First Discovery Of Gold
in California Was in 1848

The first gold In California was dis
covered II years ago. on january -.
1913. by James Wilson Marshall. He
was n native OF New Jersey who had
gone West and settled on the site OF
Sacramento. Blasting away some
rocks To make a foundation for n
building. he observed grains Of what
seemed To be gold scattered about in
the excavated earth. A test revealed
that IL really was the precious metal.
Wild excitement followed the discov-
cry. and the immortal rush Of the
forty Miners brought thousands OF
miners and Adventures 10 the golden
state. Marshall. the discoverer. did
not profit from his find and would
have spent his last days In poverty
except for a small pension granted
him by the state Of California

TIPS FOR THE
POULTRY GROWER

That laying hens will Increase their
production II fed a properly proper
toned ration has been demonstrated
m Missouri this winter. And the IA
ton costs no more than some Of the
carelessly compounded ratious many
fiocks receive. Here Is the ration ex-
pressed I'm quantities sufficient 10 feed
1OO hens one day:
Scratch Feed-Ten pounds shelled
corn or kafiir and . pounds thrashed
oats or barley. Feed Ina deep litter
morning and evening.
Dry Mash-Three pounds bran or 2
pounds cornmeal. pounds shorts or
3 pounds ground oats. and Ia pounds
beefscrap or pound tankage- Three
gul0ns Of milk may be substituted for
the heefscrap or tankage. Keep this
mash before the birds at all times.
I'm addition To this feed supply green
feed In some form. plenty Of fresh
water and grit and shell.
The use Of the foregoing ration has
been advocate,, by the extension serv-
ice Of the University Of Missouri col
iege Of agriculture.
Ten communities have reported re-
suits for 30 days which shows a per
centage increase Of 173. This means
that all communities reporting are re-
ceiving a double return IN number Of
eggs laid. and one community reports
that the yield has been increased sew
en-fOld This Is conclusive evidence
that the ration is practical. and that a
laying hen. well fed. will respond to
good feed.

!. VIII Hold Meeting To-day.
Organizer Brady Here. .

There will be a meeting of the
cooks, walters and mattresses at
Browns hall tonight. Friday, for the
purpose of organizing union of cul-
mary workers. The meeting has been
called by the Federated Trades as
sembly and will be in charge of its
organization committee. Henry Pc
reault is chairman of the committee.
Josh Brady, organizer for the Hotel
and Restaurant Employees Internation-
al Alliance, is working among the cul-
mary workers this week. He has been
sent to Duluth by the international
union and will work here until he
completes an organization and puts it
on it's feet.
Every cook, waiter, waitress and
kitchen employe in a hotel or restau-
rant in Duluth is urged to attend the
meeting. The meeting will run in two
sections. The first session will be held
at p. M, so that the night workers
may be given an opportunity to join.
The evening meeting will be called at
$3.50 p. m.
Duluth has had several unions of
cooks and walters in the past. They
have run on for a. time and have met
with much success, then something
happened and they would disband. 1t
is hoped that this effort will put the
organization on permanent basis.
