NEW YORK MAN PLANS
ELECTRIC CHICKEN FARM.
Dr. R. C Liennu to Fatten Poultry Aft
er Method Discovered In England,
Dr. Rudolph C. Licnnn, n Now York
dentist, la having installed on n farm
belonging to him nt (3 rent IUvor, N.
Y., tho apparatus necessary to raise
chickens by electricity. Dr. Llcnau
expects that his chickens will equal
ordinary chickens in weight in half
the time or, in u similar period, will
exceed tho common barnyard fowl In
weight by some 38 per cent.
The- dentist says that his Ideas aro
similar to those of Dr. Thoroo Baker
of London, who finds that by prac
tically continuous doses of high fre
quency electricity ho can shock his
chickens into rapid growth. Dr. Lie
nnu telLs of n comparison which Dr.
Baker made.
"Tho conditions surrounding the two
classes of chickens, four in each class,
were identical," said he. 'They had
tho same food and tho same runs.
Some D.000 volts of electricity were
used in alternating current, which was
io directed that it swept the basking
funs of tho treated birds. Tho cost of
the treatment was found to average 4
cents a bird from tho time It started to
killing time."
Tho dentist presented the figures of
Dr. Baker's test showing that four
chickens which had been treated with
electricity to the broiling stage weigh
ed 4 pounds 14.8 ounces, whllo four
not spurred to more rapid growth by
the current weighed only 3 pounds 8.C8
ounces.
Dr. Liennu says he has devised some
Improvements in the manner of con
veying tho shocks to the chickens, but
otherwise his farm will bo modeled on
that of Dr. Baker's.
FOR A BUFFALO RANGE.
New York Zoo Offers Ten to Govern
ment as a Nucleus.
The New York Zoological society has
offered tho American Bison society a
herd of ten buffaloes, consisting of
males and females of various ages, for
the nucleus herd with which to stock
the new Wind Cave national bison
range when it Is established by con
gress. A hill is now pending In both
houses of congress to authorize tho es
tablishment of this Wind Cavo na
tional park, near the Black mils dis
trict, South Dakota, as a national
game preserve and especially for the
purpose of preserving tho American
bison, the elk. the Rocky mountain
sheep and other largo quadrupeds in
digenous to the United States.
Tho measure has been favorably re
ported up by Secretary of Agriculture
James Wilson nnd Secretary Fisher of
the interior department It provides
for the establishment of the preservo
to include tho Wind Cave national
park, comprising some 10,000 acres, al
ready tho property of tho government,
nnd about 5.000 ndjacent acres, most
of which Is also government lnnd.
Tho ndjacent lands, tho 0,000 acres
outside of tho present park, contain
several good streams of water nnd fine
pasturage area.
The bill provides for an appropria
tion to cover the cost of such addi
tional lands as may bo purchased and
the cost of fencing tho same, a total of
only $32,000. Tho American Bison so
ciety has agreed to stock the game
preserve with n herd of buffalo. Own
ers of other varieties of nnlmals have
also offered to help the enterprise
along. Dr. W. T. Flornaday of the
New York Zoological society assured
the Bison society that the herd ho of
fered is of tho purest blood.
EXCESS LOANS IN 989 BANKS.
Comptroller Issues Peremptory Order
Against the Practice.
After a number of warnings against
infractions of tho national banking
laws prohibiting excessive loans Comp
troller of the Currency Murray has Is
sued a peremptory order that on or nft
er Sept. 1, 1012, no national bank shall
have excess loans that Is, individual
loans of more than tho legal proiior
tion of capital nnd surplus.
Tho returns from tho last call for
statements of tho national banks,
showing condition as of April 18, re
vealed that 0S9 bauka In vurlous pnr.s
of the country had excess loans. The
comptroller in a statement points out
that he lins frequently called attention
to this abuse, and, lindlng this Inef
fective, he litis ordered thnt losses re
sulting from excess loans shall fall on
the directors authorizing them nnd not
on stockholders of tho hank.
Tho peremptory order is given two
months nnd n half in ndvnnco of tho
date it becomes effective to allow suf
ficient tlmo to adjust tho excess loans
without loss. Tho comptroller tnkes
the ground that since tho excess loans
law hns boon pretty generally violat
ed for fifty years it is only fair to give
tho delinquent banks tlmo to adjust
them.

