Association with half a dozen setting hens is the best treatment and it is usually effective According to reports so far every in cubatcr in the town has turned out a full quota of chicks barring very small percentage of loss. A fair aver age taken from the statements of en- thusiasts would indicate that there are about IF million chicks in the brood market and bring down the price of poultry at Thanksgiving time. This will be a blessing and a lesson in the proper methods by which to break the power of the middlemen who are to blame for the high cost of living.
 A noticeable increase in the mum Der of sonlg birds is reported from all parts of the town. This fact gives general satisfaction. Some gardeners, however, question the wisdom of pro- tecting the black birds which do con siderable damage by pulling up corn and peas. The increase in the num- Der of enemies to growing crops is however greater than that of the birds.

 Taft was informed that Dexter City is a hotbed of Roosevelt sentiment and he immediately demanded that that the train make a special stop.
 s.You are utterly illogical in oppos- ing me on account of reciprocity" l" Taft continued. When the fact is that before I entered into reciprocity at all wrote to Theodore Roosevelt and consulted with him about it and he commended me most highly and approved reciprocity in every way. Now that he finds that reciprocity is not popular with the farmers. he re- cants and says that-weI, he has changed his mind about it. He did not understand it fully, he says, all though I explained it fully to him."
