Capt. Eli D. Edmunds sails from New York on June 16th, on the S. S. Finland for San Francisco. After spending a few weeks visiting the Panama and California Exposition, be will .return home via Astoria, Portland. Seattle. . Spokane, the Yellowstone Park, Dulutb. the Great Lakes to Buffalo and New York. At the close of the Civil War, fifty years ago, Capt. Edmunds, then a master in /be U. S. Navy, was ordered by the U. S. Navy Department to San Francisco and assume command of the U» S. Coast Survey Steamer "Wm. L. Ma rev." During the next three years he was engaged in surveying, charting and recliarting the coast and harbors and views of California, Oregon and Washington. He will doubtless see many wonderful and surprising changes that have taken place since his arrival there, fifty years apJ. The Trenton State Gazette says: "Short shift should be made of Dr. James Kiing who is under arrest in New York City for having sold cocaine. morphine and heroin, to school children. "Kling concealed the drugs in mechanical tops that were disposed of to girls principally. When arrested be was occupying a handsomely furnish) d apartment and had in his pt*»ecssion drugs to the value of $5(1.000. It is said that he has disposed of $200,000 worth of "dope" to New York dealers in the past few weeks, in violation of the Harrison law. The fearful effect of the drugs sold by Kling upon men and women who have become addicted to their use, has been strikingly revealed since the Harri- 1 son low went into effect, and the man Or woman who, with the purpose of enriching themselves, tempts boys and girls fa fall victims to the drug habit, commits a crime almost as serious as murder. "Kling should be stowed snugly away in a penitentiary and kept there the rest of his days." We do not agree with the Gazette. A - man like this is so degenerated that he is a menace to all with whom he comes in contact and if there ever is a proper subject for capital punishment such a man is it .

KEEPING IT DARK. New Jersey Women's Canvaaa. I "Gentlemen, ought you to refuse tt j discuss your vote on woman suffrage " with the ladies? "Women of all opinions look to you as tbelr only representatives to diarusi- . with them a question which so vital I v affects them. Are yon not the only ( representatives women hive? . "Very few men are so unfair as not to see that we have a right to discus.* 1 this question with them," said a suf • fraglst the other day. "When a man refuses to say what his opinions are he usually gives himself away in tbe i course of a few minutes' conversation , I mnst admit however, that occasionally I am surprised. "A short time ago I was calling on the principal minister of a small New Jersey town, who made the extraordinary statement that until the mem hers of his church were agreed u|K>n the subject It was his duty not to ex press an opinion on lt " "I should, however," he added, 'be glad tP-frc'P you by giving you any other Information about the town thai I can.' "'Can you tell me If Mrs. W. la in sympathy with us?" 1 asked. "'Mrs. W. Is one of the most highly respected women In the neighborhood and certainly one of the most Intelll gent She is sure to be with you,' was the unexpected reply." E. W. The Straight Issue. Lincoln once said that this republic 1 was founded on -tbe rule of "root hog or die." and women are no leas aroenn ' ble to that principle than are men. ' The amiable theory that lt la man's 1 function to provide and woman's func- ' Hon to be sheltered is a living He, as ' millions of women wage earners can 1 testify. Sometimes man provides and 1 sometimes he doesn't The woman ' who is sheltered today may be work 1 in a factory tomorrow to support f herself and her children. Hunger ' no sex. Want knows no sex. < Necessity knows no sex. Law knows 8 no sex. Property knows no sex. Only 8 the ballot box knows sex. ' But the ballot box once knew rank once knew land and primogeniture ' once knew Income and money and family. All those paraphernalia ol I privilege have been swept away, aud the disability of sex will follow. In steady sweep of democracy the time will come when the present op position to woman suffrage will seem li shortsighted and senseless as the t opposition to manhood suffrage r seems. s

POULTRY • MTS • JUST AN ORNAMENTAL DUCK ' Whit* Created Variety Have No Bpo. cial Value to Farmer — Not Bred to Any Groat Extent. „ (By O. HOWARD.) crested white duck may be called an ornamental dock, much the same as Polish chickens. They are not bred to any great extent In this country, and they are seldom seen except In the show rooms. They have no special valne to the farmer, as more easily bred and more profitable

birds are to be found for commercial purposes. These ducks have a medium sized and bill; a large, well-balanced crest upon the crown of the head; a rather long neck; a medium length breast round and full; body of medium length; wings that fold smoothly; hard, stiff tall feathers, with well-curled feathers in the tall of the drake. Their eyes are large and bright and of a blue color. The shanks, toes, and webs are of a light color. The standard weight of the adult drake Is seven pounds; adult duck, six pounds; young drake, six pounds, and young duck, Ave pounds. FEED FOR FOWLS In Repeated Testa Hene Given 8k!m Milk Make Much Better Record Than Thoee Given Water. To test the ralne of skim milk for hens, sixty pullets were put in two pens, equally divided, of one variety and all as near of an age as possible. They were fed exactly alike, '■

1 keeping strict account of their feed, d. but given different drinks. One pen y had sweet skim milk, while the other had only plenty of fresh water. This test was begun on November 1 • and accounts were balanced with both i pens on May 1 following. The hens I that drank the water had but a little t over half as much credit for eggs | laid, while their feed had cost nearly j a third more than the hens which | were fed skim milk. Some days In I the very coldest weather the thirty j milk-fed pullets laid twenty-eight eggs, i and their average for January was f twenty-four eggs dally. The skim-milk-fed hens not only produced many ; more eggs, bnt they did not consume as much food as those In the other i pen. Since then these tests have been £ repeatedly tried with different breeds and with the same renlts. Pigeons sometimes live to be eigh* years old. Clean eggs bring better prices than ■ dirty ones. The smaller the poultry quarters, the cleaner they must be kept. The "was sick but well again" hen It ' not the one that fills the egg basket | Fresh buttermilk is recommended for diarrhea In chicks, some saying II will cure bad cases. The poultry yard is a good place for the boy to begin a real partnership in his father's farm. Never ship a chicken to a enstome. that you would not want sent to yon for the same amount of money. Look out for the draft* in the chicken honse. Fix all suspicious open places. Roup in the henhouse meant ' no money In the pocket. Water in fresh and constant supply Is a thing that must be supplied U chicks do well, or If eggs are fur nished as they should be. • A good way to feed skim milk Is to use lt with soaked ground corn oi other grain, but even then lt should be fed sparingly at the start. • • • i Those farmers who give their turkeys plenty of range and secure new . breeding stock frequently, are making good money growing turkeys. Do not simply throw the water out of the drinking vessels and put Id fresh water, but wash the vessels thoroughly every time you change the water. A cheap thing so many times scantI lly furnished or not furnished at all I Is sharp grit. It would seem that a « tiling so easily provided wouid be In constant supply, but quite often these Are the very things left undone
