IMPROVEMENT OF
CHICKEN FLOCK
Strong, Rugged Health and Early
Maturity Two Great Points
to Consider.

(By PROF. JOHN WILLARD BOI1TE)
An old saying with breeders OF live
stock is that the best cross is with
the feed bin. we say that this is the
only cross that should ever be made
with chickens.
History fails to show single in
stance where any man gained in his
breeding operations through crossing
two distinct breeds. 1t Is perfectly
true that the resulting offspring are
frequently sturdier and grow faster
than either of their parent breeds.
They may even lay more eggs, but
they are almost certain to fail totally
In passing on desirable characteristics,
and the third generation will be far
inferior to the original breeds used
in the cross. Crossing breaks up all
the lines OF heredity and is of value
only in producing new breeds. and
very rarely then.
Don't try to get better chickens by
crossing two established breeds. be-
cause you will surely fail. and don't
waste your time trying to grade up a
scrub flock by using pure-bred males
because life is to short Start with
pure breds and bring up the health
and productivity of your flock by
wedding out the non-producers and
selecting the young breeders with
great care. Pick out next years breed
#ers while they are small and watch
them carefully as they develop.
Strong, rugged health and early ma
turfty are the two great points to con-.
slider for the pouitryman who wants
flesh and eggs above feathers.
Separate the pullets from the cock
erels as soon as you place the young
sters in the colony roosting coops.
Both sexes win develop better from
then on If separated as far as posi-
Bile. Have birds of the same size to-.
cether to avoid crowding and stunt
ing the smaller ones.
Remember that the pullet which
shows red comb first win usually
lay first, and the one that lays hrst

eggs. Watch for these precocious lit

them in the best pen the following

Newspaper Reporters Ought to Give
Brand and Maker Of Whisky Re
sponsibIe for Brutal Crimes.

In New York city recently q man
murdered his twelve-year-old daugh-
fer and wounded his wife. We quote
from his confession as printed In the
Evening Mails account of the
tragedy:
Il came home about midnight. |
had had several drinks before com
ing home. sat down by the side OF
my wife's bed 80. Then my
wife woke up. She ran into
the hall. AS she did so. fired one
shot at her. She fell in heap in the
hall / thought had killed her.
Turning back into the bedroom, !
saw movement underneath the bed
clothes. BY this time l was in ter
rtble temper and l fired three shots
into the bedclothes without looking
to make sure who was there. -
We wish we could bring about a
state where no newspaper or report
er, in case like this, would consider
his story complete until he had found
out the brand of whisky that the
murderer drank and got the name
1hO PhONO6tGpA VI Tic udhcI VI IL.
There are a good many sad things
about our civilization, but few more
discouraging than the fact that men
who make whisky and use all the arts
of trade to stimulate its consumption
are able, by virtue of their money, to
escape the odium which attaches to
all others, like gamblers and panders,
who stimulate crime and profit by ex-
plotting human weakness.-Co llier's
Weekly.
We agree with Golfers that ths
reporter should In such cases tell
the brand of whisky which caused the
crime, and give the name and photo
graph of its maker. But the story is
not complete even then. Let 1t be
told who it Is that makes possible
the liquor manufacturer and the
liquor seller; who 1t is that says to
the whisky maker, go ahead-you
may produce any brand you choose
provided you pay we'll for the priv
ilege." Let every voting citizen put
to himself the question, "Who Is re-
sponsible for crimes committed by
drink-crazed men?" Happy is he VIII

CITY COURT CASES

Pleading guilty to a charge Of as- sault perpetrated last week in the home of Harold Bill, Percy Chatheld, the young colored man who protested to the police that he merely visited the house to plead his love for do- uestic with whom he had been in fatuated, was this morning sentenced 70 pay a fine of $1OO and costs ana serve six months in the county 1a1l- A bottle of chIOrOform found in the room after the prisoners discovery and escape from the house coupled with the statements of the family that an attempt had probably been made to burgIarize resulted in the conV1c- ton. No evidence other than state ment of the prosecuting attorney was made in court today. An appeal was taken by ChatfeId who is held in ST. 900 bonds.
 Preferring to forfeit $1O bonds than to stand trial for having violated an ordinance which requires all peddlers to secure a $5 license, Sidney Horsk- worth. 361 Crawford avenue Brook- Iyn N Y, failed to make an appear ance in court this morning when his name was called. He was hawking his ware on ain street when arrested Saturday
 For the crime of brutally assa ulting his wife at 33 Henry street Judge Frank L. Wilder this morning imposed Fl thirty day sentence in jail upon George Belalxinge, and added S1 ana costs for good measure. The prisoner will appeal. Simple assaults upon men resulted in a fine of $5 to Charles Snow and $15 to Steve Mahoney.
 Indecent conduct brought Leon Pearson to the bar where SIX months jail sentence was commuted +o probation for period of one year. Pearson whose conduct was proven to be exemplary when not under the m duence of liquor was adjured by the court to follow the straight and mar row path.
 Raymond Baske1l, William Steves and Joseph Faster who with Charles Marko who forfeited bail of S1o for his appearance today, had been ar rested while playing upon the cars which were leaving the circus grounds yesterday, had their cases nolled this morning. The natural inquisitiveness of Young American to witness circus departure led the young men to vio- late the laws in trespassing upon rail- road property.

 U. s. COURT AT NEW HAVEN

New Haven, April 14.-Judge Holt in the United States court here, today, gave a further hearing to the Sollo- way & Katz bankruptcy case.
 Arguments were made on motion by counsel for the concern for a re- view of the courts order to have the question of the compromise of certain claims referred back to the master in bankruptcy. These claims were pre- sented by the Bay State Millinery Company and the Star & Crescent Company All other creditors have accepted the compromise offered by the failed concern which amounts to about per cent.
 The court also heard counsel on a motion to have the affairs of the Gill bert Transportation Company of Mys- tic of which Former State Senator Frank S. Butterworth is receiver, talk en from the state court and trans ferred to the United States court. The receiver is seeking. to compel pay nents by stockholders of assessm ents on their holdings.
