PHIMARY LAW
HARRISBURG April 15.
Considerable dissatisfaction with
the return provisions of the uniform
primary law is heart! in Dauphin
couuty, anil it is possible that some
steps to amend it.so that early reports
cau be had, will ba made by some of
the representatives. Reports from
Cumberland, Perry aud Lebanon coun
ties are to the sauie effect, aud the
difficulties which the clerks iu the
office of the secretary of the
wealth encountered when petitious
were filed bid fair to be repeated when
the counties make their returns.
Under the law every county ninst
send returns of the vote for candidates
for cougross, national delegate, legis
lature aud state offlcors to the oapitol,
where returns will be computed by
districts and the aggregate results
certified. As there are many hundreds
of nominations there will be more or
less contusion on Capitol Hill agaiu,
aud this feature may also be amended.
What is most objeoted to in this coun
ty is tho absence of any provision re
quiring public returns. The law stipul
ates that the'election officers must
make sealed returns to the couuty
commissioners not later than the Tues
day following the primary.
There is nothing requiring the post
ing of returns or the filing of a dupli
cate sheet for public information,
such as is done in the general elec
tions. The result is that no one cau
get at the returns in the sealed en
velopes until Wednesday/[noon, wheu
the official count is commenced. A
number of candidates are in the dark
as to their vote, aud there is much
comment heard.

THE DATE OF
ADJOURNMENT
WASHINGTON, April 15.
Representative Watson, of ludiaua
announced today, Rafter a conference
with the president that congress would
adjourn about May 15. Mr. Watson
had a long talk with the president up
on the subject last night, and May 9
was agreed upou the date for ad
journment.
Later the president sent for Mr. Wat
son aud iuformed him that, as he had
invited the convention of governors to
attend the "natural resources confer
ence" iu Washington ou May 13, witli
the understanding that confess would
be in session at that time, 113 would
profer that tho executive body remain
until after they had reached tho oaoit
al.
Making Good.
Th?re is 110 way of making IfurhnQ
friends like "Making Good;" and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exemplify this,
ami their friends, after more than two
decades of popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds of thousands. They have
"made good" aud they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square-deal medicine of
known composition is Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. \t still enjoys an Im
mense sale, wh!Io most of tho prepara
tions that have come into prominence in
tile earlier period of its popularity have
"gone by the board" and are never moro
heard of. There must be some reason for
tli's long-time popularity and that Is to
be found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, its supe
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
lience it lias survived and grown in pop
ular favor, while scores of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for a brief period anu then been as soon
forgotten.
For a torpid liver with its attendant
indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per
haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is so good as I)r.
Pierco's Golden Medical Dlscoverv. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
Its Ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper
—llO secret, no hocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't nccept a substitute that
the dealer may possibly make a little big
ger profit. In* Ist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion expecting it to prove a "cure-all." It
Is only advised for woman's spccltil ail
ments. It makes weak women strong and
sick women well. Less advertised thnn
6ome preparations sold for like purposes,
Its sterling curative virtues still maintain
Its position in tho front ranks, where It
stood over two decades ago. As an in
vigorating tonic and strengthening nerv
ine It is uneouaied. It won't satisfy those
who want" booze," for there Is not a drop
of alcohol in It.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the orlflt
twit Little Liver Pills, although the first
pill of their kind In the market, still lead,
and when onco tried are fever afterwards
In favor. Easy to tako as candy—one to
three a dose. Muoh imitated but never
equaled.

