WITH THE CITY'S SUBMERGED
Pathetic Side of Life Which the Aver
age Visitor to a Metropolis
Does Not See.

In the rancid dusk of Bryant park
directly back of the public library
there gathers each evening motley
gathering of the dregs of great city,
writes the New York correspondent of
the indianapolis News. 1t is a park,
but there is heavy odor of gasoline
from the fine linOusines to the east
and smell of cooking from the battery
of cheap restaurants on the west.
It seems to be the mecca of those
who have lost hope, the jObless, the
idler-men with scowllng predatory
visages and case-hardened leers. A
short while back and they were to b
found In the "fOprOOmS' in the rear OF
the barrel houses on Sixth avenue. In
the opaque yellow glare of the park
lights they puff pipes and study the
Help Wanted" columns.
There is scanty conversation and
what there is consists mostly Of the
unprintable word. Now and then there
is a youthful face set in an adaman-
tine mask of determination. 1t is easy
to see things are new 10 lneln ana Ihey
have been temporarily cOwed by the
higness and hardness Of the city.
There are a few women sprinkled
among the bench-warmers. Some are
old and bloated, with clothing greasy
and foul. A few are young, the
glamor of sin reflected in their gar
ments. Their furtive eyes seem ever
I'm quest Of a blue uniform.
The most pathetic side of the eve
ming array in Bryant park is the
brOOding silence. One may almost
feel the terrible, depressing thoughts.
Only a few blocks away is the light
ness of Broadway where the froth Of
life is churned to an iridescent foam.
| sat for a half hour on a bench
with a group of the floating riff-raff.
Not a word had been spoken until one
seedy bulk of humanity arose slowly
with a yaWn, his fat jOwl jutting out.
"AnOther -- Che ripped out an oath
with the velocity of forked lightning)
day finished. l hope there won't be
any more" And he shambed off.

Baby chicks should not be fed for
from "a 10 80 hours after Matching,
and will not suffer If given no feed
until the third day. The yolk of the

when Matching furnishes all the nour-
ishment required during that time.
After the third day they should be fed
four or five times daily for the first
week or ten days, but they should be
given only what they will eat up clean
each time. Overlooking will do more
harm than underfeeding. Greater care
must be used not to overfeed young
chicks that are confined than those
that have free range, as leg weakness
is apt to result in those confined.
The first feed should consist of
iohnnyc0ke or bard-boiled eggs mixed
with stale-bread crumbs or pinhead

THE THOUSAND ISLANDS
BY 7. T. MAxEY

THE River St. Lawrence AS grand
L as the Rhine, was discovered by
a French explorer in 1885. In 1915,
Champlain explored the upper reaches
Of this majestic stream and discovered
these Islands.
The origin Of the name is evident
to the beholder. Below Lake Ontario
for distance of some forty miles the
river broadens to width ranging
from four to seven miles. Here begins
this world-famous archipelago. These
islands-sometimes in string like
links in chain-again in just pell-
nell confusion, appear to block the
channel. Apparently there are a
thousand of them. Some authorities
assert there are as many us 100.
Composed mainly of rock or granite,
their surfaces are not high. Some
are no larger than to provide foun-
dalton for a house-the largest con-
tains about 10000 acres. Many are
privately owned and here man and
his money have created castles which
look as wondrous as fairy tales sound.
The Thousand Islands were the
scene of some hot conflicts between
nations-Indlan wars (when this
region was known MS Manatoana-Ga
den of the Great SPIRIT, contests be-
tween the French and the English
and battles of Revolutionary fame.
To this generation, however, they
are more prominently known for their
acknowledgements beauty and I'M
questioned charm.

