quite frequently forced by condi-
ments, meat and other highly slim
ulating articles Of food.
While it will, in many cases,
produce the eggs, it will at the
sarue time bring about an early de-
cline. But by working for a
strong winter crop we get the
bulk Of our eggs at a certain sea-
son and the hen has the rest of the
season to recuperate.
Another method adopted by
some of those ambitious for great
results, is to hatch the eggs from
one or more phenomenal layers and
mate up the offspring, brothers
and sisters, and repeating for two
or three years.

has been to each year pick out his
best hens to breed from. These

characteristics of the breed, but al

T~rap-nests have been the guide,
aud these are used as a rule from
January Ist to June Ist. And again
from October Ist to the end of the
year. Occasionally they are used
in some pens the entire year, but
that is done only where a special
lest is made of a new selection or a
ucw breed.
What we mostly wish to know is
not how many eggs a hen will lay
in a year, but how many she will

of eggs are the highest. From the

TURKEY DINNER

R. L. Bake Has Arranged Dinners for Elderly Men Unable to Buy

The best holiday trade he has ever had in the twenty-five years he has been in business in Phoenix has filled R. L. Bake of Balke's Big CuriO Store with the Christmas spirit which he has destined to give full play on Christmas He has arranged for the feeding Of the multitude at the Golden Rule Chop House On that day no man in Phoenix over the age of fifty need go hungry If he has not money to buy a Christ mas dinner for himself he may go to Balke's Big Curio Store where he will receive an order for a Turkey dinner, followed by a good cigar.
 MT. Bake has no idea how many dinners will be required, but there will be orders for as many as call at the Big Curio Store on Christmas. The store will be open till noon of that day for the purpose of issuing orders. It will be assumed that those who have not called by that time of the day will not be hungry and MT Bake will then go to his own Christmas dinner which he will enjoy in the belief that every hungry man in Phoenix has been fed.
