Roller gins are used principally in
ginning sea-island cotton, and the.
long-staple cottons of Arizona and

California.
There is now enough cotton in the
world, unspun, to last nearly two
years.

~BUGs AND WORMS GoE:G TO
WASTE"

Assistant State Agent, H. H. B.
Mask of Raleigh, made the state
ment while here last week, that
bugs, worms, grass seeds, weed
seeds, grass ETC., are going to waste
for lack of sufficient poultry to con-
sumo them on many farms.
1t is poor hen that lays only so
eggs annually. If 5000 families in
this county owned 100 hens each
and got only so eggs from each hen,
that would amount to 100000 eggs
or 1,250,000 dozen which at so cents
would bring a cash income annually
of SS75,000 or S124.50 per family.
Can 1t Be Done?
Lack of funds can not be made
an excuse. Set more hens this
spring, raise more pullets, and
presto the thing is accomplished.
But. | hear some one thinking,
how about Cutting our local mar
ket? How can we sell these eggs at
a profitable price," That is the OBJ
ject OF this article.

TESTIMONY ALL TAKEN
Surrogate Will Next Hear Ar.
guments in Litigation of
Mrs. r. r. Honeyman, Jr.

surrogate Robert S. Belletreau Of
Suffolk county concluded the hearing
of testimony yesterday In the ltiga-
tion brought by Mrs. Robert p.
Honeyman, Jr., against Martin Tay-
Tor of New York and Leander III. La
Chance of Chicago. administrators of
the estate Of her father. John X.
Stewart. who was president of the
Stewart Warner Speedometer Com
pany and of the Stewart Manufacture
Ing Company. The Surrogate. sitting
at Riverhead, L. l., adjourned the
case to December %, when argu-
ments will be heard.
Through her legal action Mrs. Honey
man seeks to obtain complete possession
OF the property now handled for her un-
der letters Of administration by Mr.. La
Chance and Mr.. Taylor. and she seeks
also 70 prevent them from obtaining let
ters of administration on the estate OF
her sister, Jean Stewart, who died In
Chicago last October at the age OF 10
years. She charges that Mr.. LaChance
obtained control OF the two important
Stewart companies. the manufacturing
company and the speedometer concern.
with the knowledge and consent Of Tay-
Tor. by purchasing a controlling block Of
stock at prices below the current mar
ket quotations.
Additional papers filed in the case
yesterday furnished further corrobora-
zion of the stories that Mr. Stewart be-
gan life as Dennis OBrien and followed
the county fairs for many years as a
horse clipper before he invented the
speedometer that was the foundation of
his fortune. According to these papers,
he changed his name to Stewart early In
life because of anti-Irfsh and anti
Catholic feeling In the community In
which he lived. This paragraph appears
!n the additional answer fled on behalf
of Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. LaChance:
ITO the best of deponent's knowledge
and belief the persons next after them
(the deponents) which are entitled to
letters Of administration on the said
infant, Jean Stewart, are John M.
O'Brien. David w. O'Brien and Cath
crime O'Brien, who reside at Harbor
avenue. Nashua, N. H, surviving broth
ers and sisters OF John X. Stewart"
The statement that Mr.. Stewart had
charged his name from O'Brien because
of anti-Irish and anti-Catholic feeling
was made also by Mr.. La Chance before
entering the court yesterday morning
John d. Black of Chicago. who was

administrators, said he had known moth
ing of the change In name until recently.
Mr.. Black later Informed the Surrogate
that he desired to take all blame for the
acts Of Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. La Chance
as everything they had done concerning
the estate had been done under his legal
advice.
Mr.. Taylor denied that he ever had
purchased any stock from the estate,
and declared that he owned less stock
in the Stewart companies now than
when Mr. Stewart died. A similar denial
was made by Mr.. La Chance.
