BREWERS FACING HARD TIMES
President Sehaefer at Recent
New York Convention.

For many years, in their national
and state conventions, brewers have
always opened their proceedings with
congratulatory announcements of the
satisfactory increase in their trade
But there was nothing especially OPP.
timistic in the address of the presi-
dent Of the New York State Brewers
association. delivered at its last an
nual convention in New York City.
It's somewhat dolorous reference to
the fact that the liquor interests were
not dealing with a theory, but with a
real condition, namely, that 100000
people in this enlightened country
have prohibited locally or otherwise
the traffic in alcoholic averages. indi-
Gated quite the contrary. The New
York Times calls attention to the fact
that President Schaefer did not for a
moment indulge in the familiar asser-
lions as to the inefficacy of prohibi.
ton, but instead, exhorted his hearers
to fight both it's maintenance and its
extension by the use of only one argu-
ment-an appeal to the material inter
ests of the producers and manufacture
ers who sell what they raise or MAKE
to breweries and saloons.

CONTROL OF LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Col. Maus Gives His Views on Right
to Regulate or Prohibit Sale of
Alcoholic Beverages.

Col. l.. Mervin Maus Of the y. S.
army medical corps before the Ma
tional Association of Military Sur
geons, said:
Governments, states, counties and
municipalities have legal right to
regulate or prohibit the sale Of alce-
holic beverages just the same as they
have the right to prohibit the commn-
nifty against malignant diseases of per
nicious narcotic habits. Everywhere
the liquor traffic is subject to control
and the legitimacy of such laws have
been sustained by the highest courts.
Only recently the war department
has issued an order depriving officers
and enlisted men of pay while on sick
report or unable to perform duty as a
result of diseases and conditions con-
tracted through drinking or other vi
cious practises.
In view of it's temporary and perma-
nent disabling and disqualifying ef
fects, both on the mind and body, let
us hope that the government may
soon see the wisdom of prohibiting the
use Of alcohol among officers of the
military and naval forces and officials
and employees of the civil service.

BRAHMAs AS EGG PRODUCERS
Veteran Poultry Judge and Breeder
Claims That. Hen viii Lay $50
During Course of Year.

Speaking of the Brahma type of
fowls, that veteran poultry judge and
widely known breeder, Mr.. l. K. Fetch
says: 1t has been my claim, and it
can be substantiated, that the Brahma
will lay $50 eggs in a year, and hatch
and rear brood of chickens.
What one hen may have done is no
criterion of a flocks proficiency, not
withstanding one Brahma did lay 313
eggs in 333 days, but laid no more
that year, yet repeatedly have fiocks
of eight fowls laid between February
! and June 1, four months, an average
of 88, 8812, SO, and during May laid
o total of 200 eggs, and average Of Is
each for that month. ] think there
are many Brahmas that have reached
200 eggs in a year as any other breed.
chickens places them among the best
and most profitable of all breeds. At
this writing ] have hen that aver
aged IS eggs between February 1 and
June 1, that | set May %. She has
Matched and reared a brood Of chick
ems and has laid rs eggs in nine
months, leaving her three months for
| the chance of becoming a 200-egg hen,
like one of her ancestors, Queen
Quality. But breeders prize any hen
that matches and rears a brood of
chicks and gives you $50 eggs as a
years work. Such are capable of earn
ing you $40 profit per annum II they
| are thoroughbreds, and nearly that as
| utility workers in Natick.
Keep strict account of the expense
OF feeding if you want to know how
much profit they bring you. The aver
age price for kitchen eggs, fresh, in
Natick for 1910 was 371s cents. Every
| 150-egg hen at these prices earned,
as you see, s4.69 cash, less $1.25 for
| keep, leaving $S.44 net profits per hen.
With the pure stock in Brahmas,
Plymouth Rocks and Orpingtons or
| Wyandottes this is obtainable with in
telligent care. Thus are we justified
in saying that poultry upon the farm
is the best earning power in agricul-
ture. =

PASSING OF OLD statesmen
staggering Joke Teller Has Been Re-
placed by Modern Clean-Cut, Bust
ness-Like Gentleman.

