He sketched the scene when
Mrs. Renaker rushed out Of the
home which she had just enter

that Renaker was dead.
He pointed out certain alleged
discrepancies in Hardmans sto-

The Pennsylvania department OF
agriculture has just published lot OF
interesting information about the or
| igin and consumption of commercial
| fertilizer, in which it states that the
fertilizer men have more than $500
100000 invested in mines, plants and
| equipment. 1t further says that a com
| plete modern, fireproof plant, of 10000
| tons capacity, stands for an invest
me1t of about 100000 South Car
DINA is said to be the largest fer
| tilizer-consuming state in the country
1t requires approximately $4,000
tons of chemicals to supply the annual
| demand for fertilizer in the United

| 600 tons, consisting mostly of cotton
| seed meal, packinghouse tankage, fist
| scrap, blood meal and some garbage
| tankage, processed leather and othel
waste products.
Prevention of Roup
Prevention is always better thar
cure and this is especially true of roul
in the poultry flock Roup is a con
| tagious disease which infects al
classes of fowls, but it can be Ere
| vented, according to A ]. Durant, o.
the Missouri college of agriculture in
| his new bulletin devoted to this dread
| infection. Prof Durant says:
There are three forms of this dis
ease-one with swelling around the
eyeball, and enlargement of the bird:
head. Another is diphtheritic, show
| ing canker-like sores in the mouth
and throat The third form Of rour
is the so-called chicken-pox, in which
| sores or scabs form on the comb, wat
ties and bare parts Of the head.
Proper management in feeding and
housing the flock are the most i'm
portant measures in the control oil
roup. The medicinal treatment is moi
advisable unless the birds are OF
