SOMETHING ABOUT THE hen
Government Figures Tending to
Show What Fowl Are Doing
In This State.

The advance reports of the census OF
1910 show that the Nevada hen has fig-
ured prominently in the country's egg
production, although with the excep-
tion of the District of Columbia, the re-
turns are the smallest of any reported
by the census department. The Nevada
farms included IN the report numbered
2,023, on which we're raised 190, Bib
fowls, valued at $115,510. In egg pro-
duction Nevada reports 1908 farms,
the hens on which laid 870, 489 dozen
eggs, valued at $263,s13
Geographically, the west North Gen.
trail states lead in egg production, and
the east North Central states a close
second. The first named division are
Ohio, Indiana. Illinois, Michigan and
Wisconsin,; the second includes the
states of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebras-
ka and Kansas. Each Of these divisions
report more than a million farms, the
east North Central states producing
392, 304, 11S dozen eggs valued at Vs.
237, 900, and the west North Central
group 446, 1886, 1872 dozens valued at $77,-
493, 1927. Not SO many farms reported
in the west North Central division, Al
though the latter group leads In the
number of fowls raised and In the egg
production.
The grand totals from all the states
run into high figures, that show the
hen to be very busy and important
bird, in the affairs of the nation. The
totals are: Farms reporting, 5,655, 754;
number of fowls raised, 4ss. 408, 354;
valuation, s202, 5O6, ,272. Egg produce

Bank & Trust Company, has obtained
a Judgment against the l.. M. Sullivan

r
SION, SAID THE VISITOR.
schneider of the University of Bonn.
Wilmington was often seen by various
persons entering and leaving the pro
fessors laboratory On the 10th of
November. 1858, he was seen to make
such entrance. He was not seen to
depart at the usual time; nor was he
eyer seen again-at least in Bonn.
Samuel Wilmington, cousin In
America, being informed that Ralph
had disappeared, went to Germany to
investigate the matter, but received no
satisfaction Professor Hickelschneider
was 50 universally respected that no
charge of his having made way with
his pupil would be received by the
authorities. Samuel Wilmington re-
turned to America and laid claim to
Ralph's estate, but since nothing could
be transferred to him without proof
of the owners death the courts re-
tained charge of II. The Newport
manor house remained vacant for
many years. when it was purchased by
a family of the name of Pushcarth.
They used a crest on certain of their
belongings. but the only crest to which
they were entitled was a cart, with
a handle to be grasped by human
being, for the founder of the family had
in 1742 been a peddler in New York
city and was called first the pushcart
man, then Old Pushcart and when his
family came into possession of large
fortune which he had accumulated the
name became Pushcart, and later after
the Family had become respectable, 1t
was changed to Pushcarth. genius
for accumulation had been the family
talent, and they were now very rich.
They We're also very arlstocratic and
preferred the Wilmington manor house
with Its old furniture. because they
said 1t reminded them of the original
pushcarth chateau In France from
which the original Pushcarth had been
sent out to Canada by King Louis. XIV.
Professor Hckelschneider died in an
insane asylum. He had made some
wonderful scientific discoveries and
was said to lave been half century
ahead of his time. having arrived at
world. but which have recently been
brought out by a famous institution
for original research. His son, Gustav
inherited his scientific tastes and his
laboratop% II was noticed that after
the father death the son would not
permit any other person than himself
to enter the laboratory.
Gustav was succeeded by his son
Heinrich. who did not inherit the
genius OF his grandfather or even the
tastes of his father He tore down the
laboratory to make room for build
ing that would afford him an income.
Fifty years after the disappearance
of Ralph Wilmington 1t was reported
in Bonn that Heinrich Hickelschneider
had uncovered vault in the laboratory
from which he had taken an oblong
box. such as is used for inclosing bug
ial caskets. that the box contained a
shriveled leatherlike body that a pa
per was found stating that the contents
of the box was a desiccated body.
