- mike tho box or boxes narrow enough

aaaae the fbottex between the racks then
-Vot II the cans Of milk. Less ice will be

much easter to handle the milk whether

: GET GOOD STOCK IN POULTRY.
/, There are many people who would ven
turefnto, the poultry business IL they could
do 30 and use as a basis the mongrel stock
b e already have 1t has been repeatedly
proven that mongrel stock is not nearly as
,rro1thble as we'll bred poultry. We do
auptrsnaan' to buy the stock which has it's
snh.efs value because of feather markings,
tbuteahlaer the nearly full-bred with a rec
ord for yigor and good egg production.
such stock can usually be bought for
- e nlms1so mead up and eggs for from $50
ttp = per thirteen. If the cash is short or
.060fS Ill no hurry 1IAo rSOoV pan " uSo
rthe good mother hens from among the
rnonEreis and let them cover all the eggs
from good stock one car afford to buy.
IKeev the mongrels for the carcass market
,,zata YOU nave the proper flock of better
Nred birds and then let the mongrels' go.
Whatever you do, do not let the we'll bred
birds run with the mongrels for the stock
will run fAyn under this plan rather than
be impfcVeo.
CONVICT LABOR ON ROADS.
This may not seem an agricultural ques-
don, but 1t is decidedly SO for the crying
need for good roads in certainly in country
sais1sicts. 1t is the consensus of opinion
chat convict labor should compete as lit
tie as possible with free labor and yet, or
the other hand. 1T is needless cruelty tt
place a man behind prison bars for years
ama not give him any occupation. No mat
ter how bad he may be We have no RICH
to make a luEatic of him. which is the
usual fate of men in durance vile without
occupation. The lack of good roads Il
country districts is largely due to the lacl
of none to make them better so that !
we employed convict labor here the eX
pe1rse- IF the taxpayers would be With.
