Baseball Team
Arvada will have a home base
ball team this summer. This
was fully decided upon by q
meeting of the members of last
years first and second teams
Tuesday night when the second
team agreed to take over all the
property and liabilities of the
first team and endeavor to KEEP
up Arvada's envious reputation
in the baseball circles.
The new club will probably
bear the name of the "Arvada
Dry Climates"in advertisement
of our town and the Dry Climate
Tire Manufacturing industry.

company has given the new
organization a check for neat

promised the club his moral and
financial support.

ing all around and everyone is
going to boost for the home team.
Last year the management of
the old team found it advisable
to employee a number of outside
men to keep up their reputation
and while there can be no ques-
ton about the merits of the play
ers, the plan proved very expen-
sive in two ways-the salaries of
the men and the loss in gate re.
ceipts on account of the lack of
local interest in the team.
This year it is believed the
local interest will be revived
and as there is some good mat
erial in the second team. when it
is augmented by other good mat
erial from the old first team with
a few recruits it is hoped to build
up formidable aggregation.
The officers were elected as
follows:
Pres. M. J. Boretz.

WHEAT Is MOVED QUICKLY

While Omaha grain receipts are
fairly heavy and quite up to this time
a year ago, stocks in storage continue
to decrease. The decrease is at
tributed to two causes. One is that
wheat received is sent out about as
fast as It comes in, and the other
cause is that new oats have not COM
menced to appear on the market in
large quantities.

From four to eight walnuts to each hen is great abundance
 The best plan is to lay the nuts on A solid block and strike each heavy blow with wooden mallet. This crushes the shell and scatters both shell and kernels through the scratching material where the hens work to find it. l.[---
 Poultry-fed on common grains do not need nearly as much grain if walnut kernels are fed three or four times week. and the ex- erciso the hens get in the search for the sweet morsals of food puts the hens in the condition for laying, and the best of it all is, the walnut diet induces them to lay eggs while we have Winter weather and eggs are at top prices

Curious lOin Diamond Eardrops Held at the New YorL House, Actually Haue Been Worn by the Ancient Queen
 When She Visited King SoLonon2

A. Yes. l travelled around buying articles which l sold to antiquarians and amateurs.
 Q. What was ycur Constantinople address?
 A. No. IA zindjirli-han. Grand Bazaar.
 Q. Where did you have these dia- mands-in your baggage or on your person?
 A. l had them on my person with other antiques.
 Q. What were the other antiques {?
 A. Seventeen antique silver Greek coins, two gold ones, and one gold buckle.
 Q. From whom did you buy the diamonds?
 A. From an Egyptian princess in Constantinople.
 e. What is the lady's name?
 A. cannot say-I bought them through broker named Moustapha.
 o. What made you think them an- tiques?
 A. The crude cutting of them is more than 250 years old.
 Q. What makes you think they were used as earrings?
 A. They were used only as ear- rings. They are pair, each of the same size and of the same kind, and the pointed end of each is pierced.
 Q. You believe them to be parts of earrings now?
 A. Yes-and all the world would agree to that
 Being a certificated antiquarian, with professional reputation at stake, Antikadjian naturally would make no formal claim that his dia- monds had once belonged to the Queen of Sheba. He would not even refer to the existing tradition to that e1fect-especlally to customs off cials, who are the reverse of cred ulous in such cases. It was enough for him to present expert evidence showing that they were antiquities, and as such were exempt from duty. To show that the crude cutting of the stones proves them to be more than 250 years old" was technically sufficient.
 It is upon the acceptance of this proof that B. A. Levett, the Ar menian's attorney, expects to have the Queen of Sheba's diamonds ad- mitted free of duty.
 That uncut diamonds were includ- ed among the precious stones" which the Queen of Sheba brought to Jerusalem with the hundred and twenty talents of gold. and of spices very great store," which she pre- sented to King Solomon, there is no reason to doubt; or that these stones formed part of her own regal adorn- ment. Even in that ancient time long before any means of cutting either diamonds or rubies had been discoyered-the diamond was cele- brated and treasured as the rarest and most valuable of precious stones.
 Accordingly, the Queen of Sheba, next to Solomon in wealth and power and wisdom, certainly must have possessed diamonds, and

