HIRED POLICE FIRED I
VOLLEY AT STRIKERS

Passaic, N. J., April 5.-There
was riot here today in which the
hired police of-the mill owners
fired volley point blank at the
men, women and children of the
textile strike.
By some special act of Provi-
dence, none of the strikers were
shot so far as is known. Several
were beaten into Inconsistencies
by the clubs of the police.
The riot was the direct outcome
of Sheriff Robert Conklin's mani
festo of last night, which forbade
the, strikers to congregate in pub
lie, or to listen to public speak
ers.
The sherif's order was based

Part of the will reads as if it
were the last writing Of a man
determined to take his own life.
But there is another side to
this. The neighbors of the
Raudes have seen fit to connect
Mrs. Raude's name with that of
Anthony Paviak, a saloonkeeper.
Paviak came to Chicago today
threatening to sue the persons
who linked his name with that of
Mrs. Raude.
"Both Mr.. and Mrs. Raude
frequently came to my place" he
said, today. ''They talked and
played cards. They seemed to get
along well together"
Mrs. Raude Indignantly denied
the aspersion cast on her name.
ct is just gossips who have
connected my name with that of
Paviak," she said. Paviak is a
neighbor and a family friend. My
husband and I never had any
trouble about him"
Mrs. Raude is only SO, or seven
years younger than her husband
was.
Paviak will be questioned by
the authorities.

will and the suspicious circum-
stances of Raude's death have led
to a widespread investigation.
Detectives from Assistant Chief
of Police Schuettler' S office, from
State Attorney Maclay Hoyne's
office, and from Coroner Hof-
mans Office, all are taking part in
this investigation.
So far, the facts uncovered are
more confusing than enlighten-
ing.
Raude was peculiar man.
Two years ago, he was treated in
the Cook County hospital for an
ulcer of the stomach. The doc
tors told him he never would re-
gain his health.
Raude lost his faith in physi-
clans then. He formed habit of
wandering along the rivers bank,
and gathering herbs, which he
brewed into what he was pleased
to can medicine. He also became
addicted to patent medicines.
He became morose. He treated
his wife as if she weer a mere
child. He did not confde in her.
All this might lead to the belief
that Raude had poisoned himself
with some Of his own concoctions.
But DR.. Burmeister says that
the arsenic found it way into
Raude's stomach by the medium |
of Paris Green.

COST OF FEED
Most Economical OF All Rationa
for the Dairy Cow Is That
Which Is Grown
on the Farm,
(By ]. C. FREY, Kansas.)

The work of our Shorthorn dairy
herd of Is COWS in 1911 was the most
successful in years.
The most economical feed for the
dairy COW Is the feed that is grown on
the farm, and must be in the best con-
dition. This is my method Of feeding:
Forty pounds of corn silage; one-half
in the morning and one-half In the
evening, with all the alfalfa hay they
will clean up, fed in the barn. They
run to corn fodder unhusked, and
Kafflr fodder in the yard. This is not
a properly balanced ration, but is az
near as can be obtained with the
feeds that can be produced on the
farm.
find 1t does not pay to buy the
commercial feeds only in the absence
of alfalfa hay, when It does pay to
supplement silage with a mixture Of
cottonseed and bran to supply the pro
TEN element. Cows fed on the above
ration just can't help filing the milk
pail.
find in feeding silage the cost Of
feed is reduced from 40 to 80 per cent
and the flow of milk is increased and
kept up. This is our second year with
this silage, and it is surely satisfac-
tory dairy feed.

ter to use a decoy than to undertake
to drive them.
In driving hogs 1t is very difficult to
get them to see the open gate as their
eyes are usually turned in another
direction looking to be attacked.
The wild hogs when attacked, hud-
die up in compact bunch, turn their
heads outward and watch every mo-
ton of the enemy.
The domesticated hog has not
entirely lost this wild instinct and
naturally takes to the same plan Of
defense.
The hog has ravenous appetite,
and an ear Of corn is one of the most
tempting morsels that can be used to
overcome the natural instinct of the
hog.
II an ear Of corn is dragged along
the road at the end of cord eight
or ten feet long, and just kept out of
reach of the hog, he will forget every
thing else and pursue the ear Of corn
right through cornfleld or anywhere
else without stopping to notice the
opportunities for forage offered by his
surroundings.
Get a bunch of hogs started in pur-
suit OF an ear Of corn and they forget
everything else and can be led any
where by their owner.

st. Louis, Mo.-Alexander Hunter,
who still had sixteen months of a
workhouse sentence to serve, is pur-
suing a plan Of behavior which will
win for him probably an early parole.
When the city authorities decided
to turn Chesley island into a farm
where inebriates could be kept, It's
superintendent, Calvin ]. White, de-
cided to send Hunter to the farm as
a trusty to supervise the work.
Hunter cheerfully accepted the task
and began to build fence. The posts
having been put down, he found him
self in need of a wire stretcher.
Taking a boat, he rowed alone and
unmatched down the river to Kimms-
wick, but could not find what he
wanted there. He then took a train,
came to st. Louis, bought the wire
stretcher and returned.
How in the world did you get
here?" Superintendent White asked
when he stepped off the car and went
to the workhouse. Came up on the
train" Hunter answered.
What do you want?" White asked

Potato Plant Affected with Rosettes
since change TO rotation may mean a
serious decrease in the return from
the crop on the special type of soil.
While for general field culture avoid
ance of conditions may be successful.
this Is by no means a simple matter.
Rotation Is often absolutely necessary,
but this same rotation will not rid the
soil of the onion smut fungus, nor Of
some other parasites such as in the
case of the club-root fungus OF cab
bage and related plants. In these
cases some soil treatment must be APP
piled to field areas. In the case Of the
onion smut It is sufficient to apply a
formalin drip which will fall with the
seed and disinfect the soil layer in
proximity to the seed. This is effec-
tive because the smut fungus can PEN
