PANAMA CANAL
BONDS NEEDED

WASHINGTON, December 1O.-To
avert a threatened deficit in the treas
ury, the government is contemplating
the issuance of more Panama Canal
construction bonds.
Yesterday a conference was held by
Secretary of the Treasury McVeagh
with Senator Aldrich in regard to the
matter and it is reported that the Sec
rotary and the financier of the senate
have agreed that bond issue is the
only way out of the deficit prospect the
treasury faces.
The drain on the working balance of
the treasury of the Panama drafts has
been heavy and the amuont of money
on hand may soon be exhausted.

SIGHT TO GLADDEN.
TOURIST ELKS

Honolulu harbor on the evening of
February 81 and % will reveal spec
tacle calculated to gladden. the eyes of
tourists as well as delighting thou
sands of honolulans, for there will be
set on the waterfront a sort of fairy
palace, glowing with electrics like
thousand stars, mirrored in the wa
tiers of the bay and winking welcome
to all to come and revel at the Elks'
carnival in the big Alakea wharf shed.
No better place could have been Sc
cured unless it had been built for
the purpose and the construction Of
the large shipping shed, with its
broad and long galleries and immense
floor space, fits the plans of the Elks
to nicely. Hundreds may dance in
the galleries or pause, while partaking
of refreshments, to look down upon
the numerous attractions in the way
of entertainment which will be spread
in many booths.
There will be the famous Apologize
Court, but better even than before;
there will be Photographic gallery; a
vaudeville show; a voting contest for
the sending of a lady to San Francisco
and a score or so of special features
now in preparation and guaranteed to
keep things stirring and to delight the
funloving public.
| The Elks made big success Of last
February's carnival, but next years
efforts are on a larger scale and will
be more splendid and gratifying in
proportion.

IMPORTANCE OF GOOD FEED
Well Established Fact That 1t Is Eas.
Ter to Hatch Chickens Than
to Raise Them.

It is a well-known fact that 1t is
easier to hatch chickens than to raise
them. The following method has given
satisfactory results on a. successful
poultry ranch:
For the first six days commercial
chick feed is used. consisting of
cracked grains, such as wheat, oats.
corn, millet seed, weed seed, grit, egg
shells, and meat scraps. Part of the
feed is placed in shallow saucers and
the remainder scattered among the
chaff. It is important that the young
birds should be active, so scratching
for food is good exercise. Clean water
is kept before them at all times.
When the chicks are let into the out
door runs, which is about the sixth
day, if the weather is favorable, skim
milk is added to the ration. This is
fed once day, in the morning, and is
placed in drinking fountains in the
outside runways. The quantity of
milk fed is determined by what will
be cleaned up within short time. for

Sanitation of Poultry Quarters.

At no other time Of the year than
now is it so important to look after
the good sanitation of all the pouL

er, lice and mites begin to increase In
numbers. Change nesting material at
least once a week and disinfect nests
and roosts frequently with kerosene or
a mixture of lime wash and carbolic
acid. There are now some cheap and
good poultry sprays on the market
prepared ready for use.

Self-Feeder for Chicks.

