THIS SUNDAY OEEGONIAX, POItTXAXD, OCTOBER 22. 191G. 11 l The lighting Man. by William A. Brady. Illustrated. l..-0. The Bobba-Merrill , ('ompany, Indianapolis. "William A. Brady is known as a suc cessful prize-fight promoter and theat rical magnate, and also as the husband of the beautiful Grace George, actress. This book, written by Mr. Brady, is a frank mirror of his busy life. It la courageously written by a man for men, is more than ordinarily interest ing, and is a variety of one surprise after another. In this autobiography of 27 pages, the pronoun "I" is used a good deal, but in the nature of the story this seems to be excusable. Mr. Brady admits on page two that ; he began his business career as a "pea nut butcher" on the Southern Pacific Kail road. Yet he says that today he is paying- the railroads of the United States something like $400,000 a year, for the transportation of his companies , of players and properties. - Air. Brady's most valuable asset seems to be his gift of discerning qual ity in others, and placing that quality on the market. "I don't know how I got the notion," writes our author, "but I got it somehow when I was very young (in San Francisco) and it was. that a man should bo known as a. fighting man. It may have come to mo from my experience in school, where T held my own with my fists rather than with my head. This gave me a reputation that although most of it was bluff stood me in good stead, and kept many of the bigger boys from in fringing on my rights. On the other hand, it may have been the Irish in me. Another policy that I adopted was that which makes for success in the business world. It was: 'Never tackle anything but champions. Nothing else is worth while.' Kxperience convinces me that this applies to all fields of endeavor. It is just as easy to engage the interest of a millionaire as it is to engage the interest of a shoe clerk. You must make your Rcheme big enough to be worth his while that's ail." Karly in his young life, Mr. Brady left San Francisco for New York,- in which latter city, he says, he often went hungry, as a. boy. For a consid erable time he was an actor and played the signal man in "Under the Gas light" and the Indian in "The Octoroon," and. "if I do say it myself, I was very good. San riego was a little bit of a town. Los Angeles was a village. Se attle had one street -and no theater. We used to play in aochool Jiall there and In Portland used the second floor of a market building. There were no railroad connections between California and Oregon, and when the traveling companies did not take the -Coast steamer they used to go over the moun tains by wagon." Mr. Brady made money in the theat rical business, especially in producing4 After Dark, and he started his first bank account with something like $13, 600. Mr. Brady was quick -to see that there was big money in managing a prize fighter who was successful, and his first fighting big star was James J. Corbett. The latter discovered quickly that the famous John L. Sullivan, boxer, was more or less "bluff, and that Sul livan could not hit with his left hand. Brady hired Corbett at a salary of $175 per week to box in the play "After Xark." Testimony is offered to show Corbett as a great prize-ring general, and as a master of uncanny psychology in instilling fear into his opponents before they began to fight. It is re lated that Sullivan was afraid of Cor bett, and was "licked" before he en tered the ring. It is stated, candidly, that Corbett could have defeated Sul livan in three rounds, hut . that he "didn't take any chances"- (of hurting business) and did the Job in 21 rounds. Inside information is furnished about Corbett, Fitzsimmons, Jeffries. "Jack" Johnson, "Charlie" Mitchell, Jesse Willard and other fighters. Mr. Brady says when he married Grace George she inuifp Vl i m r T- n rtl i t ft .Inn hio rr,ina- tion with the prize ring, and he con sented. Then he became a play pro ducer, and made lots of money with the New England character piny. "Way Down Fast." After the financial strin gency of 1907. Brady saw "Jim" Jef fries fight Armstrong and was so much impressed with the then unknown Jef fries' abilities as a fighter that he de .. termined to manage Jeffries. The theatrical business was not prosperous just then a fact of which Grace George (Mrs. Brady) was quite well aware and she consented to her husband again entering the prize ring as a flght-man-ncer. to manage Jeffries against Fitz simmons. The result Is athletic history. The Tnifflers, by Samuel Merwin. $1.3."!. II lustrated. The Bobbs-Merrill Company, Indianapolis. Humorists for some little time past have been poking fun at the girl who J1kes unconventionality, who scorns marriage, and prefers to work for her living. In "The Trufflers" Mr. Merwin has depicted in an attractive novel the business girl in tne business world, from a serious point of view. Both young men and women will read the story and argue about It. ' The Bcenea are set in and around New York City, particularly in Green wich Village, with its writing, artistic and theatrical activities. The term "trufflers" provokes curi osity. Our novelist makes one of his im i ai. in nut in, mua ueiine 1 1 : "The 'truffler' means a young woman who turrw from duty to tie pursuit of employment. She builds no home, rars no young, produces nothing. She ffoea in for expression. Instead of self abnegation. .She is out for herself, hunting the truffles, the delicate bits, playing with love and life" (p. 454). As a matter of fact, the Worm thinks ju-ivately that the "truffler" is the liero of the novel, Peter Kricson Mann. Of course. Marin does not think so. Mr. Mann is a, professional play wright and scenario writer. At the opening of the novel he had not met his girl. Suddenly he sees a girl on the-xtreet. a girl who Is eating an apple. She is snaped like a boy. She is Miss Sue Wilde, realistic actress in a cheap theater, formerly a .college jrirl. She won the daughter of aclergy Irian. . Mann, who has saved $7000. loves Sue Wilde, ami he is euch a clumsy lover that at fi rst she repels him. Mann writes subjects for the film business. He eventually has as other affinities wo other young women, Mhs Maria Tonlfettl, manicurist in a barber shop, and Grace Deering, actress. Most of Mr. Mann's people spend their leisure time In quarreling with One another, love-making, eating in tough restaurants and behaving gen erally, as Bohemians. Sir Illustrated Calendar for 1917.

