Information Charging Him With As
sauIt with Intent to Kill Was
Filed in Superior Court
Today.
HICKS WAS WOUNDED
Thomas Claims He, Jumped Out from
Behind Tree While Hicks Says
He Was Talking to Thomas
Wife.

Webb Thomas was arraigned in
the superior court this morning on
charge OF assault with intent to
Kill. filed by G. e. Hicks. Hicks
charges that Thomas took two shots
at him last night and that one lodged
in his leg and one cut across his
his nose. Thomas pleaded not guilty
and is released under $500 bonds.
The assault took place last night
about 7:30 o'clock in front of the
Hagerman home, on Timea street
between Eighth and Ninth streets.
According to Thomas story, a man
jumped out from behind a tree at
him, and he shot, thinking it was a
hold-up man. This was the version
he gave the police.
Hicks tells different story to the
officers. He said that he was talk
ing to Thomas wife and her mother
last night, when one of the women
said: Here comes Webb" They
had hardly finished when two shots
were fired, both hitting Hicks.
Hicks appeared at the police sta
ton this morning to swear out an
information against Thomas. Thomas
went to the station last night and
told his part of the trouble, and was
not arrested.
Mrs. Thomas and her mother APP
peared at the police station this
morning. Mrs. Thomas was trying to
find out how she could get her
clothes out of the house. 1t is quite

Cured over Mrs. Thomas. This is
not the first time that there has
been trouble between the two, ac-
cording to police officers.
Hicks has filed a $500 suit in the
district court asking damages for q

HENS TEETH ARE "SCARCE;"
THEREFORE, HELP HER "CEIEW''

The old saw, las scarce as hens

turkey" or any other member OF
the bird family had been substi-
tuted for hen" The entire ornitho-
logical division Of the animal king
dom is toothless. No painful filing
of bicuspids in their young lives nor
GROWING of mlars in their later
days! In the bird family there is
not q particle of need of screwing
courage up to the point where an
appointment with the dentist is made,
no enduring of anguish in the chair
for them, and none to be faced later
when the bill comes in. When a
hens teeth" become inefficient she
simply discards them and picks up
some new ones. Truly, there are
many compensations in having been
born a bird.
How Men's Digestion Works.
Armed with beak, the hen is able
to pick up food of fairly good size
but she is provided with no way of
breaking it into smaller particles in
her mouth, for she has neither teeth
nor lips. Instead, the food is swaI-
lowed whole and. is stored in her
crop until needed by the stomach.
Then its walls contract and down
it goes into the stomach.
This stomach has two parts, one
where the food is soaked with a Sc
erection of acid and ferment pepsin
and the other where the grinding
takes place. The latter. is commonly
known as the gizzard. Because of
this organs work in pulverizing food
to small particles, the hen and every
other member of the bird family is
able to dispense with teeth. The
teeth of bird are really the grit"
which it consumes with it's food.

shell, and similar substances, in the
gizzard, assist in puIverizing the oth-
er articles in it's diet. In fact, this
gritty material accomplishes the
same purpose that molar teeth DO in
other animals mouths. Until It be-
comes useless as a digestive aid it
is stored in the gizzard.
The hard, callous pads of the giz-
zard are contracted and expanded
during digestion by powerful mus
Cles. This motion, together with the
grit, reduces the food to fine par
ticles. The grit is retained in the
stomach until it is smooth and then
is discarded naturally and another
supply eaten to take it's place.
Grit for Confined Fowls
For this reason fowls kept in con-
inement need grit at their disposal
quite as much as other kinds of
feeds. The grit already in their giz
yards, at the time a mock. is penned,
might be all that the fowls will re-
quire for three or four weeks, but
if more is not supplied digestive
trouble will soon set in. 1t is safer
to supply it from the beginning.
Sand will do for the purpose but
chickens seem to prefer a coarser
grit, one of a size between wheat
and corn. Oyster shells are COM
monty supplied to the flock because
Of the lime they contain, which is
necessary for shell formation, but
they also serve to some extent as
grit in the diet. ~The pieces be-
come smooth more quickly than
harder grit and fresh supply must
be eaten more often.
United States Department of Ag-
riculture poultry specialists state
that hen needs and will consume
about 1 pound of grit in a 70
month period.