1t Is not allowed to stand in the foun-
tains all day. Meanwhile the drinking
fountains in the brooders are kept sup.
piled with water, and can be removed
to the outside runways when desired.
At this period one Or even two OF
the three daily feeds of the commercial
chick feed may be replaced by John
ny cake" When the chicks are about
three weeks old the commercial feed
is gradually replaced by mixture con-
sisting of one-balf of whole wheat, one.
fourth of cracked corn, and one-fourth
of steel cut oats. This is thrown into
the inside runways, mornings and
evenings, in a quantity little Less
than the chicks will eat. In the mid
die of the day fifty chicks receive in
place of the grain mixture piece OF
homemade bread, called Johnny
CAKE about six inches square and
two inches thick. This is made of one
part oatmeal, two parts corn meal, a
little whole wheat flour, pinch of
salt and infertile eggs from the incu-
bator, the whole being mixed with
eggs are used in johnny cake eight
cen inches square and two inches
thick. The rule is to feed half to two
thirds of what the chicks will eat of
this cake, and never feed anything in
such quantity that portions will be
left to be trampled on after the chicks
have lost interest in it.
In addition to the mixed grains and
cake, small quantity of some succu
lent material is thrown into the run.
ways. For this purpose grass, carrots,
kale, lettuce and the like are used.
Kale is much relished, and lettuce Is
one Of the best feeds of this kind. The
quantity of this material fed may be
judged from the statement that one
apple or one loaf of kale is given to
fifty chicks.
Chickens will not scratch when they
are overfed nor when there is no feed
in the litter. The idea is to keep them
scratching.
The changes in rations are made
gradually. Disorders are easily caused
by sudden and radical changes of
feed. During this period finely chopped
meat is fed sparingly. The
chicks get a good many angleworms
from the freshly spaded soil in the
outside runs.
Scrupulous cleanliness is observed
about the brooders and runways. Ev-
erything is carefully disinfected by
the free use of disinfectants before
the chicks are placed in their quar-
ters. This prevents trouble with ver-
min and sickness. Any chicks that do
not show growth and activity from
day to day are Immediately removed,
thus insuring the strength and vigor
of the flock.
The self-feeder shown in the illus
tration is a useful article for the poul.
try raiser. It is made out of a tin
pail, new or old, having lid to it. A
hole is cut three inches long and the
tin pressed back, as shown. This will
allow the feed to run down as fast aa
the chicks eat it.

RF the wool clip all over the UnlCeo
States should be reduced for the
year 1910, as it has been in Ari-
IONA, where the clipping is done
earlier than in other sections OF
the country, the market will be high.
Arizona had the earliest clip in it's
history this year The clip is usual
ly at its height in Salt River valley
and in other sections of the territory
about the middle of February, where
as this year the sheep were all shorn
and on their way back to the hills on
February IL. The flocks wintered
we'll, but owing to the cold weather
the grass on the ranges continued
dry, and as result the quality of the
wool was improved, while the output
was curtailed. So pronounced was
this shortage in the clip that instead
of the influx of several hundred thou
sand Of sheep into the clipping CEN
tiers of the Salt River valley, the num-
bers could be counted by the thou
sands.
The clipping began this year about
the tenth of January, and by the mid
die of February was finished at Cave
Creek, Marinette, Beardsley, Hot
Springs Junction, Congress Junction
and Weden. Machines were used at
all these clipping centers with the ex.
ception of Weden and Congress juno.
ton, where the shearing was done by
hand. Shearing in the north was Ia
ter, but even there far ahead of the
usual season Conditions were about
the same in Mohave county.
In former years 1t was customary
for the sheep men to drive their
flocks from Mohave county to the Salt
River valley for the Landing and
shearing season, using the forest
ranges running north and south for
forage along the route both north and
south. But the new forest regulations
now prohibit this use of the govern
ment reserves; the sheep men have
been unable to get their f1ocks through
especially through the Verde valley,
so that the movement south was aban-
doned this season.
In addition to the restrictions placed
upon the forest reserves, the valleys
that in former years were green, ow-
ing to the cold, dry weather and the
consequent lack of rains, this year
were not green enough to support the
moving flocks. The result of this is
that those flocks which were moved
south. for lack of grazing in the CEN
trail Arizona valleys, had to hasten
back north, where the lambing proved
disastrous, not only to the lambkins
but to the ewes as we'll For this
reason 70 per cent. of the sheep shorn
in Arizona for 1910 had the clipping
done in Yavapai county, midway be-
tween the valley and northern ranges,
this being the lowest altitude obtain
able where there was the combina-
ton of clipping facilities, nearby ship
ping points and fair ranges BY the
same token it is now predicted that
the lamb crop for the year will not
exceed 40 per cent of what 1t should
be. or would be under more favorable
conditions.
The largest shearing point in Yapavai
county this year was at Cordes, where

Dust the Setting Hen.

This is the season when hens want
to set. Before giving her eggs, dust
the old hen thoroughly with insect
powder. If this is repeated once a
week while she is incubating it will
be all the better, and she should have
access to a dust heap besides. The
fewer the lice and mites the more and
healthier the hicks will be.
