J908\nNO. 39\nNO ESTIMATES\nPresented for Intercolonial\nYET CIRCULAR SENT OUT\nSIR WILFRID LAURIER DEFENDS\nCLAUSE 17 OF ELECTIONS BILL\nAND DECLARES IT NOT IN-\nTENDED.TO DESTROY SECRECY\nOF BALLOT.\n(Special to The Dally News.)\nOTTAWA, June 8\u2014The morning session of the commons was taken up with\na protest against a circular issued to the\n' Intercolonial employees to the effect that\nowing to no supply being voted no\nsalaries were forthcoming.\nFowler, Haughton, Lennox and Foster\ndwelt on the tact that this estimate had\nnot been asked for, the opposition not\n-withholding the salary estimates.\nOn behalf of Col. Hughes Roche was\nInformed that the government was not\nwithdrawing the Lee-Enfield rifle on account of the blowing back on the Rock-\ncliff range wherein Lieut. Wolsely was\ninjured recently.\nDaniels, St. John conlinued in the\nsame strain and wanted more detail in\nthe estimates.\nR. L. Borden followed complaining of'\nthe delay ln bringing down the civil\nservice bill and Hudson's bay legislation.\nThe premier complained of the hostility to the election bill, explaining that\nclause 17 was intended to protect voters\nfrom returning officer's errors und was\nnot designed to attack the secrecy of\nthe ballot.\nit was the duty of Ihe house to vote\nsupply; despite legislation the country\nmun still go on. The salaries outside of\nthe dominion land service lead to a long\ndiscussion with queries as lo items\nand on forest preservation.\nDuring the discussion on coal leases,\nRalph Smith, Nanalmo, supported by G.\nW. Fowler and W. A. Galliher, criticized\nthe conditions which restricted leases\nto 21 years. There was no provision for\na renewal ln the regulations and the\nspeakers urged that such be inserted.\nHon. Frank Oliver did not promise\nany change ill the regulations but announced himself as favorable to renewals\nprovided the codltlons of the leases were\nobservd.\nTh house adjourned at 11:10 p.m. after\npassing the Interior department supplies\nto the amount of $904,000.\nThe railway aud mllltla estimates are\non the order sheet for tomorrow.\nOTTAWA, June 8\u2014When the house\nmet this morning the private bills on the\norder paper were taken up and advanced a stage.\nA large number of questions were answered and all went smoothly until the\ngovernment orders were called and a\nmotion made for committee of supply.\nThen Mr. Fowler complained of the\nterms of the notice which had been served upon Intercolonial railway employees\nthat their salaries could not be paid until supplies had heen voted by parliament. Fowler declared the government\nwas trying hard to create the impres3ion\nthat the opposition were blocking the\npassage of supplies but the fact was the\nminister of railways never asked for\nsupplies to pay his department until last\nFriday night, whilst today he was.absent casting hla vote In Brockvllle in the\nprovincial election. The responsibility is\non the government. From a perusal of\nHansard from November to January he\nnoticed that the government supporters\nhad occupied 38 columns more space\nthan the opposition.\nHaughton Lennox, Slmcoe, also put\nthe responsibility of wasting time on the\ngovernment.\nR. L. Borden said the government was\nbehind hand ln the preparation of its estimates and other business. The civil\nservice bill, the Hudson's Bay Railway\nbill and the Manitoba Boundary hill were\nin the same position.\nPremier Laurier in reply said the opposition was clouding the-Issue. The\ngovernment had been plainly Informed\nIn the house that no more money for\nsupply would be granted and no other\nbusine.s passed until the government had\ndiscussed the objectionable clause of the\nelection hill. With 'regard to those features of that bill the government had\nnot Introduced the measure in any spirit\nof unfriendliness to the opposition' nor\nhad it made any attempt to ram the\nmeasure down the throat, of the opposition but It was anxious to meet the wish\nof the opposition just as far as was possible. Clause 17 of the bill had been attacked by the opposition on the ground\nthat it was aimed at destroying the secrecy of the ballot, but sir Wilfrid said\nthat clause was merely drawn to guard\nagainst honest electors being disfranchised by actions of returning officers.\nThis was a matter, however, that the\ngovernment was quite prepared to discuss with the house. But In the meantime the first duty of parliament was to\nvote supplies which were required tor\nthe conducting of public service. The^\navailable supplies were exhausted In the\nmiddle of May, yet the opposition had\nrefused another vote on account and the\ngovernment's only course was to let the\nelection bill, the Hudson's Bay Railway\nhill and the civil service bill stand until\nsupply had been granted. The government did not ask the house to swallow\nthe estimates holus bolus, but It was the\nduty ot both sides of the house'to see\nthat the wheels of the government were\nbot blocked, tbat mosey be provided for\npublic servants' salaries and the current\nobligations of the country.