that poultry disease have cut the furplus .down verv. materially. There either are more poultrj diseases in the county or else there are more people re-porting them. I can not say which but the writer has had mor calls this fall from people with ailing poultry than at any time during the history of the county. During the early part of the fall we found a good deal of cholera but lately rno-t of the disease. out-breaks are tubervulrvis or worms. It is surprising to find that a large number of flock in the county are wormy especially if the chNrks were reared on yards that have been used for poultry for many years. Witt el i For T. II. Poultry tuberrulosis shows no fign of letting up. Tho bird.s generally appear lame at first and then get lighter, they gradually run down and check out. If one of the.se birds

In weaning a calf that is obtaining two gallon-, or 16 pound.' of milk per day, th amount should be reduced a pint, or one pound, per day. Following th? weaning period the calf will not gain very much in weicht until it 'is consuming greater amounts of the grain mixture and hay. At the age of six or eight months the calf will be a.s thrifty as a calf which has had milk to six months of age. Where skim milk is available, the calf should be changed from a whole milk to s!;!m milk diet when approximately two weeks old, the change being made gradually by substituting skim milk" for a portion of th? whole milk. For example, a calf receiving a gallon, or eight pounds, of wholo milk per day would receive quarts, or seven pounds, of whole milk, and one pint or pound of skim mill; on the tlrst day of th? change from whole to skim, three quarts of whole milk and one qu?.rt of skim milk on th? second day. and so on until the chanjre is comnleted and the calf

The Cultivation of Drug Plants Is iot Profitable in State A question frequently received by the Purdue University Agriculture Experiment Station is. "Can I raise medicinal or drug plants as a profitable side line and. if so. what species shall I specialize in'."' According to A. A. Hansen, of tinAgricultural Extension department, the cultivation of drug plants in Indiana is not to be recommended except where conditions are exceptionally favorable, which i rarely the case. "The widespread interest in the cultivation of medicinal plants has been created largely by the advertisements of dealers in seed.s and cuttings." said Mr. Hansen. "These advertisements are frequently very misleading In that they give the impression that the cultivation of medicinal plants offers a sure path to large profits, qu'ckly realired. Far from Offering quick and easy profit, however, drug plant farming is usually hard work, the profits are frequently pmall and the risk by disease anad other factors makes the occupation a hazardous one. One of the biggest disadvantages is the lack of exact knowledge concerning suc

cessful methods of didna! plant?, since

Ajtricultural Experiment Stations have done any work along this line. A limiting factor in the profitable cultivation of drug plants is the relatively small demand, which usually adequately taken care of by professional growers ar.d importation from abroad. Another disadvantage is the large amount of band labor necessary. For this reason, a large part of the supply of dnur plants needed can best be imported from abroad, since the American farmer cannot compete with cheap foreign labor. This is particularly true since th? war.' There are, cT course, exceptions to the foregoir.? statements. .15 :'or example the culture of peppermint, in which Indiana is the leading producer in the United States, if not in the world. Again where a woodiot exists upon the farm in which conditions are favorable, the cultivation of ginseng, golden eal and other medicinal plants may be attempted with a fair assurance of receiving reasonable profits. The initial investment, however, i heavy nnd one must be prepared to wait

(running considerable danger in th?

from four to six years for returns, meantime from diseases and weeds. Ordinarily, it is the best to leave the cultivation of medicinal plants to the expert, since the risk is too great for' the amateur.

