Restrictions on Auto Driving.

Aaron II. Grout, states attorney for
Orleans county, has taken action which
might be followed to advantage by the
prosecutors in other counties throughout
the state, in view of the general opening
Of the automobile season at an early
date Mr.. Grant serves notice on all OPP
orators that cars must bear the 1914
registration number, and that any paste
board or home made number plates will
not save them from the liability to ar
dest. All cars must display two lighted
lamps in front and one in the rear, at all
times on the highway, whether standing
or running, after as minutes after sun
down and before as minutes before sun
rise. Mr.. Grant announces that all yio-
lations of these laws which are reported
to him will result in prosecutions, and
he asks motor car owners TO bear in
mind the fact that the law is as much
in force now as it will be next summer.
1t has always been the practice OF some
owners to begin running their cars in
the spring without thought of license
number until later in the season.

One Big Express Co. Finally surrenders

The news that the United States Ex-
press company. prosperous for sixty
years, has decided to liquidate its bust
ness in order TO save its assets, in the
face of the competition OF the parcel
post, will be received with unmixed joy
in many quarters. II will be cited as an
evidence of the success of the govern
ment in doing business-by sending a
competitor to the serapheap. The pic
tured profits of the past, from which
the stockholders of this company are
now deprived, will seem readily trans
lated into grains for the dear people.
And all the undiseriminating will be
happy.
But the express company's loss is not
necessarily a peoples gain. The cost Of
operating business may be different in
different hands. Illustrations of this

When any breeder has combined the
two. utility and fancy, he has valuable

or day-old chicks. will be higher than
from the utility breeder who has not
combined the two, hut who has a good
producing flock. 1t is not to be inferred
that all who raise poultry are to become
fanciers, or will combine the two In the
highest order 1t is, however. true that
the cry against the so-caled fancy has no
solid foundation and that there is as much
merit in a standard bred bird with good
shape and feathers and backed by egg
production as In the so-callcd utility bir.:,

PROVEN IN LAYING CONTEST
The report from the director of the
State Poultry Experiment Station. which
is holding great laying contest in Mis-
souri,. and who Is an expert poultry man
or years experience, states they have
doubled the egg yield by careful selection
In three years time. Another thing, it
does not mean that you must entirely
disregard shape and color to breed a good
laying strain of any variety
One of the contestants in the Buff Leg
horn class from Michigan entered his
birds in a good poultry show two weeks
before the contest began last year. II
was found that some of his highest scor-
ing pullets and some of those which won
the highest honors in the showroom were
also those which have made the highest
records in the contest by laying the great
est number Of eggs His pen was fine in
color and shape, rs well as leading when
1t came to the egg basket
OF course, 1t is well known that after
"A pullet or hen has laid large number
or eggs, 1t tells on its appearance. for the
time being at least. but that does not
mean that these birds will never be in
show condition again or that their prog

won in the contests of that country and is
also making good record here. We are
quite certain OF one thing, 1, e., 1t is not
necessary to breed flock of mongrels for
them to be satisfactory layers"
In the above official records from :,

private one, where records and data are |
above reproach, one can see that utility |
