girlhood lost, her womanhood won in

Taft Hears Of
 Fractional Row
Alleged That Postmaster Gen eral Hitchc oek ard Secretary
 HilleS Are at Odds

Washington , July Most of the prominent federal office holders in the State of Alabama invaded the White House yesterday and laid be- fore President Taft such tale of Re- publican factional woe that politicians in the capital were promptly affected to see the beginning of a lively row between Postmaster General Frank H. Hitchcock and C. D. Hilles. the pres idents secretary the two leading po- litical advisers of the administration
 According to the Alabamans, MT. Hitchcock is behind the candidacy of P. M. Long for Republican State chairman. Long has the backing also of P. D. Barker. Republican national committeeman and Postmaster at M J. bile an acknowledged friend of the postmaster general. MT. Hilles is said to Ee supporting the candidacy of J. o. Thompson, collector of internal revenue for Alabama and for many years Republican State chairman.
 President Taft told the delegatio that he expected to settle the ques- tion today. It is understood that for purposes of distriE utine patronage the state will be divided into two sections, one to be controlledsby each faction. . Pot.l Mir. Hitchcock and MT. Hilles denied that there has been any trou- ble between them over the Alabama situation. MT. Hitchcock reiterated the statement that he is out of poli- tics for good, and MT. Hilles declared he hnd no row with any one about appointments in that state
 Politicians here. are interested, how ever, as to how the State chairman ship will be settled. The president may take no hand in the fight o-er < the chairmanship but it is acknowl- edged that Republicans in the State are entitled to know 'who is wh o' in Washington when it comes to con- ducting the next presidential cam paign MT. Hilles has taken a, strong interest in political affairs ever since he assumed office last April and to- days developments were not unex- pected. An open clash between the cabinet member and the president s secretary is not regarded as imminent.

Gather Ye Rose Bugs Before The
 Poultry Does

Many people have suffered severe losses from chickens and ducklings eating common insect, the rose chafer on rose bug" through the mouth of June or the early part of July. Some have seen the chickens eata these insects, and after they have died, have cut open their crops to find them filled with mass of rose-chafers, for chicks are very fond of these insects and usually eat one after another until their crops are filled to the full capacity, resulting in their death in a few hours. Post mortem examinations have revealed as high as thirty-ive of these insects in a single crop. This has led to the conclusion that the mass of bee ties caused 8 clogging of the crop, and that death resulted from the chick en's being "crop bound; others have concluded that the sharp spines on the legs of the insects had torn the walls of the crop and thus killed them.
 Many such losses have been re- ported to the Storrs Agricultural Ex- pertinent Station. For this reason, experiments in feeding rose-chafers to the last three seasons. The results of these experiments have shown that in every case where chickens ate any considerabl number of rose-chafers they were deemed to die inside of from four to ten hours These speedy deaths led to the trial of the feeding of other chickens with the juices crushed from these insects and slight Iy diluted with water. In every case where the juice was strong the chick en died in from four to eight hours and the mortality differed according to the strength of the juice fed with the medicine dropper.
 These experiments have been re- peated several times, leading to the conclusion that the rose-chawer con- tains a virulent poison to chickens and ducklings and that there is enough of it in ten of these small beetles to kill la chicken under five weeks old Old hens seem to be able to withstand this poison, though they eat the insects with great voracity.
