WILL NOT ASK VENUE CHANGE SN "DRY" CASES Prosecutor at Evansville Will Deny Allegations in Brewers' Suits.

KVANSVILLE, Ind., Feb. 22 It now seems certain that Lane B. Osborn, prosecuting attorney of Vanderburg county, and defendants In the suits brought to test the validity of " the state-wide prohibition law, will ask for no change of venue from Vanderburg county. A man .who is closely connected with the cases and also is close to Osborn, said today that he felt sure that no change of venue will lie asked for unless "present plans f-hould be changed." It is understood the prosecutor w'ill file in the superior court Friday morning a general denial of all the allegations in the complaints that were filed for the companies by Robinson & Stillwell. This will bring tho suits before the court for trial on their merits. Prosecutor Osborn refused again today to outline his plan in regard to handling the cases. Minton Confers With Ministers. fl. C. Minton. attorney for the AntiSuloon League, was here for two days and held a conference with the ministers and also had a talk with Prosecutor Osborn, but the latter refused to make public anything that was aid. The Rev. L. N. Montgomery, pastor of the First Avenue Presbyterian church, said today that he attended a conference of local pastors with Mr. Minton. "We have not formulated our plans sufficiently to give the public," said the Rev. Mr. Montgomery. "Our, ministers are standing together in the matter and will fight to h finish. Ye stand with the Anti-Saloon League, the pastors' association itnd with Prosecutor Osborn." Tt is understood the ministers are in favor of appealing the opinion of Judge Hostetter to the supreme court of Indiana. One thing discussed in the conference was that of raising money to be used in appealing the case. One minister who attended the conference said they would like to raise about $1,000 for this purpose. Case Not Yet Decided. Albert J. Veneman, county attorney, taid today: "Although the liquor interests consider the overruling of the demurrers a victory, the case is not yet decided. There is an abundance of evidence that must be proved before a decision can be rendered. Even without a change of venue the case is jot entirely lost by the defense." Mr. Venoman has not yet given an opinion to the county commissioners on the question of renewals of liquor licenses. At present there are about 223 licenses in force In Vanderburg county, and most of these, Charles P. Board, county auditor believes, will lie renewed. More than 100 saloon keepers have anticipated a favorable decision and have placed the legal advertisements, which must be inserted at least twtnty days prior to the first .Monday of the month in which the licenses expire. The last day on which these licenses can be published Is March 12. When the attorneys for the plaintiff were asked their opinion of tho possibility that the case might be drawn out until it was too late for filing applications, they said they would not "cross bridges until they came to ther." Auditor Beard expects fully 225 ap

plications for license renewals will be

filed before April 1. Heretofore the

number of licenses granted at one ses

sion of the county commissioners rare

ly exceed twenty.

BACKYARD FACTORY MAKES EGGS

This Intensive Town-Lot Poultry Plant Carries 70 Hens One Pen of 13 Laid 2,163 Eggs in a Year.

The extreme cold weather this winter has caused unusual damage through frosted combs and wattles of fowls. In the largo-comb breeds both cocks and hens are affected. The females of the breeds, having mediumsized combs, are not often seriously injured by frost, but when the mercury goes below 7eio the combs and wattles of the males are often very badly nipped.

SEVENTY-HEN EGG FACTORY AS A BACKYARD VENTURE The illustration above shows an intensive backyard poultry plant which is making a very important food contribution to a Nation that needs more egg3 and poultry flesh. Practically the entire backyard is occupied by houses and covered runs and about 70 hens are carried. Each house is 6 by 14 feet and is divided into 2 pens with a covered yard of the same size. There are about 15 hens to a pen. The houses arc raised from the ground so that the hens can run under them and the soil in the runs is renewed four times a year. A flock of 13 hens in one of these pens laid 2.1B3 eggs in a year. Oats are sprouted for green feed in the cellar of the dwelling house of the owner. Chicks, too, are raised in this basement. If you are thinking of starting a backyard poultry business, write to the U. S. Department of Agriculture for a copy of Farmers' Bulletin 8S0, "Back-yard Poultry Keeping."

