DR.. Fritchey's Reds
Are Second in Contest

Perhaps it was to be expected that
something would happen in the thir-
teenth week of the International Egg
Laying Contest at Storrs, Conn. For
tunately, however, the thirteenth de-
veloped no i'll omens; on the other
hand, the signs of the week were ex-
ceedingly encouraging. The week
yielded 9S7 eggs as against 739 in the
previous week, or a gain of 24S eggs.
During the week sixty birds that
had not been previously laying became
producers" instead of consumers"
only. Within the past two weeks
nearly 100 new individuals have start
ed up the business of earning their
keep. The heavy breeds nosed the
the twelfth week, but not so in the
thirteneth.
The Wyandottes took first place for
the week with yield of SO eggs, two
pens giving the same production.
White Leghorns were second with 2S
eggs to their credit and three pens
tied for third place with 27 eggs each;
one pen of Rhode Island Reds from
Dearborn & Sharpe, Blairtown, n. J.,
one pen of Reds from DR.. J. a.
Fritchey, Harrisburg, Pa, and a pen
of English Wyandottes owned by Tom
Barron.
The best production for any one
day during the week was 175 eggs.
The prize winners for the month of
January are announced as follows:
The blue ribbon, or first, goes to
Tom Barron, of Catforth, England,
whose pen of White Wyandottes yield
ed 161 eggs for the month of January.
The second prize ribbon has been
awarded to DR.. j. A. Fritchey, Har-
risburg, whose Rhode Island Reds pro-
duced 131 eggs during the month

FARMER SAYS HENS
BRING BIG PROFITS
New York State Man Declares
There Is More Money in
Hennery Than Dairy

On farms of nearby counties the
partment. Hardly one farmer in a
hundred would seriously consider
chickens as offering the same possi-
bilities for profit that the dairy does,
but o. W. Mapes, a New York State
farmer, who is the proprietor of both
a dairy and hennery, enthusiastically
upholds the latter as the more profit
able and otherwise desirable. Here
are his own statements with reference
to the cows and hens on his farm:
81 keep 10 to IL cows and s to 10
units of hens. raising my own young
stock and buying all grain feed in
both cases. l started the year with
1900 hens. From the cows 1 have sold
during the year less than 81, 200 worth
of milk, beef and veal; to be exact,
S1,867.29. From the hens L have sold
during the same period $4,000 worth
of market eggs and poultry, besides
increasing my stock by 500 birds, easily
worth $500 more, making $4,000 in
all from the hens. The feed bills were
less than half of the total sales in
both cases, but the COWS have also con-
sumed harmful of hay.
THE COWS made far more work
than the hens. l hire one steady man.
He milks and cares for the cows.
care for the hens. The hens milk
themselves. His days work begins at
8 a. m. Mine often begins at 7.30.
The net returns from the hens are
greater than the gross sales from the
COWS. This in effect is equivalent to
relieving the milk producer from the
payment of all feed bills, besides giving
him his hay crop to sell for cash, and
no more labor involved. Put it an
other way. 1t is in effect equivalent
to new breed of cows, not only Civ
ing twice as much milk as present
breeds, but also giving it in sealed
bottles all ready to be. gathered up

The Link of Guilt
ITO my mind, this whole iniquitou.
business presents itself, so far as re-
sponsibility goes, as an unbroker
chain of five links. as follows:
First Link-The poor drunk

self-respect, his love of wife and
children, and his will power, Is
the first link in the chain.
Second Link The brewers.
dlstillerS and rum sellers of this
nation-a greet army of human
scavengers who subsist upon
blood money with as damnable
smirk upon it as that which Judas
lscariot received for betraying his
Lord. form the second link in the
chain.
Third Link-The judges who
grant the licenses to these
tratfickers in rum. among whom
these Is a vast difference of
opinion os to whether it is man
datory that they grant licenses
under the present laws or whether
it is their prerogative to refuse ali
licenses. constitute the third link
in the chain
Fourth Link-The lawmakers.
many of whom are elected by the
money OF these traffickers in
human lives and immortal souls.
and who, consequently, do the
bidding or the rum power, re-
gardless of the wishes of their
constituents. are the fourth link
in the chain.
Fifth Link-The people-the
individual citizens, many of whom
are processing Christians, the ma
Jority of them members of the
Church of Christ, who pray
straight on Sunday and vote
crooked on election day-who
elect these lawmakers to enact
laws which give these judges the
right to grant licenses to these
rum sellers to sell intoxicating
liquors to their fellow-men. CON.

which reaches from the drunkard

Students Suspended For
Allowing Tango Dancing
Special to The TcIegrabh

Gettysburg, Pa, Feb. 7.-Failing to
comply with an order of the college
authorities relative to the dancing of
the tango, six students of Gettysburg
College have been suspended for Il
period of two weeks.
At the beginning of the scholastic
year an order was issued to all the
fraternities forbidding the dancing of
the tango and all dances of a similar
nature At the dance held on January
IA, the committee, one member from
each of the six fraternities, having
the dance in charge, failed to adhere
strictly to the rule of two steps and
waltzes and one or two of the newer
dances were permitted.
The young men composing the COM
mittee were suspended.

have done this deed. This is proved
by the fact that when fully sobered,
after the fatal shot was fired, he re-
GREETED his act, repented of it, and,
we trust, found forgiveness in Gods
sight. At any rate, these heart-broken
friends have the comfort of knowing
that he died fully trusting in the
mercy of God, In Christ Jesus
The question l raise to-day is this:
Who is responsible for Allen Cupples'
death? NOT HE ALONE; THAT IS
CERTAIN. In his right mind he never
would have taken his own life. He
was under the influence of powerful
narcotic "a deadly poison - which
when introduced into the system robs
a man of his reason and renders him,
for the time being, insane. Being a
free moral agent, he Is responsible for
taking the poison, 1 grant you that.
But hear me: the rum seller who sold
him the drink over the bar is respon-
sible also for his death. The State,
which licensed the rum seller to sell
him drink, receiving 'ralxe-off' in the
shape of revenue, is responsible also
for his death. The city, or town, or
municipality which permitted the
State to set up an institution in its
ceiving a 'rake-of' i'm the shape of a
license fee, is responsible also for his
death. The people who constitute the
State, who make the laws which give
men the right to sell liquid damnation
to their fellows. are responsible also
for his death.
Here is the simple truth in nut
shell: The poison which rendered
Allen Cupples capable of this deed was
furnished him at the hands of q rum
seller, by authority and connivance of
the city. State and national govern
ments, which received a share of the
profits accruing from the sale of the
poison.
