Portable Workstand,

Any one who has used the portable
writing desks which fold like the old
fashioned saw horse clothes tree
will appreciate folding work stand
on the same principle. These come
IN several sizes and designs, with
frames of plain or inlaid mahogany
or satinwood, and the receptacles Of
green or rose silk.
The working part is a deep bag
finished with frill at the ends, the
sides attached to the upper part Of
the frame on each side. Two sides of
the bag are supplied with straps to
hold sewing utensils. pin-cushions,
needle books. gauges. tape-measures
and good knife.
When not in use the frame collapses
and Is fastened with a clasp on top.
The upper part of each frame forms
curved handle so the stand can be
carried from place or stood against
the wall when not open. These
stands are especially popular for
porch use and are convenient to
stand out Of sight in library or liy
ing room.

DUST BATH IS A NECESSITY
Receptacle Should be Placed Where
Sun VIII Strike II az FowIs
Will Use II Often.

By N. e. CHAPMAN. Minnesota.)
In every poultry-house there should
be dust-bath, where the hens may
get rid Of lice. Poultry-lice breathe
through pores in their sides. and
fine dust fills these pores and suffo-
Gates the vermin. Road-dust, hard
coal ashes. or dry dirt of any kind.
will accomplish the purpose. Wood
ashes, II damp. may stain the feathers
and otherwise harm the fowls. A
tight box, three feet by three feet and
one foot deep, is a good receptacle for
the dust. 1t should be placed where
the sun can shine on it, as many
hours as possible; for. when the hens
are not exercising by scratching for
their feed. they will spend q good
deal Of time in the dust-bath, which
induces exercise. The hens will not
use the bath freely unless the air is
warm. for they dislike to open their
feathers and expose their bodies to
air below so degrees. One end of the
box may be put on the window-sill.
and the other supported on legs, with
a canopy Of denim or duck, open on
one side and toward the window. This
will confine the heat, and make the
temperature in the box many degrees
higher than the temperature of the
house. The canopy should slant down
from the upper part OF the window,
Of course. and be closed up on all
sides but one. so that there will be no
draft to carry of the heated air.
Such dust-bath can be easily and
cheaply made and will add much to
the health and happiness of the hen.
The hen that Is comfortable is the
oEe that makes money for her owner.

Arbano is anything but a robber in
appearance. He is only five feet tall.

the police how he walked into a sa-
loon where the five taxicab bandits
were dividing the $25. 900 loot, and by
pure bluff" was given $4,000.
AS he left the saloon he was In turn
held up by two companions and had

With $4,000 he fed to Havana. Cuba.
In Havana he became acquainted with
woman, and after night of drinking
laid he found himself short $4,000.

The police SO far have recovered
only $4,000 OF the original loot, and on
this account heavy bond was required
Of all the men held in the case. The
sum Of $4,000 was required in the
.ase Of Montani, the taxicab chauf-
Ieur, and prohibitive amounts asked for

INDUSTRY AND IMPROVEMENT.

Representative Humphrey of Wash

time year ago deficit of $22,357,-

Plans are being prepared for the
new Kititas High Line canal and res

GENERAL TRADE CONDITIONS
6radstreet's and the Financier Review
Commercial Affairs.

Bradstreet's and the Financier Review
Commercial Affairs.
Bradstreet's review of trade says:
Though trade trends are running in
favorable direction there is enough
irregularity to divest the situation OF
uniformity. Over and beyond all is
the fact that the larger centers of dis
tribution continue to do remarkably
well, this being most potent in cereal
producing regions that were favored
by heavy crops. Comparatively few
places can boast Of good, seasonable
retail trade.
Money is easy, funds are returning
from the interior in volume and west
ern banks are liberal buyers Of COM
mercial paper The stock market ap-
pears to have been heavily oversold,
but most of the activity has been con-
tributed by a few stocks.
Business failures for the week end
ed January 30, were 361, which COM
pares with 312 in the like week of
1912. There were 25 failures in Can
ada.
Wheat, including -four. exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week ended January 80, aggregated
5,37O,916 bushels, against 1857 400
bushels this week last year.
The Financier says: The state
statement of the New York clearing
house banks was distinctively differ
ent from those of the preceding few
weeks, the current exhibit having
shown decrease of $1,000, 900 in cash,
whereas preliminary estimates had in
dicated gain of more than twice that
amount. 1t is difficult to explain the
discrepancy except that money with
drawn for gold exports counted large
ly in the totals.
Money is still flowing in this direc-
ton from the interior although the
banks have been losing to the sub
treasury on account of Withdrawals
for export purposes. A very large
volume of national bank notes has
also been going to Washington for re-
demption.
Loans increased $25,S3S, 900 and
this, with an increase of $500, 900 in
deposits, brought about a decrease of
$5,34O,200 in excess reserve, making
the present surplus above the 25 per
cent minimum $16,125,2OO.
