CANADA'S NOTED MOUNTIES
ARE NOW SIXTY YEARS OLD

one of the most important Indus
trial centers Of middle western
Canada, with a population Of over
10000.
The Klondike gold rush of '9S
brought a new emergency. Dawson
grew up overnight, stampede town
with the usual number of saloons,
dance halls, and gambling houses.
Ii promised soon to rival Skagway,
then controlled by 'Soapy Smith
and his gang, who robbed incoming
tenderfeet and departing miners
with equal success.
"a Yukon post was promptly es-
tablished by the Northwest mount
ed police, and Dawson speedily
transformed into a respectable and
law-abiding town. A detachment
was stationed at Shilkoot pass and
White pass, two main gateways
through which the prospectors
thronged, and the lawless soon
learned 10 leave their revolvers be-
hind. Month after month millions
in gold were conveyed and never
a dollar lost.
The force was 'knighted' in 1904
in recognition of its services in
the Boer war, becoming the Royal
Northwest mounted police. In 1920,
its Jurisdiction was widened TO
cover enforcement of federal au-
thority throughout the Dominion,
and all laws in the Yukon, North
west territory, and Dominion parks,
the title being changed TO Royal
Canadian Mounted Police.
To-day the mounted police patrol
Canada's last great frontier, the
chain of islands stretching from
Greenland TO Alaska. There are
posts on such isolated islands as
Ellesmere, North Devon, Bafiin, and
Victoria. The station on Bache
peninsula is within II degrees of
the North pole. At Herschel island
post was held the first court In the
Arctic, when an Eskimo was SEN
fenced for the murder of a con-
stable.
Although they have been given
little notice in the daily press, the
long winter patrols performed by
these officers deserve a high rating
in the record of Arctic exploration.
j 1929. for instance, one inspector
with a constable, one Eskimo, and
two dog teams travelled LOO miles
in 81 days, and considered it only
an ordinary part of the years work.
From Demon island TO Ellesmere
island the inspector covered the en-
tire northern part of the Canadian
Arctic archipelago.
There is one rule inflexibly
obeyed by every 'Mountie' Wheth-
er he is protecting the rights of the
migratory duck, the Blackfoot In
dian, or the Eskimo trapper, he
shoots only as a last resort-the
real secret OF the success of the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police"

Early Paris collections carry the
message that feathers of every de-
scription, and used in every con-
ceivable manner, will adorn the fall
and winter mode. Even during the
summer months fashionable Pari-
siennes have been wearing stunning
little toques made of pasted feath-
ers and now the new velvet berets
and draped turbans are coming in
with feather trims which confirm
the report that we are trending to-
ward their vogue. Among the early
arrivals there are many costumes
which have been given an ornate
accent with feather trimmings in
the form of boas and cunning cape
lets and other neckline treatments.
In creating the handsome dark green
velvet scarf-wrap, which the stand
Ing figure in the picture Is wear
ing, Lelong adopts a fancy ostrich
trim with white dots pasted on ends
of ostrich fronds which have been
waxed. The little sketch in the
inset shows an attractive shoulder
cape formed of rows and rows of
ostrich fringe. The hat has a cor
responding feather. 1t is said that
these little capelets and hat sets,
variously interpreted and made OF
different types of feathers. will be
very much in evidence during the
coming months.

LAYING HENS NEED
SHADE, GREEN FEED
Comfort of Flock Important
In Summer Time.

The comfort of the poultry flock
is a main consideration in getting
good egg yields during warm wea-
ther, states G. w. Knox, extension
poultryman, University of Arkan-
sas College of Agriculture.
Shade can be provided by the
use of low-growing shrubs or fruit
trees. Heavy leafed plants as the
castor bean make good shade, or
temporary shade can be constructed
by making low frames covered with
wire and then covered with straw.
The poultry house should be made
as cool as possible. Opening up the
front of the house, and windows on
the back and ends will allow ven
tilation' which will insure cool
houses.
Green feed is important in stimu-
lating egg production. Cowpeas and
soy beans make good summer
green's as they grow well in hot
weather. They also stand dry
weather fairly well. If a triple yard
ing system is used, by rotating the
hens from one yard to the other
each day tender green's can be kept
growing.
Skimmilk will stimulate egg pro-
duction and may be given either
sweet or sour, but should be fed
the same way each day. Buttermilk
may also be given. If as much as
one gallon of milk is fed each day
for each % hens, a simple mash
mixture may be used. This mix
ture may be made of 100 pounds
bran, 100 pounds corn meal, and 3.
pounds salt. Oyster shell is kept
before the hens, and a grain feed
of 2 parts corn and 1 part wheat
is fed late in the afternoon. If no
milk is available, rs pounds of
meat scrap can be added to the
mash mixture. Dry mash should
be kept before the hens all the time
during the entire year.

