him to Jacobs island is to be torn

misstep as he tried to swing clear Of
the roof, and the moose at the end Of
the rope caught him and hanged him,
whereat his dog, trying to leap from
the roof to his shoulders, missed his
aim and fell into the ditch at the base
of the house, dashlng out his brains
on stone.
Jacobs island is in Bedmondsey,
near st. Savior's docks. The bitches

mainland and which carried water

Why not use aerial submarines"

Only by some such means will any

president Of the section of physiology
OF the International Aeronautic expo

Louis Breguet, the builder Of air

is capable Of carrying twenty-seven

Old Coach Travel Expensive,

In England, too, railway fares are
about to be raised at even higher
percentage than In this country, re-
marks writer In the New York
Times. Whether the consequent grum-
bling is higher there than hero 1t Is
impossible to decide. As an intended
help In stilIlng 1t, the newspapers are
publishing the prices for trnnsporta-
ton that travellers had to pay In pre-
railway days.
Thus, for the journey from London
10 Glasgow the INSIDE" passenger Of
1912 had to pay about $50. Going no
farther than Newcastle from London
cost the man inside the coach some
thing like $2S. In addition there was
the outlay for meals on the road and
for the long list Of expected tips to
guards, coachmen, etc.

BEST FOOD TO FATTEN FOWL
Whether Young or Old Mixed Grains
Are Better Than Any One Variety
Milk is Relished.

Mixed grains are better for fatten-
ing fowl, whether old or young than
any one variety alone. Oats and corn,
ground. are perhaps the most fatten-
ing. Buckwheat and ordinary wheat
are good food and add variety TO the
rations but they are not so fattening.
Chickens get tired OF one kind Of feed,
the same as people do, but they thrive
on mixed feed. Skim milk is one of
the best articles Of diet that can be
put on the fowls bill Of fare. 1t is
relished. II is healthful. it is nourish-
ing and it greatly improves the color,
favor and texture Of the dressed
meat. Among the most rapid gamers
for killing purposes are the barred
Plymouth Rocks, the Rhode Island
Reds and the Wyandottes. Fed on
the above rations any Of them can be
made to gain from pound to a pound
and a half in three weeks, possibly
less. This is profitable feeding.

excellent substitute for beef scrap. 1t
should be purchased in small qUanti-
ties. as it cannot be kept fresh for any
length Of time and when spoiled may
cause severe bowel trouble. 1t is best
fed in a trough not oftener than every

FEED FOWLS DAMAGED GRAIN
q Is Essential to Exercise Particular
Care That Birds Are Not In
lured by Material.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Although 1t is good management to
allow poultry to rustic about in grain
fields and stock yards after the grain
crop has been stacked or thrashed, it
is essential to exercise particular care
that the fowl are not injured by feed
ing on damaged grain. Specialists of
the United States department Of agri-
culture assert that where damaged
grain is fed in limited amounts to the
flock which is on free range, the pOssi-
bility of serious injury is reduced to a
minimum. On the other hand, they
state that it is advisable not to feed
the damaged grain-and never TO use
this material if it is mOldy or musty
in anything but very small amounts
where the fowl are closely confined
all the time. There is an inexplain-
able something about the range which
the birds have as well as the waste
products which they utilize that ap-
parently keeps them healthy, so that
