JURY FINDS CHICAGO LAWYER
NOT GUILTY OF OFFERING
BRIBE IN BROWNE CASE
Attorney Was Charged With Inducing
Juror in Trial of Lee O'NieIl
Browne, Charged with Bribing Leg
islators, TO Hold Out for AcquittaI,

Chicago.-Attorney Charles e.
Erbstein was found not guilty of
having bribed a juror to prevent the
conviction on second trial of Lee
O'Neil Browne, minority leader in
The state legislature, who was
charged with bribing Representative
Charles A. White to vote for William
Lor1mer for United States senator.
1t was Erbstein's second trial and
the jury was out less than an hour.
A disagreement was the result of
the first trial. Erbstein acted as his
own counsel in the second case.
The specific charge against Erb-
stein, who was counsel for Browne
in his second trial, at which Browne
was acquitted, was that he had
bribed Juror Grant McCutcheon to
hold out for verdict of mot guilty"
While attorneys were selecting the
jury for the first trial, attorney Frb-
stein brought charges before the
Chicago Bar association that State
Attorney Wayman had attempted to
bride juror while practicing in the
criminal courts several years ago.
Erbstein later withdrew the charges
and the bar association ACQUITTED
Wayman.

POULTRY HOUSE IN WINTER
No Matter What Style of Structure Is
Used Plenty of Sunshine Is Quite
Essential.
CBY W NJ KEEL .EY }

Whatever style Of poultry house is
dsed, we find it highly essential that
one side be well supplied with win
doWs so that plenty of light and sun
shine reach the corners of the build
ing. With no place but open trees for
the flock and the mercury down pref
ty low, the fountain of eggs will be
completely frozen UP. At all times,
when they are kept inside, give the
birds fresh earth occasionally in order
that they may replenish their grind
ing organs with pebbles. They should
also have dust to dust themselves in
and be fed meat in some form, either
nearby market, or purchased animal
foods. A boiled liver from a butcher,
cut up fine, is excellent A little
chopped cabbage or mashed vegetable
food with ground bones, crushed
oyster shell, etc, will complete a diet
that should produce excellent results.
Feed regularly every morning and
the hens will be found waiting for
their breakfast. Hot buckwheat cakes
and table scraps with a drink of skim
milk occasionally make one of the
best balanced rations that can be
found for few hens. 1t Is my opin-
ion that the fact that few hens pro-
duce better results than a large num-
Der is due in a measure to table
scraps forming a large proportion of
their ration.

NEW YORK is APPLE HUNGRY
Thousand Carloads of Fruit Received
in Gotham During Last Year
Few Statistics.

New York.-That New York Is rap
idly becoming great apple market
is evidenced by the fact that Father
Knickerbocker got away with about
5000 miles of this fruit last year, or
enough to reach nearly twice across
the continent
OF course New Workers did not &C.
tually consume all these millions OF
apples, part of them being shipped to
other apple-hungry districts, but New
Workers nevertheless managed to get
a surprisingly large proportion. Near
ly 1000 carloads of this fruit were re-
ceiyed during the year, some coming
from what is known as the upstate
district and others from points as far
distant as the Pacific coast.
Ten thousand carloads represent
something like twelve miles of cars
and locomotives on the hauling end
The boxes themselves in which the
fruit is packed, figuring 700 to the car,
would, If laid end to end, reach $50
miles and contain enough lumber to
inclose the city's biggest office build
ing
The apples average about 125 to the
box, and the Individual fruit totals IN
the neigh0orhood of 100.000,000.

NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

Il have seen the Cuticura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as q nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and in every in
stance, l always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case in
particular was that of a lady friend
Of mine who, when a child, was af
fiicted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely, breaking out
at intervals with severer torture. She
could not go to school as the disfigure-
ment looked terrible. I told her to get
at once a set Of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only one set she was

with salt rheum in one Of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms of her hands

be so painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use the
Cuticura Remedies which cured her
I have also seen them cure children
Of ringwoTm. The childrens faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck and after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured.
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and I used the Cuticura Oint-
ment. 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
l began to apply the Ointment.
Last May l had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side Of the nail was edging right
down in the side of my toe. l cut
the nail out of the cavity it made, and
Of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. It soothed
1t and in less than ten nights it was
all healed through constant use Of the
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. / have just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering

