Neale Hooker, 1915, was elected cap
tain at special meeting OF the letter
men held on Saturday. Hooker was the
unanimous choice Of the ballot. The
new captain OF basketball is one of the
prominent athletes in the high school.
For several years he has been closely
identified with basketball at Spaulding,
although the past season was his first as
a varsity" player. He will be very
fortunate in having an exceptionally
strong nucleus OF players left for an
other season. The only veteran to be
lost by graduation this season is Nelson
Browne, the center. Among the vet
Grams at Capt. Rockers disposal next
fall will be Levin, Tomasi, Gordon, Car
roll, I.obourveau, oliver and Smith.
Capt. Hooker is also a member OF the
high school baseball team and played

Broken HxdropIans at Sea.

A broken hydroplane was picked up
at sea off the north coast of Scotland
about week ago by the trawler Lord
Durham, when outward bound for the
fishing off the Farce islands. The por-
ton is about 16 feet in length, but
there are no Identification marks. 1t
has been deposited with the leceiver
of wrecks at Grimsby. There appears
to be some mystery in connection with
the matter. The admiralty have sta
tons in Orkney and at Cromarty, but
so far as is known publicly there has
been no accident of kind to leave q
portion of a hydroplane floating in the
water. 1t will be recollected that
some time ago there was an accident
at Cromarty to pilot who had taken
the first lord of the admiralty up for
several flights there. but the machine
was not left in the sea. The exact
place where the part of the hydro
plane was picked up is not given. and
unless there has been an unreported
naval mishap, 1t is impossible to &C
count for the find. 1t may be recalled
that at various times, as far north as
Shetland aid south to the Buchan
coast. and especially In Orkney, ru-
mors OF strange aircraft heard at
night were rife. The stories were
never authenticated, and were gener-
ally disbelieved. In any case, they
happened so long ago that the alleged
airships of that time can hardly be
connected with the Lord Durham's
freight

years old. son of the Rev. #. Codd.
was killed by Virgil Smith. IL years
ola. son Of f. ]. Smith, grocer. The
tragedy was the result of playing with
an old broken rife. young Smith play
ing he was the American troops In
vading Mexico.
The rife was given to Smith by a
blacksmith. so he might play soldier
with 1t. The trigger had been broken
on, and so far as known the rife was
not loaded when given the boy. BY
using nail for trigger, the boy got
the hammer so 1t would snap. Young
Smith invited Codd to play soldier
with him. Pointing the rife at Codd
with the muzzle close to Colds nose,
Smith said. Smell this" and then
Snapped the hammer There was re-
port and the Codd boy fell to the floor
MORALLY wounded The bullet en-
tered the nose and took an upward
course to the brain, where 1t was i'm
bedded. He died within fifteen min

Following . coroners inquest, young
Smith was arrested and taken to Osh-
kosh by the sheriff and District At
torney Mcdonald, where he Is held on
charge of murder. The district at
torney said that the evidence shown
at the inquest was such as would lead
to the belief that young Smith was OF
a vicious nature, having previously
threatened to kill three or four people
with the same gun before he shot and
killed young Codd.

JAPANESE PLUM is POPULAR
Many of These Varieties Are Earliest
on Market anoi Sell Readily at
Good Prices.
Bv @ NJ sHIrITzA


Plums of the Japanese variety are
popular with most growers, particu-
larry In the East, because they are
hardy and come on early. Many
of these varieties are the earliest in
the market, and as they are always of
good color, either cherry-reds or light
yellows, they sell readily and bring
good prices.
They will grow well on almost any
kind of decent soil, and do not need
to be particularly coddled, although
they should have all the care that any
good fruit tree deserves.
The japanese plum differs from the
domestic varieties In that its leaves
are longer, thinner and smoother, and
1t has greater tendency to produce
lateral fruit buds OIL the annual
growth. It's fruit is mostly short,
round and plump.
The Japanese plum is llable - IN
jury from curculio and black-knot
than the domestic varieties.

GOOD PROFITS FROM STEERS
Most Remarkable Results Secured at
Iowa Station With Five Different
Lots of Animals.

