BEST TURKEYS FOR BREEDING
Error for Farmer to Feed Stock Fowls With Those intended for the
 Holiday Market.

It is q great mistake for the farmer to feed his stock turkeys with those intended for the holiday markets, yet thing in the world to do. Before the turkeys are made ready for mar ket make choice of the turkeys you expect to keep over for breeding pur- poses and choose your very best. Place these somewhere away from the rest, dition by feeding corn, wheat and oats. the latter, if boiled forming a healthy ration for turkeys, do not seek to

BEST CHICKENS FOR CAPONS
Fowls Matched in May and June Are Favored-Cockerels Are Valu-
 able as Brollers.

Chickens matched in May and June are better for capons, as the earlier cockerels are worth too much as broil- CTS from two to four pounds to capon- ize and hold over until the capon mar ket opens up, which is from about the middle of January until about the middle of March. At the age of eight or nine months capon from larger va rieties of chickens will weigh from seven to twelve pounds. For the last few years live capons have sold from IS to 25 cents per pound and the rooster from 6 to cents per pound
 Other uses may be made of the ca pon, for, with little encouragement, he will mother brood of little chicks, chuck and scratch for them as their real mother would. A rather queer sight to see. He has also been made to sit with good results by some poul- trymen.

LISTEN FOR CACKLE OF HEN
Feed Fowls in Accordance With De- mands of Nature as Propounded
 by Poultry Experts.

Listen for the cackle of your hen. It has a money value to you.
 The winter season Is approaching, when the price of eggs will advance and the cackle will become of even greater significance to you.
 Plan for the cackle, feed the hens in accordance with the demands of nature as propounded by the experts who have spent their lives in the work.
 If the cackle Is not heard with sui fcient frequency ask yourself why. Dig down and study the subject for the more you study the oftener the hen will cackle, and cackling means more eggs and bigger bank account.
 It Is the law of nature that q hen should lay, and cackle. She should lay often and do much cackling, for that, too, is natures law.
 But she will not lay unless she re- ceives proper food and care, and there in lies the wisdom of the man who thinks before he acts.
 Get hold of some good literature. read up on the subject of egg produc- tion, apply the knowledge you thus obtain, and in the end you will learn to experience a keen delight in every cackle of your hens
 Your hen wants to cackle-she will cackle, if you give her a chance. And there's money in the cackle of hen.

onstrated conclusiveiy that the Turn CTS were not poisoned with arsenic, whatever caused their suffefings. None of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning was present.
 All evidence against the girl was freely admitted, but whenever a wit. ness for the defense was on the stand, his evidence was ruled out on one pretext or another and the unfortunate girl was found guilty and sentenced to death. Had she been convicted of making bad dumplings and fined five shillings that would be no cause for complaint but the girl really was hanged for making poor dumplings Nobody outside the courtroom and the Turner family ever believed she was a poisoner.
 Nothing could be more pitiful than the fate of Elizabeth Fenning. Such determined efforts were being made in her behalf by great men and women that 1t seemed almost certain her sen tence would be commuted. But all the efforts failed, and on the morning of July 26, 1915, she was told to pre-. pare herself for translation. She came from her cell wearing a white muslin dress and snowy cap. Her pretty gentle face was untroubled. her eyes undismayed. Hardened criminals and men accustomed to horrible scenes had tears on their cheeks while the execu- tioner bound her hands. A distin- guished citizen of London, who had worked night and day to save her, stepped up to her, sobbing, and said 1:
 "Tell me. Elizabeth, in the name of God, that you are innocent"
 "In the name of God, then, l am innocent" replied the girl, and they were her last words. She died at the

 Next day, and for several days there after crowds collected in the street where the Turner's lived, and Lombard. ed the house with rocks, and it was a long time before any of the Turner's could appear in public with safety Elizabeth's parents had bankrupted themselves trying to secure justice for her and fund was raised for their relief, and the fact that money for that fund came from all over Europe shows how intense was the indignation over the murder of this unfortunate girl.

THE LITTLE WHITE VICTIM.

we TediIy SuOulu De tliduhlui Iudl we live in these enlightened times. when our lives cannot easily be sworn away in the courts, when medical men know something of medicine, and hanging judges" are few and far be- tween. A few weeks ago some merry picnickers in western town refreshed themselves with ice cream, and short ly afterwards they were tying them- selves In sailors knots, and several narrowly escaped death. The learned physicians who were summoned said that ptomaine poisoning was responsi- ble, and nobody was hanged.
 Had that occurred a hundred years arsenic was the cause of the calamity, and the officers of the law would have gone hunting for the poisoner; then woe betide anybody who was known to have grudge against any of the sufferers How many innocent people, accused of poisoning, have been le- gally butchered will never be known until the roll is called up yonder, but their names are legion. Among these sacrifices to medical ignorance, and stupidity. as we'll as to the blood thirsty rapacity of prosecuting law yers, none ever gained the public sym pathy to such degree as did Eliza beth Fenning, who suffered on the tire less British gallows nearly hundred years ago.
 For long time her name was a household word in England. When she was sentenced to death some of the greatest and most famous men in the country exerted themselves in her be- half; poets wrote verses about her; men of high standing circulated peti- dons the plain people held mass meet ings and passed resolutions; but all In vain. The British idea of justice, hundred years ago, was that it Is bet ter to hang hundred innocent people, than to let one guilty person escape.
 Elizabeth Fenning was the daughter of poor but worthy parents, and she grew up with the knowledge that she would have to work for her living. Being a sensible girl, she determined to excel in her humble calling, so she became an excellent cock. At cdd times she studied diligently and gained a general education that was unusual in one of her station. She was pretty, modest and self-respecting, and made good impression everywhere.
 Upon an evil day she accepted portfolio as cook in the family of Rob- ert Gregson Turner. London station CT. Turner's father lived with him. and also two or three clerks. Mrs. Turner was one of those imperious Queen Elizabeth sort of women who were more numerous-thank heaven l- a century ago than they are now. She looked upon her servants and hand- maidens as being a trifie less than hu- man. and always was reading the riot act to them and making their lives a burden. She rebuked Elizabeth for
