Cleveland, Ohio—In spite of the
war, the season of 1.918 was one of
the most successful the (irand Circuit
■ has. ever known. It began at North
Randall, Clevehind on July 8 and end-
ed at Atlanta, (la., on Oct. IV).'
Two hundred and forty-nine races
were ogntested, 147 for trotters and
102 for pacers. Of the 1.088 horses
that started LORI were trotters and
(1-12 pacers. Trotters were in the
money (ifjO' times and pacers 40(1 times.
A total i( 770 heats were rati and 150

jKiultry taken hy thieves *75 a serious
detriment to production, ns it discour-
ages farmers and causes them to re-
druei their iioultry flocks. It-lias bet'll
our observation that 'the commercial
pouttrynian or the farmer with large
poultry buildings seldom loses birds
from that cause. The farmer with tlie
small poultry house is more apt to
lose a per cent Of his flock by thieves.
It Is evident that the poultry thief has
a sort of respect for the poultryman
who is making It a business anil he
leaves him alone. On the other baud
tlie thief may realize that tlie sideline
pottltryman T? not SO dependent on his
p< ultrv lor an. income and so such a
farmer is given less consideration.
Possibly it may follow that a gen-
eral Improvement in the poultry house
may not < ul.v give ,the birds JnOi'e pfb-
teitiui from wind and weather, but
also deter poultry thieves from oper-
ating. Poultry thieves are often men
who are quite honcrnble In tlieiV oth-
er dealings, hut fhC}' feel that visiting
a hen rOost Is not a serious crime if
it-does not' cause ‘loo much hardship
to the owner of tlie liens.
Tlie value pf a weii-hred dog can-
not lie questioned on tlie lmultry farm.
At night such a dog will quickly give
the alarm and most thieves will de-
part without breaking into tlie houses.
Tlie dog gives the owner a chance to
protect ids stock. If tlie houses are
well built and locked every night it
will take a thief some time to 1*11 ter.
Even the open-front house is quite
well protected if quarter-inch mesh
wire cloth is securely .nailed from tlie
inside. In a large ' poultry house n
dog kennel enii be placed. Place a uer
vy Airedale Terrier in that kennel
and one look through the window will
slop the average thief. Before the
thief can break in the door, tlie dog
will have made enough noise tov wake
the neighliors for half n mile around.
Tlie location of the farm poultry
house should not lie too close to the
lead If it Can be avoided. The. house
away from the road is less temptation
