EARLY EXTRA SESSION

Trenton. N. il, Dec. "a congress
probably will be called into extraordi-
nary session by President Woodrow
Wilson shortly after his jnaguration,
perhaps on March Is. and tho particu-
lar legislation that will come before
be tariff revision.
After two hours conference with
Speaker Clark, the president-elect de-
ciared today that he would endeavor
TO meet the wishes ofthe democratic
leaders In congress who, he was in.
formed, we're anxious that the inter-
val between the two sessions Of con-
gress be as brief as possible.
While the speaker said the time of
the present congress would be con-
sumed by appropriation bills, leaving
the bulk Of the democratic platform
pledges TO the new congress, he con-
Cured with Mr.. Wilson that the tar
i'll should be the foremost subject to

Excellent Poultry Hints.

Here are q few hints to those who
are in the business Of raising market
poultry: Market the roos.ers sepa-
rately. Aim to attract the eye OF the
buyer. Have regular market days.
Try to build up reputation for prime
stock. Grow bone and muscle first,
and then fatten. Big combed broilers
are apt to be wrongly classified in
market. Always notify your commits
sion merchant before shipping. Young
fowls shipped with old stock will COM
mand old stock prices. Poultry should
be killed the day before marketing
when going direct to the consumer.
Do not mix white-skinned chickens in
the same shipment with yellow
skinned ones. Have tag fastened on
each fowl your send to market. It is
the best way to advertise your stock.

MORN|N' SILAS,
GREETING FOR
SHRINERS
Dallas, Texas, Making Plans to
Welcome Thousands 'of
Mobiles Next Year i

DALLAS, Texas, Dec. 3.-"Mornin
Silas" is the slogan of Shriners OF
North America for 1918. This saluta-
ton for the thousands who will as
semble in Dallas next May for the
Imperial Council meeting has been
formally adopted by the executive
committee of Hella Temple. Members
of the committees in charge of ar
rangements for the entertainment of
the Masonic visitors are progressive,
far seeing and intelligent men, men
of high order of executive ability,
who we're picked on account of their
recognized prominence, their knowl-
edge of Texas as we'll as the great
order they represent.
Fourteen years ago Dallas, then a
city of less than forty thousand in
habitants, entertained the Imperial
Council meeting. That meeting made
memorable by lavish entertain
ment, advertised Texas from ocean to
ocean and from Canada to Mexico.
Texas Shriners are now known from
ocean to ocean and Texas has a re-
putation for doing things on a large
scale Expecting an even larger at
tendance than that recorded at Los
Angeles this year. local Shriners pro-
mise to make this coming meeting
next May red letter event in the
history of their order.
II. B. Robertson, chairman of the
committee on entertainment of pa
trolls and bands, declares some of the
best drilled men in America will pass
in review before the. Imperial Poten-
tate in the grand parade which will
feature the Imperial Council meeting.
He is expecting to entertain at least
90 patrols, the very cream of the
worlds Shrinedom, and twenty-five to
thirty Shrine bands. Band music, he
says, will be one of the big features
this year Hella Temple has organ
lied a band and this body of must
clans will be kept constantly prac-
ticing from now until next May. A
splendid round of entertainment is be-
ing arranged for the patrols and
bands.
Dallas is expecting not less than
100 de luxe Shrine specials next May.
Information from the various railroad
lines indicate that at least this num-
Der of special trains will arrive the
