IDLE MEN RETURN TO WORK.
NEW YORK, Nov. 6. 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.

Special to the Evening Review.
PITTSBURG, Pa., Nov. 7. A

severed from the body and squeezed
In an open trunk with a vial of chlo
roform close to his nose the body of
George Hartzell, sou-in-law of Mrs.

PORTLAND. Or., Nov. 6. 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

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

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!

old, lies dead at the morgue , her
companion, James H. Gilbert, occu

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

Vlack's father to their marriage.
James H. Gilbert is the youth In the

weeks they roomed at the Winchester

DRY FARMING CONGRESS.
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."
