1t must go for the necessities. Most
of the poultry breeders are not
rich but moderately well to do,
and they depend upon their own
labor for their support. These peo-
pie, knowing their slender incomes
may be made more slender by the
stringent times, very naturally
turn to poultry keeping for a part
of their support if they have spare
time in which to look after pouI-

They are not looking for fancy things,
but are looking for bread winners. They

the list of our thoroughbreds, and at the same
time their beauty points are not lost sight of In
flush times, when business is booming and money
plentiful, both kinds of fowls sell well, the prac-
teal and strictly fancy breeds; when hard times
come, as they do periodically, the fowls bred pri-
marily for their beauty sell slowly, while those
bred for their usefulness sell readily"
In view of this fact. is it not the part of wis

business to begin with practical fowls and to make
them his sole and his principal source of poultry

fowls that ne feels he can not be happy without,

HARVESTER TRUST
and Steel PARTED
Divorce Occurred Five or Six
Years Ago, Says Former
President Farrell

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.--James A.
Farrell president of the United States
Steel corporation, surprised the Stanley
steel trust" investigating committee
today with the statement that the
steel corporation and the international
Harvester company have had no busf-
ness dealings with each other for five
or six years.
The information, coming on the eve
of a proposed congressional investi-
CATION OF the harvester company, in
which 1t will be sought to show as
one existing condition that the har-
vester company and the steel corpora
tion had interlocking directors and
that the latter gave rebates to the
former on steel, was surprising.
Among the directors of the United
States Steel corporation are Ebert III.
Gary. George r. Baker, George w.
Perkins and Norman B. Ream. all of
whom are directors of the International
Harvester company. Gary is chairman
of the board of the United States Steel
CORPORATION and Perkins is chairman of
the finance committee of the Interna-
tional Harvester company.
