BE A Poultry Producer.

Keep better poultry: Standard bred
poultry increases production and i'm
proves the quality.
Select vigorous breeders: Healthy,
vigorous breeders produce strong
chicks.
Hatch the chicks early: Early
Matched pullets produce fall and win
ter eggs.
Preserve eggs for winter use: Pre-
serve when cheap for use when high
in price.
Produce infertile eggs: They keep
better. Fertile eggs are necessary
for Matching only.
Gull the fiocks: Eliminate unprofit-
able producers and reduce the feed
bill
Keep a back yard flock: A small
flock in the backyard will supply
the family table.
Grow your poultry feed: Home
grown feed insures an available and
economical supply.
Eat more poultry and eggs: BY eat
ing poultry and eggs more freely you
will conserve the meat supply.
One of the most common mistakes
i'm the feeding of dairy cows is that
the good cows are not given a suffi-
Gent quantity of feed above that re-
quired for the physical maintenance
to obtain the maximum quantity of
milk they are capable of producing.
The curtain-front or partial open
front house is conceded to be the
best type for most sections. The
colony plan of housing poultry may
be adopted to an advantage on many
farms. This system does away with
the danger of tainted soil.
The roosts should be built on the
same level, feet from the floor, with
a dropping board about 6 inches be-
low them. Good roosts may be made
of 2 by inch material with the upper
edges rounded.
The nests may be placed on the
side walls or under the dropping
boards. 1t is best to have them
darkened. as the hens prefer Sc
cluded place in which to lay.

MAXIMUM MARGIN ON SALE by
RETAILERS TO CONSUMERS

The Food Administration has de-
termined that any sales of food COM
modities at the gross margin above
delivered cost in excess of those in
Dictated below are unreasonable, and
will be registered as prima faci evil
dence of violation of the statute and
of the above regulation. Percentage
may be calculated on the selling
price. Delivered cost shall mean the
cost at the railroad steamboat or
other terminal in the retailers town.
Where the retailer is not located in
railroad or steamboat town he may
include any hauling charge in the de-
livered cost.
The lesser margin indicated is not
minimum margin, but is a maxi
mum margin for those whose cost of
doin business is less, such as stores
which do not perform the services
of credit and delivery.

Both Sides Defiant
In Bronx Car Strike

Although no decisive announcement
was made yesterday by either the Off
cials of the Union Railway Company
of The Bronx or the representatives of
their striking employees, events indi-
dated a gulf still exists between the
two and neither side is willing to patch
up its differences.
Louis Fridiger, counsel for the strik-
ing carmen, asserted his men would
stick to their original demands, while
representatives of the company con-
tinued to ignore the strike and to make
light of the contentious of the strik-
ers that their absence was affecting a
slow but sure disorganization of The
Bronx transit system.
Clifton> Reeves, sent here from
Washington as conciliator, conferred d
yesterday with officials of the Union
Railway Company and placed the car
mems demands before them. While
neither the Federal arbitrator nor rep
resentatives of the company were will
ing to discuss the result, they said
a definite announcement would be made
to-day.
Conductors on several of the lines
said yesterday it was necessary for
them to work from fourteen to fifteen
hours day to keep the cars running
with any regularity. AT the offices Of
the company, however, it was said the
men are not kept on the job for more
than twelve hours. Hundreds of pas
sengers were kept waiting in the rain
at transfer points yesterday for de-
layed cars.

Paul Chapman Wins a Point
In His Fight to Escape Chair
District Attorney Lewis Agrees to Postpone Argument
Retria of Boy Slayer Convicted of Murder;
Sentiment Against Execution Grows

Paul Chapman's lawyers gained a
point yesterday which took all sig
nifcance from the red-ringed "June TO-"
on Paul's calendar-a legal concession
which, though it mean no more. at
least assures a couple of extra months
of life to the youngest prisoner Sing
Sing has ever seen passed through to
Murderers' Row.
In the death house Paul had looked
forward to June 10 as he had looked
forward to February Is when he was
confined in Raymond Street Jail, in
Brooklyn, and as he had wretchedly
awaited the coming of April during
his early weeks in his present quar-
ters. February Is was the day On
which was to start his trial for COM
plicity in the killing of Sam and Hairy
Regensburg April ! was the day
which Justice Kapper had set for his
execution. And June 10-yesterday-
was the day on which his lawyers we're
to make their final fight for him before
the Court of Appeals.
Last night young Paul was waiting
life had gone glimmcring. For all he
knew, the august justices who sit on
appeals were oracles always prepared
with a quick answer. For all he knew,
they had aready listened to all that
was to be said for him and had al
ready spoken. To-day, likely enough,
the word will penetrate the death house
that he has won respite.
Lawyers Not Ready
Matthew w. Wood and William r..
Murphy, the lawyers who defended Paul
and who are pledged to carry the fight
in his behalf to the very door of the
execution chamber, had not been in
readiness, however, tc argue the ap-
peal. The record of Paul's trial had
not been turned over to them until
May 8, and the time intervening had
not sufficed for the careful study of the
minutes and the search for authoritie s
which must be made before the writing
of their brief is begun.
District Attorney Lewis Of Kings,
who personally prosecuted Paul, and
who doubtless will go himself to AL
bany to fight the appeal, agreed to let
the argument go over until the next
term of the court. Since the present
term of the Court of Appeals is its
last until fall, Paul is saved for the
~
is almost certain-whether or not a
new trial is ordered-that the boy in
the Death House will five to see his
seventeenth birthday, which comes in
mid October.
Sentiment Grows Daily
While the delay may operate to
Paul's benefit, for the sentiment
against his execution is growing daily
more formidable and more insistent
upon making itself heard, it is not a
delay for which Wood and Murphy
were anxious. They are confident they
will be able to convince the Court Of
Appeals the case should be reviewed.
The appeal is to be grounded chiefly
on the strictness of Justice Kapper's
charge to the jury, and here two ma
jor points are to be cited. One lies in
his failure to charge that Paul might
be found guilty of second degree in
stead of first degree murder, or even
guilty of first or second degree man
slaughter. Justice Kapper instructe d
the jurors the boy must either be con-

