Raise Chicks Electrically.

Matching and raising chickens by
electricity is proving a paying expert
ment at Merch's farm. Poole. England,
said to be the largest chicken farm in
the world. During the past six months
over 1000 chicks have been hatchcd
and raised under electric influence. The
incubators are heated electrically. After
the chicks are Matched they are placed
in flats in building surrounded with
insulated wires.
The five-week- old chicks, under this
electric influence, reach the normal
growth of three months under ordinary
conditions. Their food flavor is also
superior. The average loss is less than
six out of 400 in comparison with at
least so per cent of the chickens
Matched under ordinary conditions that
die before maturity. Chickens which
seem too weak to stand when first
Matched, and which would not live
day under the usual methods. develop
into strong, healthy birds under cleo
trical stimulus.

The lIanan Born.

From the Syracuse Iost-Standard
Italy has not been known of late as
fighting nation; but she has realized
her situation with reference to Austria
too clearly to let her fighting power
diminish. Her armies are distinguish
ing themselves: it will be far from sur
prising to see her navy in successful
action very shortly.
Italy suffers in the opinion of Ameri-
cans because of several reasons: One is
the Italian criminal who has been al
lowed to come to this country and
carry on his spectacular career; an
other is that large percentage of
Italians in the United States are doing
our rough work for US and talking III a
foreign tongue.
The Post Standard believes that the
conduct of Italy in this war will reflect
credit upon all Italians and will do a
good deal toward raising the Italian
born American in the esteem of other
Americans.
The names "dago" and guinea" will
probably become obsolete before an
other generation Of Americans rea ches
maturity.

Pioneers.
From the Seattle Times.

From the Seattle Times.
The Washington Pioneer Association, at
this years meeting. finds more than a
hundred real founders of the state in ses-
sion While the fire of youth is gone,
many Of them are hale and hearty, with
promise of years of usefulness before
them.
In this annual gathering there is an
event OF more than ordinary interest
These men and women have done a con-
structive work of stupendous value to the
nation and in the state which bears the
name Washington" they have builded
for themselves a permanent and enduring
monument.
AS is always the case with pioneers,
they are going forward humbly, without
show Of publicity or desire for it, They
have wrought quietly. Their delibera-
tons have almost escaped notice. In par
ticular the rising generation scarcely
knows them-whiie every day reaping the
tremendous benefits of their labors be-
gun more than half a century ago
Yet the greatest reward is in the con-
seriousness of work well done; and that
reward the pioneers, as they yield to the
eXactions of time, are reaping in full
measure.

CAUSES Of MUNITIONS
DELAY UNAVOIDABLE"
Shortage of Gauges, Lack of Trans
portation and Workmen Factors,
Says British Contractor.

LONDON. July 8. $3.50 a.m.-Most of
the causes of delay to the contractors
supplying war munitions were I'M
avoidable. according to "a letter to the
Morning Post from the managing di-
rector of one of the contracting firms.
One difficulty was to obtain thousands
of gauges needed by the sudden multi
plication of the factories producing
munitions, the gauge-making craft be-
ing very limited and powerless to meet
the sudden demand.
Transport delays also caused great
trouble. and it was necessary to obtain
much of the material and machinery
from the United States.
Docks and Railways Congested.
In many instances the voyage from
New York to London occupied sixty in
stead of twenty days. while the British
docks and railways We're so congested
that transit from Liverpool to London
sometimes occupied five weeks.
To these difficulties We're added the
fact that the army in the first months
skilled workmen.
Today. however. most of these causes
of delay have been removed, and. the
writer says, the work will proceed in
ever-increasing measure.

Germans Announce Further
Program of Retaliation
3 Against the French.
OFFICER DRIVEN INSANE
BY TREATMENT, is CHARGE
Berlin Admits England Now Is
Treating Prisoners Fairly, and
Thanks United States.

BERLIN, July I, via London, July S.
Reports of continued unsatisfactory
treatment of German prisoners of war
by the French have resulted in the
German government adopting further
retaliatory measures In an effort to
secure better conditions for them.
The case foremost in public attention
here Is that of the German cavalry
patrol headed by Lieut.. Won Schier-
staedt and Count Strachwitz. who were
caught behind the French lines in the
retirement from the Marine and SEN
fenced to five years in the penitentiary
for appropriating the food on which
they lived during their three weeks of
wandering before they surrendered
Sentenced to Penal Colony.
Lieut.. Won Schierstaedt's sentence
provided that he be transported to the
penal colony in French Guiana. The
members of the patrol despite all ef
forts to change this sentence, are still
confined in the military penitentiary at
Avignon. it is reported, and are treated
the same as French military criminals.
Lieut.. Won Scherstaedt is said to have
become insane under the treatment and
to have been sent to an asylum.
Six French officers today were trans
ferred in retaliation to the military
prison at Spandau. They will be given
the same treatment as the patrol men,
bers until the latter are treated as reg
ular prisoners of war. it is announced.
Other officers Imprisoned.
Fifty other French officers were TAX

IN Fort Zorpdorf near Euestrin in an
effort to force better treatment of fifty
German officers at Fort Entrevaux.

Particularly tragic are maps OF ru-

remaining are shown.
From figures received, 10000 houses
and buildings have been destroyed by
the Germans since they invaded Bel

King Albert is taking the most per
sonal and constant interest in the
work, and M. Helleputte, the Belgian
minister of agriculture and public
works, is in constant attendance at
the committee meetings.