\nMr. Borden replied that the opposition\nhad been passing supply at the rate of\na million dollars a day, but sir Wilfrid\nsaid that was not sufficient.\nShortly before 1 o'clock the house\nwent Into committee of supply and took\nup the vote of $320,000 for salaries of dominion land officers.\nA SUMMARY BY THE A.P.\nGENERAL   RESULTS   IN   ONTARIO\nAND QUEBEC\nFIGURES     SLIGHTLY     DIFFERENT\nFROM BULLETINS\nTORONTO, June S.\u2014Today's elections in Ontario resulted in a landsweep\nIn favor of the Whitney government.\nIn the last house of 98 members Mr.\nWhitney had behind him 70 members,\nleaving the opposition 28. At the last\nsession the number of seats was Increased to 10G. The conservatives\nthought that If they were able to carry\n70 seats in today's elections they would\nbe holding their own. The increased\nrepresentation being given to the liberals.\nThe government however did much\nbetter than anticipated, carrying no less\nthan 86 seats, leaving 17 for the liberals, two seats being in dbnbj, and Mr.\nS udholme, the labor candidate being\nelacted In Hamilton.\nAll the members of the government\nwere returned .mostly by a very large\nmajority, the exception being Hon. Nelson Monteith, in South Perth, who has\nonly a majority of 30. Tho conservatives carried all eight seats ln Toronto\nand nearly all by majorities running\ninto the thousands, most of the other\ncandidates losing their deposits.\nThe best fight was made by Rev. D. C.\nHossack, who was defeated by John\nShaw by only about 400.\nNew Ontario went solidly'for the government, though the returns received\naie not yet fully completed, the majorities appearing to be large.\nLiberals were elected in the following\nconstituencies: Bruce, south; North\nGrey, Haldimnnd, Centre Huron, East\n\u25a0Lambton, North Middlesex, West Middlesex, West Northumberland, Bast Ottawa, North Oxford, South Oxford,\nNorth Renfrew, Russell, East Slmcoe,\nStormont, West Wellington, South\nWentworth, Studholme. Labor was\nelected In East Hamilton. Leeds and\nManitoulln are in doubt and till the remainder of the seats were carried by\nthe government candidates.\nMONTREAL, June 8.\u2014The Quebec\nelections vvhich took place today resulted In the return of the Qottln government by a reduced majority. The opposition had seven members ln the last\nhouse; in the new one they will have\nsixteen.\nThe feature of the contest was the\nfight in the St. James division of Mon-\ntteal between premier Gouln and Henri\n'Bourassa, the nationalist leader. The\npremier was considered impregnable In\nthis division, which he has represented\nfor some years, but Mr. Bourassa conducted a whirlwind campaign and\ndowned the premier hy 51 votes. The\npremier will be in the next house as\nhe was also a candidate in Portneuf\nand was elected there by a majority of\n825. Mr. Bourassa ran for two constituencies, his second being St. Hya-\ncinthe, where the vote was a tie. The\nreturning officer will vote for Mr. Bou-\nrassa's opponent but the prospects are\nlhat Mr. Bourassa will be seated on the\nrecount. Another foature was the defeat of the the conservative leaders Messrs. Leblanc and Pelletler, the\nformer In Laval by 17 and the latter in\nDorchester by a large majority.\nArmand Lavergne, who resigned his\nseat in the house of commons to run\nfor Montmagny succeeded. Ail the\nmembers of the Gouln government were\nreturned by good majorities.\nThe constituencies curried hy the\nconservatives and nationalists were:\nBeauharnois, Charlevoix, Chateaugay,\nConipton, Two Mountains, Jacques Car*\nt er, Jo.iette, Lapraitie, Masktnonge,\nMegantlc, Montmagny, St. James and\nSt. Antoine divisions of Montreal, Ottawa, Shefford and Verchares. The independent liberal candidate was elected\nin L'Assomptlon and Quebec east, de-\nleafing the government candidate. Both\nwill vote with the government. All\nother constituencies elected straight\nsupporters of tho government.\nJ.  Y.  GRIFFIN'S   LOSS\nFIRE ON  SUNDAY AFTERNOON   IN\nWINNIPEG\nDAMAGE    ESTIMATED   AT   ABOUT\n$50,000\nWINNIPEG, June 8\u2014The J. Y. Griffin\ncompany's pork plant in Elm wood, a suburb of Winnipeg, was damaged to the\nextent of $60,000 by a lire which broke\nout yesterday afternoon.\nThe fire started in the packing room\nand spread to the lard and pig killing department all of which were absolutely\ndestroyed. The main building Including\nthe cooling, storage and beef killing sections, the smoking department, engine\nhouse and pens were Baved after a hard\nfight.

