SEE EGGS SOLD
ARE NOT TAINTED
Farmers Should Realize Value of
Furnishing Only the Best
to Consumer

Tne average purchaser of eggs vs.
very often in doubt as to the fresh
ness of the supply offered him. He
knows that in each dozen of eggs pur-
chased he may get a certain num-
Der of bad ones and therefore esti-
mates their value accordingly. This
uncertainty as to the unreliability Of
the egg supply has worked to the det-
riment of the egg industry and is the
principal reason why the farmer, at
times, is unable to get satisfactory
price for his product.
Should the purchaser be sure or
getting twelve sound eggs in each
dozen purchased the price paid the
FARMER would be advanced. Illinois,
second State in the production of eggs,
has little patience with the person
who wilfully sells bad eggs. That
State has passed some laws to help
the honest, conscientious poultryman
and at the same time protect the con-
sumer The State Food COMMISSIONS er
has issued warning to all concerned,
producers, egg buyers and retailers
that he will see to it that the law is
enforced. If an egg in whole or part
is filthy, decomposed or putrid, in
fected or tainted it shall be deemed
TO be adulterated. The penalty for
violating the law will keep the Illinois
FARMER in hot pursuit of the designing
hen bent on hiding her nest. For the
first offense the punishment will be a
tine of not less than S15 or more than
SlO0 or. in the absence of cash, a
thirty-day Jail sentence. For the sec
ond and subsequent offenses the fine
doubles and the Jail sentence is multi
Piled by twelve.

Be Careful How You
Feed Hens Alfalfa

Alfalfa is very high in crude fibre,
which is practically. indigestible for
fowls, for which reason it's feeding
value is limited. 1t is an excellent
source of bulk in the ration, answers
for green food to some extent and has
enough digestible protein and mineral
matter to give it fair feeding value.
The proportion of alfalfa should not
be increased beyond a total crude fibre
content of " to per cent. beyond
which proportion it will not increase
the egg yield or growth and after
passing 5 per cent. it is liable to cause
inflammation, resulting in digestive
disorders. Alfalfa adds coloring mat
ter to the winter ration and makes
the yolks of eggs yellow.
One OF the best tests of vigor is the
early hatch. The strain that will not
produce fertile eggs and strong, vigor-
Gus chicks in January and February
are lacking in vigor. Heredity, no
doubt plays an important part in the
fertility of eggs. Suppose that you
have used half a dozen male birds
in as many different pens and one of
lHeSe ildle DlTuS gave mucn nlgner
fertility than the others right through
the whole season. The sons of this
bird are very much more likely to
continue this high fertility than are
the sons of the other birds With all
experienced breeders it is the bird
that gives high fertility from January
to June that is priced. providing, of
course, he has the standard require
ments that the breeder wishes to re-
produce. Does it not stand to reason
that a male bird that can fertilize
fifteen eggs out of fifteen is more
likely to stamp his color and shape
on his offspring than a male of low
fertility. Keep your male line un-
broken and If any new blood is to be
introduced, add it through the female
side.
The old idea that the male gave
color and the female shape to the
chicks has been abandoned. To be
sure there are plenty of cases in which
this belief is verified but there are
probably just as many contradictory
instances, so that proof of the claim
is wanting.

UP to last Saturday there were only
II eggs between second and third
places and eggs between third and
fourth places in the six-pen contest.

1t is true that nature and woman's
work has produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is recogniz e d
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health = many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound;
and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.

Who Shall Do the Counting?
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
No. 1.-The Girl Who Makes Demands

