fed horses will vary so much in their
requirements that 1T Is difficult to
name any definite quantity which 4
horse should have as his daily ration.
1t should be regulated by the man
feeding the horse, and should be gov.
-erned by the capacity and needs Of
the horse. A stallion should not be
given more than he will clean up with
in half an hour after feeding. Always
leave him little hungry. Do not over
feed on hay. as it is not necessary to
crowd the horse full of hay all the
time. Do not stuff his manger full Of

fresh. clean water. During the hot
weather the horse should be watered
quite frequently. Overlooking and lit
tie or no exercise tends to cause swol-
len legs, scratches, grease; a wet
stall causes thrush and canker.
When you have done your part SO
far as feeding is concerned. remem-
her that the horse needs exercise.
If you have paddock in which he can
run, SO much the better If there is
no other way to furnish exercise, the
horse should be walked. He must
have exercise If you expect results
from him. A horse that is confined ie
not very sure foal-getter. The very
best exercise for q stallion is to work
him daily at some light work If ev
cry stallion received a moderate
amount Of exercise, the number o
foals would increase from Is to II
per cent. Keep him In a we'll lighted
stable, and don't have him alone away
from the other horses.
Another thing some people forget is
grooming. Frequent and thorough
grooming is very essential to Keep the
stallion comfortable and the skin In
good healthy condition.

WOULD BAR ALCOHOLICS
FROM UNITED STATES

An examination TO determine wheth-
er foreigners coming into the United
States are slaves OF alcohol, would be
much more valuable than the literacy
test embodied in the immigration bill
just passed by congress, according to
Albert Edward Wiggam, efficiency ex-
pert, who addressed an audience OF
700 men in the Y. NJ. c. A. auditorium,
Sunday afternoon.
The dangers OF increasing the num-
ber OF men in the United States ad-
dicted to the use OF alcoholic bever-
ages was referred to by Mr.. Wiggam.
after he had touched upon the problem
of eugenics.
"Eugenics does not remove the joys
of romance from matrimony," he said.
This has been proved by the success
OF the law in Wisconsin, which de-
mands certificates of good health
from couples who wish to wed. Prac.
tical eugenics Is a means OF bettering
our race
81 do not believe an educational
test, such as is prescribed In the new
immigration law, can seriously affect
the character OF the people OF today,
and those of years TO come. EdNa-
ton, or lack OF IL, does not determine
the inborn characteristics OF human
beings.
alcohol is a far greater factor in
determining the health and character
or all people. Descendants OF alcohol.
les are heavier burden upon the pub
lie than those whose parents Are
merely uneducated. Future genera
tions OF America cannot be better
guarded than by barring alcoholics

That Detroit Is behind other indus

"Housing reform does not mean

investment with good profit not

pie return on capital"
The attitude OF landlords was given
by Mrs. Won Wagner as one OF the
reasons why Detroit Is slow TO re-

clared that many old residences are
sadly overcrowded. and that no at

EXECUTION OF
OF LEO NJ. FRANK WILL
BE LEGAL MURDER
Continued from Page one.)

deliberately betrayed her most sacred
trust and has attacked one OF her own
citizens with a vengeance OF q blood
thirsty beast.
Following is a brief narrative OF this
case, which Is unique In all the an
nails of American Justice.
Young Leo NJ. Frank was superin-
tendent and part owner OF the Ma
tlonal pencil factory In Atlanta. He
was born in Brooklyn, n. Y, educated
In the schools there, and later was
graduated at Cornell university. His
residence In Atlanta extended over
only six years. during which time he
had married and had established him
self among his business associates as
Ia thorough going, intelligent, reputa-
bic young man He Is now about 80
years old.
In the metal room OF the National
pencil factory a black-haired, dimple-
checked. strikingly pretty girl OF IA
years, Mary Phagan by name, oper-
ated one OF the machines.
AT 80 on the morning OF Sunday,
April %, 1918, Newt Lee. watchman
in the pencil factory building, was
making his regular rounds. He crop
cd his way through the basement with
the aid OF the flame OF small gas
Jet. Presently he stumbled upon
something that caused him to leap
back in horror. He bent down and
found the crumpled up body OF girl.
II was Mary Phagan.
The police came They straight
ened out the body The girls cloth
Ing was badly torn and part OF her
body was exposed A blood clot COW
cred hideous cash on her head.
There were numerous wounds that
might have been inflicted with a pen
knife on her body
This was the chance for the police
10 make good in the eyes Of the peo-
pie
AZ about this time Atlanta was
thoroughly aroused by the perpetra-
tion OF three revolving crimes against
women-the elimination OF n series OF
over a dozen homicides within year
in which the police had failed to at
tach the guilt I'm any one case.
The mayor declared that this was
the, day OF reckoning for the police
and that out they would go II the
murderer was not ferreted out and eX;
hanged Mobs swarmed
tile streets discussing the case.
Jim Conlev. shiftless Negro
who was given 20 desultorv employ-
ment about tho factory. was found the
next day az the factory I'm the dues-

When cross.eyamined. Conley ac-
eused Frank of the crime.
Conley's testimony was, In effect

Frank was given TO immoral prac-
tices and he bad let Conlev know that
ho was after Mary Phagan Frank
called him into his confidence on the
day preceding the crime and told the
