HIGGANUM MAN FOUND
 MURDERED IN GOTHAM
F. W. Earle Lured to Roof of Building, Slain and
 Robbed

New York, Oct LF-The body of man believed by the police to be Frederick w. Earle of Higganum. Conn, was found early today on the roof of four-story tenement, occu- pied by Negro families, in West 13Sth street. His skull had been crushed by a brick.
 The man, whose pockets had been turned inside out, was lured to the roof by negress and killed by her acomplices. the police believe.
 The body was found by the driver of q milk wagon, who had made de- liveries in the house and was cross ing the roof to the adjoining build ing.
 An ambulance surgeon said the man had probably been dead five hours. Mrs. Lillian Isill, a ncgrcss. who lives on the top floor, told de- tectives she had heard footsteps on the roof early today followed by q sound of a scuffle ten minutes later. The sound ceased, she said, and she did not investigate.
 A Fedora hat evidently worn by the victim bore the name Of Hart ford. Conn, firm. His empty wallet had the initials "F. W. E." on the outside. Police also found an in surance policy issued to Frederick w. Earle by Hartford insurance company on August 2 covering au- tomobile liability in the amount of s1G,0o0.
 Higganum, Conn. Oct. 2 fP}- Frederick W. Earle who was killed in New York last night, lived with his mother and step-father Mr. and Mrs, Howard l. Spencer. here. He had been employed in town al car bonatcd beverage bottling works all summer and yesterday left for New York with the intention of attending the ball game.
 The first information that came to the family that he was dead was through telephone call from the New York police. Mir. Spencer with Rev. MT. Pickering of this town told the police that they would leave al once for New York to claim the body. No information came to them as to the exact manner of Earle's death.
 Earle served four years in the navy prior to returning home for the summer. He was well spoken of by those who knew him here.

EIGHTH GRADE COMMENCEMENT
AT NO. G SCHOOL

The commencement exercises of
Lynch's School District, No. 6, were
held Thursday, June 3rd. There were
four graduates: Marguerite Donovan,
Hazel Donovan, Lillian Lindale and
Beatrice Atkins. A very interesting
program was rendered. The grad
yates read some very interesting es-
says. The subjects were why I
Want to go to High School" and
''The Two Most Important Aims in
Life" Rev. Thornton complimented
the class on their splendid compost
tions and gave a very interesting
talk on the selection of a vocation in
youth. He presented the diplomas to
the class. The teacher, Mrs. Laura
C. Walls, presented Rev. and Mrs.
Thornton with a large chocolate
cake, given by the class of 1926 as a
token of appreciation of his splen-
did words of advice. The graduates
then sang a very beautiful selection

two weeks old they will take to the
roosts voluntarily and in this man
ner much time may be saved in tea
ching the young chicks to use them.
These perches should be constructed
step-ladder fashion with the lower
perch resting on the floor three feet
from the rear wall, and the top perch
placed against the back wall fifteen
inches above the floor. 1t is also ad-
visable to place one inch mesh wire
below these perches to prevent the
chicks from falling through or
crowding underneath.
Another very important thing to
remember is to keep the brooder
house at the proper temperature, and
do not be in too big hurry to take
the heat away from the young
chicks. 1t is true that on hot days
they do not need the heat, but dur
ing the nights and cool days they
will crowd and cause considerable
damage to themselves if the room is
cold and damp.
Now that the warm weather is
here, one of the chief problems is to
keen the broOder house cool enough
during the heat of the day, so it is
suggested that a. thermometer be
hung in the house against the side
wall about four feet above the floor
as a guide in regulating the temper
ature. 1t may be necessary on some
warm days to open the windows dur
ing the hot period of the day in or
der to keep the temperature of the
house as near 20 degrees Farenheit
as possible at all times.
Mr.. Palmer also stressed the ne
cessity of sanitation in the laying
and brooder houses, and the atten-
ton of the poultrymen is being call
ed repeatedly to the Importance of
keeping the chickens free from lice
and mites. This is a good time of the
year to thoroughly clean and disin-
feet the laying house by removing all
the perches and nests and scraping
the manure from them. Following
this operation the house should be
SPRAYED with a solution of carbolie
acid at the strength of 13 table
spoonfuls to l gallon of water. At
ter cleaning and spraying the house
the nests and perches should be
painted with old crank case oil or
corbolineum at full strength. One
treatment like this at the present
time followed by another one in Au-
gust will insure the house against
mites for the year.
The brooder house should be clean
ed at least once a week and fresh
sand and litter placed on the floor.
At each cleaning operation the house
should be sprayed with carbolic
acid solution, as recommended above

