1t is better for the hereafter OF your

place of commercial meat scrap for
my chickens, have plenty of the
milk and would be glad to use 1t IL
it is as good for them.
ANSWER.
Butter milk win, to a certain ex-
tent, take the place of animal food
or meat scrap for your chickens.
The only trouble is that they can
not take enough into their system
to take the place of small amount
of the meat scrap. The commercial
meat scrap usually contains as to
81 per cent of protein, and a small
amount OF this will go so much fur
Their than any other feed you can
possibly give, and it is a very i'm
portant factor in the production OF
eggs. Nothing seems to take the
place Of it. However. milk is a
splendid substitute-especial IL
you will use it instead of water in
making up the soft feeds.

His Head Was Hard.

It Is common belief that the me-
gro's head is hard, capable Of with
standing almost any blow.
The following story told by promi-
nent young dentist of Danville, ILL.,,
would seem to indicate something Of
the kind anyhow. Two negro men
were employed on tearing down q
three-story brick building. One ne
gro was on top of the building taking
off the bricks and sliding them down
a narrow wooden chute to the ground,
some thirty feet below, where the
other was picking them up and piling
them.
When this latter negro was stoop-
Ing over to pick up brick the former
accidentally let one fall, striking him
directly on the head.
Instead of Its killing him, he merely
looked up, without rising, and said,

Senator Stone of Missouri, and mi
nority member of the committee, an
nounced his intention of supporting
the measure on the ground that it
would be in the line of wise and pro-
gressive craftsmanship.
Speaking briefly for second time,
Senator Bailey stated that while op.
posed to the bill, he would not seek

II am ready to vote on it as soon
as the Lorimer case is disposed Of"
he said. IF the legislation should re-
duce the cost of living, it would do so
at the expense of the farmers along
the northern boundary and should be
greatly concerned in observing their

responsible for it's enactment"
The bill went on the calendar,

take it up.

HUNGARIAN NO1LEMAN ESCAPES
SERIOUS INJURY IN
CHICAGO.
LECTURE ENDS IN A TURMOIL
Make-BeIieve Bombs Used In Unsuc-
cessfuI Effort to Start a Panic
Slavs and Hunqarians Start
Trouble.

Chicago, Feb. 25.-Differences of
opinion as to what ought to be done
with Hungary turned Michigan avenue
Count Albert Apponyi, the Hungarian
stateman, had delivered an address to
the United Hungarian societies in
Music hall at the Fine Arts building.
The meeting itself was turned topsy-
turvy by delegation of Hungarian
socialists and Slavs, who had distrib-
uted themselves in various part of the
house. These attempted to drown out
the speaker, shouted defiance at the
police, and successfully opposed ejec-
ton from the building.
Outside the building were 1000 dis
appointed men and women who failed
to get into the hall. A spirit of pro.
test against the Apponyi policies got
sympathy from the crowd, and rioting
started at once. John Sipons and
man who gave the name Stekyick
were arrested charged with melting
riots.
When Count Apponyi left the build
ing to go to his automobile the crowd
sot up jeering cry of CAB suk," CAB
suk," which was translated to mean
Down with him" ..
A small band of Hungarian socialists
started the cry and then it was taken
up by 600 voices. The first riot &C.
Cured in front of the Chicago club,
when an Apponyi champion slugged
man who had spoken slightingly to the
Hungarian statemsan. Hats flew right
and left.
On the opposite corner of Van Buren,
street and Michigan avenue the most
serious brawl took place. Here half a
dozen socialists were attacked by as
many Apponyi supporters, and blood
from bruised noses spattered over the
spectators. Officers made one arrest
at this corner, and what threatened
to make a good-sized riot was broken
up.
The crowd dispersed only to form
again at the corner of State and Van
Buren, streets another slgging match
on Wabash avenue having been broken
up by spectators-when someone
shouted "DoWn with Apponyi!"
After ordere had been restored
around the Fine Arts building the po-
lice found near a side entrance two
metallic tubes which it was declared
were bombs. They were taken to
the Harrison street police station,
where examination showed that the
missiles We're only make believe in

When opened the supposed bombs |
were found to consist of heavy black |
cardboard tubes, capped at each end
and wound with a few strands of |
cord. Inside was a small quantity |

siles, that of dangerous machines
evidently was expected to precipitate
a panic, but the rioting prevented
chance of their being thrown.