J. P. Whitney and the conservative patty.\nMr. Whitney commenced tbe battle\nyesterday with the record of a majority\nof 42 in a house of 98 members. Today he has a majority of anywhere from\n67 to 69 ln a house of 106, leaving out\nof the count Hamilton's labor member.\nThe conservative majority of 42 obtained in 1905 was regarded as* phenomenal. What can be said of the majority given yesterday?\nA reduction ln the conservative majority was looked for by tne liberals\nat Ottawa. Such a reduction would\nhave been, encouraging to the liberals\nfor their approaching appeal lo the peo\np e In the dominion elections. Now that\nthe majority has not been reduced but\nvery materially Increased,,what then?\nThe conservative members in the dominion house cannot fail to be greatly\nencouraged by the results in Ontario\nand Quebec. ,\nThe conservative party from ocean to\nocean will now look forward eagerly to\nthe dominion contest. Following tbe\nturnover in New Brunswick conies tlie\nhigh tide of victory in Ontario and the\ngood allowing in Quebec, against great\nodds. Wherever the people have had\nan opportunity to express their views\nof late, they have turned down the later\nliberalism, as manifested at Ottawa today and when the federal struggle\ncomes it will Hnd a united conservative\nparty in the field from Halifax to Vancouver backed up by the votes of the\npeople,\nThe answer given by Ontario yesterday can have only one meaning for the\nlibera] party\u2014notice to quit.\nOntario\nThe following are the returns from Ontario. The names of the candidates are\ngiven, the candidate elected and the record of the constituency at the last election.\nThere will be some corrections.\nBoth sides claim Leeds and there is\nsome doubt about South Perth. No returns are In from Manitoulln and Parry\nSound, but both are expected to go conservative.\nAddington\u2014W. J. Paul, Con., elected\nhy acclamation. Last election Con. by\n625.\nAlgoma\u2014W. R.

In place of this the liberals will\nhave only 18 members ln a house of 106,\ngiving the conservatives ln the house a\n\u2022M**-*-***********-****-*-.***^^\nInsurance   Real Estate   Lands\nCall on us for Fire, Life, Accident and Illness, Plate Glass and Boiler\n_     Insurance.\nSnaps ln Houses and Building Lots.\nFruit Ranches on West Arm of Kootenay Lake and all other districts,\nPROCTER & BLACKWOOD, -^fac.\ntJsst&tAto#&s&&d4setMMmm$i)ts9\n_SZ$&l__S$&iVX!&iSSSS.\n-t_\nPost Card\nAlbums'\nTO HOLD\n25 \"Cards, 25c each,\n100 Cards,45c, 60c, 90c and up.\n200 Cards,7Sc, 89c, and up.\nSOO Cards, $1.25, $1.50 and up.\n400 Cards', $1.50, $2.25 and up.\n1000 Cards, $3.75, $4.00, $5.75.\nThe buying and sending ot Picture\nPost Cards, Instead of dying out as\nmany people have thought that It would,\nis increasing all the time.\nThere ts a substantial reason why\nthis is so, and why it will continue to\nbe so.\nThe reason Is that It is not a \"fad\" or\na \"craze,\" as many people call it.

B.\nstraight party vote the huge majority\nof 69, with one labor vote to be accounted for.\nManitoulln and Parry Sound, both of\nwhich returned conservatives at the last\nelection, have yet to be heard from.\nLeeds is in doubt, and in the estimate\nof the government majority of 69 these\nthree seats have been counted for the\ngovernment.\nIn Quebec the conservatives and nationalists will make a showing in the\nhouse in the next legislature and some\nsurprising results have been obtained.\nIn Montreal premier Gouin was defeated\nby Henri Bourassa and In St. Hyacinthe\nMr. Bourassa who ran,for this constituency also, was only defeated by one vote.\nIn Montmagny senator Choquette has\nbeen defeated by Armand Lavergne, who\nresigned his seat in the commons to run\nagainst the senator as a nationalist, the\nsenator being a straight liberal candidate. Mr. Leblanc, the conservative\nleader, was defeated for Laval by a small\nmajority.\nIt should be remembered that in Ontario the opposition has beeu since the\nlast provincial election under three different leaders. Hon. G. \"W. Ross, now\na senator, Hon. G. P, Graham, now a\nminister In the Ottawa cabinet and A. G.\nMcKay, and this in itself no doubt accounts in some measure for Mr. Whitney's enormous majority.\nThe result in both provinces is of\ncourse tremendously in favor of the conservatives and cannot fail to be regarded\nby sir Wilfrid Laurier aud the liberal\nparty all over Canada as a significant\nhint of what may very naturally be\nlooked for when the dominion elections\ncome off. The hand writing on the wall\nis plain enough for anyone to read.\nEDITORIAL   NOTES\nIn response to a request received from\nearl Grey the provincial government has\nagreed to donate the sum of $10,000 to\nthe fund just being raised by the National Battlefield commission for the perpetuation of the Plains of Abraham as a\nnational battlefield park. In this city\nan entertainment will be held in aid of\nthe fund In question on next Monday\nweek aud it Is to be hoped that a substantial sum will be realized., The movement has been endorsed by the press\nand public from one end of Canada to the\nother and while the province as a whole\nis represented by the larger amount contributed by the government, Nelson will\ndo well to send a modest sum as her\nshare towards this national undertaking.