There has been some little trouble in

Brewster.s Millions.

"Brewster's Millions" which comes
to the Metropolitan tonight is the re-
suit Of a unique and original idea.
Most people find It a task to accumu-
late a million dollars in a year
strange as it may seem in these days
of endless-chain fortunes-but Mon
ty" Brewster has the rather hilarious
occupation Of spending that amour in
twelve months. On this idea the play
was founded. 1t is carried through
four acts with increasing action and
amusing situations. the great climax
coming in the third scene with the
great yacht. and sea-storm effect. a
piece OF stage realism that has been as
much discussed as the play itself.

PROGRAMMED IS FOREWARNED.

The greatest menace that confronts
the poultrymen is the attacks of lice.
This enemy OF the poultry yard ex-
plains more disease and poor egg
records among poultry than all others
combined. Whenever the fowls are
not doing we'll, look for lice.
Not long since our attention was
called by beginner who complained
to us that her May Matched chicks
we're hard for her to raise. She said
81 can hatch them all right but they
just stand around and sleep their
lives away" We went to her poultry
yard and found about 100 chicks a
week or ten days old. They we're
truly sleepy looking chicks. Picking
up one of them we parted the down
on the neck and by the aid of small
magnifying glass, just under the
lower beak we found large mass Of
move but very little and buTrow into
the skin. There we're hundreds OF
them on the chick we picked up. We
her to look at it. She was unable to

was new feathers coming out. We
then took the chick, picked off a
bunch of what the lady thought was
pin feathers, laid them on the glass
and it was soon a crawling mass. 1t
was no wonder that she said: "Good
gracious, | don't wonder they got
sleepy
Now, the point is that many people
think that late spring chicks will not
live, when, as a matter OF fact, chicks
that are Matched in May should be
examined almost daily especially
where they are Matched under the
hens. They should be busted with
good insect powder or use head lice
ointment at least once every week

Getting Rid of Plant Lice.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis, Oregon, May II. Plant lice
are playing havoc with rose bushes
currants and various garden crops at
this season and A. L.. Lovett, assist
ant entomologist at the Oregon Agri-
cultural College has prepared direc-
tions for recognizing and getting rid
of the pest.
On currant bushes the work of the
lice at present appears as irregular
gals on the leaves, discolored deep
reddish hue. On the under side of
the leaf are found many small. pale
green, soft bodied insects with their
beaks inserted in the plant tissue,
busy sapping the plant juices. On
the roses the lice are found about the
stems of the leaf and flower buds.
Later the flowers will be misshapen
and smaller than normal.
A contact spray should be used and
its effectiveness depends entirely on
it's being used thoroughly in such a
way that it actually reaches the body
of the insect. "Black Leaf 40'' a
commercial preparation for sale in all
railroad towns is perhaps the best for
lice. Directions are on the can. 1t
may also be used diluted in 800 parts
water with half a pound of soap added
for every ten gallons of the solution.
Whale oil soap is best, but common
laundry soap will do. 1t should be
shaved fine and dissolved in hot water
first.
Another solution is the kerosene
emulsion spray. Half a pound Of
hard soap is dissolved in gallon OF
boiling water and when removed from
the fire two gallons OF kerosene is
stirred in. A hand pump is best for
mixing it, the solution being drawn
through the hose and back into the
container again until it is creamy
white. After diluting it with fifteen
gallons of water the plants should be
wet with it; especial care being taken
to reach the under sides of the leaves
where the lice are found.

until the chicks are at least four
weeks old. If lice are on the chicks
they should be busted every three or
four days for two or three weeks.
We must begin from the first day
of the chicks life and fight lice and
other enemies from that day until we
part with the grown fowl.
Mr.. Poultryman, do you think that
the fancier who takes the ribbons at
the shows ever permits his chicks or
grown fowls to live in lice and filth?
Lice and chickens cannot thrive
together. With plenty of reliable lice
powders and lice killers at hand there
is really no excuse for having lousy
chicks which cause the greatest

ABOUT GOOD ROADS.
To The Ranch {:

times are good, macadamized. the
better, but paved roads are the best.
Good roads cheaper the cost of trans
portation and travel. They save
horse flesh, fuel and implements OF
transportation. We are able to build
good dirt roads in this state but we
are not populous enough at present
to macadamize our roads.
We have only about two taxpayers
to the mile of road as per the United
States survey. At So, 600 per mile for
macadamized roads it would cost the
taxpayers on an average of "a, OOO
each. To macadamize one fourth Of
our roads would cost the taxpayers
on an average of 81, 600 each.
Massachusetts has about thirty-six
taxpayers to each mile of road. Sup
posing two miles of road to each Sec
tion of land. She has thirty six men
to build a mile while we have two per
mile. We readily see that the thickly
settled states is no criterion for US.
Now since we are not able to raise
one fourth OF our roads to the standard
of macadam, it is safe to say that we
cannot macadamize any under present
laws without doing an injustice to
the majority of the people of the
state.
Those people living in the vicinity
of macadamized roads at present are
privileged class.
You cannot put your hand IN
another mans pocket and take out
money for your benefit without in.
fringing upon his rights; unless the
other man is benefited equal to the
amount taken, although the law gives
you the privilege.
To do such is legalized robbery.
Any community that takes from the
state treasury ST. 900 or even So, 600
per mile of macadamized road is
legalized robber.
All laws whether county, state or
nationaD that permit one an to rob
another should be repealed. 1t any
community Waits mdCdudLuiAou
road, the only just plan to fall upon
to get it, is to defray the expenses,
except insofar as the state and county
in general is benefited. 1t is hard to
conceive that the state is benefited to
the extent of even 10 per cent of the
cost OF such roads, without associat-
ing the idea that it stimulates public
improvement. The benefit arising to
the county from such roads can not,
so far as | can see, exceed 20 per
cent of the cost The state should
not have to maintain these roads.
Should the state give a community
or an individual the privilege of en-
riching himself from the public
treasury and then because he avails
himself of such privilege. grant him
pension for life?
Should the state furnish me half
the m oney to build barn provided |
would build fine one) and because l
avail myself of this form of robbery,
keep the barn in repairs always, just
for the sake of stimulant to public
improvement?
The state can not any more furnish
money to build macadamized roads in
thickly settled communities than it
can furnish it for paving streets of
