A flock of hens is capable of saving
certain portions of crops that cannot
be sold to advantage as immature,
small potatoes, etc. There is always
on a farm, a lot of valuable refuse
which cannot be saved, except by the
use of poultry. 1t is true tnat a pig
is also serviceable In that respect, but
the heas give more immediate re-
turns, supplying eggs daily and
bringing ia cash when there are no
returns from other sources. In keep'
ing a flock of fowls, the object should
be to feed nothlng to them that can
be sent to market, as long as there Is
omething unstable that will answer
the purpose. Economy adds to the
profit, and one of the chief purposes
in keeping a flock is to utilize the
waste products.

Skilled Labor on the Farm.

Skilled Labor on the Farm.
The shortage of farm help con
tinues. Thousands OF boys ant
girls are attending our agriculture
colleges and there qualifying them
selves as experts In agriculture
horticulture, stock bree ding anc
dairying, but they do not help t'
solve the problem. Indssd they
emily aggravate it as each one who
has finished this course becomes, n
short time, proprietor who is
seeking for more hslp. They study
the business and scientific sides OF
farming in order that they may
succeed In their chosen profession
under modern conditions. Their
ability and training makes OF them
self confident busiI sss men who can
and do succeed in independent
work. If financial circumstances
prevent their engaging in business
IN their owA account they are
available as experts or supefIntend-
eats or partners and not as hired
men, Their real worth Is much too
great 10 admit of their serving as
mere employees for any considerable
time and the general problem Is not
solved through their class.
The agricultural field is the largest
in the world and the demand fer
farm products greater than they
have ever been. There are yet
millions of acres that have never
been touched by the pillow and the
real capacity of the sell under
cultivation has hardly been touched.
With the rapid increase of popula-
ton the demands upon the food
supply are already pressing and the
cry of the farmer is for mere help.
The field Of endeaver that is
afforded in agriculture is a rich one.
Richer than that afforded in most of
the other professions and its pos
slbilities are almost linitless. The
young msn and young women who
are preparing themselves In agrieul
ture and domestic economy will
never have cause to regret their
choice but they will net be available
in solving the help problem on the
farm. The agricultural colleges are
dsing a greater work for mankind
In this sphere than was ever done
and they will be called upon for
more In the future but their students
will not and should net become
hired meA or women as permanent
vocation. They are needed as
captains aad not as priVatss.
With the increasing price of farm
products and the continued scarcity
Of farm help coupled with the very
general awakening Of the city
population to the advantages of
farm life there may come a change
in compensation that will help to
sslve this problem but it can never
De more than help.
The real solution seems TO lie in

OLe of the reasons for the success
of the Philo system is that its follow
ers bury the food Of the chickens =

Inches Ia the ground aud the hens are
obliged to scratch for IL before their
hunger is appeased. Some of the
grains sprout before the chickens find
all Of them, which makes IL all the
better for them as 1t provides green
food Ia thJ best form possible. This
exercise also keeps fowls Out Of
mischief, such as egg and feather
eating, which they are liable to get
into when confined to small>quarters.
The exercise also prevents them from
becoming too fat to lay. Exercise is
a great essential TO the health of the
fowls and scratching and picking
should be encouraged by furnishing
bullock's head or entrails for them to
tear at as a regular occupation. 1t is
the idle hen, like the idle man, that
gets into mischief. Keep them busy
and you keep them straight and right.

PEOPLE OF THE DAY
"A Factor In the Meat Industry.

In these days of inflated meat prices
Louis F. Swift of Chicago, head of
Swift & Co., is a figure of great i'm
portance in this country's affairs. He
has been the controlling influence in
the big packing company since 1899
and its president since 1908, when his
father. founder Of the business, died.
It is due largely to his wonderful
business tact that the firm has achiev-
ed its great success in the commercial
world. He is forty-nine years old and
one Of Chicago's foremost citizens. His
efforts have been mainly directed to
ward improving the city artistically
and commercially.
The great business of which Mr..
Swift is the head was built up by Gus
tavus F. Swift, his father, who started
