He was brilliant English scholar, be- sides being familiar with French, Ger man and Spanish, and his rapid promo ton in the service probably is due to his linguistic abilities, as he was en- abled to act as interpreter in many in- stances.

SOUTHERN TO LAY OFF ONE HUNDRED SH0PMEN
 MERIDIAN SATURDAY

Meridian, Miss, March SO.- -(Special) Rumors current today that the south ern railways New Orleans and North eastern shops were to shut down in definitely were denied by the master mechanic, C. l.. Bunch. He stated how ever, that many more men are to be laid off Saturday of this week.
 The exact number of men to leave the shops is not given, but 1t is re- ported that it will probably not ex ceed 100. This number, in addition to the large number laid off during the past two or three months, reduces the force very materially and bears out the idea that for time only enough men are to be kept at work to take care of the actual needs in order to maintain such rolling stock as is now in operation.

 By making poultry raising a business and by knowing her business, Mrs R, L. Hanks of Cato. Pulaski county. Arkansas has been able to make almost the entire living for her family during the past year from the sale of eggs and culls from her flock.
 Her receipts from eggs were $500 and from the sale of roosters and non-pro- ducers another slOO was received. making total of s9oO.
 The total cost of initial investment in her flock and their feed for the year was less than S4oO, leaving q net profit of over $500. and flock of over 200 producing hens for her first years effort. Next year she will keep close watch with the aid of trap nests, and make each hen a more profitable investment.
 Her hens laid nearly as many eggs during the winter as they did last sum mer consequently her profits were great CT than are those who do not feed and care properly for the hens in winter sea son.

Ire poultry raiser must know when hen does not pay her board and why. Is it feed. water housing or lack of ability to lay that makes the hen un- pl otftable? These things are determined by the records kept
 Gre of the most noticeable features of the Hanks farm is the poultry house and the chicken run. A 40-foot run is ar ranged between the yard and the chicken house. Upon inspection it is found that the poultry equipment consists of many profitable layers.
 The poultry house is comfortable, warm well ventilated with a south ex- posture and is rat-proof. A dry mash is always found in the run with plenty of litter to mako the search for the scratch feed interesting and profitable, Hens left to dig fer themselves with only scraps from the table and barn can not give re- turns in egg production that are given by the flock that has good attention.
 FEED ! Early each morning the chickens are given a light feed of scratch grains with easy access to dry mash and crushed oyster shells always. Evenings they are given all the scratch grains they will pick up readily
 Mrs. Hanks attributes her success to standard bred stock, well housed and carefully attended and proper feeding of we'll balanced scratch feed and egg mash, combination necessary for maximum egg rroduction.

No, the truth is more prosaic. Truth