\nThe story published elsewhere in thla\nmorning's issue on \"The City of a Million Hens,\" should make some of the\nKootenay ranchers do some tall thinking.\nThe poultry business instead of being'\nthe usual unprofitable adjunct to a farm,\ncan be made an occupation to yield liberal returns under the management of\nkeen, sagacious business men.\nThe Province thinks thatHhe Kootenay\nliberals displayed good judgment in selecting Smith Curtis as their candidate in\nthe approaching federal elections, \"But\"\nadds the coast paper, \"granting to Mr.\nSmith Curtis all that his friends can flay\nin his favor, the fact still remains that\nhe Is the candidate of the Laurier ministry; that he asks the country to condone all the criminal conduct of which\nthat government has been guilty. He\nasks the electors of Kootenay to overlook\nthe misconduct of almost every member\nof the cabinet and to renew the power\nof the government to do what it has\ndone in the past. As an independent\nmember, Smith Curtis might be a desirable representative of British Columbia in parliament, but he certainly cannot be such as the choice of the liberal\nmachiue.n-\nIt seems probable that an agreement\nwill be reached between sir Wilfrid Laur-\nles and Mr. Borden In regard to the proposed Franchise Amendment act, says\nthe Colonist. Mr. Roblin is to he asked\nto revise the Manitoba regulations and\nafter that all will go well. Meanwhile\nBritish Columbia seems to be Ignored,\nwhich is the best proof that can be asked\nthat there never was any reason to interfere w(th this province.\nUNWRITTEN  LAW\nNew York Trained Nurse Shoots Down\na Doctor\nNEW YORK, June 8.\u2014Sarah Koten,\nthe young trained nurse who lured Dr.\nMaitin W. Auspitz to a house in Harlem last night with .a false sick call by\ntelephone and shot him after she had\nIain in waiting for him many hours,\nsaid that she had no regret for her act.\n\"I shot him but I did not murder him,\"\nshe said in a cell in the police station\nas she awaited the summons to appear\nin court. \"I killed him because he had\nwronged me and then refused to help\nme. I tried to punish him in the courts\nbut found myself powerless. My father\nand mother are dead, so I had to protect my honor.\"\nThere seems little doubt that when\nthe case against the girl goes to trial\na jury once more will have an opportunity to pass on \"the unwritten law,\"\nor the justification of murder under certain circumstances.\nINSANE DOCTOR\nHeld Police at Bay and Finally Com-\nmited Suicide\nWASHINGTON, June 8.\u2014After holding the police at bay for six hours Dr.\nJoseph Posplslel, an employee of the\npension office, shot himself throug the\nbrain yesterday while insane.\nLaboring under a delusion that an attempt was being made to murder him,\nhe fired at pedestrians, into the homes\nof his neighbors and at the' police. Altogether he fired about 50 shots in this\nway, none of which, however, took effect. His wife became alarmed when\nhe opened flie on the policemen and\ntook refuge with a neighbor.

Ottawa, Ont.\nCITY OF MILLION HENS\nPOULTRY RAISING CONDUCTED AS\nA BUSINESS i\nLIBERAL   RETURNS   UNDER  KEEN\nMANAGEMENT\nA visit yesterday to J. Fred Hume's\nranch directly opposite the foot of Ward\nstreet, resulted ln seeing what can he\naccomplished in a modest way on a\nsuburban chicken farm. The ranch itself is comparatively small, the cleared\nacreage being in the neighborhood of 15\nand the formation being a series of terraces up from the water's edge. At the\npresent time Mr. Hume has over (200\nchickens, ducks and turkeys, with Incubator, brooder, hen houses and chicken\nruns. Water Is laid on from a nearby\nspring and there are vegetable patches,\nsmall fruits In abundance, besides some\nfruit trees and a very comfortable private residence for tho fortunate proprietor and his family.\nMr. Hume's ranch Is only one of very\nmany that have sprung into existence\nhereabouts in the past three years and\nit is to the poultry side of the venture\nthat special attention ls directed.\nAppended will be Found in part an excellent article taken from the World's\nWork, entitled \"A City ot a Million\nHens,\" showing how poultry raising can\nbe conducted as a business venture with\ntremendous success. \"The universal opportunity,\"-says the author. \"If at Peta-\nlutna, why not elsewhere?\"\nSome 50 miles north of San Francisco,\nthe town of Petaluma lies on a moor\nbetween low mountains. It is largely\nbuilt up on the poultry industry. In the\nportion of Sonoma county tributary to\nthe town over 120 million eggs were produced in 1907, more than 10 million\ndozen. At least 75 per cent of the people of the country raise poultry. It is\nnot an occupation relegated to the grand;\ned to the grand mothers. It is a man's\noccupation. In Petaluma men are chicken raisers as they are elsewhere bankers, merchants, or lawyers. It requires\nsagacity, tact, experience and knowledge.