Mckinney Examiner; A new

Mrs. Latham guilty OF murder re-
commended suspended sentence.

little too far-the Jury, while act

No It will not encourage crime OF
a similar nature, for the reason that
the people will not long tolerate
such law when It is prostltuted to
such an extent as is evidenced by
the above idiotic decision. II the
woman is guilty Of murder then II
looks as II she ought to have been
compelled to take her punishment.

her later. 1.-THE suspended sentence"

THE PEOPLE AND THE SUPREME

In legal lines are trying to

which is said to be now two years
behind.
A Dallas lawyer suggests that n
slight change in the method OF prac-
tIce would help matters. He says
that In cases carried up from court
Of Civil Appeals, the Supreme Court
cannot go behind the finding OF
facts Of the lower court, but has the
power only to see whether or not
the Court OF Appeals has correctly
applied the law. The Dallas jurist
says that the Supreme Court should
be relieved from wading through
long briefs and should only examine
the application of the law to stat
ed fact and in that way the Judges
could dispose OF twice as much busi-
ness. All the lawyers are agreed
that there ought to be more Judges
but 1t seems that the people didn't
think 30. Now, 1t is this way-many
people are ready to object to any
proposltlo nthat means tho payment
of more salaries, but when public
necessity is presented the people arc
not disposed to be unreasonable Cen

er, the lice begin to multiply. and the
more lice increase, the lesslikely the
| hen is to get rid of them or even to
make an effort along this line. This
condition is then up to the breeder
and unless he takes a hand inthe mat
ter the poor hen stands a poor chance
TO win out and when the little red
mites get to working in large num-
bers it is extremely easy to predict
the ultimate end.
These are some of the conditions
which usually surround the vearling
mems, and they are almost always due
to the neglect of the old birds bv the
breeders for the youngsters.
Remember if you would attain suc-
cess IN the poultry business, it is alb
solutely necessary to give attention to
all OF the details necessary for the
health and comfort of all your birds,
both yearlings and youngsters, and
and neither one should be neglected
for the other, but on the contrary all
should receive their just dues.
Dry insect powders, applied with
thoroughness and regularity. and the
provision of a good dust bath in
every pen, will go a long way to at
least keeping the lice down to a mini
mum. The red mites are a decidedly
different story. 1t takes determined
effort and action on the part of the
breeder to get the better of them and
keep them down.
These do not remain upon the
bodies Of the flows, and it is necessary
to fight them in a different way than
is employed to chase the body lice.
A good liquid lice killer is required.
and this must be applied to every
crack and crevice about the house.
nests, rOOsts and all other fixtures
about the plant, for here the little red
devils lurk during the day, and at
night march upon the hens at roost
and get in their deadly work.
The best time to get after these
parasites is in the early morning, !
when they are full of blood which has |
been sucked from the bodies of the |
fowls over night, as shey are then less
likely to be far from the scene of ac-
ion of the night before than later in |
he day, and are therefore more easily |
reached with the liquid killer.
Spray or paint the inside of the
house regularly with the solution,
making special effort to get it into
'very crack OF hiding place of the
naTauder.

er after finishing the removal OF thl
old building the previous summer
was piled and scattered on the wes
side of the grounds; this should have
been removed by the School Cimmis-
siOners, or on their failure, the teach
er could have seized upon this failure
on their part, to have taught the chill
| dren during the early fall months OF
last year, a lesson in "cleaning-up.
| The boys would have been glad to
/ nave piled and burned the rubbish
while the girls would have been equal
/ ly enthusiastic in helping to have the
grounds made and kept attractive.
One of the new water closets was in
good condition, while the other was
only ordinarily clean, even for a boys
water closet at a rural school. The
chillrens lunh pals were sitting on
the floor in the vestibule, while two
perfectly good dressed boards about
seven feet long were leaning against
the weather boarding at one side of
the school house, and these boards
would have made two shelves for the
dinner buckets; all it lacked was the
enterprise to put them up-and this
the School Commissioners should
have seen to. The side of the build
ing was SCARED from these same
boards, which had been used by the
children as spring boards, and they
were thrown down from their posi-
tions by one of the Commissioners
Screens or iron gratings must be
placed over the windows to protect
them and prevent further defacing of
the school building and also prevent
the children from gaining entrance
to the school room through the win
dOws. Altogether, the inspection of
this new school building was a dis
to the County School
Commission. One trouble has been,
the lack of unity among the School
Commissioners.