in like cases-don't insist! Don't dream
of insisting on anything man does
not choose freely and of his own will
to do!
No man likes to be forced to give
the attention and consideration that
he revels in offering-to the right
woman-as a free gift. If you are
not the right woman you will only
disgust or amuse or anger the man
you are chasing when it is his mascu-
line perrogative and privilege to do
his own hunting.
The girl who is forward cheapens
herself in mans eyes for two reasons:
He feels that she has not the proper
self-respect, and he thinks that she
has not the natural charm that will
cause men to seek her freely. He
does not enjoy being sought by girl
so failing in attractiveness that other
men have not sought her.
But the main reason why women
fail when they try to force the issue
is that all men have a natural stub
borness that makes them enjoy a
struggle for what they get instead of
having it handed to them. A man
actually enjoys a certain amount of
conflict in attaining his hearts desire.
He likes lingering along the pleasant
path of courtship. So when a girl
struts out into the open and demands
either in a businesslike way as her
right, or in a sentimental and clinging
way as her supreme wish that she
have more of his society than he has
seen fit to give her, she antogonizes
all his natural instincts.
The Proper Way
If instead of insisting that her
friend call three evenings a week
but once, l.. NJ. l.. were to suggest
sweetly and pleasantly that perhaps
next Wednesday evening she would be
engaged and another evening later in
the week would do just as well, she
would be far more likely to take on
value in the mans eyes. Then per-
haps he would be the one to insist on
spending more evenings together.
The minute a girl insists on any
thing as her right it ceases becoming
free gift. The minute a girl talks
of rights" and insists on them a man
feels chains And chains gall men.
They like the feeling of freedom. they
like to be generous bestowers of gifts
and not captives chained to chariot
wheels.
Never demand a mans society.
Make yourself so sweet and desirable
that he will demand yours
my next article l will give you a few
suggestions as to how to make your
self desirable.

chase ana the spoils of war at their
feet.
Has our country changed any of
that? Decidedly yes in practice of
living, decidedly no in practice of
loving.
We women go to the offices and the
factories and the stores and work
side by side with men. We go to the
polls and vote with men in some
states and countries and shall do so
in more and more.
Men the Hunters
But because human nature has de-
veleoped and human being express
themselves in new ways does not
mean that human nature has changed.
Human nature has grown along natu-
raj lines. Women have freedom in
work and freedom in play. But men
are still the hunters and conquerors,
and they do not fancy seeing woman
come out in the open as a husband
seeked and mark down the victim she
chooses to hunt.
Every day 1 receive dozens of let
ters from girls who want to know if
they shall "insist" on their men
friends calling a certain number of
times a week. Every day some girl
tells me she wrote three times to
JOull anu lie ulu llol answer, anu
then asks me what she shall do.
Probably she should never have writ
ten the first letter.
Here is a sad little example that is
quite typical of one of the greatest
mistakes girls make:
L. NJ. L. writes: "I am nineteen
years of age and am keeping COM
pany with a boy two years my senior.
We have been together on Wednesday
evenings since December and 1 think
if he loves me as he says he should
come Saturdays and Sundays too. He
objects. Should 1 insist?

Be Sure Hen House Is
Properly Ventilated

Properly lighted houses are essen
tial for successful egg production.
Dark quarters are also conducive to
filth, dampness and disease, and also
lessons egg production because of the
shorter periods in which a hen can
feed. Commercial poultrymen recog-
nize the necessity of abundant light
ing, but the farm poultry house is
usually lacking in this essential. Too
much window space is equally disas-
trous. Such house is subject to eX-
tremes in temperature, due to warm
ing up on sunshiny days and radiating
a corresponding amount of heat at
night. Here the chickens combs be-
come tender and more liable to freeze
than when in quarters of more even
temperature.

The cape is the latest and smartest ef

many forms but none that is better than
the one illustrated which is combined with
a separate waistcoat. The waistcoat por-
tion is fitted by means of shoulder and
under-arm seams but is half loose, never
theless, held by means of belt. The cape
can be made longer with openings for the
hands or shorter without the openings.
The long cape is adapted to golf, to
travel, to outdoor occasions of the kind.
The shorter cape is liked for an evening
wrap. For the former would be used
simple cloth of the sturdy sort withfancy
material of stable quality for the waist
coat For the evening cape, either satin
or brocade in light color is correct with
the waisfcoat and collar of plain white
or of br&caded silk as liked. However
treated, tie coat is an eminently graceful
one and thoroughly practical as well. 1t
and the waistcoat are made separately
but are tackled together beneath the
collar.