At the Iowa station, during the last
season, most remarkable results were
secured with FIVE different lots of ex-
perimental steers. The best paying
lot made a profit of s23.46 per head.
This lot received las pounds per
head daily of shelled corn, three
pounds cottonseed meal and 2S6
pounds silage. Other lots were fed
in comparison, receiving varying
amounts of the same feeds, and some
were fed clover hay in addition, but
the lot which received ration in
which the bulky part was silage and
the concentrates consisted of shelled
corn and cottonseed meal, was the lot
that turned off the most clean money.
No station has done as much eX-
perimertal feeding with silage ration
as the Indiana station at Purdue.
Many years of continuous records are
available at this station, and In no
instance, from the standpoints OF
gains and profits, does any ration COM
pare with those in which silage con-
stitutes an important feature. Last
year 20 head were fed in lots of ten
each. The lot receiving silage, oats
straw and cottonseed meal during the
first so days, and corn, cottonseed
meal, silage and clover hay during the
remainder of the period, made the
cheapest gains, but not the greatest
Disregarding the pork produced Incl
dentally, the lot fed On corn, cotton
seed meal and silage made a rront
of $20.96 per head.
The Illinois station has several
years of experimental data which
correspond closely to that already CIV
en-, and it is generally entirely favor
able 70 the use OF silage in the beef
ration. Illinois also found that for a
maintenance ration for breeding beef
cows. silage is a most desirable and
economical feed 1t cost 40 cents per
dav per head to maintain 40 days a
lot OF cows fed on silage, clover hay
and oats straw; 4.6 cents per day
TO ma,ntain a lot fed on shock corn,
clover hay and oats straw and 81
cents a day to maintain lot fed on

BY far the most expensive period
In the life of the calf is the first four
weeks, the cost being nearly double
that for any other four-week period.
This high cost is occasioned nv its be-
ing dependent almos. e'adrely upon
whole milk.
The man labor required in raising O.
heller is about 40 hours during the
first yeer and % hours the second
year The total cost of man All. horse
labor for the two years is close to So.
The manure produced during the two
years has been valued at So; conse-
quently, the cost of labor is practical
ly Offset by the value OF the manure.
TIE item "Other costs" consists Of
expenses usually overlooked in esti-
mating costs. These are interest,
charge for the use Of buildings and
equipment, expense for bedding, mis-
cellaneous expenses, a. share OF the
general expenses for the entire farm
business, and charge to cover losses
by death and discardipg. The total
for these forms nearly one-tifth Of
the total cost of the two-year-old
heller.
The foregoing figures show that IT.
costs more to raise calves to maturity
than is commonly supposed. and they
support the advice which the depart
ment is continually trying to impress
upon dairy farmers, that 1t does not
pay to raise any but the best heifers.
Raising scrub heifers and selling them
at $25 to $40 apiece, as many do, IL
Improbable except on cheap land or
under other very favorable conditions.
But it does pay to raise the best
heifers, for in good GARY sections we'll
bred heifers are worth considerably
mere than $50 when two years of age.
Furthermore, dairy farmers as rule
are obliged to raise their own stock
as 1t Ia difficult to buy productive
cows at reasonable price. In some
sections of the West where alfalfa is
worth only 81 or SIS a ton, or In the
Southwest where pastures furnish feed
the greater part of the year, this cost
may be greatly reduced. Even where
1t costs $50 TO raise heifer, two
thirds of this amount is charged for
feeds at market prices, large part Of
which can be grown on the farm at g.
profit. Thus by raising the heifers
the dairy farmer finds a home market
for feeds grown on the farm at re-
munerative prices, and at the same
time aids in maintaining the fertility
of the farm

FRANCISCO VILLA,
MASTER OF CRIME
Bloody Career of Carranza's
Chief General.
MURDERER AND PLUNDERER
Starting as Cattle Thief, He Has

Gen. Francisco Villa, leader of the
constitutional forces in northern Mexi-

his dash as commander gives to him
Importance as a news maker, over

Murder, plumber and outrage are
Villas specialties. He was reared that
way, and increasing opportunities
have made him a master hand In the
business. To Americans his career is
