MILLIONAIRE IS
 TOWN DOG CATCHER

Chicago, H., May 22.-The sight of a millionaire citizen in earnest and vigorous pursuit of stray dogs and other animals, for the capture of winch he wll receive small fee, no longer will surprise residents of New Trier Township, Chicago suburb.
 As result of last Tuesdays elec- ton Sherman M. Booth, millionaire, leader of the Progressive party, and whoes wife is prominent in national woman's suffrage circles, was elect ed poundsmaster. Neither the New Trier Good Government League, of winch MT. Booth is the head, nor its opponents made a nomination for poundmaster, but when the ballots were counted it was found Mir Booths name had been written in more frequently than any other.
 "A practical joke" is MT. Booths explanation of his election. II will take the office" he said "and fill it efficiently" 70
 He indicated that he believed his easiest capture would be the goat ol his opponents. The office carried no salary, the incumbent being paid on a commission basis.

example, a mixture of equal parts by measure of kafir corn, oats, and barley will produce good results, Scatter small handful of this mix ture for every three hens in the litter morning and noon, and give them all they will eat of it in a V-shaped trough at night. In the wintertime some green feed should be fed at noon: cabbage or gel-wurzels, either chopped or whole, are good. Every few days look in the litter carefully and see if the fowls are eating all the grain being given them; if not, re- duce the quantity. Fowls that have to work for what feed they get seldom become overfat. Grit and oyster shells in a hopper should always be kept before them. The grit is used to grind their feed, and the oyster shell furnishes the lime for the eggshells Be sure to keep water before them at all times. Birds that are laying drink much more water than those that are not laying. The water should be kept out of the direct rays of the sun.
 The period of time it takes to hatch eggs of the domestic hen is 21 days There are two methods of incubation and brooding namely, natural an( artificial. In natural incubation ant breeding the hen is allowed to sit or a nest of eggs and brood or mother the young chicks when matched.

POULTRY KEEPING
 IN THE SUBURBS
Federal Expert Lays Down Rules for Fanciers Who
 Would Succeed

Washington, May 22.-Of the vari- ous kinds of live stock, poultry is most widely adapted to suburban con- ditions for several reasons. It can be handled successfully on a very small amount of land. The waste products from the kitchen and the table may be used to advantage as feed. The care of the chickens is pleasant work, is comparatively simple. and may be done by any member of the family. Eggs and dressed poultry are always in demand and may be sold to ad- vantage in any quantity, of used at home, thus furnishing strictly fresh product which is hard to secure under general market conditions: and in ad- dition, the care of poultry may pro- vide recreation for adults, employ men and good discipline for the children, and be a source of income to the housewife. or saving in the food account for the family, say poul- try specialists of the Department of Agriculture.
 Popular Breeds.
 The following breeds are among the most popular in this country: Plymouth Rocks. Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds. Orpingtons and Single Comb White Leghorns. The Legh- orns belong to the egg-laying class of fowls, lay a, white egg and are especially adapted to large conner Cial egg farms, or to sections winery a white egg brings premium over brown eggs. The other breeds belong to the general-purpose class, and lay brown eggs. They are better adapted to the average person. or the farmer who keeps only small num- Der of fowls, as they are good layers and also make good table poultry Another advantage of the general purpose breeds is that they will hatch eggs and brood their chickens. while the Leghorns, and other breeds of the egg-laying class are non-sitters.
 A great variety of methods of feed ing and caring for poultry are used successfully. Matching and breeding, or rearing chickens under hens, is the best method to use where small number of chickensIare raised and especially if the care is apt to be ir- regular. lncubators and breeders may be used also, but they increase the cost of equipment considerably. Chickens can be reared under hens successfully by keeping the hens con fined in the brood coop, while allow ing the chickens to roam at will.

 PoDOLax Releases the Bile.
 Bile is Natures disinfectant and purifies the food in the intestines Without it we sicken-with a free flow we are immune from germs be- cause no foreign germ can multiply after immersion in Bile.
 PoDoLax releases the Bile from the Liver It does it gently, but surely, and after a few days your fuzziness disappears.

Do Not Crowd.

