LYNCH AS LABOR HEAD
First Named by Sulzer and Confirma-
tion Held Up in Upper House
—Renamed by Gov. Glynn.
Albany, Oct. 23.—J. M. Lynch, of
Syracuse, president of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union, was
named by Governor Martin H. Glynn,
as State Labor Commissioner and the
appointment was unanimously con-
firmed by the State Senate.
The resubmission of Mr. Lynch’s
name by Governor Glynn was in re-
sponse to a unanimous request from
the labor organizations of the State.
The Governor sent a special message |
to the Senate urging Mr. Lynch’s im- |
mediate confirmation. The term of
State Labor Commissioner is five
years, and the salary is $8,000.
Governor Sulzer appointed Lynch
State Labor Comm’ssioner after the
Senate had twice refused to confirm
the appointment of John Mitchell for
the posiiilon. The Senate likewise
failed to confirm the appointment of
Mr. Lynch, and the nomination was
pending before the Senate Finance
Committee when the impeachment
proceedings against Sulzer interrupted
all legislative business.
HAS SURE CURE FOR TYPHOID
®
Southern Pacific Physician Uses In-
jections of Blood from Conva-
lescent Patient.
San Francisco, Oct. 25.—Dr. George
R. Carson, of the Southern Pacific
medical force announced at the an-
nual convention of the Pacific Asso-
ciation of Railway Surgeons what he
claims is a sure cure for typhoid fever
without vaccination. His method is a
variation of the mode of handling
diphtheria. As the lower animals can-
not contract typhoid, Dr. Carson uses
membrane serum.
The treatment begins with a con-
valescent typhoid case in man. The
serum from the blood of this conva-
lescent is injected into the patient,
There is generally a rise in tempera-
ture, but normal is usually reached
on the day following injection. In
three or four days, if the temperature
rises, another injection is given.
Three or four injections may be re-
quired in all.

FOWLS SUITABLE FOR FARM
Old Farmer Says He Has Never Seen
Anything Better Than Plymouth
Rocks and Wyandottea.
Many farmers have hobbles and pet
theories which sometimes bring them
plenty of “experience,” but as a rule
they look at everything along utility
lines, says Farm News. Some farm-
ers have been looking for the best
farmer’s fowl, have bred almost all
breeds in existence, and yet have to
confess to failure along these lines.
At times he thinks that he has the
best bird cornered only to find that
it is stil. at large. A buzz-saw is all
right for the purpose for which it was
intended, but it can’t be used for
shaving a man’s beard. All these
things are very practical in their way,
but making them answer for all pur-
poses is very much like corralling a
cyclone, something no man has suc
ceeded in deing,
One person wants fowls for the pro-
duction of eggs, and, therefore, will
want the breed whose hens prove to
be the best layers. Another wants
the best table fowl, and an entirely
different breed will be selected. The
third man wants a fowl with a cer-
tain fancy feather and pays a fancy
price for it. A farmer living several
miles from town cares very little for
fowls of any particular kind, yet he

will admit that they are an unfailing
source of supply in case of emergen-
cy in supplying the table, buying the
groceries and keeping him out of
debt for long intervals.
The farmer's flock should be pro-
lific without sacrificing other quali-
ties. They ghould be good table fowls. |
To satisfy .his requirement they must
be of good size, plump and of good ap- |
pearance when dressed. They must
be hardy and good foragers, as there
is much waste food on the farm that
can be converted into cash returns
by the fowls. The hens must be good
sitters and mothers, as many farmers |
are not ready to buy incubators—al- |
though they should do so at once.
These are questions that are being
studied by the careful, and each in-
dividual will have to determine the
matter for himself. An old farmer
who is now off the active list, but still
lives on the farm and raises poultry
as a diversion says he visited many
poultry shows just to inspect some
of the best birds of the new varieties,
and he says that he has never seen
anything better than the Plymouth
Rock and Wyandotte varieties for real,
business stock. He said: ‘You can
tell inquirers that these two breeds
are still at the top, and there are
enough varieties of them to please
any sensible person. As to individual
taste, the old Indian said if men were
all alike they would all want his
squaw.”
So many varieties of chickens have
been evolved that it seems as if there
should be nothing left to be sought
or desired in the way of. beauty or
utility.
