WIDOWS INCOME
 $443, ,OOO A YEAR

Mrs. Frank w. Woolworth, widow of the late head of the chain of five and ten cent stores will receive an income of ths sum of $443,OOO year from her husbands estate. This was revealed when Supreme Court Justice Giegerich signed an or der requiring Hubert T. Par sons to file an additional bond for $2,6OO,OOO.

 The remainder of her income will be from the interest on Li- berty Bonds and the rental of Woolworth is sole legatee un- der her husbands will.

CHICKENS KEPT
 FROM CROSSING

While keeping two distinct breeds of poultry in one yard without mixing breeds seems difficult, it can be accomplish ed easily and with satisfactory results, as shown by the report of an experience just received by the Department of Agricul- ture from a New England rais- CT of poultry. One of the kinds kept is so-called egg breed, the other being a general-pur- pose variety of poultry. The method of preventing crossing is as follows:
 One year, roosters of the egg producing breed are retained araI.used for breeding, no other males being kept. The follow ing year roosters of only the general purpose stock are kept. The difference in the color of eggs of the two breeds selected is always so great that matching eggs have always been selected with certainty as to the breed laying them. The plan necessi- tates introducing new males. but the advantages of keeping the blood lines of two breeds seperate outweigh the slight cost of purchasing the males. Or, when this method is follow ed out on two nearby farms, an exchange or roosters could be arranged.

JAMES WADE

With the passing of James Wade at the age of 51 years, Williams looses one of her most highly respected citizens, and Arizona one of her greatest ad- mirers.
 Born in Ohio in 1868, he was taken as an infant to South Haven, Michigan, whefe he passed the earlier days of his life, attending the public school of that place. After leaving the school he became employed by a lumber company, which call ing he followed, it bringing him to this state in the fall of 1910. He became associated with the the Saginaw Lumber Company. taking charge of their horses. In that capacity he became acquainted with most of the em- ployees who afterward were to be numbered among his most intimate friends.
 After having been in Ariz- ona a few years he realized the possibilities of the cattle buis- ness and entered into it on large scale. About two years ago he disposed of his ranch together with all his cattle, and devoted his energies to develop ing very promising string of horses, taking them over sever al circuits.
 It was in Los Angeles that MT. Wade came to his death suddenly. Apparently in the best of health, the end was most unexpected.
 He leaves to mourn the pass ing of this big hearted man widow, Stella Wade.
 CARD OF THANKS
 desire to thank the many friends for their kind express ions of sympathy so clearly shown during the recent mis- fortune which took from me my husband, James Wade.
