In only two years since 1908 has the
Oliver Company exceeded 50 per cent
of the total, in 1909 showing 50.36 per
cent and in 1911, 52.70 per cent.

Only seven mines shipped more
than 1,000, 900 tons in 1918, while this
output was exceeded by more than u
mines in 1918. The Norrie group on
this range was the only mine which
surpassed the figure The Hull Rust
pit, near Hibbing. was the biggest
individual shipper of the year. more
than 100000 tons larger than the
shipments of all the iron ranges ex-
cept the Mesaba and Gogebic being
moved from this property.
The NOrrie group has shipped more
than million tons each year for the
past eight years, while the Newport
only failed to reach the seyen-hgure
mark but twice since that time.
The shipments from the various
properties on the Gogebic range for
the past two years are as follows:

$1,000 for Twice
Facing Gallows

Jackson. Miss, Feb. 26.-Five
thousand dollars compensation for
twice facing the gallOws and serving
two years in the penitentiary, al
though an innocent man, was voted
TODAY bv the lower house of the Mis-
sissippi Legislature to Win Purvis Of
Lamar county.
Purvis was given the death pen
altv &c years ago for the murder of
win Buckley, a young farmer, near
Columbia, Miss, where he was called
to testify concerning whitecapping
incident.
On the day of execution the moose
slipped from Purvis' Eeck when the
trap was sprung and he fell to the
ground unhurt. Officers were again
attempting to perform the execution
when his attorneys interviewed. The
hanging was postponed and the SEN
tence committed to fife imprison-
ment.
Afte serving two years in the peni-
tertiary, Purvis was exonerated by a
deathbed confession of Joe Beard, a
Marion county farmer, who claimed
that Buckley was killed by Louis
ThornAill, another farmer, and that
Purvis had no part in the killing. A
pardon was granted Immediately by
the governor.
The bill to compensate Purvis was
supported by Representative Buck
ley, cousin of the murdered man.

rands done,
Perhaps some folks who mock my ef-
forts here

And bring large garlands worth

And paw the ground in ecstacy of

And friends viii wear crepe bow

While look down Tor up) million
miles,
And wonder why those people never
knew
How square I was before my spirit
flew.
When cash in, shall not care a
yen
For all the praise that's heaped upon
me then;
Serene and silent in my narrow box,
/ shall not heed the praises or the
knocks;
And all the pomp and all the vain
display
VIII be just fuss and feathers thrown
away.
So, tell me now, while I am on the
earth,
Your estimate of what my friend
ships worth
Oh, tell me what loyal chap l am,
And fill me full of taffy and of jam
Spread it on good, like honey's spread
on bread
Don't wait to shoot the bunk when
am dead.

CHICKENS NEED NOT BE
NUISANCE IN THE CITY

Objection is frequently raised to the
keeping of poultry in towns and cities
because of the odor which may result
and also because of roosters growing,
particularly in the early morning. In
some cases city regulations have been
formulated to prevent or to control
poultry keeping. Where there are
city regulations it is necessary to
find out their provisions and to con-
form them. But there is no necessity
for the poultry flock to become a nui-
sance to neighbors, says the United
States Department of Agriculture. If
the dropping boards are cleaned daily
and the houses and yards are kept
in reasonably clean condition there
will be no annoying odors.
The male bird need not be a nui-
sance. Unless it is intended to hatch
chickens from the flock it is unneces-
sary to keep a male bird, Federal
poultry specialists point out. The
fact that there is no male in the flock
will have absolutely no effect on the
number of eggs laid by the hens. II
1t is desired to mate the hens and to
hatch chicks the male bird should be
sold or eaten Just as soon as
the Matching season is over. This is
desirable not only to climate noise
but also to save the feed that would
be eaten by the male. and for the rea-
son that the eggs produced after the
male is disposed of will be infertile.
Since these eggs can not be Matched
they keep much better than fertile
eggs and consequently are superior
for preserving or for market.
The flock must be kept confined;
otherwise the hens will stray into
neighbors' yards and gardens, where
they may cause damage and, almost
surely, i'll feeling.
