into permanent law and said Secre-
tary Daniels approved this proposal,
although it was an increase over what
originally had been asked for by the
department.
General Barnett said he had pre-
pared, and Secretary Eaniels would
submit to congress at once legislation
designed to permit marine officers TO
accept service under the Haitien gov
crnment in the constabulary now that
the treaty has been ratified. Fifteen
companies already had been organized
in Haiti, he said, but thirty-iive addi-
tioaal officers for the force were need
ed Enough men had volunteered
from the marine corps, he said, tot
provide all the officers for this duty
in that way.
Tilson Addresses Committee.
Representative Tilson Of the house
military committee addressed the
house today on a feature of the pre-
paredness plans on which he has
dwelt at length in committee hear
ings. Backing up his remarks with
exhibits from various arsenals, he
said that while there were hundreds
of arms and ammunition factories
in operation in this country, none
but government plants were prepared
to produce the weapons and cartridges
needed by the American army.
A bill to provide for the manufac-
ture of special tools and fixtures TO
make the necessary changes in PR
yateIy owned machines has been in
troduced by Mr.. Tilson. He estimated
it would cost from $15,O0O,0OO to $2O,'
100000, but declared that unless such
a step were taken the country could
not supply within a year the guns
and ammunition for single battle.
The senate military committee
agreed tentatively today to amend
the present volunteer act so that
third force, exclusive of the regular
army or the national guard, may be
organized in peace times. 1t is pro-
posed to insert a general provision
in the pending bill under which the
restriction of organization of fedora
volunteers to war time would be re-
hn
widest possible latitude as to ques-
tions of enlistment terms, training
and other details to insure a practical
fest of this method of raising citi'
zen army.
In effect, the proposal is to supply
the authority for a test of the con
tinental army plan advocated by the
president and former Secretary Gar
rison. A provision with the same end
in view is now included in the house
bill and the final judgment on the
plan will be worked out in conference.
Members of the house committee IN
closest touch with its efforts toward
liberalization of the National Guard
said today that while it was proposed
in the bill to go to the limit of con-
stitutional authority in this regard
thev believed a constitutional amend
ment sweeping aside all state juris-
diction would be necessary in the end.
Hope was expressed that agitation
for such an amendment would come
from the guardsmen themselves, once
their new relations with the federal
government were established.

FOR SUCCESS WITH CHICKENS
Mot SO Much Depends on How Many
Are Hatched as Upon What Per-
centaae Are Raised.

Success with chickens depends not
so much on how many are Matched as
upon what percentage is raised. The
cold rains we have had recently found
many early Matched chicks ready prey
An accident rather than acute reason
ing once placed us in possession of
what we consider the very best way
to save the life of a chilled, wet chick
There were so many soaked at one
time that we simply could not wrap
them separately or place them in the
oven. A pan of very warm water on
the range prompted the man of the
house to suggest dipping the chicks as
he had dipped small pigs. For lack Of
anything better, we tried it, dipping
the chicks and wrapping up several to-
gether in flannel cloths. It worked
like magic. The warm water seemed
to affect them much quicker than dry
clothes or moderate heat would have
done. Since then, we've restored
young chicks so far gone we doubted
they had any life left in them.

Portable Nesthouss.

placed under a sheltering shed during
winter and under cool, shady trees in
summer.
They are built on posts 4 feet high
and are IL feet in length and feet
wide. There are two rows of II nests,
one on each side of the door. A single
12-inch plank forms the floor Of the
hall between the nests. Eight-inch
planks form the wall behind the nests.
The roof is made of four 12-inch
planks, two on each side. The ones
just above the rows of nests are hinged
and are opened upward.
Besides tightening the work of mite
fighting, these houses have dark nests,
which all hens like, and are good pro-
lection against nest-robbing dogs A
short ladder at each door is necessary
for the hens to get to the nests"

TO DISCOURAGE SITTING HEN
Roost on Center Shaft-Cuick
Results Are Assured.

"The device consists of a coop made
of lath about two feet square and
swung on a shaft set a little above
the center so that most of the weight
will be below the shaft on the lower
part Of the coop. The ends of the
shaft are set on posts about three feet
above the ground. 1t is impossible for
a hen to sit on the Slated bottom, and
if an attempt is made, the rocking
and tipping Of the coop will soon
make her seek a more stable support,
and the only one within the coop is
the shaft passing through it; and the
most persistent broody hen is usually
glad to roost on it the first night"

N. j., in Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Hippopotaml Can Run.

In spite of it's clumsy build, the hip.
popotamus can trot fast. That is why
he was given the name of river-horse.
The hippo's feet are kept far apart by
the wide body and make paths with a
ridge down the middle, so as to be rec.
ognizable at once. They swim we'll,
but go at their greatest speed when
they can gallop along the bottom in
shallow water. They can stay under
water long time, and when they come
to the surface they send little Jets of
spray from their nostrils. The COW is
devoted to the calf. The young one
stands on her back as the mother
swims.

GOLD IN EASTERN STATES

Not all of the gold of this country

Mountain states. A good-sized lump
of it, more than 10000 ounces, worth
S224,250, is dug out of the mountains

ing and went to work, missing an Ell
dorado but gaining enough profit to
pay well for their daily labor. AS a
result SO gold and placer mines and
"a deep gold mines have been devel-
oped.
The most productive of these are in
North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama.
The last-named state has not done so
well as in some previous years, but
both the others have exceeded the pro-
duction Of 1914. The largest placer
mine is in Rutherford county, North
Carolina, and the most productive
deep mine in Montgomery county, in
the same state.
But the whole story of metal mining
in the East is not told in the quest
for gold. Besides this precious min
eral, silver, copper, lead and zinc have
been produced in quantities sufficient
to make total last year of almost
thirty million dollars. This is nearly
three times the value of the proceed
ing years production, the increase in
gold alone being more than fifty thou
sand dollars.

Bad Apportionment for cities.

st. Louis will receive but $500 out
of the apportionment of s25O.OOO made
'Gy State Auditor Gordon from the

the state with but 8 per cent of the
total apportionment, no matter the
amount of taxes they pay.
The city of st. Louis has total val

no more of the apportionment than
Buchanan county with a total assess
ment of $51,O69, 15s. or ST. Louis coun-