\nIt yields returns, which considering the\ncapital required, are not large. There are\nmany who fall, but they are those whq\ncome ill prepared, lacking in application,\ninadequate in knowledge. They would\nfail anywhere at anything. But those\nwho are fit, those who make it their\nbusiness, not a side issue, earn handsome\nincomes.\nI visited an egg man having a ranch of\nthe larger type. He had nearly 7000 laying hens. He was thatching yellow\nchicks in incubators by the thousand,\nintending after disposing of the young\nroosters as broilers to raise his stock to\na minimum of 10.000. This man, a keen,\nintelligent business man, was making a\nnet profit each year of $6000. . He and\ntwo helpers did all the work. The 420\nacres oE his chicken ranch had also\nyielded him considerable revenue from\na herd of dairy cattle, but these he was\nreducing in number in order that he\nmight give more attention to chickens.\nHe never netted less than 50 cents per\nhen in the most untoward season; not\ninfrequently the net revenue on these\nranches rises to considerable over a dollar per hen per year, but a dollar net\nprofit, may be taken as the average.\nThere are three poultry ones in Petaluma. First, the section of the town\nitself in which the families keep a few\nhens for their own table use in a wire\nenclosure in a backyard. For example,\na family counting eggs a capital food\nand consuming a good many of them in\na year, grew rather tired of the high\ncity prices that prevailed. Wire netting\nwas bought, a yard constructed, a couple\nof small houses built, one for roosting\nand one for laying purposes; two dozen\nhens were bought. Not all were laying\nhens, but in a few months the pullet\ndays of such as were not producing were\nover and they entered upon their matronly duties. Careful study of the hen\nas a machine has been made. What was\nneeded to make her lay was developed.\nSensible feeding and strict care followed. During the period when eggs were\nvery scarce the little flock of 16 or 18\nhens yielded a net income of over 70 per\ncent ou the money invested, continuing\nthis when the larger output of warmer\nweather balanced the fall in price.* This\nwill suggest what the hen will do in a\nsmall way when she given adequate consideration.\nThe next zone ln the Petaluma region\nbegins about a mile and a half out of\nthe center of the town and le perhaps\nthree miles wide. This zone ls occupied\nby the small chicken ranchers, those who\nkeep from 1000 to 1500 or even 1800\nhenc. It was in this zone that I found\nan egg-man who applied Emerson's dictum: \"It is the man who is most energetic who Is most successful.\" He will\nserve as an example for the second district.\nHe had come from Michigan some\nyears ago, had engaged in other business in California, but finally, being\nsomewhat out of sorts physically and\nwanting an outdoor occupation, he purchased a few hens and set himself up\non four or five acres of ground. He had\nadded to his stock until he had 1500\nhens. They were housed In small buildings, with roosting places ln each for\nperhaps 75 hens, sleeping above in the\nfloored part, finding the dark place\nthey seek for their egg-laying In the\nlower portion.\nOn the lower part of his ground he\nhad a windmill which pumped up water\nto his tank on the higher ground; from\nthere the water was piped as needed.\nA fine little lot of kale was growing at\none side, which was fed green to the\nhens while he was planning a place for\nalfalfa; this latter, when chopped fine,\naffording one of the most desirable green\nfoods. He did all the work himself. He\nhad a comfortable home and things looked prosperous. His working capital, that\nInvested In hens, was relatively small,\nprobably not over $1200. Allowing for\nall expenses he had cleared, net, In 1907\n$1.30 each on his 1500 hens\u2014$2160. And\nhad done It easily and comfortably and\nwith plenty of time for his little library\nand his Emerson. But he had not ac<\ncompllshed It without knowledge -anl\nIntelligent care, without a study of mar.\nket, without what he called business\nsense. He considered lta real man's\nwork, a dignified bit of labor In which he\nhad found health and profit. Hundreds\not such ranches I could see In this second\nzone as I drove outward to the last\nsection amidst much cackling and crowing.\nThe foothills were now. rising about\nme as I drove outward. Mile upon mile\nthe rolling country stretched away, disclosing scores of little houses, like children's play houses or kennels for sedate dogs. All about them, ranging over\nthe sunny slopes, were thousands of\nsnowy chickens looking wondrous neat\nand spick and span against the green\ngrass. Sometimes In the far distance,\nwhere perhaps a thousand or two would\nbe gathered at a common center, they\nlooked like a patch of snow. Practically\nall these chickens were of the breed\nknown as White Leghorns. Now and\nthen some other breed ls seen, but you\nwill scarcely find on these ranches where\npractical work is done any other hen but\nthe White Leghorn, unless here and\nthere a coop of some fancy stock kept\nlor breeding purposes. The White Leghorn rarely wants to sit; she lays most\nindustriously; she is hardy; she begins\nto lay when very young.