Otis gave a brief his tory of the crime. which he believed troIlable temper of Shannon, and heightened by excessive drink.
 Attorney Ledwidge, who with At torney Dunn, had been assigned by
 the court to defend the accused, told ir, detail of the work that had been done by the attorneys to get at all the facts in the case. The attorney told of Shannon coming to Boston with his parents when three years of age. of his father being drowned soon thereafter and of his mother dy ing six months afterwards. He was cared for by an older sister, and when II years old he had a series of sick ! little later sustained head trouble by reason of a fall. and these men tai troubles recurred at intervals Shannon is now only 30 years of age and at the time of his arrest was serving his third enlistment in the regular army, his two discharges be- i ing of the very highest standard. The officers at Fort Creole speak of Slam HUI III tIlS IlSHSSI pOooiDlC lCl HIS do l to character and general behavior. Mir Ledwidge told of the killing of young Parkinson. against whom Shannon had no spite, but on the contrary was on the best of terms with him, and l that the killing was all q blank to the accused.
 Sergeant Shannon then made a plea in his own behalf, and related ali his family difficulties, which he attributed to the constant interfer- ence of his mother-inlaw. After tell irg how the pistol happened to be in ! his possession, instead of in the gov ernment store house, purely by acci 1 dent he told of going to the ParHin- mother-in-liaw calling him drunken beast and ordering him from the premises. After that all was blank.
 He did not know that he had shot and killed Parkinson, with whom he had been on the best of terms. Attorney Ledwidge made a strong plea for a light sentence. which could not under the law be less than ten years, but might be for life. He be- Heved there was still hope and a fu- ture for the young soldier.
 Judge Doran sentenced Shannon to l a term of fifteen years in the state prison.

were changed. The only reason
we can see is that the westerner

S0WS SHOULD FkRR0W IN
EARLY SPRING AND FALL
Pigs Can Then Take Advantage Of
Grazing Crops and Avoid Extremes
Of Temperature-Feed of Sow
Needs Careful Regulation.

In Louisiana the breeding of sows
should be so timed that the spring lit
| ,ters will come about the first OF
March and the fall litters about the
first of September At these times OF
the year the small pigs are less liable
TO suffer from the extremes of tempe
rature, and can take advantage of the
grazing crops when in their prime.
/ The care of litter of pigs should
begin before it is farrowed, because
the conditions to which the SOW Is
subjected has much to- 40 with the
strength and vitality of Hhe pigs at
birth. Feeding should be carefully
regulated for about week befaEe and
after farrowing. Overfeeding ~
common fault at this time, especially
OF feeds that are high in carbohy-
crates and fats, such as corn and rice
polish. These should be gradually re-
duced, and entirely eliminated several
days before farrowing time. The feed
should not be of a heating, or energy
producing kind, but rather cooling and
laxative in its effect. Wheat bran is
good feed during this period, and
even this should be withheld for at
least twenty-four hours after farrow-
ing, giving nothing but fresh water
The pigs will not take a great deal |
OF milk the first week, and no effort !
should be made to bring the SOW to a |
flow Of milk until the pigs require 1t. !
Too much milk at first not only causes
scours and digestive disorders in the !
pigs, but often leads to udder trou-
bles in the SOW. The feed should be.
gradually increased but not brought
up to full ration before the pigs are
ten days old. It is not necessary to
begin feeding heavily as soon as the
milk secretion has stopped, even
though the SOW is thin In flesh. Her
system has gone through strenuous
drain, and should have a complete
rest for a time. The nearer she is
kept in good physical condition ON
pasture alone the better it will be for
her. By the time her next CESSATION
period is half spent she will need some
concentrated feed. The demands on
her system during the last half Of the
CESSATION period is greater than dur
ing the first half; and the sows are
few in number that can meet this de-
mand on grazing alone, however good
the grazing crop is. - R. Moist,

BUILD UP PCULT~ FLOCK
BY CAREFUL BREEDING.

There is probably no one practice
which will do so much to destroy the
efficiency of the farm poultry flock al
the old method of indiscriminate
breeding from every bird kept on the
farm. Mass breeding means rapid de
terioration; proper selection means
| improvement.
| Rvery poultry raiser should provide
means for keeping small pen Of Sc.
lected birds separate from the remain.
der of the flock during the breeding
season. Where separate house and
yard is not available, this can be ac-
complished by putting temporary
partition in the roosting house and
providing a wire-enclosed yard out
side.
The prime essential of a good breed
ing bird is vigor and vitality. When
the chicks are first Matched, one will
often notice some which are smaller
than the rest; chicks which do not
dry off, well; chicks which show q
protruding abdomen, or chicks which
show other abnormal characteristics.
Many of the chicks will apparently
overcome these troubles, and they will
be quickly forgotten unless some
means is taken to mark them so they
can be readily identified at any time.
All of these defects point to a weak
constitution. and mean that such
chicks should never be used for breed
ing purposes, no matter how strong
they may look later. Perhaps the SAT-
est way to mark such chicks is by
cutting off one of the middle toes.
Perform this operation with a sharp
knife or pair Of scissors, making the
cut right at one of the toe-joints. In
this way it will cause the bird very
little pain or Inconvenience. The time
to do this is just as soon as any de.
feet Is noticed, such as those mention.
ed, which points to weak vitality.
While the young chicks are grow.
ing there will occasionally be seen a |
bird which is sick, which Is not feath.
ering out properly, which does not
grow as rapidly as others from the |
same hatch, or which shows some 9th. |
er weakness. Just as soon as any of |
these points are noticed, mark that |
If this practice of marking
the weak chicks is rigidly followed,
from time of hatch to maturity, and
even after maturity, one will know
that all birds not having the mark are
those which have never shown indi.
cations of weakened vitality. They
sre the "cream of the flock"
The strongest of the unmarked
birds should then be selected. The
rigorous, healthy bird will show large
bone. comparatively short, stout
lead and beak, bright, full eye, a
irm, red comb, wide back, a full,
ieep breast, a glossy, close-ftting coat
II feathers, and straight legs, set well
part. Discard the birds which do
not show all these points of vigor.
Then, from the remainder, select those
which show suitable color and shape.
Remember, rrSss breeding. means

ion means inprovement-A. f. Rolf.
