What Hen Can Earn in a Year.

At the conclusion of an article on
The Poultry Business, in Farm and
Fireside, appears the following:
The four corner-stones upon
which the success of the poultry bus
mess depend are: CD suitable build
ings, properly located. (2) the right
foods, skillfully fed. CD good fowls,
carefully bred. (4) facility and abil-
ity to hatch and rear chickens
If anyone is willing to employ
some common sense, there is no reas-
on why he should not be able to clear
$500 over feed expenses from one
hundred layers. A good many are
doing much better"

POUNDING
 ID BAPTIST PASTOR

Monday evening the friends of Rev. and Mrs. B. D. Griffin gave them a surprise pounding" celebrating the pastors birthday. A table full of the good things were brought and after several rousing choruses were sung, ice cream and cake were served by the ladies. The following original poem was then rendered by Rev. A. B. Tomlinson of the Valley Baptist church.:
 Little Bennie, he's not toy, But a bright and smiiins Daby boy; Of all the babies there isn't any That thrills the heart like Little Ben
 nie.
 The birthdays come and the birthdays And things do change with boy you
 know;
 Not Little Ben, not even Ben, So large has he grown that he's Big
 Ben.
 Big Ben? O yes, that's right you see, But that is not all, for we agree, Big heart to love, big head to plan, A big hand to help his fellowman. The birthdays come an dthe birthdays
 go,
 But fewer for you Big Ben, we know The last will come Big Ben, to you, But see our Christ has a crown for
 you.
 A crown we hope with stars to shine, And press thy brow beyond all time, Where birthdays neither come nor go And all are free from sorrow and woe.
 Mir. Warren Stevens also gave a cOlOred mans sermon which was very highly enjoyed. The occasion was heartily enjoyed by all; and, after wishing the genial pastor many hapry returns of the day, the crowd return ed to their homes.

TUMCO MILL Is SHUT
 DOWN. SOON 10 START

TUMCO, Cal, July 29.-(Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner. .)-The mill here closed down about the 18th, for a month The tube mill is the only one running day and night; but it is understood that the old mill will be pounding ore from The Cross in- side of two weeks. This is very fine grade and good paying rock.
 The Cross mine was closed down on or about the 11th, but will start working as soon as the mill is ready to receive this good paying rock, which is very much in evidence even to the naked eye on the 11OO-ft. and 1200-ft. levels.
 The American Girl Mining Company runs stage to Ogilby, when desired, to bring passengers or take passen- gers to the s. P railroad. If the camp is started they will run a stage daily or every other day, as most miners will bring their families, which was the case before the mine and mill closed down just a short time ago, when the company maintained a general store on the premises.

LATE DOPE IN THE
 WORLD OF BOXING

Big Jess Willard, the Texas cowboy, is still making strenuous effotrs to obtain recognition in California. At present he is trying to inveigle Arthur Penky, the Chicopee heavyweight, in- to a match.
 Within a few weeks the KenOsha, Wis, promoters will inaugurate re- vival of the sport. Boxing in that state now is legal and the boxing fra ternity anticipates a busy fall and winter season. Legalized bouts will do a lot to help the sport in the Mid dle West. ..
 Jack (Twin) Sullivan, of Boston. has been matched to box Soldier Kearns, the Brooklyn heavyweight, in a ten-round match at the Queensberry A C., Philadelphia, on the night of August 22.
 They have devised an ingenious, albeit somewhat mirthful, method of ducking Langford out on the coast. He is not to be allowed to fight because he is a prize fighter with an reputation" The idea evidently being that it wouldn't be fair to the boys who have stuck here at home Speaking of fighters with an international reputation, has any one taken steps to bar Bombardier Wells? If not, why not? Wells has more of decided international repu- tation than any one we know. He has been knocked out in nearly every city of importance in the known world and one in Belgium.

RAILROAD BUSINESS
 FUR MONTH OF MAY

Especial to the Yuma Daily Examiner)
 WASHINGTON, D. C., July 30.- During May the railways of the United States received for their ser vices to the public an average of $S,- 130,0G0 day; it cost to run their trains and for other expenses of oper- GtiCh $5,920,000 a day; their taxes were $341, 300 day; their operating income $1,972,322 a day for the 22O,- S97 miles of line opperating, or at the rate of $893 for each mile for each day. Thus for every six dollars of their earnings which remained available for rentals, interest on bonds, appropriations for betterments, Improvements and new construction, and for dividends, the railways had to pay more than one dollar in taxes.
 All of these amounts are substan- 'tially greater than the similar re- turns for. May, 1912. They are from the summary of the earnings and ex- penses complied by the Bureau of Economics from the monthly reports of the steam railways of the United States to the Interstate Con- merce Commission. They include over 95 per cent of the mileage and earnings of all of the railways of the country

EXAMINER MAN SENDS GOOD
 NEVIS FROM AMERICAN GIRL

 In the camp I met MT. Eye, the su- perintendent. From his manner 1 pre- sume he understands the business, though I do not have the pleasure of his acquaintance.
 One noticeable feature was the fact that all hands were working at ca pacity. Just as soon as the new mill is set up the mine will resume opera tions again.
 There are no families here at pres ent, but as many new houses are be- ing erected, it is presumed tht com pany will use large force of men up- on the resumption of operations here.
 The blacksmith shop has it's hands full of work
 It has not been definitely deter mined when the mine will reopened, but there is every indication that the miners will placed at work as soon as the mill will be ready to receive the ore.
 The American Girl company is now making arrangements with the Tumco company to make connection with their pipe lines, as they did when this mine was running some time ago.

MT. w. H. Shorey,
 Yuma Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 I walked over here this morning from Tumco, over an old trail. The mine is about miles from the Tumco camp where the mines and mill are located. The American Girl mine and mill are nearly three miles east.
 Fifty men are pulling down the old mill, where the company will in stall a new mill Some were at work leveling ground for new water tank. The company has a good tank, but l presume they will need lot of water as they will use much in the cyanide tanks and for the use of the mill and mine and to supply good many houses.
 The company has good bunkhouse and with little repairing or remodel ling, this camp will be a lively one
 A good many carpenters are at work putting over new timbers in the dump and and building new houses, besides doing a little repairing to the company houses which were damaged by storms.
 The water supply of the camp is a we'll about a quarter of mile from the mine and mill, where the old store and mess house are situated. The mess is run by three Japanese and

BEAUTIFUL PORTO RICO
"A CHARMING ISLAND
Whose 100000 Inhabitants Are
Waiting To Embrace
True Religion.

Porto Rico, one of the most
charming of the islands of the west
ern tropics, is almost a foreign mis-
sion fieii in the home land. There
are 100000 inhabitants in Porto
Rico, the large majority of whom
live in rural districts and know lit
tie of nothing of Christ's real re-
demptive work.
Until fourteen years ago the doors
of this beautiful island were closed
except to Spain and the Roman
Catholic church Some one has said
that her exclusiveness was almost
equal to that of ancient Judaism;
no Independence of religious liber-
ty was allowed. But the door was
opened in 1898. when the island
passed into the hands of the United
States Government, and the people
seemed to be waiting for Protestant
Christianity.
This seems to be the day of oppor-

to Rico and for the educational, So