Hon- We Klerted Lincoln, bv- A. J. IMtton hoeftr. Harper & Bios.. New York City. It is of notable Interest In this sec tion that the author of this interesting portraiture of the great war President is the father-in-law of Leon Hirsch, secretary of the Meier & Frank Com pany, of this city. Mr. Dlttenhoefer's book is one of the most desirable of the - smaller books on Lincoln and will win many friends by reason of its wealth of anecdote, fairness of presentation and condensation of prov'd historical facts. Mr. Dittenhoefer is a New York lawyer, was a contemporary of Lin coln and was elector from New York State in the campaign of 1864, being, probably, the only survivor on that ticket. It is stated that Mr. Dittenhoefer was the first to utter that now historical phrase: "We are coming. Father Abra, ham, five hundred thousand more." At the outset of the agitation lead ing up to the Civil War. Mr. Ditten hoefer, who had come from South Caro lina to New York, became a Republi can.

M- and YlodemPouliry Culture I y?K Vnt The call of the hen ts abroad in the land. It la luring, per suasive and eloquent. Thou sands are listening to It. and in most cases this "call" is compel ling; the realization often proves more pleasant than the anticipa tion. Multitudes, are drawn toward the culture of fine fowls. They are fairly Impatient to get at the business, but they are first ask ing a very sensible question, "How shall I begin?" It Is rery Important that this query should be well answered. A leap in tne dark here will be bad for the leaper and bad for the work Itself. This Spring will be an excellent time to begin, yet it is none too soon at this moment to get plans on paper and theor'ies by the end. BY a. It. SMITH. Author and Practical Foultryman. IN the first place one must have the rVal "chicken fever." There is not much doing without this. A seal. whether "according to knowledge" or not, is the first asset In the business. No man bas the "root of the matter" in him until he prefers to think more about chickens than anything else. There Is a hundredfold more in the breeding of fine chickens than the un initiated suspect. It is a Nation-wide game. Yes, it is world-wide; for, be fore Europe was torn by the present cataclysm, international poultry con ventions were being held. The world wide movement will advance with in creasing speed when the people again have peace. Meanwhile we Americans must make the most of our opportuni ties. "Chicken fever" used to be laughed at as a weakness. Today it Is ap plauded as an eminently worthy and timely seal for an avocation that chal lenges the best there Is In the biggest brains and the fattest purses. It is no child's play it Is a man's Job. Tsecry Mwat Be AesjalreeL Kvery human likes a pet. and this Is the real secret of the poultrynian's en thusiasm. There Is a native love for every beautiful animal, although this love may lie dormant for year a. Thou sands of people know nothing about beautiful, fowls, and therefore care no thingabout them. Cultivate in your soul a worthy seal for the peaceful bird that not only lays and pays, but fills the eye with beauty, and satiafles the mind. Study poultry books and magazines, the standard of perfection and the agricultural bulle tins; note the pictures and descriptions of each breed of individuals, trios, pens and flocks, and from these select a breed that Is best suited to your par ticular locality, ideas and purposes. From books and papers you ret not only enthusiasm, but "wisdom," which is the principal thing. You'll And this especially true in poultry culture. It's not only the man who feels, but the man who knows, who will get most pleasure and most profit from the breeding of good fowls. Peruse the books and papers, therefore, as the lawyer and the doctor, the preacher and the professor, dally search for the lat est findings of. the foremost specialists in their respective lines, lou cant get too much theory. If It is of the right brand, before you begin. Choose Dreed That Pleases. Do not begin with mongrels. You may get as many eggs; but your in terest in poultry culture will soon weaken. Choose a breed. There Is something about thoroughbred stock that fascinates the eye and compels and holds the Interest. Domestic biooded fowls are not registered; but if your pen is of pure-bred stock, your admlra tion of it and your zeal for Its care and its increase will be tenfold greater. In sist on the highest type of aristocracy in your poultry yards. A little "caste' among your birds will mean more cash In your purse and more courage in their culture. .

