CHICKENS LUXURY NOW.
Both Dealers and Housewives Mourn
the Good Old Days---Unhatched
Eggs Are Blamed.

Those persons who have felt some
thing missing TO compensate for this
scorching July weather, listen to the
answer good old fried chicken.
Except to the persons who raise
them, or to the persons who have un-
limited greenbaclls. in their marketing
pocketbooks. that dish which has al
ways been as frequent to Annapolitans
as baked beans are TO Bostonians. has
become listed with the luxuries of life.
The housewife who buys them does
so with sense of guilt at her extrav-
agance. For frying chickens are sell :.
ing for 80 cents a pound as compared
with the "a and 25-cent retail price Of
last year. And, what's more. the. re

But there is no light of gloating in

he says. The wholesale price of chick

its cost to him. The reason fer the
high price is the scarcity of the pro-

son is that the seed is so costly this
year that many chicken raisers limit

their number is large and that their

NEW AND DEADLY EXPLOSIVE
Modern Weapon Used in War Is Of
Far Greater Force Than Was
Guncotton.

1t is obvious that the submarine
mine has become much more formi-
dable than it was ten years ago.
During the Russo-Japanese war a
number of vessels on either side were
sunk or disabled by mines, but in
one instance only-that of the battle
ship Petropavlovsk-did the stricken
ship go down Immediately.
The mines used by the Russians
and japanese were filled, as rule,
with wet guncotton. This is, of
course, very potent explosive, but
in many respects, says Tit-Bits, it is
quite outclassed by the compound
used in German mines and known
as trinitrotoluene, but abbreviated to
"T. N. T." in this country and to
'trotyl" in Germany.
"T. N. IT," is an explosive of
comparatively recent invention. 1t
is eminently safe TO handle, and can
not be exploded by flame, but re-
quires to be detonated by means of
mercury illuminate.
A shell, ,torpedo or mine loaded
with 'T. N. H." bursts with great
violence into large fragments.

Heavy Wood Best Fuel.

Equal weights OF dry, nonresinous
wood are said to have practically the
same heat regardless OF species, and
as a consequence 1t can be stated as
general proposition that the heav-
Her the wood the more heat to the
cord. Weight for weight, however,
there is very little difference between
various species; the average heat for
all that have been calculated is 1900
calories, or heat units, per kilogram.
A kilogram of resin win develop 9,4OO
heat units, or about twice the average
fx wood. AS a consequence, resinous
WOODS have a greater heat value per
pound than nonresinous woods, and
this increased value varies, OF course
with the resin content.

OF rich farmers who made their money
out of hogs. They feed the raw grain
to the porker and sell him at the
highest price in the biggest markets
of the country. They have no such
advantages as the Kentucky farmer
has. At our very doors, and at a
much lower cost than corn the Iowa
and Indiana farmer feeds, we have the
feed that will produce the best pork
in the world.
The Farmers Opportunity.
The greatest single industry in Ken
lucky is its distilleries. This industry
pays more taxes for the maintenance
of the State than all other manufac-
turing industries combined Thou

tritious. fat-producing elements are
dumped into the waste neap simply be-
cause Kentucky feeders have not
walked up to their opportunity. A com.
paratively small portion Of this by.
product is dried and shipped to Eu-
rope to be used as dairy feed and for
fattening hogs.
But why ship any OF these dried
grains to Denmark and Holland when
We can use hem here at home up to
the full capacity of every distillery in
the State, thereby increasing the prof.
its of hog-raising and adding many
millions of dollars annually to the
wealth of the farmers of the state.
Cheaper Feed Than Corn.
Farmers should sell the corn they
raise at the high price it usually
brings, and buy. for less money, more
and better feed in the form of distil-
lers' dried grains. BY doing this they
can fatten more hogs at less cost and
sell them in the market for larger
profits. 1t is simple business propo-
sition that should not be overlooked
by the farmer.

The official tests of this feed have
been very satisfactory in every way.
1t has the stamp of approval of the

world. Men from experiment stations
who know all about food values of diff
ferent grains and foods have given it
the highest recommendation.
The richest agricultural States in

production. Iowa, with its vast field
of corn; Illinois, Missouri and Indiana

Makes Prize Winners.
At a great barbecue on the Owens
boro Fair Grounds last May, attended
by 10000 farmers and feeders, there
were on exhibition scores of fine hogs
fattened on distillers' dried grains and
slops, and many cash prizes were
awarded. Officials from the agricul-
tural department of the State and Fed
eral Government we're present and
made addresses on the proper care
and feeding of hogs and the proven
ton of cholera. Specimens of distil-
lers' dried grains and Stops from va
rious distilleries were also on exhibit
ton and their respective food value
were explained by experts.
Fattens Quickly.
One of the greatest advantages in
feeding distillers' dried grain is the
fact that nothing is lost. The distil-
lers remove only the mountaineering
portions of the grain, leaving an aver
age of 40 per cent of protein. which
is the element required to fatten
stock. 1t has been supposed by many
people that the best way to fatten a
hog is to feed hard corn. But corn
in the natural state yields about 10
per cent of protein, as much OF it
passes through the animal undigested
Distillers' dried grains therefore pos
sess about three times the fattening
properties of natural corn. BY feed
ing these dried grains with alfalfa,

Moving Shields Advocated in
Warfare.
Idea Has Been Seriously Put Forth
\ and is Being Considered by Pow
ers at War-Ite Method
Az. Of Operation.

As for a French officers suggestion
OF moving shields, an American has
already invented one and has written
about II to the heads of the belliger-
ent governments. He offers to demon
stratc the efficiency of his device.
The bullet deflector," as he calls
Il, is made of two sheets of steel six
feet wide, eight to ten feet high and
one-quarter-inch thick. The sheets
are jointed at an acute angle, so as
to make a triangular shield, the base
OF which is open. The device, which
weighs 1900 pounds, is mounted on
wheels and can be trundled along by
the ten men 1t can shelter. At suit
able height are holes through which
rifles can be aimed. It has compart-
ments for water and food, and top
to protect its occupants from sun and
rain and shrapnel.
IL can be used, he thinks, to great
advantage in infantry advances when
the supporting artillery has cleared
the way, as the attackers would be
safe from rifle fire until they got close
enough to charge with the bayonet If
they desired. He says that a bullet
striking one of the faces OF the bar
bette would glance off harmlessly, and
that 1t would be impervious to ma
chine-gun fire.
For defense he thinks a cavalry
charge or a bayonet charge would
beat itself to pieces against a wall of
steel. Folding shelves could be put
into it, and they would make hunks
for the crew. On the march II could
