GREEN FOODS FOR
HENS IN WINTER
Alfalfa Considered Best by
Most Breeders.

Swiss chard makes a good green
feed until freezing weather occurs
and then the remaining leaves can
be cut off and given to the hens
until the supply becomes badly wilt
ed, says the Indiana Farmers Guide.
Swiss chard should be planted in
deep rich garden soil for best re-
suits. AS soon as the leaves are
cut, more will sprout from the roots.
long row in farm garden will
supply a lot of green feed for the
average farm flock during the late
summer and fall when the grass on
the range becomes dry and tough.
Bushels of the succulent green
leaves can be gathered from a very
small space.
However, alfalfa is now consid.
cred about the best winter green
feed for hens and if you can obtain
a few loads of second cutting al
falfa which is rich in green leaves,
you will find it more desirable for
the poultry than swiss chard or
cabbage. Cabbages are easy to store
and will furnish succulent feed for
long time and mangel beets are
good succulent feed. but when it
comes to serving hens with real ap-
petizing green feed, there is prob
ably nothing better than the alfalfa
leaves. 1t pays to keep a rack of
alfalfa in each section of a laying
house. 1t gives the hens something
to peck at which will furnish the
bulk and vitamins and the stems can
be added to the scratching litter.

Humor in Parliament

A book of recoIlections by Sir
James Agg-Gardner, who until his re-
cent death heard all of the annual
flood of parliamentary words for "a
years, relates two of the funniest
Che said "mOst humorousO things
that were said in all that time:
"a young member, having cOmplet-
ed the perOratiOn of a semi-success-
full maiden speech, concluded, And
now l hope l have made ii clear to
honorable members opposite that we
who sit on this side are not quite
such fools as we look" :"
The other one is not quite so fun
ny but just as humorous:
"a member hailing from the Emer-
aid isle, criticizing the parsimoniOus
conduct of the South African war,
said, is it fair, sir, that we should
have our sons slaughtered at the
front, and then expect them to live

"Why"
There's something which might
interest you. A man named Brown
had some bad luck in a Wisconsin
camp two days ago"
'Yes, and what was it and what
of it?"
"He was killed in a wrestling
bout"
But I'm still asking you what
of it?"
He was impaled on the blade of
a hunting knife stuck in the wall"
"a man can't be impaled oD a
blade that's buried in a wall"
He can if the knife has a blade
opening from each end of the
handle"
"All right, and then what's OF
your mind?"
It's interesting, mister. The man
who threw Brown against the knife
and killed him was killed himself
a few hours later in a road accident.

CHAPTER IIl-Continued

The morning of October brought
a turn in the weather, breaking a
succession of brilliant, sparkling
days with a storm, with snow sky,
and with blue clouds piling up as
folds In range of mountains. A
whipping wind arose and brought
the snow, and the lake was whipped
into whitecaps. The wind was cold,
and the snow was driven straight
as flight of spears, was caught in
swirls to break as an upward futter
of white moths and was whipped
out again in straight drives.
1t was a day for every one about
the lodge TO knock off early from
anything that was being done and
to give up thinking of doing any
thing more If anything else had
been thought of. Only one member,
Preston Brown. had remained into
the fall at the club. He was out
with a gun for partridge. rabbits or
a chance at a duck.
By mid-afternoon the men about
the place. caretakers and guides
with young Menominee Indian
from the reservation and a travel
ing salesman who had been driving
to Hurley and who had stopped in
out of the snow, were making free
with the main room of the lodge. A
log fire had been lighted. Browns
tolerance was understood and taken
for granted. Several bottles of
liquor were produced.
In the woods a rustic playfulness
may be part of an early period of
drinking; another period may mean
rough action with bOisterOus hu-
NOR; while third may be violent
with no humOr. Within a half-hour
the group in the lodge room was
playful and was on the turn to
rougher humor when a Buick sedan
was driven up the camp road. The
driver got out of his car and stood
looking at the lodge. the snow
quickly whitening his clothes. He
wore hunting breeches and leggings
and a leather coat. He was of ro-
bust middle age. His black hair
was graying at the temples.
After a moments observation of
the place he went to the entrance.
The MenOminee had seen him from
the window, and one of the caretak-
ers opened the door. The stranger
said that he had been bound for the
Ontonagon country to the north but
was having trouble driving on ac-
count of the snow. He was invited
inside. Shortly afterward Brown
returned to the lodge with two part
ridges.
The Buick had been followed
along the main road by Cadillac
In which there were two men. When
The Buick was driven into the
grounds of Little Butte the Cadil-
lac continued on its course. but a

