The steamer City of Bremen; of Dub

marine off Wolfrack, in the English
Channel, about 10 miles south of
Lands End, Cornwall. Four members
of the crew of the steamer were
drowned. Twelve survivors have ar
rived in Penzance. A Reuter- dispatch
from Stockholm says the German

mine in the Baltic and sunk, and that
% members of her crew were drown
ed. The Crete Hemsoth was a vessel
of 1,554 tons. She was engaged in
traffic between Sweden and Germany.

POULTRY FREE FROM VERMIN
Most Difficult and Trying Problem Is
to Keep Plant Free From Lice
Proper Procedure.

One of the most difficult and try
ing problems which the poultry keep
er has to meet is that of keeping his
poultry houses and stock reasonably
free from lice, mites and other exter-
nal parasites. There are many pro-
prietary preparations on the market
designed to accomplish this end in
one way or another. Most of these
preparations are, in proportion to
their efficiency, very expensive.
In keeping a poultry plant free
from lice there are two points of at
tack: One, the birds themselves; the
other, the houses, nest boxes, roost-
ing boards, etc. For the birds them
selves experience has shown that
the best way to get rid of the lice
is by the use of busting powder to
be worked into the feathers. In u.s.
ing any kind of lice powder on poul-
try, it should always be remembered
that a single application of powder
is not sufficient. When there are lice
present on a bird there are always
unmatched eggs of lice ("nits'O pres
ent too. The proper procedure is to
follow up a first application of pow
der with a second at an interval of
four days to a week. If the birds are
badly infested at the beginning II
may be necessary to make third ap.
plication. To clean the cracks and
crevices of the woodwork of houses
and nests of lice and vermin, a liquid
spray or paint is probably the most
desirable form of application.
When the pullets are ready to &c
into the laying houses they should be
free from lice. The laying houses
should be given thorough cleaning
They should be first scraped, secured
and washed out with water thrown
on the walls and floor with as much
pressure as possible from a hose
They are then given two thorough
sprayings, with an interval of severa
days intervening, with solution o.
cresol. Then roosting boards, nests
floors and walls to a height of abou
five feet are thoroughly sprayed witt
the lice paint (kerosene oil and crude
carbolic acid described above). Final
ly, any yearlings, or older birds
whether male or female, which are t.
be kept over for the next years work
are given two or three successiV,
dustings, at intervals Of several day
to a week between each application
with the lice powder described above
before they are put into the cleane,
| houses.

mer Chief Justice of the Appellate
Court Ed c. ORear have accepted the
invitation of N. A. Palmer, of Louis

vote on this question.

Special Frankfort Correspondence

Especial Frankfort CorresDondence)
Frankfort.-With fully 1000 dele
gates in attendance, the governors
conference settled down to the busi-
ness of organizing the Dixie Highway
association. 1t is the prevailing opin-
ion that no definite route will be map
ped out. At caucus of governors and
other leaders in the movement it was
decided to make a move to have the
convention adopt the plan of having
the governor of each state, through
which the Dixie highway is to pass,
appoint a commission of two compe-
tent men, who will hear the various
local contentious and employ engi-
neers to ascertain the most feasible
and practicable routes, these commits
sioners to report their findings at
future meeting of the highway asso-
citation. With the exception of Ten
nessee, Kentucky had the greatest
number of delegates present, owing to
the entrance of Lexington into the
fight to have the highway routed that
way and the strenuous opposition of
Louisville and her allies.

ORGANIZE JAP ARMY A FAILURE.

Tokyo.-The project to organize and
send a Japanese volunteer army to
Europe has been abandoned. The pro-
moters explain that they failed to get
the governmental sanction, which was
judged necessary. The police request
ed the promoters to discontinue the
movement on the ground that it was
harmful to public peace and order.
The promoters, however, induced the
home minister to withdraw the police
order, and sought to enlist the support
OF Count Okuma, the premier. Ac-
cording to the promoters the premier
replied that he did not believe the prof.
ect would harm Japan's diplomatic
dealings. However, he considered the
approval of the army necessary.

Vessels Continue to Sweep Floor of
Sea in Effort to Locate Missing
"a at Honolulu.

Honolulu. March 30.-VesseIs which
have been sweeping the waters near
the entrance to Honolulu harbor since
early morning in the search for the
missing submarine F-4 have met with
no success.
Despite the repeated failures. na-
val officers are firm in the belief
that the wrecked diver is submerged
near the harbor entrance. They base
this theory on the recovery of piece
of brasswork brought to the surface.
which has been positively identified
as belonging to the F-4. on the re-
ports of fuel oil seen on the surface
and on the stream of air bubbles
which occasionally came to the sur
face.

Prosperity Is Seen.

J. w. Turner, a well-known Paints
vile banker, states that it is the gen.
eral belief among the coal operators
o: Eastern Kentucky that there will be
big demand during the coming sum-
mer for the products of East Kentucky
mines. This is almost sure to be true,
said Mr.. Turner, when the lake trade
opens. Already many orders have
been placed, and it is expected that
1t will devolve upon the Kentucky coal
field to furnish large part of the i'm
mense quantity of coal this trade al
ways commands.

nance and the matter is under consid-
Grafton.

in letter to Frankfort, meets the pro-
test of Clark and Madison county peo-
pie to the route. They protested that
Boone in his pilgrimage to Kentucky
went into Madison county. Mr.. Maret
said the Boone Way must not be con-
fused with the Boone Trail from North
Carolina to Boonesboro on which the
National D. A. r. is working, although
he thinks the trail will follow the
Boone Way from Cumberland Gap
through Bell, Knox, Laurel and Rock
castle to Crab Orchard. From there
