Fowl With Lighted
Match in its Craw
Does Few FlipflOps

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Aug. 19.-'
Sauawl<s in the chicken yard of Mrs.
Lille Stiffler, 1924 avenue. aroused
the interest of the household to an in
vestigation. They found a "fry" on its
back, kicking it's heels in the air as If
in great pain. 1t was thought pos
sibly that the chick had been over
come by heat and bucket OF cold
water was poured over it to cool it Off
Then it was suggested that perhaps
its neck was broken, but examination
proved that part to be intact. Some
one said that chickens act peculiarly
when they have swallowed bee, and
the miserable fowl was given cold
sweet milk for relief of the possible
bee sting. 1t was also stood upon its
head and shaken several times TO re-
move the bee or whatever else whIch
might becausing its suffering but after
an hours work in first aid and other
treatments the fowl turned over on
its side and died. 3
Then Il was decided to hold an au-
topsy, and w c. Fuller, 5511 Swift
avenue, using pruning knife, opened
a craw and examined the contents
but no trace OF anything harmful was
found there. He then proceeded to
the gizzard and, as he punctured that
organ. smoke and sulphur fumes
emerged, and with the sand and 9TH
err rough material there was found a
burnt match head. Any number o.,
the neighborhood of 5525 Swift avenue
who will testify that smoke and sui
phur fumes came from the chickens
gizzard and that the grinding process
of the stomach ignited the match.

Mill Feed Almost
Off Local Market.

Retail dealers in mill feed here say
that there is virtually none of the pro-
duct for sale here, the supply from
last years milling having been ex-
hausted. Owing to the government
control of milling. there has been no
new supply available from the new
crop as hardly a mill in the northwest
is running to any CAPACITY as yet. MIL
feed cannot be bought by the dealers
in the big markets because OF the
shortage all over the northwest.
