James W. Carr, a newspaper reporter, said he went to the scene of the shooting with the police and did not see Moore give a revolver to Hagerman. Charles Mat shall, another reporter, nii he was at the police station when Moore was brought lie said that Moore did take a revolver from his holster and hand It to Captain Crane with the remark that "this is McKlnney's gun." W. E.

Superintendent of Police Hyland was asked why be had changed McKlnney from West Indianapolis to the Thirteenth district. He said he had made several changes about that time and did not give any sped si reason for making the changes. He said that he had received no word prior to March 2S. that there had been any trouble between Moore and McKInnev.

Pigeons thrive even when confined in restricted quar-ers. and will, with reasonable care, produce a regular supply of squabs. These are a great delicacy and possess certain practical advantages as compared- with chickens.

They make much more rapid growth than the "latter and require no care aside from' that given by the parent birds. They may even be produced where there is no land available, as some successful squab producing plants are in "operation on ths roofs of city buildings. It Is frequently found that objections to chickens are based on the existence of conditions which are never found on properly conducted plants. Ths houses need not and should not be unsightly, un sanitary or filthy. They may be made attractive, and they must be kept.

sweet and clean, if the best results are to be secured, Ths adult fowls may- be kept entirely out of sight, the only sign of their presence being their reports when eggs nave seen deposited in the nests. Heavy egg production is frequently secured when the birds are kept confined In clean, well ventilated houses, never stepping on the ground during, ths entire year. Yards are desirable, but are not a necessity, excepting for growing chicks. As a matter of fact, on extremely restricted areas the land might better be used for houses to accommodate a few more birds than divided between house sites and yards. Objection to the noise made by fowls refers almost exclusively to ths crowing of the males, ths presence of which Is unnecessary and undesirable In flocks that are carried solely for the.

production of table eggs. The male Is a disturber and. alvhourh a consumer, he la not a froducer. He may well be dispensed with all but the breeding pens. There 1s a widespread idea that flocks of hens without males will not lay well.

This Is not founded on fart, as some of the best egg records have been made by pens of hens which have never had a male bird kept with them. If the objecting neighbor Is reasonable, these considerations will probably smooth matters, out and enable one to proceed with this plan, especially if there Is a probability of a few fresh eggs being slipped across the. fence occasionally. In perfecting plans for the establishment of a home flock. on will do well to carefully study the (conditions surrounding his particular case and proceed accordingly.

The amount of space available, the exposure, the character of the soil, the available funds, all have an Important bearing on the subject. The best advice is to begin -n a small scale, keeping only a few birds until experience warrants expansion. Following this plan, one Invests but a small sum, and any errors can; be corrected without serious loss. But try out the Idea in some way and learn low fresh ergs and properly grown chickens really taste.

Shell and dry them for winter use. Alfalfa Culture XPERT authorities tell us alfalfa Is worth as much as wheat bran, pound for pound. Tbey also tell us that alfalfa Is worth $10-per ton Yaors than timothy hay.

We know that timothy Impoverishes the land, and we know that alfalfa Mover enriches the solL F. D. Coburn ays alfalfa ha been known to add 954 worth of fertilising to an acre of land. Alfalfa produces from three tons to six tons of fine hay an acre a year at four cuttings: and the frequent cuttings prevent weeds i from seeding. Horses and cattle will qslt eating their corn to eat alfalfa hay.

But In spite of all these facts, most Indiana farmers say: "I think this country Is adapted 1 1 alfalfa. I tried It and failed to get stand." Thev nearly all say they had a good set at first, but the alfalfa died out until It was too thin to let stand, and they plowed It up and planted corn. These farmers did not. "Inoculate- their land, and they didnot disk or cultivate their alfalfa Ths alfalfa plant will live until it has used opthe svallable nitrogen In the soil and then, it will die, unless It Is Inoculated so It csn draw upon the nitrogen in the air. By Inoculating the soil at the time of sowing or soon after, the alfalfa does not become too thlrt on ths ground; especially Is this true.

If the disk and harrow are used freely afte? the plants are one year old. By using the disk, set to rut nearly to Its full capacity, the weeds, bluegrasa. are killed out and an earth mulc la formed that retains the moisture, snd then even thin alfalfa will produce amazing results. I. have had some experience of thla kind myself.

I will give it briefly: About sixteen years sro I sowed one and one-half acres of alfalfa the last of April, on ground that had been sown to wheat but the wheat "winter killed." I cut three crops of alfalfa the first season. Ths next season I got four crops, snd the next spring the alfalfa was so thin I thought It a total failure, and I double disked It thoroughly, both ways, narrowed it nicely, and reeeerfed it The seed germinated In three or four days, but the old scattering alfalfa plants were so much benefited by the cultivation that they shaded the ground completely, and killed the young alfalfa plants, snd I lost my seed, but not my work, for I rut the hesviest crop or hay 1 ever saw, la about thirty daya I did not weigh It but estimated It to be about three tons an acre. I don't think this alfalfa was thicker than about one good plart to a square foot of ground. I learned from thla that it. pays to disk alfalfa, and I do this, usually, four times year; first as early In the spring as the ground la dry enough, and after each cutting, except the last or fourth one.