\nMany of the houses for the chickens\nupon these large ranches are built upon\nold fashioned sled runners, so that whel\nit becomes necessary to clean out the\nhouses, they can be drawn away from\ntheir location and the manure gathered\nfor fertilizing purposes.\nAt all points on the ranch thrift is\npractised. The men who manage them\nare wide awake; they keep up with the\ntimes; they read the poultry journals of\nthe east and west; they take active part\nin public poultrymen's gatherings; they\nare keen to adopt new methods of feeding and care, but to slow to make any\nchanges until the new has been tested.\nIn front of an egg buyer's place of\nbusiness, also a supply house, in Petaluma, I counted 40 different kinds of\npreparations for the hen, nearly all foods\nof one sort or another, brought out by\nthose who would share some of the profits of the egg man.\nFrom any higher point of ground in\nthis last zone, one may look out upon the\nrolling landscape where scores of farms\nor ranches can be seen in the distance,\nranging from 50 or 60 acres to 400 acres,\nor even more. The number of hens on\nthese ranches varies from 3000 to 10,000.\nI heard of one man who had successfully\nhandled 15,000. Naturally, responsibility\nincreases with the output, but with a\nmachine in service which, properly cared\nfor, works on the same, year in and year\nout, until Its short life is ended and it\nis replaced by others already on the\nway, there would be needed, it seems,\nonly broader supervision and larger facilities to expand indefinitely.\nSome of these larger ranches sell direct to the merchants in San Francisco,\nothers to the Petaluma agents of city\nfirms. For two years a large Chicago\nmeat packing establishment has contracted to take all the eggs raised, at a\nminimum figure of 20 cents a dozen, the\nprice ranging above this according to the\nmarket. I understand this contract is\nr.ot to be renewed in 1908, the producers seeking their own market.\nBut the life of the hen, her successful\nlaying period is short; she will do well\nIf she is productlves for three and a half\nyears. She must be killed for market\nand the pullet takes her place; so on in\nan endless procession. It is estimated\nthat there are considerably more than\n1,000,000 hens in the territory of Sonoma county tributary to Petaluma. Tens\nof thousands of these hens must be given\naway each year. The incubator fills\ntheir places. The sitting hen finds no\nfriendly hand to aid her Thi whims\nand petulances of her mood art ruthlessly disregarded. In separate houses\non the big ranches are incubator rooms\nwhere thousands of chickens are hatched\nas occasion demands. Near at hand Is\na brooder house. Here, in a warm room,\nthe little chicks have space to run about\nand get strong by exercise; here they\nfind food; here at night they gather under a cozy covering, where they are cared\nfor as comfortably as though under the\nwings ot their real mother. Sometimes\nthe rancher buys his young chicks direct from the hatcheries in town, paying trom five to seven and a half cents\neach.\nThese town hatching plants usually\nconsist of -long, one-storey buildings in\nwhich are endless rows ot incubators.\nThe temperature ls artlftcaily maintained\nand is kept constant. One of these town\nhatching plants has a capacity of 100,000.\nThat is to say, it can, and does, when the\nseason's demands are heavy, turn out\n100,000 young, chickens every three\nweeks. About ten per cent of these die.\nFrom 35 to SO per cent are roosters.\nThese must be segregated and raised tor\nbroilers for the city market.  They bring\nhandsome prices.\nThe chicks are at once shipped away,\neither to the ranchers hear by, or to the\ncities. They are placed In little compartments, given neither food nor drink,\nand forwarded by express. They need\nno care on the Journey. They have food\nenough in their little bodies to last them\nfor five days, should the Journey be that\nlong. They are shipped from 100D to\n2000 miles in this fashion and are guaranteed to reach their destination la\nprime condition. They go east to Kansas\nCity, south into Old Mexico and north\nInto British Columbia. In Petaluma are\na number of Incubator manufactories,\nwhere the hatching machines are turned\nout in large numbers. In one that I\nvisited, copper sheathing, rolled very\nthin, for use ln the Incubators as lamp\nchimneys and for other purposes, ls purchased by the ton, several tons of copper\nbeing used in a year. I had the pleasure\nof meeting Lyman C. Byce at Petaluma,\nthe man who made the first incubator\nand who is still in business at the head\nof a large establishment. He told me\nthat his poultry papers brought him advertisements for fully one' hundred different types of Incubators, manufactured\nln various parts of the United States,\nso that no one need hesitate for want of\nopportunity for selection. *~.\nROSSLAND TRAIN WRECK\nREAR COACH  OVERTURNED BY A\nBROKEN RAIL\nFORTUNATELY   NO ONE   IS  VERY\nSERIOUSLY INJURED\n(Special to The Dally News.)

