SCHOOL TEACHER
SOLVES QUESTION
OF How To Make Hens
lay The Winter
Season

Marquette, Mich, School teach
ers are always starting something
new Perhaps that is why they are
school teachers. One school teach.
er who lives in the upper peninsula
Of Michigan deserves to be thanked
BY the lnmbermen for thekpossible
increased market for lumber that
he has opened up by The applica-
ton Of the silo to the holding of
green food for chickens, This school
teacher 10 q farm journal came
across an account Of the food value
Of silaee for cows, when the idea Of
building q silo to provide green food
for chickens in the winter time
flashed across his mind, He at
once built q silo three and one half
feet In diameter and eight feet high,
Pacing 1t three and one half feet ins
the ground. AS is known by any.
one who has had anything to do
with chickens, nothing else makes
them lay so well in the winter time
as ereen food. Consequently the
chicken silo expert stored the silo,
with avn clippings and sweet corn
|cut steen, Last winter the chick
ems were fed on this ensilase end as
q consequence laid q very satisiac-
tory number Of eggs.
H'the lumbermen will eet out and
help this movement alOne no doubt
| it will be possible to develop a mar.
ket for q considerable amount Of
short lumber that's now difficult Of
|sale, It is not necessary thata silo
be round. it may be any shape, pro.
|vided it is air tight. When the
number Of people that raise chick
lens are considered it is easy to see
that the use Of a silo for storing
green chicken food will call for the
utilization Of considerable amounts
lof lumber yearly.

First Thought of the
East Auburn Hatchery

Alonzo ]. Whitman. a retired teach
er, and a native of East Auburn, Me-,
now residing at Melrose, Mass. was a
caller at the Fish and Game depart
ment Wednesday, Aug. %. It appears
from conversation with Mr.. Whitman
that he was the man who first con-
ceived the idea of establishing a fish
hatchery at East Auburn, and was in
strumental in forming the association,
being one of the charter members. Mr..
Whitman spoke very interestingly of
conditions now existing at Lake Au-
burn compared with. those when ne
first became interested in the propaga-
ton Of fish there. He was close
friend of the late Henry o. Stanley.
who became much interested in the
work Of the private hatchery there.
Mr.. Whitman stated that he had told
Mr.. Stanley many times Of the large
number Of trout which he had seen
during the spawning season in Town
send brook, and finally, shortly before
the association was organized, he took
Mr.. Stanley to this brook during the
spawning season. at which time he
states from 500 to 500 very large trout
were seen in the brook
The first plot Of land was secured on
which to locate the hatchery through
Mr.. Whitman's efforts

The latest ruse that has been sprung
on Water street for the purpose of get
ting a soothing potion for parched
threats was that which was launched
Yesterday morning by a Togus Veter-
an at a clerk in one Of the city drug
stores. What the man wanted was
pint of brandy with which to battle
his back, which he claimed was awful
lame, and by way OF explanation he
said that he was Juggling a pan or
meat the day before, when he slipped;
that in order to save himself he threw
the pan Of meat over his head, but
that as he did so his feet slipped
from under him and he fell fiat on
his back: that the doctors at the Home
treated him but without giving him
much relief, and becoming worried
about his injuries he decided to take
the matter into his own hands, and so
came to Augusta for the brandy AS
might be expected he did not get any
brandy at the drug store and was
compelled to seek elsewhere for 1T.
But 1t was noticed that his back did
not appear to be half so lame when he
left the store as 1t was when he en-
tered.

The executive officers Of the depart
ments Of health of Maine, Massachu-
sets, New Hampshire, and Rhode Is
land, and the city of Boston on We'd
nesday. Aug. %. held a meeting at the
State House in Boston for the purpose
Of arranging for travel from state to
state with the least possible formal
ity and annoyance. After some discus
sion and after statements regarding the
quarantine and other preventive
measures which are carried out by the
local boards Of health in those states
whose representatives were comforting,
in view also Of the small number of
places in which infantile paralysis has
appeared in these states. it was de-
cided that there should be no restric-
ton in the freedom of travel from
one state to another, whether the
travellers are children or adults, so
long as they do not come from infect
ed premises.
But, for the protection of the pub
lie, and to save inconvenience to trav-
elers going from these states to other
points where certificates are required,
the local boards of health of these
states are authorized by their state
boards to issue uniform certificates of
travel to persons coming from nom
infected premises. A form of certificate
to be used in a.ll of these states and in
such other nearby states as wish to
use it was adopted at this meeting.
