LINE, Sweceess May Be Attained With Plg- eons by Careful Attention to" Many Little Details. @Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) Many people can keep pigeons suc eessfully as a side issue, although this Jrequires constant oversight and care- 'ful attention to details. The greatest difficulties confronting the successful iraiser of pigeons seem to be in securing good breeding stock, and finding a mar- ket for the produce of a small flock. Pigecns are a profitable source of in- «esme on general farms where they may /eecure much of their feed from the ‘fields, provided they are not a nuisance and the loss by shooting and by hawks, ‘owls and cats 18 not large. They can also be raised successfully on farms <where they are closely confined, pro- wided the squabs can be marketed to gooé advantage. QOf the squab-raising varieties the Homer is considered-the most popular - wanlety. The habit of this bird of re- turning home If allowed freedom makes it necessary to confine pigeons purchas- ' with the Homer and Carneaur, to in- | crease the size of squabs.

The Carneaur pigeon has recently become popular as a squab producer. This variety is some- what larger than the Homer and it is stated is about as prolific. Several other varietfes of pigeons larger than the Fomer are used on a small scale in squab raising, especially in crossing The Runt Homer Pigeon Is Most Popular, 1s one of the largest, but is not as pro- lific or as good a breeder or feeder as the Homer. Some of the other varieties reported used as squab breeders are the Dra- goon, White Maltese, or hen pigeon, the White King, and the common pig- eon. Alcohol From Seawesed. According to experiments made at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, an average of about six quarts of alcohol can be obtained from each 100 pounds of seaweed. °| of those on board have perished, 30 | Maybe the Next Batch . of Pets Will Be Skiinks Portchester, N.

He suggests that they be licensed, the same as dogs. s HUNT SHIP, OBEYING SPIRIT Message From Other World Says Span- ish Steamer Valbanera Did Not Sink. Havana.—Chartered by members of the Dr. Antonio Valetti society, an or- ganization of spiritualists, a‘tugboat 18 expected to leave this port shortly i search of the long overdue Spanish steamship Valbanera, which official re- ports declare sank recently near Key ‘West, with the probable loss of all on board. SAAREAS The spiritualists claim to have re- cejved a communication at & recent se- ance from the spirit of Doctor Valetti that the Valbanera was still afloat near Cape 8al. They declare it their belief that the steamship still is helplessly drifting at sea and that, while many survivors-lieve been picked up by a small schoonét which is proceeding to some’ distant ‘Bort. i Sunday Funerals Barred. Mobile, Ala.—Burial of the dead here on Sunday is punishable by a fine of $100 under a city ordinance just adopted.

One of the most curious memorials of Livingstone is the “name tree,” near Victoria Falls. on the Zambesi. On the trunk Livingstone cut his initiat and the date 1855 on the day of his first visit to the falls. In his book giv- ing an account of this Livingstone says: “This was the only instance in which I indulged in this piece of van- ” ity « adi Ve . Home. Home cannot be given us. We may be given a house, a place to eat and sleep. This is not a home. A homc is a place of love and rest and peace. Love and rest and peace must’be-de- served, must be earned.

St. Johnsbury, Vt.—Arrested as a slacker a -year ago at his home here, after he hid fqr several days in the mountainous regjongabout the city, placed in the'servit Camp Devens through the selective“draft operation, only to desert from there after two weeks, and since that time living a hermit’s life on Victory mountain, is the history of Klmer H. Cox, who has given himself up to the authorities and is now in a hospital under observation as to his sanity. Cox says he ate bark, berries, leaves, nuts and anything that he could get his hands on. He slept in high trees, HID ON MOUNTAIN Looking Half-Starved. for fear somebody would capture him while he was sleeping. and walked in his bare feet so as not to leave any tracks, From the first Cox took a great dis- like to the war and had queer ideas concerning the army and the draft. His number was called for examina- tion by the draft board and he did not appear, nor could he be iound. Sev- eral days later he was seen in the town and an officer trailed him to a rudely constructed shelter on Victory mountain overlookiiig a swamp neur the -city, and he was arrested. He passed the physical examination and was sent with sevéral other rookies to Camp Devens early in June, 1918, and was accepted and placed in the About two weeks after he arrived there he was reported as miss- ing at roll call aud, as time drew on and nothing was heard of his where- abouts, he was listed as a deserter and the government offered a reward ¢¢ $100 for him dead or altve. While driving along on a highwzy that leads te about the foot of Victory mountain, Charles H. Howe of St. Johnsbury noticed a man, wrecked physically, covered with dirt and look- ing half- ved; half-walking and half-crawling along through the woods. | He' investigated, discovered the iden- tity-of the man and took him to town, where he was ‘placed in the county jail and later taken to a hospital.
