HAD NO RATloNs TO SPARE
Good Reason Why Confederate Com.
-mander Was Willing to See tIIs
Prisoners Escape.

When, at Gaines Mill In 1862, the
Fifth Texas captured two whole regi-
ments of Union soldiers. the Texans
were all very proud of their achieve
ment. One of them has described an
amusing scene in connection with the
surrender.
When the Union officers gave up
their swords TO Colonel Upton, they
were 80 prompt in the duty that he
was compelled to lay down the frying
pan which he carried In the place OF a
sword and hold the weapons presented
In his arms.
Just then he noticed a commotion at
the far end of the captured regiments.
That was near the timber. and a squad
of the prisoners we're making an ef-
fort to pass by big John" Ferris of
Company B, who stood there unaided,
endeavoring to intercept them
Springing upon log. the armful OF
swords dangling about in every direc-
ton. Upton shouted:
John Ferris, what are you trying to
do now?"
Il am trying to keep these fellows
from escaping" yelled Big John.
Let them go. you fool" shouted
back Upton. Wed rather fight than
feed them!"

SUGGESTIONS FOR ICE TRUST
Should Be an Advance In Price
Of Summer Necessity.

The ice trust having offered silver
loving-cup for the best excuse which
might be invented for raising the
Price OF ice after the cold winter. We
hopefully submit the following:
/. The ice being so thick and heavy,
II costs more to handle 1t.
2. The blocks are so large that there
is great waste in cutting them up for
the retail trade.
8 The ice is so cold 1t freezes solid
in the storage houses and is very diff
cult to get out.
I. AS the winter has been so cold.
the summer will necessarily be very
hot, and the demand for ice very
great, so that 1t is doubtful II there
will be enough to go around.
s. The ice being extra thick, extra
cold, and extra quality all through, 1t
is only proper that an extra price
should be demanded.
6. The price of ice never had any
relation to the cost Of production, any
how.-Life.

Followed Her Vanished Nest.

This story Of a thrush that missed,
and caught its train comes from Lima
vady, in Ulser, Ireland. The bird had
built its nest under a first-class car
riage Immediately over the steam heat
ing pipe. and Notwithstanding that the
carriage travelled between Limayady
and Londonderry, the nest contained
four eggs.
The institution of the summer serv-
ice of train caused trouble. The car
rage left Londonderry In the evening
at 4:40 instead of 4:S0, and when the
mother thrush who had presumably
been on foraging expedition, re-
turned, she found carriage, nest and
eggs had disappeared She was no
ticed at Londonderry in apparent dis
tress, and the station master appraised
Limavady OF the circumstances and
asked the railway people there to look
out for the bird, suggesting that she
would probably arrive by the next
train. The bird duly arrived at Lima
vady either by train or air and re
sumed her task of Matching the eggs
The sympathetic railway officials
have decided to withdraw the carriage
from service pending the Matching OF
the eggs.

ScALY PSORIASIS ON LIMBS

GREAT DANGERS TO CHICKS
Chilling and Lice Cause More Loss to
the PouItryman Than Any
Other Two Causes

tBy W. e. VAPLON, Poultryman, Colo
RADIO Agricultural College.)
The greatest enemy Of the chick,
and that which causes more loss than
any other one cause, is chilling; the
second enemy In Importance because
Of amount of loss is lice; both lice and
chilling are the indirect cause Of bowel
troubles, because both sap the vitality
and life Of the chick. making it impos-
sible for the little fellow to resist the
organisms OF disease which are always
ready to attack It.
busting the setting hen helps, but
some lice are quite sure to escape, and
can later be found on the head of the
chick; rub a little dab of lard on top
OF the chicks head. getting 1t into the
down thoroughly, and you will get
these; repeat the dose in a week, and
IL the hen Is furnished n good busting
place, the lice are not likely to give
any more trouble; but whenever you
see a chick that seems unhappy, eyes
closed. droopy, look for lice.
The brood coops should be thorough
ly sprayed before using with some
coal tar preparation, sheep dip white
wash. or mixture Of four parts coal
oil and one part crude carbolic acid;
1t pays to be ahead. and that explains
why SO few Of us are making anything
on our poultry; We neglect these little
things; because of neglect disease
gets the start OF us. we become dis
couraged because Of the losses, and
give up and blame our luck, when all
the bad luck might have been pre-
vented by little careful preparation.
Give the chicks a clean place. all
the heat they can stand, keep them
free from vermin, and you can safely
count them before they are raised,

USING INCUBATOR ON FARMS
Valuable Substitute for Hen and Con-
trary to Common Notion Can
Be Easily Operated.

(By ]. @. HALPIN, Wisconsin Expert
ment Stauon)
The better types of incubators are
rapidly finding a place upon general
farms and In most cases proving to be
advantageous in raising larger num-
bers of sound, healthy chickens which
will be strong and nicely grown be-
fore hot weather comes and well ma
tured and laying before winter sets in.
In addition to this, the fact that
many of the modern farm breeds of
poultry are more inclined to produce
eggs than to hatch them makes 1t
more advisable for many farmers to
purchase good. reliable incubators.
II is easier to keep a hen laying
than 1t is to start her laying in cold
weather. For this, IL no other rea-
son, the modern incubator is valu-
able substitute. Contrary to too
common notion It can be easily oper-
ated by anyone who is more or less
careful and methodicl.
