FATTENING CHICKS.
II Rlsht Methods Arc Pnrsne This Is
an Kasler Task Tian Is Gca
erally Supposed.
Poultry raOT who make a business
of selling 3'oung chickens cannot do
better than to stud;," some of the- meth
ods which swine and cattle misers
adopt in preparing their animals for
market. A fat chicken is always de
sirable, and a full, plump body and
Ilinbs will go a long way toward findiag
a customer. Mosl of the cLie!;cr.s sent
to market are lean and 'lanky. It is
said that it is hard work to fallen a
yojxag chicken. If the right methods
arc observed it will be found easy
matter. A young chicken is prone to
run around a good deal, and her nervous
activity is apt to run off ali fat. But
three or four weeks before it is time
to market the chickens confine tLciu in
narrow inclosures where they camsot
run around much. Keep out all roost
ers or fighting chickens, for warry is
Bure to keep them thin. Only a few
should be kept in each iuclosure. The
pen should be a good one from every
point of view. It should have a shady
run and a sunny side so that the chick
ens can suit themselves a little. Prefer
ably it should have some green growing'
grass or shrubbery. This helps 1 1 make
life more pleasant and agreeable to the
chickens. Everything to make their
quarters comfortable should be added.
Now give them clean, fresh water
onee or twice a day, and all the fat
tening food they can eat. Muscle and
bpne-making food are not recmired.
These oan be eliminated entirely. Corn
in various forms should be fed freely
to them. Cooked corn, mashed and
ground corn, the whole corn should be
fed every day. Warm potatoes and
bread crumbs will also make fat. Any
kind of milk and a little sugar will
help along the fattening process. The
process must be hurried along as fast
as possible, for during Jhese .days the
chickens will cat considerable, and if
they do not lay on fat every day it
will be a losing operation. In the end,
however, good returns should be made
for all this trouble and expense, for
the chickens will sell quicker in the
market, weigh more, and generally
bring the top prices. Western Plow

There is no more attractive place to
visit in Chicago than South- Water
street. There one may meet with all
sorts and conditions of men and worn
en. A-peculiar feature of the great
market, and one that is different from
other wholesale districts, is the privi

and private-individual. For this reason
the street presents the queer combina

est. Next to him comes the woman
who keeps a boarding house. She does
not get as good prices as he does, for
she buys iu smaller quantities, but she
has a method in her buying that nets
her a good, round profit from the peo
pie who sit at her table. While all Chi cago
boarding house keepers do not
buy the cheapest food products thej
can, still there is a general belief, that
seems to be founded on a pretty fail
basis of fact, that they are not going
around seeking for the most expensive
delicacies obtainable on which to gorge
the five and six-dollar-a-week occupants
of their houses.
On South Water street-there is a
legend to the effect that a certain
boarding-house mistress cn one occa
sion approached a commission man
with the innocent proposition to save
for her all the tough chickens that came
into his possession so that her boarders
couldn't cat so much. And the same au
thority adds that a woman who catered
to a "husband who liked good eating
overheard the remark and took advan
tage of the guileless dealer. Represent
ing herself r.s a purvej or to a cheap
boarding house she addressed the mer
chant in about this way:
"Please pick out all the tough chick
ens for me."
"Yes, ma'am," responded the mer
chant, glad of the opportunity to dis
pose of undesirable wares.
When he had completed the work the
woman calnity picked out three of the
fattest hens in the pile of tender fowls
that had been left undisturbed, and se
renelj' remarked:
"Much obliged, I'll take these."
The suburbanite is the easiest buy
er that comes on the street. He hasn't
time to make selections and worry
about prices. He is always in a hurry
to catch a train.
There may be a few minutes in the
clay when there 'isn't a blockade on
South Water street, but one will have
to watch very steadily to find such a
condition of affairs. Heavily-loaded
trucks and wagons are continually
fighting for the right of way. The street
sometimes is literally strewn with veg
etables which fall off the overloaded
wagons, and, once in awhile, much to
the delight of the small bo3-s, and es
pecially to the colored small boys, a
watermelon falls to earth and explodes
with a dull, sickening thud.
This season has been an unusually
prosperous one to the merchants on
South Water street. While all the
crops have not been good, there has
been an evenness that has kept the
market fairly well supplied, and prices
"WATERMELON!"
have been maintained at a rate that
has made a satisfactory profit to the
trade both wholesale and retail.
The supply of watermelons has been
large, the greater number coming from
Iowa, with some shipments from south
ern Illinois. Good apples have been
scarce. The supply has been ample
enough, but the quality has been poor.
The majority came from Illinois and
Michigan, the latter crop being much
the better. As a matter of fact, Ben
ton Harbor, Mich., is the only locality
that has furnished Chicago with really
good apples this season. Seventy-five
per cent, of all received have ranked as
No. 2 in grade.
The prospects for that mostiieces
sary adjunct to Thanksgiving turkey
cranberry sauce are very promising.
The cranberry crop is large and good,
the principal supply coming from Cape
Cod. Tomatoes have been very line, al
though there has been something of a
shortage. There have been plenty of
potatoes in the market until recently
and prices have remained firm. Grapes
have been shipped in fair quantities, the
best coming from Michigan and the
Kelly Island region. Seventy-five per
cent, of the peach crop failed and the
quality has been poor, Michigan fur
nishing the greatest shipments. The
cabbage crop, which was drawn upon
from the south mostly this year, was
short. The acreage was greater than
usual, but the growth"was not so large.
But take it all in all the Chicago com
mission men are well pleased over their
summer's work and will be content
with the slower sales that come with
the cold weather.
This, in brief, is a picture of South
Water street the great supply market
for a great city and the most famous
market place for the produce output
of the United States.