SOLICITED ,
HENHOUSE CONSTRUCTION.
! When you are building that hennery
remember what Uncle Pete says. "If
youse k'rect, git thar." You should
know bow to build to make your flock
i comfortable, keep them healthy, make
them lay aud pay. The house should
be substantial, presentable and not a
financial embarrassment.
Have you the know-how? Better not
quit kindergarten too soon. Better
learn to swim doggy In the creek be
fore you try to do broad stroke stunts
In tho river. You must use your think
machine, but before you turn on the
wheels you must not forget that you
can't manufacture practical Ideas un-
I less you have practical raw material
| stored back to work iuto the finished
' product. This is derived from practl
| cal experience and is worked up into
burnished brain. Burnished brain Is
not just mere brain any more than a
i good poultry house Is au ordinary
I brain storm. You must build to suit
your climate, to suit the lay of the
land, to fit your flock, to secure the
i best sanitary conditions aud reap all
j the natural advantages possible. Study
| that sentence.
i In a warm climate a cool house Is
i necessary. The California "mushroom
j house" is excellent—simply a hip roof
\ house sot on thirty Inch legs, open
arotind the base, sides covered with
oiled sacking or board; In a temper
' ate region simply a well ventilated
house; north, stock must be protected
from cold. This means larger build
ings, as there Is not free range in win
ter. The usual winter house Is the
long scratching shed with open frout
and closed roost or windows, as pre
| ferrcd.
! I'j • ' -n a place for the foundation
j and get run of ground before you per
j feet plan. May not lit. Say ground
slopes from west to east and building
| is to be 170 by 12, composed of a two
story building, 20 by 20, for engine,
mills, well, grain, etc., and two seven
ty-five loot wings. When you've laid
i stone ninety-five feet you find, if con
tinued in straight line, the foundation
will be fifteen -feet high at the end.
I "Sold!" Not much. Just let ninety
five feet of stone stand and run the
j other wing s.nith from lower corner.
J You thus have a right angle with ad
j ministration building on corner. A
hip roof, cupola and flagstaff on the
corner make a right angle picture.
East wing gets morning sun; south,
I the long sun exposure. Small open
j Ings on wing sides, and you have three
! yards, one n line protected square for
| hens and fruit A drop of two feet iu
; foundation of wings gives each wing
sue room nine feet high in front, seven
j back; the other, seven high in front
j and five in back, with shed roof level.
I Partition wings In center to avoid
I drafts; eight double sash, four ven
j tilators to a wing, with floor of ground,
! cement or board, two feet above sur
! face; dead air space in walls and ev-
I er.vthing tight, and you have a good
j house for."(JO Leghorns or 3."0 Rocks.
To be sanitary the water should run
J away from building and foil should
| quickly absorb moisture and drop
j pings. Sandy gravel Is best. Plant
; fruit for shade. With windows six
to twelve inches from floor and ven
' tilators well regulated, you have a
I well aired, dry, sunshiny house,
j The more birds the more care. Now,
if your ground is watered by a silvery
| stream and is sufficiently large to pro
; duce the grain and you are not a kid
| glove pessimist, but put brain, brawn
and horse sense back of the pushcart
| you'll be in it.
DON'TS.
Don't set any kind of a hen simply
because you nre anxious for early
chicks.
Don't forget that feed gets higher as
i it grows scarcer. Better buy wheat for
I the summer.
| Don't write us about your chicks
| having indigestion If you give them no
| grit. That takes grit!
j Don't forget to sow sunflower seed
| this spring. They add to tho appear
ance ol' your place and add to the ra
tion.
Don't brag wheu a hen lays a double
| yolk egg. It's a sign of overfat. The
; egg has one more yolk, but you may
! have oue less hen from apoplexy.
Don't put all the eggs into one bas
ket. Sort them iuto sizes and see that
your good cash customers get the big
ones and a baker's dozen occasionally.
Don't forget to place some straw In
protected corners for your turkey nests.
The old ben will bo on tho lookout for
a soft place, and you'll keep her near
home by the trick.
Don't forget that sunflower seeds
have much moisture and must be
spread well to dry. The chickens and
sparrows will save you the trouble If
they have half a chance.
Don't send your breeding eggs to the
store If you have a surplus. Put them
up In water glass for family use In
winter. Keep no males among your
market egg layers. Gormless eggs
keep longer, and the fellow who buys
hatching eggs at the store to steal a
i march on you wi'.l get left.
THE SIMPLE LIFE.
Tho simple life 1 iovo to sing
Because It's musical
With bleating lambs and mooing cowl
And barnyard jing-a-ilng.
We wear a blight red sunbonnet
And loosely fitting prints;
Wi 1 never dress for minuets
Nor put on £eauty tints.
r
Wc have our cow and chickens, too,
A hog, a mule, a churn;
Wo never could return to you
In city heat to burn.
Wo've done for ayo with city strife.
Give ns our hogs and chickens.
We're badly stuck on simple life;
For fun it beats the dickens.

