The movement to prolong human
life was the topic discussed by the
various speakers at the morning SEES
sion today of the Association of Life
Insurance Presidents
The report of the life extension COM
mittee of the association was pre-
scented by George F. Ide, chairman or
til" committee. The work of the fed
eral government in the matter OF
health conservation was discussed by
DR.. Walter Wyman, surgeon general
of the public health and marine hos
ptal service. DR.. Rossnau of Harvard
Medical College told the life insur-
ance presidents that they could do
much in campaign OF education to
teach the people the value of prevent
i've medicine and could help to foster
useful legislation of a public health
character.
DR.. f. w. Dwight of Boston declared
that the vast mine of information which
has been collected by life insurance COM
panies could be used to great advantage
in the fight to promote public health.
Telling the insurance executives that
they represented the most important in
terests of trusts in the world, President
Taft speaking during the afternoon ses-
sion referred to the investigation of life
insurance as an retrospective investiga-
ton into the business of the country
1T did show instances which aroused
the business community to the need of
a house cleaning said President Taft.
Il have no doubt you are glad of that
examination and the result. which was
the general honesty and integrity of
American business men.
Il have no doubt that the result may
have been legislation that was somewhat
extreme. The ublic sometimes wants
things done with a thump, but in the end

In District Of Columbia
On Insurance Matters
Would Show People What The
Whole Country Really Needs
Is Suggestion Of President Taft
To Insurance Men.

Washington, Jan. 20-President Taft
today. in addressing the annual meet
ing of the Association of Life Insur-
ance Presidents, held out no hope for
the enactment of a federal law to gov
ern the companies and advised the ex-
ecutive officers to bend their efforts
toward uniform legislation in the
states.
"You are here to secure uniformity
in insurance legislation throughout the
country said the President You are
very sorry that the United States may
not find in the Constitution the right
to render uniform the insurance bust
ness throughout this country Certain
y the supreme court seems to have set
tied the question. And your only re-
course, therefore, is to SECURE common
action by the states that the result
will be similar to a single federal act
controlling the business.
"rhe only function that the United
States can perform is to pass a model
law in the District of Columbia and
there show to the world what Congress,
aided possibly by a scientific commits
sion, shall believe to be the best kind
VI III IIlSuIdlCe law. SIldll UC very
glad, insofar as any power lies in me.
to encourage such action.
Il have been on the bench and at
the lar and 1 have ruled that men
must read their policies to know what
they contain in order to have an I'M
derstanding of what the contract is
and ] am conscious of never having
read any of the policies which 1 have
taken out, because l trusted the man
who explained it to me. But Congress
by model law can effect very great
purpose and if there is anything l
can legitimately do to contribute to
Your object 1 shall be very glad to
do it,"
In the Presidents audience We're
dozen or more governors of states and
nearly 200 leaders of the life insurance
business in the United States. The as
ISOLATION today discussed plans for
conservation of the public health and
measures which may be taken in the
hope of frightening the span of life.
Dr. Walter Wyman, surgeon-general
of the United States public health and
marine hospital service; DR.. M. j.
Rosenau, of the Harvard Medical Col
lage and Others spoke on the subject.

The Poultry Yard.

Do you keep chickens, or do they
keep you?
Good warm wheat makes a nice
breakfast for the biddies.
Skim-milk Is thin looking stuff
but it may be put to good use in
the poultry yard.
A little more clean litter on the
floors. Keep the fowls hard at work
1T Is the price Of health.
In poultry raising the breed is i'm
portant, but the man or woman be-
hind the breed is more so.
Chickens that lay around almost
anywhere sometimes are merely emu
Iating their betters.
The man who keeps hens Is not
so much of philosopher as the man
who has the hens keep him.
For Matching purposes take the
eggs from the hens that lay best
Build up; never let the standard
down.
A shelf, couple of feet below the

the best of anything that we ever

the best of anything that we ever
tried.
AS a rule, eggs from two-year-old
hens give better satisfaction at this
time OF the year than when from
younger stock, and the chicks are
more vigorous.
The eggs of hens that did heavy
laying during the winter are not so
apt to be as strongly fertilized as
eggs from hens that made but fair
showing.
The last egg laid before a hen goes
to sitting will often be so small that
1t will have no yolk at ALL There is
an old notion that it is bad luck to
bring these small eggs in the house.
A nest that suits the turkey hen
first-rate may be made by turning
a salt barrel on the side. Put straw
in the hollow and nest egg and
cover the barrel over with brush,
If you have it handy.
One of my neighbors says that
there's no money in poultry, and
that the easiest way to get eggs is to
buy them. He says that he keeps
chickens to eat the bugs in his or
chard; pays EN- a cent bug.
Is there a place under some old
building where you can spade up the
earth and give 1t to the hens to work
at? They will dig away hard to find
the worms that may be in it. Nothing
will do them more good.
When hen lays now and then
and not soon again, and you can't
decide whether she hadn't better
quit altogether, I'll tell you what to
do: Why, just ak her to, and neither
in box nor in keg will she ever lay
another egg.
Especially In early matches care
should be taken not to set hen un-
til she is thoroughly broody. 1t does
not take much experience to know
when hen is really broody She
will be very fussy when approached
and hug close to the nest when the
hand is placed under her.
March settings should not contain
more than eleven eggs, for when a
larger number is given the hen can
not sufficiently cover them to i'm
part the necessary warmth. When
too many eggs are placed in the nest
those on the outer edge are not apt
to get the amount of heat required
to develop the germ and bring forth
the chick.
Any system of feeding is expen-
sive II the hens do not lay, and the
greater the number of non-producers
the greater the cost of every egg pro-
duced. Improper feeding or ove.'
! feeding may be the cause Of flock
