TO BUILD POULTRY HOUSES
Almost Any Material-Three I'M
portant Essentials.

A poultry house can be successfully
constructed of almost any material as
lumber, brick, stone, adobe, sod or &C
ment and even dugout will answer
very well. Many of our fanciers put
too much money into the buildings AL
that Is necessary is that the houses
are warm, properly ventilated and
we'll lighted. The wall does not need to
be doubled providing the single one Is
tightly constructed With a frame
house one thickness of good matched
lumber such as drop siding, flooring OF
shiplap is all that is necessary. 1t is a
good plan to build the outside wall OF
some of the cheaper materials than
matched lumber-such as barn siding
with battons-and then lath and plas
ter on the inside or line 1t with build
ing paper, preferably tar paper. This
makes warm house, which Is some
what more expensive than a single
walled but does not present 80 good an
outside appearance. However, for a
good cheap house that presents a good
appearance, there Is nothing better
than the single wall. covered with drop
siding.

SYNOPSIS.

Mad" Dan Maitland, on reaching his
New York bachelor club, met an attrac-
i've young woman at the door. Janitor
OHagan assured him no one had been
within that day. Dan discovered wom-
ans finger prints in dust on his desk.
along with a letter from his attorney.
Maitland dined with Bannerman, his at
torney. Dan set out for Greenfields to
get his family jewels. During his walk
10 the country seat, he met The young
woman in gray, whom he had seen leav-
Ing his bachelors club Her auto had
broken down. He fixed it. BY ruse she
lost him. Maitland. on reaching home,
surprised lady in gray, cracking the safe
containing his gems. She. apparently,
took him for a well-known crook, Daniel
Anisty. Half-hypnotized. Maitland opened
his safe, took therefrom the Jewels, and
gave them to her, first forming part
nership in crime. The real Dan Anisty,
sought by police of the world, appeared
on the same mission. Maitland overcame
MN. He met the girl outside the house
and they sped on to New York in her au-
to- He had the jewels and she promised
to meet him that day. Maitland received
Mfr. Snaith," introducing himself as a
detective. To shield the girl in gray,
Maitland, about to show him the jew
els, supposedly lost was felled by blow
from "Snaith's'' cane. The latter proved
to be Anisty himself and he secured the
gems. AnistN who was Maitland's dou-
Bile, masqueraded as the latter. The
criminal kept Maitland's engagement with
the girl in gray. He gave her the gems,
after falling in love at first sight. They
We're to meet and divide the loot. Matt
land revived and regretted missing his
engagement. Anisty, masquerading as
Maitland, narrowly avoided capture
through mysterious tip. The girl in gray
visited Maitland's apartments during his
absence and returned gems, being dis
covered on return. Maitland. without
cash. called up his home and heard a
woman's voice expostulating. Anisty
disguised as Maitland. told her his rea
identity and realizing himself tricked
tried to wiring from her the location OF
the gems. Then he proposed marriage. A
crash was heard at the front door. Matt
land started for home. He found Anisty
and the girl in his rooms. Again he over
whelmed the crook, allowing him to es-
cape to shield the Young woman.

that he substituted himself for the
man who had escaped from Higgins
and eliminated all mention OF the gray
girl, his statement was exact and con-
vincing. AS he came down to the mo-
ment when he had called up from the
Bartholdi and heard mysterious
sounds in his fiat. substantating his
story by indicating the receiver that
-dangled useless from the telephone,
even Hickey was staggered.
But not beaten. When Maitland
ceased speaking the detective smiled
superiority to such invention. Very
pretty" he conceded. "Yeh en- tell it
all to the magistrate tomorrow morn

think up yarn explainin how it come
that crook like Anisty made three
attempts in one day to steal some
jewels, nd didn't get 'em. Where
were they all this time?"
In safe-keeping," Maitland lied
manfully, with furtive glance toward
the alcove.
"Whose?" pursued Mr.. Hickey true
ulently
Mine" with equanimity. Serious

"Yeh done it for a blind. Nd that's

juncture O'Hagan put in an appear

ALL MATTER OF PROPINQUITY
It Is the Event Near at Hand That
Counts Most in Everything.

