Death ol Mrs. Jjhn D.tkr.
On Wednesday afternoon a mes-i
sage was received by friends of F. I
W. Gallagher, telling of the death I
of Mrs. John Butler, at the home |
of hei- husband's parents near Pitts- j
burg.
Mr, and Mrs. Gallagher and j
'daughter Mrs. Frev were at. their
| daughters bedside for several days
i previous to her death, but left for
their home Wednesday morning.
At that time the condition of Mrs.
Butler seemed very favorable to
ward recovery, but before her par
ents had reached Laporte, her
death occured. Mr. Gallagher, on
Thursday morning returned to the
bereaved home, and if possible to
bring the remains of his daughter
to this place for burial.
Mrs. Ihitler was the eldest
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. W.
Gallagher, and was born in this
town where nearly all her life
was spent. She was about 21
years of age, and was married in
December of litOt!. She was of frail
constitution, having been a sufferer
from asthma from early childhood.
Her cheerful disposition, even when
suffering severely, was often com
mented upon by those who knew
her. She was generally beloved,
and her seemingly untimely death
has cast a sorrow over the commu
nity.
A Wear chase inside the city limits
in which dozens of citizens armed :
with revolvers and guns took part,
caused great excitement at Altoona j
on New Year's day. The bear wan
dered into the city, and women and
children fled in terror. In a few
minutes armed men tmi hoys had
driven hruin to an alley and opened
tire. One lad was wounded in the!
foot. The hear fled toward the
mountain, hut was cornered in an j
orchard and killed.
State Kconomic Zoologist Surface j
is now forming a new plan for con
ducting part of the demonstration
work of the division of zoology in '
Pennsylvania. Heretofore the work j
has been confined principally to show 1
ing farmers how the Sun Jose scale
and other pests can he controlled,
although other valuable point* have j
been given too.
l)r. Surface now proposes to have !
"model orchards" as he terms them '
distributed over the state. In these,
the field demonstrators shall work 1
j throughout the year for the purpose !
of showing fruit growers just how an
orchard should be kept.
The state does not intend to buy
the orchard. The owners simply
allow the division of zoology to run (
them, getting their reward in the in
crease value of the orchard itself
The state will furnish the expert
men to do the work in the orchards, ;
and will also furnish the chemicals j
for insecticides, F.very thing else I
must be furnished by the owner of
tin* orchard.
It is the hope l>r. Surface to estab
lish about I'o nf these model orclt- j
ards about the state an average of:
one t<> every three counties. Many
applications are already in from
owners, who offer their orchards for
the work, and Dr. Surface will soon
make his selection. The first work
j in these model orchards will be start- i
ed early in March when trees which
' need pruning will receive attention
jSpraving will come later.

Egg dealers in the cities are giv- j

not hatch them fast enough to meet
