Cleanliness.
The advice commonly given in p0ul-
try papers concerning cleanliness i'll
hicts upon the poultry keeper more
labor than need be- 1t is all right for
the fancier, who sells his birds for
high prices and whose profits depend
largely upon the impression his plant
makes upon the visitor, to sweep the
floors of his chicken house with as
much care as the housewife does her
parlOr. But the farmer and the utili-
ty poultry keeper cannot afford to in
crease their labor unnecessarily, for
the labor bill at best is the heaviest
item in poultry keeping.
There is a general notion prevalent
that filth causes disease. This, strictly
speaking, is not correct and lack Of
cleanliness does not breed disease, al
though contagious diseases can be
checked by a disinfectant, which, Of
course, involves reasonable cleanli-
ness. Poultry if given dry whole
grain will have no opportunity to get
eth in their food. and if the house is
dry, so that no fumes of ammonia
are given OF. there is no need of re-
moving the drOppings more than once
q month In winter time they can be
allowed to accumulate for even longer
periods.
In mild climates where birds are on
free range commercial pOultrymen

The Valley City Times-Recori says
the republican congressional commit
tee is to flood" the state with speak
ers in behalf of stalwart candidates
for congress-, before the primaries.
We had not heard this interesting
fact. 1t was our impression that the
republican congressional committee
would work for the election of re-
publican candidates after they were
regularly nominated, but that they
would keep their hands off of fac
tional or personal struggles for NOM
nation. We still believe this to be
the case, and would like the source
and the nature of the T. RS informa-
ton on the subject. Has the con-
gressional committee made any pub
lie statement on this subject, and if
so, when and where? Campaigning
for the election of republican nomi-
nees for congress is a matter entire
ly different from campaigning in q
faotional squabble, with the result
that the republican party in. this or
any state shall be further split apart.

furnishing the world with food, the
United States is pre-eminent and the
fact should not be obscured. But 1t
is not immune from heavy advances
in the cost of food, and the pinch at
present has naturally become sub
ject of general discussion. The pop
ulation Of the country is increasing.
Immigrants pour in by the hundred
thousand. Food is dear abroad and
export prices have increased cores
pondingly. In examining this sub
ject it is essential not to be misled
by any improved theory. The for
eign commissions appointed to inves-
tigate have collected great mass
of figures, but it is doubtful If they
have made much Roadway in arriving
at causes. Many think the chief fac
tor in the case is the increase in the
worlds output of gold from $780,
100000 in 1895 to $457 ;O0O, 900 in
1909. A billion and quarter of
fresh gold in three years may be at.
fecting the worlds measure of
values powerfully. Unquestionably,
the reasons for the advance in the.
cost of food are deeper than tariffs
or combinations of capital.
