First Hnrrimnn Trnln Pnsscs Up
Crowd Gathered to Welcome It
The first passenger train to
conic in over the Deschutes line
to Madras was an ice train. At
least that is the way it seemed
to the half hundred or more rep
resentative citizens who went to
the temporary depot on Agency
Plains in a dozen or so automo
biles to await the coming of the
special bringing in Mr. Krutsch
nitt, Mr. O.Brien, Mr. Botschke
and other officials of that line.
In anticipation of giving the rail
way magnates as hearty a wel
come as possible the crowd was
all in readiness at the depot!
when the train pulled in, but the i
train never stopped at the depot !
going on two or three hundred
yards and passing up the Madras
people like a "white chip." The
majority of the crowd climbed
into their autos and returned to
town while a few followed the
train to the point where it stop
ped. 1
After a time Mr. Boschke and
Mr. O'Brien came out of their
car, Mr. Krutschnitt being indis
posed. The officials declined to
visit the city that evening, say
ing that the would be down the
following morning. However,
the Madras people had no more
than returned when Mr. O'Biien
and Mr. Boschke followed and
spent the evening in town. It
was a funny business all around
and the evening was frosty.

A JUDOE AT WOISK.
seen often at ten of tho old fairs al
together. Few fair Judges get less than $10
per day and expenses, and some at
whiter shows receive from $2,"j to
$100 per day. It's no cinch to Judge
today, when entries are so large,
breeds so many, competition so keen,
exhibitors so wise and breed stand
ards change so often.
Judges are born, not made by a
license of the American Poultry as
sociation. Exhibitors won't stand funny busi
ness. They demand for Judges men of
strict honesty, common sense nnd
practical experience In tho breeds
scored.
A tricky Judge soon gets It in the
neck, an overbearing know-it-all and
bullhead who will not acknowledge a
proved mistake gets turned down, a
Judge Avho boozes and swears at
shows Into oblivion quickly goes,
while an association that owns tho
Judge or allows a trickster to do the
scoring soon closes lis doors.
It Is wise for Judges to preside at
shows away from home, as they may
be charged with bias.
They should never exhibit whore
they Judge, even if their birds ate
scored by others.

FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.
Athens. Pa., boasts a hen that lays
such Hat eggs that a cluck cannot turn
them. She squeezed herself going
through a picket fence. Athens egg
dealers are now advocating corsets
and tight lacing for all hens, as tho
Hat hen fruit may be packed In small
er crates, with less breakage.
If you nail up a cabbage In the coop
place It so high that the chickens must
Jump to get a bite. Keep out Mother
Turkey. She'll cat the whole head and
next day bo dead.
A queen bee Is snid to live from two
to five years, a worker from forty days
to six months and a drone about live
weeks. Hut lots of diono hens live
on farms for years and years and yet
eat their heads off every day.
When hens are on range it is wise
to watch their crops. Some hens come
homo with crops almost bursting, while
others loaf around tho buildings and
wait for thu next feed or return from
the Held with littlo In their bread bas
ket. A poor forager Is nearly always a
poor layer.
Squire Lot a oi' Columbia, Pa.. lias a
hen that lays an egg with a handle.
As the nillro.ul companies are now es
tablishing poultry plants for fresh eggs
and broilers tills breed of hen will Just
suit tho Panhandle.
The Northern Pacilie railway Is so
pleased with the returns from its Ur
000 I.etrlioin layers that it has also
added ."too t ows and a truck farm. If
those 1 1 .f ti ii i hens go on strike Petalii
ma county. 'al.. with her 2.W)0,000
hens can furnish strike breakers.
The movement of certain poultry
editors to haw themselves appoint'. J
us poultry Judges Is about as amuilu
as licensing Judge. The boys are get
ting fat laughing about it
A Chicago woman was arrested for
locking her tlv -.veur-old son In the
clih ken coop at night while she wvnt
to amusements. They locked her in