GOOD AVERAGE YIELD
In EGG CONTEST
tcontinued from nrst Dags)

he suggests the following feeding
schedule during the summer months
based on flocks of 100 birds laying
so eggs per day:
6 a. m. Scratch feed, lbs, con-
sisting of equal parts or cracked
corn and wheat ;also plenty of fresh
water in clean drinking vessels.
z a. m. Dry laying mash in hop
pers, II lbs, and provide for enough
hopper space for one half of the
number of birds to eat at one time.
8 a. m. Green feed, lbs. This feed
should consist of such crops as al
falfa, rape, kale or Swiss chard and
similar plants.
2 D. m. Wet mash, qts. In pre-
pairing this mash it is suggested that
4 lbs. dry mash, lb. semi-solid but
termilk and 2 lbs. freshly cut greens
be used. 1t is also advisable to give
the chickens more fresh water at
this time of the day.
6 p. m. Scratch feed, 6 lbs. The
amount to give the birds at this
feeding, however, is determined
largely by their appetites, as it is
never advisable to let grain accumu-
late on the floor or on the ground.
AS a conditioning mash not only
puts flesh on the birds, but it also
stimulates production, it is recon-
mended that such a feed be given to
birds that are lean and out of con-
dition due to heavy laying or sick
ness during the past winter months.
The following mash formula has
been giving excellent results:
/ lb. rolled oats
l lb. yellow corn meal
l lb. semi-solid buttermilk
This amount of mash IS enough for
100 hens, and it may be fed at two
O'Clock in the afternoon in place of
the regular wet mash previously
mentioned in this report.
In the care of the growing chicks
it is well to remember that they
should be taught to roost just as
soon as they find it comfortable to
remain away from the hover over
night. If young chicks are allowed to
huddle in the corners on the floor
they will become over-heated which
will result in a poor growth. Dirty
and worn wing and tail feathers are
indications of the chicks crOwding
at night, and such conditions should
be remedied at once by the building
of suitable roosts.
If the perches are placed in the
brooder house when the chicks are

their strawberry shipment and for
two weeks they kept a long stream
of trucks going north. AS their crop
dwindled the Maryland and Delaware
berries began to ripen and for the
last two weeks to ten days they have
been on in force. The truck traffic
has increased in a manner which, on
comparative basis, makes it appear
that it will go over 100 per cent in
volume as compared with 1925, be-
fore the main shipping season is pas
sed.
Records show approximately 1896
trucks weighed in Delaware in 1924,
from May l to October 81, hauling
crops from the lower peninsula. In
1925, 4,422 trucks are listed in the
report of the truck transportation,
and the record at this date for 1926,
including the hauling of greens,
shows that there have been approx
imately 5000 trucks already weighed.
Naturally the figures for this year
include a portion of the heaviest
shipping crop, but even allowing for
this, the decided growth in the use
of trucks is considered impressive.
Both growers and shippers talking
of the increased truck hauling of
crops point out that with the COM
pleted highway system it is now
possible to reach the Wilmington,
Chester and Philadelphia markets in
seven to eight hours from the lower
peninsula and the Baltimore and
New York markets in twelve to thir-
teen hours. They claim that berries
picked as far south as Caple Charles,
Va, one morning may be eaten for
breakfast the following morning in
New York.
