You have all heard Of this kind
Of poultryman if you have not
seen him Thank fortune, his
days are about numbered.
Judging by such a famous trio wos
considered the acme Of perfection by
the huckster He was right in clover
when ne was able to realize double
upon a number Of exhibits.
But the poultryman who bred his
own stock and was exhibiting it, and
knew the value of it, and the value of
winning a prize upon it, would not
stand for such work very long. |, for
one. told the management of one Of
these big fairs that if I could not so
into such an exhibit alone and do bet l.
ter work than this crowd had been
doing for years, it would not cost them
anything. at least. In about two years
] got just such a job. and. while my
work was not perfect by any means |
can tell YOU that no one pair of ducks
got more than one prize. and that
feather legged Wyandottes an
smooth-footed Cochins failed utterly
under my first judging. There were a
lot of kicks registered against my work,
mostly by the fellows who had been
working the three judges to their gain.
Judging System Changes.
The single judge had hard road to
travel the first few years of his ex-
istence as a judge, but it meant the
lettering of the poultry industry, in
which we mere most interested.
When q fair tried the one-man sys-
tenn one time, it was a go" and no
others need apply. These fairs were
great marts Of trade for the thrifty

poultryman who was successful in rails
ing a good lot of thoroughbred stock
each year. He would take a lot of
extra stock along with him, in addition
to his show birds, and was usually sue
cessful in disposing Of them at paying
prices. Times have changed greatly in
the manner of conducting poultry eX-
hibitions. both at the fairs and winter
shows
At the best of our shows these days
everything must be systematic. The
coping uniform: all stock classified ;
entries closed before the stock begins
to arrive; the Cooping attended to
promptly. so that the judging may be
commenced the first day of the show
and completed early in the game, SC
that the prize cards may go up prompt
ly.
The judging is done by the single ex-
pert system An exhibition may have
three or four of these judges employed
but each one Is assigned his special
work to perform so that there is no
balloting or casting of lots among the
judges to see who will win the prizes.
The responsibility is placed and each
Judge must father his own work and
stand or fall with it,
Our exhibitions are not only run on
better and more systematic plans than
in former years, but there is less ten
dency to try to win, irres pective of
quality than used to obtain. 1t is a
question of merit, for merit must win.
No one need hesitate to take hold of
the poultry business in any of its
branches They will find all the posi-
bilities they are looking for, and pleas

limb of his 5-year-old son, complete

run out to where his father was at
work, and was standing at the corn

did not see him until the terrible &C

from Griswold were hurried to the

Loses $1,000 in Card

MEMBERS OF A GANG.
Letter Received by Victim Indicates
Active Organization of 4
Grafters.

Eagle Grove, Sept 20.-Severt
Quinsland, farmer living a few
miles northeast of this city, was
swindled out of $4,000 a few days
ago by couple of sharpers. They
worked an old gag on the unsuspect-
ing gentleman and now he is hold
ing the sack"
Two men came to his place and
wanted to buy land. Mr.. Quinsland
did not care to sell his farm, but
he finally consented to go with them
to look at some land, and he was to
use his Judgment in selecting a
piece. On the way they met what
appeared to be tramp who had a
grip containing large sum of bills.
OF course the cards were next used
and the man accompanying Mr..
Quinsland soon won several thous-
and dollars from the tramp, and Mr.
Quinsland was induced to try his
hand. Checks would not go with
this tramp, and Mr.. Quinsland went
to town and obtained the money,
and he placed it in box.
The tramp soon discovered that
he had forgotten the key to the box,
and he left the box with Mr.. Quins-
land, promising to send the key by
return mail. He did so, accompany
ing 1t with a letter that Mr.. Quins-
land didn't care to read but once,
for it grated against his nervous
system.
or course the prospective land
buyers are not to be found, but as
their letter which accompanied the
key to the box was a stock form, it
is evident that they belong to a
gang, and that 1t Is for the detec-
tives to ferret them out.
Mr.. Quinsland is wealthy farm
er and land owner, a foreigner, and
does not read the English language.

These sanitary measures may not
prevent the disease from getting a
foothold, but it is worth while to do
what have suggested"
{ Dean STANCE says there is no
cause for alarm in Iowa, and that
shipments of horses to local fairs
need be in no way dangerous. So
far the trouble has appeared only in
two or three localities, chief among
them is in the vicinity of Clarinda
in Page county and near Winterset
in Madison county. Since the ap-
pearance of the disease, the veterin-
airy department has been flooded
with letters requesting information
and advice about the disease.

COMING OF FROST
TO END EPIDEMIC
Dean Of Ames Veterinary School
Predicts Relief.

Ames, Sept. 2o.-"When the first
killing frost comes, the danger Of
the spread of the mysterious disease
epidemic among horses in Iowa will
cease" says Dean C. II. STANCE. head
of the veterinary school Of Iowa
State college. 1T Is the concensus
of opinion that this disease, dag
nosed as an inflammation Of the brain
and spinal cord caused by germ, Is
carried in the air. Under those cir
cumstances frost will end the
trouble"
Until frost comes, Dean STANCE
advises farmers and other owners
of horses to observe several simple
precautions against the disease.
This disease is hard to fight" says
Dean STANCE, land not many pre-
-cautionary measures are known. But
these things can be done to good
advantage: Bring the horses in out
of the pasture, keep them in the
barn and put them on dry feed. Al
SO clean the watering troughs once
a week or oftener. disinfecting them
with a strong solution Of quicklime.

