Madison-Frank Avery Hutchins,
founder and first secretary of the Wis
consin free library commission and
one of the leading educators of the

legislature that year. For two years
he served on the commission without

tary of the Wisconsin Anti-Tubercul-

Beloit. While Beloit firemen were

turned in a false fire alarm from a

full punishment if the fellow should

Says He Was Not Warned Of Open
ing of Gates-Flood Washes
Out Mill Dam.

Madison. Attorney General w. c..
Owen and Assistant Attorney General
J. E. Messerschmidt are at Waukesha
to represent the state in the suit
brought by George Appelbacher
against the state and Ephriam Hum
phrey of Oconomowoc for $4,000 dam
ages for the loss of his dam in Bark
river, Waukesha county, which was
washed out on May 81, 1912. because
Humphrey opened the gates of his
dam, a short distance above it, with
out notice, it is claimed, in order to
save his property and that of the state
fish hatchery near Oconomowoc which
was being threatened by high water
Appelbacher used his water power to
run grist mill, which has been lying
idle since the dam went out as it
would not pay to run it by other pow
er. Appelbacher petitioned the legis-
lature to reimburse him for his loss,
but that body would not do so. 1t,
however, passed a law authorizing him
to bring suit against the state, and
If his claim was meritorious he could
recover. According to the complaint
in the suit brought by Appelbacher,
the state had contract with Hum
phrey, owner of the upper dam, to
maintain certain level of water in
his dam for the benefit of the state
fish hatchery near Oconomowcc.

POULTRY
PRACTICAL TALK ON POULTRY
Much Advice Given by Theoretical
Writers Not Worthy of Consid-
Grafton on Average Farm.

The advice commonly given in poul-
try papers would require one to exer-
else nearly as much pains in the
cleaning of chicken house as in the
cleaning of a kitchen. Such advice
may be suitable for the city poultry
fanciers, but some of it is out of place
when given to the farmer Poultry
raising, the same as any other farm
work, must pay for the labor put into
it, and this will not be the case if at
tempt is made to follow all the sug-
gestions of the theoretical poultry
raiser.
The ease with which the premises
may be kept reasonably free from lit
ter and filth is largely matter of
convenient arrangement. The handi-
est plan from this viewpoint is the
colony system. In this the houses
are moved to new locations as the
ground becomes soiled. II the chicken
house is stationary structure, it
should be built away from other
buildings, scrap-piles, fence corners,
etc, so that the ground can be fire.
quently freshened by blowing and
sowing in oats, rye or rape. The
ground should be well sloped, so that
the water draining from the surface
may wash away much of the filth
that on level ground would accumu-
late. Cleanliness indoors can be
simplified by proper arrangement.
First, the house must be dry. Poultry
droppings, when dry, are not source
of danger if kept out of the feed.
This may be accomplished by pro-
viding dropping boards under the
roosts, The droppings in the poultry
house should be removed often enough
to prevent foul doors. 1t is best to
clean it every day. Dry earth, gath
cred in the fall and stored in bins, is
an excellent cleansing agent to use
On the dropping board of the chicken

rinsed out when refilled and not al

Many poultry writer's give innumer-
able diseases and lists of remedies
concerning which the average farm
poultryman needs no knowledge
whatever. There is very little def
nitely known on the subject of poul-
try diseases. Poultry ailments are
assignable to one of the three follow
ing causes, or combination of these:
First, hereditary or Unborn weakness;
second, unfayorable conditions of food,
surroundings, ETC.; third. germs or
animal parasites.

ROCK RIVER GETS CLEANED
Piles for Building on Main Stree
Bridge Are All Removed De-
spite Owners Protests.

GAINESVILLE Despite the protests
of the owners of the lots located in
Rock river, where the stores which
were destroyed last April were loca-
ted, the city has completed the work
of pulling out the pilings upon which
they were built In some cases they
had been reinforced by concrete cas-
ings and these were dynamited. The
work will clear the river of all OBJ
struction below the new bridge
which will be formally opened soon.
The action of the city in this direc-
ton may establish it's right to keep
the river open at this point, despite
the decision of the supreme court,
which granted the abutting property
owners the right to build over thu
stream.

The prevention Of the second class
of ailments comes under the general
head OF Feeding" A chicken, wheth-
er young or old, to thrive well, must
have exercise, clean water, grit, va
riety of grain food, green or succu-
lent food, and casein or meat foods.
The food requirements of laying
hen are very like those required by
"a growing chicken. Yarded or shut-in
hens should be supplied with more
lime than the food contains, however,
to provide for the egg shell, Crushed
oyster shell is much used for this
purpose.
The third class of ailments belongs
to the group of contagious diseases.
These contagious diseases may be
grouped into the general classes:
First, those highly contagious; sec
ond, those contracted by fowls that
are in a weakened condition. Chicken
cholera is representative of the first
class. This is spread by droppings
and dead birds. and through feed
and water To stamp out the disease,
kill and burn all sick chickens, and
disinfect the premises frequently and