His throat was slashed ar.d a trail of blood uti the white squares of the checkt red marble floor apparently indicate! the escape of the assassin. "1 might have killed him." sii-1 M. Jonquelle. "You might have killej him. lie mipht have beer. killed l.y a man no longer living." The lat theory startled the Plr.voy. on With flic Story. CHAPTER III. I'. I- a conceivable theory." icmarked Monsieur. Jonquelle. "that Dcrnburg Pasha was struck down by a hand tint we can no lo ager consider to be lixirg. "But if you please, we will lake up these theories in then order. Dil I murder Dcrnburg Pasha? It is nn interesting hypothesis, and 1 should be giad to consider it at soire length. IP, it seems to require no extended deductions to conclude it. We have shown that the mysterious visi: v.-ho called on Dernburs last night was not h'.s assassin, because the evidences which seem so to indicate were laid down by design and did not come about by accident. They were laid down by the intention of some person, some person who wished to establish that tin v'sitor was the assassin. But tl.fc vhiior himself ccil not have wished to establish that he was the assassin; consequently he eould not have made these indicatory evidences, and therefore he was not the assassin of Dcrnburg Pasha.'' He paused. "And now, mons'eur. as I was the visitor who called on Dernburs Pasha last night, it must be ilear that I was not the assiin that stiurk him down. Th.eso conclusion? may seem to interlock with a slight obscurity. But if you reflect upon them, monsieur, you will observe that they arc sound and convincing." Thrre was a moment"? silence. The Oriental did not speak, and the Prefect of Police continued: "Now. monsieur, we approach the second hypothesis: did you murder Dcrnburg Pasha ? "Here, monsieur, one finds himself confronted with certain difficulties, you took charge of this h-.u.at tnc moment if was ascertained that the man was dead." The Envoy interrupted: "I did, monsieur. As a representative of the Turkish government, it wa my duty to take charge at once of the property of one of its murdered citizens. I came at once and took charge of it." "That is true, monsieur," centinued the Prefect of Police. "You came as you had the right to do, a.d you took over his house as it was jour duty to dc. And from th:r bare wo may go forward with the hypothesis in ibs first inq-.'iry nlrnely. did I create these false evidences on the floor of this drawing roam, or did you. or did the agency not now living undertake it V" "Now. monsieur, let us consider thoi-e suggestions in a reverse order. If Dernburs Pasha was struck down by a hand not moving alive in th" wot Id after he die l on the floor of the library yonder, then ruch a hand could not have gone forward with the manufacture of these fahe evidences of his assassination, and wo may dismiss h. I ean:.;-t have manufactured them, monsieur, becauce it is not conceivable tint one undertaking the assassination would construct evidence of his crime lo convict himself. Therefore, monsieur, by elimination, we seem to arrive at the conclusion that it wa.-: you who manufactured them." The Envoy's face seemed to form itself into a sort of plastic mask. "Now," Jonquelle went on. "if you manufactured them. inrn.-iour. it was with a deliberate objec. That otject would be to fasten the- crime upon another. But one does pot un jertake to faster, a crime upon another without an adequate reason in hitnlf. Now, what reason monsieur, could you have had lor wishing ta establish tha: I. wl. eaPed upon Dc-rnburg late l ist night, had accomplished his murder and tied, carefully dropping splotches of blood on the white squares of tl e floor of this drawing room, and es(.rair:" vet n wall covered wnh a

coaling of dust which I did-no, r.-! move? What could have been yotirj object in I'r.certaking to establish, th-se facts, if you were your.-elfj guiltless of his death V ! The man".- rply was qui:e simpl-, anil without emotion. I "Why. monsieur, should 1 wish tJ a-sass-nate Dernburg Pasha?" f "Did you not wish to take oy r j this liouceV" replied the Prefect of Police. "And if you tool: it o". r 1 you would take it over with what, it contains. Let me ?how you mon-( sicur, the treasure that it contains! "j He stooped over, slipped he point j of a knife-blade under oiv of tho j large white mat bio square-: jn the drawing loom Moor and lifted it up. ! The-e squares had been laid down j on wooden sills, nailed together, and, floored over underneath. Each, --quare had. therefore, a sort of ;

wishe to establish ft theory. It is fortunate, monsieur, that it is I who considered these evidences against vou. for it is I who know that Dernburg Pasha was dead when you arrived in this house. He paused. "And from the wound in his throat, I knew at or.ee what hand it wa' that hirticted if a hand not now living!" "The hand of the deal man!" achoed th" Oriental. "You mean the hand of a dead man?" "I mean the hand of the dead Dernburg Pa.?ha " replied the Prefect.

J "The wound began heavily on th tieft side and tailed off to the right. (That is the slash of .a suicide. ; Death-wound, inflicted by one in

tent on .taking his ewn life, are always inflicted on the left side, beeaus? they ar? undertaken with the

! strength of the person undertaking