MAN'S PHYSICAL DEFECTS. '
meven Shoulders, Aran, Veg .
Hips Are SumerouJ Few Per
fectly Symmetrical. j
A man can be measured to the best
advantage, tailors say, away from
glass. Standing before a mirror ne is
almost certain to throw out his chest, if
he does not habitually carry it so, and
lake an attitude that he would like to'
have, rather than the one he commonly,
holds; whereas, the tailor wants him,
as the portrait painted wants his sub-,
jeet, in his natural pose and manner.
With the man in that attitude, the tailor
can bring his art to bear if that is re
quired in the overcoming of any physi
cal defect, and produce clothes that will
give the best attainable effect upon the
figure, as they will be actually worn.
rhe physical defect most common in
man is unevenness of the shoulders.
One shoulder is higher than the other,
and this is a defect often encountered,
though the difference in the height
mayiot be so great as to be noticeable,
except by one accustomed to taking
note of such things. This is a defect
lhat is easily overcome by the tailor,
when it exists in a comparatively mod
crate degree. It is done sometimes
simply by cutting the coat to fiton each
shoulder, the perfect fitting coat car
rying with it the idea and the appear
ance of symmetry is attained by the fa
miliar method of building up or pad
ding the lower shoulder. The influence
of the lower shoulder extends down on
that side of the body, so that sometimes
it is necessary below the arm to cut
that side of the coat shorter. Next to
unevenness of the shoulders, round
shoulders are perhaps the commonest
defect.
A very common thing is unevenness
of the hips. A difference of half an inch
here would not be at all remarkable; it
is sometimes much more. If a man
finds one leg of his trousers the legs
as he knows, being alike in length
touching the ground while the other
clears it, he may reasonably consider
that ther is a difference somewhere in
his lev It may be thai one leg is longer-
than the other, but it is more prob
able that one hip is higher than the
other, or one leg fuller, so that it takes
up the trousers more and thus gradual
ly raises the bottom more. It would be
a common thing if men were seen with
their waistcoats off, to find suspenders
set at uneven heights. The variation
in the suspenders might be reqttired,
to be sure, by a difference in the shoul
ders, and not in the legs.
It is common to find men's arms of
different lengths. The difference may
be so slight as to require no special at
tention in the making of their clothes,
but it is frequently necessary to make
the coat sleeves of different lengths.
The fact appears to be that there are
not many perfect men, that is, men of
perfect harmony of development and
perfect sj'mmetry of proportions, in
which respect man is like all things in
nature, like horses, for instance, and
trees; but in the greater number of
men these defects are within such lim
its that they might be described as va
riations rather than as substantial de
fects. N. Y,-Sun.
HOW A FILIPINO DIES.
Stretches Himself Oat In an Eauy
Attitntle Much Like a
Wild Animal.
The general, in a white hat, was
marching in advance of the firing line,
when the discharge of a rifle was heard
in the yard of a house next to the road.
Several soldiers rushed into the yard,
but not in time to prevent two more
shot3,whieh came whizzing in the di
rection of the general. At this moment
I came to a break in the hedge where I
could see what was going on. A young
Filipino Avas about 30 yards off. He was
turning this way and that like an ani
mal at hay, thoroughly frightened', lie
had a rifle in his hand. It afterwards
turned out that this rifle was choked.
The soldiers were breaking down the
high hedge to get in. Suddenly the Fili
pino made a run for life. He got through
the hedge some way and dashed across
an open field. Three shots followed,
all of which took effect. The wounded
man turned, ran sideways a few paces,
lay down on the ground, and a second
after was dead. I got a good sight of
the whole incident, and so naturally
did the Filipino stretch himself along
the ground and rest his head upon his
arm that I thought he was shamming.
An examination a minute later proved
that he was dead. There is this differ
ence between the manner in which
American and Filipino soldiers die
the American falls in a heap and dies
hard; the Filipino stretches himself
out, and when dead is always found in
some easy attitude, generally with his
head on his arms. They die the way a
wild animal dies in just such a posi
tion as one finds a" deer or an antelope
which one has shot in the woods. John

America's Women Minister.
There are to-day about 300 women
ministers in the United States. In
America the ministry is being more
used by women as a profession than the
law. The great value of women min
isters in America is for scattered parts
that cannot possibly afford to support
a man. They can maintain a woman
minister. The chief opposition to
women pastors comes from ministers
of the poorer and least qualified class.
Of course the older and more conserva
tive ministers, bishops and the like,
clo not look with much pleasure on a
woman in the pulpit. But many con
gregations in the United States are
ready for women ministers. Chicago
