saw seventeen different kinds Of bloody
murder looming up again when !
tagged along after the boss on the
trip down the hall to our offices.
The guess was right, both ways
around. 1t was Mrs. Sheila, and she
had the major with her. And the air
Of the private office was so thick with
tragedy that it made the very elec'
tries look dim and ghostly. Mrs.
Sheila didn't have a bit Of color In
her face, and her eyes had big hor-
ror in them that was enough to make
your flesh creep.
| won't attempt to tell all that was
said, partly by the good old major and
partly by Mrs. Sheila. But the gist Of

POULTRY NOTES.

Don't expect 200-egg pullets from
1OO-egg hens. Remember that like
begets like
Keep lime always in reach, plenty Of
gravel or grit and good dry dust
bath for the fowls.
The best roosts are all on level
and not more than two or three feet
above the floor. No necessity for high
rOOsts.
The element Of luck doesn't enter
into the poultry business more largely
than into any other. Ability and per-
slstency are what count.
Improve the quality Of your flocks
by purchasing some good fowls from
a heavy-laying strain Of purebreds. It
will be money we'll spent.
Scabby or scaly legs can be cured
by applying a mixture Of lard and
| kerosene twice q week for a month,
Rub it well In among the scales.

mash may be placed in hopper,
where It will not be wasted, and left
before the chicks at all times.
As soon as the chickens are old
enough and will eat whole wheat,
cracked corn, or other grains, the
small-sized chick feed may be discon.
tinued and the larger-sized grains fed
instead. In addition to the grain feed.
they must be supplied with grit, oyster
shell, and charcoal at all times. and
the better way is to place these in .
hopper, hanging 1t in a convenient
place where the chicks may help them
selves. IF chicks are kept In confne.
ment, they must be furnished liberal
supply of tender, green feed, like
lawn clippings, lettuce leaves, and
such other things as may be available
Whenever possible, however, chicks
should be given grass range, wher
they will supply their own green feed
catch bugs, worms, etc. Chicks that
are allowed to run on a grass range
are usually strong and thrifty and will
grow much more rapidly than those
that are kept in confinement. In add
ton to other feeds, the chickens
growth may be FASTENED considerably
by giving them sour milk to drink
Chickens are very fond Of milk in any
form and will eat and drink liberal
supply of It. 1t may be fed either
sweet or sour, but the latter Is more
desirable. Sour milk will help to keep
chickens healthy, and Is one Of the
hest things that can be fed to promote
rapid growth and development When
milk Is fed the amount Of meat SCRAP
IN the mash may be reduced one.hali
or left out entirely.

1t was right here that an odd thing
happened. Con Corrigan, a big two
fisted freight engineer standing direct
ly behind Hoskins, reached an arm
around the speakers neck and choked
him so suddenly that Hoskins' sentence
ended in a gasping chuckle. When the
garroting arm was withdrawn the con-
ductor looked around sort of foOishly
and said: I'm thinking that's about all
we wanted to say, amt it, boys?' and
the deputation filed out as soIemnly
as It had come in.

wholly in the dark when the tramp

away in the corridor. That uninten'
tional mention Of Mr.. Van Britt's name
looked as If it might open up some
more possibilities, though what they
were I couldn't imagine, and | don't
believe the general manager COULD
either.
After that, things rocked along pref
ty easy until after dinner. Instead OF
going right back to the office from
the club, Mfr. Norcross drifted into
the smoking-room and filled a pipe.
In the course of few minutes, E-a]or
Kendrick dropped In and pulled up a
chair. I don't know what they talked
about, but after little while, when
the boss got up to go, l heard MIN
say something that gave the key to
the most Of what had gone before l
guess.

At that, Mr.. Norcross explained in

hadn't gone-why he couldn't CO.

grayer than ever.

ACTION TO GET A
LATE SHORE TRAIN

The CHAMBER of Commerce will
start negotiations at once with the
Chamber of Commerce of Asbury
Park and the New York & Long
Branch railroad to obtain a late
train from the shore resorts to New
York City during the coming season,
1t is felt that such a train operated
during the summer months would
prove a Gee from a railroad
standpoint, as there are many per-
sons here and at other stations along
the line who would go to the resort
towns for the afternoon and evening
if the return trip did not ave to be
made at such an early hour.
1t is the desire of those interested
in having such a train placed in
operation to have the train leave
Asbury Park about II o'clock each
night, making the run into New
York City. Not only is it believed
that such a train would prove popu-
lar with those who desire to spend
the afternoon and evening at the
seashore, but would also become
popular with those who leave this
city at a late hour for New York or
Newark.