CITIES JOIN NATIONAL
SWAT THE FLY MOVEMENT.
Offer of 10 Cents For 100 Flies Brings
Results.
Tho Anti-tuberculosis lcagiio of
Nashville, Tenn., inaugurated a fly
campaign in which it offered 10 cents
a hundred for dead flics brought to the
offices of the organization between 3
and 4 p. m. for the week beginning
May 1. Consignments were paid for
in lots ns smnll as ten, and mnny of
tho youngsters of tho city who had
probably never beard of tho Nashville
Anti-tuberculosis league wero able to
pick up n few extra pennies by chasing
tho ubiquitous household pest with the
implemeuts at hand.
In answer to an offer of tho city to
pay n rewnrd of a cent for every ten
flies delivered dead nt the city hall
school children of Cleveland are
"swatting the fly" with vim and vigor.
The crusade will continue for two
weeks, when tho offer expires. Tho
city henlth officials believe that every
fly killed at this season of the year
means the nbsencc, so to speak, of nine
flics later; hence tho posting of the re
ward. Compulsory legislation for spraying
breeding places of flics wns urged nt
a recent executive board meeting of
the Anti-tuberculosis society of Grand
Rnpids, Mich. It is probable that the
society will ask the common council
to pass the necessary measures to ob
tain this result Numerous indorse
ments of tho proposed ordinance have
already been made by organizations of
tho city. Among tho first bodies to
support it wero the Trades and Lubor
council, local union No. 335 of the Unit
ed Brotherhood of Carpenters nnd
Joiners of America and the Building
Trades council.

INTERNATIONAL BUREAU OF
WEATHER AND STORMS.
Willis Moore Is Moving For Compul
ory Reports and Warnings at Sea.
The first formal step In the cam
paign for the establishment of an In
ternational weather nnd storm bureau
has been taken by Willis Moore, chief
of the United States weather hurenu.
Speaking of his plan, Xlr, Moore said:
"If tho plan Is ndopted, so far ns
storms nro concerned, the crossing of
the Atlantic will be mndc as safe as a
short strcot oar Journey. Great ocean
liners, which hove hut little to fear
from any tiling except the most de
structive gale, may by altering their
courso fifty miles or more on receipt
of the warning escape a rough pas
snge, whllo tho smaller steamera and
sailing ships by making a wide detour
may escape possible destruction."
Mr. Moore outlined tho plnn at a
luncheon given to him by Dr. William
Shaw, head of the British weather
service, and the scientific stuff of tho
London moterologicnl station.
According to this plnn, a median
lino will 1)0 established throngh tho
north Atlnntlc. All ships sailing In ci
ther direction wostward of this medlnn
are to bo compelled to take a dally
weather observation, which must bu
sent by wireless telegraph to the near
est ship in communication to the west.
Thence the messages nro to le relayed
until Uiey reach the nearest American
land station. Tho messnges are then
to bo telegraphed to Washington,
where the weather bureau will make
up a wenther chnrt and a storm warn
ing, which will be Cabled to Europo.
Ships to the onstwnrd of tho medlnn
will relay the messages nntll they
reach London or Paris. The wenther
chart nnd storm warnings made up by
tho European station will bo cabled to
Washington, and tho storm locations
from America and Europo as compiled
will be sent by wireless telegraph to
tho nearest ships, which will be in
duty bound to transmit them to ves
sels near the storm threatened nreaa.

NEW ANAESTHETIC TRIED.
Patient Laughs and Talks as Tumor Is
Removed.
Painless operations of n serious na
ture can bo performed with tho patient
entirely conscious and without any of
the unpleasant nauseating effects that
result from ether if tho now local au
aesthctlc, composed of quinine ami
urea hydrochloride, is used.
Dr. Prank M. McCartney of Denver
performed an operation at St. Antho
ny's hospital which shows conclusive
ly that this preparation is tho ideal lo
cal anaesthetic, no removed a tumor
as big as a man's fist from tho shoulder
blade of Oswald N. Rlchter.
Tho patient not only felt no pain, hut
laughed and talked witii tho snrgecn
whllo the latter was using the knife.
When tho operation was finished he
walked unassisted to his room and eat
down to a hearty luncheon.
