B. F. KEITH'S-Faversham il
Sutro Playlet,

| Keith patrons this week are having
| the pleasure OF witnessing little ro-
mantle play of much cleverness by AL
! fred Sutro, with no less distinguish
ed star than William Faversham, who
still seems the same as of yore both In
looks and in the skill with which he
deity deals with dramatic plots. Shar-
ing full honors with him Is Miss Helen
Daube in the little playlet. in which
needy young woman. makes clear to
a retired millionaire how well they
may travel life's road together. The
playlet is entitled "a Marriage Has
Been Arranged" 1t is not sensational
or thrilling, but clever in its every
line, and, needless to add, it Is played
for all 1T is worth.
The audience last night also had
lots of applause for Barney Fagan.
Lizzie Wilson, Corinne and Joe Sulli-
van in STARS of Yesterday" the vet
eran Fagan being especially honored.
Harry Burns, with Charles Fena and

laughter. The eight whir1tng Arabs
open the bill with a clever athletic
act; Nate Leipzig follows with mysti-
flying tricks with the cards; Charlotte

cial songs: Burns and Lynn, a lot of
foolish songs and dances, and Donald

DESTROY sTICK-TIGHT FLEAS
II Is Necessary to Clean and Spray
Houses and Runs as Well as
Treat the Fowls.

"Stick-tight" fleas breed in the
cracks and creviees of brood and
poultry houses; also in dry animal or
vegetable refuse, but will not breed
in damp or wet places; therefore, to
get rid Of them 1t is necessary to clean
and spray the houses and runs thor
oughly as well as treat the birds, say
poultry specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Grease the comb and wattles Of the
fowls and chicks with a preparation
Of kerosene and lard-one part kero-
sene to three parts of lard-being
very careful not to use too much Of
the mixture Or get any Of 1t In the
birds eyes or on other places where
It is not necessary, as it may cause
injury if used too freely.
Clean and spray the coops and
houses thoroughly the same as for
poultry mites; also wet or spray the
yards or runs, especially any dry soil
about the poultry h0uses, such as dirt
floors or the ground underneath a
board floor, with a solution of salt
and water, which helps to keep the
ground moist and prevents the fieas
from breeding.

DIFFERENT BREEDS or HENS
Leahorns and Minoreas Are Best for
Eggs, but Are Poor S~ltters-Brah-
mas Best for Meat.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Chickens, for convenience, may be
classified as egg breeds, meat breeds,
general-purpose breeds, and fancy or
ornamental breeds.
The egg breeds include the small or
medium-sized fowls which are very ac-
tive, quick to mature, producers Of
white-shelled eggs, usually nonsitters
or at best but poor s~itters, and rather
poor mothers, say poultry specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. The varieties of Leghorns
and Minorcas are good representatives
of this class. Because they are poor
sitters some other breed, or at least a
few other fowls, should be kept If nat
ural methods of incubation are to be
employed. On account Of their early
maturity 1t is not uncommon for indi
yiduals of the egg breeds to begin lay,
ing at the age Of four and one-half
months. These breeds do not fatten
as readily under ordinary conditions
as the larger and less active breeds.
and are rather sensitive to low tenn
perature because of their large combs
and wattles.
The largest fowls, represented in
the meat class, are especially suitable
for the production of large r~oasters.
They are slow and somewhat sluggish
in movement, have little desire for
~foraging, are easily confined by low
fences, rather slow to mature, persist
ent s%itters, and rather Indifferent lay
ers of brown-shelled eggs. Many poul-
trymen, however, ire getting very fail

Langshans and Cochins may be men
Toned as belonging to this class.
The general purpose breeds includ,
fowls which are Of fair size and which
will also produce a good quantity OF
brown-shelled eggs, making them es-
pecially adapted to the person wish
ing a supply of both eggs and meat,
AS one has to make frequent sales Of
flesh In the shape of surplus cockerels
and hens, the carcass as well as egg
production should be considered. The
general-purpose breeds are usually
good sitters and good mothers. They
have medium-sized combs and wattles
and endure cold weather well. They

GIVE CHICKENS FREE RANGE
Growing Fowls Are Enabled to Obtain
Quantities Of Bugs, Worms,
Green Feed, Etc.

When the garden crops have reached
maturity or r far enough developed
to suffer little damage from chickens
the flock should be given free range
There are times In late summer and
early fall when the benefit received
by the poultry will exceed the slight
injury ONE garden products may In
cur.
Free range enables growing chick
ems to obtain quantities of green feed,
bugs, worms and other things. The
chickens therefore require less grain
and are less liable to sickness or dis
ease. Exercise and ability to range
for ever a few hours a day is bene-
fetal to a flock that has been kept
In confinement during spring and early
summer.

CONTROL OF LICE AND MITES
Dust Bath VIII Aid Materially, but
Should Not Be Depended
Upon Entirely.

While it is well to provide a good
dust bath for chickens, 1t cannot be
depended upon for louise and mite
control, say specialists of the United
States Department Of Agriculture. It
is far better to eradicate the pests
completely. The main difficulty about
depending upon dust baths is that
some fowls seldom dust themselves,
and those which dust freely never
completely free themselves Of Ice. The
dust bath should be kept under cover
and may consist Of fine road dust with
coal ashes added.

In these experiments the roosts and

Of the house were thoroughly painted
or sprayed just before the fowls went
to roOst, and all doors, windows, and
ventilators were closed during the first
night. Five badly infested fowls were
used In each test, and at the end of
n week examination was made for
living lice. Although an occasional
dead louise was found on the dropping
boards, In NO case was the treatment
Of any practical value. Since many
Of these preparations were found to
be effective when used as fumigants
in small boxes, 1t is apparent that the
ineffectiveness of house treatment is
due to the fact that the fumes do not
become concentrated enough to kill the
lice. Tests were also made with lime
sulphur applied in the same way; this
also was found to be of no value.

There have been many advocates Of
the theory that chicken lice can be
killed by painting the roosts and drop

the poultry house with various oil mix
lures, the idea being that the vapors

penetrate the feathers of the roosting

WATCH HATCHING DUCK EGGS

empty shells telescope yer eggs Just

Fifteen turkey hens can safely be
