MONUMENT TO CHICKEN
RHODE ISLAND REDS GET A
MEMORIAL GIVEN BY POUL
TRYMAN. OF THAT STATE.
[or the first time in American his
{ory 4 national monument of granite
and bronze is to be erected to a chick
on. The approved design is a bronze
male Rhode Island Red of great size
on a large granite boulder. The monu
ment will be pl'aced in Adamsville, R.
1. 1 ftting tribute to a noble bird,
ays the Dearborn Independent. |
“Q.venty-one years ago a sailor, re
qurning from a voyage to the Orient,
presented a friend in Rhode Island
with a Chittagong cockerel which he
fad picked up for a pet while on shore
jeave on the northwestern part of the
[ndo-China® peninsula in what was
once a part of Burma and is now in
the province of Bengal,* India. e
[his bird was a giant size game
cock with brilliant red plummage and
plack feathers on his breast. It was
placed with what had originally been
Cochin Chinas, but which had lost
.ome of their original characteristics
through crossbreeding with other
fowl.
The Cochin Chinas came from the
southeastern extremity, while the
(hittagong came from a point in the
iterior, to the north and west. It is
not known who first brought the Co
chin Chinas to Rhode Island, but it is
an established fact that they came long
heiore the Chittagong arrived.
Wwilliam Tripp, the man who was
presented with the Chittagong cock
erel, and John Macomber, a friend, of
Westport, Mass., were both market
ing cggs and trying to develop better
g layers which would also dress
well for the table. They exchanged
poultry from time to time. Mr. Ma
comber received a cockerel and a doz
en pullets obtained from the cross
hreeding of the Chittagong and Co
chin Chinas, in exchange for some of
hic birds. The new strain was called
“Tripp” or “Macomber” chickens and
became very popular.
Dr. A. A. Brigham, then director of
the Rhode Island agricultural experi
ment station, recognizing the worth
and possibilities of the “Tripp hen,”
persuaded the owners to standardize
the strain. It was then suggested that
45 they were a Rhode Island product,
and were of a red plumage, they be
called “Rhode Island Reds.”
When first exhibited at the Provi
dence poultry show in 1895 the new
comers carried first prize in every
event entered. When the Rhode Is
land Reds began to be better known
many imitations sprung up.

YOUTHS OF ABOUT 21 YEARS
ARE THE WORST CRIMINALS
(Continued From Page 1, Col. 7)
er frequently pay no more attention
to the true standards of life than do
his parents. He sees nothing but loose
ness of life everywhere.
“Thus there has been a revolution
—or an evolution—in crime in recent
years, not a real increase. In the days
past the yeggman' blew a safe, robbed
a home at night, broke into a store
at night. Now, the hold-up is in day
light, the murder in the glare of the
sun, the trigger pulled by a boy per
haps still in his teens. It's a new type
of crime, not an increase.
“In days past we knew just when
to expect a ckime wave and we pre
pared for it, with the result that it
generally was checked ere it,got well
started. Weather conditions were a
factor—the hardships of cold weather
brought on crime to get money for
the winter. In the spring the yegg
made his getaway touch—his theft of
money or property to get a stake to
g 0 to a new city or start a new series
of crimes.
“Now it's the boy criminal who goes
out gun in hand to rob and shoot if
he gets pressed that we have to deal
with,
“The blame for this condition in
crime lies first with the parent. The
cure for this condition lies with the
parent. If the parents will train their
children right the safety of life and
property will increase. In this train
ing I would lay down this program:
“Back to religion, back to God,
back to home life and prayer, back to
the old home standards, back to per
sonal supervision of child by parent,
back to purity of standards of living;
away from irreverence for God, for
home and for father and mother. Away
from irreverence for law. Away from
booze parties, petting parties, lasci
vious literature, false standards of life
and all that leads to them.”

STARS OF EARLY WINTER PUT
IN THEIR APPEARANCE
SOON THIS MONTH.
Just as with a lot of folks, October
is moving time with the stars. Above

the brilliant stars of early winter. The
fall trek is in order,

degrees east of the sun and on the

ricornus, the sea goat, and Aquarius,
the water bearer, two constellations
of the zodiac that contain no stars
brighter than the third magnitude,
have taken the places of the brilliant
zodiacal groups of Scorpio and Sagir
tarius that were conspicuous in the
southern sky during the summer. Ve

western sky after sunset since late in
June, will be seen as the evening star
in the southwest for about two hours

‘Vapors From Baking
~ Bread Produce Alcohol
i e——
{ls Said to Be Equal to the Very Best
} Product From Grain.
| BERLIN.—Signor Andrustana, an
{ltalian engineer, has perfected a meth
{od of extracting alcohol from the va
{pors of baking bread. He collected a
{liquid that was from 65 to 85 per cent
{ pure alcohol.
E The refined product is equal in ev
lery respect to the best grain alcohol,
[but the product as coming from the
,vapor cannot be used. commercially
{without further treatment. Apparently
it is merely a condenser which liqui
'fies the collected vapors from an oven
where bread is baking.
A device similar to an oil trap in a
condenser is used to separate the wa
ter from the alcohol. Tests made here
show that 100 pounds of bread pro
duce a pint of alcohol, which is a clear
gain, since the apparatus operates au
tomatically, the only cost being that
for installation. ‘
