DERRICK MAY LOSE OUT
AS N. ]. PRISON MANAGER

TRENTON, Dec. 20:-Although
Calvin Derrick has been acting as
prison manager since August 1 as
the result of his appointment grow
ing out of the investigation conduct
cd at the institution last spring,
there is a possibility that he may be
succeeded by William j.. Ellis, of this
city, a veteran of the World War,
who also passed the recent civil SER
vice test held for the position. Both
men are closely affiliated with the
State Department of Institutions and
Agencies which conducted the probe
and which forced the appointment
Of the manager despite the objection
of Warden Joseph S. Hoff.
Derrick was taken from his post
as head of the Jamesburg Boys
Home and put in the prison job at
81, 500 q year with $1,000 mainte-
nance. This was done by Commits
sioner Of Institutions Burdette G..
Lewis with the approval of e. p.
Earle, of Montclair, president of the
board which presides over that de-
partment. Ellis has been in the de-
partment for five years and has had
charge of the division of classical
ton and education. Derrick and
Ellis were the only candidates who
passed the examination. Two others
failed. Derrick's average was 1920
and that of Ellis 1890.

new POLICE CALL SYSTEM
IS NOW IN WORKING ORDER

The real value Of the new police
system installed at local headquar-
ters was shown last night after Lieu
tenant Andrew Jensen had received
a call from the Linden police re-
porting an automobile fatality at
that place. As soon as the officers
on duty rang their respective boxes,
the lieutenant was successful in
notifying them of the incident. so
that they could be on the lookout
for the driver of a big touring car
believed to be n Nit hell. The driv-
err failed to stop and the victim when
picked up, was dead. II is believed
the driver of the death car" took
another route as it did not pass
through this city.
At the request of the Gamewe1l
company representatives, Chief
Tonnesen has ordered all his patrol
men to call the lieutenant from their
last box before reporting off duty
each day. In this way, all of the
police telephones about the town
will be kept in running order.

Orpen 202: Quakenbus 1877 and Kali
teissen 1875. Without considering the
referred ballots in this poll Orpen

Kalteissen and five Orpen votes re-
ferred. If all of Kalteissen's re-
ferred votes are counted and none
of Orpen's counted, Orpen will have
gained four. 1t seems likely, how
ever, that some of "OPENS referred
votes will be counted, thus boosting
his gain.
The firt poll of Middlesex borough
originally gave Dey, 81; Orpen, S2;
Quakenbush, SO, and Kalteissen, 61.

be learned for a certainty which
candidate is ahead in the recount.
The second poll of Rarltan orig
inally CAV William S. Dey, 225; Or
pen 25S; Walter Quakenbush 22S,
gave Dey 1922; Orpen 255; Quaken-

were ten Republican and six Demo-
crati; votes referred.
The third poll of Raritan in the

131. The recount gave each can
didata one vote less than the original
count. There were four Republican
and three Democratic ballots re-
ferred.
In the fourth poll of Raritan a
gain of four votes for Orpen is as
sured with the possibility OF boost
Ing this to nine when the court

FEED HENS TO INCREASE
SUMMER EGG PRODUCTION

The spring egg production might be
prolonged and moulting delayed, IN
many cases, if the hens are properly
fed during the early summer months,
advises Clara NJ. Suffer, extension
specialist in poultry at State college.
"When the hens have exhausted
the supply Of green feed, scattered
grains and seeds found on the range
in the spring, dry mash should be
placed in hoppers where the hens can
help themselves. Whole grain should
not be fed in the morning, as that Is
the time when the hens should be
foraging; give a full feed of whole
grain bcfUfn L @ I n
is available, furnish all that the hens
will eat. Do not change from sweet
che day to sour the next, for this
sudden change often causes digestive
troubles.
Each dozen egg shells has an ay-
erage weight of two and one-quarter
ounces of lime, which means that the
hen must have more than that, for
some is used in the body growth.
Plenty of grit or gravel should be
furnished as grit is the hens teeth
and she cannot digest her feed with
out it. Since the hen, in making an
egg, uses 70 parts water to 80 of solid
matter, she needs all the fresh, clean
water that she cares to drink.
IF the hens are too fat and are
not laying they are either too old,
poor layers, or have too many grains,
and not enough proteins (meat, milk,
tankage, ~insects) to furnish the whites
of the egg"

Washington, d. c., has set up a new
speed record. A man was hanged
five years after he committed a
murder.
A German steel and iron manufact-
uring concern recently declared a divi-
dend Of 1,045 per cent. It's annual
report stated that its net profit las
wear showed an increase of fifty-fold.
1t was the knowledge of such condi-
tions that induced the French to take
over the Ruhr. The German claim Of
inability to pay is apparently not
borne out by the facts.
Very nearly $4,000 farm girls were
enrolled in 1929 in the bread club
conducted by cooperative extension
workers, according to reports to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, and they baked during the year
415,000 loaves of bread. II
other words, $4,000 girls learned b,
practice, last year, what it takes T.
make a good loaf of bread and how t.
make it.

The Test of Good Management

Buried in dry statistics of the Department of Commerce lie
facts in connection with the packing industry that may bring
pause to those disposed to hasty criticism. While the whole
story of this industry is not told sufficient facts are disclosed
to show that the packers have not had such a rosy time during
the year 1921. 1t appears that the value of the products of
wholesale s%laughterers amounted to $4,000 942, 600 in 1921 as
compared with $4,246, 291 900 for the year 1919, a decrease of
60 per cent. True the business increased 33 per cent over the
seven year period, but a sudden slump in one year of approx
mately 2000,000,0 900 presents a financial and economic prob
lem of sufficient proportion to throw the best managed business
IN the world out of gear.
It is a remarkable tribute to the management of the packing
industry that the gigantic drop in the volume of business did
not bring about impossible conditions in the retail market. Our
wives may have complained of rising prices, perhaps at times
they may have been justified, but they received the protection
Z ONE very able business brains remains undisputed.
? le packers have been under heavy fire. but fair play is a
Jewel. and while this newspaper fighting ALWAYS in the public
interest is ever ready to throw the light Of publicity on condi.
tons when they appear to be vicious. it is equally fearless and
equally pleased to offer a word of praise when it is so obviously
deserved, as it is in this case.
