Cedar Rapids. western representative
of w. NJ. Stewart e. Co. wholesale
commission merchants OF dressed
poultry, New York.
According to Mr., Balm, the farmer
who has been blamed with neglecting
modern poultry breeding is the man
who secures this wonderful record for
Iowa. II is the farmer who sells
chickens to the dealers. The dealers
sell them to the commission mer'
chants who ship them to New York
and other big markets.
The breeder of fancy fowls, does his
share of the work indirectly. He pro.
duces the fine stock, and this he sells
TO the farmer for breeding purposes
and for the purpose of improving the
farmers stock The fancier. however,
generally confines himself to produc.
ing breeding stock and does very little
in the way of raising chickens for the
market f@s
Chickens raised in Iowa excel not
only in quantity. but also In size and
quality The commission merchants

age weight, and the Iowa farmer is
there on raising such birds. Many
other states fall behind In this respect.
Also the Iowa farmer excels In raising
large birds which have the yellow
skin and yellow legs that are the test
of fine quality on the big markets In
the east.

BRICK HOUSE BY MAIL
Oskaloosa Brick Co. Sends Part Of
p Structure by Parcels Post.

Manager w. p Hawkins, of the Us
kaloosa Paving Brick company, has
sent by parcel post brick OF local
manufacture to be used in building a
brick house at the coliseum In Chica-
go during the clay products exposi
tion which is to be held February rs
to March 8. This brick will be one of
25,000 sent by parcel post from every
b~ick plant In the United States to be
used in the construction of this house,
which will be given away and re-
erected after the exposition.
A record will be kept OF each brick
from the time it is mailed until IL is
delivered In Chicago in order to see
how speedily Uncle Sam can deliver
a brick house by mail. ..
The idea was originated to test the
merits of the parcel post system and
It Is certainly a novel one. AS 1t will
require $4,000 brick to build this
house. and the average cost OF mail
ing each brick will be 40 cents, il will
be seen that Uncle Sam will get $10,-
900 from this shipment.
It is probable that Uncle Sans mail
lcarriers In Chicago will not be over
Enthusiastic for this method of deliv.
lery of brick house. Other mail car
riers throughout the country will
watch the experiment with interest
and fear and trembling. While the
brick fireproOf nome is becoming more
and more popular because of its per.
lmanency, economy and superiority, it
Is not probable that they will be de.
livered by mail to any alarming ex'
tent.

Big Haul Of Fish.

McGregor, FEB. pa haul of fish
was made Saturday under the ice In
the Mississippi river five miles above
McGregor of such proportions that
even the fishermen are half afraid to
tell the truth about 1t. Just how big
It Is will not be known probably for
week, but there seems no question but
that 1t Is the biggest single haul OF
fish ever made up the upper river.
The first estimate put upon the catch
was 10000 pounds; then yesterday
40 900 pounds at least, the fishermen
say, got away through a sag i'm the net
and now il is believed that the origi-
nal estimate was so much smaller
than 1t should have been that 10000
pounds are still left. For two days
and nights big force of men has been
scooping the fish out of the net by the
thousands, loading them into wagons
land carrying them on Inc Ice to Pral-
rie du Chem, where another big force
of men is working overtime dressing
and loading them into cars. Such
numbers still remain i'm the net that
it will be nearly week before the
last of them are gotten out. Nearly
all of the fish are of the buffalo varie'
,ty, ranging from five to fifty pounds
in weight. Because 1t is Lent, be-
cause meat is high and because fish
are unusually scarce for this time of
the year, all species of the finny tribe
have been bringing top prices and the
fishermen were successful In dispos.
ing of their big haul of buffaloes at
.SlG cents pound.

TO ESTABLISH GAME FARMS
SUCH IS THE PLANS OF THE NEW
WARDEN AFTER APRIL tST.
The Present Force OF One Hundred
and Eight Deputy Wardens to
be Greatly Reduced.

