Dog Buried in FLAG.

Washington, D. C.-Because United
States soldiers on duty with the aero
nautical corps at College Park, Md,
are reported to have recently buried
a dog wrapped in the American flag,
Mrs. Isabel Worrall Ball, chairman OF
the Woman's Relief corps national
committee for the prevention OF the
dissertation of the flag, has written a
vigorous protest to Secretary of War
Stimson.
The dog, which was the mascot OF
the aviation school, was accorded a
funeral with full military honors. in
Guiding sounding of taps" In her let
ter to the secretary of war, in which
she demands that the guilty men be
reprimanded, Mrs. Ball brands their
action as "repugnant" and adds:
The symbol of the great power and
authority of the United States is too
lofty a thing to be used as a shroud
for dog"

man who had lost his life in the
tragedy, and seated upon the speak
ers' platform were 20 survivors who
were rescued after having been I'M
prisoned one week in the burning
mine. Among the speakers was John
P. White, president Of the United
Mine Workers.
Cherry today is greatly changed
from what it was two years ago
Robbed of one-half of its male inhab-
itants almost in the twinkling OF the
eye, the town was crushed for time,
but has since been slowly recovering,
thanks TO the liberalIty of the Ameri-
can nation.
The sum OF $316,424 was contributed
for the relief of the widows and
fatherless children. The Illinois leg
islature appropriated 100000. Up to
June 1, 1911, the commission in
charge had distributed $81,498 leav-
ing most of the remainder in trust
as a pension fund for the relief of
those robbed of their bread winners.
Relief was afforded every widow and
every dependent child, and they will
be taken care of for life if necessary.
Placed on a cash basis, no greater
charitable work has ever been &C
complished, nor has any relief move
ment been handled as economically
or as successfully.

ing necessary to fill the hoppers only
once or twice a week.
A very convenient sized house for
so to 70 chicks is shown in the &C.
companying illustration. 1t is six by
three and one-haf feet on the ground,
three feet high in front and two feet
behind Iron roofing or building paper
may be used, both on the top and on
the sides. For floors, one-inch match
ed stuff is best. The bottom may be
made of rough boards, the upper side
planed. In the summer the chicks
need an opening about ten inches wide
running the entire length of the front
This may be covered on the inside
with one-inch mesh poultry WIRE
Where the door is full high, three teel,
it is much handler to have a screened
opening ON the top, ten inches III
width, as shown IN the drawing. Two
men can carry such houses from place
to place or one person can SHIFT them
by moving one end at a time. by Us

outlay for food by converting into flesh

Young chickens can be removed from
the house or the breeders when about
six weeks old. If taken from hens
they should be busted thoroughly for
lice at that time and if not ALREADY
marked should be marked with poul.

At first they should be confined to
temporary yard by wire netting
not less than two feet high. A con-
venient size for this yard is one rod
each way. Of course, the larger the in
closure, the more grass there will be
for the chicks. It is best to keen
them here for three or four days, or
a week, depending upon their age
and the distance they are removed
from their former location. When
they become accustomed to the place
