Lawrence, Mass, Sept 30.-The po'
lice and Industrial Workers of the
World paraders fought with knives
and clubs Sunday. Two officers were
stabbed, a number of demonstrators
were clubbed and an 81. w. W." lead
er captured after a hard fight and
then freed. Only two arrests were
made. One shot was fired from the
ranks of the paraders.
Carlo Tresca, of Pittsburg, an ed
itor, who is an organizer of the In
dustrial Workers, was in custody, but
gained his freedom a minute or two
later. Persons who saw Tresca's ar
rest said he was rescued by comrades.
Tresca, with a smile, said the police
let him go. All of the police professed
to be ignorant of the occurrence.
l The clash was quite unexpected.
More than 10000 operatives met at
the railroad station to welcome 700
members of the Industrial Workers Of
the World, who had come from Boston
to participate in a parade to the
graves of Anna Lopizzo and John
RAINY, who were killed during the
strike riots last January After the
visitors had detrained an impromptu
parade was started, turning finally
into Essex street, the main business
thoroughfare of the city.
The parade was informal and no
application had been made for a pa
rade permit. The police, notified that
the operatives were marching, at
tempted to end the demonstration. A
squad of twenty-five officers was sent
to Essex and Lawrence streets. Here
thew threw a line across Essex street
and awaited the arrival of the pro-
cession.
Two large banners were carried by
the marchers. One was inscribed:
"The only Justice-Freedom for Ettor
and Giovannitti." The other boie the

When the head of the parade
reached the officers it halted and an
argument began. The police notified
the marchers that they must disperse
because they had no permit. Those
in the front rank were endeayoring to
'son hack when suddenly the marchers
in the rear pressed forward and the
mill workers tried to pass the police.
They struck right and left at the
officers, who responded by swinging
their clubs. Many paraders were
knocked bleeding to the ground, In
some instances the marchers robbed

EARLY NOTING OF CHICKENS
Western Poultryman Gives Excellent
Method Of Controlling Hens In
Changing Feathers.

Most people believe that IL they can
force their hens TO mott early they
will lay more eggs during the season,
but this is not true. Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters.
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments. but the facts are
not generally known.
Noting hens require q large amount
OF feed containing nitrogen such as oil
meal, meat and other feeds rich in pro-
tein. Noting a be forced by cutting
down the feed of hens as II has been
shown by experiments that seantily
fed hens begin melting earlier than
those on full feed, but the former do
not finish melting much earlier.
Starved hens mott more uniformly
than others and this Is particularly
noticeable IN hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station It was
found that on a basis OF 100 hens the
fed flock produced eggs to the value
OF S2s.97 more than by the starved
flock.
The total income from all the birds
was S27S for the starved flock and
$3.50 for the fed flock, a difference in
favor OF natural melting for the year
Of about sos.
A western poultryman OF long ex
perience gives his method OF controll-
ing noting as follows:
AS soon as the hens are through
laying he turns them out on alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran only, in addi-
ton. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration of grains and meat, giving a
light feed IN the morning and all they
will eat at noon and night. Under
this treatment they finish melting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. BY October /
they are all in good laying condition
and make a profit through the fall
and winter.
