selection.
Haverhin men and farmers living
north Of Haverhill are said to be pre-
pairing protests against the east and
west road out of Haverhiu. that con-

DEATH NEAR GILMAN.
Mrs. Ole Sawyer Passes Away Ate,
Brief Illness.

Mrs Martha Sawyer. wife of Ole
Sawyer. and one Of the well-known
residents of the Gilman neighborhood
died at her home, two and onehalf
miles east OF Gilman, in the edge of
Tama county. at o'clock Monday
nighmt, following an illness Of week
Heart failure. induced by her -..anced
years, was the cause of Mrs. Sawyer's
death
Mrs. Sawyer was born Martha INLAND
at Aa.ndal. Norway, Jan. 6, 1895. With
her parents she came to America in
1871, settling al Muskego Wis. Not long
after the family reached the Wisconsin
town Mrs INLAND died, leaving five
motherless girls in a strange country.
In the fall of the same year Mr.. INLAND
took his family to the Fox river settle
ment in LaSalla county, Illinois. and
later to what is now the town of
Leland.
At Leland, On April "a, 1854. Miss
INLAND became the wife Of Ole Sawyer,

| A wood fire had been burning most
Of the day in an open fire place. and
| Just as Mrs. Wilson was about to leave
the fire in order for the night she mo-
| ticed smoke leaking up between the
| stones Of the hearth. She pried up a
| stone with screw driver to discover
fire bursting forth from underneath.
r. r. Lay, next door neighbor. and D.
w. Norris, Jr., the owner of the prop
erty who lives across the street were
summoned and an alarm turned in.
When they arrived fire was evident
between the studding OF the wall
around the chimney and from the
basement it could be seen between the
floor joists.
When the fremen entered under the
roof they found the closed attic space
completely filled with smoke, and it
required over an hour of stubborn
lighting to get at the fire to extin-
gush it as it seemed to have worked
/ thru several partitions and ceiling
joists.
The water and smoke damage was
necessarily very great, as the house
had been newly decorated and had
hardwood floors in nearly every room,
which are completely ruined. The roof
which was Of slate on frame construc-
ton, will have to be torn down and
rebuilt, as will most of the ceiling
joists and nearly all of the water
soaked plastering.
Mr.. Norris is unable to estimate his
loss until the builders can carefully
survey the extent of damage. He
thinks, however, that his insurance OF
$4,000 will come somewhere near to 1t.
The local agent reported the policy es
total loss, and Fire Chief Kirby es
Inmates that the damage will certainly
exceed 50 500
Mr.. Wilson was out of the city at
tending a Y. NJ. c. A convention, leav-
ing Mrs Wilson and her two children,
With Lenore Ballard. as com panion. in
the house. Mrs. Wilson and her chill
dren have been given refuge in the
f. r. Lay home while the family's
household goods were very carefully
removed to the shelter of porches in
the neighborhood. The family's plans
will not be determined upon until Mr..
Wilson returns. but it will require sew
eral months in which to rebuild the
house.
No estimate has as yet heen made on
the Wilson loss. as the family's house
hold goods are so scattered about the
neigh borhood. The fire loss. however.
is covered by insurance. The actual
loss by fire or damage by water or
smoke will be comparatively small, but
The loss thru inconvenienc to the
family. which has only recently become
settled in their new home. is hard to
recoken in dollars and cents.

