AID is SOUGHT
FOR IOWA Hen
FANcIERs WANT STATE
APPROPRIATION TO BUY
FANCY BIRDS.

Des Moines, Dec. 30.-"The farm
hen is the Cinderella of the barn
yard" declared Mrs. Harriet Ashby
Wallace, editor of the poultry depart
ment of Wallace's Farmer, In short
talk at the institute held. at the Coli
scum last evening. THE ordinary hen
is thought less of and is really the
most valuable creature on the farm.
We who are interested in poultry must
ask the Iowa legislature for an appro-
priation for the Iowa Agricultural col
lege which shall be uscl in buying
pure bred birds which shall reproduce
stock to be sold to the farmers and
thereby raise the standard Of the diff
ferent breeds in Iowa"
The program last evening was the
second and last Of the institute estab-
lished by the agricultural college for
the education Of the poultry raiser.
Iowa poultrymen are making great
effort to bring this state to the front
rank as one of the producers of pure
bred chickens.
iowa ranks first among all the
states in the union in the number of
eggs produced in a year. said Prof.
H. G. Pierce of Ames. This state
also ranks first in the number of hens
kept by the farmers. These facts are
shown in the last United States cen
sus. The same authority states that
Iowa ranks thirty-fourth in the num-
Der of eggs per hen produced in a
year and thirty-eighth in the price per
dozen of eggs.
Poultry Industry Valuable.
''The problem lies in making our
hens lay more eggs and make them
lay the eggs that will bring the top
prices We have the most hens and
the most eggs, but the ratio between
the two is very low. Our hens do not
lay as many eggs as they should. The
fact Is, we do not take the proper
care of our poultry; we do not pay
enough attention to their breeding
and to their environments
Mr.. Pierce went on to show that the
value Of the poultry industry in the
United States has been placed by Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wilson at $780,
100000, or second only to the value of
the corn crop.
"The average which we should have
is of $50 eggs for each hen each year, "
he continued. That is fairly good
average but has been exceeded in some
states. The hen Is the most valuable
living creature the American farmer
possesses. In a years time she eats
only twenty times her own weight in
food and at the same time, under fair
conditions, produces five times her
weight in eggs. 1t can easily be es-
timated from that what the net profit
on hen for year may be"

dent Of the Iowa State Poultry associa,
ton, was the leader in the race for
prizes yesterday. In the Buff Wyan-
dottes class he won first, third and
fourth prizes for cocks; first, third
and fourth prizes for cockerels; sec,

The insurgents have acted with
courage and rare devotion to prin

obedience to high public policy and

Protest Is made by Chief of Police
Cowell to the statement in yester-
days Bulletin, with respect to the
young negro who claimed to have
been robbed by four other negroes on
Railroad street Friday morning
early. He says he did not tell the
complainant to go and get war
rants but to go and get the names
OF witnesses. He says he was at the
court house waiting to be called as
"a witness before the grand jury when
the negro complained to him, and he
told him to get the names of wit
|nesses and leave them at police head
quarters. This absolves the chief to
a certain extent. but does not explain
satisfactorily why the notorious Fifth
street dive which has been the head
quarters for this gang of negro
thieves for years and OF others male
and female-their daily operations on
the city's highways a subject of fire.
quent complaint-it does not explain
why this den has not received the
attention of the chief previous to the
affair OF Friday morning. Being
asked about this Chief Cowell said
last night to The Bulletin editor Il
won't break it up now because The
Bulletin would claim credit for it,"
This reason may or may not be &C
lcepted by the public as good; but il
seems certain that the chief missed
, a good opportunity to make a credit
able record for himself with Law
abiding citizens, Cor the county au
thorities probably will take full adj
vantage of the chance thus given
them.

The recent Dallas lynching should
whitewash the Cairo affair in that
line. Part of the mob entered the
court house, made the officials there
prisoners, took the negro that was
on trial and pitched him out of sec.

low. He was then taken to street
arch and hanged, the body afterwards
being burned.
This lynching was an exhibition
of contempt Of OF courts such as was
never before seen in America. Had
.it occurred in Cairo, the press Of the
country would yet be bowling about
1T, for II is and always has been the
fashion TO abuse Cairo. But the Dial
las Incident has been commented on
but slightly, compared with the at
.tention Cairo received recently. Dial
las has the good luck to be well
spoken of generally; 1t is not thu
fashion to abuse that city. And VET
there occurred the most fragrant de
fragrant defiance OF law and The
courts OF which there Is record II
the annals of lynching.
The criminal law and courts are In
tended for the regulation of human
beings, to restrain them from thu
commission Of crime. Beings like tn,
murderer OF Miss Pelley and the Dal
las ilend are not deemed human, bu
are viewed as brutes.; their deed
mark them as such and lynchers
with all their sympathizers, believ
/ they should have the treatment give
mad dogs that run in the streets
The law and the courts, II they ar
resorted to in the faith that the latte
will perform their. duty inexorabl,