This variety of duck, which is for mally recognized by the American Poul try Association as a distinct breed, is rarely shown at the Winter exhibitions, chiefly on account of lack of classifica tion: but often at the large Fall fairs score or more will be exhibited. As a rule, they are white in plumage, like the Pekin duck, and of approximately the same size. They have orange yel low legs and beaks, and are noted for a large crest or topknot of feathers on the biack of their heads. This must be firm;, the larger it is the better the sjxii imen. Their origin is indeterminate. Crest ed white ducks have no special utility mas. the largest breed in ttre world, and second to none in beauty and in dignity of bearing. There Is the sprightly and beautifully spangled Hamburg at the other extreme in size and temperament. If you want eggs "first- last and all the time." pick from the Mediterranean class. They are beautiful, they do not get broody, they are famed the world over for their laying qualities; but they are high-strung little animals, and will need correspondingly high fences and a higher grade of tact and patience in caring for them. If you desire not only eggs but meat and motherhood, and at the same time Many enter the poultry business with their entire attention cen tered on the equipment of the plant and the production of the chickens and eggs. They do not seem to realize that the greater the number of chickens they rear, the greater also is the need for the most energetic, improved 'selling methods.

If you desire purely fancy fowls, try the so-called "ornamental" classes. There is no taste or fancy or utility purpose that cannot be- fully satisfied. Cet Everything la Readiness. A henhouse is the first consideration in the way of preparation. One of the most delightful experiences of a poul terer's beginning is to build a new hen house according to the latest ideals and then stock it with a fine flock of 'pullets of his favorite breed. It will not be necessary to purchase a large number of thoroughbreds at once. All the better if you are finan cially able: but If economy -must be streets E. Olln Eldrldge. psrrtor.

Their breeders Etato that they are good layers' and grow well, developing equally as fast as the Pekin. Although possessing these util ity qualities, breeding stock would nec essarily cost more because of its vari ety, and those endeavoring to estab lish a commercial duck farm would naturally stock it with Pekin or Indian. Kunners because they could obtain the naturally large auantity of breeding dt:rks at considerably less cost. The drakes weigh six to eight pounds, and the ducks five to seven, pounds, according to age. The ducks I are good layers and will sit, hatch and rear the ducklings. practiced, a splendid trio of breeders may be purchased now and the house tilled up with cheaper grades for lay ing purposes until such time as they can be replaced by the offspring fron the thoroughbreds bred from the full bloods, and the inferior ttock may be disposed of at the end of the laying season. Next year the house may be filled with beautiful birds of your own production. There are many kinds of houses many of which are claimed by their re spective champions to be "the best." A few general principles must be kept In mind. Other things are among the nonessential. A dry location with drainage away from the house: south ern exposure: largest possible daily bath of sunlight: plenty of fresh air but no deadly drafts: comfortable and amole sleeping quarters; the greatest possible conveniences for keeping the house clean, and for the general care of the flock Winter and Summer and under all conceivable circumstances. Strain, Stamina and Health. It Is - well to purchase foundation stock from a strain that has a solid reputation for "heavy laying" qualities. There's a difference. Some hens are loafers instead of layers. The poultry man who does not discriminate from the very beginning will be likely to lose his interest in the work. Nothing keeps the amateur's seal at white heat so much as a steady supply of eggs Winter and Rummer. Insist above all things on strong stamina and perfect health In the fowls that you purchase. Be certain that you get no weaklings for your cash, and no victims of roup or other dreaded poultry diseases. Test newly purchased birds by themselves a few days before putting them in pens with stock that you value highly. It must never be forgotten that poul- ' try culture is a fine art. It isn't un skilled work. To master it requires years of study and experience. The amateur who begins with this full un derstanding of the case will run little risk of failure; but if he enters upon the work with the idea that "anyone can keep hens." and that there is noth ing in it that requires study and pa tient Investigation and experiment year after year, he may regret soon that he ever entered the game. Thousands are fllnding pleasure, ideal recreation and not a little profit in this great and rap idly growing modern -industry. There Is ample room for thousands more.
