Baltimore, Md.-Attorney General
Daugherty, who has been in Baltimore
for short while, expressed his appro-
baton of the appointment of former
President William H. Taft as chief
Justice of the United States. He de-
clared this appointment had received
probably more universal commendae
ton than any appointment ever made
by a president.
Probably no appointment ever
made by the president" Mr.. Daugh.
erty said, has received the universal
commentator that the appointment Of
former President Taft as chief justice
has received. Many kilograms and let.
tiers have been received by the presi-
dent and by the department of justice
since the death Of Chief Justice White
and at least 80 or IS per cent OF them
have been favorable to the appoint
ment of Mr.. Taft as chief justice.

now are seeking to have made per-
manent.

DEMPSEY BEATS CARPENTER.
Lands Knockout Blow After Minute
is Seconds of Fiqht.

Ringside, Jersey City, N. with
the memory of three crunching blows,
those punches that only Jack Demp-
sey propels, wildly before him Georges
Carpenter, the champion Of Europe,
may now return heavily laden with
American money to France and tell Of
this history-making battle, in which
the worlds champion knocked him
out cold in the fourth round. The fin
ish came just one minute and 16 Sec
onds after the gong had started them
into action in this session.
1t was a great fight. It was a great
Dempsey, and 1t was a great Carpen-
tier and in this wonderful stadium
which Tex Richard planted in Jersey
City as monument to pugilism there
were something like 10000 spectators.
It was battle in which thrill followed
thrill almost as rapidly as machine
gun splits its deadly fire.

OVERTIME IS CUT OUT ON
 GOVERNMENT RAILROAD AND
 INEFFICIENT MEN ARE TO GO

With the exception of times of necessity all overtime work is be ing cut out on the Government rail road and also men who are not 1 loyal to their work are to be dis charged. This is according to a statement recently made by William ! Gcrig, assistant Chief Engineer for the A. E. C. The statement issued at Anchorage is as follows:
 On account of closing down the seasons work, it has been necessary to lay off large number of men and many of these will and should re- main in Anchorage and Seward for the winter as there is no work in the States; in fact, the question of the unemployed in the States is becoming so serious that both outgoing and incoming administrations are trying to devise ways and means to alleviate it.
 We want to employ all men here that can be efficiently used. and Tor that reason it will be necessary to exclude all overtime from the field On this wark Heads of departments, superintendents and foremen in the field are hereby instructed that be- ginning January 1, 1921, no overtime work will be done except in the mechanical, transportation and dock departments, where overtime work is absolutely necessary on account ol the eXigency of the work.
 Before any overtime work is under taken. except in extreme emergencies. nernission must be obtained from this office. However if this office cannot be reached and it is nece5- sary to save life or property, overtime can be worked but it must be report ed immediately.
 All concerned are instructed to weed out the inefficient. those who will not do fair days work, and are not loyal, and employ men who are willing to work. No doubt many men in the States will work their way up here and un1uostiona biy there will be a still greater stAplus of labor in this vicinity

CANCEL" OF SENATE PAGES
Political Opponents of Senator EiIeins
Aver He Is Appearing in En-
tireIy New Light.

When Senator Phelan of California
retired from the senate there was an
air of gloom around the haunts of the
pages on the Democratic side which
couldn't be dispelled. The California
senator has been the official angel of
the pages for years and he had seen
to 1t that they got tickets for baseball
games and such things. Being page
without having an angel is hardly
worth while.
About this time Senator tDavis Ell
kins of West Virginia heard about the
desperate situation of these boys and
declared he would be the official angel
for the suffering pages. Since Senator
Elkins is supposed to own lot of coal
mines and oil wells and perhaps rail-
road here and there, if they haven't
been mislaid lately. nobody could make
grander angel and the pages see be-

CULTIVATE POTATOES OFTEN
Heeins Should Be Done Once a Week
for Six Weeks After Plants
Appear-kill Bugs.

Potatoes must be hoed or cultivated
at least once a week for about six
weeks after the plants appear. While
cultivating the soil should be drawn
about the plants, forming hills to pro
tect the potatoes from the sun.
Potato bugs, old-fashioned "hard
shells and their children. the soft
shells or slugs, are. sure to eat the
foliage of potatoes unless prevented
from doing so. The "hard shell" bugs
that are first to appear can often be
picked Off by hand and killed, but
about the only way to control the
young soft bugs or slugs is to poison
them. This can be done by spraying
or sprinkling the potato leaves with
a mixture consisting of one ounce Of
arsenate of lead in one gallon of wa
ter or the plants may be busted with
powdered lime to which paris green
has been added at the rate of one
ounce to four quarts of lime, say spe
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The dust should
be sifted over the plants during the
early morning while the dew is upon
the leaves 1t will not be necessary
to dust or spray all the plants, but
only those where the bugs have start
ed. then go over the potatoes every
few days to see that the bugs have
not gotten fresh start. W

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
or all grain feeds usually supplied
to farm poultry, corn has been. and
still is, the most popular. This prob
ably is due to its abundance and rel
ative' cheapness, and because it is the
most relished of all the grains. Corn
Is heating and fattening, and when
fed to fowls as the only feed fat rath-
er than eggs is the usual result. 1t
should be balanced with meat, bone,
bran, and such. feeds as are rich in
nitrogenous matter, in which corn is
deficient. When corn is fed to laying
hens that have opportunity to take
plenty of exercise and to obtain in
sects and green feed, more satisfac-
tory results are likely to be obtained.
1t may be fed more freely during the
winter than during the summer, say
poultry specialists of United States
Department of Agriculture.
Wheat Is Safest.
Wheat is generally regarded as the
safest grain to be fed alone. 1t Is
not quite SO fattening as corn, but is
too fattening when fed alone. Wheat
should be supplemented by the same
feeds as advised to use with corn to
Increase the proportion of protein.
Wheat contains little more protein
than corn, about the same amount of
carbohydrates, but less fat, and on
the whole is considered not so valu-
able Tor fattening, but slightly better
for growth. Good .grades of wheat
are relatively too high in price to
be used freely in feeds at the pres
ent time. Wheat screenings of
good grade can frequently be pur-
chased and fed to advantage. OF
course, there is always the danger Of
Introducing weed seeds on the farm.
Burnt wheat" seldom can be fed ad-
vantageously, the difference in price
between this and good wheat being
usually too slight to warrant its use.
Oats Needed for Variety. T.
Oats, while not as good as corn or
wheat, are necessary for variety.
They contain more indigestible fiber
than the other grains. Hulled oats
are relished by poultry and are excel

lent for producing eggs, but are usual
ly too expensive. When they can be
obtained at reasonable price in COM
parison with other grains they may be
fed quite freely.
Barley does not seem to be relished
by hens, but may be used to give va
riety to the grain ration. 1t has lit
tie more protein than corn and little
less than oats.
Buckwheat is quite liked by fowls,
but is not widely fed. It may be used
to vary the ration, but is usually too
high in price to be economical. Buck
wheat middlings are rich in protein
and make good mixture with corn
meal.
Rye is not fed largely. and does not
seem to be much relished by poultry.
It is supposed to cause bowel trouble
when fed freely.
