PRINCE EDWARD NOW DUKE OF CORNWALL
LONDON—Prince Edward, eldest son of King George and heir apparent
o the throDe. who is known in his family circle as "David.” is not
'-et prince of Wales, though his father of course will confer that
Jile on him later. However, the lad became, immediately on the
- eih of King Edward, duke of Cornwall and the possessor of immense
.winded estates that yield a very large revenue. By statute, the duke of
Cornwall Is subject to no minority, so the boy could, if he wished, take his
seat in the house of lords at once and cast his vote. The duke of Cornwall
must be a son of the sovereign as well as heir apparent. Prince Edward,
like his father, is having a thorough training in the navy.
ENGLISH EGGTRAIN
Effort to Educate Farmer to
Value of Poultry Industry.
Agricultural Organization Society, In
Which Agricultural Co-Operation
of England Is Focused Is Orig
inator of Idea.
London —A campaign quite novel to
England has started with the first
of the English demonstration egg
trains. Its official name is the Soi^th
Wales demonstration train. It bears
aloft its title in big lettering and on
either side are the names of the two
societies which have organized the
endeavor. The Agricultural Organiza
tion society, in w hich the agriculturist
co-operation of England is focused, is
one. The National Poultry Organiza
tion society, whence the idea ema
nated. is the other.
The train is a pioneer. Since the
value of co-operation in the poultry in
dustry was discovered requests for
depots have come In thousands. In
the last six years the society
has striven to interest a rather
lethargic public and less than thirty
def»ote were started. It is now ex
pected that 100 will be organized be
fore the year is out and this hundred
represents only a percentage of eligi
ble localities.
So egg trains can be expected pres
ently to travel east and north as
well as west. The train which trav
erses the south of South Wales is
rather like the hare in a paper chase
It drops literature behind it wherever
it goes anc a large pack, it is hoped,
will pick up the trail and follow the
lead.
The train is first and foremost mis
sionary. Britain, as well as Wales, is
in outer darkness from the point of
view of the scientific poulterer, and
in his dialect requires above all
things instruction in "candling “ The
c^arSe is that Wales does not know
a gtod fowl when It sees it. which is
seldom. It is innocent of the arts of
cramming and of trussing even such
fowls as it produces. It has yet to
discover the value of the breakfast
egg. and is totally unaddicted to the
necessary precaution of passing each
egg in front of a bright light before
handing it on to the consumer.
Welshmen are unaware of the dis
cover?. which was wei! known to Ro
man poultry keepers 2.000 years ago.
that Infertile eggs remain "breakfast
*
eggs" longer than the fertile. It
6hort the poultryman's art is in a bac
way westward.
The missionary train is modeled ex
actly on its American prototype. Prai
rie farmers, hungry for scientifii
knowledge, flock even from great dis
tances to the stopping places of thi
agricultural demonstration trains
which are sent out frequently by ;
| scientific government working througi
scientific institutions. They find ot
assembling at the siding just what thi
Welsh farmers In the shires of Car
I earthen, Cardigan and Pembroki
will find at intervals.
Before their eyes, as the side o
the demonstration van is let down
are unfolded the engines of the Indus
! lry the finished works of art
! The onlookers can themselves pass
| before the Informing flames on th<
patent lamp eggs carefully selectee
| to exhibit all the vices and virtues o:
; the egg. i
The idea of the co-operative depot;
which the demonstration train is tt
i Popularize has already appealed
I strongly to the Welsh small holders
i Enthusiastic meetings have been held
and addresses delivered and a mas;
of correspondence has reached thf
headquarters of the National Pou’trj
Organization society. So the egg and
poultry train is giving its first dem
onstration in South Wales. The ex
Penses are largely supplied by thf
money allotted by the government tc
the Agricultural Organization society
which admirably directs English co
operation from its center at Dacr«
house, Westminster.
The organizing assistance of thf
Great Western railway, which ha;
made several attempts to help smal
holders, has smoothed the working ol
the campaign. It is hoped that thf
success of this dashing experimeni
will stimulate repetitions in othei
parts of the country. North Wales
too. is in outer darkness, and centra;
Yorkshire is suffering from markei
difficulties. The American trains ol
•his pattern have wrought wonders
They have brought before the eyes
and to the ears of remotest farmers
the latest knowledge on the most ele
mental subjects of agriculture. Thf
South Wales demonstration train is tc
go a step further. It is to teach tht
value of a great movement, as well as
to demonstrate to ere and ear th«
advantage of scientific methods. Thf
occasion is new tn the ancais of ag
ricultural organization in England.
iSNAKES CATCH RATS
Merchants of Detroit Place Or
ders for 300 of “BulP Variety.
Unlike Any Other Member of Rep
tile Family He Inspires Feeling of
Affection—To Prove Bene
ficial in Moral Way.
Detroit. Mich.—A local naturalist
has placed an order with a Texas firm
for’300 bull snakes, which are to be
used to exterminate the rats of De
troit.
When the snakes arrive they are
i to be given out free to all applicants,
with the understanding that the first
to come will be the first served.
The snake is a native of the en
tire Pacific coast country as well as
the Lone Star state, but the south
ern specimen Is said to be the best
ratter, hence the placing of the order
there.
“He will make good, never fear,”
says the man who has boosted the
; qualifications of the bull snake. It
does not take a matador to put the
’ bull snake through his little stunt,
i He performs of his own volition and
1 with extreme avidity. All you have
! to do Is to welcome him into your
home with average politeness. He
j will do the rest. Unless some of the
rats are sick-a-bed and indisposed to
roam in quest of food he will have
them all in a week. Then he can be
loaned to your neighbor.
"And right there is where the diffi
culty of the whole plan comes in. You
won't wish to loan him. The bull
snake is unlike any other member of
the snake family in that he Inspires
a feeling of affection and companion
ship between himself and the people
he meets. In contradistinction to the
loathing and repugnance with which
other snakes are regarded.
“Out in the west almost every
ranch has its pet bull snake. You can
spur the cayuses. cuff the cat and kick
the dog. but don't step on “Bill' or
you'll get the dislike of the rancher,
for the big serpent is his one best
pet. The prime purpose of having
'Bill' present is to keep away the rat
tlers which he will kill on sight and
which will run their fastest to get
' out of his way. but he soon gets to be
one of the family and is treated as
such. It Is no unusual occurrence to
see an eight foot bull snake coiled
I in a chair at a rancher's table, with
his neck stretched over the edge and
his head resting on a plate, while his
master feeds him tit bits of meats and
pastry. He is sure to be popular in
Detroit.”
Not only Is the advent of Bill sup
posed to mark the extermination or
exodus of the rat, but he is to prove
beneficial in a moral way. When you
see a bibulous person with disheveled
hair quivering In an agony of fear
and horror, don’t tell him that it is
a real snake he sees on the walk. Let
- him think that he has the "Jimmies.”
Perhaps it will cure him of the habit
Several of the big Detroit stores
have put in a requisition for a dozen
of the bull snakes. The rats are t.
cause of great monetary loss to local
merchants, not only to the grocery
- and meat man, but to dry goods men
as well. Some of the more fastidious
- rodents will pass up the best new
vegetables and even cheese to feed
' on silk and satins. His appetite is
often illogical.
C. Hart Merriam. chief of the Biolog
, ical survey, of the United States de
partment of agriculture, at Washing
j ton. and other eminent scientists in
j the service are enthusiastic over the
- try out of the bull snake as a rat
catcher in Detroit. Doctor Merriam
| has written that he is quite familial
with the talent and ability of the ser
; pent and that he is satisfied that the
experiment will not be a disappoint
ment. “My only suggestion is a lit
tle advice to the ladies to guard their
coiffures," he says. "With Bill, a rat
is a rat. and hairpins won't stop him."

