prize Chickens Were High.

A verdict of $4,000 was brought
against an express company for shoo-
ing twenty hens to washington
market and an untimely death. Inc
hens belonged to Frederick Harris
of Hot Springs, S. d., and were all
prize winners.
Cooped together, the hens were
shipped in 1911 from Pennington
NJ J., to New York. This was after
ten of them had taken prizes a
Madison Square garden. They were
White Orpingtons. They reached New
York safely, but were delivered u
a Washington market dealer, wh'
wrung their necks.
All the ribbons and silver cups tn'
hens had won were produced in cour
and experts testified that the hen
were worth $4,000. The jury CAV

INSURE LIVES OF WORKMEN.

Scope of Personal Welfare
Work Ina Factories.

Under an arrangement in effect
with one of the largest and strongest
risk companies the Studebaker Cor
poration mas placed life insurance
for a substantial sum upon each one
OF its employees. This does not in
clude office men, but refers only to
those in the workshops of thG diff
ferent plants The amount of insur-
ance PLACED for each individual, is.
sufficient to provide for sickness and
suneral expenses, and still leave a
comfortable balance for other imme-
date needs of the benefciariess
The insuring company is the Equit-
able Lie Assurance Society of the
! United States, the policy being on
the new group plan recently inaugur-
ated by this risk concern and increas-
es in value with each additional year

ton is the first automobile manufaG-
turer TO afford its employees this pro-

The arrangement dispenses with
the usual physical examination re-

ROSES LURE GOAT FROM CANS
Row Results, Police Called in, and
Anaora Is Ordered to Keep
Off the Lawn.

Atlanta.-Red roses and their ap-
peal to the appetite of an angora
goat have kicked up neighborhood
row which the police have been called
in to arbitrate.
The roses bud on the lawn of John
Cunningham's home, No. 33 Colquitt
avenue. The goat, the property of g
neighbor, is supposed to browse in a
nearby pasture; but, according to Mr.
Cunningham, this is mere supposition
He complains that for the past three
weeks the goat has wandered off the
farm and, lured by crimson buds, has
wrought havoc on the Cunningham
lawn. He declares the goat has de-
veloped an appetite for the flowers
which results in the mastication Of six
or seven roses a day.
Mr.. Cunningham could stand it no
longer. The police station was called
and an officer who Investigated issued
orders that hereafter the goat must
confine his meals to his own grass
and tin cans.

General Macard in Action

because their shagginess is supposed

bots account of Brigadier General
Macard, one of the Revolutions rank

man used to cry: Look here! I'm GO
ing to dross like beast" Then he
stripped off his coat, vest and shirt,
keeping on only his plumed hat, leath-
er breaches and boots, and exposing a
chest almost as shaggy as a bears
In this guise he charged, waving hia
saber and swearing like pagan.''
And, at sight of this giant, half
naked, hairy all over, and in such a
strange outfit, who was hurting him
self at them ard uttering the most
fearful yells, his opponents would bolt
on all sides, scarcely knowing il they
had man to deal with or some

WNTERING BEES
IN THE OPEN AIR
Construction of Summer and
Winter Chaff Hives Over
comes Objections.
fBy Y. G. HERMANA

