SUNSHINE AIDS
IN EGG LAYING

Tests made at different experiment
stations as we'll as the results Of prac-
teal poultrymen have demonstrated
that Direct sunshine serves two use
full purposes 1t not only helps the
hen to see but It also enables her
to mane proper use Of the minerals
In her ration. This is especially true
Of the nme that Is used In making egg
shells IN young chickens the effect
Is noticed In the formation of bones.
Chicks not getting sunshine develop
leg weakness due to poor assimilation
Of MINERALS In the ration.
Hens hdpt II houses that r ep-
tirefy closed with dass windows do
not ct tbe beneficial influence Of the
sunshtnA because glass does not al
low ~ ultraviolet rays 10 pass
thnoosA md thaU are the nays that
carry ~ power q helping In the n-
sin0at1oo Of the minerals. 1t r. a
good pa&n, therefore, to provide the
hens with outdde scratching lots
where Ucyf al JET the sunshine IL
Is also 4 good plan to put some OF the
glass substitutes which allow the ul-
tra-voaet rays to pass through, in
some Of the windows, or to feed cod
liver Oh n the ration. Cod-liver oil
contains vitamines that act as a sub
stitute for sunshine In helping to as
similats minerals,
Recent, experiments show that the
sunshine mot only helps IN the ass1mi-
lation Of minerals, but that 1t also
helps h&tchehility. AT the Kansas
staton hens that were allowed &C
cess to sunshine showed a Matching
record ,of 70 per cent as compared to
SO per cent for hens that we're bept
In houses with glass windows.

BUILDING DEPT. IS
BACKED BY COURT
Judge Fines Haberski, Assuring
City Inspector Of Support

Imposing a fine of SIS and costs
on Leo Haberski of ~ Cabot street
on the charge OF violation of the
building ordinances, Judge Henry p.
Roche in police court today served
notice that the authorities who are
charged with the duty OF enforcing
the building laws have the backing
of the court. The fact that Haberski
will be put to an expense of $500
or 5000 to restore a building at So
Silver street to the condition it was
in before he began alterations, is in
itself a punishment. Judge Roche
said.
Haberski, who pleaded not guilty
| when arraigned in court last week.
| changed his plea to one of guilty
and after Building Inspector A. N.
rutherford explained the case, At
torney B. J. Monkiewicz made a plea
for suspended sentence on the
tionally violate the law and the
great expense to which he will be
put is considerable punishment.
Haberski was in the office of the
building department and saw per-
nit issued to him and signed by the
attorney said. Believing it to be
the permit for the alterations he
planned to make at g. Silver street,
he started the job only to be stop
ped few days later when it was
learned that the permit he had seen
job in his charge.
Inspector, Rutherford testified that
application for a permit to build
two stores at the corner of Broad
berski on July II. The inspection
of the premises disclosed that plas-
ter and partitions had been torn out
although the contemplated work
was not permitted by ordinance.
Haberski was then ordered to dis
continue work. the inspector said.
Asked by Attorney Monkiewicz if it
was true that a permit to Haberski
for another job had been signed,
Mr.. Rutherford replied Affirmative
ly. The attorney said he is in full
accord with the efforts of the build
ing department officials to enforce
the laws and where there are viola
tons there should be penalties, but
in view Of the circumstances in this
case he believed a suspended pen
atty would meet the ends of Justice,
Prosecuting Attorney Woods re-
piled that the court cannot permit
property owners and builders to
wink at the law. The building COM
mission and the building inspector
are looked to for the performance
of their duties and the court should
stand behind them. He drew from
Inspector Rutherford the statement
that Haberski was warned some
time ago for a violation of the build
ing ordinances.

ACCUSED SOLDIER MAKES
DENIAL OF CHARGES
Camp Devens Man Insists He Did
Not Attack Girl as She
Claims He Did.

Camp Devens, Mass, July 20
UP)-A 10 year old Lynn girl was
in a critical condition at the army
hospital today and a soldier was in
the guardhouse charged with fe-
lonious assault.
The girl. Miss Pearl Agarkis, was
found yesterday by two soldiers
near vacant house not far from
the camp. She appeared to have
been badly beaten about the head
and was unconscious.
She was taken to the camp hos
pital where she recovered con-
seriousness long enough to say,
Don't tell my mother Jimmy
Farnsworth did it. l love him still"
Private James Farnsworth, %,
of Minneapolis, Mimi. an instruc-
tor at the c. NJ. 7. c., was arrest
ed and lodged in the guardhouse.
An examination of his effects by
Provost Marshal Lieut.. r. M. Flan-
agan revealed bloodstains on the
cuff of a shirt.
Farnsworth's story was that
about II o'clock Monday night the
girl. with whom he had been
friendly. called for him at the bar
racks. He sent word that he was
in bed but got up after Miss Agar
kis had returned word that it was
imperative she see him.
She told Farnsworth she had
been brought to the camp by her
employer, a Lynn man. Farnsworth
took her to Aver where he told her
to stay at a hotel or take the train
home, he said. The soldiers said he
then returned to camp and went to
bed.
Miss Agarkis told army officers
she had been with Farnsworth on
the night in question and that he
had suddenly attacked her and lett
her under the vacant house near
which she was found

In Fact She Does Not Even
Attend Contest But
Sends in Picture Which
Wins Her a Cup.

