The BiIlionDolIar Hen.

Hurrah for the American hen. Let
the whfte-headed eagle proudly spread
his wings as the unchallenged bird
of freedom; let the pompous turkey
strut and gobble with tail ~outspread
as Thanksgiving approaches; but let
the humble barnyard fowl ascend the.
throne as the rightful queen Of
feathered tribes. She it is who a
raised the poultry products of the
United States to an annual value OF
a billion dollars. This is perhaps the
most astounding item in the account
of our national prosperity at the pres
ent time.
The little brown hen has beer &C
ing about her work quietly for the last
ten years with marvellous results. The
Secretary of Agriculture quite artoT
ished the country in 1900 by assert
ing that the annual value of poultry
and eggs was 280,000,000 Five year
later it was announced that the in
dustrious hen and her ally, the in
cubator. had increased the po1ltry
products of the country at half a b.
lion dollars. This made her an ae-
tive competitor for precedence with
the wheat crop.
1nr0G years IdI6I Ch0 pOu1bAS Pr
ducts, including eggs, reached the
value of 100000, 900. This ratio OF
increase has been kept up until the
billion dollar mark has been reach
ed. Poultry and eggs now surpass
in value the wheat crop by 80 per
| cent. According to the latest crop
report, winter and spring wheat will
Weld a total of 702, 88O,800 bushels, sc
that even with dollar wheat the gold
en- cereal is ~outclassed by poultry and
eggs. Cotton will fall far short OF
a billion dollar crop.
Consequently the little Drown hen
has no other competitor in the field
! than corn, which no doubt she will
proceed to overtake with persistence
| and speed just as she has quietly but
surely overtaken wheat and cotton
and left them behind in the a c Tbs
United States may boast of a CO..
crop worth in round figures two bill
lion dolalrs, but the American he~
seems determined to give the ccrrf~
something else to boast about. Char
ticleer with masculine arrogance w9
probably claim to himself all the cre9.
it with a louder, imperious. cla"-
ion-toned "ccck-a-doodle doo!" But
nobody will be deceived.

Negroes SKULL FOILs BULLET.
Steals Trousers from Police Station
Missile from Officers Weapon Only
InfIictS ScaID Wound.

Chicago, Aug. 2.-Evidently N
sidering a pair of trousers of more
value than q mans life, Frank Smith
a negro policeman, shot Wallace Fran
els, also a negro, in the head yester-
day. The thickness of Francis skull
is said by physicians to be the only
thing which saved his life. Francis,
it is charged took the trousers from
the mounted squad police station.
Smith saw Francis steal the trousers,
ran after him, caught him and was
bringing him back, when according
to the officers story the captive
broke away. Thereupon Smith shot
at him. The bullet struck Francis
%squarely in the center of the fore
head. He dropped and an ambu-
lance took him to st. Lcs1ke's hosni-
tai. There it was found that the
bullet had no more than pierced his
scalp.

The Ideal crcst.

When visiting friends or relatives a
guest should adapt herself as well as
possible tr her new envirGnment and
BRING 10 Earring uete or L..1ue disturb
ance into the family circle. There are
so many little attentions that can bring
comfort and joy into q household. If
a hostess feels that her guest needs
constant entertaining and amusement
and special service she will not wish
t. repeat her invitation so soon again
Of course no one needs to be re-
minded that an invitation TO spend a
few days or a few weeks under an
others roof is a great compliment, and
that it is the duty OF the guest to do
all that he or she can to show APP
probation of the fact by entering into
all of the festivities with enthusiasm
and interest. At the same time one
u be careful to give as little trouble
as possible. especially in a house where
only n maid is employed. For the
time being the guest is a member. OF
the family.

Dynamite Used.

Eatontor, Ca, Aug. 3.-A number
have visited the experimental cot
tom patch of j.. NJ. Spivey, of this
county. 1t will be remembered that
this special field was heavily dyna-
mfted preparatory to planting. spe-
cial methods were used in blowing
and fertilizing and the cotton was
planted in squares,
Despite tire fact of adverse GRO
conditions and ~dToughts, the match
today is a sight that wuold dc any
farmers eyes good and reflect credit
on the Mississippi delta. The plants
are CT fine height, color and well
fruited. That it will result in a
splendid yield and e1en exceed the
anticipations of Mr.. Spivey is now
undoubted.

Good Form Don'ts.

Don't attempt TO wear your stock
collar without having it carefully
boned and don't depend on pins to
keep it fastened and in place. But
tons and %buttonholes or hooks and
eyes will answer the purpose much
better and are not difficult to adjust,
Don't wear quantities of cheap false
hair pufs. curls, etc. False hair is not
to be utterly despised, for the girl
whom nature has neglected TO endoW
with an abundance of tresses needs a
little, but do choose it carefully and
be sure that it matches your own hair.

To the inexperienced traveller it
might seem strange that there is a
proper way Of carrying a suit case.
But to the veteran tourist. who has
visited many ports and chimes. it will
seem strongly creditable. The suit

Park is up and-arunin'. It's bound
to be a source of endless amusement
to the children. Take the dummy to

MADE CITY OF TENEMENTs.

How San Francisco Missed Glorious
Opportunity in Rebuilding After

In every city the cry or regret for
the mistakes Of the past is heard.
says the Survey. But what if a city
built on the hills-a city of sunshine
and sea-given b~reezes, swept clean
by fire, to be built new in this Tween
tieth century? Surely the builders
would grasp their ~unriyaled oppor-
tunity. What is San Francisco's re-
ply-a city of small homes, a city of
gardens? No. A city of tenements.
Looking back to April II, 1906, one
sees whole districts covered with
small houses, vine clad, fragrant with
flowers. On April Is the fire swept
the city, and before a month had
passed the builders were at work.
Fast they built. Shelter was needed,
~expediency and desire for gain we're
paramount, and the smoking ruins
we're covered with poorly construct
ed buildings, several families crowd
ing into a space adequate for one.
In less than a year thoughtful men
and women realized that San Fran.
cisco was face to face with a housing
problem and that no law existed to.
check the increasing abuses.
Inflated land values based on earn
ing capacity of a small lot covered
by a three-family building in place.
of the former cottage have induced
much of the rapid rebuilding of San
Francisco. For not alone in the
poorer districts, but in every quarter
hof the city, apartment houses, mats
multiple buildings of every type have
superseded the single family house.
