About 1872 the first Langshans were sent
from northern China to the late Major
Croad of England, by one of his rela-
tives. The major and his family developed
and exploited the breed until they came
to be known as Croad Langshans, and
as such are spoken of by many today.
Historians of this breed have discovered
that it has always been native and pecu
liar to the Langshan district of China.
There they are found in their purity,
any many importations of excellent birds
have been made both to England and
America. There are three varieties of
Langshans recognized as pure, viz: black,
white and notified. We mention the black
as the original simply because it was
brought to our attention and cultivated
several years before any other color was
known or considered by the English
speaking races. Since their introduction

Following the protest abroad about the
action of the German authorities in de-

where men of military age are kept I'M

large numbers of so-called emigrants,
men and women live without guard and
busy themselves chiefly with agricultural
occupations.
With one exception-that a conscript

the fiery red feathering of the Rhode

SAVINGS
TO BUILD HOMES
OF LABOR URGES
CONGRESS TO EXTEND USE
or DEPOSITS

tBy Associated Press.D
BALTIMORE, Nov. 20.--The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor today adopt
ed resolutions to urge congress to
legislate to allow money deposited in
the postal savings banks to be loaned
to municipalities for the purpose of
building model homes for citizens,
with the alternative suggestion that
the government establish system of
credits so people may borrow for a
long term at low rate of interest to
build homes.
The federation unanimously ac
cepted recommendation that any
injunction dealing with the relation
ships of employer and employees
based on a dictum that labor il
property, be wholly and absolutel,
disrearded, regardless of conse
quences.
| The recommendation was made il
connection with report on the ac
! tion of the Massachusetts supreme
court deciding that the antitrust an,
| Injunction writs are unconstitutional
classifying labor as property.