Cedar Rapids, Feb. 25.-One of the
Hinshaw. who will take office on April
l as state fish and game warden. sue
ceeding Geo. A. Lincoln, ol this city,
Is to be located near Sioux City.
Two deputy wardens instead of one
probably will be picked for Sioux City.
Mr.. Hinshaw, who Is looking over the
ground preparatory to picking his as.
sistant, announced his plans for re-
!organizating the fish and game de-
partment of the state.
The state will be divided by Mr.
Hinshaw into four fish and game dis
tricts, it is likely. A superintendent
will be appointed over each district,
whose duty it will be to direct, with
Sioux City as headquarters, will in.
iclude Missouri river territory. A cen
trial district will have Des Moines as
headquarters. Two other districts
will be established on the Mississippi
river boundary of the stale. ..... ..
Reduction in the present force OF
10S deputies Is foreseen by Mr.. Hin.
shaw as a possibility of his scheme.
One game farm probably will be put
in each district. Each farm will be
in charge of one man and his wife,
and will be as extensive as the people
can attend to. Pheasants, quaII and
cartridges will be bred. ..oE
Fish hatcheries will be conducted
In small natural lakes. Only perman.
Ient lakes and streams will be stock.
ed with fish. Hatchery lakes will be
cleared of all species of fish except
the kind being propogated. Efforts
will be made to save millions of fish
that die annually in sloughs and bay.
GUS of the state, Mr.. HInshaw stated.
Mr.. Hinshaw will keep headquarters
at Spirit Lake, Ia, after April /. He
Is now state food inspector.

AUTOMOBILE EDITION
Nearly Three Tons consumed in
Saturday Paper.

Saturdays Automobile Edition of
the Herald was the ninth annual spe-
cial booster effort published by the
Herald. The first special edition, is.
sued early In February, 1905, contain.
ed thirtytwO pages, aud was called
Oskalobsa Illustrated" For several
years the annual was thirty-two
page edition. When the Herald in.
ton grew in size, eight pages being
added from Gme to time until the
Good Roads" edition of 1912, when
the annual had grown to forty.eight
page affair. That number of pages,
however, would rot accommodate the
business of The automobile Edition
OF 1878 and eight more pages were
added, making IN edition of Sc pages,
the largest paper ever printed in Os'
kaloOsa under q single date.
The 1913 Annual represents a
vast amount of extra labor on the part
of the Herald force, every member OF
which has been engaged several
weeks. The Automobile number
would be a creditable piece Of work
done in the ordinary way, but when
one takes into consideration that the
regular work of the Office was not in
,terrupted, that the special edition was
done at hours outside of the daily
routine. the results placed before the
public Saturday appear the more com.
mendable.
The delivery of the big paper was
mo small job. The sixteen regular
carrier boys were helped by sixteen
other boys and by two large. drays.
By following a system developed by
the experience of past years every
paper, so far as known, was deliver
ed on time and in good order The
mail editions were also handled in
good season, and by seven o'clock
Saturday evening every regular sub
scriber's paper of both the Daily and
Weekly Herald was either delivered

Nearly three tons OF paper were
consumed in the big edition, and A..
900 impressions of eight pages to an
impression were taken. If run Oh an
ordinary cylinder newspaper press,
printing four pages at time, and run
ming at the rate oil 100 an hour 1t
would have required "a hours or sew.
en- full working da:s to have done
the press work alone.
In addition to the many extra cop
les sent to friends elsewhere by local
people, there has been big demand
for Nthe papers from outside sources
and the effort will no doubt be as great
an advertisement for the town as 1t
has been for the patrons of the ad,
Ivertising columns.
The pictures of PreSident-elect
Woodrow Wilson and family, which
were delivered to town subscribers
could not be sent by mail. However.
If any of our subscribers on rural
lines would like one OF these pictures
they may have same by calling at the

Congregational Church.

The theme of the morning sermon
was the faith of Joshua. Rev. Cave
took as his text Heb. 1880, "By faith
the walls of Jericho fell down after
they were comprised about seven
days" This incident Is taken by the
author OF Hebrews as illustrative of
the career of Joshua. Joshua unlike
Abraham, Jacob. or Joseph shows his
faith chiefly in his war.like exploits.
He was primarily soldier. His faith
is illustrated prominently In his Wis.
ion of God. To him God appeared as
warrior against bis chosen people.
Joshua considered God the real gener.
al and himself the subordinate. This
Is the source of Joshua's faith and
strength. He always looks upon him.
self as man who is led. Every sue
cess which comes to him, he ascrihes
to God. This Is the great secret of his
life and character 1t gives the inter.
probation OF the man himself. His
faith was shown In his willingness to
undergo prolonged training for his
great work; In the prompttitude with
which he represses himself; and In