Culling the Hens

The federal government issues
the following instructions about
culling hens: Gull all hens that are
sick, weak, inactive, lacking in Wig
or, poor eaters; those with
shrunken. hard. dull or whitish
colored comb; those with thick stiff
pelvis bones that are close together,
and those that have small spread
or distance between the rear end of
the keel and pelvic bones. Those
that have full firm or hard abdo-
men are also less desirable, and
those that have mOlted or begun to
molt should be removed likewise.
In breeds having yellow legs and
skin, the discarded hens would also
show yellow or medium yellow legs
and yellow beaks and vents"

Efficient Police Force OBJ
serves Its Anniversary

Washington. - Canada's romantic
and efficient police force - the
Royal Canadian mounted police-is
observing, this year, its sixtieth an
niversary. A band of men, small
in number, but strong In courage,
experience, and hard training,
have maintained law and order
over a vast territory. reaching from
the great plains north into the
Yukon, and across the Arctic to
Hudson bay and Baffin island.
"In 1870, when the government
OF Canada gained control over the
unexplored lands of the great
Northwest, it was confronted with
the problem of protecting pioneer
settlers" says a bulletin from the
National Geographic society. War
fare between powerful Indian tribes
roaming the plains, discouraged
the westward march of the white
man. Whisky runners whose con-
coctions crazed the Indians also dis
turbed peaceful progress of intrepid
pioneers. Two tin cups full of fire
water bought a buffalo robe, and
three gallons a good horse.
"It was In answer 10 the need for
curbing these unruly elements that
the Northwest mounted police was
organized in 1873 at Stone Fort, just
south of Lake Winnipeg. An Off
cial bulletin issued to the first re-
cruits tersely stated that the gov
ernment will make use of any per-
son connected with the force at
any work that may be considered
desirable The government has
kept this promise through the years.
After only years training 300
members of the police marched
over 1900 miles of unknown terri
tory, restoring law and order from
the Red river TO the Rocky noun
tains. Treaties were made with
the Indians, horse stealers and mur-
derers brought 10 swift justice. and
Fort Whoop-Up, stronghold of
whisky traders, raided. Winter
caught the Mounties' before they
could make a return march, so a
permanent camp was set up at Mac
leod, oldest town in southern AL
berta. Calgary, another fort which
they founded that year. has grown
TO be one of the most important
towns of western Canada.
"As the work of the force In
creased, 1t became evident that a
central station was necessary. An
unlnhabited strip of prairie along
Pile o. Bones Creek was selected
and inappropriately called Regina.
-or over half a century Regina
served as headquarters for the
Northwest mounted police II was
also for years the capital of the
Northwest territories; and today,
as the capital Of Saskatchewan, is

Cutting Soybeans for Hay

Soybeans are cut for hay when
in full bloom and the pods are be-
ginning to set. Harvesting should
not be delayed too late in mid
summer because of the necessity of
good curing weather. 1t may be
necessary to leave a heavy crop in
the swath for a day longer than for
clover hay and then rake into wind
rows for curing. Because of slow
drying, most farmers prefer to
place In small cocks and let stand
for a week or ten days.-Hoards

Boise, ldaho.-lt's a wise dog
that knows enough to hitch-hike,
and c. II. Christensen owns such
a dog. A group of picnickers
parked their cars alongside a

When they wei ready to leave

running board. Orders to 'scram"
were answered only by a wag of
tail and pointed nose to the
west. So the autOists drove on.
About fourteen miles along the
road. the picnickers passed a
camp. where they heard COM
mands To stop.
"What are you doing with my
dog?" asked Christensen of the
tourists.

answer. He asked for it several

Fertilizer for Grapes

A light application of stable ma
nure should be made before the
blowing of bunch grapes, advises a
farm expert. If this is not avail
able nitrate of soda may be used
and scattered around the vine at the
rate of one-half pound per vine. Do
not put this material close to the
vine but scatter in a circle about
one foot away. On light soils, acid
phosphate and potash used at the
rate of two pounds of phosphate and
one-half pound of potash will prove
beneficial

"CHICAGO ANNE"
LOSES HER FAITH
IN FELLOW CROOKS
Latest Experience Proves to
Her They Are Not to
Be Trusted.