New York. July 90 (UP)-The
most fascinating pair Of legs in the
United States may be twinklng. un-
honored and unsung, in Birming-
ham, Ala, today. all because their
fair owner couldn't come to New
York to show them to the world.
The legs are owned by Miss Era
Briggs, Birmingham girl, who was
a heavy favorite with the board of
elimination for the annual beautiful
leg contest of the National Hosiery
and Underwear exposition, now in
session at the Hotel Waldor-Astoria.
The hundreds of girls from every
part of the country whose photo
graphs were entered for the contest
We're eliminated to the score who
were invited to New York for a per-
sonal appearance in the finals. All
came except Miss Briggs.
10 Pairs Inspected
The other 10 were inspected by
the board of judges yesterday, nine
teen pairs of shapely. silken-clad
calves, with dimpled knees peeping
shyly from under appraised skirts,
We're paraded before the four judges,
experts in art, and underwear.
1t was decided, after heated de-
bate. that Miss Gladys Turner, a
Broadway showgirl whose home is
in Orange, n. j., had the best of
those present But there was many
a sigh for the absent Miss Briggs.
All the judges had inspected photo
graphs of her twin attractions and
there was no argument.
Here's the Report
However, Miss Turner won, and
on the following grounds:
Ankle, inches: calf. II inches:
knee. II IL inches; thigh, 20 IL

1t was a deadlock for long time
between her and Miss Leona Newell

lowing argument in her favor: Ankle

But to leg expert, leg speaks
for itself in language only a true

Harry Klemfuss, secretary of the
exposition and one OF the judges, ex-

So there it stands. The judges

COOLIDGE GIVES
TIP TO REPORTER
Latter Then Gets Story About
Dry Field Station

Ardmore. S. D., July 20 UP)-
Out here in the golden west where
there is plenty of scenery and
enough outdoor life to please the
most persistent of game hunters,
news has been scarce for the Wash
ington correspondents assigned to
cover the summer vacation of
President Coolidge.
Realizing this comparative short
age of news. Mr.. Coolidge suggested
that newspaper correspondents
write stories about the Ardmore dry
farming field station. 1,600-acre
tract of land devoted by the fed
eral government to experiment in
raising crops where the rainfall av-
erages only IL inches a year, and
about the Bellefourche irrigation
project where the government fur
nished water for the farmers OF two
counties.
In accordance with the presidents
suggestion, the United Press cor
respondent came here and has found
some interesting information con-
corning the extent to which the
government has gone to develop the
soil possibilities of vast praAes.
0. r. Matthews, head Of the ex-
perimental farm, divulged the fact
that thousands of farmers yearly
visit his 400 acres of cultivated
land and 1900 acres of pasture land
- Loo ho win nf %rod 10 af
growing alfalfa, wheat, corn, and
sugar beets, and of raising cattle.
Mr.. Coolidge himself saw the crops
last Saturday at a farmers picnic
and walled amongst the stubby corn
three feet high which is grown In
this semi-arid region.
When the first prairie ground IN
this region was broken in 1911, the
station was established at a cost to
the government of 100000.
The most important part of the
work in crop production in this area
is the study of the proper method
of cultivation and crop rotation.
Matthews told the United Press that
if proper methods are used it is pos
sible to obtain average yields from
this soil despite the handicaps of
nature.
Grazing work is carried on entire
~ on native pastures. One of the OBJ
iects is to find the carrying capacity
of the native grass to determine the
effect of different intensities of graz
ing on vegetation. Another object is
to find to what extent the carrying
Capacities of pasture land may be
increased without injury to vegeta-
ton.
1--WE have done the farmers out
here lot of good" Matthews said.
Il can vizualize the day when all
these brown buttes and rolling lands
will bear food for the nation. Today
they are practically worthless"
The station is situated at the foot
of the Black Hills where Mr.. Cool
idge is spending the summer The
crops are unusually good this year
because the rainfall has been four
inches above normal. Great waving
fields of wheat and corn can be seen
from the half dozen little white
houses where the government crop
experts live.
That constitutes virtually every
thing that the United Press cores
pondent could learn about the farm.
If the story is not considered very
good, the correspondent wishes that
part of the blame be placed on the
presidential shoulders because it was
his idea.
