Mclntire says that both the city authori-
ties and himself have made every effort
to have the damage repaired, and that
the delay is caused by the asphalt people.
If the paving was to be done with stone
or some similar material, he said, he
could arrange to do the work himself.

What To Keep.

1t is the practice of some poultrymen
to keep nothing but pullets over for an
other year. They do this for the reason
that they get so many more eggs and
never have old hens to sell. When the
hens are q year old extra feeding for eggs
has tendency to put on too much fat
rather than increase the egg production.
When a hen gets fat her work is over
and she may as well grace the inside of
some roasting pan, for all the good she
will do, unless she is being fitted for the
show room. OF course there will be
some old favorites that will be permitted
to remain on the place and do duty, since
they are known to be extra good ones
and will give good results. With such
hens judicious mating with the proper
kind of males will bring the best of re-
suits in their offsprings. The, male that
is mated with such hens should be young
and from good laying family. We shave
known old hens to be useful for several
years. These are exceptions rather than
the rule Only those who know what
shsy ssa doing along this line will be
safe in keeping hens longer than one
year. Those who have no knowledge of
the business aRd have had no experience
may be keeping hens that are losing
them money all the time Look about
and see if there are hens that are not
paying for their keep. Homestead.