Western Australia Excited Over Won

Sydney, N. S. W-The richest gold
field ever discovered In this country,
perhaps in the world, seems to have
been unearthed in western Australia,

cross, about half way between Perth
and the Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie

from 10 to 100 ounces to the ton. How
deep the lode goes down, how long it
will last, what it is really worth. are
questions to which only the future can
give satisfactory reply.
For the present all heads, or very
nearly all have been turned. a deliri-
UNI of speculation has set in and the
atmosphere is described as thrilling
ing with intense expectancy" Six
months ago the Bullfnch was practic-
ally unknown. Since then no less
than half q dozen great lodes have
been found on the property, the most
valuable of which is No. 1, which is
reported to have reserves. of ore
amounting to $4,000 tons, estimated,
by the owners at any rate, to be worth
ten ounces per ton.

ty Is Victor in Contest Brought

Madison.-Peter Melton, democrat
OF independence, will retain his seal
as member of the Wisconsin assem-
bly, from Trempealeau county. The
committee on elections has completed
the recount of ballots in the contest
brought by G. G. Haggestad. Melton
received a total vote of 1 ,492, Hagge-
stad 1,428, which gives the former
a majority of Ga, a net gain of 80 as
result of the recount. The attor-
neys in the case agreed to abide by
the result of the recount, and Assem-
blyman Roycraft, chairman of the
committee on elections, will report to
the assembly the findings of the COM

BUILDING JERSEY cow ROUTE
Kansas Farmers Building Electrical
Railroad In Missouri With AMI
NAL as Mark.

Kansas City, Mo.-The farmers who
are building the electric railroad from
Springfield to Joplin with branches
to Mt. Vernon and Pierce City, have
adopted a Jersey cow as their trade
mark and have named their road the
Jersey Cow route. The COW appears
on all the stationery of the company
and Will be spread rampant in yellow
paint on all the rolling stock of the
company
1t is expected that the company's
line will be in operation by the lat
ter part of 1911. Several attempts
were made in years gone by to build
an electric line over the route, but
the regular type Of interurban pro-
moters never could get the farmers
interested. Then J. l. Woodf1n, a re-
tired railroad man who owns a big
farm near Springfield, took up the
plan with his brother farmers and
more than year ago the company
was organized. Now the work is well
| under way.
The stock is all owned by farmers
who will be patrons of the road

EGG Producers.

All authorities are agreed that
wheat or wheat screenings, supple
mented with other things, Is the best
food for egg production, and we may
therefore write down wheat as the
standard hen food, says writer in an
exchange. Corn is objected to by
some on the ground that it is too heat
ing in the summer and too fattening
at all seasons. l have not found 1t so
in my experience. I do not feed it ex-
clusively, but, fed with other grains,
1t is all right. l am now feeding
wheat bran and corn meal mixed with
water, and no hens ever laid better.
When milk is plentiful, l feed wheat,
beans, corn, oats and buckwheat
ground together, mixed with skinned
milk, and it makes splendid egg pro,
ducing food.

HENS CANNOT FEED VERMIN
Best Results Cannot Be Expected if
Pullets Not Furnished With Com
Portable Quarters.
CBy R. G. WEATHERSTONE.,


No use to expect the best results in
the matter of laying if you allow your
pullets to stay in dirty winter quar-
tiers. Get busy with the white-wash
brush and the kerosene spray and
clean, clean, clean. Not only inside
the house, but the premises all
around it.
If you have so pullets for your lay
ing bunch it will take about two
hours to dust them and time cannot
be better spent. Let one person hold
the pullets by the legs while the other
fires Persian insect powder into the
feathers with a powder gun. Get 1t
under the wings, around the head,
neck and every place where the
feathers are soft and fine, for there Is
where the mites and lice love to cud-
die and feast.
Referring to the use of the kero-
sene spray, fill the roosts and all the
cracks around the nests and roofing
with it, for it is there the pestiferous
mites hide. You know body lice re-
main on the fowls all the time, but
the mites seek the roosts and cracks
for moments of seclusion.

1T is A MISTAKE

Many have the idea that anything
will sell If advertised strong enough.
This is great mistake. True,
few sales might be made by advertis-
ing an absolutely worthless article
but 1t is only the article that is
bought again and again that pays.
An example of the big success of a
worthy article is the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartic. This wonderful rec
ord is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made Known through per-
sistent advertising and the mouth-to
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by its friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lie, by marketing fake tablets similar
in appearance to Cascarets, Care
should always be exercised in pur-
chasing well advertised goods, espe-
cially an article that has a national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow a
substitute to be palmed off on you.