Trenton, j—j. Ogden Armour,
supposed head of the great beef trust,
has millions, but he will not be al
lowed to spend any of his money per
sonally in New Jersey. Nor will it be
safe for him to ride through this state
on a railroad train. If he wants to go
from Chicago to New York he will not
be able to take a Pennsylvania train.
J. Ogden Armour.
bnt must content himself with the
New York Central or some road that
does not run through New Jersey.
The pleasure of the boardwalk at
Atlantic City will not be among those
Mr. Armour may enjoy. It may be
said in passing that these same re
strictions apply to Lewis F. Swift and
Edward Morris, millionaire packers.
Should they step foot in New Jersey
and Pierre F. Garven. prosecuting at
torney of Hudson county, finds it out
they will be arrested. They are safe
as long as they remain outside the
boundary lines of this state and Mr.
Garven cannot get his hands upon
them.
It is because of the ruling of Gov
ernor Fort. Through the efforts of
Mr. Garven the Hudson county grand
jury indicted the Chicago packers re
cently. Mr. Garven applied to the
governor for a requisition on Governor
Deneen of Illinois to bring the mil
lionaires to Jersey City for trial.
Governor F'ort decided that Mr. Ar
mour and his associates cannot be re
garded as fugitives from justice and
he refused to issue the requisition. He
accompanied the refusal with a care
fully prepared statement of the
grounds for it The fact that Mr. Ar
mour was not in New Jersey at the
time charged in the indictment is re
garded by the governor as a sufficient
reason for refusing the request of the
prosecutor.
His decision will probably put an
end to the criminal prosecution, in so
far as most of the individual directors
of the indicted corporations are con
cerned. It is not claimed by the gov
ernor that Mr. Armour and his asso
ciates have not committed a crime
which might be punishable if they
were within the jurisdiction of the
state.

When Her Faith in the Lord Failed.
During the progress of a big "pro
tracted meeting." for which the south
is famous, an ardent sister of the
church, who usually came in an old
fashicned buck hoard drawn by the
family horse, was late for a particular
ly important service and was being
severely censured by the pastor.
Explaining the reason for being late
the good sister said that the horse
had taken fright at a passing train
and bolted and that the wreck of the
rig had prevented her from being on
time.
“My dear sister, such little things
should not make you late for divine
services. Tou should trust in the
Lord."
“Well, brother." she replied, and
there was a look of calm peacefulness
on her face. "1 did trust in the Lord

my childhood, and the last few yeans
it had injured me seriously.
“One cup of coffee taken at break
fast would cause me to become so
nervous that I could scarcely go

ihis nervousness was often accom

“1 am a teacher by profession, and
