ground feeds. Mash, grit, shell, and charcoal were given to the birds ad libitum but it was necessary to close the grain feeder a part of the time es- pecially during the long days of sum mer. This daily attention to the hop pers would probably be unnecessary in larger f1ockS. Succulenr food consist ed principally of dried beet pulp for about six months. After this time suf- ffcient natural greens were furnished by the barley and clover in the yards in which the hens were running so that none was added from other sourc- es until along in the summer when some of the yards became more CT less depleted. For about the last three months of the contest period green cut corn was used. The beet pulp, and other greens for that matter, were fed separately; that is to say they were not incorporated in the dry mash. The formulas for the mash and grain ra tions were not changed in the sec- ond year, it being deemed advisable to continue their use on account of the highly satisfactory egg yield obtained in the first competition. It will be noted from the formulas below that beef scrap appears in both the mash and the grain. It should perhaps be explained that all beef scrap was sifted, the coarse particles being mix ed with the scratch grain and the re- mainder being used for the mash.
 The following were the feeding formulas:
 Dry Mash-Coarse wheat bran 200 pounds, corn meal 100 pounds, gluten feed 100 pounds, ground oats 100 pounds, standard middlings 75 pounds, fish scrap 30 pounds, beef scrap 30 pounds, low grade flour 25 pounds.
 Scratch Grain-Cracked corn 60 pounds, wheat 60 pounds, heavy white oats 40 pounds, barley 20 pounds, Kaff1r corn 10 pounds buckwheat 10 pounds, coarse beef scrap 10 pounds.

BODY OF KATIE MAYER FOUND
Heating In River Of Massapeag- Evidently Met Death by Drowning, Coroner Says Had Been Missing Since Tuesday Evening, October 2s-Doctors Believe Body Had Been in Water at Least 10 Days.

The mystery of the disappearance of Miss Katie Maher of No. 23 Spruce street on Tuesday evening, Oct. 28, was partially solved Saturday afternoon by the finding of her dead body floating in the. Thames river off Massapeag: That she committed suicide by drown ing is the conclusion reached, but just when will probably never be positively known.
 According to Drs. F: J. Harper and J. w. Callahan, who were called into consultation by members of Miss Ma hers family, the body had probably been in the water at least ten days. They were called to give their opinion on this point and stated that the ad- vaneed state of decomposition in to indicate that length of time, since 8 shorter period in water at the pres ent temperature would hardly account for the decomposition that had set in.
 If this were right 1t would make it seem probable that Miss MaheF full filled her threat to get into the river on the night she disappeared as that was II days from the time her body was found.
 Against the supposition that she committed suicide on the night she disappeared is the statement of Mrs. Jennie Dunham Pfxley, who has de- clared positively that she saw Miss Maher at the Mehegan gate on the Saturday afternoon after she was re- ported missing and that she spoke to her and that Katie said she was stay- ing with friends down there. But no one has come forward to state where she was staying, nor has anyone else been found who saw Katie in that re- gion The fact that the body was found at Massapeag and not at a point nearer Norwich might be taken to in dicate that she got into the river in that neighborheod and not here.
 N. B, Rogers and Nelson Pierce two residents of Massapeag. were those who saw the body first Saturday and brought it to shore and secured it, then notifying Coroner Franklin H. Brown and Medical Examiner M E. Fox of the town of Montville about 230 o'clock. Coroner Brown went to Mas sapeag and met Dr, Fox on the way and together they went to the spot where the body was at a point north of the summer residence of former Congressman Edwin w. Higgins. They were accompanied to the place by Dep- uty Sheriff George H. Stanton, who had been told by Chief George Linton that some Central Vermont trainmen had telephoned him from the station here about the finding of the body.
 When found the body was floating face downward and the report was

1 first made that 1t seemed to be that of a. sailor. Miss Maher was wearing a p1ue serge dress when she disappear ed, and this appeared at first like mems clothing. Deputy Sheriff stan 1 ton assisted in taking the body from the water and after it had been viewed by the officials word was sent here to have UndertakerS Shea & Burke bring 1t to their morgue in this city, which they did. Later 1t was taken to the rooms of Undertaken M. Hourigan, members of the family:
 Coroner Brown said Sunday evening tnat all the indications were that death had been self inflicted by drowning and he thought the body had been in the water at least a week. There were no marks or anything te indicate any other cause of death. When found the bedy of Miss Maher was clothed as it was en the night she disappeared: Only her hat was miss ing: It was understood that she had about 75 cents with her on the night she disappeared, but the coroner had not learned Sunday night whether any money had been found on her:
 sunday afternoon Df: H. M. Lee from New London was here at the under taking rooms and an autopsy was to have been performed, but this was considered not advisable and was given up.
 Miss Maher, who was demented and was in charge of nurse, Lindsey Smith, disappeared from sight on the evening of Tuesday. Oct. 28, about s30 o'clock, a few minutes after she had followed her sister Mrs F. E. Don aNson, around Shannen's corner, ac- cording to the statement MT. Smith made to the police when he reported that he could not find her. She was walking about 20 or 80 feet behind her sister at the time, he said, and in the minute or two while he crossed the street to the opposite corner and blanced off in the other direction, both had disappeared from sight. Because of her previous threats to end her life in the river he has been confident from the first that her body would be found there. Other theories have also been advanced, but the river had been dragged and Mir. Smith has made him. self sick by his own work in the case and it Is understood Is now in the hospital. A sister of Miss Maher, Mrs. +. E. Donaldson, has also been unceahsing in the search.
 The unfortunate young woman was about 30 years old and was born in New Jersey. She is survived by her mother, Mrs. James Maher, a brother, James J., and two sisters, Mrs. J. P. Murphy End and Mrs. F .E. Donaldson

In preaching from the gosp1e for the Sun day. Matt xiii, 24-S0, the parable of the wheat and the cockle Father Broder- ick said it was sometimes hard for Christians tof understand why their lives were beset by troubles and fail ures and difficulties, while men and women openly leading evil lives ap- peared to prosper, to accumulate rich es, to win honorS to be made much of
 It is the parable, he said, of the what and the cookie. Gods ways are not mans was; the wicked are often times permitted to flourish, but the time of harvest is not always delayed. The wheat stands for those who follow in Christ's footsteps, who keep the com mandments, whose lives are according to Gods law The evil doers who flourish like the noxious weed in the midst of the good grain are just as certainly preparing for their fate when the Lord of the Harvest shall gather the wheat into the eternal mansions, where the reward shall compensate a thousandfold for any sorrows and trou- bles which this earthly life may hold.