The disruption which\nis accompanied by floods is so serious\nthat the operation of the Soo-Spokane\ntrain eastward from this city was discontinued, the train due to leave yesterday afternoon being cancelled by telegraphic advice that the line is indeli-\nnitely cut.\nThe eastbound Oreat Northern Oriental limited was held in Spokane yesterday and after discharging the passengers\nwas turned back to Seattle, running as\nNo. 3. The Oriental Limited brought in\nthree standard sleepers and one tourist\nsleeper filled with passengers. These\nand the through passengers in the day\ncoaches, the total being about 150, were\ntransferred to the 0. R. & N. and the\nUnion Pacific.\nThe break in the main line of the\nGreat Northern Is south of lake McDonald In Montana. This point Is just\neast of the summit of the Rockies. The\ntrack Is submerged in six feet of water,\nfrom the overflow of the Flathead river.\nThe question of the time It win take to\nrepair the line depends on the subsiding\nof the waters. All westbound trains are\nheld east of this point. Five delayed\nNorthern Pacific passengers out of nine\nwhich were routed over the Montana\nCentral branch of the Great Northern,\npassed west of the mountains when the\nbreak occurred. The remaining four\ntrains are held up south .of the washout\non the Central Montana branch between\nHelena and Great Falls.\nThe Northern Pacific Is cut by slides\nand washouts between Livingstone and\nMissoula, the extent of the damage not\nbeing known hy local officials on account\nof breaks tn telegraphic communication.\nThey will not venture further predictions\nas to when the tracks will be repaired,\nhut say that at the outside, service will\nbe re-established within a week. Some\nof the Northern Pacific officials connected with the operating department,\nadmit that It is possible that the tracks\ncan not be repaired Inside of 30 days.\nThe Northern Pacific is concentrating\nall of Its construction forces, and equip\nment in Montana. Yesterday a construction train half a mile long, consisting of\npile drivers, travelling cranes, hoists,\ncars, flat cars, loaded with ties, rails\nand other materials and bunk houses for\nemployees, passed through Spokane lor\nthe scene of the trouble. The traiu was\npulled by two of the big consolidated\nengines and carried a construction gang\nnumbering 300,\nTHE BOUNDARY COUNTRY\nIMPRESSIONS    MADE   ON    FLYING\nTRIP OF  INSPECTION\nERA OF GOOD TIMES IS NOW CONFIDENTLY  EXPECTED\nA flying trip from Nelson through the\nBoundary countiy was made last week\nby a representative of The Daily News.\nThe Ketlle River valley, which is\nreached via the C. P. R. from Nelson, is\nubout 12 miles long and from five to\nseven miles wide, and the most of the\nlaud is particularly adapted to fruit-\nraising, irrigation being necessary only\nafter the Unit trees come into bearing.\nThe soil is a dark rich loam, averaging about, two feet in depth with a\npeicenlage of lime, which is said to\nbave a good effect on maturing the\nfruit, which has been evidenced by the\nfact lhat Grand Forks captured prizes\nfor first against all British Columbia,\nWenatchee, Wash., and Hood River. Or.\nGrand Forks is situated at the juno\nfoil of tbe forks of Kettle river and\nsurrounding tiie town are some of tiie\nmost picturesque fruit, ranches in the\ninterior of British Columbia.\nThe Covert ranch, a short distance\nfrom the city, comprises about, lllo acres\nof absolutely level land free from stones\nand covered with fruit trees from G\nto 8 years old. Some of the largest\nshipments of fruit made from individual\nranches bave been harvested on this\nplace.\nDoull and Tiaunweiser's 40 acres.of\nproducing orchard is also a beautiful\nspot.\nThe Honsberger prune orchard consists of seven and one-half acres of\nsplendid large trees, and laat year eight\ncai loads of prunes were shipped from\nthis ranch.\nThe Riverside nurseries, one also situated at. Grand Forks, and it is stated\ntbat $-..0,001) worth of nursery stock has\nVeen shipped irom this nursery this season, while over 1100,000 trees have been\nset out in the nursery, over 60 acres of\nnew ground having been acquired this\nyear by this Institution, of which Martin  Burrell  is the head.\nThe Murry ranch, situated probably\n1000 feet above the town of Grand\nForks, is a sight that attracts many\nconjeclu es as to how the owner ever\neels up to it. Last year on this ranch\nan exi ei\\ment was made in tlie raising\no'' tobacco, and one ton of excellent leaf\nwas produced. The grade was so good\nthat many of tlie ranchers in the valley are setting out plants this season\nand tobacco-growing may soon be an\nadditional asset as valuable as fruitgrowing is at  present.\nIu addition to its fruit-growing interests Grand Forks boasts the largest\nsmelter In the Dominion of Canada, the\nGianby smelting works, at which em-\nKeep\nCool\nElectric Fans create a breeze on\nthe hotlesi day.