the poults whenever they run to her,
which they will do If they become
chilled, The greatest care should be
taken to keep the interior of the coop
dry, and for this reason it is advisable
to choose a sandy slope where the
water runs off quickly and where there
Is also protection from heavy rains.
If necessary, the mother-hen can be
confined to roomy coop for week
or more, provided she is properly fed
and watered, and the coop moved to
fresh ground every day.
II the weather Is warm and dry, as
frequently happens when the poults
are Matched late in the season, no
shelter Is required, as they do better
In the open; but 1t is advisable to
keep them within q fenced Enclosure
for the first three or four days until
they are strong enough to follow the
mother. Weather conditions being ia
vorable, the hen and brood can be
given free range after the third or
fourth day, but care should be taken
to keep them out of heavy dews and
to protect them from rain for the first
two or three weeks. After this early
morning dews or light showers fol
lowed closely by warm sunshine will
do little harm, as the poults soon become
warm and dry. If cold, damp weather
sets In, however, they will need to be
kept In dry quarters, for nothing Is
more fatal to young poults than wet
and cold.
When about six weeks old, the young
turkeys are old enough to go to roost.
Practically all turkey raisers allow
the birds to roost in the open trees or
on fences or other roosts especially
provided for them. In sections where
high winds prevail, It Is customary to
build the roosts next to barn or shed,
where there Is some protection. When
this is done posts are driven into the
ground and poles laid across them four
Of five feet from the ground BY driving
them to the roosting place and feeding
them there every evening just before
dark young turkeys can be made to
roost wherever desired. For the first
few times 1t is sometimes necessary
to keep them under the roost until
dark, but they will finally fly up, and
after week or so will no longer have
to be driven, but will come up every
night to be fed and to roost
During the summer and early fall
turkeys can find an abundance Of feed
on the average farm. Grasshoppcrs
and other insects, weed and grass
seeds, green vegetation, berries, and
grain picked up in the fields all go to
make up the turkeys daily ration.
When this natural feed Is plentiful
very little need be added until fatten.

bringing the turkeys every night to

"THE ELECTRIC SHIP
By T. T.MAXEY

THE NEW MEXICO was the first
L battleship constructed in the
United States, to be propelled by
electricity.
This ship is 624 feet long, weighs
$4,000 tons and from the wUter-line
to the top of the mast is as high as
n ten-story building.
To drive it q knots an hour re-
qures 2S,0O0 horse power. Her oil
burning engines are fed from tanks
which carry approximately 100000
gallons Of oil, It's nine boilers pro-
duce 10000 horse power of steam
energy. This steam turns two tur-
bines which develop $4,000 horse
power. These turbines are marvellous
savers Of fuel and space, Each tur-
bine is connected to IN electric gen.
orator, Each generator produces
10000 horse power of electrical
energy.
Huge cables carry this current to
the control board from which the en-.
gineer operates the ship. From this
point this power is sent to four giant
motors of 1000 horse power each
one of which is attached to each pro
peller shaft.
LET electricity do IT, Is the motto
on the New Mexico. Electricity re

Plenty Of exercise is essential II the
turkey poults are to thrive, say poul-
Try specialists OF the United States
Department of Agriculture. At all
times when rain or dampness does
not prevent, the poults should be al
lowed to run in and out of the coop
at will. Too much stress cannot be
given to the necessity of exercise, and
the only way to provide for this is
to allow the poults at every possible
opportunity to range for feed outside
the coop. During a long-continued
rainy season it is better to allow them
to run out of the coop whenever 1t is
not actually raining, even though the
grass is somewhat damp.

where It will not be wasted, and left
before the chicks at all times.
AS soon us the chickens are old
enough and will eat whole wheat,
cracked corn, or other grains, the
smaIl-sized chick feed may be discon-
tInucd and the larger-slzed grains fed
instead In addition to the grain feed,
they must be supplied with grit, oyster
shell, md charcoal at all times, and
the better way is to place these In a
hopper, hanging 1t in convenient
place where the chicks may help them
selves. If chicks are kept in contine-
ment, they must be furnished liberal
supply Of tender, green feed, like
lawn clippings, lettuce leaves, and
such other things MS may be available.
Whenever possible, however, chicks
should be given grass range when
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 hnstcned considerably
by giving them sour milk to drink.
Chickens are very fond Of milk In any
form and viii eat and drink liberal
supply Of 1t. It 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