Whan first frozen the comb and wattles retain their normal color, except fo;' a slight whiteness of the skin of the frozen parts. After the affected parts thaw out they turn dark in color, and there is more or less inflammation in them and the adjacent parts. Treatment Is most beneficial if first applied before the frozen parts begin to thaw. At this stage the best treatment is to rub with cold vaseline or lard, manipulating gently with the fingers to draw the frost gradually and restore circulation. When the frost is out anoint the parts with a mixture of 5 tablespoons vaseline, 2 tablespoons glycerine, 1 tableppoon turpentine. Apply this two or three times a day, keeping the bird in a cool (not cold) place. If the frostbite is not noticed until thawing has occurred, omit the first rubbing. The thin wattles of males are most susceptible, especially when they are wet as the bird drinks. In severe cold weather it is best not to give males access to open drinking vessels except during the warmer hours of the day. The combs are usually frosted at night when the birds are on the roosts. A curtain of burlap or of cotton cloth hung before the roost will ofteu keep the space back of it warm enough to prevent any frostbites. If it is more convenient the males may he removed to a warmer place for the night. Rubbing vaseline on the combs and wattles of the males m;ikes them more

frost-resistant.

lished standard breed kept up on every vacant home lot in the country would mean millions of meat and eggs for this country for which our government is calling and pleading upon every side. We can do a very worthy part if we will get busy, and at the same time without loss to ourselves. In fact, if well managed, it will mean a profit. The chances are that we have some old shed in the back yard which can be converted into a good roosting place for our hens without extra expense. For easy yarding it will be a good plan to take up some one of the heavier breeds which are not given to high flying. There are a number of these which are producers of lots of good meat and at the same time among the best layers. These are any of the Plymouth Rocks, any of the Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds, Orpingtons and Javas. From this amy of form and color one Can make the selection to suit his own fancy and still have the best that can be found. The chances are that you will r be the means of getting your children interested in some of this work and thus have no trouble in keeping them off the street as you desire, at the same time be instilling in them a thrift that will mean much to them in after years. No matter whether they aro so much Interested in the business as a business but the fact that they will become accumtomed to the details of a small business and its attendant income as results." Ir you will but take hold of this matter as we have simply outlined roughly we will warrant, that you will never regret a step taken in this direction. It will result in good from start to finish and may be-the means of improving your health If need be, taking you away from the worries of business for a time each day. Try it and see for yourself.

Three Million Persons Are Facing Starvation An appeal for the relief of the starving Armenians, T Syrians, Turks and

Persians, will be made by Dr. Charles F. Aked, of San Francisco, advocate of social reform, in hia address at the high school audltoriun) Monday evening. " According to Information received by the relief board of which Dr. Aked Is the-representative, 3,000,000 ar facing starvation In Armenia and adjoining countries, and conditions are expected to grow worse before the harvest, which is not due for four of five months. There are hundreds of beggars in the strets, and thousands of persons congregate daily'about the relief stations, calling for food. Dr. Aked is acquainted with conditions in Armenia through personal observation, and has actively interested himself, on many occasions, in obtaining relief for the people of the country and defending them from the repeated massacres to which they have been subjected. His subject Monday night will be "The Assassination of a Race," and will deal with the problems of the Armenian nation. The speaker was on the Ford peace ship, and was an ardent advocate of peace until the atrocities of the Germans in the present war, showed him the necessity of carrying on the conflict, and the importance of preparedness.

