1t is hard to fatten a stunted
chicken.
Boys and girls should be encouraged
to raise poultry.
Wet feet are just as bad for hens
as they are for folks.
The hen that lays $50 eggs in q
year is doing mighty good laying.
For the city market there is moth
Ing between the broiler and roaster.
Every week there should be fresh
supply of clean, fine earth in the dust
box.
No wonder some mems hens never
weigh anything. The lice have just
about carried them away.
Nobody wants to buy dirty egg,
and the only way to keep the eggs
clean Is to keep the nests clean.
Middlings and cornmeal wet with
skim milk make fine forcing feed
for cuIls that are to be marketed
Spraying q chicken house with Il
to 20 solution Of nme-sulphur will
efKectually destroy all nits and lice.
An unruly or greedy rooster has
no place in a chicken yard; the,
dinner table is the safest roOst for
him.
Well managed poultry Is preferaltles
TO farm corps in that poultry win pro-
duce an income ct all times Of thst
year.
There 10 no such thing as egg Iayl
ing type. There ID but one true test
Of the layer, and that II by the aid
Of the trap nest.

We consider the University of

he said, and we are here to learn
as much as we can about solving the
economic problems confronting us in
our state and cities.
I'VE want to get the University
Of Pennsylvania to help us more than
it does and we want to find out how
it can best do so. We believe that
Wisconsin has hit on the best posi-
bic system Of carrying the university
to the people through it's extension
department. We are planning to
adopt such a system for bringing our
university and other educational in
stitutions to the homes of our citi-
zenS."

61s to pounds. Ducklings should be
marketed from nine to twelve weeks
of age. After that they take on weight
slowly, and it is not profitable to keep
them longer than twelve weeks.
Geese grow about as rapidly as
ducks. Allowance of course must be
made for the original difference in
size--newly Matched goslings weigh
ing about four ounces. Turkeys do
not grow rapidly at the start, but de-
velop much quicker after three months
of age.

RECESS PLANNED IN SENATE
Members of Upper House of Legisla-
ture Plan to Leave Big Prob
lens Until January.

Madison-At a conference of sena-
tors it was decided to introduce a
resolution in the senate next week
providing for a recess of the legisla-
ture from June to the second week
in January
1t is thought that it will take six
weeks or two months to finish the
work now before the legislature if
the present session is continued and
that some of this legislation would be
somewhat crude and defective if at
tempted at the present session.
1t is proposed to refer the big prop
ositions still pending to special COM
mittees which would conduct hearings
during the recess and report and be
prepared to introduce finished and
perfected bills when the legislature
reconvenes. The principal subjects
still to be considered by the legisla-
ture are the water power. forestry,
minimum wage, mothers pensions and
proposed state market commission
bills.
The senators who are drafting this
resolution are Lieut.. Gov. Morris, Otto
Bosshard, Howard Teasedale, M. F..
Perry and Paul o. Husting.
Corn Syrup Bill Advanced.
BY vote of 81 to 81 the assembly
today sent to engrossment the Pfen-
mig bill as amended by the dairy and
food department. prohibiting the sale
in Wisconsin of corn syrup without a
label telling the exact contents.
Mr.. Pfennig moved rejection Of the
substitute offered by the dairy and
food department, but was not sus-
tanned. The amendment was adopted
and the bill was then ordered en-
crossed.
Pairing Privilege Is Broken.
A new and not altogether pleasant
precedent was established in the as
sembly when Assemblyman James Al
lison, with the assistance of a ma
jority of the assembly, broke pair
on the KarO corn syrup bill which he
had made with Assemblyman M. T..
BATHS, now on his way to the Hot
Springs. AS the pair was made, Mr.
BATHS was for the bill and Mr.. Allison
against. When the vote on the bill
and its amendments was reached, Mr.
Allison asked to be excused from the
paid on the childlike plea that he had
been taken unawares. Speaker Hull
said he had no power to excuse the
gentleman AS Mr. Allison insisted
the question was put to a vote of the
house, which excused Mr.. Allison and
he voted against the bill.
Fear Operation of Law.
Assemblyman Don G. Hall said in
the assembly that the tax commission
wished bill 1884 withdrawn because
the members were afraid they would
be criticized The bill had been rec
commended once for passage but was
re-referred with substitute amend
ment
This explanation was brought out
by demand for some reason from the
tax committee why the request was
made for the withdrawal of the bill.
The bill provided for an Inheritance
tax on certain property based on
stocks and bonds in holding compa-
MES of Wisconsin properties. The
bill, if passed, would have reduced
the inheritance tax on such properties
now collected

White House Tragedy and cayety

Between 1871 and 1914 the White
House saw greater mingling of trag.
edy and gayety than it ever did in any
equal interval before or since. Will
liam Henry Harrison, Tyler's imme-
date predecessor, died when only a
month in office, and Tyler served out
the remainder of the term. Mrs. Lett
tia Tyler died few months after her
youngest daughter, Elizabeth, was
married to William Waller of Virginia.
This was on Sept 10, 1912. In Febru-
airy, 1874, a great gun burst while ex-
hibiting it on trip down the Potomac
in the midst of brilliant company,
among whom were Tyler, many mem
bers\ of congress and Of the cabinet.
and other distinguished guests. About
forty persons were killed or injured.
Among the killed were the father of
Miss Gardiner, who soon afterward
became Tyler's second wife, Although
married while her husband was in the
White House, the second Mrs. Tyler
had her wedding at her home in New
York, but she held her reception in the
executive mansion. She became popu-
lar in Washington society and I'M
doubtedly strengthened the social side
of her husbands administration
