Poultry Notes.

Look to the comfort of the
fowls.
Never feed whole corn except
at evening.
Direct sunlight is a great nat
ural disinfectant.
Don't neglect your chicks and
fowls in hot weather.
Hot. close weather brings lots
of lice to the dirty pen.
1t is a well-known fact that
all hens are not good layers.
The hot sultry weather is try

Don't crowd sleeping quarters.
Keep fronts of houses open.
Hens and pullets do not thrive
on the same kind of feed.
Heat prostration is common in
yards where there is no shade.
Keep things clean. Use lice
powder, lice paint and disinfect-
ants freely.

Overwhelming.

Woodrow Wilson is a brilliant
and convincing political speaker,
but never did a candidate for
President have less need to rely
on the arts of oratory.
No speeches made by Gov.
Wilson in his own behalf could
possibly be so strong as the
speeches that Col. Roosevelt is
making for him. No argument
advanced by Gov. Wilson in ia
vor of his own election could be
so strong as the record of the
Taft administration in his behalf.
Here is candidate for Pres
ident who has nothing to fear
and nothing to explain. No
Congressional investigation can
cause him a moment of anxiety.
He is not called upon to appear
before any committee that may
be inquiring into the use of cor
rupt corporation money in poi
itics.
So far as he is concerned all
the trusts in the country can
open their books and make pub
lie their contributions to cam
paign funds. No standard oil
revelations, no Hartman revela-
tions, no Beef Trust revelations,
no Penrose threats and no Hearst
threats disturb the even tenor of
his way. No Cortelyous and no
Loebs are required to subsbanti-
ate his statements. No bosses
stole his nomination for him and
no Wall street plutocrats are
financing his candidacy. He
owes favorS neither to the Muir
ray Cranes and the Barneses and
the brother Charlie nor to the
Perkinses and the Garys. No
body suspects him of any ALI
ance with crooked political ma
chimes or with crooked corpora
tons. No partnerships with
privilege are lettering by his
door. His is the one untainted
candidacy-the one candidacy
that measures up to the truest
political ideals of the Republic.
There are two overwhelming
reasons in support of Woodrow
Wilson's election to the office of
President of the United States.
One of these reasons is Theodore
Roosevelt. The other is William
H. Taft. New York World.

Many of the rural schools are
deficient in water supply. In
some cases the water must be
brought from long distance in
where it is more convenient the
water is unfit for human con-
sumption.
The laboratories of the Bureau
of engineering of the State Board
of Health stand ready at all times
to make sanitary analyses of
water that may be sent in for
that purpose. The laboratories
would like to receive DIS many
samples of public school water
supplies as they can get. The
State Board of Health in a recent
bulletin expressed the belief that
there was urgent need of an ex-
animation of these supplies and
solicited the interest and the
services of physicians in securing
samples from public school wells
Containers will be supplied from
the laboratories at Bowling Green
wherein specimens of the water
may be sent for analysis.
At the present time when the
country schools are reuminQ
operations this is a matter of no
small Importance. School pupils
should have pure and wholesome
water in abundant quantity and
everyssschoolhouse should be we'll
supplied with water of that sort.
Where there is doubt of the
purity of the supply the school
authorities should promptly avail
themselves of services of the
State Board of Health.
Trustees and teachers not in
frequently are neglectful of their
duties on this score and no doubt
there are hundreds of school
houses in Kentucky which are
deficient in supply or which are
using water that is dubious purity
In such a situation local health
officials, physicians or school
patrons should take tho initiative
and see that any defects or dan
gers are remedied. Courier

1t is doubtful if there Is half a dozen

has been given. Oh the graduates
from the schools most of them are
following some line OF business, or
filling clerk ships, where such tram
ing will never be OF use. \ few OF
the girls have taken out teachers Ger

out of this school with a trade or
start for it in sight. Greek don't
saw lumber. and Latin don't plan
buildings or draft plan for a bridge
or bring out the boys future along
lines of trade.
There is no reason why boy

sire and ambition can be fitted for
classic work. Genius in such lines
can't be downed
There is small chance for boys TO
learn a trade in this section and a
course in training would be a start
in many instances that would put the
youth on the right track.

BEET PULP
To FARMS
Sugar Factory Finds a
Ready Market

All beet pulp to be produced by the
Nevada Sugar Company in the 1912
and 1913 campaigns, amounting prob
ably to 10000 tons this year and dou-
bic the amount next year, will be
sold by the company officials within
the next few days. This commodity
is in reality refuse from the sugar
making process, which follows the
extraction OF the juices valuable for
sugar making, but it is becoming to
be more and more a recognized sta
pie for stock feeding. In Colorado.
California and other beet producing
states, stOckmen, realizing the value
OF the pulp for the feeding OF their
herds. make an effort to acquire
rights to the pulp.
And Judging from late develop
ments in Fallon. the same scramble
will occur here for the pulp that will
result from the fall campaign of the
Fallon factory. Ten thousand tons
is sufficient to fatten a great many
cattle and the present demand war
rants the prediction that when the
sale is negotiated, which will happen
shortly, the price received by the fac
tory will be around Is cents per ton.
