Mrs. C. Earl Duvall has been very poorly since Saturday and is still in a very critical condition. Dr. Kresler, the attending physician, called a specialist from Chicago Monday evening and a thorough diagnosis of the case was made and today in some respects she is improved while in some other ways she does not seem quite so well and there seems only about a half chance for recovery. (Mrs. Duvall was operated Wednesday night of last week for a strangulated ovarian cyst and appendicitis and for some time seemed to be getting along very well, but the turn for the worse occurred Saturday.

The Lafayette Sunday Times under its new ownership and since its consolidation with the Morning Journal made its first appearance last Sunday. It was in metropolitan dress and is such a great improvement over the mediocre Sunday papers with which Lafayette has been represented for many years that it should find a welcome in every home in that city and in many of the small towns thereabouts. The only question apparently is whether circulation can be secured» to justify the expense of such an excellent paper. Lafayette city pride should cause It to be taken to the exclusion of Chicago and Indianapolis. EXTRA—See Oklahoma City .tonight ait The Princess theatre. • *

COMMENDS PLAN FOR POULTRY CLUBS

J. W. King Quotes Figure* to Show That Poultry Raising Pays If Diligently Followed. I see in a late issue of your paper that County Superintendent Ernest Lamson and County Agent Barrett have formulated plans and are ready now to proceed with the organization of a boys’ corn club and girls’ poultry club for Jasper county and I am surely glad to learn of this movement and I would like through the columns of your paper to give its readers What ‘Mrs. A A Berry, of lowa, who runs a large poultry farm there, has to say about poultry raising. This question she says is often asked her: “Will it pay?” This question first arises to one contemplating the poultry business; “Does it pay? Can Imake a living or make money in the poultry (business?” We would emphatically say yes. You can both make a living and lay up money. WeK are backed in our answer by the hundreds of profitable poultry plants devoted to the raising of broilers tor early market, by mammoth farms devoted to. the production of eggs, by the large plants where the “soft roasters” are produced, by the mammoth establishments devoted to pure bred fowls and thousands of smaller poultry farms which produce both eggs and chickens for the markets, and by the magnificent pure bred breeding plants that are scattered all over the country. Thousands of farmers (often their wives) are raising enough chickens, tihe profit on which pays the grocers’ bill as well as the dry goods and clothing bills and meets all incidental expenses. There is nothing on the farm that will make the good clear money that poultry will and there are thousands of poultry raisers who will testify to the truth Of this assertion. There is no greater money maker in the world today than the patient American hen. Nearly for-ty-five million crates of eggs are sold yearly, according to'the government report. Eggs and poultry earnings for one year over $645,000,000. Such gigantic figures are riot readily understood only by comparing them with other industries. Study this illustration: (How Uncle Sam’s largest industry compares with others.) This diagram shows the poultry and egg output of the United States in comparison with seven other industries. Their value is given as follows: Poultry and eggs $645,421,216 Gold, silver, sheep, wool ..391,564,432 Cotton .362,863,456 Wheat • .329,734,862 Hogs 2,89,673,213 -Oats 120,466,004 Potatoes ...91,300,000 Tobacco 60,290,000 In view of the above facts, we are warranted in the statement that the fanner who gives his poultry the same care and attention that he does the other domestic animals and other departments of his farm, will soon wake up to the fact that there is nothing else on the farm that gives as good returns from a financial point of view for the capital invested and time spent as the poultry. Will it last? Is there not danger in over-doing the chicken business No, it is the most likely business in Ameica today. The consumption of eggs and poultry is something enormous. The United States cannot supply the great demand and we are compelled to import from other pattons at the rate of thousands of cases of eggs per year. There is a great demand for better bred poultry, as P ure stock of all kinds will pay better and be more satisfactory in every way. Pure breeds lay more eggs, are more uniform and of better quality, demanding a much better price. They will make more weight, thus being worth more when sold. By all means raise the best. Don’t be content with mixed breeds just because they are cheap. Get some pure breeds, either by procuring some eggs, a few birds of ‘both sexes, or some good males to head your flocks. There is no danger of overdoing the poultry business. We simply cannot supply the demand even at the high price that has prevailed tor the past few years, in many states the farmer obtaining from 20c to 40c per dozen in the spring and summer and double that price in the winter time. It costs no more to raise a hen that will lay 250 eggs per year than it does to raise one that lays only 60 j' W. KING.

Nine men were caught Tuesday and killed by a gas explosion in caseion No. 5 of the new Harahan (bridge, under construction across the Mississippi river at Memphis. The men, all of whom were white, had just gone to work, relieving a shift of ten negroes.

Manager George Has Two Big Attractions Soon to Appear.

Manager George of the Princess was in Chicago Monday and contracted tor two of the greatest pictures ever shown, since motion theatres became the rage. One is a 6-part drama entitled “For Napoleon and France,” a spectacular production that has an important historic value and should be seen by all lovers of beautifif! photography as well as by all who want to come into a closer knowledge ot the character of Napoleon. This play will be produced at The Princess afternoon and evening of Saturday, April 25th, the admission beinfi 20 cents. Mr. George had to put up S4O cash in order to secure this film for the single night. It is now running in New York city. Three weeks later, on Saturday, May 16th, he will present an 8-part .play, entitled “Antony and Cleopatra,” and the charge tor this performance will be 25 cents. These will be great pictures that none should miss.

HANGING GROVE.

The band boys met at McCoysburg Wednesday night for practice. The professor was unable to be out so Roy Heck, the first cornet player, gave the boys a workout. Sunday School will be at 2:30 Sunday afternoon and immediately after will be the Easter program. The Easter exercises weje announced tor Sunday night but owing to some delay in the original plans occasioned by a few cases of mumps, it has been decided to make the above changes. M. L. Ford went to Rensselaer Tuesday to consult a doctor about an injured eye. Mr. Ford got some sand in his eye several days ago and has since been giving him considerable trouble Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Randle and children visited at Simon Cook’s Sunday. The Cochran vs. Tanner cow shooting affair was settled by agreement Monday afternoon and the cause dismissed. Tanner paid the damage and costs. The whole affair was a pure case of thoughtlessness and is to be regretted very much. It is hoped this will end the court cases in our township for a while at least. The matter of ejecting T. J. Becker and family from the G. W. Infield property has been stayed for three days, on condition of a contract signed by Becker that they will vacate the property peaceably by Saturday. Simon Cook has bought a fine black mare to match the one he already had and he now has the finest matched team of blacks in the township. The country seems to be getting full of tramps and beggars. People should beware and give only to worthy causes.