CARRYING ON A
GUERRILLA war
Mexican Rebels Are Acting Without
Common Leadership.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 90
Further evidence Of the weakening
Of the Orozco rebellion is convey ed
to the state and war departments in
the latest reports from army officers
and consuls of the movements of the
various rebel leaders operating in
the north of Mexico. These move
ments are so irresolute and indeter-
inmate of purpose as to satisfy Of
fcials that no longer are the various
generals acting under any common
leadership.
Officials here say the reports show
that nowhere do the rebels feel dis
posed to meet the government forces
In action except where they can at
tack some small town or mining
camp garrisoned by force very
much smaller than their own 1t Is
expected this sort of warfare may
be kept up for several weeks or ev-
en- months in view of the superior
mobility Of the we'll mounted rebels,
who are living on the country and
are free from heavy equipment or
artillery.

WOMAN'S AR
REST CAUSED
BY AN ENEMY
Mrs. Helen Pierce Gray Charged
With Concealing Indian
Land Plat.
IS RELEASED UPON BAIL.
Declares Papers Are in Charge
of Department Of
Justice.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 90
MES. Helen Pierce Gray of St. Paul,
Mimi, who as an Investigator of the
Crow Indian affairs for the Graham
committee of the house, was the cen
ter of stormy scenes at the last ses-
sion of congress, was arrested here
yesterday upon complaint of the In
dian office and charged with con-
cealing public records. She was re-
leased upon $500 cash bail furnish
ed by Senator Clapp of Minnesota
and her trial before a United States
commissioner was set for Tuesday.
Specifically, Mrs. Gray was charg-
ed with concealing the allotment
roll of the Grow tribe, covering In
dian lands in Montana. Upon her
arraignment yesterday she declared
she had taken the roll from the In
dian Office with the consent Of for
mer Indian Commissioner Robert G..
Valentine and Judge M. G. Burch,
attorney of the attorney generals
office, and turned 1t over to the de-
partment Of justice that it might be
saved from destruction and used as
evidence in a proposed investigation
before the senate committee on In
dian affairs. Such an Investigation
was provided at the last session in
resolution by Senator Townsend
of Michigan. Mrs. Gray declared
her action had the approval of At
torney General Wickersham and
that her arrest had been brought
about by her enemies in the attor-
ney generals absence from the city.
Destruction of the Crow records, she
said, involved lands valued at prob
ably s1O0,O00,OO0.
At the department Of justice yes
terday very little was known of the
affair. Most officials there are out
of town. At the interior depart,
ment, however, it was said Mrs
Gray's arrest had been asked by AS
sistant Secretary Adams, upon the
report of the Indian Office that she
had three times declined to return
the Crow records. Acting Commits
sioner Abbott pronounced Mrs
Grays charge that the papers were
about to be destroyed as foolish.

Mrs. Sara Wharton Moore Dies Few

Animal Dashes on Party at Seventh
and Locust Streets-Hurled
to Pavement.

Des Moines, Sept. 2O.-Mrs. Sara
Wharton Moore of West Nineteenth
street was struck by runaway
horse at West Seventh and Locust
streets last night and died at Mercy
hospital fifteen minutes later from
the injuries she sustained Mrs.
Mary A. Rowley of Chicago, sister
of Mrs. Moore, also was struck by
the animal and is now at Mercy hos
pital suffering from serious cuts and
bruises.
The accident occurred shortly af-
ter 8 o'clock as Mrs. Moore, in COM
pany with her husband, w. E..
Moore, and sister, Mrs. Rowley were
walking to the Berchel theater.
They were crossing Seventh street
on the north side of Locust street
when a horse owned by Henry Ro-
besky of 1901 Lincoln avenue came
running north on Seventh street.
The three persons were not aware
OF the approaching animal until it
was too late for the two women to
escape. t...
Mr.. Moore was able to jump to
safety and tried to drag the two
women with him, but both were
hurled to the pavement and trampl-
ed on by the horse Mrs. Moore was
thrown backward and alighted on
the back of her head, causing a
fracture at the base OF the skull.
Pedestrians aided Mr.. Moore in
removing the two injured women
from the street into drug store on
the corner.
The police patrol arrived in a
short time, and no other conveyance
being available the women We're
placed on a stretcher and rushed in
the patrol to Mercy hospital
Surgeons worked hard in an un-
successful endeavor to save Mrs
Moore's life Artificial respiration
and stimulants were used in vain
and in less than ten minutes after
reaching the hospital Mrs. Moore
died.
The injuries sustained by Mrs.
Rowley were not as serious as those
Mrs. Moore suffered Lacerations
about the face and hume rous pain
full bruises about the body were the
extent of the hurts the Chicago
woman received, though she suffer
ed greatly from nervousness brought
on by the shock.
Miss Mary A. Moore, daughter
of the dead woman, was reached at
once and with her father was at the
bedside at the time of death. Mrs.
Rowley was taken to another room
of the hospital and has not been
aprised of her sisters death, the
doctors fearing that because Of the
nervous strain she has suffered. the
news would prove fatal to her. There
is little doubt Of Mrs. Rowley's re-
covery.

This man was inclined to excuse the
New street brokers on the ground that
the firm had been member of the
exchange less than two years, and
perhaps did not know better. If that
were the case the alarms sounded by
the board OF governors when they
heard OF the women's department and
it's nursery annex had evidently taught
the young firm lesson. A visitor
dropped in to see the feminine spec
