By A. G. PHILLIPS, Kansas.)
To insure the best success in this
work, the poultryman must first have
fixed in his mind the line he wishes
to follow and then bend every effort
to carry it out. If he wishes to breed
hens for eggs, the first thing he must
do is to select his stock with that OBJ
ject in view.
A farmer who feeds steers for beef
production picks out individuals which
conform closest to the type of animal
which he considers would make the
best feeder. This type is entirely diff
ferent from the one dairyman would
select for his dairy herd. The man
who selects horse to use on heavy
drag wagon hunts for one which he
thinks can best do that work, while
the man selecting race horse would
pick one of an entirely different con-
formation.
Thus, in intelligent selection of our
live stock the purpose for which it is
to be used is first determined. In ap-
plying this principle in the poultry
business, there are several things
which should be considered in select
ing hens for layers.
The first thing to notice concerning
the shape is, as to whether or not the
hen is rangy or becky. A becky hen
indicates a meat producer, while the
more rangy one indicates the produc-
ton OF eggs. Since the development
of the egg, to a large extent, takes
place in the region of the body below
the broad part of the back, that part
of the body should be broader than
the fore part. This gives to the body
a v-shaped appearance as viewed
from the top, the small part OF the
v lying toward the front. When a
hen is in heavy laying condition, her
abdomen is lower than the breast line.
This gives the body the appearance
of being V-shaped as viewed from
the side along the top and bottom
lines, with the small part of the V
toward the front. This enlargement
of the body in the abdominal region

Good Profit in Begging.
The streets of London never fail to
attract the professional beggar and
never disappoint him. The Mendicity
society tells us that beggar can
earn more than the wages Of the aver
age working man, and that "it is prob
ably no exaggeration to say that well
over 100000 ($50O,000) is given away
haphazard to beggars in the streets Of
London every year.
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1912-04-05

makes the back appear somewhat
narrower, giving the body V-shaped
appearance from the back downward
on the sides as viewed from the rear.
Thus, body V-shaped in three di.
rections indicates large productive
powers.
A good layer is longer in body, neck
and legs than meat-producing hen

and therefore become disqualified as
show birds. When hens are melting
they lose all their color in face and
comb and the size of their combs be
come very small, but as soon as laying
commences, the combs enlarge and
the color returns. Many instances
have been noted with Leghorns and
Minorcas which indicate that the
birds with the largest and reddesi
combs are in heavy-laying condition
A laying hen works and hunts<foi

roost and the last to go to roost.
Some claim the pelvic bone test to
be final and conclusive. Immediately
below the tail at the end OF side
pieces of the back are two somewhat
bony protuberances. These are called
the pelvic or "lay" bones, and are
just above the vent through which
the eggs must pass. When an egg
is laid, these bones must be forced
apart to allow its free passage. When
these bones are soft and pliable, and
spread sufficient to allow three fingers
to be placed between them. it Is an
indication that the hen is laying. Il
they are hard and bony, and close
together, the hen would not be con
sidered as laying at that time.

First battle the face very thoroughly

quickly, using the tapping movement
that is to say, slap your face in very
gentle, quick taps. Rub the cream all
off with a damp cloth, dry the face and
apply a mixture made of equal parts
white of egg and cologne spirits. Put
it on the face quite thick and let it
remain on for half an hour; then wash
off with warm water, massage again
quickly and finish off with a bath of
very cold water.
Many lines are formed in the face
simply because it is allowed to droop:
that is because the spirit behind it is
not buOyant, brave and cheerful. And
many wrinkles can never be taken out

individual resolves that life is not as

. 9 The Manicure Lady . o
BY William F. Kirk

nDHE fellow that just went out

Manicure Lady. Did you no.
tice him. George"
Not particularly" said the Head
Barber, except that he was big and
husky enough to look like a white hope.
Why?"
u want to tell you about that chap"
said the Manicure Lady. He is the
first real gentleman that has been in
here this week, and about the third or
fourth gentleman l have met since
goodness knows when.
Il wish there was more men like him
in the world, George. He told me all
about himself in a quiet sort of way
when he sat down. I seen from the
bashful way he acted that he wasn't
used TO having his nails did. 1t seems
he is a iron worker, and has saved up
thousand dollars. He is going to be
married today. and he told me that he
had never had his hands fixed up by
anybody except himself and some soap
and hot water. He said that the girl
he is going to marry has the most soft
and beautiful white hands he ever saw,
and he explained to me the best he
could that he wanted to have his hands
look at least half way good when the
preacher was doing his duty.
q guess I am a good deal of demo-
crat, George, but l certainly liked the
way that man sat there. with his big
strong paws full of little scars from
the kind of work he did. | have held
lot of hands since | broke into this
profession. and the most of them
weren't kind of hands l would like to
hold counting on sofa. This chaps
hands could have broken mine in two
with a single twist, but he was as
gentle as a kid, and he never said
word to me that he wouldn't have said
to his sister If there was more men
like that getting their nails did. the
manicure girls would be more happy"
Did he tip you?" asked the cynical
Head Barber.
He certainly did, George" said the
Manicure Lady, and he was a perfect
dear, too, the way he went about it.
When I was all through he asked me
how much, and | told him 80 cents, and
he gave me a dollar note. Then he
