POULTRY NOTES.

Gull out the undesirable stock and
sell for roasters.
Lice and sunshine combined will
be too much for the little chicks.
Take the brakes out Of the flock
that you keep for laying purposes.
Just one way to win with poultry
make Il a business, not a plaything.
Some hens know their master
good deal better than he knows them.
Don't kill your young turkeys by be-
ing too kind to them by feeding too
heavily.
Duck. Matched about harvest time
will be right on hand with their eggs
next spring.
One old hen may Offset all that two
young ones can do in the way OF
bringing you success.
Pick out the young chickens that
you do not want to keep and get
them ready for market.
The growing cockerels should be
separated from the pullets and fed
well to fit them for market.
A bare floor. kept clean, is way
ahead of a Uttered floor where the
straw or chaff is full of filth.
One good reason why people fail
with poultry is that they try TO keel
too many in the space they have.
The chicks Matched in August ant
September will make November fry.
or broilers II they have the right fooC
and care.
The March pullets should begin t.
lay. Do not let them become owe
fat. as it will put them back in max
| ing a start.
| Often the seeds of next winter
sickness are sown by allowing tn,
young stock to be overcrowded ant
overheated at night.
Cut a good lot of second growtl
clover, chop 1t up fine. cure 1t out o
the sunshine-and then gather in tn
eggs as your reward next winter whel
you feed 1t.
You cannot expect much from tut
keys, unless they have plenty of roor
over which to range. They canno
bear close confinement any bette
than we can.
Just because hen is a yearling
not the sole reason why you shout
keep her. Is she good yearling
That is the question. Let the answe
decide her fate.

lJnneccsasry Loss.

The loss in this country due to the
actual spelling of eggs constitutes an
enormous waste. which could in a
large measure be saved were eggs
given reasonable care from the time
Of laying until they reach the con-
sumner. There are two main reasons
why such care should be given: %
Lack of realization OF the Importance
Of the egg crop and ignorance of the
correct method of caring for the prod
uct. (2) Because with our present
system the individual farmer. and In
the west the individual storekeeper as
we'll, are not financially rewarded for
their greater pains nor held account
able for carelessness, which may
amount to actual dishonesty.

THERE WITH A REPUTATION
Doubtful and Humiliated Hubby Now
Probably Believes Wife Can
Keep a Secret.

The late William Rotch Wister,
the father of American cricket, might
also be said to have been a godfather
of the feminist movement" said a
woman writer at the Acorn club in
Philadelphia
"Mr. Wister," she continued, "abomi-
mated that type of husband who treats
his wife like child, refusing to take
her into his confidence. ! once heard
Mr.. Wister tell story about Ger
mantown man of that sort.
THE man came back from a bust
ness meeting wherein the future well
fare of himself and his family was
vitality involved, but he declined to
tell his wife what had been the meet
ing's outcome.
"'Oh, no. he sneered, 4 can't tell
you anything You'd repeat it if
did. You, being a woman, are consti
tutionally unable to keep a secret
But the wife, with a quiet smile
retorted: George, did l ever tell the
secret Of how you were led astray
that summer the church conference
met in Chicago and got arrested in E
saloon for biting off the bartender's

Keen the Soil Rich.

Rich soil is always a warm. we'll
ventilated soil. Every seed requires
favorable degree of heat before it
will terminate. and the presence of
air is necessary in order to supply the
giving" oxygen. A seed planted
in a vacuum with the proper degree of
heat and moisture will not terminate,
and the same results often occur
when seeds are planted in very wet
or waterlogged soil. because the air
is largely excluded from a soil in such
conditions. The moral is, have your
soil rich.

Euu Fertility.

A matter which invariably causes a
good deal of trouble every winter is
the production of infertile eggs-that
Is. of eggs that contain no germ. and
as such they are. of course, quite val
ueless for Matching purposes. This is a
serious matter to those who require
the eggs for incubation, and If the
complaint continues It means that
there vii be very few spring chickens.

Never feed whole grains to chickens
from a trough. The stronger and the
holder will get more than their share
and more than is good for them, while
the weaker ones will be underfed.
Scatter all grain over as wide an area
as possible If in narrow quarters. go
to some pains to bury it in straw OF
litter or even to SOW 1t several inches
deep in the ground.