, When many fowls are kept in a small space, the ground becomes so foul that in time it becomes difficult to rear chickens with good success. In order to avoid this condition, it is ad- visable to divide the lot and SOW part of it with some of the quick-growing grains such as, oats, wheat, or rye. By this method the yards may be rotated every three or four weeks during the growing season, turning the hens onto the growing grain when it is a few inches high A good combination of grains is oats and wheat in equal parts, sowing 6 or ' bushels to the acre 43,56O sq. ft), and using wheat along for the last seeding in the fall.
 Fresh Air Essential.
 The prime essentials in poultry houses are fresh air, dryness, sun- light, and space enough to keep the birds comfortable Allow about 4 square feet of floor space per bird for the general-purpose breeds, and 5 square feet for the smaller breeds. A good egg-laying ration may be made of dry mash of equal parts of corn meal, bran, middlings and beef scrap, which is kept before the birds in a hopper all of the time: and scratch ration of equal parts of corn, wheat and oats feed in litter to inches deep twice daily. Regulate this feed so that the birds eat about one-half mesh and one-half scratch grain, which will mean feeding about 1 quart of mixed grains daily to 12 Plymouth to order to utilize the waste table pro- ducts to the best advantage, moist mash may be used in place of the dry mash, feeding once daily. If it con- tains much meat, table scraps may be submitted for the beef scrap; if not, merely add it to the mash given above.
 Select Stock Carefully.
 The selections of stock is matter of considerable importance, as great deal of ones success or failure with poultry depends upon the individual specimens used to bree dfrom. Care should be taken to select the early maturing, fast growing bullets. Hens will not as a rule. lay until they are well matured; consequently it can be readily seen that the slow-growing breeds will not begin to lay as soon as the former A good index to hens ability to pay profit over the cost of feed and labor is her ability to be con tinually on the move. It is advisable to keep but one breed of pure-bred fowls, as the product from flock of the same variety is more uniform than from flock of mixed breeds or mongrel stock
 It takes healthy, well-fed flock to produce eggs. Fowls must not be al- lowed to become too fat, as but few eggs will be laid by hens in such con- dition. To prevent their getting overfat, it is best to make them work for most of their feed by scratching in the litter, of which there should be about inches on the floor. This lit ter can be of straw, leaves, or chaff, and should always be kept dry.
 Feeding For Eggs.
 A good feed for egg production is one composed of corn, wheat, and oats equal parts by measure. It is advis- able to use homegrown grains when ever possible. In sections where corn and oats do not thrive, other grains can be used to good advantage; for

Profit BY Past Experience.

The Geramns are not new at this
form of coast defense, and in this great
war they are but profting by past ex-
perience. The moral effect of subma-
rine mines was amply demonstrated
in the Franco-Prussian war of 1870.
Then the Prussians defended their
principal harbors in the North Sea and
the Baltic by means of mechanical and
electro-mechanical mines.
During the war no opportunity oc-
currred to test the efficiency of these
mines, as the mere fact of their pres
ence prevented the French feet from
undertaking operations.
The kaiser's own people were the
first to reap the fruit of their own
planting. On raising their mine field
after the war of 1870, the Germans lost
g. great many lines through unexpected
explosions.

HAVOC BY THE DEADLY SUBMARINE MINES EA
PECTED TO BE VAST IN EUROPES WAR

The submarine mine is going to play
great part in the present European
conflict. Probably it will cause more
havoc than in the Japanese-R Russian
war.
Already one British ship the Amphi-
on has been destroyed by North Sea
mine laid by the Germans, with the
loss of 120 men. 1t might be called
poetic justice that the ship which plac-
ed the mine, the Koenigen Luise, was
caught red-handed by a fotilla Of
British destroyers and sent to the bot
tom. However, the kaiser's mine-layer
already had sown the seed of disaster,
and the North Sea may see as many
ships hit below the water line and sent
to Dayy Jones locker as were sunk by
mines in the Yellow Sea in the Japa-
llCoC- 1NuoSldh 81 Us SIC
United States Agrees to Usage.
Great Britain has now determined to
plant similar mines in al off-shore
havigable waters, and it is creditably
reported that Austria-Hungary, France
and Russia have done likewise.
To the peace lover this menace to
shipping is wcefully shocking, and yet
it is substantially in keeping with the
international agreement entered into
at The Hague after the conflict in the
Far East.
This country cannot mince matters.
The United States was party to that
understanding.

WILL THE WAR BE A
LONG ONE?
By Mail in U. S. and Mexico

No one is wise enough to foresec
whether or not the war in Europe will
be a long one, and yet there is no
other question at this time in which
the whole world is so profoundly in
terested All civilized countries are
feeling the effects of it; those in the
war zone many times more than those
outside of the zone. English states
men are acting on the belief that it
will be long struggle and that peace
will come only after the beligerent
nations have reached the point of ex-
haustion. Here and there, however,
the opinion has found expression that
it will end much sooner than is gener.
ally expected.
The Germans are making every eli
fort TO reach Paris, the metropolis Of
France, and they are meeting with
some success. The Russians are push
ing on to Berlin, the capital of Ger
many. 1t is a question which will
reach their goal first, though the
chances are in favor of the Germans.
But it is doubtful if the Germans will
be able to reach Paris much before
the Russians reach Berlin, not in time
to permit the Germans to spare large
part Of their force to stay the pro-
gress of the Russians and save their
capital from capture.
Paris is strongly fortified, much
more strongly than it was in 1870,
and it required one hundred and thir-
ty-two days to reduce its fertilization
at that time. 1t may take the Germans
a monh yet to reach Paris. Hence it
may be five months before the Ger
mans are in possession of that city
even supposing that they will be able
to take it. In that time the Russians
ought to capture Berlin, if they are
able to take it at al.
With the Germans in possession Of
Paris and the Russians in possession
of Berlin isn't it reasonable to suppose
that here would be a parlay-that both
sides would be willing to utilize Pres
ident Wilson's offer Of the good offices
of this country to settle the differences
of the warning nations?
In considering the possibility Of a
settlemen under such conditions II
must be remembered that Germany
will not be so favorably situated for
debating terms to France as she was
in 1870. Then Frances armies had
