Colebrooks n. B., Sept. 12.-Harry
K. Thaw has shifted his show" to
this quiet little village following his
unexpected deportation by the Cana
dian immigration authorities on
Wednesday. Thaw made an aimless
flight in an automobile when he left
Norton Mills, VT, and was rearrested
in this town by Sheriff Drew of Coos
county.
Sheriff Drew received a telegram
from Attorney General Carmody Of
New York, asking that Thaw be held
until the arrival OF officers with ex-
tradition papers.
Thaw has already outlined plans for
another prolonged legal battle to
authorities. His first move after his
arrest was to engage counsel and to
take steps for obtaining writ of
habeas corpus. The writ will be ap-
piled before Judge Robert NJ Cham

Gov. Samuel D. Felker was at New

of the bird lover exhorting the hunter
to forsake his weapon.
The sharp crack of a gun, followed
by the sudden fall OF "Ornis, the bird
spirit" Miss Wilson's role, marked
the climax of the piece. Wounded and
sobbing, "Ornfs" is consoled by the
fauns, poet, dryad and naturalist, who
dissaude the repentant plume hunter
and make OF him bird lover. The
presidents daughter spoke her lines
with careful expression and was en-
thrsiastically applauded

picturesque. Those In the audience.

Corn Mus, Bring n Cents.

man estimates that the corr
crop for this year VIII be Is
bushels an acre. The yield last year
was 80 bushels to the acre., so that
the drought has cut the corn crop
almost half in two. This estimate Is
made up from the reports received for
making his September crop report.
One hundred and fifteen estimates of
the cost of growing an acre of corn
show an average estimate Of $13-95-
Last months estimate of the cost OF
growing an acre of wheat was $10.16.
1t is interesting to note that the gen.
eral opinion is that Il costs 1919 more
to grow an acre of corn than, an acre
of wheat. Corn would have to bring
about TIC per bushel on the average,
based on this estimate of 1880, to
pay the actual cost of production.
Corn has dropped to a condition of
58.4 per cent, which means but little
more than half crop. Burley tobac-
co still remains at 65 per cent, but
dark tobacco has dropped to a condi-
ton of 54 per cent. Alfalfa is 10 per
cent, cow peas "a per cent and soy
beans 72 per cent of an average crop.
The spring sown. clover shows an aver
age condition of SO per cent The
leguminous crops have held their own
better than any other crop during this
drought. Blue grass is given 60 per
cent, orchard grass at 62 per cent and
pastures, as a. whole, are very inferior.
Live stock has suffered very ma
terially on account of short pastures
and scarcity of water. The condition
of horses is given at 80 per cent, cat
tie 83 per cent, hogs 85 per cent and
sheep 92 per cent. The condition Of
poultry has likewise declined. Chick
ems are given as 80 per cent, turkeys
80 per cent and ducks 85 per cent.
All fruits have deteriorated.. Apples
are small, many dropping from the
trees, and their condition is shown as
81 per cent, peaches IA per cent,
| plums SO per cent, and pears SO per
cent. Garden conditions are deplora-
BILE, dropping to A per cent.

Mathewson and Plank are arguments

SOWING SEEDS TOO THICKLY
Practice Should Be Discouraged az
Overcrowding Undermines Guilt
walton Of Plants.

Thick sowing must be guarded
against. Each seed should have room
to grow without crushing or injuring
its neighbor.
Over-crowding undermines the cult
walton of plants at the start and it ia
long before, If ever. they outgrow it.
OF course, small plants or seeds may
be sown more thickly than the larger
ones, but relatively they ought really
not to be sown thicker.
Each plant should have sufficient
room to develop its coyledons and one
leaf before it is thinned or pricked
out.
Every year vegetable crops are much
injured by being sown too thickly and
perhaps it is hardly too much to affirm
that most gardeners would be the
gamers were only half the seed sown
that there is now.
AS to what to SOW the seed in, the
lighter the seed bed the better
Few seeds will vegetate in lower
temperature than 40 degrees and in
the range of 20 degrees all seeds will
grow.

Cause Of "White Comb"

white comb" in fowls is caused by
decayed food, impure water and over.

There is scurly appearance to the
comb and wattles, head and neck. with

head and neck. Treatment consists in
removing to clean quarters and giving
