vAGRANCY Vs. THE VAGRANT

Portland Telegram: AS the story runs, San Francisco policeman ar rested Q Yagrant-a man appar- entity without visible means of sup port-who had nothing to do but obstruct the streets and indulge in loud and contentious conversation. It was just one I those everyday police episodes of running in vaE." But when this particular vagrant was taken into court he pro duced from his pocket an envelope with ten $500 bills inclOsed; and made other professions of wealth which were not verified, because yerification was not deemed neces- sary. The $5OOO was sufficient de- ferse. The prisoner was discharged perhaps with the apologies of the court. Who knows?
 This case serves to illustrate how far the law stands. upon the form rather than the substance. Suppose this man had lost his $5OOO envel- ope and could not have made good on his ether professions of wealth, the nice question arises: Would he then have been a yagraut? He cer- Jainly would have Leen guilty of condition Of penuileSsneSs and that in effect, if one is noisy in his man uers, unkept in his habits and slov- euly iu his dress constitutes the of teuse Of yagraucy. But the inter estiug point further illustrated by this case is, that the presence of money, concealed among sOiled and ragged vestmeuts, is evidence of responsibility in disguise It pre- pouderates against all other evi dence to the contrary and is con elusive 10 the legal establishment Of innocence.
 This is the formal way with which the legal eye looks at this class ot affairs, and the reason for it is founded in a very shabby prin- ciple, namely, that the man who has money, presumptiyely, has every other desirable thing.
 Going entirely upon the statement o' this case the repi fact appeared that the accused was a genuine vagrant. Vagrancy was his after the manner born; it was not & case of necessity but choice. He pre- ferred to be nuisance, when he could better have been anything else. The possession of money may have put him outside the statutory defini ton Of the offense for which he was arrested, but by nature, or by the of an evil instinct, he was guilty.
 As matter of fact, if it were possibl for the law todo justice in this case, this $5OOU taterdemalion of the public forum. should have been given all the penalty that the | books provide as so often dealt out l to an unfortunate, though honest . man, who is not able to rub dime. together in his impoverished pOck | ct.

\ HUSBAND LIKE DAD

Though she has never seen him, Miss Iris Pearman, of Springfield, O., has sailed from New York for South America, we arc told, to become the wife of Se@or Jose Hermida, of Santa Marta, Colombia, whose Qualifica- lions for the husbandly office con s:st principally ol fdcIul and other rcsemblances 10 the lady's late father. It Is explained that MT pearmau devised his estate of $l,- o00.0O0 or more to his daughter on condition that she marry man resembling himself as closely as possible and that Senor Hermida 'S possession of the Pearnan east of couuteuauce was established only after examination of about 4,0O0 photographs submitted in response to advertisements.
 This yarn comes to hand as If ... timely confirmation of ehe str.ctures yeutured in these col umHs recently on the idiocy of at tempting to regulate the future by Jestameutary command. Tie Van Vert father who nominated a guardian for his motherless chil- d.eu while Ae Was in sound and d5sposing ignorance Of the fact that he was to die by the hand of sid guardian meant well, though p- was no prophet. But what can he sa of this Springfield father va0 aIlegedly attempted to repro Hv,s himself as far as practicable ]" his pothumous son-in-law by ,-tn0ed dictatiOu?
 The most charitable comment r.at suggests itself is that AIr. Hea1mau must have entertained au egssEjous regret that Providence raI not sent him a son and must lave been blessed with d duritul daughter who shows wholly up- a-"essary attachment to his wishes

 It should not be necessary to go To south America to find a man like that The country is more or less fall of conceited fools. But, assuming the New York story 70 be more true than it sounds, most people will hope Miss Pearman, Seuor Hermida and the million will get on more happily together than there is any reason to expect.

animals of the type best suited to- his conditions. He must be good judge of horses, have a clear and well defined idea of the type of horse he is going to breed, and then set out to, produce it.
 There are four distinct classes suit able for production. These are the heavy drafters, carriage or coach horses, roadsters and saddle horses. any of these are always in demand and command high prices. Of these four classes, the heavy draft horse is best suited for Arizona farming. These may be raised on the range or on al- falfa pasture and marketed at a good profit.
 The draft colt can be raised with less risk and less liability to accident than colts of the lighter class. This is because he is less active and slight bruises or blemishes do not seriously detract from the value of the drafter. Furthermore, a draft colt earns his own living after he is two years old and his education can be completed on the farm. Some of the essential points to be considered in selecting draft horses are good feet and legs,. weight exceeding at least 500 pounds, well developed blocky body with good style and action. The feet and legs are of first importance in any horse. A desirable draft animal may be produced by breeding large mares with good size and quality to first class sire of any of the recognized draft breeds. Percheron horses have been proved to be suited to conditions in Arizona, since they have excellent action and large size. The breeder should aim at perfect, heavy draft type and make every effort possible to produce it. In case the colts were lighter in weight than expected they could still be suited to some other classes that would bring less money

About the last of September is the annual worry time for those high priced eggs.

