Traffic Policemen
Have Large Umbrellas

Washington traffic policemen enjoy
the distinction OF being better provided
for in the way of protection from the
elements. TO which they are exposed
in all kinds of weather, than possibly
do, men of a similar branch OF the
police service of other large cities.
Recently large stationary umbrellas
were placed at the intersections of
streets, avenues. and roadways where
the traffic policemen do duty. A later
convenience is the installation at the
heavy cast-iron base of the umbrella,
of a neat little wooden platform about
two and a half feet square. which is
for the protection of the policemen's s
feet from water. the heat of the asphalt
pavements and the cold of the pave
ments of winter
These platforms are raised three
inches above the pavement That the
policemen on these stations appreciate
these little projections and comforts Is
evident.

way at price absurdly low when its
food value is considered,
have in mind now a woman in my
city who owns a restaurant not very
large one, either. She also has
chicken farm about twelve miles from
the city. and she sends out to tho
farm once a week from six to ten pota-
to sacks of waste bread for her chick
ens---bread which but for utilizing It
thus would be thrown away. The re-
suit is that she makes a big profit on
the chickens and eggs she sells.
Another kind of chicken feed which
the near-city poultryman can get In
large quantities is fresh buttermilk In
cities where there are creameries OF
butter companies.
Such companies sell great deal OF
buttermilk. but nothing like as much
az they could sell, and great deal OF
Il is turned into the sewer; so, IL a
poultryman with two or three hundred
chickens wished to buy 1t in, say FIVE
gallon lots, he would be able to get II
very cheaply-perhaps for five cents
a gallon, for the butter maker would
surely prefer selling 1t, even at this
price, to throwing IL away.
This buttermilk is especially good
for chickens cooped up to fatten for
market, for the acid in the milk is
good for their digestion in the winter
when they cannot get green stun, and
also while they are cooped up where
| they cannot take exercise.
Very few things are as fattening as
slightly sour milk curds, sweetened,
| heated to blood heat and with some
refuse grease or meat drippings from
! the kitchen added Such fat making
food is better for fattening chickens.
| however, than for hens with broods.
Put two or three gallons OF this milk
/ in a large pot, sweeten 1t with cheap
| brown sugar and add the meat drip
/ pings, stir while it is heating, and
pour into a small -four sack or other
thin sack. and hang up in a warm
, place to drip. Put pan under 1t to
catch the whey, which is good for ma
king bran or corn meal mashes.
When the curds are reasonably dry
dip them out as needed, and put them
in little troughs alongside the coops
where the chickens can reach the
food through the wires without getting
into II with their feet. Put in only
what they will eat up clean each time.
Another advantage the small poul
tryman has near the city is that he
is accessible to diaries where he can
get skim milk from separators. which
is also exceedingly good for fattenine
chickens, in making up mashes of diff
ferent kinds

FOUNDATION OF
SUCCESS IN HOGS
Diseases Caused by Filthy Pens
Quite Often Mistaken for
Cholera.

(By DIR. T.. s. SCHOENLEBER. State
Veterinarian OF Kansas)
Cholera. parasites and pneumonia
are some of the worst troubles hog
breeders have to fight this time OF
year, The parasites, or worms us
they are called, commonly, are always
with the hogs. more or less. 1t will
be possible to eradicate cholera from
the swine industry before the breed
ers will be able to rid their stock OF
parasites. Pneumonia may be pre-
vented by keeping the hogs from TAX
ing cold.
Hogs are kept for years on the
same degeneration after generation
until the soil becomes saturated
with the different parasites and their
eggs With such surroundings a hog
is certain to be affected. The ami
mails lock scrawny. and cholera is
blamed for their condition.
Sanitation is the foundation OF sue
cessful hog rearing. A hog lot should
be plowed frequently, and thoroughly
disinfected Every two or three
years the lot should be changed to a
new location. A hog isn't dirty in its
habits. If given half a chance IL viii
keep clean.

deprive It of chance to change. II
destroys It. we must make changes
in our fiscal laws. in our fiscal system,
whose object is development, a more
free and wholesome development, not
revolution or upset or confusion. We
must build up trade, especially for
eign trade. We need the outlet and
the enlarged field OF energy more
than we ever did before. We must
build up industry as we'll and must
adopt freedom In the place of arti-
fetal stimulation only so far as it will
build, not pull down. In dealing with
the tariff the method by which this
may be done will be a matter of judg-
ment, exercised item by item.
To some not accustomed to the ex-
elements and responsibilities Of
greater freedom our methods may in
some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies. Our object Is clear.
II our motive is above just challenge

ment is chargeable against us. we

and well considered, based upon the
facts as they are, and not worked out
as IL we were beginners. We are to
deal with the facts of our own day,
with the facts of no other, and TO
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed It is neces-
sary, to begin with the tariff. 1 will
urge nothing upon you now at the

energies from that clearly defined