At present between 500 and\n700 men are employed and when the\ncamp is working full force some 1100\nminers can find work. The Brooklyn\nmine, belonging to the Dominion Copper Co., It is stated, will resume work\non June 15 and will probably give employment to 200 men.\nTo anyone who has only a general\nIdea, of how mining Is conducted on\na large scale a -trip around the \"Glory\nHoles\" on the hills at Phoenix will\nprove wonderfully interesting and will\ncause him to think that other mining\noperation  he may have inspected are\nCheap Rates East\nvia\nBurlington Route\nDATES OF SALE:.

R. has agreed to go with\nthe enquiry Into the complaints of the\nmen east and west at Winnipeg. The\nfollowing account ot the flrst meeting\nlast week fs taken from the Free\nPress:\nWith George F. Gait representing the\nC. P. R. the conciliation board, formed\ntn adjust the existing difficulties between the company and the mechanical\nunions, resumed its sittings yesterday\nafternoon.\nThe action of the railway company in\naccepting Mr. Gait as its representative shows tliat it has acceded to the\ndecision of the hoard tliat its jurisdiction be extended over the eastern as\nwell as the western lines, so that this\nphase of the discussion, which took up\n\u2022so much time at the preliminary meeting, is finally settled.\nThe board which settled down to work\nyesterday was composed by P. A. Macdonald, chairman; James Somerville,\narbitrator for the mechanical department of the C. P. R., and G. F. Gait,\nappointed by the minister of labor In\nthe interests of the C. P. R. company,\nhaving neglected to make a nomination.\nSome 15 or 16 men were present in\nthe interests of the mechanics, the rep-\ni esentatives appointed being Bell Hardy,\nJames H. McVety and W. Marshall.\nGrant Hall, who has charge of the\npresentation of the company's case, not\nbeing present, was communicated with\nin his office near the C. P. R. station by\ntelephone, and the board waited his\narrival. On entering the room Mr. Hall\nwas asked if he was prepared to support\nthe changes of rates of pay made by\nthe company. He intimated that he was\nand produced a complete file of the\nschedules of rates as they existed before the changes were made, and afterwards a copy of the rates as proposed.\nBe.l Hardy pointed out that the file\ndid not include the carmen of the western lines nor the federated labor union.\nMr. Hall did not know whether this\nschedule had been printed or whether\nit was signed or authorized. He also\nput in the notice of rules and regulations of the past, and of the new rules\n;;nd regulations, proposed to be brought\nir.to effect after seven days' notice. It\nwould be seen that there was no intention of interfering with good men under\nthe previous schedule. He could give\nthe actual changes, a complete list of\nnames of the men and their locations,\nand show that, roughly speaking, about\nfive per cent were affected according to\nthe schedule. He would also want to\nbring up the question of trade regulations, committee representation, the apprenticeship clause as altered and the\nstatus of labor In the simps. He had one\nw.tneas in the city, whom he could\nbring the next duy. There were others\nwhom he could produce by Friday morning.\nMr. Hall, making a suggestion as to\nsaving time in the enquiry, said that\nthe men had considered these rules and\nregulations all right so far as they\nwent, but as not going far enough and\ngiving protection enough. He had no\nobjection to these points being raised.\nMr. [Hardy explained that he had\nsaid the grievance was more of omission than of commission, but he did\nnot mean that the subject matter contained was entirely as the employees\nwished It.'\nThe chairman asked Mr. Hall to lay\ndown the questions he had to prove. Tbe\npoints left out, he said, were (1) definition of trade; (2) the question of committee representation; (3) proportion\nof apprentices to tradesmen in the\nshops; (4) the rate.\nMr. Hardy said these points were not\nall by any means. The men wanted\neverything that was In their present\nagreement. The notice was only from\none party,\nMr. Hall snld there was nu objection to\nadding some such words as \"from either\nthe company or the employees.\" The company took the position thut thfs was necessary. He wanted three classes of boiler-\nmakers. If relief could not be obtained\nfrom the present position It was intended to\nabolish the bollermakers' helpers. If the\ntradesmen did not allow him to mend his\nways the company would simply put ln a\nlaborer, because that Is all he really Is ln\nmany cases. The helper, practically, should\nbe a helper, but In the way the trades were\nusing him ho Is not a helper. \u2022\nThe board spent some time in yetting explanations on the points on which the difference existed and on which evidence Is to\nbe taken.,\nMr. Somerville wanted to show what the\nreasons were on account of which tbe\nschedule was to be cancelled inside of the\nyear for which such schedules usually run.\nAnother of the list of questions noted for\ntho purposes of the \"investigation was as\nto the meaning of committee representation. ,__       ,\nMr. Hall said a committee of representation was a certain number of men In every\n^*$-**$$sk$$$-\u00bb$*^^\nAll Through the Night\nAt any time during the night you can get any emergency goods from\nir drug store.
