 Sells Soda for f5 Cents.
 Siok admitted sole ownership of tho place, which. he said he leased about two weeks ago for s1OO month and fitted up with a bar and other cafe fixings for s1,000. He said he sold only notwithstanding wine and near beer. Asked if he accepted 45 cents for the drink served the patron from whom Sergeant Richardson took the evidence. he replied that he would accept more if it was proffered. It is his custom to charge 4 , scents for the wine and for some brands of soda water, he said. He denied emphatical- ly having any whiskey on the premises or selling liquor at any time, and said he knew nothing apout the alcohol rectiier
 Siok's alertness foiled an attempt by the authorities to secure evidence for his conviction more than a week ago. Sergeant John J. King and Pa trolman Kennedy at that time entered the cafe and saw whiskey being served. The contents of the glass and a larger glass, used by the bartender were quickly and effectively destroyed. the former by being drunk and the latter by being spilled into the sink.

FARMING ACCORDING
TO MARKET DEMANDS
Majority of Produce Growers Ere
Looking Ahead.
Profitable Practice to Find Out What
Other Sections Are Doing and As
certain Advantages in Con-
Stunning centers.

Travelling by faith rather than by
sight has sometimes been recommend
ed as wise policy, but produce growers
used to find it frequently and nightly
disastrous when they followed it per-
force before the establishment of the
crop and market reporting service of
the United States department of agri-
culture. OF course, few of them are
still following the faith system of
growing and marketing because they
have not seen fit to use the eyes fur
nished them by the government re-
porting service, and these are still
planting, gathering and marketing at
random. But the majority are looking
around and ahead, seeing what other
sections are doing, finding where any
shortage or surplus is likely to be pro-
duced, ascertaining special advan-
tages or disadvantages in consuming
centers, and generally getting a fore
cast of the market from crop and
other conditions the country over.
Thus the more iarsighted southern po-
tato growers take into account the
volume and probable movement of the
northern crop and the amount of the
old crop likely TO be left over until
spring. Even the northern growers
may put in a late acreage and top
dress the crop If the general situation
suggests shortage caused by re-
duced acreage or by a hard spring

ness or surplus of male birds. Both
the age and the sex of pigeons are diff
ficult to determine by casual observa-
ton, which forces the buyer to depend
largely on the sellers word.
1t is advisable either to buy mated
pigeons which are from one to three
years old or to get young birds six to
eight weeks old and mate then at the
proper age. Pigeons are most valuable
as SQUAD producers when from two to
six years Of age, although many Will
breed until they are about eight years
old. The small varieties mate and
breed at five to six months, and the
larger ones at eight to nine months.
The young pigeons are usually re-
moved from the breeding pen and put
into a pen by themselves after they are
able to fly about and pick up their
own food. A catching net or bag
made of large-mesh cotton netting,
with the mouth or top about eighteen
inches in diameter, is very useful for
catching the pigeons. Squads Matched
in April, May and June make the best
breeders, while their value on the mar
ket is comparatively low at that time
of the year.
Marketing the Squads.
Squads are fed by the parent birds
until they are marketed, which is
usually at from three and one-half to
four and one-half weeks of age. They
must be sold about this age, as the
period during which they are ready for
market rarely exceeds one week.
SQUADS are in good market condition
when fully feathered under the wings,
which is usually about the time they
begin to leave their nests, and Ii not
marketed at that time they soon lose
their baby fat and their flesh begins to
get hard. In the morning, before the
breeders are fed, pick up the SQUADS
to be marketed when their crops are
empty. Leave them in a pen for IL
hours to allow all food to pass out of
their crops.
The production of squads from each
pair of breeders varies from one or
two to as high as ten or eleven pairs
a year, but an average of from six to
seven pairs is fair estimate, although
some squad breeders produce more.
Squads usually sell at the highest
prices during cold weather, as pigeons
do not breed so freely then as Is spring.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Many years ago, wave of enthu-
siasm over squad raising swept the
country. Fabulous profits were told
Of and many people bought breeding
stock and expected to make fortune
with little work in a short time. When
they discovered that these figures We're
overestimated and that to reap profit
regular care must be given the birds,
their interest slackened and they talked
as much against the proposition as
they had for it in the beginning.
AS matter of fact, pigeon raising
can be conducted successfully as spe-
cial business, but is better adapted to
serve as a side issue on a small scale
in towns and cities and on general
farms. The demand for squads, es-
pecially In large cities, is increasing.
Squads are often used to replace
dressed game, which Is decreasing in
this country.
The prices received for squads are
high enough to make squad raising re-
turn fair profit wherever there is a
good market. An average annual re-
turn of from 81 to $3.50 above feed
cost per pair of breeders is consid-
cred good by successful plants produc-
ing only squads for market.
Pigeons as a Side Line.
Many people can keep pigeons sue
cessfully as side issue, although 1t
requires constant oversight and care
full attention to details. The greatest
difficulties confronting the successful
raising of pigeons seem to be in get
ting good breeding stock and finding
q good market for the product of
small flock, specialists in the United
States department. of agriculture say.
Pigeons are a profitable source of in
come on general farms where they may
get much of their feed from the fields,
provided they are not nuisance and
the loss by shooting and by hawks,
owls and cats is not large.
Good breeding stock is one of the
prime essentials of success In SQUAD
raising 1t is advisable to buy pigeons
from reliable breeders; If possible,
from those who guarantee, their prod
uct. Many failures in squad raising
have been due to poor stock, because
the prospective producer bought old
pigeons past their period of useful

MIXTURE FLIES WILL AVOID
In Preparing RepeIIents Care Should
Be Taken Not to Make Them
Too Strong.

Many malodorous mixtures, particu-
larly of an oily nature, have some
value as repellents for stable flies, but
in preparing these care should 50
taken that they are not made too
strong, especially when animals are
being worked in the hot sun, as they
are likely to cause overheating and
often produce shedding of the hair.
