given for the latter.
The boys are taking hold Of this
movement with a boost" and great
results are to come from 1t no doubt.
says Superintendent K. G. Pruitt Of

FEATHERS AND EeesHELLs.

Over thirty tons of rotten eggs have
been seized in New York since April.
Ten tons of these were trailed from
Atchison, Kan. to Brooklyn. N. Y, by
United States health inspectors. New
York is just getting awake to this aw-
full business, and when the country in
general awakes to this awful general
swindle there will be law passed
that it's as great a crime to sell man
poisoned food to get his money as 1t
is TO poison his food to get his estate.
The York Pa.) Dispatch tells of a
child that placed an ostrich egg In her
little bantam's nest with this written
request: something like this. please.

During farmers week at State Col
lege, Pa, a regular poultry show Is
held. Live fowls are not only exhibit
ed, but dressed poultry and eggs are
also shown and demonstrations given
In killing, picking and packing poultry
for market.
The rotten egg dealers of Pennsylva-
MIA declare that under the act Of 1909
they are being oppressed. Some have
even been sent to Jail for selling A
No. rots. They have established a
lobby at Harrisburg and are trying to
prove the law unconstitutional.

Pennsylvania poultry population
increased 100000 in 1910, and its
fowl population is now estimated at
100000. This is an excellent show
ing, especially when you consider the
fact that Pennsylvania preachers hold
the worlds record for making chanti-
cleer disappear.
On Nov. Fl DR.. Wiley, the govern
ments food expert, sent out the fol-
lowing proclamation: Eat thy I'LL on

This country has over 100000
farms. and last October there were
only 6,500,O00 turkeys maturing on all
this territory. Six hundred and fifty
thousand Of these were raised in Tex

DEPENDABLE CHICK FEED.

"Can hatch 'em, but can't raise EN-"
Is the explanation given by many for
poor success with chicks. "All could
do. they just died Off like fies," said
a discouraged friend. An investiga-
ton Of conditions showed two reasons
for his failure-he fed too much. and
the chick feed he used was stale and
adulterated.
Our advice to you is feed little. but
often.
Analyze carefully that commercial
chick feed. and if it does not come
up to the line in quality and price
then make your own mixture by the
following formula:
