While recognizing the extent and i'm
portance of the poultry industry and the
varied interests dependent upon it, the
average man is usually more concerned
in knowing what there is in it for him
individually, and he may fairly ask this
question: What financial returns may
the competent poultryman hope to re-
ceive from these various lines when
operating under fair conditions?'
AS a rule the profits secured by sue
cessful BREEDERS are in excess of those
made by commercial poultrymen operat-
ing on a similar scale. But the chances
Of loss are greater too, due to the heav-
Ter overhead charges which the breed
ers must meet. A one-man plant in
New England, carrying from 800 to 1000
layers, has for series of years made
an annual profit of from $500 to $4,000.
This is above the cost of feed, hired
La DOR, repairs, taxes, insurance and
other fixed charges Producers of soft
roasters, the so-called winter chickens
are in some instances cleaning up from
81 600 to $500 a season.
The figures above are NOT quoted as
averages. In fact, they more nearly re-
present the maximum amounts which the
various lines may be made to yield. But
as such they are worth considering.
The business is yielding comfortable
hvings to unnum5ered families, and the
competent man or woman who VIII at
tend strictly to the work may expect to
secure from it an independent living, and
most seasons have a little surplus TO
lay by or to use to further develop the
business, as seems best.

EXPRESS COMPANIES
WILL CUT NO RATES

The express companies will not meet
the Government competition that comes
with the establishment of the parcels
post on January l.
Contending that the law, admittedly
imperfect, will fall OF its own weight,
the managers of all the big express COM
panies have agreed to sit tight and make
no concessions to the public. Instead,
they will point out and emphasize the
defects in the law and will seek to get
amusement from the efforts of the people
to make the new Government plan
benefit in reducing the cost of living.
The heads of the big express compan-
les have agreed to do no talking them
selves for publication and to compel all
subordinates to refrain from discussing
the situation that will confront them
next month.
THINK EXPENSES WILL KILL 1T.
Privately, however, several of the best
known of the express officials today de-
clared that they were certain that the
law will work out unsatisfaclor1ly Be-
cause 1t is certain, they said, to create
a deficit in the Postofice Department
they do not believe the next Postmaster
General will be any too enthusia for
the scheme And the public, the ex-
press officials say, will not stand for
even slight inconvenience, SO that it
can be depended on to drift back to the
old way to the express companies.
Points that will work out against tho
law, in the opinion of the express heads,
are:
First, the charge made by the uvvern.
ment of 10 cents for insurance on values
up to $50; second increased cost because
the Government can work it's employees
only eight hours a day; third, civil ser
vice protection, which, the express heads
hold, prevents the free discharge of en-
ployes who do not exert themselves to
the limit; fourth, necessity of increas-
ing the pay rolls to get enough men to
handle the increased business; fifth, diff
Aculty of preparing packages for easy
and prompt inspection; sixth, compelling
patrons to wait in line 10 get packages
weighed and the new form of stamps;
seventh, alleged nuwieldiness of the law
because of the creation of the various
postal zones with different rates foi
each.
EGG RULES CAUSE A LAUGH.
Different provisions of the parcels post
law have been the source of amusement
to express managers. Chief of these is
the provision for the snIpmen; o; eggs.
The law states that eacn egg must be
wrapped securely in corrugated paper,
wood or some other substantial material
and placed on end in box and that each
egg shall be separated from its fellows
TO lessen the danger of breakage.
Every package must be so wrapped
that its contents will be accessible to
officers who wish for any reason to in
spect 1t.

Great interest Is being manifested
here in the engagement Of Prof. Gall

Monday and Tuesday, March "a and

been the wonder and sensation of the
day wherever he has appeared. and
the most stubborn skeptic and most
prejudiced opponents have been glad
to acknowledge that he Is all and even
more than he claims to be. He has
been public demonstrator for twelve
years now, and in this time has
amused, instructed and mystified hun
dreds of thousands of people.
Monday noon Galyani viii place a
man in a hypnotic sleep IN
the window of the Peoples
store on West Pike street and in the
afternoon he will make his famous

= Dick Rudolph, the pitcher picked
up by Manager Stallings of the Bos-

Monday he pitched five innings
against the Giants and held them
scoreless. Yesterday he worked seven
innings of the second game of dou-
header and repeated the whitewash
dose, his mates pulling out a victory
Boston won both games. Tyler out
pitched Mathews0n in the first. Bos-
ton scored the winning run when a
throw to catch a runner at the plate
hit bat which had been left in the
base line and bounded over Chief
Meyers head. Tesreau held the
Braves to six hits in the second game,
but bobble by Fletcher opened the
way to three Boston runs.
The Athletics beat Washington
easily in both ends of a double
header, due to the air-tight pitching
of Plank and Bender. In the first
game Plank gave but two hits, and
in the second Bender held the Ma
tionals to seven bingles and whiffed
ten. Oldring got three singles, a
double and triple in the two battles
and swiped three bases. Engle, Gal
liza and Hughes were easy for the
Maeks. Nick Altrock pitched the last
three innings of the second game and
blanked the Athletics with one hit.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