Gone forever is the staggering,
joke telling salesman--he with the
whisky breath and the cigarette-stain-
ed fingers. His place has been taken
by the clean-cut, business-like gentle
man, who makes his sales, not by
treating, Joking and story telling, but
by craftsmanship. or brains intelligent
ly applied. The change is, of course,
a credit to the craft, due to the in
roads of advanced education.
The former type in truth, did not
drink because they liked it, but be-
cause 1t was tool Of the trade. Some
drank, 1t is true, like the Chinaman,
who exclaimed, after he bought a
quart Of fiery, execrable, cheap whis
ky: Me no drinkee for drinkee; me
drinkee for drunkee." Most statesmen
did not drink for pleasure; they drank
for business, but the world do move"
Civilization has caused this class TO be
tabooed in all good business circles,
and the man who dissipates soon finds
himself on the scrap heap of men. To-
day few men even who sell whisky,
drink. This proves conclusiVely it
need not be drinker to sell the goods,
but a thinker.-Mail Order Journal.

BoNEMEAL GOOD FOR SWINE
Very Good Results Secured at Missou-
ri Station-Result of Test at
Nebraska Station.

All kinds of bonemea1 are used in
the manufacture of fertilizers, but
not all kinds are suitable for feed for
swine. Bonemeal from glue factory
which has gone through the process
in which acid was used is not suitable
feed. But any bonemeal, especially
green bone, that is ground finely
enough, may be fed. Steamed bone
meal is good
At the Missouri station bonemeal
was fed with very good results. About
an ounce of meal was fed to each hog
per day.
At the Nebraska station four lots of
pigs were fed to determine the value
of wheat short, tankags and steamed
ground bone as supplemental to corn
meal. The hogs we're pastured On
alfalfa, and for this reason the lot fed
on corn alone made about as salts
factory gain as any, although the lot
which was fed bonemeal in addition to
the corn had the strongest bone.
Shorts strengthen the bone some,
and tankage with corn produced
much stronger bone than corn alone
Where mixed rations were given, or
skim milk or good pasture, all OF
which supply ash material, it is doubt
full that bonemeal is of much value
other than for the purpose of strength
ening the bones.

REMEMBER ON BAKING DAY
Little Things That Appear Small Of
Themselves, but Go Far to Max
ing Success or Failure.

While cooling, newly baked bread
should be lightly covered with clean
cloth or paper to prevent mold germs
and dust falling upon it. but it should
never be tightly wrapped in a thick
cloth, for, unless it is aired when tax
en- from the oven, it is likely to be-
come soggy and damp, and this offers
an excellent medium for the growth
of molds. Place the bread. when cold.
in a tin box or stone jar, which should
be scalded out every week, aired,
and thoroughly dried. Never put por-
tions of former baking with the
new loaves. -
Always save bread crusts, dry
them well, put them through the meat
chopper, and sift first through a wire
basket and then through sieve.
This will give three grades. Place
them in covered jars, use the coarsest
moistened with milk for stufing fish
or poultry, the medium for puddings,
ETC., and the finest for rolling GRO
Quette mixtures. Do no try to use
dry biscuits or butter toast in this
way.

SOME ESSENTIALS
FOR A GOOD LAWN
Begin TO Now Grass as Soon as
1t Begins to Grow--Use
Clippings as Mulch.

To have a good lawn, as the grass
begins to grow NOW 1t often. Abandon
the notion that moving grass will kill
it: it will do nothing of the kind.
Frequent moving. two or three
times a week, will keep down thick
places and allow thin places to assert
themselves.
Do not rake the lawn clippings un-
less your lawn soil is exceedingly
fertile. Save the extra work, and allow
the clippings to lie on the ground for
mulch and fertilizer.
Lawn clippings are splendid green
feed for poultry confined in pens. but
when they are taken from the lawn an
equivalent fertilizer should be re-
turned-at some time
When the lawn mower gets dull do
not take it to the shop to- be sharp
ened but adjust and tighten the bolts
or tension at the bottom or either end
OF the bar, so that the revolving blades
ring sharply against the, bottom hori-
zontal cutting blade. This will make
the mower sharpen itself in turning.
Almost all lawn movers are con-
structed for self sharpening. When
the tension is tight it requires just q
little more force in pushing. but it
cuts; it can't help It'll. H. Shepard.

The first warm days lure the enthusi-

no use forcing things in the open
ground until it is warm and dry
