August Barth, for the past three
years street commissioner Off the north
division, went down to defeat at the
meeting of the Common Council on
Monday night when he was caught in
the web Of contending factions ON the
council and led to the slaughter. Bert
Hartl was elected to succeed Barth as
commissioners over the river on the sec
ond formal ballot Of the council. The
defeat of Barth was the one surprise
of the final reorganization meeting of
the council. Joseph Everett was re-
elected as commissioner OF the south
division without serious opposition and
William S. Hall was reelected for the
west side job on the third formal bal
lot Of the council 1t was considered
that Barth was the Zone best bet" in
the list of commissioners and none Of
the aldermen were ready to say just
why he had lost out when the other
two men were retained.
Dir. George e. Thompson was the on
~ bidder for the position of city ply
sician and he was retained in office at
the same salary as last year, three hun
dred dollars a year.
Much Talk - Little Action.
The meeting of the council was of
the old fashioned kind - lots Of talk
and little action Nearly every one of

his shoulder and there was someone
around to knock off every chip.
Without division the council dis
posed of the Broad street channel and
its trimmings for the present year.
The street assessment committee re-
ported that the prices asked for doing
tbs work were out of reason and
recommended that the whole matter be
laid over until next year The motion
for the adoption of the report Of the
committee was passed without even a
call for roll call.
Retrenchment along lines of public
improvements was evidenced further
/. in the decision of the council not to
insist on the paving of any streets
where property owners had made pro-
tests An effort was made to order in
water, sewer and gas stubs on all the
streets which are proposed for paving,
but the matter never reached a vote
and it went over until the next meet
ing of the council by common consent,
Police Officers Ask Fees.
a petition was presented from the
pension board of the police department
asking that the fees earned by officers
In court cases be turned into the pen
sion fund and the matter was placed
on file pending further action. A the
lime the present police salary law was
worked out the members of the coun-
Gil had AN agreement with the police
officers that the demand for fees was
not to be made in the future and it is
probable that the council will not con
sent to any change in this agreement.
Ii the police officers could get all fees
it would make a decidedly large add.

PUREBRED MALES ARE IDEAL
No Excuse for Using Anything but
Boar Of Highest QuaIty-Be Care
ful of His Disposition.

Since purebred males are plentiful
and reasonable in price, there is no
excuse for using anything but pure
bred boar. The purebred male will
transmit his own qualities with greater
certainty than one that is not pure,
and will get pigs of more uniform
quality and excellence; so that it pays
to use purebred boar even for pro-
ducing meat on the farm or for mar
ket.
Before buying it is necessary to have
in mind the ideal type of boar wanted ;
then it is well to buy the nearest
thing to the ideal. or the best that
can be afforded. One should never
let n few extra dollars on the price
stand in the way when u good boar is
found. The fact that boar should
come from n strain which produces
large numbers of pigs should not be
overlooked
II an aged boar is to be selected
the disposition should be noticed, and
one that is vicious or tries to- break
out Of lots and pens should be avoided

FOWLS IN VIGOROUS HEALTH
Bright Red Comb, Clear Eyes and Ap.
pearance Of AIertness Are to Be
Sought For.

The successful experienced poultry
man only needs one glance at your
pen OF chickens to enable him to make
a good estimate as to the health con-
dition of your flock.
A bright red comb, clear eyes and
an appearance Of alertness, Is seldom
seen except when n chicken is enjoy
Ing the best of health. Occasionally
1t is true that hens which are overfat
and in danger Of apopleXy may carry
with them good health certificates
which are not deserved.
When the comb turns from its nat
ural bright red color to purple, or an
even darker shade, the caretaler may
expect ptomaine poisoning or other
form of poisoning. indigestion, ,or liver
trouble and if the comb assumes n
light color, except when the bird is
molting, the poultry man should eX-
pect bowel trouble or tuberculosis.
One of the first things the beginner
should study is the appearance of
health or disease as indicated by the
appearance of the comb, eyes, car
riage md attitude of his birds when
in vigorous health, and when out of
condition.
