HtHt VI blllS lHdl were unfair To UH6
state. This was resented in speech
by Senator Beidleman, of Dauphin, and
the bill passed and was sent to the Gov
ernor.
Appropriation Is Insufficient
'This bill, - said the Governor in
applying the AK, "purports to adjust
and settle and pay certain claims
against the Commonwealth on a basis
there in fixed. The bill makes an ap-
preparation of a definite sum with
which to conclude this transaction I
am informed by the Auditor General
that these claims, if paid on the basis
directed in this bill, will aggregate the
sum of $91, 1906.
GAS only the sum of $46,040.S0 is
in this bill appropriated for that pur
pose the payment directed by this bill
is incapable Of accomplishment In
other words the Auditor General is di-
rected by this bill to perform an i'm
possibility.
''The fact of this discrepancy be-
tween the amount required to pay these
claims and the amount herein appro
priated appears to have arisen because
of misunderstanding between the
claimants and the statements given by
the Office of the Auditor General as to
the amount required to pay these
claims. Each party in interest appears
TO have acted in good faith. The one
had in mind the amount required to
settle the claims for 1913 and 1914
The other had in mind the amount re-
quired to settle these claims for 1912
1914, as the provisions of this bill di-
rect.
"While | do not in any manner in
tend to approve or interfere with the
method of adjustment and payment of
claims under the jurisdiction of the
Department of the Auditor General,
neither do l intend by my disapproval
of this bill to be understood as having
disapproved these claims. In other
words, | have no intention of being in
any way judged as having given any
opinion concerning them. BY submis-
sion of these claims at once to the
Board of Public Accounts the end de-
sired by the claimants may be speedily
attained. For these reasons this bill is
not approved. -
Two other Bills Get the AK
The bill validating certain sales of
real estate heretofore made by guard
ians, administrators and executors by
decree of orphans court, was vetoed.
The Governor thinks it is defective
because it attempts to validate sales
made under decree of orphans court
regardless of the fact that that court
may not have had jurisdiction over the
matter. 1t is questionable whether the
Legislature could validate such sales,
he holds
The joint resolution authorizing the
printing and binding of the report of
the commission to consider the revision
and amendment of the penal laws of
Pennsylvania was vetoed because the
measure does not define any limit of
cost of publication.
The two bills approved by the Cover
nor are as follows: a.
Granting to boroughs and incorpor-
ated towns the right of eminent do
main to acquire property for municipal
purposes.
Gonfrmatory of the conveyance of
real estate.

Too Many Growers
Raise Poor Chickens
Says Poultry Expert

At a conservative estimate, there
poultry keepers in the United States
today that keep and raise chickens
of the mongrel sort. With these
chicken is a chicken only, one as good
as the other, and none better than
the rest. Year by year they are bred
and inbred with now and then
swap" Of roosters. made usually for
generations with the same neighbor
for new blood 81 and with the re-
suit that the average for the Great
American Hen" is about three pounds
in weight and her product averages
seventy eggs per hen per year, and
all this in 1915. .f,
When. we consider this condition
along with the possibilities that stan
dard poultry breeding offers, we can
we'll ask, What Is to be done!" 1t
Is evident that the majority Of people
who keep poultry don't consider the
improvement of their poultry the
same as they do of other stock. The
average farmer is well versed in the
different breeds Of horses, cattle,
sheep and hogs, and il not to the
extent of breeding full bloods" he
breeds a high-grade stock. finding in
them profitable results.
Now if we can only get him prop
erly interested in his poultry, to in
vestigate the special values of stand
ard-bred varieties, he will find he has
overlooked the best paying branch of
live stock breeding. Poultry, wheth-
err bred for fancy or for practical
commercial purposes, offers an unlim-
tied field to the breeder, and the
higher quality the stock, the greater
are the opportunities.
That the best results for all .pur-
poses are obtained by high-grade stan
dard breeding has been cOnclusively
proven. Similarity in type, size, col
or, ETC., warrants the best prices for
market poultry, while such types bred
to standard requirements are the only
ones to rely upon for regular and
consistent egg production, which re-
productive qualities.
