My personal experience gained from
nearly twenty-five years Of constant
association with bodies of workingmen
in general, and those connected with
the railway service in particular,
makes me Arm in the belief that a
plain, straightforward presentation of
facts, such as you 80 clearly and ably
outline in your speech, can not fail to
win the commentator and correct sup
port of every American workingman
capable Of impartial and intelligent
comprehension OF the great industrial
problem, In hat it must be clearly evil

just share Of encouragement and pro-
lection under the laws of our com

no right to demand legislation for it.

1T PAYS TO BREED THE Beet.
Why Farmers Should Raise standard
Poultry.

Notwithstanding the great advance
ment made In the breeding of stand
ard poultry throughout the United
States, the farmer is but a small per
cent Of the class of persons which has
taken up this work. Why this is |
cannot say, but records show that the
largest proportion of the prize win
ming birds exhibited in the majority of
poultry shows are raised in cities and
villages. The farmer, as a rule, con-
tributes a very small number Of the
high-class birds that are now being
raised in this country.
The growth of the industry is large
ly due to persons residing In the cit
les. Professional men, business men
and wage earners seem to form the
poultry associations that hold the ex-
hibitions and 1t is the birds raised on
the small lots that occupy the coops
in the show room, with an occasional
exhibitor from the farm. Now Il al
ways seems strange to me, says the
editor OF the American Poultry Jour-
nal, that the American farmer is so
slow to grasp the opportunity that
confronts him In the raising OF stand
ard poultry. He has long been con.
verted to the idea that a razor-back
hog is Improbable; that nothing but
standard bred sheep and cattle are
worth devoting much time to. but still
ne insists that common barnyard fowls
are good enough and that there is no

largest industries In the country. I
wonder II he knows that In dollars
and cents the poultry business ex.
ceeds that Of wheat. Still he is con-
tent and takes no interest In a branch
OF farming that would pay him the
best OF anything on his farm.
IL his argument, that H pays to
raise standard bred hogs and sheen

farmer will give his poultry the same

other branches OF his farm. It will
pay, and the sooner he finds It oul
the sooner he will reap his share ol

STRONG YOUNG CHICKS.
They Come from Only Strong, vlsor-
Gus Stock.

To get good, strong chicks. we must
breed from nothing but strong, vigor-
GUS stock The male bird should be
a fully matured cock or cockerel,
bred from vigorous stock. All breed
ers should be free from vermin and
be fed on good, wholesome food. This
is the first step in getting the eggs
to produce good chicks.
For the little chicks provide clean,
dry quarters, we'll ventilated and free
from lice, explains Farm and Home.
Dust the hens with a good lice pow
der, and II any of your chicks seem
droopy, look for head lice. A few
drops of oil and lard Is good cure,
Keep pure, fresh water constantly be-
fore them and provide place to get
under which protects them from the
hot sun. Clean the drinking vessels
every morning. Some may say this is
too much bother, but II you want to
clean up good profit, you must not
be afraid to soil 50-cent pair of over,
alls.
Do not overfeed. l feed the baby
chicks from four to six times a day
The first feed is not sooner than SO
hours after hatching. and have
waited four days before feeding. First
feed consists of clean grit and stale
bread soaked In milk II this cannot
be had l feed good prepared chlch
feed.

DRINKING FOUNTAINS.
The Kind Which Are Best for the
Little Chicks.


About the best drinking fountains
are those that are especially made for
that purpose and are for sale on the
market. But a homemade fountain
will do as well, though 1t perhaps will
cost about as much In the end. The
principle used in the construction OF
the purchased fountain can be used
In making a homemade fountain.
The main principle involved Is the
one that prevents water from running
out Of Jug that is inverted In a pan
except while the orifice of the jug is
exposed to the air AS soon as the
water runs out enough so that the
surface of the water rises above the
orifice the water stops running. AS
the chicks drink the water in the pan
the surface of the water is lowered
enough to let out just little more
of the water In the Jug In this way
It is possible to fill large jug, barrel,
hogshead, or any other air-tight vessel
with water and have It supply itself
to the fowls automatically.
The principle is one that has been
long used and is capable of extensive
elaboration. However, there are many
people on farms that have never
availed themselves of this con-
venience. but day by day carry water
to the various broods of chicks as well
as to the mature fowls. In the case
of broods of chicks 1t is very con-
venient to avert water bottles In
small dishes and thus supply pure
water for several days at a time.
