

FIGHTING THE
 FOREST FIRES
BY HENRY s. GRAVES GU. z. Forester)

The principles of fighting forest fires are essentially the same as those recog. nized in fighting fires in cities. The following are of first importance: CD Quick arrival at the fire; (2) an adequate force; (3) proper equipment; (4 a crew, and CD skill in attacking and fighting fires. Quick access to fires is accomplished through the work of super vision and patrol in discovering fires before they have gained much headway, and by well.developed system of communication through the forest by roads and trails.
 A small fire may be put out by one man, but in extensive forests several hours may pass before the fire can be reached, It is important to secure an adequate force of men and to get them to the fire quickly. In a well organized system of patrol the guard who discovers fire communicates quickly to other guards and to headquarters by telephone signal, or other means, and indicates the number of men he needs.
 The efficiency of the ire-fighting crew depends very largely on their skill and experience, and particularly on the skill and experience of the man directing the work It is not only a question of knowledge of how to assign each man where his work will be most effective, bat there must be judgment exercised in determining the general method of attack. The character of the fire, the character of the forest, the conditions of the atmosphere, the strength and direction of the wind, the rapidity with which the fire is running, and many other points have to be taken into consideration"
 After describing how surface fires may be put out by beating, by throwing sand or loose earth, and by other methods, the account goes on:
 Sometimes the front of the fire is so fierce that it is impossible to meet it directly. One method under such circumstances is to direct the course of the fire. The attack is made on the side near the front, separating the forward

Many little romance, started in the early life at school, has ripened in the later years of life. and many another with the fieeting years has passed into the long eternities of time, but the roc mantle touches of childhood's happy years will have an impress on life never to be wholly forgotten.
 With the opening of the autumn term the schools are filled to their capacity and some are crowded to a degree beyond teachers at the desk and once familiar faces are missing. 1t is the way of the world changes come into our lives and the older elements pass out and we abs sorb the new and life grows and is en- riched with the passing years.
 Some find themselves this term ad- vanced to higher grade of work. They are for the while surrounded by new clements, but gradually the novelty If the change will wear away and they will in time fit into these changed sur roundinRs and become a component part of the composite picture of school life.
 The high school starts with new principal and the entire scholastic sys- tem is under the supervision of new executive head.

CANDID REPLY . IS HERE MADE
 ID |, 5, MELLEN
BY ANDREW R, JONES (President State Business Mems
 Association)

MT Mellen's letter on public utilities has been called to my attention. I beg to reply briefly in order that the attitude of the State Business Mems association may be clearly understood.
 The State Business Mems association of Connecticut, incorporated, is itself & corporation; it is composed of over 50 local associations, which in turn include about 1,500 of the, leading business men and firms in the state. Many of these business men, like myself. are managers of corporations; many of them, possibly a majority, are stockholders in public service corporations and in the corpora tion of which MT Mellen is the president. It needs no argument, therefore, to show that the State Business Mems associa-
