''The Toughest Kid in HelPs Kitchen

NEW YORK.-A Supreme court jury
N decided that William McCue was
not 'the toughest kid in Hell's Kitch-
en-" and awarded him $500 damages
against the Russell Sage Foundation
and publishers of book entitled boy
hood and Lawlessness." in which his
picture appeared with this caption.
In asking $4,000 damages the boys
complaint set forth that in 1914 a
photographer appeared in the "Helfs
Kitchen" district, where he lived, and
took his picture on the ground that
he wanted boy Scout pictures"
McCue. who Is now Of age, said he
was an altar boy in st. Ambrose's
church at the time and has never been
arrested or charged with delinquency
In any form.
In denying a motion to set aside the
verdict, Justice Ford said:
There is not scintilla Of evidence
that he was tough at all. 1t Is a
wicked libel. =.
THAT is the great trouble with
these movements. They think that
where there is poverty there must be
criminality.

LIVE STOCK NOTES

One of the biggest drawbacks to the
sheep industry is the stomach worm.
Pigs that have not been vaccinated
should not be placed on infected prem
ises.
Prolonged confinement upon con-
crete or dry board floor often induces
foot-sore lameness in heavy hogs.
The best results come in keeping
the young calf in clean place in the
barn until about three months old.
Sheep ticks cause great annoyance
to sheep of all ages, but more espe
cially to the lambs after the older
sheep have been shorn. In extreme
cases they cause loss in body weight

New Title Applied by Wisconsin Farm
er to the Reactionaries Of
Bovine Society.

From a farmer in Wisconsin comes
a new word for use in the Better
Sires-Better Stock" campaign now
being carried on by the United States
department of agriculture In co-opera-
tfon with state and local agencies. He
applies a new title to the reactionaries
of bovine society, and cites the in
dubitable fact that scrub bulls are the
enemies of good production that they
levy upon the milk, cream and butter
checks and compel the farmer to keep
cows, where the cows should keep the
farmer.
With these charges in mind and
with his eyes on the international
situation, this farmer suggests that
the scrub bulls be known hereafter as
