COMMISSIONERS DELAY.
BLOCKS TRANSIT WORK
Little Chance of Awarding of
Broad Street Contracts
on April 3

officials Of the Transit Department vr-
tuaily nave come to the conclusion that
unless heavy pressure is brought TO bear
upon the Public Service Commission to end
It's dilatory tactics there Is little possibility
OF having the certificates of public con-
Venence for the various lines of the high
speed system granted in time to award the
three Broad street subway contracts on
April 3, when bids are scheduled to be
opened.
Should the commission continue It's pro-
gram OF Withholding authority to proceed
win the construction work until after that
date, 1t viii mean that six separate con-
| tracts are being held up. Bids for the three
| sections of the subway delivery loop were
opened the first week in February, but in
the absence of authority from the commits
sion the city was unable to award the
| contracts
On April bids will be opened for three
Broad street subway contracts, which. taken
| together, would mean the beginning of
work on nearly mile and half of this
high-speed line. These contracts, together
with the three on the ;oop, will involve an
expenditure of about SIS, ,0O0, 900
The commission will meet in executive
session in Harrisburg today, but IT was
virtually admitted this morning that transit
would not be taken up. A month ago mem
bers of the commission indicated that no
action would be taken until the matter of
lease for the system had been settled
Their position at that time was that they
would not give their approval to any propo-
sition which, i'm view of the many uncer-
a IN ha Iaae -, i.
| tie the citys hands financially for years.
Later, however. another public hearing
was held in this city and subsequent to this
half of the commission made an inspection
tour over virtually the entire system. At
that time is was learned that three Of the
six commissioners favored franting the cer-
| tificates at once and three favored delay
A week ago, after the last executive $685.
| sion of the board, it was said that no fur
| ther action would be taken until Director
Twining either asked for a public hcar
| upon the revised cost estimates submitted
by him showing that the entire system
would not cost 500, 900, 900, or submitted
| additional figures showing the cost to an
| Independent operator to equip and place in
| operation the various lines.
These figures the Director has prepared.
| He had intended to include them in his re-
| port to Mayor Smith and not to submit
| them to the commission before the report
was made public. In the hope, however,
| Of getting some action from the commits
| sion, the Director will forward these fig
| ures to Harrisburg within a day or two
The estimates have not been checked as
| yet by Ford, Bacon & Davis. and IL the
| checking cannot be completed by tomorrow
| night the department will give the COM
| mission the unchecked estimates with an
explanation of why they have not been
| checked and a statement that they are
| substantially correct in the opinion of Direc-
| tor .Twining.

GERMANTOWN SALOON
LICENSE RENEWED
Court Disregards Remonstrance of Su-
w. perintendent of Whosocver
Mission

Judges Martin and Fnletter, sitting today
as the License Court, renewed the license
of John T.. Henry. whose saloon is at 13
East Chelten avenue.
There was emphatic remonstrance
from John Mcintyre. who is superintendent
of the Whosoever Mission. which is only
one block away from Henrys saloon, while
Henry's cause was bolstered up by State
Senator jenkins. who aided counsel for the
defense. and two policemen from the Ger
mantown station house, District Detective
Mcfarland and Street Sergeant Eldridge.
Superintendent Mcintyre said the capac-
ity of his mission was always exhausted
by drunks coming from Henry's saloon.
The court. however, refused to believe
Henry's saloon should be blamed for all
the drunkenness in the neghborhood. His
license was renewed but he had to promise
that he would eliminate the back room and
side entrance. A good deal of the trouble,
it was shown. came from white men drink
ing with negroes and Hegresses.

Proper Handling Of Poultry Would
Largely Increase Food Supply.
! Prepared by United States department Of
''~~ Agricultural
Since poultry reach maturity quickly
and since the quality and productive
ness Of breeding stock, therefore, may
be improved by selection in a relatively
short period, the raising of poultry fur
nishes one of the best opportunities for
Increasing the meat food supply of the
country in an emergency like that now
existing. This, coupled with the ad-
vantages to be gained by the exercise
of greater care in poultry raising, was
the thought in the minds of the fedora!
and state agricultural specialists who
met recently in St. Louis, when they
stated that the poultry products of the
United States could be doubled in a
year. This means that if everybody in
4 position to help did his part $780,
100000 worth Of food would be added
to the country's supply this year:
This includes both meat for the ia
BILE and eggs. Very few farmers prac-
tice a systematic plan of disposing of

Black Minorcas lay as many eggs
as any other Of the Mediterranean
breeds when bred along proper
lines. The weight Of Minorca eggs
averages thirty-two to thirty-siX
ounces per dozen. AS table birds
they are good, the flesh being ten
der and the flavor excellent. The

their fowls after they have ceased to
be productive, although it is we'll
known that fowls of the heavier breeds.
such as the Plymouth Rocks, cease to
produce profitable number of eggs at
the end of their second laying year and
that this holds true of the lighter
breeds, such as the Leghorns, at the
end Of their third laying year. Con-
sequently if efforts were made to dis
pose of all females when their best lay
ing days were over large quantity of
poultry meat would be placed on the
market. All poorly developed chick
ems should likewise be culled out and
used at meat. This way Of disposing
Of improbable fowls would allow the
farmer to feed his grain to younger
and more productive fowls.
Caponizing the cockerels that are not
intended for breeding purposes will not
only increase their size, but will place
a more desirable poultry meat on the
market Another practice that should
be adopted more widely is that of fat
tening all chickens that are to be mar.
keted before they leave the farm. This
can be done easily by combining the
birds for a week or ten days and feed.
ing them a good fattening ration. They
will come to market then in better con.
dition, and the farmer will receive q
profit for their added weight.
