Let's try to forget it.
Business Is Warfare.

Business is warfare. Its hard, con-
stant fight to the finish. The moment
a contestant enters the field of com
merce he is challenged by host of
competitors. All his movements are
disputed and opposed 10y those al
ready in possession of the field. He
must fight to live. He must conquer
to succeed. SO it is that man of
business is like d soldier of the regi-
ment. And the well-trained soldier
who delights in the clamor of battle,
the enterprising business man is eager
for the struggle of competition. He
delights To overcome those who OPP
pose him, and he finds genuine pleas
ure in outwitting his rivals. 1t is
this spirit of rivalry that sharpens a
mans interest and spurs on his ener-
gy. And unless man is possessed
of this desire to overcome, to surpass,
to stand first in his line, he can never
hope to carry the day, he will never
succeed in the fight. Profit, which is
the reward of industry and ability in
business, is not the sole object and
consideration that aetuates the really
successful man. The love of gain
cannot inspire him to the highest en-
deavor. There must be something
more enduring to call forth his SUI
preme efforts aud satisfy his ambition.
And that something is the same
spirit that is possessed by men of wal
who go in battle to do or die-who
fight to win and forget all else.-

THE POULTRY YARD

abundantly large for family Of 20
at five or six weeks old, is frightfully
close quarters for them at ten or
twelve weeks old. This crowding
overheats them, and overheating
saps their strength, resulting in
stunted growth and lowered vitality.
The coops are frequently left I'M
cleaned for weeks, too, at the busy
season. Work is crowding and there
are half-dozen calls upon the farm
er's time, and the poor chicks are
left to shift for themselves. Is it
any wonder that vermin flourish, and
that the chicks do not flourish under
such conditions?
The feed is a most important part
of the chicks growth, and yet it is a
part that receives but little consider
alton, from many poultry raisers
There are farms where corn-meal
dough and later on whole corn is
the only feed given. Corn is very
one-sided feed with very little of the
food elements that go to the build
ing Of bone and muscle, and it is
bone and muscle-building feed that
the youngsters want-such as wheat,
hulled oats. cracked peas and soy
beans, or variety of these feeds.

CHICK MORTALITY.

Some of the Things That Cause the
Chicks to Die, and How They Could
Be Prevented.
Messrs. Editors If poultry rails
ers would keep an account of the
number of chicks Matched, and then
take an account of stock October Is.
they would be astonished to find
that SO great a number has disap-
peared. The deaths, here one, and
there another, make tremendous in
roads upon the total of profits and
are heavy tax to pay for Indifferent
care or mishandling.
If every farmer would keep in
mind that every chicken Cor turkey,
or duck or goose) is practically just
SO much cash, he would take better
care of his flocks. and thus avoid
most of the losses. Most of the in
FAINT mortality in chicks can be pre-
vented by scrupulous cleanliness and
proper food. Probably the chief
cause of these chick losses is lice,
and surely lice are preventable. II
the sitting hen has been properly
busted about week apart while sit
ting with some good insect powder,
the chicks will be Matched free from
lice, and by regularly busting the hen
and chicks they may be kept free
from them.
Over-crowding in coops is another
fruitful cause of chick mortality.
Chicken raisers overlook the fact
that the youngsters double in size
very quickly, and coop which was

A CAMPAIGN FOR SUMMER EGGS
How 1t Paid to Clean Out the Poul-
try House and Get Rid OF the Lice.


Messrs. Editors: One time in
June, good many years ago,
went up home on the farm. | was
town-worn and tired-about played
out with office work, and ready to
take hold OF anything on the farm in
the way Of recreation or light work.
The hens interested me. for / was
even them something of chicken
fancier. But noticed that the hens
had a fagged-out, pale-about-the-
head look. and were not bright, Wig
orous. or much given to cackling.
Neither did they lay many eggs. So
/ resolved to take hold of them. and
put them in good shape for the bal
ance of the summer, and to get them
back into good laying trim.
SO, l went down by the garden
and took peep into the old log hen
house, with it's sassafras roosting
perches, and its half-barrel nests.
Things were white in there, but
dusty, and the cobwebs abundant.
noticed the roosts and the nests ap-
peared to have been unused for some
time, and so made inquiry.
"Oh my, Henry. keep out of that
old hen house. It's full of mites:
the hens haven't stayed in there a
night, nor laid in there for over a
month" That is what they told me.
But 1t was not satisfactory, and so I
stripped for action. / took off all
the law allowed, and waded into that
hen house to clean it out, and to
clean up the mites. It was a hot
and dirty job. for about the first
thing ] had was bonfire of the old
nesting material and the half bar
rels. Then ] had a sweeping down
and out, soaking with kerosene
oil, and later whitewashing of all
the interior parts OF 1t. New roosts
were put in, and new nest boxes and
nest material. Then / let it rest a
day. The next evening | tolled the
hens in there with corn, and locked
them in. | kept them in there all
the next day and let them out the
second morning. That evening |

eggs from which they raised a nice
bunch OF latc-hatched pullets. and
had the pleasing experience of eat
ing about an equal number of little
BOOSTERS that autumn and fall. And.
they declared that the hens were
never known to lay SO many eggs
before, SO late in the summer.
The moral OF this is TO clean up.

tend the laying and Matching sea-
