COUNTY COURT HOTSE

Ithaca seems to have been spared
from a very bad epidemic of diphth-
eria because of the great care which
was taken at the outset and the elab-
crate preventive measures which were
taken Though great inconvenience
has been caused in a number of cases
through what seems to be excessive
zeal on the part of the health authori-
ties splendid results have been OBJ
tanned because of this care. The
schools were closed for five days, and
a general vaccination was made.
Everyone suspected of being Ill with
throat trouble was Immediately quar-
antined, and tests were made. The
State Board of Health at Lansing CO.
operated with the Ithaca authorities.
One of those who is confined to his
home because he is thought to have
been exposed is Commissioner of
Schools Howard Potter. The duties
of that office are now being taken care
of by County Clerk "Dick" Hughes.
Three cases in which Alma parties
were concerned were decided last
week in the Circuit Court at Ithaca,
which completed its work for the time
being last Friday. Judgment was
rendered in favor of Fred Hooper, who
was suing Horatio S. Connor for
$852.22 in an attachment case. The
case was the outgrown of the troubles
which were encountered in the affairs
of the Alma Illuminating Co. in which
both parties were interested. f. H.
Lyons represented Mr.. Hooper while
James G. Kress conducted the case for
Mr.. Connor.

CARING FOR THE CHICKENS
Mother Hen and Little Ones Should
Not BE Crowded Into Filthy Coop
Keep Houses Clean.

What's the use OF jamming an old
mother hen into the coop with brood
OF chicks every night. making tha
crowded coop more filthy and liable to
promote disease? Separate the old
hen from the chicks at once, and get
her to laying.
Don't think for one moment that,
simply because the poultry have
plenty of range. and get many varie-
ties Of feed. they need no grit fur

handful and see how quickly they de-

stantly, at the rate of about quart
for every fifty fowls three times a

AS all grass and ether green feed
soon will grow dry and short, try
planting some small beds of lettuce,
beets and radishes in the poultry yard.
and when the plants come up and are
beginning to grow well, remove the

DRY MASH FOR LAYING HENS
Ground Grains May Be Mixed in
About Equal Proportions by
Weight--Feed In a Hopper.

Cornmeal, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings and finely ground oats are suit
able ingredients for dry mash for
laying hens. Any one OF these in
gradients may be omitted without
seriously affecting either the health
or the egg yield. though it is an ex-
cellent plan to retain the wheat bran
on account of its laxative qualities.
These ground grains may be mixed in
about equal proportions by weight Add
also, unless fed separately, finely
ground alfalfa or clover, level tea
spoonful of salt to each dry quart of
mash, and for the best egg yield 20 to
rs per cent of beef scraps and bone
meal in the proportion OF S per cent.
Feed your mash in hopper that
does not waste it. If you do not have
such, use shallow box, Is to IS
inches square and no more than 6
inches high. Cover the mash with
one~half inch mesh wire, and just a
little smaller than the box.

According to London Newspaper, Col

Little Chance.

A brawny son OF Erin was acting as
time keeper In rough-and-ready fight
between his mate and negro in South
America. In the course of the fight a
well-planted blow sent the Irishman
earthwards.
"One!" cried the time keeper, in q
tense voice, watch in hand.
"Two!" he murmured hoarsely. pat.
We fool. git up! There's only eight sec
onds left"
The inert mass never moved.
"ThreeI" shouted the time keeper
desperately Think of yer old mother,
Pat! What's it she'd be saying to ye.
Bate the nigger!'p
Slowly he called up to eight. buck
ing up his mate with patriotic ejacula-
lions between each long second. When
eight had been called Pat slowly stag
gered to his feet. and by mighty
lunge succeeded in knocking down his
black opponent
Desperately fearing lest he should
revive in time. the time keeper set off
at top speed:
"One. two. three. four. FIVE, and
hves ten! Ye're out. We black yillain!"

IMPROVEMENT or THE FLOCK
Fowls for Show Purposes Require
Closer inbreeding Than Those
Intended for General Use.

After carefully looking over your
male birds if you do not notice any
predominating points which will tend
toward the Improvement Of your flock
it would pay you to purchase some
good male birds of the same breed
with the points desired. II your
flock has been too closely inbred it is
also advisable to buy males from an
other flock. Birds for show purposes,
as the first consideration, require
closer inbreeding than those for utility
purposes. This is necessary to gain
any noteworthy Roadway, and it is car
ried on by most of the successful poul-
try fanciers of today. There is limit
to such line of breeding. and for best
results it requires study and careful
selection of the matings.

Gen. John b. S. Todd. soldier OF
three wars and governor OF Dakota

In Lexington. KY In his youth he
removed with his parents to Illinois.

guished himself in the siege OF Vera

brush and watch the fowls devour the
tender greenness to their satisfaction
and your profits.
The early chicks are the ones that
will make the winter layers. Oh, yes.
they'll bring In little more money
just now than the later chicks. but
If you ever expect any improvement
in your flock, and want to get eggs
during the winter months, when they
are the highest price. you'll have to
take long-range, future squirt at the
proposition, and act accordingly.
Don't, for goodness sake. allow the
poultry to form the habit Of roosting
out in the trees and the open places
during the hot summer months. If
you do. ten chances to one you'll let
them roost right there till they are
caught by severe freeze. BY keep
ing the poultry houses fresh and clean.
and furnishing plenty Of ventilation,
all this trouble of roosting outside
may be prevented.
