Tokyo, Japan.-"In Shinewara, on
the island of Shikoku, japan, long be-
fore the theory of evolution had been
heard of. the natives undertook to
breed ROSTERS with one aim-the
lengthening of the tail feathers of the
ordinary barnyard cock. BY patient
selection of breed of fowls (the hens
of which sometimes have tail feathers
eight inches long,, continued through
a hundred years, the rooster which is
pictured here has tail feathers which
measure 10 feet in length. Naturally,
in breeding ROSTERS with such long
tails, it is necessary to confine them

New Invention.

European motorists are interested
in an invention that may offer a solu-
ton for the motorists worry lest he
may be running with soft" tire. A
plunger is constructed within the air
valve stem, and the foot of this is adj
Unstable, so that 1t may be set to
sound an alarm at any degree of defia-

are a pair of electrical contacts that
close when the soft tire presses the
plunger foot. These contacts are
wired to ring a warning bell in the
machine.

The display OF Buttercups at the re-

New York, more fowls were shown OF
that breed than had ever been cooped
in any other show. They are among
the most recent breeds to be taken
up by the American breeders, and
though they are of an old Sicilian
breed, have been prominent In this
country for a comparatively short
time.
The breed IL becoming more and
more popular In other countries. They
are egg machines az are most OF the
other Mediterranean breeds. They
lay well, Smelling out large white

IN very close quarters, so that 1t Will
be impossible for the feathers to wear
out or mott. The fowl is therefore
placed in a narrow cage-so narrow
that he cannot turn round in it. Once
every day or two he is taken out and
allowed to stretch his legs, under the
careful surveillance Of an attendant.
To keep his plumage in good shape,
from time to time he is given a bath
and carefully dried after it. Through
this careful and well-planned routine
the cock lives out its allotted span Of
life, which authorities say is from
eight to nine years. The rooster seen
in the photograph is the property Of
Matsuzawa, a dealer in antiques, at
the famous mountain resort, Miyano-
shia, on the island of Shikoku.