Flanagan, aged 10, son of Mrs Charles
Worsford. four miles south of the city
in Timber Creek township, was badly
injured Monday.
The wire controlling thu gearing had
broken, and young Flanagan was trying
to put the mill out of gear. In doing so
he got his left hand caught in the cog
wheels, with the result that the two
middle metacarpal bones were broken,
and the palm Of the hand cut SO badly
that the fingers lay back across the
hand.
The boy was brought to St Thomas
hospital. where his hand was dressed.
Today he was resting as comfortably
a. could be expected. 1t is believed the
hand will be saved. Drainage tubes
were inserted to care for any possibility
of the wound having become infected.

better color and condition of feather
If they are fed literally and kept in,
the pink of condition at all stages OF
the growth. You who are working
for fine specimens, keep this fact in
mind and do not allow your chicks to
get out of condition for a single day.
Blighted feathers can never be made
to show for what they should, as in
perfectly developed specimens.
Feeding Duoklings.
A correspondent writes that from
purchased Pekin eggs he has not been
able to produce ducklings over three
pounds in weight at three months.
We are of the opinion that the stock
from which our correspondent bought
his eggs was understood and perhaps
inbred. In such a case the young
would be very small and naturally
slow in developing. We would advise
keeping your own breeding stock of
good size and vigor, which, with prop
er care, would give you the quick
growth and size so desirable in the
Young stock The feed for young
ducks should be bread and sweet milk
for the first few days, given every
three hours. After the fifth or sixth
day YOU can commence giving them
soaked biscuit, to which is added meat
meal and oat meal. to take up some
Of the moisture. Milk should be used
IL you have It; If not, hot water viii
answer. Finely chopped green food
should be added and all fed three or
four times a day. After the first week
of this feed a little corn meal mixed
with the oat meal and meat meal. and
the biscuits left out. MIX should be
used all the while, il one has it at
their command. AS the youngsters
grow older more of the corn meal
NAV be added with an increase of the
beef scraps. and sumo barley meal If
II can be obtained. Barley is espe-
cially good to induce good growth.
Do not neglect the green stuff at any
times After the first six weeks have
passed a splendid feed may be made
by boiling fresh butchers scraps until
tender. thickening the broth with corn
and barley meal and bran, equal
parts, sailing about as you would for
table use, being careful, however, to
use too little rather than too much
salt During this latter part of the
feeding period. before being marketed
thew should be fed all they will eat
three times a day. Limited quarters
should be provided. for where they
have too much room they run OFF
about as much flesh as they put on.
After the first ten weeks or three
months have passed it is better to
market them. as the increase and
growth are much more rapid than II
is during the succeeding weeks

A Few Suggestions
For Marking Young
StOck-All Varieties
Also Some Fine Pointers on Feeding
DuckIings.

This is the season of the year when
the breeder of fine poultry is perhaps
80 elated over the prospects of his
growing crop of chickens as TO almost
forget all else. Do not neglect the old
hens that produced this fine crop for
you. This is their most critical time
Of the year, moulting time. Keep
them free from lice and mites, and
provide them with good, cool. shady
places to spend the scorching June
days. If you have made a practice of
marking your young stock as Matched
from your different yards and any
from eggs you have purchased you
will be able to tell which are produc-
ing the best specimens for you. If
you are breeding the White Plymouth
Rocks do not be in a hurry to kill off
the youngsters that show a dark tinge
while young. These often mature to
be the whitest ones Of the lot. In
Barred Rocks pullets usually get
lighter as they mature and the cock
erels also brighten up in clearness of
barring, and II you are a new breeder
of this variety do not get excited over
black feathers scattered through the
plumage. This is a characteristic of
the breed. and while II is objection
able is not an indication of impurity
nor lack of proper care in breeding
II you are a breeder OF CoChins do
not be in a hurry to kill off what you
call the cockerels. They may be pull
let's. It is hard to distinguish until
they are of good size. In Brown Leg
horns give the cockerels a chance to
mature Those you think too dark
may tighten to the finest show speci-
mems. II you must weed them out
some, cut out those with great, heavy,
beefy combs. which hardly know
which way to twist in developing and
those with white in wings and neck.
But in Black Langshans. Minorcas or
Black Cochins wait until their last
moult to condemn for white on tips Of
wings. All buff breeds, as a rule,
moult out all the black they may have
in going from chickenhood to fowls.
All breeds come to maturity in much
