Poultry Pickings.

Keep the egg record up every day.
If you skip one day even the rest will
be a guess. and guessing isn't business.
Trap nests are not expensive. but
they are very essential to the well di-
rected poultry farm. BY using trap
nests you can keep a record OF the
eggs.
The profit in poultry raising for
market lies in Matching early. pushing
the chickens forward as rapidly as
possible and marketing them early in
the season.
It will not do to allow ducks 10 share
the common lot OF poultry in general
not that they require more attention.
but rather a different manner Of
handling and feeding.
Many people are realizing the profit
IN raising heavy geese. as they are
worth more a pound than the lighter
breeds. and every year there is more
demand for the Toulouse.
A hen should be fed some grain that
she doesn't have to scratch for. Al
though exercise is necessary to keep
her in good health, she needs time to
rest and dust herself in the middle Of
the day.
Treatment for roup: One ounce per-
manganate Of potash to three pints OF
water for submerging the head. For
drinking purposes dilute one pint OF
the above mixture in three or four
pints Of water
Onions chopped fine and mixed with
the hens food occasionally will pro-
mote health. Onions are a great poul-
try tonic, and they are relished by
fowls old and young. Fan Matched
chicks tumble over one another TO get
their feed when onions are mixed
with it.
Low Wages and Little Work.
Wages are not high in India. A ma
tive switchman on a railway and the
native servant In private family re-
ceive rupees. or about S190. a
month. The farm hand receives much
less. or about 4 rupees. or S1.06 a
month. OF course wages vary I'm diff
ferent sections. and there is a some
what upward tendency in prices now.
However. the missionaries told me
that you paid about as much for labor
in India as you do in america; that
one man in America would do as
much as whole company in India

THIEF DIMINISHES
 THE JAFFE STOCK
Jewelry Store Robbed of About One Thousand Dollars Worth
 of Goods

The store of the Jaffe Jewelry company was footed by a burglar some time dur ing Thursday night. The thief took be- tween $500 and 5000 worth of jewelry from the cases. The loss was not discov- cred until yesterday morning, when em- ployes of the store opened it for the day. The police were at once notified and de- tectives went to work on the case. but up to an early hour this morning nothing had been learned of the thieves.
 There was no sign that any of the locks had been tempered with, and the detec- tives believe that the thief used a pass key to obtain entrance into the store. He is thought to have left by the rear en- trance. None of the very valuable jew eiry was stolen, as it was locked in the large safes, but a large amount of the smaller trinkets were stolen.
 A list of the stolen goods follows: For ty-two gold filled bracelets, seven gold filled lockets and chains, 56 gold filled la dies lockets and chains. 24 solid gold tic clasps, 24 watch fobs, and six dozen silver watches, valued at sl and g.

CONVICT WHITAKER OF HE|NOUS CRIME Alleged Victims Are Mere
 Children MORE CASES PENDING Trial of Former New Orleans Chief of Police Has Shocked City and
 Entire Country-To Be
 Sentenced Today
MORE CASES PENDING

New Orleans, May 19.-Edward S leans as chief of the city police de- partment. was convicted late today of one of the most heinous crimes ever brought before a jury In this city criminal abuse of a 12-year-old girl half dozen other indictments of a similar nature involving even youn ger girls, are pending against Whitaker
 Whitaker probably will be sentenced tomorrow
 Samuely Aensbacher, Mrs. Mary Me Cracklin and Miss Mae Ragas, three of Whitaker's witnesses, were ordered un- der arrest immediately after the ver- dict was announced by District Attor- ney Adams who said he would file charges of perjury against them be- fore the grand jury.
 Not since the sensational Lamana Kidnapping has any case attracted the attention of the city and state as has the Whitaker trial. Because of the ten der ages of Whitakers alleged victims, and their large number, there was a strong feeling against the former in speetor of police, but at no time was there apprehension of mob violence.
 Whitaker, a one-time political boss, has caused excitement in the city before. Sev- eral years ago, following criticisms in the Morning World against the police de- partment, Whitaker, then chief of police, took a squad of officers to the World building and proceeded to shoot up the editorial rooms.
