IN MANY FIGHTS
Moonlight Schools and Industrial De- veIopment Doing Much to Stamp Out Feuds-Locomotive Whis-
 tie DispIaces Rifle Report.

Jackson, Ky.-Another Kentucky fuedist has died "with his boots on." Nose Feltner, known in every house killed by United States Marshal George Sizemore while resisting arrest. The officer was exonerated in the county court at Hazard, where the shooting oc- cured.
 Feltner figured in some way in near ly all the family fights in this section during his lifetime. He was one of the leaders in the Hargiss-Cockrell feud in Bloody" Breathitt in 1905. He testified at the trial to a remarkable deal in assassination. He said that Sheriff Ed Callahan and the Hhrgisses hired him to murder James B. Mar cum, whose killing has been immortal ized in the weird mountain ballads which can be heard from the mouths tain county seat. Instead of doing the murder, he said, he warned Marcum.
 Many Things Have Happened.
 Many things have happened in the last five years to stamp out feuds. There are the moonlight schools, fos- tered by Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart, editor of the Moorehead Mountaineer, which are teaching old and young to read and write and to realize the folly of fighting.
 Probably the most important ele- ment of change is the industrial de velopment. The whistle of the loco motive has driven out the report of the rifle. The mountaineers have learned that the pick and ax are bet ter weapons than the gun and knife. This section abounds in coal and tim- Der, which is now being developed on a large scale by eastern capitalists.
 The manner in which Judge James M. Benson enforced justice when the slayers of Sheriff B. Callahan were brought to trial in Winchester two years ago has also had a deterrent ef- feet on crime. Fourteen men were under indictment for conspiracy to kill. A tangled web of false testimony caused Judge Benton to summon a

IS SALVATION OF FOOTBALL
It Seems Certainty That There Is Co., ing to Be Further Developments
 in Passing Game.

The veterans may complain all they please and criticize thew" football {; but their criticism will not stop the evolution of the college sport.
 The evolution is natural, and it seems a certainty that there is going to be even further development of the passing game. This prediction is not based on statements of rule-makers and coaches. It comes from observa- tion.

l able, especially since the advent of the automobile. Yet the turns of the road can be easily determined if both the object and the trailer use machines. This difficulty has been overcome by the fact that few licensed chauffeurs dare to refuse the cooperation with the police and none of the out-of-town drivers can be long unknown to au- thOrities.
 With the small piece of mirror used as periscope the cleverest men pre- cede instead of follow their objects. In street cars, for instance, the trailer often sits in front of the object and ob- serves his motions with the little piece of glass. The apparent adjusting of pair of spectacles or. the twirling of a mustache will enable the trailer to ob- serve the person sitting behind, when the small mirror is concealed in the palm of the hand. Few persons believe that a person walking ahead or sitting in front of them are Following them, and many are thrown completely off their guard. Another important factor is the tele- phone espionage. Few secret messages | can now be sent by a suspected person through the hotel telephones. Every word is usually recorded by shorthand operators that are let in on the line | and even the scraps of torn paper from the waste baskets of the rooms | of suspected guests are pasted together on transparent paper and turned over to the police Names in hatbands, tail- | ors' labels in clothes and other details are observed and reported, and woe be to the one who registers under diff | ferent name than that of the labels in his coat.
 Where there is the slightest incon- gruity there will be the most strenu- ous system of espionage until the sus- pect is either in the tolls or the au- thorities are satisfied that he or she is harmless.
 Invisible paraffined pages are often placed three or four sheets down in pads of telegraph blanks so that copies are obtained of messages when pow dered charcoal Is shaken over the par affined sheets. Wherever the paraffined impressions are, the charcoal will ad- here and the lettering comes out quite closely. By vanishing the copy per manent copy is obtained, and such copies are often produced in evidence. Also every telegraph office in Germany is open for inspection by the secret service men.
 More than one-half of the higher class spies are required to have some ostensible avocatiOn or business, and frequently their wives and children or their most intimate friends do not know that they are in the service. They receive their salaries in the most roundabout ways at times, and are, as a rule, not extravagantly or even we'll paid. The members of the emperor's staff get from 5000 to %, ,OO0 marks per annum and a bonus upon special per formance.
 The cost of maintaining the espion- age system of Germany previous to and during the war has been enormous, but those who know declare that the results are we'll commensurate with the expenditures.

HALF A CUP OF MILK
"Many Mickle Makes q
Muckle."

Half cup of milk-whole,
skinned or sour-a seemingly trifling
matter-hardly worth the trouble to
keep or use.
In many households quite a little
milk Is wasted-left uncovered in
glasses-regarded as useless because
the cream has been skinned Off-al-
lowed to sour-poured down the sink
or thrown out.
Now, If every hOme-there are TO-
100000 of them-should waste on the
average one-half cup daily. 1t would
mean a waste Of 100000 quarts
daily-912, 100000 quarts year-the
total product Of more than 100000
cows.
1t takes q lot of grass and grain to
make that much milk-and an army of
people to produce and deliver 1t.
But every household doesn't waste
half-cup Of milk day? Well, say
that one-half cup Is wasted in only
one out Of hundred homes. Still in
tolerable, declare government experts
when milk is so nutritious-when skim
milk can be used in making nutritious
soups and cereal dishes-when sour
milk can be used in bread-making OF
for cottage cheese.

Poultry Pointers.

Preserve surplus fresh eggs in wa
ter glass or limewater.
A small number of chickens can be
kept in almost any backyard.
They can be fed to large extent on
table scraps and vegetable waste.
Their eggs should make q substan-
tial addition to the family food sup
ply.
They can be housed at small ex-
pense in piano boxes or other large
packing cases.
Surplus cockerels from hatchings
and old hens will take the place of q
considerable quantity Of purchased
meat.
Separate ROSTERS from hens after
the Matching season and produce In
fertile eggs. Such eggs are much more
easily kept in good condition than fer
tile eggs.
The greatest success in successful
poultry raising for market and eggs
Is to know your flock thoroughly, know
which are the producers and get rid
Of the drones.
Keep box of dry bran where the
hens can have access to 1t. Feed the
pullets not only for eggs. but for
growth. They ought to keep on grow
Ing for some time yet.
