SHOOK SERVES
NOTICE LAW IS
TO BE ENFORCED

SACRAMENTO. July I9.-(Spe
ciaD-Notice was served on the
California driving public by Frank
9. Shook. chief Of the division of
motor vehicles, that the new law
effective July 90, fixing the maxi.
mum speed limit on the public
highways at 40 miles an hour, will
be rigidly enforced.
Forty miles means 40 and not
$50 Such was the terse order
given traffic officers operating
throughout the state. There will
be no tolerance permitted. Shook s
order added:
This department felt and still
feels that 40 miles an hour under
open road conditions is a compare
lively safe rate of speed. We like
wise found this to be the general
opinion among authorities after a
survey of several weeks while the
legislature was in session. Fol
this reason we sponsored an in
crease from 35 to 40 miles an hour
as the maximum, believing that it
would tend to speed up traffic.
Thousands of motorists have
for years technically violated the
law by driving up to 40. 1t will
now be possible for them to enjoy
this extra five miles and still drive
within the limit. We believe this
will tend toward a greater respect
for the law.
but 40 miles means just that
and no more. We propose therefore
to arrest any motorist caught trav
cling beyond this limit, believing
it fast enough for ordinary purpos'
es.
Motorists arc likewise warned
that they can be charged witt
reckless driving for travelling al
speeds much less than 40 miles un
der certain conditions, such as
heavy traffic. dangerous crossings
and intersections, etc. y

many CASUALTIES
IN VIENNA RIOTS

Vienna. - Contrary to all expecta-
tons Sunday found the Seipel gov.
eminent stronger than ever, without
the least intention of resigning, but
concentrating all its efforts on restor-
ing order as quickly as possible and,
if necessary, with the severest meat
ures.
For many hours Friday and Satur-
day the police and mobs had struggled
in various parts of the capital There
were some desperate encounters. and
although the authorities made public
casualties numbering IL dead and 100
wounded, the general belief is that
they exceeded 12O dead, with more
than 1000 wounded,
The government, with the support
of the police and troops, is absolute
master Of the situation. Everywhere
it is emphasized that the riot was in
no way directed against foreigners,
who have not been molested in
single instance
The central section OF Vienna is
quiet, though presenting the picture of
a state of seige, with all public build
ings guarded by troops and police and
machine guns at points of vantage.

KEEPING TURKEYS
IN PROPER HEALTH,

Turkeys are heir to all the poultry
ailments, and treatment Is about the
same. But while the young are ten
der, the adults are able to withstand
considerable hardship
When allowed to range over fields
woods and highways they keep in the
best of condition and pick up n very
large portion of their food. writes
Michael X. Boyer in the Farm and
Ranch. AS the nature of the turkey
is to roam, 1t does not thrive In con
finement
Inbreeding Is one of the worst er
rors and the cause of much degen.
eracy among stock. Indigestion is the
chief turkey trouble, and this is usual
ly brought on by improper feeding.
Looseness of the bowels may come
from bad feeding, dampness. filth, and
infestation with lice.
Young points are sometimes lost
through rheumatism, caused by expos
ure, damp roosting places. too little
green food. or poorly-cOnstructe
houses
There is difference between ordi-
nary les weakness and rheumatism.
In the later the shunks remain con.
tracted and stiff, while in leg weak
ness they are soft. Leg weakness is
brought on by lack of muscle and
boneforming material. In rheuma-
tism the trouble is aggravated by the
meat food, which in leg weakness is
needed.
Young turkeys must not be allowed
to become wet The slightest damp
ness is apt to be fatal Filth will soon
make short work of the youngsters.
The delicacy of young turkeys is
largely due TO the rapid growth of
feathers. Unlike the chick, the young
turkey at once starts to put out large
feathers on its wings and tail, and
this heavy growth has tendency to
sap the vitality from the body, leaving
1t an easy prey to weakness and dis
ease. A damp soil, such as heavy clay
land, is very unsuitable for rearing
the young. A very cold, exposed stu.
alton Is likewise unfit.