THE WYANDOTTES.
This breed was at first commonly
tailed "American Sebrlghta," whicb
was changed to "Wyandotte" after the
Indians of tbnt name. Historians have
failed to trace tlie time and circum
stances of its origin, but ail claim it to
be an American bird with Dark Brah
ma and Hamburg blood in Its veins.
Today the man who originates a breed
erects a marble statue to himself if
no one else will. The varieties are Sil
ver. Golden, Silver Penciled, Partridge,
Columbian. Black. Buff and White.
STANDARD WEIGHTS.

The While Dotte is the most popular
and Is a bird of beautiful curves. The
original of this picture Is n feathered
aristocrat. llow kingly! What vigor!
IDEAL HEAD FOB lIKEEDEIia.
[White Wyandotte from life.]
What a proud pedigreed prince! Then
think of the big brown eggs from his
harem and the Huffy, bright eyed
chicks, instructed In wonnology and
scratching stunts by his snow white
cackling queens! Then smack your lips
as you smell the savory odor of a bast
ed Wyandotte! Bound, yellow, velvety,
smooth as silk, it is the unsurpass
ed epicurean bird. In dining on Dottes
hold yourself in check at least till the
blessing is asked. In breeding avoid
single combs, or hybrids, by using
broad combed males.
For brassiness and cream In White
Wynndottes use no-corn cream cure.
FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.
Cleanliness Is the keyhole to sucqjss
In the poultry business, but some
chicken raisers, like the man late home
from lodge, can't find It.
"Money makes the mare go," but it
doesn't always make the hen lay. The
millionaires going into the business
don't always strike Standard oil.
If you knew it all. you would be
drinking government cream on an ex
periment station, while your typewriter
would be working overtime on chicken
reports from the cyclopedia.
Coutinual feeding of one kind of
grain often brings indigestion, loss of
appetite and bowel troubles. If this is
your feeding method and you are mak
ing a profit you deserve a monument
The farmers are buying bone cutters,
and the butchers have such a rush for
bones that they are always engaged.
Once more the American hen registers
by knocking out Mr. Bags Bones and
Gum r its.
IT: •• HI reached the broiler stage?
Dot. ; •> from the frying pan into
the s>:v!!e: Baising cockerels in zero
weather to sell at Alaska prices isn't
what it's cocked up to be. Beware of
a broiler explosion!
Now that the hatching season Is here
get out your signs of the zodiac so you
get your hen set In the right sign. Bet
ter look for signs of lice and set your
hens right and give them better atten
tion. You'll get more chicks.
It has often been asked why the New
York poultrymen keep mostly White
I,eghorns. Simply because the New-
York epicures demand large white
eggs. Bostonians possess a predilec
tion for brown eggs. Why? Oh,
Browning, of course!
As the chicks dry off under the hen re
move them In a soft lined basket to a
chair beside the kitchen stove. Have a
soft woolen cloth hanging down in the
basket to warm their backs, but ar
range so they cannot get on toi> of the
cloth, as they may smother each other.
By this plan the old hen cannot tram
tile them In the nest.
When spring Is in full blooin you may
expect to hear that the American hen
has invaded Panama. We are told
that the chickens on the isthmus are a
sorry set. When a newly wedded cou
ple, bound for the big ditch, found
eggs were 10 cents apiece they sim
ply sent an order north for an incu
bator and 100 Bock eggs. Good luck!
The number or poultry books adver
tised is a sign of the interest manifest
in the business. You can get a full
fledged library for $2.50. They will
help you, but don't forget what experi
ence teaches you. It doesn't deal in
theory.