II the beekeeper tries to winter bees
on the summer stands, in any form of
hive other than a chaff or double
walled hive, it is my opinion that he
will lose more in the value of bees
than the extra expense he would be at
in making chaff hives of some kind.
think that some sort of hive that
could be used for summer advantage
should be used. This thing of having
outside winter cases to set over the
hives is decidedly disadvantage in
many ways.
When winter is over they cannot be
used about the apiary during the sum-
mer to any advantage whatever, but
the beekeeper must have house or
some other place provided for them to
keep them from the weather or they
will be warped and weather-beaten
and will last but few years. Hence,
the construction of summer and win
ter chaff hive certainly overcomes
many Of these objections.
After years of experience with chaff
hives used in connection with saw
dust cushions over the top of the
broodchamber, have become con-
vinced that there is nothing better
along the line of hives for wintering
bees on the summer stands than this
] winter my bees on the summer
stands with very little loss. They have
plenty of good store-plenty of young
bees and properly packed believe
in late brood rearing, so that the hives
will be full of young bees at the be-
ginning of the winter-at least, this is
my plan, and my bees winter nicely.
With too small an entrance in a
damp climate you will be sure to have
moldy combs and more than the proper
amount of dead bees. The trouble be.
comes aggravated in the course of the
winter by the clogging of the entrance
with dead bees.
During heavy storms in winter it
frequently happens that hives are en-
tirely buried in snow. While the snow
is light and porous, air will penetrate
it and reach the entrances of the hives,
but should the snow become crusty or
ice form at the entrance the bees
would be in danger OF suffocation.
1t is well to have all hives facing
southwark, so the sun can shine on
the entrance of the hives and keep
them free from ice.
After a heavy fall of snow we al
ways sweep in front Of the hives, leav.
ing the snow banked around the other
three sides, as it win do no harm
there, but will help keep off prevailing
winds.

During the season when the flock is
confined to a dry ration the feed
should be changed as often as pos
sible. The animals will then eat their
ration with a greater relish and a
more favorable development will re-
suit, writes Sherley Connell of Ohio in
Farm Progress. In the case of preg-
nant ewes the change will be benefi-
cial to the unborn progeny.
1t is reasonable certainty that all
kinds of live stock require a wide
range of digestible ingredients for the
building up and maintaining of a
strong and active system. There is no
one sort of food, although it may be
capable of supplying the needs of the
body, that will keep the system in an
active working condition. 1t is one Of
the Interchangeable laws of nature that
an animal must have variety of food
and if we disobey the law in caring
for our stock we will bring great
losses upon ourselves.
Sheep are light feeders and grass is
their natural and most acceptable
food. Dry feed will sustain life and,
II properly given, promote the taking
on Of flesh, but the sheep do not eat
1t with the relish that they do green
forage. A frequent change of the daily
fare will mean added dollars of profit
to the owner. The entire system will

Southern Soldiers Criticized.
The French soldier from the south
of France is said usually to be less
courageous than his brother from the
north and east. This has been shown
many times, am told, in the battles of
August, September, October and No
vember.
AT Morhange, in the early days of
the war, the French advanced against
a superior force of Germans, unsup-
ported by artillery. There was a com,
plete German victory, and every
French officer was made prisoner or
killed. The remnant of the French
army fled in disorder for SO kilometers.
1t is asserted that the rout was caused
by the failure of the southern soldiers
to stand up to the fight.
In the early part of September the
Germans swarmed out of Metz and
hurled three army corps against the
French force that had been ordered to
protect the crown" of Nancy. The
French troops were composed of two
army corps, the Twentieth and an
other. The Twentieth corps is com.
posed Of soldiers recruited from the
north and east, and other corps of
men from the south, from the Midi"

be kept in such state of activity that
the feed will be utilized in the making
of flesh and wool and there will be
no waste.
With the wide range of roughage
that can be grown upon the farm no
keeper can have a. reasonable excuse
for not supplying his flock with fire.
quent change of feed. 1t is not neces-
sary that several different rations be
compounded and fed alternately, but
rather the feeding of a variety each
day. Any program of rotation is I'M
necessary, but vary the bill of fare
II clover hay is given in the morning,
feed oat straw at noon and corn stover
at night. This may be reversed from
time to time and other things substi-
tuted. Do not feed an abundance Of
any one thing, even though it is rel
ished and greedily consumed by the
flock.
1t is not SO important that the grain
ration be varied, but the wider the
range of grains that go to make it up
the better. Especially is this true when
pregnant ewes are being fed. Grain
rations that are highly nutritious
should be fed with caution, for after
sheep have reached maturity they take
on flesh very easily, and it is not ad-
visable that they carry large amount
of surplus fat.