Girls Block Sale
Of Hearst Papers
In Sterling, N. J.
Members of Women's Am.
bulance Unit Take
Drastic Action

STERLING, N. j., June 10.-The
Women's Ambulance Unit of Sterling,
consisting Of group of determined
young women, to-day stood in the path
of the special Hearst agents who made
a flying trip here in an attempt to
maintain the distribution of Hearst
newspapers in this city.
These young women have made up
their minds that Hearst newspapers
shall not enter Sterling in the future.
They passed q resolution to this effect
at their last drill
The Sterling Women's Ambulance
Unit is the first women's organization
in New Jersey to take official action
against Hearst papers.
Girls Are in Earnest
Apparently the young women are
going about the job of keeping Hearst
publications out of Sterling with the
same feminine determination with
which they recently entered the Red
Cross campaign.
"At the beginning of the Red Cross
campaign the ambulance girls had
their hearts set on seeing Sterling
oversubscribe its quota" said Miss
Yvonne Coradi, vice president of the
ambulance unit. "Well Sterling went
way over its Red Cross mark.
Now we girls have set out to pro-
hibit Hearst newspapers from our city.
Already we have been able to get one
local newsdealcr to quit handling
Hearst papers. The one other local
dealer has promised to do likewise just
as soon as his customers indicate that
they don't want to read that kind of a
daily paper.
Eve have not had time to call on
everybody in town yet. About twenty
five Hearst papers a day still como to
Sterling. AS soon as we can call on
those remaining Hearst subscribers, we
expect that the newsdealer will be
convinced what his customers want to
read hereafter
Ambulance Units Officers
Besides Miss Coradi the officers of
the ambulance unit are Miss Lillian
Nelson, president; Miss Bertha Pieu-
ker, secretary; Miss Anna Schumacher,
treasurer; Miss Elizabeth Stulz, execu-
tive officer.
The girls drill the same as the Ster-
ling Company, New Jersey Militia Re-
serve. Lieutenant Raymond Alland, of
the militia company, is the drillmaster
While the ambulance girls have un-
dertaken to finish the task of barring
Hearst papers, it was not they who
started it. The Rev. Frank L. Miller,
pastor of the Presbyterian Church, two
weeks ago urged Sterling citizens to
shun papers published by Hearst. Then
the militia company passed resolutions
making & similar request.

vlcted of murder in the first degree or
must be set free. There could be, he
said, no middle ground. Woods re-
quest that the lesser crimes be in
Guided in the charge was refused bv
the court.
Wood also will contend Justice Kap-
per IN his charge erred on finer
polnt OF the law, but one which was at
the root OF the defence. To under
here brief review is needful.
Violence Causes Flight
. Paul had said in his story, which in
itself was a confession of complicitv
before the fact but which the defence
was willing to accept in it's entirety.
that ne and Hughey Davis had gone to-
gether to the yard behind the Regens-
6urgs ground floor fat. at 636 Park
riace, Brooklyn. He said he had seen
Hughey Can older boy and admittedly
through the window, put his pistol on
TABLE and, moment later, raise his
blackjack to strike one of the sud
denly-awakened Regensburgs. In that
moment, Paul said, he ceased to be
partner in the crime-for he had stipu-
lated there was to be no violence.
He ran; and in all the trial the state
was not able to establish that he had
not been actually seeking an escape
through the cellar, as he insists to this
day, when Hughey reverted to the pis-
toll.
Freely and frankly Paul admitted
his connection with Hughey, admitted
his foreknowledge of the projected
BURGLARY and admitted his presence
as an accomplice when Hughey
climbed through the window. And, as
the court charged, these admissions
practically doomed the boy. If the
jury had been convinced; said Justice
Kapper, that he was with Hughey
Davis when Hughey entered the Re-
gensburg home-at which time the
felony in contemplation became fact
then their verdict must be one of
guilty. 1t was an open and shut case
right there. Nobody, least of all him
at the moment referred to by Justice
Kapper.
Paurs "Whole" Case
Thus the wnoIe fabric of defence
was swept away by the courts refusal
to acknowledge that the law might
take into consideration a repentance
Of criminal intent and abandonment of
crime. And here was the whole case
for Paul-he had thought better of
the wrong step'he had taken and had
run away!
Justice Kapper has been informed
by Mr. Wood of the attack which is to
be made on his charge, but probably
there will be others more disappointed
than he should a new trial be ordered.
Strict as he proved to be in his inter
probation of the law, the justice had
showed disposition to take cogniz-
ance Of Paul's youth, and had given
every possible leeway to the defence
His motion was manifest when he SEN
fenced Paul to die, and just SO his
sympathy had been in the course of
the trial. If anything his sympathy
is deeper to-day-indeed when Mr.
Wood told him of the postponement of
the argument on appeal, Justice Kap-
per was moved to remark:
TOO bad to leave that boy there all
summer"
BY "there" he meant the death house
AS the justice we'll knows that is none
too pleasant a place for any one to be
let alone sixteen-year-old boy.
