Fowls Need Exercise, ard Activity
and Proficiency Go Hand in
Hand-Make Them Scratch.

Every poultry writer in the land has
told his readers day in and day out
that exercise is necessary for the well
being and well doing of laying hens
There is good sense and sound ycl-
sen in this advice. While al work auG
no play makes Jack a dull boy. no
work and idleneSs makes a good her
a non-producing loafer. Fowls need
plenty of exercise. When given their
liberty they will wander for miles over
the fields and hunt and die for bugs
and seeds and that is the time they
lay the most eggs. The lazy hen is
never the laying hen. Activity and
proficiency so hand in hand II is,
however, a sore trial to the poultry
keeper to keep his hens active in Win
ter. The tendencies are entirely to-
ward sluggishness upon the part OF
the fowls. Inactivity brings its own
penalties. No animal organism can
maintain health and viriliiy without
exercise. Such is not in the line Gf

Answer to question No. 1S.-The
Republican Senators left the state
and went to Cincinnati because the
Watson-Chilton combine had filled
the towns with thugs. and strong-arm
men, including the notorious Pat
Crow. They did not leave from per-
sonai fear. but they left because they
did not want riot or blodshed. When
they returned from Cincinnati, l had

mously requested me to accept 1t.
accepted the position at the request
of my fellow Republicans. and their
action was ratified by the unanimous
vote of the Democrats in the body.
Answer to question No. 19-It is
fashionable for Democratic politicians
to try to mislead the people in the
northern end of the state by point
ing out the large Republican vote in
the southern tier of counties. A glance
at the government census will show
the great increase in population in
that region. Mcdowell county in 1910
had over $4,000 people-the Increase
for the decade had averaged over
5000 a year. The increase has not
abated, and the population now must
be nearly $4,000. Considering that
thousands of those people are miners
and have no families. the per cent of
voters is not high to the population.
In Mcdowell county there are, at
least, $1,000 voters, of which eighty
per cent of whom are Republicans.
At the primary about sixty-fve per
cent OF the Republican votes in the
county were cast. l believe that in
every county in the southern part of
the state the votes were honestly cast
and counted at the recent primary
election.
However. II You eliminate every
county south of the Great Kanawha
river, and take the votes of the re-
naming counties of the state, would
still be the nominee of the Republi-
can party for governor. Two of the
greatest counties among those having
the largest colored vote, Fayette and
Kanawha, were not carried by me
in the primary.
Answer to question No. 2O.-No, it
is not true. While 1 was member
of the county court the number of
licensed saloons in Mcdowell county
decreased, although the population
in that period increased at least

B WAYS To RUN
CITY SUGGESTED
Only Two Speakers at Cham
Der of Commerce Dinner Fa-
vor Proposed Tax Raise.

If nine OF the leading political and
business men of Atlanta were given
free rein with the city government at
the same time there would be eight
different systems of business manage
ment. That fact was demonstrated last
night at the Chamber of Commerce
dinner. held to discuss Atanta's finan-
cial problem only two of the nine
speakers believed in raising the tax
rate Ia per cent. Each of the other
seven had remedy Endorsed by him
self alone.
Judge John S Gambler and Alex W.
Smith advocated the tax rate increase:
Eugene r. Black believes in greater
efficiency among city employees; Judge
Hillyer believes in discriminating APP
portionment of funds F. A. Quillian
wants the tax rate increased, the as
sessments lowered, so as to stop pay
ing so much to the state; E. V. Car
ter advocated a spec al school tax:
General A j. West wants commission
government, and V. H. Kriegshaber be-
lieves in civil service examinations for
city employees
1t is doubtful if a more representa-
tive body of men could be assembled
An that at the dinner last night and
it is certain that d no wider diversity
Of opinion could exist among the lead
ers of Atlanta as to the solution of
Atlanta's financial problem
Judge Gambler opened the argument
by detailing what Atlanta needs.
What are you going to do about it?"
he asked as he sat down, Some of the
things Atlanta urgently needs. he said,
are three fire stations, more police
men. improvements for hospitals, moro
schools and teachers. more sewers, bet
ter streets, bridges. cyclorama, audito-
rum improvements and other things he
said he could barely mention.
Eugene r. Black. in answering Judge
Gambler. advocated a bond issue whe6
more money is needed by the city, but
declared that the burden upon the peo-
Pile is as great as they can bear. "A
maximum income and minimum eff
cheney" was the way he characterized
the situation.
The other speakers all advocated inn
mediate improvement in the Atlanta
streets, but each developed some new
need of the city, until at last it seemed
that Atlanta should be wiped out and
made all over again. More than 300
citizens were present and all believed
that the meeting would mark a new
era in civic advancement President
Wilmer L. Moore, of the Chamber OF
Commerce presided.