Another Year-Other Gossip.

to o. Thanksgiving day, is certain from
the fact that practically every critic
who is placing the elevens in their
positions in the ranking Of the schools
is showing the Tar Heels down to fifth
or sixth place The showing of the
North Carolina eleven against Virginia
was far different from what was gen.
orally expected. There were few but
thought that it had chance to win
from the Charlottesville team, and that
it should lose by such one-sided
score was something that was never
even dreamed Of. Just what reason
team to show according to the expected
form is hard to tell.
There Is no doubt that Bocock turned
out a better team than has represented
fall down in it's final games after going
through the season without defeat is
something hard to explain. The only rea-
son that can be ascribed for the turn Of
fortune is that the players were keyed
up to such point of nervous tension that
they went all to pieces at the moment
when the most was expected OF them.
Such things happen at times, and IT Is
about the only thing that will explain
the sudden deterioration in the work Of
the players and the team as whole.
Thorpe, Wendell and Mercer would ap-
pear to compose the strongest backfeld
that could be taken as an all-American
Dalton of the Navy off such an eleven,
but as Wendell and Mercer must be
given places because Of their great
ground-gaining ability. it would seem that
Thorpe has the shade on Dalton for the
other place. While Dalton Is rated as
one of the best kickers and linebreakers
in the country, it is questionable if he
has anything on Thorpe In either Of these
two departments. Possibly he has a shade
the better of him in regard TO line smash
ing, but in the open running game Thorpe
is so much his superior as to make UP
for that. There is one department in
which Thorpe is much the better and that
is in kicking goals from the field. Thorpe
was probably able to place his kicks from
the field over the bars more accurately
than any other man in the country. OF
course, Dalton won his teams all-im-
portant game by employing such tactics
successfully. but straight through the
season his work along that line did not
compare In any way with the Indians.

DETROIT. Mich, December 6.-The

athletes who make living by playing
base ball are asking for additions In their
pay envelopes next year, the owners of
the clubs are refusing them and the
usual I'm through with the game" state
ments are issued, north, east west and
south, wherever the disappointed athlete
may reside.
The larger number of disputes over sal
airy matters in base ball never become
public. Those that are published come
from the players; the owners do not care
to tell about them. Every club in the
country has it's arguments over the sal
airy question just as every business house
has and they are always settled.

GIBBONS A WONDER
Gives Remarkable Boxing Ex-
hibition in Beating Coffey.

NEW YORK, December 6.-Mike Glib
Dons, the St Paul welterweight, and one
OF the greatest # not the greatest man OF
MS weight in the world, showed $50
hght-crazed spectators what a real fighter
was when he made Waller Corey, the
widely heralded California middiewe. gnt
look Ike novice N a one-siaed ten round
bout at the Falrmont Athletic Ciub of the
Bronx last night. In every round Of the
ten Gibbons boat his man unmercifu. ~

Somewhere in the world there may be a

and the way in which he 81 pped leads

the greatest crowd that ever packed the
spacious Fairmont Club laundering it's
applause
He was fast as a streak on his feet
and never once could Coffey corner him.
G bbons' greatest power lay in his punch.
He was ten pounds lighter than Coffey,
who weighed 100 pounds but every time
he landed his short snappy left-hand jab
Coffey's head Topped back on his shout
der b AIDES. The r ght staggered him, out
Cofey's physique saved him.
Coffey shot over a fast left to the head
for the first punch. but Gibbons made
him miss half a dozen leads like an
amateur and snapped home a pretty
counter on each occasion. Gibbons then
PLUNGED in and landed savage left hook
to the jaw and the NATIVE son reeled I'M
der the impact.
In the second round Gibbons rave few
more lessons in the art and almost knock
ed COffev down with short ri"ht to the
taw Coffev locke like an untried novice.
and the little St. Paul boy tented him
into kinks and beat him from corner to
corner.
Coffey also had narrow escape from a
knockout in the third round. He tried to
box cleverly, but Gibbons drove his head
back with pile-driving left and stood
him up with right to the face. Cofey
reeled and stae"ered and like a tiger
Gibbons flew at him and drove him across
the ring with terrific left and right hooks.
Gibbons returned to clever boxing In the
fifth round. but found occasion to knock
his man proegy with savage right jolt
Coffey rallied and tried to battle back.
but he was clay in the hands of master.
The tide flowed toward Coffey for a min
ute in the sixth round, but Mike rallied,
and in the last minute sent Coffey reeline
with a hard right. From then on he more
than evened the score.
The remainder of the contest was only
repetition of the foregoing. Gibbons
slowed down at times, but always was
the master and his science made the
pluneine California bow look foo ish. The
latter tried his right hand for the head.
but Mike slipped the lead by inches and
ripped solid counters to the face and body
at will.
In the final period Gibbons cut loose and
gave one of the greatest exhibitions Of
scientific boxing that New York has ever
seen Coffey was bruised. battered and
beaten from pillar to post. The bell rang
just as Coffey received a volley of lows
that seemed to come from all directions.
