Hon, r. NJ. White,
Editor, Ledger, Mexico, Mo.
Dear Col. Understanding yours

wise that the attorney General holds
that the filing of the referendum pc
titions in this department has suspen
ed the County Unit Local Option Law
and has prevented the law from going
into effect. The law, therefore. on
this subject prior to passage Of the
County Unit Law is the law now in
effect. Yours truly,

Deputy Sheriff James NJ. Carlos, of
Terre Haute. Ind, arrived Thursday
night to take the Rev. Roy Hudson
back with him under charge OF wife
desertlon. Hudson claims to have
been married but twice and to be In
nocent Of this accusation. Mr..
Carlos says he is Of the opinion Hud-'
son has been married three times.
Hudson says his first wife was Mis-
Elsie Carlos. OF New Florence, Mo-,
whom, Hudson says, received a d.
yorce from him on the charge of non
support. Hudson was also a preacher
among the miners in Indiana and
treasurer of a local union organiza'

He was arrested charged with ap'
propriating funds Of Union but says
the prosecutor dismissed the charge
for lack Of evidence.

dition. There is nothing like plenty
room and ventilation. All brood coops
should be provided with good wire
fronts to provide the ventilation, and
at the same time to prevent intrusion
from night providers. Il is advisable
at all times to avoid crowding. and
there Is only one way to do that, and
that is by not allowing a great num-
Der to roost in one coop or mouse, 40
matter how large IL may be, for when
the nights become cool, they VIII hud-
die into small space, and those which
happen to be about in the middle
must suffer Chicks of about the
same size and vigor should only be
allowed in the flock. Any Weaklings
should be culled out and placed with
a younger lot This will not only be
an advantage to the weakly ones, but
viii make a more uniform looking
lot out OF each. Separating the sexes
is a profitable proposition, and In the
case Of the smaller or laying breeds
or mixed and common chicks Of that
type the separating should take pla e
at weaving time. This will give both
the cockerels and the pullets a much
better chance for making good
growth, and their management can
be so much better adapted to the pur-
can be separated and given unlimited
range. 80 much the better. Where
chicks can be allowed the run Of
growing corn, It makes an ideal run
conducive to growth. Where it be-
comes necessary, on account of the
garden. the nearness to neighbors OF
similar reasons, TO yard the young
ones, the fence may be made tight by
a 12-inch board or a strip Of 1-inch
mesh wire. and the balance Of regu-
lation poultry wire. Where chicks
have only limited space, il is a good
thing to spade up at least part of the
yard quite often with grain scattered
about in IT, Protection from the eX-
treme heat in summer should be pro-
yided IL there is not already shade
trees in the yards. Old canvas Of
awnings of some kind can easily be
arranged and are fully appreciated
BY the youngsters. Another very
profitable thing where heavy. sudden
showers are common are little shell
tiers easily reached by the little ones
They will save many a chick from an
untimely death. These little emer-
gency shelters need not be any more
than two or three wide boards slanted
against the fence or supported in any
other similar manner to run the
water off No chicken coop or house
should be a hCtbox in the day time
or at night. Screen the front, also
windows and doors, to allow good cir
culation. OF course, good, wholesome
food is necessary to provide rapid
growth. Avoid all sour mixtures of a
sloppy nature, except sour milk ~
curd which is good and wholesome
Dry grains and feed of that nature
are advisable. Keep them filled up.
Rapid growth requires full and com
plete feeding.

It, When these changed conditions
take place then it is that they must
depend almost wholly upon their own
resources. Then they must depend
upon the warmth Of their feathers

hearty and healthy. viii push forward
in rapid growth to maturity. Strong.
healthy parentage makes itself felt. as
do also an the conditions Of food
feeding, care and management. The
age at which chicks should be weaned
or removed from the brooder depends
upon the variety Of considerations
the condition of the chicks them
selves as to advancement. the climatic
conditions OF the season. The little
fellows should be fairly well feath-
cred and able to Withstand, to a rea-
sonable degree, the sudden changes
that frequently come in almost any
section Of the country. Much depends
upon the breed. the season and care
with which they are to be handled.
The smaller laying breeds feather
out very quickly. and should be pref
ty well feathered and ready to coli
onize by the time they are eight
weeks old, and will stand quite cool
weather if they are only kept dry. The
American breeds and common mix
lures about that size and type viii
require about ten weeks for the same
process. While they are heavy. Asiat-
ic breeds are very slow maturing and
require from three to four months to
get anything like a good covering
The weather conditions are very
strong factors in the rearing Of chicks
after they are weaned. Dryness Is
very essential both In the houses and
the yards. While dampness and chilly
winds are very likely to cause trouble,
on the other hand hot sultry weather
often has a bad effect when they can

THE GREAT DELIVERANCE
AND ITS MEMORIAL
The international Sunday School Les
son for August 10, is, "The Pass.
over" Ex. 12:1-42.
(By William T. Ellis.)

Every year this world witnesses q
strange sight. In the ghettoes OF
Warsaw and London and New York,
in the mud houses of Bagdad and
Mosul, and in the remote Arabian
province Of the Yeamen, there is
held a mysterious celebration. But
it Is not confined to the dwellings OF
the poor. In the palaces OF the
worlds richest bankers, in the lux
urious homes Of great ~jurists and
scholars, exactly the same kind of, OBJ
gervance may be seen.
This Is the world-girdling feast OF
the Passover, which for more than
three thousand years has been main
tanned after the same fashion. We
marvel at the pyramids of stone with
their long life, but they are only
Btone-lfeless things which the dry
air of Egypt preserves. Here in the
Passover is a living custom, which
