OF last year The increase alone in
the sale Of stamps, stamped envel-
opes, etc, the past month, over the

HAD TROUBLE
IN DRAWING
A JURY TODAY

Difficulty was experienced in draw
Ing jury to try the suit of William
II. Mccormick against Frank Van
Syckle in the district court this
morning, under a state law which
went into effect in this city.
Under the new law, for each ses-
sion, panel of fifteen men is cho-
sen, from which the attorney for the
plaintiff is allowed to strike six men
and the defendants representative,
the same number. Should the max
imum number be stricken out, there
would be left but three jurors, and
that is practically what happened
this morning. Together, Henry w.
kehoe and Thomas Brown, counsel
for the plaintiff and defendant, res
pectively, struck from the panel
eight names, leaving but seven men
to serve.
Clerk Colyer was compelled to
summon an extra panel. and Con-
stable John G. Brown went chasing
about town to secure the needed
men. He was only able to serve
summons on two, however, and the
case had to be tried before nine
men.
Mccormick is suing, as told in
yesterdays NEWS, to recover an au-
tomobile truck which is being held
by Frank Van Syckle, a garage pro-
prietor, in default of a bill of $50
for repairs.
G. Howard Smith was given a
Judgment for $6.34 by Judge Beck
man in the district court this morn
ing against William H. Mccormick
as settlement of suit tried last
week in which Mccormick was the
plaintiff In an action to recover SIT
rent from Smith. The latter averred

RAISING OF POULTRY
Dr. [. L. Taylor Will publish
each wook n few helpfui
hints to poultry raIsors.

Artificial methods OF Matching
and rearing Where the num-
Der OF chickens to be raised Is
large, the incubator and brooder
Is likely to prove much more sat
isfactory than to attempt to use
hens as you can attend to them
much quicker and easier, and
when using an incubator IL is
best to follow the instructions
given with the incubator you
purchase. An incubator will not
run well without careful atten-
tion and good judgement is re-
quired. The eggs should be
tested from the 9th to the 7th
day as the test was explained
before, 1t will be found a great
advantage II possible to secure
some one accustomed to the use
OF incubators to help in setting
one up and getting 1t taited.
When chicks are Matching the
incubator should not be opened
unless absolutely necessary and
1t is best not to be in too great d
hurry to remove the chickens
from the incubator and they are
often given their first feeding
in the incubator.
Brooder - Breeders are not
used much in this country so |
will say nothing about them.
Taking chickens from the incu-
bator II is best to keep them in
a brooder but they can very eas-
lily be kept with hens and it is
best to to give these chicks from
the incubator to an old hen at
night as she will be more likely
to claim them.