Wooing the Fickle God.
"I have been troubled with insomnia
nil my life," remarked the nervous
man,"and, like most' people similarly
afllicted, I have tried all the familiar
dodges to induce sleep. The results
were never particularly satisfactory
in the way of producing the desired ef
fect until one night I thought I had ac
tually found a sleep inducer when I
chanced to grasp one of the rods at
the head of my bed with both hands
and practically hung the weight of my
body on it. That sent me to sleep,
and it did the same thing for a few
times, when, to my extreme disap
pointment, I found it had censed to
work. I was as badly off as ever re
cently until one night, when I had a
bad cough, as well as an attack of
sleeplessness, I tried the well known
remedy of trying to send myself off
into the land of Nod by taking long,
deep breaths. What it did to me and
has done several times since was not
to only send me to sleep, but to stop
my cough completely before I lost con
sciousness. Just why it did so is not
of much consequence. That it did so
is the thing that concerns me most."—

BETTER PAY FOR
R. F. ft ¥I
Congressman John M. Reynolds, of
the Nineteenth Pennsylvania district,
has introduced in the House a bill in
creasing tho salaries of rural mail car
riers to $1,200 per year an Hie max
imum.
"The rural (arrieis ate not given
enough money for the work they per
form", said Mr. Reynolds, in discuss
ing the merits of ihe bill. ' 'They are
oompelled to work at all seasons of the
year, in summer, in winter/ in rain,
snow and under all condition*. The
government takes no excuse fioin them.
In addition to this they are compelled
to furnish their own horse and wagon
and keep both in proper repair. The
amount allowed them by the govern
ment, therefore hardly enables them
to make both ends meet.
"I think $1,200 a year is little
enough when one takes into considera
tion the duties performed by these
servants of Uncle Sam. I am going to
do everything in my power to have my
bill favorably acted upon by this Con
gress."

COURT REVERSES
JUDGMENT
Continued from Ist Page,
judgment ought to he adopted bv the
company tor the protection of the pub
lic at street crossings. The power for
which it contend* vsouid lie pra"ticul
ly unlimited. That the appellee is at
tempting to substitute manioipul con
troi for that of elie railroad company
itself i.t a larticulir jioint hy declar
ing just bow the tiUty of the company
must bo performed is too pl»iu for dis
cussion.
"Among the express powers confer
red upon borougha by the act of 1851
tho one sought to be exercised hero
does not appear. By the first clause
of tins second section of that act bor
ough authorities are empowered gener
ally 'to make aucli laws, ordinances,
bylaws and regulations, not inconsist
ent with the laws of this Common
wealth, as they filial I deem necessary
for tho good order and government of
the borough. In the aucceoding twen
ty-live clauses of the same section are
found the powers expressly conferred,
but the power to pass this ordinance
jis not one of them. It is clear that
I tho good order and government of a
i borough referred to in the first clause
| are not- involved in the ordinance. The
good order of a borough can be pre
served and it can be properly govern
l ed, no matter how many railroads
j cross its streets, by legislative permis
j sion f v and no matter how fast cars may
run over them. We assume this is the
clause designated by the superior
court,aa the 'general welfare clause*—
'broad enough,' in the opinion of that
court, 'to cover the municipal legisla
tion comp'.ained of.' For the reason
just given we can not concur in this. "
Iu the Crafton borough case 17 Dia't
Report 204, the borough council had
in November, 1906, enacted an ordin
ance regulating the speed of locomo
tives and railroad trains within the
limits of the borough of Crafton, the
ordinance forbidding the running of
I locomotives or railroad trains over
any crossing in the borough at a great
er speed than four miles an hour and
providing a penalty for so doing.
Upon bill in eqiuty for injunction
by the Pittsburg C. C. and St. L. Ry.
Co., the defendant borough was re
strained from enforcing or attempting
to enforce the ordinance,deciding thai
no authority ia lodged in a borough
under the act of April 3, 1851, to reg
ulate by ordinanco the speed by which
| the locomotives and trains of a rail
| road company shall approach the grade
j crossings in the borough.
Borough authorities being unable to
I enact a valid ordinance regulating the
I speed at which the locomotives
| trains of a railroad company shall ap
| proach grade crossings in a'borough it
follows that they cannot enact a valid
ordinance regulating the speed of rail
road trains through any portion of
borough.
The seventh,eighth and ninth spccifi-
J cations of error are sustained andiudg
j meut reversed. By the Court,
CHARLES C. KVANS.