A Bad Back Makes Life Miserable For Many Richmond People. A bad back Is a heavy burden. A burden at night when bedtime comes. Just as bothersome in the morning. Ever try Doan's Kidney Pills for it? Know they are for kidney backache and other kidney ills? If you don't, some Richmond people do. Read a case of It: Mrs. Chas. Colter, 1214 South F street, Richmond, says: "My kidneys were weak and I suffered awfully from attacks of backache. My work was burdensome; I tired easily and often had to stop and rest. Headaches and dizzy spells annoyed me and my kidneys acted irregularly. When I read about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a supply from Thistlethwaite's Drug Store, and they soon, rid me of the backache and restored my energy. I felt stronger and better in every way." Price 60c at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Colter had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.

Cocoanut Oil Makes I A Splendid Shampoo j

4 : . If you want to keep your hair In good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Most sr-;is and prepared shampoos contains too much alkali. This dries the Bcalp, makes the hair brittle, and

is very harmful. Just plain mulsifled ! cocoanut oil (which is pure and en-1 tirely greaseless). Is much bc'ter than! the most expensive soap or anything! else you can use for shampoing, as j this can't possibly injure the hair. J Simply, moisten your hair with wat-j

er and rub It In. One or two teaspooafuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy latl er, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and r :- cesslv j oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and It leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil st most any drug store, rt is very cheap, and a .ew ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months. Adv

An Inside Bath Makes You Look and Feel Fresh

Says glass cf hot water wrth phosphate before breakfast . keeps illness away.

i :

Physicians the world over recom- ' mend the Inside bath, claiming this is ' of vastly more Importance than out-; side cleanliness, because the skinpores do not absorb impurities into! the blood, causing 111 health, while the! pores in the ten yards of bowels do. Men and women are urged to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in It, as a. harmless means of helping to wash from the Htomaeh, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's indigestible materials, poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal' before putting more food Into the stomach. Those who wake up with bad breath, 'coated tongue, nasty taste or have a dull, aching head, sallow com-, plexion, acid stomach; others who are subject to bilious attacks or consti-' pation, should obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to demonstrate the value of Inside bathing. (Adv.)

STANDARD BRED POULTRY FOR THE BACK LOT FELLOW (By Judge F. J. Marshall) We do not attempt to say that good mixed liens are not better than to have no hens at I'll, but in these days one cannot really afford to fool away his time and good feed upon an uncertain quantity like a bunch of mongrel hens. Who has any idea what

will be the egg production from this i

kiM of stock? One tiling sure they will lay oges of all colors which will not bring as much in market as those of uniform color and shape. The standard-bred lions will give you eges, more eggs, and better eggs, than the average scrub, to say nothing of the pleasure of handling and looking after a bunch of fine, even colored hens all of one kind and quality, and noting the improvement from time to time

in their breeding if some attention is

paid to this part of the matter, as it is usually t he case when one becomes Interested in good stock. The interest grows iroiii time to time so that one soon becomes an enthusiast. Many of you who have a little back yard room and have nut been keeping any chickens should get busy and see what you can do toward." producing some good e?gs. It will pay you -to thus turn your refuse from the kitchen though it be small into something to eat. This stuff with a little good grain will keep a few hens in good laying condition. The chances' are that some of your neighbors will soon become enough

interested to want some of your stock j or eggs for hatching. If you can sell

to them you will make a little spare change to help pay the feed bills besides doing the good act of getting them interested In the good work of producing more and better poultry. It is not so much the increased production of the great poultry farms of this country that is going to help out on war time products, so much as, that every one who has a little room for taking care of a dozen or more hens who has never been doing it before will take hold pnd do their part.

Indianaian Tells of Benefits He Recently Derived From Tanlac.

"I used to have a lot of trouble w ith my stomach but Im not bothered that way at all since I've been taking Tanlac," said Joseph Chadwick, 90S Capital avenue, Indianapolis, Ind. "My appetite was poor before I took Tanlac and what food I did eat just laid heavy in my stomach and did not digest like-it should.

' . "Tanlac has brought back my appetite in fine shape and my stomach is back in such good condition now that it takes care of what I eat, too.