Chicago. - Mrs. Annie Gleason
(Chicago Anne), now past sixty
years old, has been a crook and an
associate Of crooks since she was
fourteen years old.
She had, in her career, many mo-
ments of glory. She associated with
such internationally known police
characters as Eddie Guerin, who
escaped from DEVILS Island, and
Chicago May Churchill. She helped
blow a safe in Baltimore, she stole
"a $4,000 necklace in London and
she aided a pickpocket with his work
in Germany.
Those are all bright memories to
her. She has darker ones, too. They
include the death of her husband in
prison, the IS years she herself
spent in English penitentiaries, and
a term in the Auburn prison in New
York. But the bitterest memory of
all is of her last partner in crime.
He did her wrong.

Agricultural SQuibs

approximately one-fourth of the
farm area of the South is In forests

Alabama bee producers have re-
ceived $250000 this year from sale
of 7O0,0OO,O0O honey bees.
Wool eating is sometimes seen
among sheep of all ages and seems
to be more frequent among sheep
which have been kept in close
quarters.
People of the United States have
consumed annually an average of
AZ bushels Of wheat per capita In
recent years, compared with bush
els for Australia, and So for Ar.
gentina.
Butter production in this country
during 1892, was 116, 10000 pounds:

Tells Story of Life.
Recently the police arrested Chi
cago Anne as an associate of John
J. Reedy, well-known crook who
committed suicide in Chicago, but
later released her. Anne was liv-
ing with a man and woman who
were known as petty crooks. Calm,
neat matronly looking, she sat in
the Chicago detective bureau and
told Chief Of Detectives Shoemaker
the long story of her life.
Mike Gleason was my husband" :"
she said. I'VE were married on the
South side when / was only four
teen. l let my hair down and claimed
| was nineteen so we could have
the wedding. Mike was a fine man.
A pickpocket, but good one. He
only worked in banks where peo-
pie had their pockets full of bills.
We made enough money in that
game during the Worlds fair of 1893
TO go to Europe.
Mike did well abroad, end so did
l. But in 1908 they caught him in
Germany and he did q stretch of
seven years in Berlin. When he
got out he went to England, was
caught there and died In prison.
beat him to Jail, though. They got
me on a larceny charge in London
in 1905 and at Old Bailey / was SEN
fenced to three years.
Back In Chicago.
They caught me again in 1911
and stayed in nearly fifteen years.
Cruel places, those English prisons.
They made me work in the laun-
dries and the hot water and the
harsh soap ruined my hands. When
i got out of England / came to Amer
lea, where went again to prison,
this time in Auburn. In 1927, free
again, came to Chicago"
Chicago Anne declared that she
had lived an honest life for six
years and would have stayed a re-
tired member of crookdom If Reedy
hadn't appeared few weeks ago
with tempting offer.
HE told me he needed my help"
she asserted, 'just for one good job.
We'd make a single big jewelry haul
and have enough to live out our
days with plenty. l agreed to help
him. So he called himself Doctor
Clayton and called myself Mrs.
Clayton, and we went into the Ben
jamin Allen & Company jewelry
shop on Wabash avenue.
II was to keep the clerks atten-
ton and Doctor Clayton was to
take the jewelry when they weren't
looking. But the poor old fellow had
lost his grip. He confessed to me
when we got out that he hadn't
taken a thing, that he didn't have
the nerve. Poor old guyl Now he's
dead and buried, all for disappoint-
ment because he couldn't be a good
crook any longer"
But" said Chief Shoemaker. "he
did get something in that job. He
had $500 worth of jewelry in his
room. We found it after he commit
ted suicide. And it came from AL
lens"
"Whatw exclaimed Chicago Anne.
"He made a sucker out Of me. The
dirty double-crosser."