He ran off at an unfinished bridge.
And two more things. Brown and
Dunn Clayton must have known
each other. Dunn's name was found
in Browns belongings. but the other
man was stranger, and they don't
know his name. Something to think
about. Mr.. Corvaleski."
DO you think there is a continu
ity? Anything more than the acct
dent of Clayton's manner" the states
attorney asked after a pause.
There's not much to guess on"
said the lieutenant, but I'd like to
see the third man. I've an irresis-
tible hunch it's Buck Trembly. Even
if it's fantastic, that's the feeling
| have"
Go on up there, lieutenant" said
the states attorney. "I'I assign
you and put in a request for you
Stop in here for your expense
money. viii you do that? If you
are right, if it is Trembly, your as
sumptions regarding the Dutch Mill
will be conclusive with me. I'll not
indict the men taken at the Mill
for murder"
III 60" said the lieutenant. I've
got natural curiosity to see that
third man."
Stanton took the early morning
train and arrived in Eagle River the
next afternoon. He made the iden
titication of Trembly but did not
disclose it. He was driven to Lac
VieuX, TO the MenOminee reserva.
tion and to the place of the bridge
construction and returned on the
fourth day.
1t having been proved that it was
Trembly who had thrown Brown on
the blade of the hunting knife and
who himself had keen killed on the
road, several things became appaI
ent to the lieutenant and the states
attorney as they considered what
Stanton had learned in Villas county
First: if they accepted natural
and even insistent conclusions II
was Trembly who had killed Dunn.
Second: if that conclusion were
admitted Illinois justice must be
satisfied, even if not served, pro
viding no accomplices in the Dutch
Mill murder were to be looked for.
The deaths of Brown and of Trem-
bly, were of Wisconsin jurisdiction,
Third: although a continuity of
purpose and event was at least
plausible no motive was discovered
which could explain the three
crimes, if they were related to one
another and had a common origin.
Maisie, whose letter had made her
identity important in the Dutch Mill
murder, might reveal compete of
matrimony, eroticism, irregularity
and multiple murder of a peculiar
craftiness and remorselessness, but
such an assumption was a strain on
the probable meaning of facts as
known.
Fourth: if the death at the bridge
opening had not been caused by ig-
norance Of the road conditions OF
by careless driving or both but had
the intent to kill back of it and con.
tributing to it or causing it, then
there still remained an unknown
person or unknown persons who
had contrived or committed murder
The purpose was as hidden as the
person or persons themselves.

 Mir WaShburn expects the ex- petitions activities will occupy all summer. He says the party will return to Juneau, enroute to the States, September 10.
 MT Washburn was a member of a Mt. Fairweather climbing par ty expedition in 1880. He took numerous pictures and made accu- rate maps of the parts of the mountain conquered then, and these pictures and maps VII be used to facilitate this years attempt to reach the summit.
 The effort to ascend Mount Fair weather this summer will be made from the west side of the morn- tain The pinnacle has never been scaled from the west side, although this side seems to be the most logical way of approach.
 The -Carpe Taylor party in 1926 succeeded in reaching an all titude of $500 feet on the west ridge, but none has been able to ascend higher on this ridge.
 To Eliminate Overland Pack
 By establishing base camp near the Carpe Glacier at the lake at the head of Sea Otter Creek, above Cape Fairweather, the mountain eers will eliminate the long over land pack from Lituya Bay to the base of Mount Fairweather' west ridge. They will have their sup plies transported by airplane from the preliminary base camp on Gen. otaph Island to the permanent base camp near Carpe Glacier.
 This tack is expected to be &C., complished by the Cf1ichagof in two or three flights immediately after the seaplane lands at the camp near Carpe Glacier the party  of five which left here this fore noon.
 In making the ascent, the party will photograph and map the route, thus assembling detailed irforma- tion of the glaciers on the west slope of the F'airweatier Range. 1 Besides the ascent of Mount Fair weather, the mountaineers will un- dertake to climb five or six neigh boring peaks, which range between 12,0oO and 10000 feet above sea level.
 Mountain Climbing Opportunities
 One of the purposes of MT. Wash- burns expedition is to attract at tention to the fact that Southeast Alaska, within quick and easy reach, cannot be surpassed by Switzerland or any other remote place in the world, for manifold mountain climbing opportunities.

 House Hit

Simpson J. MacKinnon, 7-year- cid son. of MT and Mrs. Simpson J. MacKinnon of Juneau, played tag with death this forenoon and almost got caught. The lad, in crossing Franklin Street from the Gordon Store to the Nelson Jew elry establishment, failed to see a motor truck approaching from i the south, driven by Peter Batallo, and ran directly in front of the machine.
 The boy was lifted upon the front bumper of the truck as it's driver, in hastily trying to avoid hitting the child, swerved the car across at a right angle into the sidewalk, and stopped the truck just as its forward wheels touched the front Of the Donaldine Beauty Shop.
 Boy Falls From Bumper When the truck came to stop, the lad feel from it's bumper. He scrambled to his feet, frightened, but not hurt in the least. Batello is of dark complexion, but he was pale enough to pass for an Albino as he leaped from the seat of his truck, after having stopped it, and raced to the boy to lift him from the sidewalk. On ascer- taining no injury had resulted, the man embraced the lad in an ec- tasy of joy.
 The incident gave scare and a thrill to numerous pedestrians. The boy had just left Mrs. MacKinnon on the west side of Franklin Street to cross to the east side to get ride in d delivery automobile of the Alaska Steam Laundry, of which MT MacKinnon is proprietor.
