Proper Disposition Of Surplus Bird.

Proper Disposition Of Surplus Birds.
When the young chicks are Matched
they should be marked in some way
SO that 1t can be known just what per
or pens they are from If birds from Ger.
tain pens are to be kept for breeding
or other purposes; also to be able to
tell the year in which the birds are
Matched. A good method Of marking
the chicks is to punch a small hole In
the web Of the foot between the toes
with harness punch, using the small
size punch.
1t is advisable to market the old
hens In the summer as soon as the Sec
ond laying season is over, as hens over
two years old rarely lay as many eggs
as they do in their pullet and yearling
seasons. If they have been toe punch
ed 1t will be an easy matter to tell ex-
actly in what year they were Matched
Before sending the old hens, males
and young cockerels to market they
should be confined in a small pen for at
least twoweeks to increase their weight.

CAPTAIN DAVIS SPOKE

CAPTAIN e. G. Davis, OF Boise. ad
dressed a small audience at thu
Court House, Wednesday evening
He Is a candidate for the i1omina.
ton for governor, having announced
It last August, and he..is making 3
tour OF the state at this time to
tell the people the conditions on
which he seeks the nomination.
he says that his observations in
the state house have convinced him
that 30 per cent Of the troubles aris-
ing to confront officials in admins
tration Of public affairs are the re-
suit Of political promises made in
disregard of the spirit of the law
which provides that such Influences
shall not be used to obtain nomina-
lions under our law, and in conse-
quence Of obligations arising from
the use OF money and for time spent
IN securing nominations with the
understanding that appointments or
legislation, or some kind OF favors
shall be given In return, which are
an indirect tax upon the people Of
the state.
Captain Davis says he will make
no promises of reward of any kind.
VIII obey both the letter and the
spirit OF the law so that IL nominat-
ed and elected he will be bound nv
obligations to nobody, and will be |
free to do what he thinks is for the
best interest OF the state. He SAYS
ne Will make his campaign within
the amount Of expenses named by
law as the limit, and when this is
expended he will quit, and that five
days before the primary election hel
VIII publish list Of his fexpendituresI
so people who have had any deal
ings with him can go down the list
and see If every dollar is in. I'll
anything is left out 1t will be known
by somebody and reported. II
One Of the fruitful sources of high ,
.axes, he says, is in electing men to
1fnce' who are incapable of doing Ii
me work, and they appoint deputies /
Q do 1t while they sit and entertain |
'isftors. The captain has served as G
'rivate secretary to a governor and
avs this Is an unnecessary and sup I
rf1uous office and that IL elected he c
I'LL dispense with what he calls the In
deputy governor" and do the work a
imself. He said he could save 20 n
er cent OF, the expense Of that office +,
nd II others would do the same in IL

without saying that matter
should be made right, the SOON
Ter the better. AT the agricul-
tural college alone the state
has nearly a million dollars in
vested in buildings, land and
equipment. The school should
not be open to trouble from le-
gal quibblerS or malcontents.

Sity and the Monmouth nor.

ure being initiated is a timely
and meritoriouS one. 1t should

His first week of work shows
a great area of territory re-
covered and a total of 100000
prisoners taken.
What other allied general
has accomplished so much in a
single week since the battle Of
the Marne? This new advance
into Galicia is, of course, made
Under vastly different circum-
stances from the former Russi-
an advance, when the enemy
was much less powerfully or
ganized on the front.
1t was not expected that
Russia would find the man to
show the allies how to break
the strongly fortified German
lines, but Russia has discovered
him. The man who showed us
how to crush the Confederacy
was found in an obscure retir-
ed subaltern in the then re-
mote west, after the sophisti-
Gated east and the leaders of
high rank had failed.

front all need a BrusilOff.-St.

ONE WEEK UNDER BRUSI.
LOFT

us Gen. Brusiloff, who has
IJ smashed the line of the
central powers in the east,
the leader of pre-eminent ca
pacity for whom the allies have
been waiting for % months?
He happens to be the one
who directs a movement to
which all Russia has made
contributions at heavy sacri-
flee. But the same thing is true
.Of several German generals
who have won distinction in
this war. 1t was true of Gen.
Grant in our war.
Without the tremendous ma
tional effort of many months
past for organization, training,
accumulation of munitions and
expert study of the military
problem, Gen. Brusiloff could
not have done what he did. But
what other general could have
done it with them?
1t is said that conditions
were exceptionally favorable
to his attack, for it was begun
or June 4, a Sunday which the
officers Of the central powers
had devoted to too jovial cele-
brations of the German naval
victory in the North Sea. Any
advantage due to this reason
must, however, have been only
local and temporary, whereas
Gen. Brusiloff has been victor
ious on a line almost as long as
from st. Louis to Chicago, has
penetrated the German front
TO a depth of so miles in pla.
ces, has been averaging in cap
ture Of prisoners from 10000
to $4,000 a day and for good
captured 5000 on
the seventh day.