 unset diamonds which tradition says once belonged to the Queen of Sheba. Officially, the Collector of the Port is not interested in tradi. lions. He is holding the diamonds as dutiable until he receives satis- factory proof that they belong to the classification of Antiques" which are admitted free of duty.
 The stones were imported from Constantinople and brought to America on the person of Mr. A. An tlkadJian, an Armenian antiquarian and dealer in antiques. Being un- cut-in the modern sense of the term-they possessed no lustre and were passed by the inspectors among other antiques carried by MT. Antikadjian. Later, in Maiden lane 1ewelry shop, where they were of- Tered for sale, they were discovered to be diamonds, though of inferior
 water worth about $65 a carat Sl,2OO for the pair, as they weighed approximately nine karats each.
 The jeweller notified the customs authorities. The diamonds were seized, and then, before he stopped to consider what the effect of his ex- traordinary statement would be, MT. Antikadjian told the newspaper re- porters his Queen of Sheba' story; not because he believed it would have any weight with the customs officers, but by way of emphasizing his claim that the stones were genu- inc antiques.
 He had purchased them, he said, of an Egyptian princess, in whose family they had been handed down as heirlooms from the time of the first of the Pharaohs. The tradition was that they had belonged to the Queen of Sheba, who had worn them in her ears.
 Mention of the Queen of Sheba was enough. The newspaper report CTS, wise in the wiles of diamond "smugglers," paused to hear no more-they had a new Queen of Sheba story!
 After having that story translated for him by his attorney, MT. Anti. kadjian promptly sealed his lips on the subject of traditions concerning my P~ANSN PAOPCits, aid oCI dDOuI h1s task as an expert of proving, simply, that the diamonds were an- tiques.
 Anybody but an expert would find this rather difficult. In the way of inscriptions, carvings or design most antiques proclaim themselves as such. Here were two unset, crudely cut, pear-shaped stones, each pierced through the small end, each about as big as the first joint of an average little finger-that was all
 Nevertheless. when MT. Antikad- jan was examined by Collector Ma. lone he answered with the confi- dence of an expert. Here are essen. tial parts of the examination:

Recent experiments by those who are com petent judges have shown that hens given walnut kernels three or four times a week will lay more eggs than those fed on other kinds of food.
 But like everything else, there is a proper method of using this new highly prized food for laying hens.
 In many of the rural sections walnuts grow in great abundance, and it is not difficult task to gather quite number in the fall. They are easily dried sufficiently and stored for use in the Winter season when fowls have to be housed. Walnut trees grow rapidly, and It VIII not require many years to establish quite a walnut grove, and most places have prit oip tch<

worn them, and given them the place of honor among the jewels that or namented her crown and sceptre.
 That the diamond was highly es- teemed among precious stones by the Hebrews in the earliest times is shown by it's position in the breast plate of the high priest. It's name in Hebrew is "jahalom," and in all English translations of the Bible that word appears as "diamond." The old Jewish doctors identified it as the third in the second row of stones in the breast-plate. The stones were not placed according to the degree of their preciousness, but each was tribal symbol, and that was what established their order on the breast-plate.
 The jewelled setting of the breast-plate is thus described in the thirty-ninth chapter of Exodus:
 And they set in four rows of stones: the first row was a sardius, topaz and a carbuncle: this was the first row.
 And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire and diamond.
 And the third row, figure, an agate, and an amethyst.
 And the fourth row. a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper; they were in- closed in ouches of gold in their in. elosings.
 And the stones were according to the names of the Children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of signet, every one with his name, according to the twelve tribes"
 Thus, practically at the beginning of Jewish history, and long before the era of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, the diamond was known and held high rank among precious stones.
 But owing to it's extreme hardness it had to be used and worn in its natural state-as is indicated in the first mention of it in the literature of the ancient Greeks. About the third century B. c. it appears that the Greeks knew the diamond as

Walnuts as Winter Diet to Make Hens Lay More Eggs

IN URING years in which grains of various kinds were more or less cheap, the
 problem of feeding flock of poultry did not seem like a serious one, and in many instances but little attention was paid to the study of what particular rations were apt to produce the most eggs at time when hens were usually off duty.
 Now that the ordinary grains for poultry are advanced in price until it is a serious problem just what to feed hens to insure the greatest returns in egg production, poultrymen are making every effort to dis cover some food or method of feeding that will bring the desired results.

waste land enough to grow hundreds of bushels of these nuts at little or no cost Also insect pests have not attacked the wal nut as has been the case with hickory and chestnuts
 The proper method of feeding walnut ker- nels to poultry is to have poultry houses pro vided with a scratching shed and upon the noor Of this have several inches of chaff or straw, or even poor quality of grass or hay and weeds so scattered about that the grain ana other solid foods may be thrown among the scratching material where the hens will be busy for hours in working to secure their food
 It is in such material the kernels should be scattered,