The death of hundreds of people In
a distant part of the country from
where we live hardly arouses more
than passing interest and the more OF
less sudden taking away of thousands
of lives in some far remote land
evokes no more than a word of sym
pathy from those long distance
away. But the single death near al
hand, the funeral across the street
makes the strongesthossible mark on
the mind.
Propinquity, in that as in everything
else, is what counts The death in the
family cuts into the heart for years.
If accompanied by details that make 1t
horror, the shock often remains with
the survivors to the end of their own
lives. II the lost relative has met a
violent death, by accident or other
wise, the anguish of those left behind
Is all the more poignant and endur-
ing. Worst of all. and most lasting in
its effect upon the survivors, is the
death where unexpected financial dis
tress or ruin follows the loss of the
family head. 1t Is a wretched home
circle for many year when the chief
is taken away, leaving only debts,
with no property, not even little In
surance policy, behind.

FLOWER is QUITE POPULAR
cladiolus Is One Of Best Summer.
Flowerlng Bulbs-PIant About Same
Time as Sweet Corn.
CBy LEROY CADY1

CBy LEROY CADYO
One of the best summer Towering
bulbs is the gladiolus. The bulbs
may be purchased from any reliable
nurseryman or scotsman for from one
to three dollars per hundred, for the
conimoner mixed bulbs, up to several
dollars a dozen for the more fancy
bulbs.
They should be planted about the
same time sweet corn is planted, and
given much the same cultivation as
any other garden crop. Plant three
TO four inches deep. in rows thirty
Inches apart, and six or eight inches
apart In the rows.
The blooms may be cut when the
first bloom opens, and the buds will
continue to open for week or two,
If placed In water. At the end Of the
growing season, dig and dry the bulbs
until the bulbs and bulblets can easily
be separated. Store in any cellar
where they will not get wet or dry
out. The small bulblets may be saved
AMI sowed like peas in the spring
producing Towering plants in about
two years.

Royal Chickens of Japan.

"The most beautiful and extraor.
binary chickens in the world are those
bred by the royal family of Japan, the
privilege of raising them not being
accorded to any of the Mikado's sub.
jects," said Mr.. l.. j. De Courcey of
Yokohama. These chickens are cele.
brated for the wonderful growth of
their tail feathers, full grown roos-
ter's tail often reaching length Of
20 feet. The tail is of a lovely deep
blue shade, while the body is buff. and
about the neck is white ring. A pair
of these chickens has been known to
sell to wealthy Englishman for
$1,000 on condition that he would take
them out of the country.
II believe that ere long the species
will entirely disappear, as l heard be-
fore leaving Japan that 1t was the in.
tention of his majesty to cease their
breeding"

Care Of the Incubator.

II you use an incubator you must
practically sleep with it-that is, you
must watch 1t day and night, and
after you have thoroughly learned all
that the manufacturer tells you in the
directions on the machine you must
use your own common sense and com.
ply with the varying conditions OF
climate. When the youngsters come
out Of the shell they, too, must be
watched every day and be cared for in
every detail all Of the time. Young
chickens cannot be raised by any per.
son who is frequently away from
home for long intervals. One must be
on the job all the time.

O'Hagan, seduction incarnated, in the

The early morning air breathed chill
but grateful to his fevered brow. Odd
ly enough, in view of the fact that he
had INDUCED in no very violent exer-

fusely. Now and again he saw fit to
pause, removing his hat and utilizing
large soiled bandana with grim
abandon.
At such times his face would be up
turned, eyes trained upon the dim in
finites beyond the pale moon-smitten
sky. And he would sigh profoundly
not the furnace sigh of lover think

and moving sigh of the man of years
and cares who has drunk deep of that
cup of bitterness called Unappreclated
Genius.

Hints for the Hoo Raiser.

If the litters begin to run down in
number and size the fault is seldom
to be found with the boar. but 1t gen.
orally lies with the SOW.
More small hogs have probably been
marketed in the past two years than
ever before during the same time.
When hog reaches 200 pounds in
weight 1t requires extra good care and
an expert feeder to continue to lay
on flesh at profit.
Too many farmers have an aversion
to feeding hogs in cold weather be.
cause 1t is an unpleasant job and sell
OFF their herd early and then when
the weather becomes good haul their
corn to market
