HUNT FOR JUDGE
IN LICENSE CASE
Many Legal Angles Presented
by Charles KroneWitter'S
Injunction Case.

The old question whether the ma
yor of city hes the right to revoke
a liquor LICENSE has been reurrected.
This time. however. there are nub-
Der of different angles.
on July 8. of this year, Charles
Kronewitter was granted a renewal
of a license by the county commits
sioners. He paid $500 for his state
license, and offered Walter Michael
comptroller. $500 10 obtain per-
NIT from the city of Mishawaka.
The city official refused To accept the
money for the permit, without
which Kronewitter cannot operate
his saloon at 314 s. Wills st
Now Kronewitter has applied for
a temporary mandatory Injunction 10
compel the Mishawaka comptroller
to accept the money for permit.
John Kronewitter's license 70 sell
liquors at the same place, was re-
voked last summer by Mayor Ralph
w. Gaylor. He applied for a tempo
rary injunction, which was sustained
by Judge George Ford. When the
hearing on the permanent injunction
came up. the case was venued TO the
circuit court. and Judge Walter A.
Funk held that Mayor Gaylor was
acting within his rights.
Allowed Transfer.
Now on september eth of last year,
the county commissioners allowed
the transfer of John Kronewitter' s
license to Charles Kronewitter. The
license. issued by the commission
ers, 1t is said, expired last June. the
renewal not being made until July
Ord, there being a lapse of a month,
which constitutes the grounds of the
Mishawaka officials refusing the
permit.
Attorneys for the Mishawaka city
officials took a venue from the judge.
BY agreement T. W. Slick was cho-
sen to act as special judge, and when
II was learned that he was about 10
leave the city. Marshall Howell was
selected. The latter declined be-
cause OF the pressure of business
The attorneys at last were trying to
find out IL Judge Harmon, of the
EIkhart superior court, had time
to come to South Bend 10 try the
case

Record of Eighteen Ohio Farm Flocks.
Two years ago the Ohio experiment
station made a study of the profits in
farm poultry. Records of IS typical
sarrA nocks were carefully kept.
These flocks ranged in number from
&c to $40, some were purebreds; others
we're mongrels. They were kept, fed
and tended just as the farmer had been
caring for them before the experiment
station asked him to keep record.
Here are the results of the investiga-
ton. For the sake Of comparison, we
have figured the profit from each flock
on the basis of 100 hens in flock.
The best five focks yielded respect
lively $247, $154, $153, $1O7 and $1O4
per hundred hens, while the poorest
five flocks yielded $67, $66, 1858, $62 and
SIS respectively. In no case was there
loss. The average profit per hundred
hens of the 10 flocks was $S7.
Poultry Profits.
One hundred hens are worth a hun
dred dollars-just about the price of q
good dairy COW. Records of the cow
testing association in Iowa show that
the average dairy COW makes a profit
Of $33. Which would you rather do
milk two or three COWS or take care OF
hundred hens?
Most of us fail to realize that poul.
try is proftable-the wife pays the
grocery bills and every now and then
gets a new piece of furniture or a new
dress with the "chicken money" But
probably not one farmer in a thousand
could tell just how much his chickens
are paying.
You probably have about hundred
hens-that's the average size Of the
farm focks in the United States. How
much profit are they producing? Arr
they above the average or below? Arr
you getting $247 or SIS?
Produce Eggs When Price is High.
Sixty per cent of the eggs are pro
duced in March, April and May. Their
the number drops gradually until only
one per cent is produced in November
Production remains low during Janu
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1916-11-22

Why not take better care OF you,
hens and have them working for you
during the winter instead of keeping
them at a loss during this period?
You can produce winter eggs. Put
your hens in warm, comfortable, we'll
ventilated house, give them nitrogen
Gus food and furnish water, grit and
oyster shell.
OF course, it will be some trouble to
Increase your egg production. Don't
expect results if you go at things spas

letting the rest go.
Fowls need animal protein food.
summer; buttermilk and beef. scrap
make good substitutes in the winter.
This chart gives the results of an
Ontario experiment. Twenty-Five hens
receiving buttermilk in their ration
made $11 profit in eight months; a
similar flock fed beef scrap made $40
profit, while a flock receiving no meat
or milk was kept at a loss of So.
A similar experiment in Indiana
shows that hens fed skim milk or beef
scrap made a profit of 81 per hen an
nually, while those receiving neither
beef scrap or milk were kept at loss
of four cents per hen.
If you feed beef scrap, get good quail.
ity, testing 60 or IS per cent protein.
Be careful not to feed too much.
Few people understand that eggs are
almost as perishable as meat or milk
They belong to the same class of food,
but just because they are inclosed in
hard shell, people think they will
stand almost any kind of treatment.
Government experts estimate a loss
of $45,0O0,OO0 every year from bad
eggs. This loss can be prevented by
better handling and marketing.
Loss From Shrinkage.
Five per cent of the eggs in the
United States are lost through shrink.
age. The shell of an egg is porous. Il
is made this way so the developing
chick can get air during the incubation
period.
Seventy-four per cent of an egg is
water. Whenever an egg is in a tenn
perature above freezing, this water is

evaporating through the shell. The
higher the temperature and the more
circulation of air there is the faster
the evaporation takes place. Eggs
grow stale in warm poultry houses, in
hot kitchens, on the farm or in the
cupboards of the consumer. Egg deal
ers count that three stale eggs are
equal to rotten egg and pay accord
ingly.
Gather your eggs daily and keep
them in cool place. Market them as
often as possible-at least once a
week-better twice week.
100000 Annual Loss.
Fertile eggs cause a great loss-a
loss estimated by the government ex.
perts at $15,0O0,OOO a year.
Two years ago the United States
government experts conducted an ex.
pertinent in Kansas to compare the
loss from fertile and infertile eggs.
How Experiment Was Conducted.
Ten thousand eggs, collected from
different farms, were used in the ex
pertinent. Half were fertile and hall
were infertile, and every egg was alb,
sOlutely fresh when it entered the ex
pertinent.
These eggs were kept on the farm
under ordinary farm conditions. Some
were stored in parlors, some in kitch
ems, some in cellars and some in pan
tries. Some were put in nests, some
under laying hens and some under sit
ting hens. The same number Of fertile
and infertile eggs were always put un
der exactly the same conditions. IN 8
week the eggs were collected and sole
