With her husband somewhere at
sea and her two children and inva-
lid mother freezing" Mrs. Eleanor
Garertt Bunker. of Norwalk. Conn.,
today appealed to the subcommittee
of the Senate Manufactures Commit
tee TO get coal for her home.
Mrs. Bunker stated that her hus-
band is a naval surgeon somewhere
at sea-" She declared that her home
in Norwalk is fireless- Reciting her
efforts to get coal in Norwalk. she
told of her visit to Judge Light, local
fuel administrator for Norwalk.
All dealers had refused to sell her
coal she said. but Judge Light had
told her the firm Of Raymond Bros.
On Norwsl5. had 400 tons. She ap-
pIied to this firm. but they refused to
sell her coal.
Then she demanded that Judge
Light tell her why he could not COM
mandeer coal for her, and declared
his reply was, at is none OF your
business"
Partner In Coal Firm
In cross-examination, she stated
tndL Judge LikHl IL q pdIbiiSI az NAiS
real estate business with T. !. Ray
mond, "a member OF the coal nrm."
A Westport, Conn, dealer had a
barge of coal at the docks OF Ray
nond Bros. Mrs. Bunker said, but
this firm refused to allow the West
port dealer to sell his coal to persons
who would not haul it from the
barge.
Efforts at the offices Of the Fed
erzl Fuel Administration have been
TO no avail, Mrs. Bunker said.
MIssOurIans Accused.
Attorney General Frank W. Meal
lister, of Missouri. took the stand and
told OF the presence in Missouri of as
sociations of coal operators which are
IN violation of the antitrust law. He
named the nth and ninth district
coal bureau and the Southwest Inter
state Coal Operators Bureau.
Missouri mines are operating but
two-thIrds OF the time, McAllister
said. He attributed this to car short
age and labor troubles.
III mines were operated eight hours
q day, six days a week, there would
be no coal shortage" said McAllister.

BOY SHOOTS OUT OWN EYE
Shoots at Blank Cartridge With Air
Rife and His Aim Is
Perfect.

York, Pa.AHis perfect aim with an
air rife almost cost eleven-year-Old
Charles Keech his life and less seri-
ously injured two companions, Owen
Neal and Francis Spicer, who had
called to witness his skill.
Young Keech had somewhere OBJ
tanned q blank cartridge for an army
rifle, and this he placed on nearby
fence, its business end" pointed to-
ward himself. His aim to hit this end
with the small lead pellet from his air
rife was successful, but the impact
discharged the cartridge. The wad
struck Keech and tore out his left
eye. One finger of the Neal boy was
torn almost off by fragment of the
brass shell, while the rebounding bull
let from the air rifle entered the arm
of young Spicer.
All were attended at the York hos
pital, where II was ascertained that
Keech would lose the sight Of the In
jured eye.

CHICKS INFESTED WITH LICE
Some Good Insect Powder-Make
Examination Often.

Where chicks are raised with hens,
they are likely to become infested
with lice. II the lice get very nu-
merous, they greatly retard the chicks
growth and may even cause their
death. The hen should be powdered
thoroughly with some good insect
powder before she is put in the coop
with the chicks, and ut intervals of
several days or week thereafter.
The baby chicks should be examined
for lice, particularly on the head,
under the wings and about the vent.
If any are found, little grease, such
as lard, should be rubbed on in those
places. Apply grease moderately, as
too much will injure the chicks. The
chicks should be examined frequently
and the treatment repeated If lice are
found on them.

VENTILATION OF HENHoUsEs
Reason Many Fowls Seek Roasting
Places in Trees Is Because Build
lnas Are Too Warm.

Hennouses need to be ventilated In
the summer time as much as in the
winter time. The reason many hens
20 to the trees to roost Is because the
house is too warm for them. AT least
ten inches Of perch space should be
provided for the fowls, so that they
will not have to crowd; and the more
open the house In during the summer
months the more contented the fowls
will be. A small hole cut on the north
side Of the poultry house about two
feet Off the floor and left open during
the day and night will do great deal
to cool the house down and to remove
any foul odors. All windows should be
removed and screens inserted; also the
doors should be left wide open.

MAKING MONEY WITH CAPONS
Fowls Should Reach Full Size Before
Fattening-BrIng Better Prices
Than Turkeys.

Capons should reach full size be-
fore fattening, and this should be
when they are from ten to twelve
months old.
Fatten them from two to three
weeks before marketing-two If they
are shut up in dark coops. Feed
them all they will stuff Of cornmeal
and middlings, wet, but not too wet
with milk.
Cracked bits of glass are used as
an aid to digestion, but good grit Is
safest where the ground stuff is used.
Grit Of some kind they must have.
The farmer who does not keep over
a lot Of male birds as capons will lose
a big profit on fowls as turkeys do not
at any time sell as high as capons per
pound.
