Shopmen Plan to Force Action From
 Rail Labor Board

Chicago, May 20.-Notices were sent today to 154 general chairmen of rail. road maintenance of way employees calling them to meeting here June to discuss the "interminable discus. sions" being held by the railroad la. Dor board. The call was issued by A. F. Everett, chairman of the general committee of chairmen, who explained that the meeting had previously been postponed to give the labor board a chance to act.
 Labor leaders refused to make pre- dictions concerning action which may be taken at the meeting, but declared they wanted to know "how long the labor board was going to continue it's interminable discussions !"
 E. T: Whittier, chairman of the con ference committee of the railroaods presented quantity of statistics to the board today intended to show that t yardmen in former years had received large pay increases.

tunities for the development of the boy religiously than does any other movement instituted solely for the boys.
 The movement has been developed on such broad lines as to embrace all classes, all creeds, and at the same time to allow the greatest pos sible independence to individual or ganizations, officers and boys.
 The Boy Scouts of America main. tain that no boy can grow into the best kind of citizenship without rec ognition his obilation to God. No matter what the boy may be-Cath- ollie or Protestant ,or Jew-this fun damental need of good citizenship should be kept before him.
 The Boy Scouts of America, as an organized body, therefore, recognizes the religious element in the train ing of boy, but it is absolutely non-sectarian in it's attitude toward that religious training. Its policy is that the religious organizat tion or institution with which the boy scout is connected shall give definite at- tention to this religious life.
 A Means to An End.
 Character development is the real objective of the Boy Scout movement. Every step in the, scouting program is but a means to this end.
 This character development mani fests itself in health efficiency, chivalry. loyalty, patriotism and good citizenship. Adv.

Negro Woman is Held for Death
 of Own Brother

Ethel Thomas, negro woman, was arrested yesterday morning by Deputy Sheriff J. L. McBurnett on warrant charging involuntary manslaughter Her arrest came about through the death of Will Stevenson, negro, aged 23, who died at the Lucey Memorial hospital as the result of being stabbed by the woman, who is his sister. It Is said that the two were playing and wrestling over possession of knife, with the result that Stevenson was stabbed in the abdomen.
 Coroner H. K. Williams held an in- quest yesterday and it was recommen- ded that the woman be held for inves- tigation by the grand jury. The &C., cident occurred at Stevenson's home near Fifth and Missouri. Before Ste venson died he made a statement to Deputy McBurnett and Dr. A. J.

Pennsy Sends Cars
 to Western Stations

New York, May 2O-In an effort to move eastward vast supplies of food and fuel held in the west be- cause of lack of railroad equipment the Pennsylvania railroad today be- gan speeding westward long trains of empty box and gondola cars. All outgoing freight has been halted by the Pennsylvania for 48 hours. It is expected that during the day oth- CT roads also will place short time embargoes into effect.
 The car shortage, coupled with la Dor disturbances on the railroads is rapidly creating an acute situation here, it is believed, by business men who asserted buildings trades are being effected. Many industrial plants are being forced to close.
 One large contracting firm re- ported that five out of it's nine build ing operations had been halted be- cause of inability to secure supplies and cited the fact that they have waited two months to get carload of steel from Youngstown, O., and one month for carload of bricks from Trenton, N. J. The latter place just a few hours run from New York.

Probably the cheapest way to pro-
duce pork is by the corn, clover or
alfalfa, and "a little tankage" method,
according to B. H. Kern, county agent
of Grundy County. More pork will
be produced to the acre by hogging
down corn than by scooping corn
with a shovel. Limit the acreage
that the hogs will clean up as they 60.
A twenty-six inch woven wire fence
fastened to a post at each end of the
field, tied to corn stalks between the
posts or to sticks driven for the pur-
pose, is the method being used by
some Grundy County farmers for
fencing Off of a small acreage so that
the hogs will clean up the corr as
they go. A mineral mixture for keep.
ing the hogs in good condition should
be used.
In the exact cost accounting stud
les carried out by the Bureau of Farm
Management of the University of H.
inois, work horses required annually
but 25.3 bushels of corn, 37.S bushels
of oats, IL tons hay and ITO days &C.
cess to pasture, at 1876 acres of pas
ture per horse. This is an allowance
of 2626.4 pounds of grain, 340O
pounds of hay and 1876 acres of pas
ture per year for each working horse
The horse observed were working reg
uIarly on Illinois farms under usual
farm conditions.
with these figures as a guides it is
not difficult to compute the cost per
horse per year. Manure produced by
horses and colts is valuable to the
farmer and offsets feeding costs at
present grain prices to the extent of
approximately 500 per year for a
drafter and $50 per year for a draft
colt. This is placing it's worth at So
pc rton. At present, figuring corr at
9Oc, oats at 60c, hay at $25 per ton
and $15 per acre for pasture rent, the
total board bill for a working horse
comes to $117.34 per year. The farmer
subtracts from this the value of fer
tilizer contributed, $1,000, leaving but
$78.35 expense fora years feeding.

per cent good while not a bird of the

flock had been kept laying by means
of proper feeding while those of the
other flock had been "set back" so