By H. R. WILLIAMS, Arizona Experi-
 ment Station)
 In no other one line of live stock production has there been such lack of study or system as that of horse production. For many years the farm CTS have practiced haphazard meth ods of breeding, feeding, care and management as well as preparation for market. They have bred and reared horses without any regard to their own local demand or the re- quirements of users from a distance
 Horse breeding when judiciously carried on has been profitable busi- ness for American farmers. If horses are bred with a definite object in view, as some special class, one need not be afraid of poor market. How ever, farmers who do not exercise care and business methods in the pro- duction of desirable sorts will un- many misfits on their hands that can not be sold at profit.
 To be a successful horse breeder a man must be thoroughly familiar with the horse market, know the various classes, and set about to produce the animals that are in demand. In the great markets, horses are classed ac- cording to their work. It is impossi- ble to draw hard-and-fast lines be- tween some of the classes, but most of them are fairly we'll defined A horse that is known in one part of the country by one name may be diff ferent from a horse which is referred to by the same name in another part. However, there are certain distinct classes which are given the same name the world over, and it is with these that the farmer should familiar ize himself

NOTES PICKED UP
 IN POULTRY YARD
Little Details Make Difference Between Success and Fail.
 ure With Chickens.

Keep the hens well supplied with water to drink, and see that the chill is taken off it in the cold weather.
 If you have not been in the habit of giving them all they need, you will be surprised at how much they will drink. They should have all they want, but it must be clean and not too cold. If hen gets chilled she will stop laying.
 It is the little details that make the difference between success and failure in poultry raising.
 The bullets that are filling the egg basket their first winter are the ones that delight the farmers heart, and the poultry man who has such a flock is now reaping the reward of his well-managed business.
 Pullets matched in March or April and properly taken care of, should begin laying in November if not be- fore, and continue laying all through the winter, when the price for eggs is highest.
 The egg shells from the eggs used in the kitchen should be dried and fed to the hens. They will help out the supply of lime which the hens must have in some form, to prevent them laying soft shelled eggs.
 Be sure to crush the shells so there will be no danger of teaching the hens to eat eggs.
 The very best of food without a plentiful supply of pure. fresh water will fail to induce the hens to lay.
 Reduce the drinking part of your hens ration and the egg yield will soon be reduced, for water is the principal substance in an egg and 1t cannot be reduced.
 Next to pure air. water is the cheap est thing We can supply our poultry.
 If the mash you feed is given to the fowls warm these cold days, it will be invigorating. but if it becomes cold or frozen before 1t is consumed 1t is very unsuitable food, as the fowls will then be compelled to take consid- erable cold water in the mash. which chills them.
 Don't forget the hens dust bath. They must have it to be healthy and happy.

striving to weigh accurately Mallow's s part In a scrimmage like this. The copra grower assuredly would be the last man to give cigar to a China man. Mallow, rich, was Mallow dis posed of. at least logically; unless in prisal. That might possibly be. A drunken Mallow was capable of much. for all that his knowledge of letters of credit might necessarily be primitive.
 Yet Mallow was no fool. He would scarcely take such a risk for so un- stable and chancely thing as revenge of this order. Craig? He hadn't the courage Strong and muscular as he was, he was the average type of gambler, courageous only when armed with a pack of cards, sitting opposite a fool and his money. But Craig and Mallow together. He slipped off the label. It was worth preserv- ing.
 With an unpleasant laugh he began to get into his clothes. Why not? The
  was positive that the two had been be- hind this assault The belt would have meant a good deal to Craig. There were a thousand Chinese in Singapore who would cut a mans throat for a Straits dollar Either Nal low or Craig had seen him counting the money on shipboard.
 He looked at his watch; quarter after two. If they were not in their rooms he would have good grounds for his suspicious. He stole along the gal lery and down the stairs to the office, just in time to see the two enter. much the worse for drink. Mallow was boisterous, and Craig was sullen. The former began to argue with the night manager, who politely shook his head, Mallow grew insistent. but the night manager refused to break the rules of the hotel. Warrington inferred that Mallow was demanding liquor, and his inference was correct He moved a little closer, still hidden behind the potted palms.
 All right" cried Mallow. We'll go back to town for it"
 I've had enough" declared Craig sullenly. Let's cut out booze and play little hand or two"
 "Fine!" Mallow slapped his thigh as he laughed. Nice bird I'd be for you to pluck. Think of something else. The billiard hall is open"
 Craig shook his head. When Mallow was argumentative it was no time to play billiards.
 "Bah," snarled Mallow. Since you won't drink like man nor play bill lizards. I'm for bed. And just as the fun was beginning!"
 Craig nudged him warningly. Nal low stalked away. and Craig, realizing that the night was done, followed.
 Warrington had seen and heard enough. He was tolerably sure. It might have been out of pure deviltry. so far as Mallow was concerned but Craig had joined in hope of definite profits. A fine pair of rogues!
