PRODUCING EGGS IN WINTER
Keep Before Hens Constant Supply Of
High Protein Meat Scrap, Grit
and Fresh Water.

Keep before the hens that you are
using for winter egg production, con
slant supply of high protein meat
scrap, complete grit, crushed oyster
shell. and supply fresh, clean water
abundantly and regularly, and see 20
1t that the water does not become
frozen in cold weather, as there has
been no invention forthcoming from
our geniuses in this line Of industry
which will provide the chicken with
an icepick.
Animal food is extremely essential
in securing heavy winter egg yield,
and as a rule, this can best be sup
piled in the form of meat scrap, as it
it the most economical and convenient
form obtainable.
Fowls greatly prefer green-cut bone,
and if it is practical we should re-
spect our feathered friends tastes as
near as possible.

The suggestion that McCreary
county be abolished by the coming
legislature is meeting with much
favor. This county was first created
in 1906 and called Thorne but Gov.
Beckham wisely vetoed the bill. per-
haps realizing what has come to
pass, that the new county would
prove a thorn ia the side of Kentuc.
Ky. Letter they put it over our pres
ent good-natured Governor by NAM
ing the county for him. 1t took
several elections to decide which
mountain village would be the coun-
tyseat and after it was all over the
so-caled county had only 1900 voters,
about 200 of them Democrats. Fol-
lowing the recent election. the Re-
publican county leaders, including
some of the officers, we're caught
padding the election returns for
Morrow. These worthless should be
punished and the territory of this
pauper county returned to the coun-
ties it was token from.

A pullet does not ordinarily possess
reproductive organs sufficiently well
developed to produce such an egg.
Therefore a pullet does not produce
as good Matching eggs and is not as
desirable for breeding purposes as is
the yearling hen. The pullet must
necessarily utilize some of her ener-
gies in further growth and develop
ment. After attaining her full size,
she still has to fill out and mature, as
well as strengthen her laying organs
through use.
Among the Mediterranean class of
fowls, such as the Leghorn and Minor
ca, the males seem to develop sexually
more rapidly than the females. Well
developed Mediterranean cockerels are
therefore very often used as breeders
when mated with yearling hens. The
ideal mating, however, for breeding
purposes, is that of vigorous yearling
cocks with well-deyeloped yearline
hens.

CONVICT ATTACKS LEO FRANK
Noted Georgia Prisoner Cut Perhaps
Fatally While He Slept at
the State Farm.

Milledgeyille. Ca. July 19.-Leo NJ.
Frank lay in the Georgia state prison
hospital tonight with what attendants
said was fighting chance for re-
covery- Physicians had succeeded in
stopping the flow of blood from a jag
sed wound in his throat made with a
butcher knife in the hands of William
Green. a fellow convict, also serving
a life term for murder. The blow was
struck as Frank slept in his bunk in a
dormitory early this morning.
1t was announced shortly before
midnight that Franks temperature
was 80, his pulse good. and that he
was in no immediate danger
An investigation of the attack prob
ably will be considered by the Geor-
gia prison commission. the same body
that refused to recommend that
Franks death sentence for the muir
der of Mary Phagan be commuted to
life Imprisonment. Reports from At
lanta were that Governor Harris in
timated he would start such an
investigation to ascertain if Green
acted entirely of his own volition-
Green said today when taken from
solitary confinement long enough to
be questioned. that he planned the
attack alone and that no one knew
what he intended to do. He was not
communicative today and gave as his
only excuse that 'he thought it
should be done" He said, however,
he regretted his act.
Among prisoners who rushed to
Franks aid were two physicians, one
of whom also was serving a life term
for murder They gave first aid and
treated the wounded man until DR..
Guy Compton, the prison physician,
was summoned from his home. half
mile away. The three men took
twenty-five stitches in Franks neck.
DR.. Ii. J. Rosenberg, the Frank family
physician. came from Atlanta with
nurses. He said that while the pa
TENTS condition was precarious he
had a chance for life
Mrs. Frank was in Milledgeville at
the home of J. NJ. Burns.
She was not told of the attack until
after the physicians had finished their
work. She became hysterical but
later was Gained and was taken to the
prison hospital.
The cut extends from the front of
the neck around the left side to almost
the middle of the back of the neck.
The jugular vein is partly severed
The physicians greatest fear was
that some of the stitches might slip,
causing more loss of blood.

THE LAST WORD TO GERMANY
United States viii Consider Further
Loss of Americans by Submarines
Unfriendly Act.

Washington. July 22.-The United
States has decided to inform Germany
that further loss of American lives as
the result of German submarine war
fare in contravention of the principles
of international law will be regarded
as an ''unfriendly act"
The discussion of principles is vir-
tually ended. The American govern
ment will now warn Germany of the
Interpretation it will place On future
transgressions of American rights.
In the new note the United States
assumes that Germany already has ad-
mitted the principle that passengers
must be removed to a place of safety
before destroying an unresisting mer-
chairman as a prize.
Taking the position, therefore, that
the two governments are agreed in
principle. the United States views it
as incumbent upon Germany to make
its submarine practice conform with
the accepted principles of information
al law. Any deviation in actual prac-
tice resulting in the loss of American
lives. it is than pointed out. will be
viewed as an unfriendly act

pany denied emphatically that any of

that they had decided to remain.
SUbcontractors, on the other hand.
admitted that all of-their machinists
had walked out. These included the
Gaynor Manufacturing Company, max
ing bullets for the armies of the AL
lies, and the Columbia Nut and Bolt
Company. These concerns employ be-
tween them less than two hundred

grew hot, they were ordered. for their
