Higgins Ketires ss Congressman


 Representative F.. W. Higgins has announced that he would retire from Congress at the end Of his present term. The announcement was uneX- pected. Personal considerations are mentioned as the reasons for his retire ment. IL is expected Mir. Higgins will return to his law practice. Friends say he is vindicated by the report Of the elections committee in his favor on the Jodoin contest, which report the House win approve. MT. Higgins statement announcing his retirement is as follows.
 IT believe it is due to my party and my friends that they should know that will not be candidate for The next Congress. The many kindly and unsolicited assurances Of support from all sections Of the newly created sec ond Congressional District do mol over come the necessity for me to devote more time to ny private affairs. This conclusion, long determined upon, is influenced solely by personal consider aH0ns, 1 wiIl at this time attempt no expression of uy deep appreciation oi the Kindly feeling s3 often manifested by he loyal constituency that in four congresses ] have tried To faithfully serve nor Of my regret at the seVering ol relations that haze always been so uniformly agreeable nor of my esti- mate of the confidence so ungradging- l4 bestowed and the many eoaftesies 90 cheerfully accorded me by those of all political faiths during what al the conclusion of my term will be eight years of congressional service.
 Were there no other considerations more serious than political ones it would have been source Of especial pride for me to have included in my constituency MtddleseX county which now makes up part Of the new con gressional district. This is the coun ty of my fathers, mothers and my birth. From this county my maternal grand father went as a delegate to the first re- publican national convention and as- sociated with localities and county are some of the sweetest memories Of my childhood.
 My faith in and allegiance to the party have always been identified with k firm and unbroken, my conf dence in it's unquestioned supremacy in the newly created district admits Of no argument and my willingness to aid in every honorable way to carry out it's principles and policies will not be abated nor my friendly cooperation and interest be withheld,

New Use for Capons

Householdefs know-or at least l ought 10 know-that "eaponsn are | worth several cents more per pound | than any other.class of partially ma tured domestic fowl. Connoisseurs | bank on the flavor and delicaey of this | meat, while the profit to the grower, due to the almost abnormal size to | which they grow, as we'll as to the eX. | cellenee of their meat, which com mands a higher price, is greatly en- hanced. A "Gountry Gentleman N fiter tells of his experience in trying to produce them, and the dIscoufaging start he had owing to losses after the operation. There is lot of informa- tion in his closing paragraphs which follows:
 The large number of "siipsn that would develop was diseouraging. At first was under the impression that il was the faull of the tools. Two years ago my attention was called to new invention for the purpose and l secured set of too | at once. l had sufficient confidence in them to ope rate on about hundred and fifty birds from which less than fifteen slips de- veloped. The capons were sold during February and March for little more than three dollars each, of three hun dred dollars for one hundred. The to- tai cost of producing them was eighty dollars, leaving net profit of two hundred and twenty dollars.
 These capons were of the Barred Rock breed and weighed about eleven pounds each at selling time. We have found that Barred Rocks are best for caponizing for several reasons: The bullets, if from well-bred stock, will in our opinion lay more eggs during the year than any other fowl; and the l cApons make fine large birds with yell | low legs, small heads and the rich yell | low skin that the market demands Moreover, the young males can be dis tinguished early, for they are much 1 lighter in color than the bullets. In order to make real capons the opera ton must be performed when the chickens are small, usually when they
 weigh about pound and half.
 The new tools that l now use have
 safety attachment and work automati
 cally and it Is nearly impossible t' make a slip. It is now six years sine' we commenced making eaponS ane

The law should foster and

but this law fails to aid in any

ant industries of our state.
On the other hand it has
caused many local merchants
to abandon the seed business.
This builds up the mail order
trade in the purchase of seeds
which is not desirable from
any point of view. In our
town there are no seeds han
