POULTRY SUGGESTIONS
FOR APRIL.

BY Mrs. G. w. Randlett of N. D. A.
c.: If you intend to use hens for
Matching set them in dry place
where the ventilation is good.
If you do not intend to use hens for
Matching break them up at once and
get them to laying again.
A good way to break up a broody
hen is to put her in light airy coop
with a. wire or slat bottom that you
can hang up. This permits q free cir
culation of air and as 1t blows UP
through the fluff it reduces the fever
-'hich is in their blood at this time.
This is the month to get out your
',Jinter layers.
If you have windows in the hen
house keep them clean as the hens
need all the sunlight they can get
these days.
Hens suffer from a damp hen house,
so ID is we'll to keep the floor covered
with litter.
Be sure to'keep plenty of fresh wat
er before the hens. A great amount
of water is used to form the egg.
Put your thinking cap on and don't
let other work crowd out the chicks.
Let the poultry have share of the
sour milk.
If you have not had the nerve to
use the open front house during the
winter you had better begin now by
removing the windows on the south
and use muslin.
Eggs from hens that have made a
fair showing in laying this winter will
be more fertile than those that did
heavy laying.
Keep a flock of hens, a good cow or
two, prepare for a good garden this
year. and you won't have to complain
of the high cost of living.
There never will be too many good
poultrymen but we can strive to be
among the best.

New York, April 1.-The indict-
ment Of four police inspectors of
New York for graft after an in
Yestigation by Dist. Atty. Charles
s. Whitman has frightened the
gamblers and criminals among
the police worse than any action
ever taken against them In this
city. In all the graft investiga-
tions of the past no district attor-
ney has succeeded In forcing in
dictments against officers as high
as inspectors.
An inspector in New York is the
highest uniformed officer. There
are only nineteen in the whole po-
lice force OF more than 10, 300 men.
He draws q salary OF $500 a
year. It Is the position to which
every man who pounds the pave
ment". aspires, Some Of the in
spectors have command of terri
tories as large as many cities, and
are really as important as chiefs
of police in many cities.
District Attorney Whitman In
sists that the graft money obtain
ed by these men, according to the
charges against them, went to. two
or three men powerful in politics,
His constant aim has been to get
evidence against the men. He
says he is now morally certain of
their guilt.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

The sentiment in the State mas
grown powerfully in favor OF a com
nulsorv education law. Nearly every
state in the Union a such a law n
in the last few years compulsory edu-
cation has prevailed in Buncombe
and Macon counties and in the city OF
Raleigh, and in some other western
counties.
Yesterday Representative Ray, OF
Macon. introduced a Statewide com
pulsory education law requiring all
children between the ages of eight
and fourteen to attend school. His
bill as applied to the whole State is
almost identical with the bill he intro
duced in the session Of 1908, giving
Macon county compulsory education.
He says that this law has Worked ad-
mirably in Macon, and Immediately
upon it's passage increased attendance
on public schools and that it has
grown in popularity and usefulness.
It has the merit, therefore, Of having
been tried in one Of the best counties
in the west, and is therefore not an
experiment.

cents per horse power on all motor
driven vehicles. This tax is to be i'm
lieu Of all other taxes on automobiles.
and is to be collected by the secre-
tary Of state in the same manner as
the present $1.00 license fee is col
lected.
Mr.. Grifin's bill provides that this
tax as collected shall be deposited in
the State treasury to the credit of the
North Carolina Geological and Eco
nomic Survey to further it's work OF
rendering road engineering assist
ance to the counties in the construc-
ton and maintenance Of their public
roads. The fund is to be drawn upon
rs directed by the Geological Board.
Counties desiring engineering as

ed for the purpose, and those cOun-
ties accepting such aid shall agree to

WASTING TIME.

There is unanimous demand for a
constitutional amendment that will
end the spectacle of scores Of bills
being introduced to appoint magis-
trates, increase the pay of jurors and
like local measures which ought never
to come into the State Legislature.
The Sta~tesville Landmark, comment
ing upon this, says:
IF the appointment of magistrates
is necessary, and we have an idea
that many of the appointments are
unnecessary, some arrangement should
be made for the appointment by local
authority. Also local authorities
might regulate the pay Of jurors with
in certain limits. The Legislature
should be relieved of so much local
legislation"
The Legislature ought not to APP
point anv Justice Of the Peace at all.
These officers are elected in the va
rious townships and sometimes men
named by legislators are men who
would not be elected at home. It ought
to stop.

coca cola AAs!r, a GHOST.

We have all heard OF ghosts, but none
of US have ever seen one. It's the same
way with coca cola "fends;" you can
he&r about them but you might search
for them until doom's day and you
would never find one. Physicians who
have treated hundreds OF thousands of
drug-habit cases, including opium, NOR
phine, cocaine. alcohol, etc, say that
they have never seen case where the
use of Coca-Cola has SO fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute a
habit in the true sense of the word. AL
though millions of glasses of Coca-Cola
are drunk every year, no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves Wis
ible at the doors Of the sanitariums for
the treatment of drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit is analogous to
the beefsteak habit and to the straw
berry habit and the ice cream habit.
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see 1t advertised and thereafter
because it tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink it
when they can get it and contentedly
do without it when they can't get it.
II you had ever witnessed the rawlings
of real drug fiend when deprived of
his drug, IL you had ever observed the
agony he suffers, you would never
again be so unfair as to mention Coca
Cola In the same breath with the
"hablt-forming" drugs.--Adv.
