THE POT AND THE KETTLE

A clean political campaign, free
from personal abuse, vituperation,
harsh language and every conceivable
kind of charge against candidates for
office, would be almost an impossi-
b1l1ty. 1t does not matter where poll
tics exists, in State, county, munich
patty or borough, it is always the
same. The pot is always calling the
kettle black. Sometimes it is easy to
understand the why's of politics, but
not always. The same motives do not
actuate all men who enter the political
arena. Some are guided by purely
patriotic motives, others from selfish
ends. Still others get into the fray
from the exalted egoism of personal
vanity. AS politicians these last are
generally OF no value to the com
munlty, for the reason that they lack
political acumen, going ahead blum
der1ngly and always messing things so
that nine times out of ten they are
defeated and cause trouble for others
who have sided with them
In politics 1t never pays to hout the
enemy. The shrewdest politician. the
smartest generals of the time, are
those who fulfil the real scope of the
profession. This means all. that can
encompass success. 1t means the art
OF not letting the enemy know your
hand. If you have anything up your
sleeve, don't let it bulge Watch the
real politician. He never squeals. He
never lets abuse for the opposition be
shown. He plays the stalking game.
He goes out and does something for
his constituents that they like. He
creates the minimum Of fo1Ca i,,,orae
S1Ons
Antagonism, abuse, blatant talk,
calling names, seldom win in the end.
Talk sweet. The successful man in
politics never carries a crouch. Watch
him. Point your finger at him. He
wears a smile, not a cheap frown of
contempt. Make joke of the enemy
but never abuse him. You'll lose if
you do: The crouch never triumphed
over the grin, And the long face
slcklies in a contest with the smile.
Some of the most cuccessful, politi-
clans are seldom ever seen.

must not allow them to follow the

they will lose their economic value.
A variety of shapes in flock is
abominable and their product will be
widely variable. In mating for utility
purposes always choose birds that
conform TO the standard shape. Color
and arbitrary artificial points are
nOn-essential so far as the production
Of eggs and meat are concerned, but
shape Is absolutely necessary In order
to have uniformity in the product.

RHODE ISLAND RED THE UTILITY
FOWL.

The Rhode Island Red was born a
utilNy fowl. The breed was created
with no Intention of producing a dis
tinct breed of type, writes l.. E. Key
ser in the Poultry Advocate. The
place or origin was along the shores
of the NarragansetE bay in the neigh
borhoOd of the towns of Little Comp
ton, R. l., and Westport, Mass. It
was the belief of the farmers that a
Ted rooster was the most vigorous
and such bird was used each season
In the Rhode Island Red, Asiatic
blood largely predOminates, though
Butt and Brown Leghorn males were
used to some extent. The Influence
Of the Malay is seen to this day al
though it is more than sixty years
since the foundation of this breed was
laid by the introduction, by sea cap
tains, of Red COchins (now our Part
ridge Cochins) and Malays. These
were crossed ON the common fowls
Of the county, which at that period
would appear to have been of very
ordinary character, and give a type
of fowl which especially suited the
conditions prevailing. Later on cross
eS were made with Brown and Buff
LeghoTns, Wyandottes and Plymouth
Rocks.
This breed, not having any unifor-
NIFTY, was exhibited and given the
name Rhode Island Reds at an exhf
bftiOn Of the South Massachusetts
Poultry Association in 1879 and 1880.
In the winter of 1892 they were ex-
hibited at Philadelphia under the
name Of Golden Butts. At this time
they had single, rose and pea combs.
The single combed birds entered into
the composition Of Butt Plymouth
Rocks and the rose combed birds in
70 Butt WyandoStes. In 1898 a club
was formed Tor the breed and IN 1901
a standardlwas adOptedlby the club.

Rhode Island Red was not deti6Hsij

and utility breeders had little to
guide them in making selections. To
day the breed stands we'll in the
front rank both as utility and fancy
fowl.
Extreme hardness, the ability to
sand cold and at the same time pro
duce eggs is one of the characteris-
tics of the breed. The chicks make
a good growth and the pullets reach
laying maturity when about six
months old, when Matched in the nat
ural season and are well grown. They
are good 'a1-the-year layers. In fact
they lay nearly all the time they are
not brOody or mOulting, and the eggs
are of good size and of a reddish
brown color. This tint is deeper thar
any produced except by Malays and
Indian Games.
There are two varieties of Rhode
Island Reds now recognized by the
standard single and rose comb. A.
side from comb there is little or no
difference. There should be no diff
ference, but for number of years
there was a tendency in the rose
comb variety to follow the Wyan-

dotte shape, and all birds of this var
lety were not of the same general
character, but this has now been pref
ty well eliminated.
; As sittens and mothers, Rhode Is
land Red hens excel. They are &C
tive, good foragers and will take goot
care of their chicks. For those who
wish to hatch and brood under hens
this breed is very desirable. This
makes them the choice of the small
breeder who does mot care to use
incnbators and breeders and of those
farmers who have not the time to
care for chicks to the extent required
to raise them artificially. Under such
conditions the hens will lay a fair
number of eggs and raise a brood of
chicks or, perhaps, two broods, in a
season.
The shape of the Rhode Island Red
Is good for the production Of meat,
the body being oblong, the keel is
long and canned we'll forward. The
legs are stout, rather heavy in bone,
medium in length and free from fea-
theirs. The beak is reddish horn
