The Na tional Association of Manufacturers publishes in the current Issue of the American Industries, its official mag azine, a statement on trade condi tions issued by Its 3000 members, representing every branch of the in dustry. A resume of the information con tained In replies to telegrams sent by the magazine shows: The percentage of replies received indicates that an average of 135 men each will be added to the majority of manufacturing plants in the asso ciation by December 1. The reportB show that at least one-half of the 3000 members of the National Asso ciation of Manufacturers expect to add to their forces more than 200, 000 worklngmen. Taking this as a basis, says the aritcle, it is safe to assume that the 13,000 manufacturers, who, accord ing to the censue of 1900, employed an average each of 100 men or over, will add at least 50 per cent to their present force, making a total In round figures, of 650,000 men. In other wordB, with the continuance of the business advance, the impor aant manufacturing interests of the country will be abled to increase their present force by more than one-half a million men to met the market demands for their products.

This is the time of the year when the Ore gon apple comes to the front, and it Is hero. With the Winter Banana, which Is reputed to be the flower of applo evolution, holding first place and selling at the retail stores at two for a quarter; maguillcent Spltsenbergs in second place and moving at $f a box, the apple list just now Is a big one, and there is in it everything that anybody could want. In the displays of npplcs at the stores now there are Ortleys, Kings, Newton Plplns, Baldwins, Jonathans and half a dozen ofther favorite fall and winter vnrities, all the equal of the best apples grown anywhere in the east, and selling at retail here at $1.50 to f 2.50 a box. Local deal ers say that the demand for apples, now that .the summer and short season fruits are nioro or less out of the way, Is steadily growing stronger. It 1b now the main feature of the fruit market. . THE POULTRY YARD. Better clean out all surplus stock. Do not winter any stock that will not give profit. Don t forget to gather fn road dust or sifted coal ashes, bo that the hens will have something to wallow in this winter. If eggs have become soiled in the neat, waah them with clean water with the chill removed. Soap must not be used. Close up the leaks in the roof and all crevices In the poultry house before cold weather sets In, It will prevent discomfort and sick hobs. Profitable winter eggs con not be secured from old hens. Such hens are apt to bo profitable In the spring and summer. Rely upon pullets on ly for winter eggs. Never alow any one with soiled hands to gather eggs, for a little grease or oil on the shell of an egg will make It worthless aB far as hatching la concerned. The pullets have no doubt been on wide range this summer. If hatched In April or May, they should be put into their winter quarters by the first of November at the latest. No mater how you feed and care for them hens two years old or over will not begin to lay until late fn the winter, and then not enough to pay tho expenses of keeping them. Brown-shelled eggs will command two cents a dozen more In the mar kets than the pale or white-shelled ones, but the farmer generally leaves that to the commission man to Hnd out. Whitewashing poultry houses two or three times a year, with a little carbolic acid and coal-oil in the wash, will destroy miles and lice. use the wash hot and thin, and put It Into all cracks with a little brush. Tho Idea that all brown-shelled eggs are rich In mitrllfvo qualities and white-shelled ones poor, Is nn old notion nnd not supported by facts. The eggs of the White Leg horn have good enlist unco and avor. Eggs will keep for some time in dry atmosphere hen's eggs for about ten days; ducks' eggs for one week; turkeys' and geese egjjs for twenty days. Nevertheless, for hat- htng purposes they Bhould he as fresh as possible. Caiiessness In leaving old water dishes standing about where the hens can have access to filthy, stag nant water, and allowing the fowln to eat decuyed anlinul matter, cause great trouble in the shupe of bowel diseases and limberneck. 'oo many formers consider tho lo cation, construction and condition of the poultry house of little Impor tance. The same people growl about the amount of feed tho Middles con sume and flud fault with the hens because they cease lo lay when eggs are high in price. Now is the time to crowd the late chicks if you want to get them In the market before the price fit! Is. I have found curd, made from sour milk seasoned with aat and peper and a few spoonfuls of blood meal and ground bone mixed In, a great appetizer; It makes the chicks grow rapidly. Do not be deceived by thinking that if your fowls get thu roup they can be easily cured. Genuine roup. when once seated. Is a very difficult disease lo eradicate, and it Is a very easy matter to avoid it. Keep the hen house dry by allowing free ven Illation and avoid allowing the hens to roost in a draft. Few eggs may be expected from the hens that roost In tree lops, old sheds or any place that ttey tjuy line!

Gilbert, occu pies n cell In prison, nnd Dr. George W. O'Donnell, of this city, has been I arrested on a chargo of murder. The boy has been going by the name of Gibson and was supporting the, girl by acting as a waiter at the Falrmount Hotel, Dr. O'Connell wns arrested nnd arrnigned before Police Judge Con Ian this morning on a charge of murder, in cnuslng the death of Miss Van Vlack by performing an unlaw ful operation. The girl's death oc curred on November 2 at the Hah nemann hospital, ostensibly as the result of an operation for appendi citis, performed by Dr. Ward, of that Institution. Yesterday the hospital authorities applied to Coroner Ice land for a death cortiilcato. The re port they entered aroused the suspi cions of the Coroner and an Investi gation followed, whtch resulted in tho discovery that the operation had been performed by Dr. O'Connell, whoso arrest followed. Then came tho entire story of the young couple's flight from home, be muse of the opposition of Miss Van Vlack's father to their marriage. James H. Gilbert is the youth In the case. Some weeks ago they eloped -ind came to this city. Without heir parents' consent they could se- ure no marriage license, but being :tlono In n big, strange city they lived logelher as man and wife. For some weeks they roomed at the Winchester Hotel. Here the girl fell III nnd Gilbert applied for assistance to Dr. O'Connell, who is alleged to have treated her. HOW DID YOU VOTE?

Finns are now being made for the Third Trans-Missouri Dry Farming congress, which will be held la Cheyenne, Wyoming, February 23, 24, and 25, next, and will be a con vention of International Importance. While this 1b In a sense a new or ganization its Importance as an eco nomic movement is easily estimated from the fact that when the irriga tion water has all been impounded statistics show that water can be placed upon but one-ninth of the available and well located agricul tural land. Even the most skeptical critics of tho effort to populate the unlrrlgated lands are now beginning to admit that In the fact of their constant claims that failure would surely follow attempts at so-called "dry farming," the crops from un lrrlgated farms both experimental and oporative have "made good" tho claims of the "dry farmers."
