THE MOST PRACTICAL ROOsT


The stepladder roost is out of date.
The chickens all fought for the high
est seat in the synagogue. Results,
strife and bumbie foot.
The sassafras sapling roost, guaran-
teed to prevent lice, has gone into
oblivion with The lightning rod. The
movable rocst is the fad.
Our plan: Make four carpenters
trestles, two of them five feet long
and two and half feet high and the
other four feet long and two feet
high. Cover the high trestles with
boards six feet long, and on this drop
ping floor place your low trestles and
from one to the other place your roost-
ing Stats.
Put these four inch Stats on loose
and on very cold nights move them
close together.
Set up in a corner out of drafts and
place the dusting box near and the
hens will keep the rcosts well busted.
Advantages.-Easily cleaned easily
removed; catches all the manure; can
be removed or set up in three min.
utes; hens can scratch under it; red
mites avoid it. Try it and be con.
vinced.-Weekly Witness.

RETURN OF PROSPERITY

st. Louis Employers Take Back IT,
500 M:n-Times Declared Much
Betser-orders Sent Out For $5,-
100000 Worth of Goods-Raria
Recovery Is Indicated.
St. Louis, special.-In the last
week Of May the National Prosperity
Association carried on canvass
among employers to have June ! re-
cognized as "employment day. OF
Unemployment day." by the resto-
ration of employees who were laid off
because of the recent business de-
preston. Favorable answers have
been received from several hundred
employers, and it is estimated that
1880 names have been added TO pay
rolls in st. Louis and vicinity. A
number of employers increased their
working forces without waiting for
employment day"
Information gathered by officers OF
the National Prosperity Association,
it is ann,,.nced, iustifes the estimate
that orders for $5,0O0,O00 worth of
goods have been sent from St. Louis
houses to manufacturers scattered
throughout the country in the last
two weeks.
z. C Simmons, chairman of the e1-
ecutive committee, said that his firm
mailed orders to reach manufacturers
June l, aggregating $1,OOO,OO0. With
each order went brief letter say
ing:
number aggregating more than ST.
100000 which we are sending out to
reach manufacturers on June l. This
is the date that has been suggested
by the National Prosperity Associa-
ton as Unemployment day. and
these orders are a contribution from
us to give manufacturers basis for
the unemployment of as many work
ingmen as possible.
The association has completed an
inquiry into business conditionss in
May. Representatives of St. Louis
houses were called on for statements
comparing May business with that OF
April and with May, 1907, and 1906
The answers aboundcd in explicit In
formation of an encouraging charac-
ter, showing rapid recovery in COM
mercial circles which in April seem
ed impossible.
James E. Smith, president of the
Business Mems League, said that the
prosperity movement was not contin-
ed to St. Louis alone, as thousands
of letters had been received showing
that similar work is going on IN
many commercial centers throughout
the country.
